[0002] In the manufacturing process of heavy products, multi-faceted processing or inspection is often required, such as welding, painting, assembly, and flaw detection. Due to the large size and heavy weight of these products, manual turning is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but also poses significant safety risks, making it difficult to meet the requirements of modern manufacturing for efficient, safe, and automated production.

[0003] To overcome the drawbacks of manual flipping, flipping equipment such as flipping machines and rotary tables are now used, which can realize the automatic flipping of products to a certain extent, effectively reducing the intensity of manual labor and improving operational safety.

[0004] However, the aforementioned equipment is usually only applicable to a specific workstation or process, lacking versatility and flexibility. When products need to be transferred between multiple different processes and flipped separately, the existing flipping equipment cannot meet the process requirements of each process, resulting in large repeated investments in equipment and restricting the improvement of overall production efficiency.

[0008] In one embodiment, the conveying mechanism includes a ground rail, a rack connected to the ground rail, and a rotating gear cooperating with the rack. The rotating gear is connected to the flipping mechanism, and the flipping mechanism is slidably connected to the ground rail.

The first lead screw is a bidirectional lead screw and drives the two first jaws to drive the two first jaws to move closer or further apart from each other. And / or, the second clamp includes a second jaw, a toothed plate, and a transmission gear. Two second jaws are arranged opposite each other, and each second jaw is provided with a corresponding toothed plate. The two toothed plates are slidably connected to the clamping mounting plate, and the transmission gear is rotatably disposed on the clamping mounting plate and drives the two toothed plates.

[0012] In one embodiment, the transfer and flipping device further includes an extension mechanism, the conveying mechanism drives the extension mechanism to move along the first direction, and the extension mechanism drives the flipping mechanism to extend and retract along the second direction.

[0013] In one embodiment, the extension mechanism includes an extension mounting frame, a second lead screw, and an extension movable frame.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] 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 embodiments of the present utility model.

[0023] It should be noted that all directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in this utility model embodiment are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.

[0024] Furthermore, in the embodiments of this utility model, descriptions involving "first," "second," etc., are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of the embodiments of this utility model, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0025] In this embodiment of the invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connection," "fixed," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, "fixed" can mean a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; it can mean a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can mean a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can mean the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise explicitly limited.

[0026] Furthermore, the technical solutions of the various embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other, but only if they are based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the protection scope claimed by the embodiments of this utility model.

[0027] To overcome the drawbacks of manually flipping heavy products, specialized flipping equipment, such as flipping machines and rotary tables, has emerged. These equipment can stably clamp and flip heavy products, effectively reducing the intensity of manual labor and improving operational safety.

[0028] However, the inventors discovered that existing flipping equipment is usually fixedly installed at a specific workstation, with a single function, belonging to the "one machine, one use" model. When a heavy product needs to undergo multiple processing steps distributed in different locations, and each step may require flipping operations, a dedicated flipping device needs to be configured for each step. This lacks versatility and flexibility, results in large redundant investments in equipment, and restricts the improvement of overall production efficiency.

[0029] In view of this, this utility model provides a transfer and flipping device. The conveying mechanism can drive the flipping mechanism to move, enabling the flipping mechanism to automatically transfer and switch between various workstations. This achieves efficient and flexible flipping of heavy components in multi-process production, possessing the function of "one machine for multiple uses." Since one set of equipment can cover the flipping needs of multiple workstations, it avoids the need to repeatedly configure dedicated flipping devices, significantly reducing equipment investment costs. At the same time, the reduction in the number of devices also directly frees up more workshop space, making the production line layout more compact.

[0030] To better understand the above technical solution, the following detailed explanation is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment proposes a transfer and flipping device, which includes: A clamping mechanism 100 is used to clamp the component to be flipped. Optionally, the clamping mechanism 100 clamps at least on opposite sides of the component to be flipped. Further, two sets of clamping mechanisms 100 can be provided, one set clamping on opposite sides of the component to be flipped, and the other set clamping on the other opposite sides of the component to be flipped. This allows clamping on all sides of the component to be flipped, improving the reliability of the clamping and fixing. Specifically, the clamping mechanism 100 can be a commonly used gripper structure, and is not limited here. A flipping mechanism 200 is drivenly connected to the clamping mechanism 100 to drive the clamping mechanism 100 to flip. It is understood that the flipping mechanism 200 can drive the component to be flipped to flip, for example, by 90 degrees or 180 degrees, depending on the operational requirements. Optionally, the flipping mechanism 200 can be an electric turntable or other structural form of flipping machine, as long as it can realize the rotation and flipping of the component to be flipped; no limitation is made here. In one embodiment, two sets of flipping mechanisms 200 are provided, with the two sets of flipping mechanisms 200 spaced apart along a first direction. Each set of flipping mechanisms 200 is equipped with a clamping mechanism 100, so that the component to be flipped can be clamped and fixed at both ends along its length, further improving the reliability of clamping and fixing; and The conveying mechanism 300 is drivenly connected to the tilting mechanism 200 to drive the tilting mechanism 200 to move between different workstations. It is understood that the conveying mechanism 300 is used to drive the tilting mechanism 200 to move, and this movement can be linear or arc-shaped, depending on the arrangement of the processes.

[0032] In this embodiment, the integrated clamping mechanism 100, flipping mechanism 200, and conveying mechanism 300 automatically transport the entire flipping mechanism 200 and clamping mechanism 100 to the target workstation requiring flipping. Upon arrival, the clamping mechanism 100 reliably clamps the component to be flipped at that workstation, and the flipping mechanism 200 drives the flipping operation to the required angle. This allows the flipping mechanism 200 to automatically transfer and switch between workstations, achieving efficient and flexible flipping of heavy components in multi-process production, thus possessing a "one machine, multiple uses" function. Since one set of equipment can cover the flipping needs of multiple workstations, it avoids the need for redundant dedicated flipping devices, significantly reducing equipment investment costs. Simultaneously, the reduction in the number of devices directly frees up more workshop space, making the production line layout more compact. Furthermore, for heavy components with large weight and volume, using automatic clamping and flipping instead of manual operation not only significantly reduces the labor intensity of workers but also effectively reduces the safety risks caused by manual intervention.

[0033] In one embodiment of this utility model, the conveying mechanism 300 is configured as a linear transmission mechanism to drive the flipping mechanism 200 to move linearly along a first direction. It is understood that in a multi-process production process, the workstations of each process are arranged at intervals along a linear direction. Therefore, the conveying mechanism 300 is configured as a linear transmission mechanism to drive the flipping mechanism 200 to move linearly along the first direction, thereby enabling motion switching between multiple workstations arranged at intervals along the first direction, meeting the flipping requirements of heavy components in different processes.

[0034] In one embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 2 The conveying mechanism 300 includes a ground rail 310, a rack 320 connected to the ground rail 310, and a rotating gear 330 cooperating with the rack 320. The rotating gear 330 is connected to the flipping mechanism 200, and the flipping mechanism 200 is slidably connected to the ground rail 310.

[0035] Specifically, the tilting mechanism 200 is slidably connected to the ground rail 310, which guides the movement of the tilting mechanism 200. The ground rail 310 extends along the arrangement direction of multiple workstations. A rack 320 is provided along the extension direction of the ground rail 310 and is connected to the ground rail 310. A rotating gear 330 is connected to the tilting mechanism 200 and meshes with the rack 320. The rotation of the rotating gear 330 drives the tilting mechanism 200 to slide along the ground rail 310. Optionally, the rotating gear 330 is rotatably mounted on the ground of the tilting mechanism 200 and can be connected to a servo motor. The servo motor drives the rotating gear 330 to rotate, thereby driving the tilting mechanism 200 to slide along the ground rail 310. In this way, the rack and pinion transmission method has high rigidity, high positioning accuracy, and good anti-eccentric load capacity, which can improve the stability and positioning accuracy of the tilting mechanism 200 when switching between multiple workstations.

[0036] In one embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 6 and Figure 7 The flipping mechanism 200 includes: Rotary mounting frame 210; The first motor is fixedly connected to the rotary mounting frame 210; Rotary seat 220 is rotatably connected to the rotary mounting frame 210, and the rotary seat 220 is drivenly connected to the clamping mechanism 100; and The reduction gear set 230 is connected to the first motor and the rotating base 220.

[0037] Specifically, the flipping mechanism 200 includes a rotating mounting frame 210, a first motor, a rotating base 220, and a reduction gear set 230. Optionally, the rotating gear 330 is rotatably mounted on the bottom surface of the rotating mounting frame 210. The first motor is mounted on the rotating mounting frame 210, and the reduction gear set 230 is connected to the output shaft of the first motor and the rotating base 220. The driving force of the first motor is transmitted to the rotating base 220 through the reduction gear set 230, thereby driving the rotating base 220 to rotate, thus realizing the flipping of the component to be flipped.

[0038] In this embodiment, the power output of the first motor can be reduced by the reduction gear set 230 to prevent the rotation speed from being too fast and to improve the stability of the flipping of the component to be flipped.

[0039] Optionally, the surface of the rotating mounting frame 210 facing the rotating seat 220 is provided with a mounting groove, and the reduction gear set 230 is located in the mounting groove, which can reduce the overall thickness.

[0040] In one embodiment, the reduction gear set 230 includes a meshing first reduction gear and a second reduction gear, the outer diameter of the first reduction gear is larger than the outer diameter of the second reduction gear, and the second reduction gear is connected to the output shaft of the first motor.

[0041] In one embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 3 The clamping mechanism 100 includes a clamping mounting plate 110 and a first clamp 120 and a second clamp 130 arranged crosswise on the clamping mounting plate 110. The first clamp 120 and the second clamp 130 together form a clamping space surrounding the component to be flipped. The clamping mounting plate 110 is fixedly connected to the flipping mechanism 200.

[0042] Specifically, the clamping mechanism 100 includes a clamping mounting plate 110, a first clamp 120, and a second clamp 130. The clamping mounting plate 110 is connected to the flipping mechanism 200, specifically, it is connected to the rotating seat 220 and can rotate synchronously with the rotating seat 220. The first clamp 120 and the second clamp 130 are mounted on the clamping mounting plate 110. The first clamp 120 is used to clamp the opposite two sides of the component to be flipped, and the second clamp 130 is used to clamp the other two opposite sides of the component to be flipped. In this way, all four sides of the component to be flipped can be clamped, improving the reliability of clamping the component to be flipped and preventing the component to be flipped from accidentally falling off during the flipping process due to insecure clamping.

[0043] In one embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The first clamp 120 includes first jaws 121 and a first lead screw 122 rotatably mounted on the clamping mounting plate 110. Two first jaws 121 are arranged opposite each other. The first lead screw 122 is a bidirectional lead screw and drives the two first jaws 121 to move closer or further apart. In this embodiment, the first lead screw 122 is a bidirectional lead screw and rotatably mounted on the clamping mounting plate 110. Each end of the bidirectional lead screw has a lead screw nut, which is threadedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw and can move along the axial direction of the bidirectional lead screw. Each lead screw nut corresponds to one first jaw 121. Through the cooperation of the first lead screw 122 and the lead screw nut, the two first jaws 121 can move closer to each other to clamp the component to be flipped; the two first jaws 121 can also move further apart to release the component to be flipped. In this embodiment, the first clamp 120 has a simple structure, reliable operation, and can automatically adapt to components of different sizes to be flipped, improving clamping versatility. And / or, refer to Figure 4The second clamp 130 includes a second jaw 131, a toothed plate 132, and a transmission gear 133. Two second jaws 131 are arranged opposite each other, and each second jaw 131 is correspondingly provided with one toothed plate 132. The two toothed plates 132 are slidably connected to the clamping mounting plate 110. The transmission gear 133 is rotatably mounted on the clamping mounting plate 110 and drives the two toothed plates 132. Specifically, the transmission gear 133 is rotatably mounted on the clamping mounting plate 110, and a toothed plate 132 is provided on each opposite side of the transmission gear 133. The toothed plates 132 are slidably connected to the clamping mounting plate 110. Each gear is fixedly connected to a second jaw 131. The transmission gear 133 meshes with the toothed plate 132. Thus, by rotating the transmission gear 133, the two toothed plates 132 can be moved closer or further apart, thereby causing the two second jaws 131 to move closer or further apart, thereby clamping or releasing the component to be flipped.

[0044] In this embodiment, the first clamp 120 and the second clamp 130 adopt different structural forms, which can provide different clamping methods, avoid stress concentration, and improve stability during the flipping process. Moreover, the clamps with different structural forms can complement each other in function, thereby improving the reliability of clamping.

[0045] In one embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The transfer and flipping device further includes an extension mechanism 400. The conveying mechanism 300 drives the extension mechanism 400 to move along the first direction, and the extension mechanism 400 drives the flipping mechanism 200 to extend and retract along the second direction. Thus, the extension mechanism 400 can extend towards the component to be flipped at the workstation or retract away from it, reducing space occupation when not in use. Furthermore, during the overall movement of the equipment, it prevents the flipping mechanism 200 from colliding with other structures during its protrusion, improving the smoothness and safety of movement. In one embodiment, the extension mechanism 400 is connected to the flipping mechanism 200, and the conveying mechanism 300 is also connected to the extension mechanism 400. Specifically, the rotating gear 330 is connected to the extension mechanism 400, and the extension mechanism 400 is connected to the rotating mounting frame 210. Optionally, each flipping mechanism 200 has a corresponding extension mechanism 400.

[0046] In one embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 5 , Figure 6 as well as Figure 8The extension mechanism 400 includes an extension mounting frame 410, a second lead screw 420, and an extension movable frame 430. The conveying mechanism 300 is driven and connected to the extension mounting frame 410. The second lead screw 420 is rotatably disposed on the extension mounting frame 410 and driven and connected to the extension movable frame 430 so that the extension movable frame 430 moves along the second direction. The flipping mechanism 200 is disposed on the extension movable frame 430.

[0047] Specifically, the rotating gear 330 is rotatably connected to the extending mounting frame 410, and the second lead screw 420 is rotatably mounted on the extending mounting frame 410 and extends along the second direction. The second lead screw 420 is connected to the extending movable frame 430 through a lead screw nut. Through the cooperation of the second lead screw 420 and the lead screw nut, the extending movable frame 430 can move along the axial direction of the second lead screw 420, i.e., the second direction. Since the extending movable frame 430 is connected to the rotating mounting frame 210, the flipping mechanism 200 can move along the second direction. In this embodiment, the extending mechanism 400 adopts a lead screw drive, which can improve the stability and reliability of the movement.

[0048] In one embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 5 The transfer and flipping device further includes a clamping mechanism 500. The conveying mechanism 300 is drivenly connected to the clamping mechanism 500 to drive the clamping mechanism 500 to move along the first direction. The clamping mechanism 500 is also drivenly connected to the extension mechanism 400 to drive the extension mechanism 400 to move along the first direction. Thus, the clamping mechanism 500 allows for fine-tuning of the position of the flipping mechanism 200 in the first direction, facilitating accurate clamping of the component to be flipped by the clamping mechanism 100. In one embodiment, the conveying mechanism 300 is connected to the clamping mechanism 500, the clamping mechanism 500 is connected to the extension mechanism 400, and the extension mechanism 400 is connected to the flipping mechanism 200.

[0049] In one embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The clamping mechanism 500 includes a clamping fixed frame 510, a clamping movable frame 520, and a third lead screw 530. The conveying mechanism 300 is driven to the clamping fixed frame 510. The clamping movable frame 520 is slidably disposed on the clamping fixed frame 510 along the first direction. The third lead screw 530 is rotatably disposed on the clamping fixed frame 510 and driven to the clamping movable frame 520. The clamping movable frame 520 is driven to the extension mechanism 400.

[0050] Specifically, the rotating gear 330 is rotatably connected to the clamping and fixing frame 510, which can move along the ground rail 310 under the drive of the rotating gear 330. The third lead screw 530 is rotatably mounted on the clamping and fixing frame 510 and is connected to the clamping movable frame 520 through a lead screw nut. Through the cooperation of the third lead screw 530 and the lead screw nut, the clamping movable frame 520 is driven to move in the first direction. Since the clamping movable frame 520 is fixedly connected to the protruding mounting frame 410, the protruding mounting frame 410 can move synchronously with the clamping movable frame 520. In this way, the flipping mechanism 200 and the clamping mechanism 100 can be finely adjusted in the first direction, better clamping and fixing the component to be flipped.

[0051] In one embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 as well as Figure 8 The transfer and flipping device further includes a lifting mechanism 600. The conveying mechanism 300 drives the lifting mechanism 600 to move along the first direction, and the lifting mechanism 600 drives the flipping mechanism 200 to move along a third direction. Thus, the lifting mechanism 600 can achieve lifting and lowering of the flipping mechanism 200 in the third direction, preventing the component to be flipped from colliding with the workstation during the flipping process and improving the safety of the flipping. In one embodiment, the conveying mechanism 300 is connected to the lifting mechanism 600, the lifting mechanism 600 is connected to the clamping mechanism 500, the clamping mechanism 500 is connected to the extension mechanism 400, and the extension mechanism 400 is connected to the flipping mechanism 200.

[0052] In one embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 9 The lifting mechanism 600 includes a lifting fixed frame 610, a lifting movable frame 620 slidably disposed on the lifting fixed frame 610, and a fourth lead screw 630 drivingly connected to the lifting movable frame 620. The fourth lead screw 630 is rotatably disposed on the lifting fixed frame 610, and the lifting movable frame 620 is drivingly connected to the flipping mechanism 200.

[0053] Specifically, the rotating gear 330 is rotatably connected to the lifting fixed frame 610. It can be understood that the rotating gear 330 is rotatably mounted on the bottom surface of the lifting fixed frame 610 and can move along the first direction under the drive of the rotating gear 330 and the rack 320 to switch between different workstations. The fourth lead screw 630 extends along a third direction and is rotatably mounted on the lifting fixed frame 610. The fourth lead screw 630 is connected to the lifting movable frame 620 through a lead screw nut. The lifting movable frame 620 rises and falls along the third direction under the cooperation of the fourth lead screw 630 and the lead screw nut. The lifting movable frame 620 is connected to the clamping fixed frame and can rise and fall synchronously with the lifting movable frame 620, thereby realizing the rising and falling of the tilting mechanism 200 in the third direction.

[0054] The working process of the transfer and flipping device proposed in this embodiment is as follows: The conveying mechanism 300 drives the lifting mechanism 600, clamping mechanism 500, extending mechanism 400, tilting mechanism 200 and holding mechanism 100 to move synchronously in the first direction, and then move to the work position where tilting is required. The lifting mechanism 600 drives the clamping mechanism 500, the extension mechanism 400, the tilting mechanism 200 and the holding mechanism 100 to descend synchronously in a third direction until they descend to the first predetermined height; The extension mechanism 400 drives the flipping mechanism 200 and the clamping mechanism 100 to extend synchronously in the second direction; The clamping mechanism 500 drives the extension mechanism 400, the flipping mechanism 200 and the clamping mechanism 100 to move synchronously in the first direction to approach the component to be flipped on the workstation. The clamping mechanism 100 actuates, clamping the component to be flipped; The lifting mechanism 600 drives the clamping mechanism 500, the extension mechanism 400, the flipping mechanism 200 and the clamping mechanism 100 to rise synchronously in a third direction until they rise to the second predetermined height. The flipping mechanism 200 drives the clamping mechanism 100 to rotate, thereby realizing the flipping of the component to be flipped; The lifting mechanism 600 drives the clamping mechanism 500, the extension mechanism 400, the tilting mechanism 200 and the holding mechanism 100 to descend synchronously in a third direction until they descend to the first predetermined height; The clamping mechanism 100 releases the component to be flipped, thereby completing one flipping process of the component to be flipped.
