Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of product testing technology, and in particular to a flipping mechanism for product surface testing. Background Technology
[0002] Product testing is a systematic process of verifying a product's quality, performance, safety, and compliance using scientific methods, aiming to ensure that the product meets standards, regulations, or user requirements. It includes quality inspection, functional testing, safety assessment, compliance certification, and environmental reliability testing, commonly employing methods such as laboratory analysis, on-site sampling, and non-destructive or destructive testing. Manual inspection, as a crucial part of product quality testing, is of great significance in ensuring that products meet quality standards.
[0003] When inspecting defects on the surface of a product, manual visual inspection is usually used. However, the shapes of different surfaces of a product vary, and the shape of all surfaces around the outer wall of the product needs to be inspected. Some products are quite long, so when performing flip inspection, it is necessary to manually flip the profile to inspect different surfaces of the profile.
[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors believe that the manual flipping detection method is labor-intensive, wastes a lot of manpower, and leads to a decrease in product detection efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a flipping mechanism for product surface inspection, which solves the technical problem that the manual flipping inspection method is labor-intensive, wastes a lot of manpower, and leads to a reduction in product inspection efficiency.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A flipping mechanism for product surface inspection includes: a frame for supporting the flipping mechanism; clamping plates arranged opposite each other on the frame and slidably mounted on the frame; a lifting assembly mounted on the frame for driving the clamping plates to move up and down on the frame; a clamping assembly mounted on the frame for driving the clamping plates to move towards or away from each other on the frame; and a flipping assembly mounted on the clamping plates for driving the product to flip.
[0008] Furthermore, the lifting assembly includes a sliding plate, which is slidably mounted on the frame. The frame is equipped with a lifting motor and a lifting screw, which is rotatably mounted on the frame. The sliding plate is threadedly connected to the lifting screw. The lifting motor is mounted on the frame, and the output shaft of the lifting motor is connected to the lifting screw.
[0009] Furthermore, the clamping assembly includes a first clamping screw and a second clamping screw, both of which are rotatably mounted on the frame, and the opposing clamping plates are threadedly connected to the corresponding first and second clamping screws.
[0010] Furthermore, a coupling is provided between the first clamping screw and the second clamping screw, and the coupling is connected to the first clamping screw and the second clamping screw respectively; a drive motor is provided on the frame, and the drive motor is used to drive the coupling to rotate.
[0011] Furthermore, the flipping assembly includes a flipping shaft, which is rotatably mounted on the clamping plate. One end of the flipping shaft is provided with a support seat, on which the workpiece is placed.
[0012] Furthermore, the clamp is provided with a sensor, and several sensors are arranged at intervals around the flip shaft. A baffle is provided on the flip shaft, with one end of the baffle connected to the flip shaft and the other end extending towards the side closer to the sensor.
[0013] Furthermore, a rubber pad is provided on the support base, and air holes are opened on the rubber pad. An air channel is formed on the support base, and the air channel communicates with the air holes.
[0014] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects of a flipping mechanism for product surface inspection:
[0015] 1. Place the workpiece to be flipped on the frame between two clamping plates. Then, the clamping assembly drives the clamping plates to clamp the workpiece.

[0023] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0024] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.
[0025] This application discloses a flipping mechanism for product surface inspection.
[0026] Reference Figure 1 A flipping mechanism for product surface inspection includes a frame 1 with clamping plates 2 mounted on it, the clamping plates 2 being arranged opposite each other on the frame 1. A lifting assembly 3 and a clamping assembly 4 are mounted on the frame 1. The clamping assembly 4 drives the clamping plates 2 to clamp the workpiece, and then the lifting assembly 3 drives the clamping plates 2 to move up and down on the frame 1. A flipping assembly 5 is mounted on the frame 1, which drives the workpiece to flip.
[0027] A sliding plate 31 is mounted on the frame 1. The sliding plate 31 is rectangular in shape, and its two sides along its length slide against the frame 1. The lifting assembly 3 includes a lifting motor 32 and a lifting screw 33. The lifting screw 33 is vertically oriented, and both ends of the lifting screw 33 are rotatably mounted on the frame 1. One end of the lifting screw 33 passes through the sliding plate 31, and the sliding plate 31 is threadedly connected to the lifting screw 33. The lifting motor 32 is mounted on the frame 1, and its output shaft is connected to the lifting screw 33. In use, the lifting motor 32 drives the lifting screw 33 to rotate, and during the rotation of the lifting screw 33, the sliding plate 31 rises and falls on the frame 1.
[0028] Reference Figure 2 The clamping assembly 4 includes a first clamping screw 41 and a second clamping screw 42. The axial directions of the first clamping screw 41 and the second clamping screw 42 are parallel to the length direction of the slide plate 31, and the first clamping screw 41 and the second clamping screw 42 are arranged opposite to each other. Both the first clamping screw 41 and the second clamping screw 42 are rotatably mounted on the slide plate 31.
[0029] The two clamping plates 2 correspond to the first clamping screw 41 and the second clamping screw 42, and the two clamping plates 2 are respectively threaded to the corresponding first clamping screw 41 and the second clamping screw 42. When in use, the first clamping screw 41 and the second clamping screw 42 rotate to drive the two clamping plates 2 to move towards or away from each other.
[0030] To improve the ease of movement of the two clamping plates 2, a coupling 43 is provided between the first clamping screw 41 and the second clamping screw 42. The coupling 43 connects the first clamping screw 41 and the second clamping screw 42. During use, if one of the first clamping screw 41 and the second clamping screw 42 is damaged, only one needs to be replaced, thus improving the ease of replacement of the first clamping screw 41 and the second clamping screw 42.
[0031] Furthermore, a drive motor 44 is installed on the frame 1. The drive motor 44 is mounted on the frame 1. A first drive gear 441 is installed on the output shaft of the drive motor 44. A first driven gear 442 is installed on the first clamping screw 41. A first conveyor belt 443 is provided between the first drive gear 441 and the first driven gear 442. The first conveyor belt 443 is sleeved between the first drive gear 441 and the first driven gear 442. In use, the drive motor 44 drives the first drive gear 441 to rotate. The first drive gear 441 drives the first driven gear 442 to rotate through the first conveyor belt 443. The first driven gear 442 drives the first clamping screw 41 to rotate. Due to the coupling 43, the first clamping screw 41 and the second clamping screw 42 rotate synchronously.
[0032] Reference Figures 3-4 The flipping assembly 5 includes a flipping shaft 51, which corresponds to the clamping plate 2. One end of the flipping shaft 51 is rotatably mounted on the corresponding clamping plate 2, and the other end extends toward the side that is close to each other. Furthermore, a support base 52 is installed at the side that is close to each other of the flipping shaft 51, and the workpiece to be flipped is placed on the support base 52.
[0033] To improve the stability of the workpiece on the support base 52, a rubber pad 53 is provided on the support base 52. When the support base 52 is clamped onto the workpiece by the clamping plate 2, the rubber pad 53 deforms. The rubber pad 53 increases the friction between the support base 52 and the workpiece, and the contact between the workpiece and the support base 52 through the rubber pad 53 reduces wear on the workpiece surface.
[0034] Furthermore, the rubber pad 53 has an air hole 531, and the support 52 has an air channel 521. The air hole 531 is connected to the air channel 521. When in use, the external pipeline is connected to the air channel 521. When the support 52 clamps the workpiece, the external equipment draws air, so that the workpiece can be adsorbed on the support 52.
[0035] Furthermore, a sensor 54 is provided on the side of the clamping plate 2 near the flip shaft 51. Several sensors 54 are evenly spaced around the axis of the flip shaft 51. Further, a baffle 541 is provided on the flip shaft 51. One end of the baffle 541 is connected to the flip shaft 51, and the other end extends towards the side near the sensors 54. In use, one end of the baffle 541 passes through several sensors 54. When the baffle 541 passes through a sensor 54 at a specified angle, the flip shaft 51 stops rotating.
[0036] A flipping motor 55 is installed on the clamping plate 2. A second drive gear 551 is installed on the output shaft of the flipping motor 55, and a second driven gear 552 is installed on the flipping shaft 51. A second conveyor belt 553 is installed between the second drive gear 551 and the second driven gear 552. The second conveyor belt 553 is sleeved on the second drive gear 551 and the second driven gear 552. In use, the flipping motor 55 drives the second drive gear 551 to rotate, and the second drive gear 551 drives the second driven gear 552 to rotate through the second conveyor belt 553.
[0037] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
