[0023] The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some embodiments. The embodiments of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown in the figure, this utility model provides an automatic back cover flipping production line, including a machine body 1 and a conveying unit and a flipping unit on its top. The conveying unit includes a feeding conveying component 2 and an unloading conveying component 3 disposed on both sides of the flipping unit, respectively used to convey products to the flipping unit and remove flipped products. The flipping unit is used to pick up products from the feeding conveying component 2 and rotate them to the unloading conveying component 3 on the other side. Both the conveying unit and the flipping unit are connected to a controller (not shown in the figure), and a moving unit is provided at the bottom of the machine body 1. Of course, this utility model is not limited to flipping mobile phone back covers; it can also be applied to other flat products. The feeding conveying component 2 conveys mobile phone back covers one by one to the flipping unit, and the flipping unit flips them and then sends them to the unloading conveying component 3, which conveys the flipped mobile phone back covers to the next process. This utility model can be used in conjunction with auxiliary material machines or cleaning equipment, reducing manual labor and improving work efficiency.

[0025] As a preferred option, such as Figure 1 As shown, the feeding conveyor 2 and the discharging conveyor 3 have the same structure, both including a conveyor belt 4 driven by a conveyor motor (not shown in the figure). The rollers at both ends of the conveyor belt 4 are connected to the machine body 1 through a support frame 5. The upper conveyor belts 4 of the feeding conveyor 2 and the discharging conveyor 3 are arranged in a straight line and in the same plane. The top of the side walls on both sides of the machine body 1 extends above the conveyor belt 4, which can shield the products on the conveyor belt and prevent them from falling off. Given that the back cover of the mobile phone is very light, a small motor can be used for the conveyor motor. In specific applications, the conveyor belts 4 of the feeding conveyor 2 and the discharging conveyor 3 run in the same direction. The back cover of the mobile phone is placed one by one on the conveyor belt 4 of the feeding conveyor 2. After moving to the flipping unit and cooperating with it to complete the flipping, the back cover of the mobile phone falls onto the conveyor belt 4 of the discharging conveyor 3 for output. This assembly line operation can adapt to mass production.

[0026] In specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3As shown, the flipping unit includes a driving component, a rotating shaft 6, and two chucks 7. The two chucks 7 are arranged parallel and symmetrically at both ends of the rotating shaft 6, with the distance between the two chucks being less than the length of the product, to clamp the two ends of the product to be flipped. The two ends of the rotating shaft 6 are connected to the machine body 1, and the driving component is connected to one end of the rotating shaft 6 to drive the rotating shaft 6 to rotate. At the same time, multiple slots 8 are radially provided around the chucks 7, with corresponding slots 8 on the two chucks 7. The length of each slot 8 is not less than half the width of both ends of the product 00, to prevent the product from slipping out of the slot during the rotation of the chucks. The opposing slots 8 on the two chucks 7 are used to clamp the two sides of the product. The back cover plate 00 of the mobile phone moves to the chuck 7 along the conveyor belt 4 of the feeding conveyor component 2. As the chuck 7 rotates, both ends of the back cover plate 00 of the mobile phone enter the slot 8. The back cover plate 00 of the mobile phone rotates upward with the chuck and moves to the side of the discharge conveyor component 3. Then the back cover plate 00 of the mobile phone is in a downward rotating state. The back cover plate 00 of the mobile phone in a tilted state slides down under its own weight and falls onto the lower conveyor belt and is output.

[0027] In specific manufacturing, the number of slots 8 on both chucks 7 is even, allowing the product to move in and out of the chucks roughly synchronously on both sides, ensuring that the forces on both sides of the chucks remain basically balanced. Meanwhile, the driving component is a rotary motor 9, which is mounted on the side wall of the machine body 1. The output end of the rotary motor 9 is connected to the end of the rotating shaft 6, and the other end of the rotating shaft 6 is rotatably engaged with the other side wall of the machine body 1. The rotary motor can drive the rotating shaft to rotate via gear transmission or worm gear transmission; the transmission method can be selected according to the time requirements.

[0028] Further optimize the above solution, such as Figure 2 As shown, a fiber optic sensor 10 is provided on the side wall of the machine body 1. The fiber optic sensor 10 is located at the front end of the loading station of the flipping unit and on the side of the discharge end of the loading conveyor component 2. The fiber optic sensor 10 can be electrically linked with the rotary motor 9. When the fiber optic sensor 10 senses the back cover plate 00 of a mobile phone on the conveyor belt 4, it immediately sends a signal to the rotary motor 9, and the rotary motor starts to rotate the chuck 7. When there are no products on the conveyor belt for a long time, the rotary motor can stop rotating to save power.

[0029] In the specific production process, such as Figure 2 As shown, the side of the machine body 1 is equipped with a switch 11 and a speed control knob 12 for controlling the conveying unit. The forward and reverse rotation and the running speed of the conveying unit are controlled by the switch 11 and the speed control knob 12. The running speed and running direction of the conveyor belt are adjusted according to the work requirements.

[0030] To improve the utilization of internal space, the controller can be installed inside the main body 1, and a toolbox can be installed at the bottom of the main body 1 for easy placement of maintenance tools.

[0031] In specific design, such as Figure 1 As shown, the moving unit includes four casters 13, which are respectively located at the four corners of the bottom of the body 1. Each caster 13 is equipped with a brake 14. The casters facilitate the movement of the equipment to the work site, making it more flexible to use. After arriving at the work site, the brakes can be used to brake the casters to ensure the stability of the machine.

[0032] In summary, this utility model has the advantages of simple and compact structure, convenient operation, and high work efficiency. Products are transported one by one to a rotating chuck via a conveyor belt. After entering the chuck slot, the product rotates to the other side with the chuck and is then output to the next process via the conveyor belt. This utility model uses a controller to control the operating speed and forward / reverse rotation of the equipment, utilizing the cooperation between the conveyor belt and the chuck to achieve assembly line operation, thus improving work efficiency. Furthermore, the use of casters allows for flexible movement to any work location, making its application more flexible. Applying this utility model to batch flipping products improves work efficiency and reduces the workload of workers, making it particularly suitable for mass production.

[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model.
