[0028] like Figure 2 The frame 1 is equipped with four support legs 12, and each support leg 12 is equipped with a foot support column 11 whose installation position can be adjusted. The support leg 12 is provided with several through holes, and the foot support column 11 is provided with several oblong holes. The two are preferably connected and fixed by bolts. By adjusting the installation position of the foot support column 11, the overall height of the frame can be adjusted to facilitate the matching of the height of the preceding and following processes in the processing line.

[0029] The conveying module 2 is used to convey the corner piece to the rotating component 3 and output the corner piece after it has been flipped by the rotating component 3. The conveying module 2 can be configured with one or two sets. When two sets are configured, they are used for the input and output of the corner piece, respectively.

[0030] In this embodiment, a set of conveying modules 2 is provided. The conveying module 2 includes two sets of conveying chains 22 and a conveying motor 21. The conveying motor 21 is connected to the two sets of conveying chains 22 for transmission.

[0031] A guide assembly 13 is installed on the frame 1. The guide assembly 13 is used to guide the corner pieces conveyed on the conveying module 2, so that the corner pieces can enter the receiving slot 313 in the correct posture. The guide assembly 13 is preferably a guide plate arranged on both sides of the conveying module 2. The guide assembly 13 is provided on both sides of the rotating assembly 3 to guide the corner pieces during the input and output process.

[0032] like Figure 3The rotating component 3 includes a rotating drive, a rotating shaft 33, and a rotating fan blade 31. The rotating drive is a rotating motor 32, which is connected to the rotating shaft 33. The rotating fan blade 31 is mounted on the rotating shaft 33. The rotating drive is used to drive the rotating shaft 33 to rotate. The rotating fan blade 31 can rotate at least 180°. The rotating fan blade 31 is provided with a receiving groove 313 for accommodating corner pieces. The receiving groove 313 has a discharge edge 312, which is inclined. After rotating 180°, the corner pieces automatically fall onto the conveying module under the action of gravity, completing the discharge.

[0033] The receiving groove 313 also has a receiving edge 311, which is preferably horizontally or slightly inclined, for contacting the bottom of the entering corner piece 5 when flipped.

[0034] In this embodiment, a set of receiving grooves 313 are provided on each side of the rotating fan blade 31. The rotating fan blade 31 can rotate 360°. At least three sets of rotating fan blades 31 are provided, respectively located on the outside and between the two sets of conveyor chains 22, which has a stable flipping effect. The multiple sets of rotating fan blades 31 do not significantly increase the motor load.

[0035] A sensor module 4 is provided on the side of the frame 1 near the entrance of the corner piece 5. The sensor module 4 is preferably a photoelectric sensor. The sensor module 4 is used to detect whether the corner piece is in place. The sensor module 4 is electrically connected to the rotary drive. When the corner piece 5 enters the receiving groove 313, the sensor module 4 sends a signal to the rotary motor 32 or the control module, so that the rotary motor 32 starts and rotates the rotating fan blade 31 180° to complete the flipping.

[0036] By setting up the conveyor module 2 and the rotating component 3, the corner pieces can be automatically flipped. This equipment can be integrated into the corner piece processing line to improve the efficiency of the processing line.

[0037] Work process: such as Figure 4 After the corner piece 5 completes the previous process, it enters the conveying module 2 and is sent to the receiving tank 313. At this time, the large hole of the corner piece 5 faces upward. The rotary motor 32 starts and rotates the rotating fan blade 31 180° to complete the flipping. The corner piece 5 is then output by the conveying module 2 to the next process.

[0038] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are merely examples and do not limit the present invention. The purpose of the present invention has been fully and effectively achieved. The functional and structural principles of the present invention have been shown and explained in the embodiments.
