This method is inefficient, has a complex structure, and also carries the risk of damaging the pages. Utility Model Content

[0023] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand this utility model, the technical solution of this utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] Example 1, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a compact, fast, and non-destructive automatic book-turning machine is described.

[0025] Flipping mechanism 1, which is used to flip the paper;

[0026] Adsorption mechanism 2 is installed on top of flipping mechanism 1 and is used to adsorb the top layer of paper.

[0027] Control mechanism 3 is electrically connected to flipping mechanism 1 and adsorption mechanism 2. Control mechanism 3 is used to detect the load and control the adsorption and flipping system.

[0028] In this embodiment, during use, the control mechanism 3 controls the flipping mechanism 1 to move forward and approach the book, so that the flipping mechanism 1 drives the adsorption mechanism 2 to approach the book page. Then, the adsorption mechanism 2 is controlled to adsorb the book page. After the book page is adsorbed, the control mechanism 3 controls the flipping mechanism 1 to rotate so that the adsorption mechanism 2 drives the paper to turn the page. After the page is turned, the adsorption mechanism 2 is controlled again to make the paper fall off, and the page turning is completed. The above steps can be repeated to continue turning the page.

[0029] Example 2, as Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment adds the following structure to the embodiment 1: the flipping mechanism 1 includes a base 101, a servo motor 102 is mounted on the top of the base 101, the power output end of the servo motor 102 is connected to a rotating arm 103, and a drive rod 104 is mounted on the top of the rotating arm 103.

[0030] In this embodiment, during use, the control mechanism 3 controls the servo motor 102, which drives the rotating arm 103. The rotating arm 103 drives the drive rod 104, which drives the adsorption mechanism 2 to rotate. The control mechanism 3 controls the drive rod 104, which pushes the adsorption mechanism 2 to move back and forth to facilitate page turning.

[0031] Example 3, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment adds the following structure based on embodiment 1: the adsorption mechanism 2 includes a suction cup 201, which is installed on the power output end of the drive rod 104. The suction cup 201 is connected to an air pipe 202, and a protective sleeve 203 is provided on the outside of the air pipe 202. An air pump 204 is connected to the other side of the air pipe 202.

[0032] In this embodiment, during use, the air pump 204 is started by the control mechanism 3, so that the air pump 204 draws away the air between the suction cup 201 and the paper through the air tube 202, thereby allowing the suction cup 201 to adsorb the paper. The protective sleeve 203 can protect the air tube 202 and prevent it from being damaged.

[0033] Example 4, as Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment adds the following structure based on embodiment 1: the control mechanism 3 includes a circuit board 301, which is connected to a first relay 302, a second relay 303, a third relay 304, and a fourth relay 305. The circuit board 301 is also connected to a servo motor 102 and an air pump 204. The first relay 302 and the second relay 303 are connected to a drive rod 104, the third relay 304 is connected to the air pump 204, and the fourth relay 305 is connected to a solenoid valve 306. The circuit board 301, the first relay 302, the second relay 303, the third relay 304, the fourth relay 305, and the servo motor 102 are connected to a 5V power supply 4. The first relay 302, the second relay 303, the third relay 304, and the servo motor 102 are also connected to a 12V power supply 5, and the fourth relay 305 is connected to a 24V power supply 6.

[0034] In this embodiment, the 5V power supply 4 supplies power to the circuit board 301, the first relay 302, the second relay 303, the third relay 304 and the fourth relay 305 respectively. The control signal output by the circuit board 301 controls the on and off of the relays and the rotation angle of the servo motor 102.

[0035] The 12V power supply 5 is connected to the drive rod 104 after passing through the first relay 302 and the second relay 303, supplying power to the drive rod 104. When the circuit board 301 controls the first relay 302 to close and the second relay 303 to open, the two ends of the drive rod 104 are connected to the positive 12V power supply 5, and the drive rod 104 moves forward, approaching the book.

[0036] The 12V power supply 5 supplies power to the servo motor 102. When the circuit board 301 outputs a rotation signal to the servo motor 102, the servo motor 102 rotates a certain angle or stops according to the angle indicated in the output signal of the circuit board 301. The 12V power supply 5 is connected to the air pump 204 through the third relay 304. When the circuit board 301 controls the third relay 304 to close, the air pump 204 connects to the 12V power supply 5 and starts working to pump air and suck up the pages.

[0037] Circuit board 301 detects the power of air pump 204 based on the current when air pump 204 is working, and uses this to determine whether the page is successfully adsorbed. When the paper is detected to be adsorbed, the servo motor 102 is controlled to rotate and turn the page. When the paper is not successfully adsorbed, the power of air pump 204 is increased by controlling the current to increase the suction until the paper is successfully adsorbed.

[0038] When the circuit board 301 controls the first relay 302 to open and the second relay 303 to close, the two ends of the drive rod 104 are connected to a reverse 12V power supply, and the drive rod 104 moves backward, away from the book.

[0039] Example 5, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment adds the following structure to the embodiment 4: the solenoid valve 306 is connected to the suction cup 201.

[0040] In this embodiment, the 24V power supply 6 is connected to the solenoid valve 306 via the fourth relay 305. When the circuit board 301 controls the solenoid valve 306 to close, the solenoid valve 306 opens, and air enters the suction cup 201, causing the suction cup 201 to release the paper. When the circuit board 301 controls the fourth relay 305 to open, the solenoid valve 306 closes. At this time, if the air pump 204 is started, it can remove the air between the suction cup 201 and the book pages and suck up the paper.

[0041] Working principle: First, circuit board 301 indirectly controls drive rod 104 to push suction mechanism 2 forward to approach the book by controlling first relay 302 and second relay 303. Then, by controlling the rotation angle of servo motor 102, suction cup 201 is brought close to the book page. When servo motor 102 is rotated to the correct position, fourth relay 305 is closed, which closes the air inlet of suction cup 201. Then, air pump 204 is started to remove the air between suction cup 201 and the paper, thus adhering to the paper. At this time, circuit board 301 detects the current of air pump 204 to determine whether the paper has been successfully adhering. If the paper is successfully adsorbed, the process proceeds to the next page-turning stage. If the paper is not successfully adsorbed, the circuit board 301 controls the current of the air pump 204 to increase the power of the air pump and increase the suction force on the paper until the paper is adsorbed. Once the paper is adsorbed, the circuit board 301 controls the servo motor 102 to rotate, causing the adsorption mechanism 2 to rotate as well, thus turning the paper. When the servo motor 102 moves to the target angle, the page turning is complete. At this time, the air pump 204 is turned off, and the solenoid valve 306 is opened, allowing air to enter the suction cup 201, causing the paper to fall off, and the page turning is complete. The above steps can be repeated to continue turning the paper.

[0042] When solenoid valve 306 is closed, air pump 204 is activated to hold the book pages. When air pump 204 is closed, solenoid valve 306 is opened, releasing the book pages.

Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model.
