Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of current transformer assembly equipment, specifically a current transformer flipping machine that achieves 90° rotation via pneumatic drive and is equipped with a sliding structure, for the safe assembly of current transformer base plates. Background Technology

[0002] The base plate is a major mounting component of the current transformer. When assembling the base plate, the current transformer needs to be rotated 90 degrees. During this rotation, the safety of the operator must be ensured first; secondly, the current transformer must not be bumped or scratched. After the base plate is assembled, the current transformer must be rotated 90 degrees back to its original position. Manually assembling the current transformer base plate is a physically demanding task. Currently, for larger current transformers, the 90-degree rotation is generally done manually by two employees. Problems exist in manually rotating current transformers: 1. Due to the weight and complex shape of large current transformers, there are no reliable handles, so finger cuts and foot injuries frequently occur during rotation, posing safety hazards to the operator, surrounding personnel, and the product. 2. During manual rotation, it is difficult to control the tilt angle of the current transformer, often resulting in scratches, bumps, and damage. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This invention provides a pneumatically driven, sliding-structure-equipped tilting machine that solves the safety and product protection issues of manual tilting and enables safe operation by a single person.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a current transformer flipping machine, comprising: a pneumatic flipping device for driving a tray to rotate 90° in both directions; and a horizontally arranged tray for supporting the current transformer body; A slide rail is provided at the bottom of the tray, extending along the length of the tray, so that the current transformer can slide horizontally along the slide rail; a limiting mechanism is fixed to the edge of the tray to prevent the current transformer from falling off during flipping.

[0005] Preferably, the pneumatic tilting device includes a pneumatic push rod and a rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom of the pallet, and the pneumatic push rod drives the rotating shaft to rotate in 90° steps.

[0006] Preferably, the slide rail consists of two parallel roller guide rails, with the roller surfaces covered with a rubber layer.

[0007] Preferably, the limiting mechanism is a movable L-shaped baffle, and a buffer pad is provided on the inner side of the baffle.

[0008] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: The flipping of the current transformer, the assembly of the base plate, and the subsequent flipping and restoration are achieved by changing the flipping method. Equipment is used to achieve the initial 90-degree flipping of the current transformer. After flipping, the current transformer base plate can be easily assembled, and after assembling the base plate, it can be easily flipped 90 degrees again for restoration. The entire flipping and assembly process can be easily completed by only one employee. Attached Figure Description

[0015] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0016] See Figures 1 to 6As shown, this utility model discloses a current transformer flipping machine, comprising: a pneumatic flipping device 1 for driving a support plate 2 to rotate 90° in both directions; a horizontally arranged support plate 2 for supporting the current transformer body; a slide rail 3 located at the bottom of the support plate 2, extending along the length of the support plate to allow the current transformer to slide horizontally along the slide rail; and a limiting mechanism 4 fixed to the edge of the support plate 2 to prevent the current transformer from falling off during flipping. The pneumatic flipping device 1 includes a pneumatic push rod 11 and a rotating shaft 12, the rotating shaft 12 being fixedly connected to the center of the bottom of the support plate 2, and the pneumatic push rod 11 driving the rotating shaft 12 to rotate 90° in stages. The slide rail 3 consists of two parallel roller guide rails, with the roller surfaces covered with a rubber layer. The limiting mechanism 4 is a movable L-shaped baffle with a buffer pad 41 on its inner side.

[0017] The existing manual flipping process has many uncertainties, such as differences in the operator's height and arm strength. Without cushioning during the flipping process, it is easy to cause scratches and bumps on the product surface. At the same time, it also poses great safety hazards to the operator, such as scratches to fingers and arms, and if the product falls off the workbench, it can easily injure feet.

[0018] Workflow linkage description: Initial state ( Figure 1-2 The current transformer is placed on the tray 2 and limited by the limiting mechanism 4. (Flipping stage) Figure 3 Pneumatic push rod 11 pushes pallet 2 to slide along slide rail 3 and rotate 90° counterclockwise along rotating axis 12, pallet 2 tilting synchronously to vertical position. Assembly stage ( Figure 4 The operator pushes the current transformer horizontally along slide rail 3 to the assembly station and installs the base plate. Reset phase ( Figure 5-6 ): The pneumatic push rod 11 retracts in the reverse direction, driving the tray 2 to rotate 90° clockwise to reset, thus completing the assembly.

[0019] This utility model's flipping machine first solves the problem of product flipping. It uses a pneumatic device to slowly tilt the product to 90 degrees. Then, using the slide under the tray 2, the current transformer can be easily pushed forward a short distance by hand to facilitate the assembly of the base plate. After the base plate is assembled, it is slowly reversed and returned to the upright position. The entire flipping process does not require manual contact with the current transformer, avoiding accidents such as scratches and injuries. At the same time, the product will not slide, effectively protecting the product's surface. This equipment achieves ideal results, proving the rationality of the structure.

[0020] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
