Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automotive parts processing, specifically, it relates to a flipping device for automotive parts processing. Background Technology

[0002] In the automotive manufacturing industry, the processing precision and production efficiency of auto parts directly determine the assembly quality and production capacity of the entire vehicle. Most auto parts (such as engine blocks, transmission housings, chassis brackets, etc.) require multi-process composite machining. When moving between different workstations such as milling, drilling, welding, and inspection, the parts often need to be rotated 180° or at multiple angles to achieve precise processing of both sides and multi-directional machining surfaces. Therefore, the rotation operation has become a key link in the parts processing flow. However, existing rotation devices can only rotate auto parts laterally and cannot rotate them longitudinally. This results in the longitudinal surfaces of auto parts not being able to be rotated upwards for processing, requiring manual adjustment of the auto parts, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and greatly reduces the efficiency of auto parts processing.

[0003] Chinese patent CN221271095U discloses a flipping device for processing automotive parts. This device uses an electric cylinder to move a lifting frame downwards. The lifting frame, through a limiting groove, moves rollers downwards. The rollers, through a flipping linkage, rotate a connecting column clockwise. The connecting column then rotates a flipping block clockwise. The flipping block, through a rotating shaft, rotates a clamp clockwise. The clamp then flips the automotive parts longitudinally, giving the entire device the ability to flip longitudinally. This eliminates the need for manual adjustment of the automotive parts' orientation, saving time and effort and significantly improving the efficiency of automotive parts processing. However, if dust or other impurities adhere to the surface of the automotive parts during flipping, manual cleaning is required, thus reducing overall work efficiency.

[0004] In view of this, this utility model is hereby proposed. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0037] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0038] Please see Figure 1-6 As shown, this embodiment provides a flipping device for processing automotive parts, including a conveyor belt mechanism 1 and a fixing frame 2, which is fixedly installed on the conveyor belt mechanism 1. A first cylinder 3 is fixedly installed on the fixing frame 2, and a mounting plate 6 is fixedly installed on the telescopic end of the first cylinder 3. The mounting plate 6 is arranged relative to the conveyor belt of the conveyor belt mechanism 1. A gripper cylinder 4 is rotatably mounted on the mounting plate 6 via a first rotating shaft 10. A flipping assembly 7 for driving the gripper cylinder 4 to flip is provided on the mounting plate 6. At least one set of blowing ash assembly 5 for blowing air onto the automotive parts on the gripper cylinder 4 is provided on the fixing frame 2. The exhaust end of the blowing ash assembly 5 is arranged facing the gripper cylinder 4.

[0039] Specifically, in this embodiment, the conveyor belt mechanism 1 is used to transport automotive parts. The first cylinder 3 on the fixed frame 2 drives the mounting plate 6 to rise and fall, so that the gripper cylinder 4 on the mounting plate 6 moves closer to or away from the parts. After the gripper cylinder 4 clamps the parts, the flipping component 7 drives the gripper cylinder 4 to flip around the first rotating shaft 10, thereby flipping the parts. At the same time, the dust blowing component 5 on the fixed frame 2 blows air onto the parts on the gripper cylinder 4 to remove surface dust or debris. It integrates conveying, clamping, flipping, and cleaning functions, has a high degree of automation, reduces manual intervention, and improves processing efficiency. By coordinating the dust blowing component 5 with the flipping action, it avoids impurities on the surface of the parts from affecting the subsequent processing accuracy.

[0040] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 4As shown, the soot blowing assembly 5 includes a mounting box 51, which is fixedly mounted on a mounting frame 2. An airbag 55 is housed inside the mounting box 51. A pressure plate 54 is slidably mounted inside the mounting box 51 relative to the airbag 55, and the pressure plate 54 is in contact with the top of the airbag 55. An exhaust pipe 53 is connected to the airbag 55, with one end of the exhaust pipe 53 facing away from the airbag 55 and towards the clamping end of the gripper cylinder 4. An L-shaped plate 52 is movably mounted on the mounting frame 2, with its first end fixedly connected to a mounting plate 6 and its second end fixedly connected to the pressure plate 54. A movable groove 14 for the L-shaped plate 52 to move is cut into the mounting box 51. A support for the exhaust pipe 53 is fixedly mounted on the mounting frame 2. Specifically, the power of the soot blowing assembly 5 comes from the lifting and lowering action of the first cylinder 3: when the first cylinder 3 drives the mounting plate 6 to descend (closer to the parts), the mounting plate 6 drives the L-shaped plate 52 to move down, and the pressure plate 54 at the second end of the L-shaped plate 52 squeezes the air bag 55 in the mounting box 51. The gas in the air bag 55 is sprayed out through the exhaust pipe 53 toward the clamping end of the gripper cylinder 4 to remove dust from the surface of the parts; when the first cylinder 3 resets (the mounting plate 6 rises), the L-shaped plate 52 drives the pressure plate 54 to move up, and the air bag 55 rebounds and draws in air to store pressure for the next blowing. No additional power source (such as an air pump) is needed. The movement of the first cylinder 3 is used to synchronously drive the soot blowing, saving energy and equipment costs.

[0041] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the flipping assembly 7 includes a gearbox 72, which is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 6. One end of the gearbox 72 is fixedly connected to the first rotating shaft 10, and a rotating plate 73 is fixedly mounted on the drive shaft at the other end. A second cylinder 71 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 6. The telescopic end of the second cylinder 71 is movably connected to the end of the rotating plate 73 opposite to the gearbox 72. A drive plate 9 is fixedly mounted on the telescopic end of the second cylinder 71. A movable rod 11 is fixedly mounted on the end of the drive plate 9 opposite to the second cylinder 71. A movable groove 12 is provided through the rotating plate 73 along its length direction. The movable rod 11 is movably disposed in the movable groove 12. Specifically, when the cylinder telescopically extends or retracts, the movable rod 11 slides in the movable groove 12 and pushes the rotating plate 73 to swing around the drive shaft of the gearbox 72, converting the linear motion of the cylinder into the rotational motion of the rotating plate 73. This, in turn, drives the gripper cylinder 4 to flip through the gearbox 72, thereby achieving the angle adjustment of the parts.

[0042] In this embodiment, as Figures 2 to 5As shown, the gearbox 72 includes a first gear 727, which is sleeved and fixedly mounted on the first rotating shaft 10; a second gear 721, which is rotatably mounted on the mounting plate 6 via the second rotating shaft 722; a rotating plate 73, which is fixedly mounted on the second rotating shaft 722; a third gear 724, which is rotatably mounted on the mounting plate 6 via the third rotating shaft 723; the third gear 724 meshes with the second gear 721; and a fourth gear 725, which is rotatably mounted on the mounting plate 6 via the fourth rotating shaft 726; the fourth gear 725 meshes with both the third gear 724 and the first gear 727. Specifically, the multi-gear transmission allows for flexible design of the transmission ratio, which can both amplify torque (suitable for flipping heavy parts) and precisely control the flipping angle. The high gear meshing transmission accuracy ensures accurate flipping angle of the gripper cylinder 4 and improves the positioning accuracy of part processing.

[0043] In this embodiment, as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, a position sensor 13 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 6 relative to the conveyor belt mechanism 1. Specifically, the position sensor 13 is fixed on the mounting plate 6 and is used to detect the position of the parts on the conveyor belt mechanism 1 (such as whether they have reached the clamping area of ​​the gripper cylinder 4) and feed the signal back to the control system. It should be noted that in this embodiment, multiple position sensors 13 can also be set on the conveyor belt mechanism 1 to ensure the overall automated operation. The installation and working principle of the position sensor 13 are existing technologies and will not be described here.

[0044] Working principle:

[0045] Conveyor belt mechanism 1 starts, transporting the automotive parts to be processed to the core area of ​​the device. Position sensor 13 on mounting plate 6 detects the position of the parts in real time. When the parts reach the preset clamping position directly below gripper cylinder 4, the sensor sends a signal to the external control system, and conveyor belt mechanism 1 stops running. After receiving the signal, the control system triggers the first cylinder 3 to act. The telescopic end of the first cylinder 3 extends downward, driving the mounting plate 6 and the gripper cylinder 4 and the tilting assembly 7 on the plate to descend synchronously. At the same time, the L-shaped plate 52, which is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 6, moves down with the mounting plate 6. Its second end pushes the pressure plate 54 in the mounting box 51 to slide downward, squeezing the airbag 55. The gas in the airbag 55 is compressed and then discharged. Air pipe 53 directs air onto the automotive parts on the conveyor belt mechanism 1 (at this time, the parts are not gripped by the gripper cylinder 4, nor are they being flipped), thus blowing away dust and other impurities from the surface of the automotive parts. When the gripper cylinder 4 descends to a height suitable for the parts, it activates and precisely grips the parts. Subsequently, the extension end of the first cylinder 3 retracts upward, causing the mounting plate 6, gripper cylinder 4, and the gripped parts to rise back to the preset flipping height. At the same time, the L-shaped plate 52 moves upward with the mounting plate 6, the pressure plate 54 releases its pressure on the airbag 55, the airbag 55 rebounds and inhales, and after the mounting plate 6 resets, the second cylinder 71 is activated. Its extension end drives the movable rod 11 to move linearly via the drive plate 9. Rod 11 slides within the movable groove 12 of rotating plate 73, converting linear motion into the oscillation of rotating plate 73. Rotating plate 73 drives second rotating shaft 722 and second gear 721 on the shaft to rotate synchronously. Second gear 721 meshes with third gear 724 for transmission. Third gear 724 then drives fourth gear 725, which meshes with it, to rotate. Fourth gear 725 ultimately drives first gear 727 and first rotating shaft 10 to rotate, achieving precise flipping of gripper cylinder 4 and parts (flipping angle is controlled by the stroke of second cylinder 71 and gear transmission ratio). After the parts are flipped to the target angle, first cylinder 3 extends again, gripper cylinder 4 descends to the conveyor belt surface, and releases grip on parts. The processed parts are placed back into the conveyor belt mechanism 1. During this process, the first cylinder 3 continues to drive the pressure plate 54 to apply pressure to the airbag 55, so that the compressed gas in the airbag 55 is sprayed out in a direction through the exhaust pipe 53 to blow and clean the dust, debris and other impurities on the surface of the parts. After the position sensor 13 detects that the parts have been released from the clamp, it sends a feedback signal to the control system, the conveyor belt starts, and the parts are transported to the next processing station. The device enters the next round of operation cycle. The overall structure and operation steps are simple. The surface of the automotive parts is cleaned during the lifting and lowering of the mounting plate 6. There is no need for manual cleaning of the automotive parts, which saves time and improves the overall processing efficiency.
