This invention belongs to the field of conveying equipment technology and discloses an asymmetrical workpiece conveying direction reversal device based on chain tooth transmission, including a ring conveying unit, a horizontal holding
assembly, a reverse / forward pushing cylinder
assembly, and a reverse / forward slide
assembly. The ring conveying unit is equipped with a ring guide rail and a
sprocket mechanism arranged along a
vertical plane. The horizontal holding assembly is driven by a chain and slides synchronously along the guide rail, sequentially passing through the feeding, detection, reverse pushing, and forward pushing stations. The horizontal holding assembly achieves stable horizontal conveying of the workpiece
pallet throughout the entire process by meshing a horizontal holding gear with the guide half gear of the central guide assembly in a 1:1 ratio, and cooperating with the guide notch and strip protrusion for limiting. After
visual detection identifies the front and back of the workpiece, the reversed workpiece is flipped over via the reverse slide, and the front workpiece is directly conveyed via the forward slide, ensuring that the front faces upward. This invention eliminates the need for
machine downtime and reciprocating reset, allowing for continuous and stable operation, effectively preventing workpiece displacement and overturning, and improving
production cycle time and versatility.
