Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sheet metal processing technology, and in particular to a rapid batch flipping device for sheet metal. Background Technology
[0002] In the daily production of mechanical equipment, in order to meet the strength requirements of the overall assembly of sheet metal, a certain number and size of bevels need to be made on the sheet metal to meet the usage requirements after welding. However, the complex structure of the components will affect the position of the bevels on the sheet metal, and even bevels may appear on both sides of the sheet metal thickness direction. At the same time, after the sheet metal is cut, it will be arranged in a certain direction and order, but this randomly selected direction and order is very likely to be inconsistent with the direction and order required during later use.
[0003] Traditional methods typically involve using slings or chains to secure the parts before lifting them. However, this method is not only inefficient and difficult to secure irregular parts, but also poses significant safety hazards, as detachment from the hook or chain can easily lead to personal injury accidents.

[0026] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments:
[0027] See Figures 1-3 The present invention provides a batch rapid flipping device for sheet metal, comprising a base, a support frame 6, a clamping mechanism and four spring buffers 17.
[0028] The base is located at the bottom of the device and is used to fix the support frame 6 and the spring buffer 17. It includes nine support legs 1 of the same length, a square frame 2 and seven support rods 3 of the same length. The bottom of the nine support legs 1 is placed on the ground. The bottom of the four corners and the middle bottom of the front, back and left and right sides of the square frame 2 are all fixedly connected to the top of a support leg 1. The top of the four corners and the middle top of the front and back sides of the square frame 2 are all fixedly connected to the bottom of a support rod 3. The first support rod 4 and the second support rod 5 are fixedly installed inside the square frame 2 near the front and back sides of the square frame. The first support rod 4 and the second support rod 5 are parallel to the front and back sides of the square frame and their ends are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the square frame.
[0029] The support frame 6 is fixedly installed on the top of the base for rotating the clamping mechanism. The support frame 6 has a square structure and is adapted to the outline size of the square frame 2. The bottom of the support frame 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the support rod 3. The middle position of the front and rear sides of the support frame is designed as an upward protruding triangular structure. A rotating shaft 7 is fixedly mounted between the apex corners of the two triangular structures.
[0030] To reinforce the connection between the support frame 6 and the base, a third support rod 8 parallel to the front and rear sides of the square frame and a fourth support rod 9 parallel to the left and right sides of the square frame are also provided inside the square frame 2. The two ends of the third support rod 8 are fixedly connected to the middle position of the left and right sides of the square frame, and the two ends of the fourth support rod 9 are fixedly connected to the middle position of the front and rear sides of the square frame. A support foot 1 is vertically fixed at the bottom of the intersection of the third support rod 8 and the fourth support rod 9. A support bar 10 parallel to the left and right sides of the support frame is provided inside the support frame 6. The two ends of the support bar 10 are fixedly connected to the middle position of the front and rear sides of the support frame, and the bottom of the support bar 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the intersection of the third support rod 8 and the fourth support rod 9 by a support rod 3.
[0031] The clamping mechanism is rotatably connected to the support frame 6 via the rotating shaft 7. It is used to clamp the plate and cooperate with the support frame 6 to flip the plate. The clamping mechanism consists of two sets of U-shaped frames. Each set of U-shaped frames includes two identical U-shaped frames 11. Each U-shaped frame 11 has connecting blocks 12 extending to both sides at its end. The connecting blocks 12 have round holes that match the size of the rotating shaft 7. One of the two U-shaped frames 11 in the same set has its opening facing upwards, and the other has its opening facing downwards. After the connecting blocks 12 at one end of the two U-shaped frames 11 in the same set are fitted together, they are rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 7 through the round holes. The two sets of U-shaped frames are respectively on the same vertical plane as the first support rod 4 and the second support rod 5. Each U-shaped frame 11 has threaded holes 13 extending vertically through its middle part. The threaded holes 13 are equipped with clamping bolts 14 that match the threads. After the connecting blocks 12 at the other end of the two U-shaped frames 11 in the same set are fitted together, they are connected to the fixing rod 15 through the round holes.
[0032] Both ends of the rotating shaft 7 and the fixing rod 15 are provided with through holes on the outside of the U-shaped frame. A detachable locking piece 16 is provided on the through hole to lock the position of the two sets of U-shaped frames.
[0033] A spring buffer 17 is fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the first bearing rod 4 and the second bearing rod 5 to provide cushioning for the clamping mechanism when it falls.
[0034] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0035] Rotate the upper U-shaped frame 11 of each U-shaped frame around the pivot 7 to separate it from the lower U-shaped frame 11. Place the two ends of multiple plates onto the lower U-shaped frame 11 respectively. Rotate the upper U-shaped frame 11 of each U-shaped frame around the pivot 7 to close it with the lower U-shaped frame 11. The fixing rod 15 passes through the round hole on the connecting block 12 of the two U-shaped frames and installs the locking piece 16 to fix the two U-shaped frames. Rotate the clamping bolts 14 on the two U-shaped frames to press the plates together. Connect the chain of the lifting equipment to the fixing rod 15. Start the lifting equipment and pull the fixing rod 15 to drive the two U-shaped frames to rotate around the pivot 7 to the other side of the support frame 6, thereby causing the plates to flip over. During the fall of the two U-shaped frames to the other side of the support frame 6, they come into contact with the top of the spring buffer 17. Under the action of the rebound force of the spring buffer 17, the falling speed of the two U-shaped frames is reduced rapidly to avoid the clamping mechanism and the plates falling too fast, which would aggravate the chain stress and cause the chain to break.
[0036] The present invention has thus far described the technical solution of the present invention with reference to the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that the protection scope of the present invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principle of the present invention, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
