Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automated production technology, and in particular to a clamping and flipping mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Automated production refers to production using automated technology. It has had a profound impact on human society, most notably by significantly increasing social labor productivity and enhancing humanity's ability to transform nature. Based on the degree of automation, it can be divided into semi-automated and fully automated production. The former involves partially automated technology and partially manual operation in the production process; the latter involves all processes, including feeding, unloading, packaging, and transportation, without direct human intervention, with humans only indirectly supervising the machines.
[0003] Traditional automated production equipment often requires manual intervention during material transfer, making it difficult to achieve high-efficiency operation and reducing material production efficiency. Utility Model Content

The first sprocket and multiple second sprockets are connected by a chain 26. The two ends of the chain 26 are fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the lifting mounting plate 5, respectively. When the second motor 25 is started, the output shaft of the second motor 25 drives the first sprocket to rotate. The cooperation between the first sprocket and multiple second sprockets causes the chain 26 to move. The chain 26 moves the lifting mounting plate 5 up and down, thereby adjusting the height of the two clamping arms 22.
[0029] A rotating shaft 7 is rotatably connected through the side wall of the lifting mounting plate 5. A second power assembly for driving the rotating shaft 7 to rotate is installed on the side wall of the lifting mounting plate 5. The second power assembly includes a first mounting base 9 fixedly connected to the side wall of the lifting mounting plate 5. A first motor 10 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the first mounting base 9. A second drive gear 11 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor 10. A first drive gear 8 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating shaft 7. The second drive gear 11 meshes with the first drive gear 8. When the first motor 10 is started, the output shaft of the first motor 10 drives the second drive gear 11 to rotate. The second drive gear 11 drives the first drive gear 8 to rotate. The first drive gear 8 drives the rotating shaft 7 to rotate, so that the two clamping arms 22 rotate with the material.
[0030] A rotating seat 12 is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating shaft 7. A connecting plate 14 is fixedly connected to the rotating seat 12 via four fixed rods 13. Two sliding plates 15 are slidably connected to the side wall of the connecting plate 14. A second slider 16 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sliding plate 15. A second guide rail 17 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the connecting plate 14. The second slider 16 is slidably connected to the second guide rail 17.

The mounting block 21 is fixedly connected to one of the sliding plates 15. A rotating gear 18 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the connecting plate 14. Mounting racks 19 are fixedly connected to the opposite side of each of the two sliding plates 15. Both mounting racks 19 mesh with the rotating gear 18. When the drive cylinder 20 is activated, the piston end of the drive cylinder 20 moves the mounting block 21, and the mounting block 21 moves one of the sliding plates 15. Since both mounting racks 19 are meshed with the rotating gear 18, the two sliding plates 15 can move closer to each other, and the two clamping arms 22 can move closer to each other.
[0032] Working principle:
[0033] When in use, the second motor 25 is started, and the output shaft of the second motor 25 drives the first sprocket to rotate. The cooperation between the first sprocket and multiple second sprockets causes the chain 26 to move. The chain 26 moves the lifting mounting plate 5 up and down, thereby adjusting the height of the two clamping arms 22.
[0034] Start the drive cylinder 20. The piston end of the drive cylinder 20 moves the mounting block 21. The mounting block 21 moves one of the sliding plates 15. Since both mounting racks 19 are connected to the rotating gear 18, the two sliding plates 15 can move closer to each other, and the two clamping arms 22 move closer to each other. The material is clamped by the two clamping blocks 23.
[0035] Start the first motor 10. The output shaft of the first motor 10 drives the second drive gear 11 to rotate. The second drive gear 11 drives the first drive gear 8 to rotate. The first drive gear 8 drives the rotating shaft 7 to rotate, so that the two clamping arms 22 rotate with the material.
