The various embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Example 1

[0022] Please see Figures 1 to 6 The present invention preferably provides the following technical solution: a flipping device for laminated glass production, comprising: two assembly brackets 111; a flipping bracket and a drive rail assembly disposed on each assembly bracket 111, wherein transmission plates 115 are respectively disposed on opposite ends of the two drive rail assemblies; and a suction cup seat assembly rotatably mounted on opposite sides of the two transmission plates 115. Under the action of the drive rail assembly, the suction cup seat assembly can be driven to move longitudinally, and during the longitudinal movement of the suction cup seat assembly, the flipping bracket can drive the suction cup seat assembly to flip 180° up and down.

[0023] Combination Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 3, the two assembly brackets 111 provided in this application can be assembled with the site environment. Each bracket is equipped with a flipping bracket and a drive rail assembly. Simultaneously, the two drive rail assemblies are rotatably mounted with suction cup seat assemblies via transmission plates 115 to achieve glass adsorption and fixation operations and longitudinal movement. The two flipping brackets are connected to the suction cup seat assemblies. During the longitudinal movement of the suction cup seat assemblies driven by the two sets of drive rail assemblies, the flipping brackets can drive the suction cup seat assemblies to flip 180° up and down. This design is mainly aimed at laminated glass production lines where multiple pieces of glass need to be transferred up and down and flipped to complete the composite assembly process. This application... The set-up flipping bracket and drive rail assembly, together with the suction cup seat assembly for adsorbing glass, can seamlessly connect the up-and-down transfer and flipping operations of glass. This standardized connection process can perform adsorption, upward movement, 180° mid-air flipping, and further upward movement of stacked single glass pieces under a single drive source, as well as the composite assembly process with glass to be processed. This realizes the processization and synchronization of glass production and minimizes ineffective movements. This design not only reduces waiting time between processes (such as personnel coordination), idle travel, and repetitive adjustment movements, but also optimizes the connection of various actions (such as flipping, translation, and alignment assembly), which can bring significant comprehensive benefits, especially for large-size, high-value, and fragile laminated glass.

[0024] Example 2

[0025] In another embodiment of this utility model, each flipping bracket includes a vertical plate 112 fixed to the upper surface of the assembly bracket 111. A transmission groove 117 is longitudinally formed on the vertical plate 112. The transmission groove 117 consists of two straight sections, upper and lower, and a V-shaped section placed in the middle of the two straight sections and communicating with them. A transmission shaft 116 is rotatably installed in the middle of each transmission plate 115. The opposite ends of the two transmission shafts 116 are connected to the suction cup seat assembly. Transmission bars 118 are fixed to the opposite ends of the two shafts. A transmission column 121 installed at the end of each transmission bar 118 away from the transmission shaft 116 extends into the transmission groove 117 and slides within the transmission groove 117.

[0026] Two flipping brackets are respectively mounted on two assembly brackets 111. Each flipping bracket's transmission groove 117 consists of two straight sections, upper and lower, and a V-shaped section located in the middle of these two sections and communicating with them. Simultaneously, two transmission bars 118 have one end connected to the suction cup assembly via a fixed transmission shaft 116, and the other end of each bar has a transmission column 121 extending into the two transmission grooves 117. Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 3, when the drive guide rail assembly drives the suction cup base assembly to move longitudinally, specifically as follows: Figure 2 , 3 When the state moves downward, the drive shaft 116 and drive column 121 first pass through the upper straight section of the drive groove 117 in an upper and lower distributed state. When passing through the middle V-section, as the drive column 121 enters the V-section, the drive shaft 116, which is rotatably mounted with the drive plate 115, is limited by the drive guide assembly, allowing the drive column 121 to flip above the drive shaft 116 and drive bar 118. During this process, the drive shaft 116, which is rotatably mounted with the drive plate 115, can rotate relative to the drive plate 115, realizing a 180° up-and-down flipping process of the suction cup seat assembly. Afterward, when entering the lower straight section of the drive groove 117, the drive shaft 116 and drive column 121 continue to move downward in a lower and upper state, and vice versa.

The slider 114 is also connected to the transmission belt 1193 sleeved on the upper and lower transmission wheels 1192 of the vertical frame 1191. Therefore, when the motor 1194 drives the transmission belt 1193 to move, the slider 114 can move longitudinally, and further realize the longitudinal movement of the transmission plate 115 and the suction cup seat assembly.
