Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of parts flipping tooling, specifically, it relates to a parts flipping tooling for automobiles. Background Technology

[0002] Automotive parts are the foundation of the automotive industry and a necessary factor to support its continued healthy development. In particular, the current vigorous and dynamic independent development and innovation in the automotive industry requires a strong parts system to support it.

[0003] Chinese Patent No. CN220145750U discloses a car parts flipping fixture. Paragraph 32 of the specification discloses that the car parts flipping fixture uses an electric hydraulic rod to control the extension or retraction of the cross sleeve mechanism and the sliding sleeve mechanism, thereby moving two clamping side plates towards each other to clamp the car parts on both sides. By using a servo reduction motor to drive the active rotating shaft to rotate, the clamping side plates, the clamping support mechanism, and the clamped car parts can be flipped.

[0004] However, in the aforementioned automotive parts flipping fixture, when the clamping side plate drives the workpiece to rotate, only the clamping support plate moves in one direction, and there is no obstruction in other directions. This can easily cause the parts to slide between the two clamping side plates due to centrifugal force, resulting in the parts being thrown out between the two clamping side plates.

[0005] In view of this, this utility model is hereby proposed. Utility Model Content

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a tooling for flipping automotive parts.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the basic concept of the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0009] The U-shaped base has a servo motor and a first electric push rod on opposite sides;

[0010] Two positioning mechanisms are provided, each including a U-shaped connecting frame, a connecting strip and a pressure strip that slide vertically within the U-shaped connecting frame, two clamps that slide elastically on the bottom surface of the pressure strip, a transmission strip hinged between the clamps and the connecting strip, and a second electric push rod located on the upper side of the U-shaped connecting frame for driving the connecting strip to slide. One of the U-shaped connecting frames is fixed to the output end of the servo motor, and the other U-shaped connecting frame is rotatably engaged on the output end of the first electric push rod.

[0011] Optionally, a bearing is fixedly sleeved on the output end of the first electric push rod, and a mounting groove is provided on one side of the U-shaped connecting frame, through which the U-shaped connecting frame is fixedly sleeved on the bearing.

[0012] Optionally, the pressure strip has an opening groove on its upper side, and a slider corresponding to the clamp is slidably fitted in the opening groove. The clamp is fixed to the bottom end of the slider. The opening groove is a cross-shaped opening groove structure, and the slider is a cross-shaped block structure.

[0013] Optionally, a spring damping rod is provided on one side of the slider, the spring damping rod is fixed on the inner wall of the opening groove, and the two sliders are fixed between the two spring damping rods.

[0014] Optionally, the U-shaped connecting frame has a T-shaped channel on its side, one end of the connecting strip is a T-shaped plate structure, and one end of the connecting strip is slidably fitted in the T-shaped channel; one end of the pressure strip is a T-shaped plate structure, and one end of the pressure strip is slidably fitted in the T-shaped channel.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art. Of course, any product implementing the present invention does not necessarily need to achieve all of the following advantages at the same time:

[0016] By placing the part between two U-shaped connecting frames, the first electric push rod is activated to drive the U-shaped connecting frames, so that the sides of the two U-shaped connecting frames are in contact with the part. The second electric push rod is activated to drive the connecting strip and the pressure strip to move down.

[0025] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides a tooling for flipping automotive parts, including:

[0027] U-shaped base 1, with a servo motor 101 and a first electric push rod 102 respectively on opposite sides of the U-shaped base 1;

[0028] Two positioning mechanisms 2 are provided. The positioning mechanism 2 includes a U-shaped connecting frame 201, a connecting bar 202 and a pressure bar 203 that are vertically slidably fitted in the U-shaped connecting frame 201, two clamps 204 that are elastically slidably fitted on the bottom surface of the pressure bar 203, a transmission bar 205 that is hinged between the clamps 204 and the connecting bar 202, and a second electric push rod 206 located on the upper side of the U-shaped connecting frame 201 for driving the connecting bar 202 to slide. One of the U-shaped connecting frames 201 is fixed to the output end of the servo motor 101, and the other U-shaped connecting frame 201 is rotatably fitted on the output end of the first electric push rod 102.

[0029] By placing the part between two U-shaped connecting frames 201, the first electric push rod 102 is activated to drive the U-shaped connecting frames 201, so that the sides of the two U-shaped connecting frames 201 are in contact with the part. The second electric push rod 206 is activated to drive the connecting strip 202 and the pressure strip 203 to move down. When the pressure strip 203 is in contact with the part, the connecting strip 202 squeezes the transmission strip 205 to drive the clamp 204 to slide until the two clamps 204 clamp the part. Then, the U-shaped connecting frames 201, the pressure strip 203, and the clamps 204 restrict the part in six directions (up, down, left, right, front, and back) to reduce the probability of the part being thrown out due to rotation. The servo motor 101 is activated to drive the U-shaped connecting frame 201 to rotate, which in turn drives the part to rotate and causes the other U-shaped connecting frame 201 to rotate on the first electric push rod 102.

[0030] To improve the sliding stability of slider 208, please refer to... Figure 2-3 As shown, in this embodiment, a bearing is fixedly sleeved at the output end of the first electric push rod 102. A mounting groove is provided on one side of the U-shaped connecting frame 201, and the U-shaped connecting frame 201 is fixedly sleeved on the bearing through the mounting groove, which facilitates improving the stability of the U-shaped connecting frame 201 rotating at the output end of the first electric push rod 102. An opening groove 207 is provided on the upper side of the pressure strip 203, and a slider 208 corresponding to the clamp 204 is slidably fitted inside the opening groove 207. The clamp 204 is fixed to the bottom end of the slider 208, and the opening groove 207 is... The slider 208 has a cross-shaped opening groove structure, which facilitates the sliding of the slider 208 through the opening groove 207 and improves the stability of the slider 208. A spring damping rod 209 is provided on one side of the slider 208. The spring damping rod 209 is fixed on the inner wall of the opening groove 207. The two sliders 208 are fixed between the two spring damping rods 209, which facilitates the elastic positioning of the slider 208 at its initial position through the spring damping rods 209 and facilitates the spring damping rods 209 to drive the slider 208 to reset.

[0031] Please see Figure 2-3 As shown, the U-shaped connecting frame 201 of this embodiment has a T-shaped channel 210 on its side. One end of the connecting strip 202 is a T-shaped plate structure, and the connecting strip 202 slides in the T-shaped channel 210. One end of the pressure strip 203 is a T-shaped plate structure, and the pressure strip 203 slides in the T-shaped channel 210. This facilitates the sliding of the connecting strip 202 and the pressure strip 203 through the T-shaped channel 210, thereby improving the stability of the sliding of the pressure strip 203.

[0032] Working principle: The part is placed between two U-shaped connecting frames 201. The first electric push rod 102 is turned on to drive the U-shaped connecting frames 201, so that the sides of the two U-shaped connecting frames 201 are in contact with the part. The second electric push rod 206 is turned on to drive the connecting bar 202 and the pressure bar 203 to move down. When the pressure bar 203 is in contact with the part, the connecting bar 202 squeezes the transmission bar 205 to drive the clamp 204 to slide, stretching the spring damping rod 209 until the two clamps 204 clamp the part. Then, the U-shaped connecting frames 201, the pressure bar 203, and the clamps 204 restrict the part on six sides (up, down, left, right, front, and back) to reduce the probability of the part being thrown out due to rotation. The servo motor 101 is turned on to drive the U-shaped connecting frame 201 to rotate, which drives the part to rotate and drives the other U-shaped connecting frame 201 to rotate on the first electric push rod 102.
