Description

Technical Field

[0002] The workpiece rotation machine has the function of rotating the workpiece and can flip the workpiece to any angle as required. Usually, the workpiece rotation machine's mold table is clamped by a clamping cylinder, and the workpiece needs to be pressed down manually by inserting a pressure plate above the workpiece through a peripheral rotating cylinder. However, the manual pressing method requires leaving space for manual operation at the end of the equipment, resulting in a large space occupation for the workpiece rotation machine. At the same time, because manual operation is required, the personnel are at greater risk when moving around on the production line, and the product has a low degree of automation, resulting in high labor costs.

[0041] This utility model discloses a flipping machine that can improve the degree of automation and reduce labor costs.

[0042] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0043] like Figures 1-3 As shown in the figure, this application embodiment provides a flipping machine for flipping a part 5 to be flipped. The flipping machine includes a base 1, a rotating device 2, at least one automatic lifting device 3, and an automatic limiting device 4. The rotating device 2 is disposed on the base 1 and is used to drive the base 1 to rotate. The automatic lifting device 3 is disposed on the base 1 and can automatically move relative to the base 1 along the height direction. The automatic limiting device 4 is slidably disposed on the automatic lifting device 3 along a first direction, wherein the first direction is perpendicular to the height direction. In the flipped state, the base 1, the automatic lifting device 3, and the automatic limiting device 4 form a receiving area for fixing the part 5 to be flipped. It should be noted that a detailed schematic of the first direction is shown in [reference needed]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 The first direction being perpendicular to the height direction is not strictly perpendicular; a reasonable range of error is allowed in their spatial relationship. Furthermore, the first direction can be any direction within the plane perpendicular to the height direction. This first direction can be parallel to the rotation axis of the rotating device 2, or it can be at an angle to the rotation axis. The tilting machine includes a working state and a non-working state. The working state is the tilting state, as detailed in [link to details]. Figure 2 The non-working state is the non-flipping state; see details. Figure 3 Furthermore, the rotating device 2 can be configured as a single unit or as two units in a mirror configuration.

[0044] As can be seen, the flipping machine provided in this application embodiment can achieve fully automatic operation of the flipping machine through the rotating device 2, the automatic lifting device 3 and the automatic limiting device 4, which improves the degree of automation, reduces labor costs, and occupies less space than manual operation which requires reserving space for manual operation.

[0045] In specific implementation, the automatic lifting device 3 includes a lifting frame 31 and two first linear drive assemblies 32. The lifting frame 31 includes a first segment 311, a second segment 312, and a third segment 313 connected sequentially along a first length direction. The two first linear drive assemblies 32 are fixed on the base 1, and the driving ends of the two first linear drive assemblies 32 are connected to the first segment 311 and the third segment 313 respectively along the height direction. That is, the driving end of one first linear drive assembly 32 is connected to the first segment 311 along the height direction, and the driving end of the other first linear drive assembly 32 is connected to the third segment 313 along the height direction. The second segment 312 is connected to the automatic limit device 4. It should be noted that only one first linear drive assembly 32 can be provided, but compared to one first linear drive assembly 32, two first linear drive assemblies 32 can improve the structural stability of the automatic lifting device 3 and provide a larger clamping force to the part to be tilted 5. In addition, multiple first linear drive assemblies 32 can be provided. Compared to two, multiple first linear drive assemblies 32 can provide a greater clamping force to the part to be tilted 5. When multiple first drive components are provided, the multiple first linear drive components 32 can be evenly or unevenly distributed on the lifting frame 31, that is, the drive ends of the multiple first linear drive components 32 are connected to the lifting frame 31. Those skilled in the art can make specific designs according to specific circumstances. The first linear drive components 32 include, but are not limited to, hydraulic cylinders or pneumatic cylinders. For a detailed schematic of the first length direction, see [link to schematic diagram]. Figure 1 .

[0046] In specific implementation, along the height direction, the top surface of the second segment 312 is lower than the top surfaces of the first segment 311 and the third segment 313; the bottom surface of the second segment 312 is lower than the bottom surfaces of the first segment 311 and the third segment 313. The lifting frame 31 forms a U-shaped structure. Along the height direction, the gap formed between the first segment 311 and the third segment 313 and the base 1 provides space for the installation of the first linear drive assembly 32; and the second segment 312 is located at the bottom of the U-shaped structure, which facilitates the automatic limit device 4 to adjust its position along the height direction, and at the same time, the adjustment range is larger, while the weight of the lifting frame 31 can be reduced compared to the straight lifting frame 31.

[0047] In specific implementation, the second segment 312 is provided with multiple first through holes 3121 along the first direction, and at least one first through hole 3121 passes through the automatic limiting device 4 so that the automatic limiting device 4 can move relative to the second segment 312 along the first direction. The automatic limiting device 4 can pass through one, two, or three first through holes 3121 of the second segment 312. The number of first through holes 3121 through which the automatic limiting device 4 passes can be specifically designed by those skilled in the art according to specific circumstances. The provision of multiple first through holes 3121 not only provides multiple possibilities for the arrangement of the automatic limiting device 4, but also allows the first through holes 3121 without the automatic limiting device 4 to act as weight-reducing holes, thereby reducing the weight of the second segment 312.

[0048] In specific implementation, the automatic lifting device 3 includes two devices, which are spaced apart along a first direction. The gap formed by the two devices along the first direction is used to set the part to be flipped 5. That is, along the first direction, automatic lifting devices 3 are respectively set on both sides of the part to be flipped 5, which can limit the part to be flipped 5 in the first direction. Two automatic limiting devices 4 located on the two automatic lifting devices 3 are mirror images of each other. That is, the two limiting devices can move simultaneously along the first direction towards the part to be flipped 5 or away from the part to be flipped 5. When the automatic limiting device 4 moves into position towards the part to be flipped 5, it can cooperate with the base 1 to limit the part to be flipped 5 in its thickness direction.

[0049] In specific implementation, the automatic limiting device 4 includes a limiting member 41, a moving member 42, and a second linear drive assembly 43. The limiting member 41 moves relative to the lifting frame 31 along a first direction. The limiting member 41 includes a first end and a second end along a second length direction. In the flipped state, the second end passes through the lifting frame 31 along the first direction and protrudes from the lifting frame 31. The portion of the limiting member 41 protruding from the lifting frame 31 is used to press against the part to be flipped 5. It should be noted that in the non-flipped state, the second end may or may not protrude from the lifting frame 31. When the second end protrudes from the lifting frame 31, it is necessary to ensure that the part to be flipped 5 does not interfere with the second end when placed on the base 1. When the second end does not protrude from the lifting frame 31, the second end may be located inside or outside the first through hole 3121 (i.e., the second end does not pass through the first through hole 3121 of the second section 312). The movable part 42 is detachably connected to the first end, facilitating replacement when one needs to be replaced and allowing for adjustment of the connection position between the movable part 42 and the first end, thus improving the adaptability of the flipping machine. The fixed end and driving end of the second linear drive assembly 43 are respectively connected to the movable part 42 and the lifting frame 31. The second linear drive assembly 43 drives the movable part 42 to move relative to the lifting frame 31 along the first direction, and the movable part 42 drives the limiting part 41 to move along the first direction. When in the flipping state, the second end of the limiting part 41 protrudes from the lifting frame 31 along the first direction and is located on the side of the part to be flipped 5 away from the base 1. The second segment 312 is driven by the automatic lifting device 3 to move along the height direction towards the side closer to the base 1. The second segment 312 drives the limiting part 41 to move along the height direction until the limiting part 41 abuts against the side of the part to be flipped 5 away from the base 1. The base 1 and the limiting part 41 clamp the part to be flipped 5. The clamping force can prevent the part to be flipped 5 from moving when it is flipped. The second length direction refers to the length direction of the limiting member 41. A detailed diagram of the second length direction can be found in [link to diagram]. Figure 1 The second linear drive assembly 43 includes, but is not limited to, a hydraulic cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder, or an electric actuator. Furthermore, the number and position of the second linear drive assembly 43 can be specifically designed by those skilled in the art according to specific circumstances.

[0050] In practice, the component to be flipped 5 is placed on the base 1. The second linear drive assembly 43 drives the limiting component 41 to move towards the side of the component to be flipped 5. When the limiting component 41 is in place, the first linear drive assembly 32 drives the limiting component 41 to press the component to be flipped 5. After the flip is completed, the first linear drive assembly 32 releases the pressure, relieving the pressing force on the component to be flipped 5. At the same time, the second linear drive assembly 43 drives the moving component 42 to move away from the component to be flipped 5, causing the limiting component 41 to reset and wait for the next action.

[0051] In specific implementation, the movable part 42 is provided with multiple positioning grooves 421. The positioning grooves 421 correspond one-to-one with the positions of the first through holes 3121 on the second section 312. The first end is accommodated in the positioning groove 421, which facilitates the positioning of the limiting part 41. At the same time, the positioning grooves 421 that do not accommodate the limiting part 41 can reduce the weight of the movable part 42.

[0052] In specific implementation, the automatic limiting device 4 also includes a bolt 44, and a second through hole 422 is provided on the moving part 42 along the first direction; a threaded hole is provided at the first end of the limiting part 41 corresponding to the position of the second through hole 422; the bolt 44 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole, and the diameter of the nut of the bolt 44 is larger than the diameter of the second through hole 422. The nut and the first end clamp the moving part 42 by the force of the threaded connection, thereby fixing the moving part 42 and the limiting part 41. It should be noted that when the positioning groove 421 is not provided on the moving part 42, the second through hole 422 is at the position on the moving part 42 corresponding to the first through hole 3121 on the second section 312; when the positioning groove 421 is provided on the moving part 42, the second through hole 422 is located on the bottom of the positioning groove 421.

[0053] In a specific implementation, the first end of the limiting member 41 and the moving member 42 can be detachably connected by riveting. However, this is not the only possibility; any structure that allows for a detachable connection can be designed by those skilled in the art based on specific circumstances.

[0054] In practice, multiple limiting members 41 are evenly arranged along the third length direction. It should be noted that the third length direction is the length direction of the moving member 42, and the third length direction forms an angle with the first direction. Preferably, the first length direction and the third length direction are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the first direction, resulting in a shorter moving distance for the limiting members 41 and a more compact structure for the flipping machine.

[0055] In practice, a boss 11 is formed by a partial protrusion on the top of the base 1, and the automatic lifting device 3 is located on the boss 11. The boss 11 can position the part to be flipped 5 and also limit the position of the part to be flipped 5 after it has been placed.

[0056] In practice, the boss 11 is movably connected to the base 1, and the driving end and fixed end of the third linear drive assembly are respectively connected to the base 1 and the boss 11. This allows the boss 11 to be adjusted according to the size of the part to be flipped 5, so that the part to be flipped 5 can abut against the side of the boss 11. This improves the stability and safety of the flipping machine.

[0057] In practice, the component to be flipped 5 is placed on the base 1. After the third linear drive assembly moves the boss 11 into position, the second linear drive assembly 43 moves the limiting component 41 to one side of the component to be flipped 5. When the limiting component 41 is in position, the first linear drive assembly 32 moves the limiting component 41 to press the component to be flipped 5. After flipping to the correct position, the first linear drive assembly 32 releases the pressure, releasing the pressing force on the component to be flipped 5. At the same time, the second linear drive assembly 43 moves the moving component 42 away from the component to be flipped 5, causing the limiting component 41 to reset. The third linear drive assembly moves the boss away from the component to be flipped 5, waiting for the next action.
