Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hardware processing equipment technology, specifically a flipping device for hardware processing. Background Technology

[0002] In the hardware processing industry, workpiece flipping is a necessary operation to ensure the smooth operation of multiple processes. Currently, most companies still use manual workpiece flipping, where workers manually move materials from the feeding conveyor belt to the flipping area, flip them, and then place them on the output conveyor belt. This method can only process about 30-40 pieces per hour, resulting in extremely low efficiency. Long-term repetitive, high-intensity labor easily leads to occupational health problems such as lumbar muscle strain among workers, while labor costs are rising year by year, significantly squeezing company profit margins. Furthermore, manual operation makes it difficult to accurately control the force and angle, frequently resulting in scratches and deformations on the workpiece surface, causing the product qualification rate to generally be below 85%, significantly increasing rework and repair costs. In addition, workers face safety hazards such as being hit or injured when handling heavy workpieces or making operational errors, seriously threatening the personal safety of workers. The shortcomings of existing technology highlight the urgent need for automated flipping devices. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the shortcomings mentioned above, this utility model aims to provide a technical solution that can solve the above problems.

[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0019] Please see Figures 1-5 A metal processing turning device includes a workbench 1 and a feeding conveyor belt 2 and a discharging conveyor belt 3 disposed on the workbench 1. A transfer station 4 is provided at the end of the discharging conveyor belt 3. A turning station is provided between the transfer station 4 and the discharging conveyor belt 3. A turning mechanism 5 is provided on the workbench 1 at the turning station. A material picking mechanism 6 is also provided on the workbench 1 to transfer materials from the feeding conveyor belt 2 to the transfer station 4. A transfer mechanism 7 is also provided on the workbench 1 to transfer materials from the transfer station 4 to the turning station to complete the turning and then transfer the materials from the turning station to the discharging conveyor belt 3.

[0020] Furthermore, the flipping mechanism 5 includes a flipping driver 51 fixed on the worktable 1 and a flipping clamping cylinder 52 fixedly connected to the rotating shaft of the flipping driver 51. The clamping fingers of the flipping clamping cylinder 52 extend into the flipping station. The flipping driver 51 can be a motor, a rotary cylinder, or other driving components. It drives the flipping clamping cylinder 52 to rotate through the rotating shaft, thereby realizing the flipping action of the material located at the flipping station.

[0021] Furthermore, the material handling mechanism 6 includes a material handling bracket 61 fixedly installed on the workbench 1. The material handling bracket 61 is provided with a horizontal material handling translation slide rail 62, and a material handling translation slider 63 slidably connected thereto is provided on the material handling translation slide rail 62. A vertical material handling lifting slide rail 64 is provided on the material handling lifting slide rail 64, and a material handling lifting slider 65 slidably connected thereto is provided on the material handling lifting slider 65. A material handling clamping cylinder 66 is installed on the material handling clamping cylinder 66. Driven by the material handling translation slider 63 and the material handling lifting slider 65, the material handling clamping cylinder 66 can move horizontally and vertically, thereby accurately clamping and transferring the material from the feed conveyor belt 2 to the transfer table 4.

[0022] Furthermore, the transfer mechanism 7 includes a transfer bracket 71 fixedly installed on the workbench 1. The transfer bracket 71 has a horizontal transfer translation slide rail 72, a transfer translation slider 73 slidably connected to the transfer translation slide rail 72, a vertical transfer lifting slide rail 74 on the transfer translation slider 73, and a transfer lifting slider 75 slidably connected to the transfer lifting slide rail 74. Two transfer clamping cylinders 76 are installed side-by-side on the transfer lifting slider 75, and the interval between the two transfer clamping cylinders 76 is the same as the interval width between the transfer table 4 and the flipping station. Specifically, as shown... Figure 5 As shown, the two parallel transfer gripping cylinders 76 are transfer gripping finger I 76a and transfer gripping finger II 76b, respectively. In the initial position, transfer gripping finger I 76a is aligned with the transfer table 4, the transfer lifting slider 75 descends, transfer gripping finger I 76a grips the material, and transfer gripping finger II 76b also performs a gripping action. The transfer translation slider 73 moves along the transfer translation slide rail 72 and drives transfer gripping finger I 76a to move the material to the flipping station. After the flipping gripping cylinder 52 clamps the material, transfer gripping finger I 76a releases the material, and transfer gripping finger II 76b also... When the material is released, the flipping driver 51 drives the flipping gripping cylinder 52 to flip the material. At the same time, the transfer lifting slider 75 rises, and the transfer translation slider 73 drives the No. I transfer gripping finger 76a and the No. II transfer gripping finger 76b back to their initial positions. Then the transfer lifting slider 75 descends, the No. I transfer gripping finger 76a grabs new material, and the No. II transfer gripping finger 76b grabs the material that has been flipped at the flipping station. The flipping gripping cylinder 52 releases the material. The above steps are repeated. When the No. II transfer gripping finger 76b clamps the flipped material onto the material conveyor belt, the material is released.

[0023] Furthermore, a feeding detection frame 81 is provided on one side of the feeding conveyor belt 2. The feeding detection frame 81 is equipped with an end-stopping cylinder 82 and an end-material sensor 83 that controls the end-stopping cylinder 82 via signal control. The feeding detection frame 81 also includes an intermittent stopping cylinder 84 and an intermittent material sensor 85 that controls the intermittent stopping cylinder 84 via signal control. The end-material sensor 83 and the intermittent material sensor 85 can detect the position and quantity of material on the feeding conveyor belt 2 in real time. When material is detected reaching the corresponding position, they respectively control the end-stopping cylinder 82 and the intermittent stopping cylinder 84 to achieve orderly blocking and release of material, maintaining a gap between the material at the end of the feeding conveyor belt 2 and the subsequent material, facilitating the gripping mechanism 6 and ensuring the accuracy and stability of the feeding. The end-material sensor 83 and the intermittent material sensor 85 can be infrared sensors, electromagnetic sensors, etc.

[0024] Among them, the material picking translation slider 63, the transfer translation slider 73, the material picking lifting slider 65, and the transfer lifting slider 75 in this utility model can be driven linearly by cylinders, linear motors, screw mechanisms, etc., which are conventional structural designs in this field, and therefore will not be described in detail.
