Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an aluminum profile processing tool, or more precisely, an automatic flipping mechanism for aluminum profiles. Background Technology

[0002] When processing aluminum profiles, it is often necessary to flip them, which usually requires specialized flipping equipment. This equipment requires additional power, such as a motor. This not only adds extra processing time but also consumes electricity. Utility Model Content

[0018] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] The automatic flipping mechanism 10 of the aluminum profile includes a long strip main horizontal bar 11. The upper surface of the main horizontal bar 11 is provided with a plurality of flipping grooves 12. The flipping groove 12 includes a horizontally arranged base surface 121, a longitudinally arranged lateral vertical surface 122 and an inclined flipping slope 123. The flipping slope 123 forms a preset obtuse angle A with the base surface 121.

[0020] It should be noted that the angle of the obtuse angle A can be set according to the usage requirements.

[0021] In addition, a fixing hole 13 is provided on the upper surface of the main horizontal bar 11 to facilitate the fixing of the main horizontal bar 11.

[0022] The main horizontal bar 11 is made of a flexible material, such as silicone, nylon, or rubber.

[0023] The working principle of the automatic flipping mechanism for this aluminum profile is explained below.

[0024] like Figure 3As shown, the main crossbar 11 is fixed to the bracket 20 using fixing holes 13 and screws. Four aluminum profiles P are fed together above the automatic flipping mechanism 10 by a robot or other conveying equipment. At this time, the state of the aluminum profiles P is as shown in 5(a), with the perforated surface P1 facing left and the non-perforated surface P2 facing up.

[0025] Then, the four aluminum profiles P are released, and the distal ends P3 of the four aluminum profiles P simultaneously contact the upper surface of the main crossbar 11. (As...) Figure 5 As shown by the dashed line in (b).

[0026] Next, as Figure 4 As shown, under their own weight, the four aluminum profiles P rotate clockwise synchronously along direction R until the near end point P4 of the aluminum profile P contacts the base surface 121. Then, all four aluminum profiles P rest inclined against the flipping groove 12, as... Figure 5 As shown by the solid line in (b).

[0027] Next, four aluminum profiles P are transferred from below the main crossbar 11 using a robotic arm or other conveying equipment and sent to the downstream punching equipment. At this time, the punching surface P1 of the aluminum profile P faces upward, towards the punching machine, for punching operations. The non-punching surface P2 faces to the right, avoiding the punching machine.

[0028] like Figure 6 The image shows a reversed schematic of another aluminum profile P, commonly referred to as the C-side-less type.

[0029] The automatic flipping mechanism 10 of the aluminum profile uses the aluminum profile's own gravity to flip it without relying on any power source. It can realize the flipping function at the same time as the aluminum profile is being transported, reducing additional flipping processes and improving processing efficiency.

[0030] Obviously, the embodiments described above are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The accompanying drawings show preferred embodiments of this application, but do not limit the patent scope of this application.
