Patent Application
20190300292
The present disclosure relates to manufacturing devices, and more particularly to an automatic turnover device using gravity.
A workpiece, such as a circuit board, is turned over by an automatic turnover device to allow the front and back surfaces of the workpiece to be processed during the manufacturing process of the workpiece. Conventional automatic turnover devices include a turnover track. The turnover track is made to turn over such that the workpiece or the fixture with the workpiece on the turnover track is turned over. However, the conventional automatic turnover device has disadvantages such as complex structure, high manufacturing costs, and large size.
Many aspects of the disclosure can be better understood with reference to the following drawings. The components in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the disclosure. Moreover, in the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
It will be appreciated that for simplicity and clarity of illustration, where appropriate, reference numerals have been repeated among the different figures to indicate corresponding or analogous elements. In addition, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the exemplary embodiments described herein. However, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that the exemplary embodiments described herein can be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, methods, procedures, and components have not been described in detail so as not to obscure the related relevant feature being described. Also, the description is not to be considered as limiting the scope of the exemplary embodiments described herein. The drawings are not necessarily to scale and the proportions of certain parts may be exaggerated to better illustrate details and features of the present disclosure.
With reference to
The support frame 1 includes a pair of legs 11, a cross member 12, a pair of pivot mounts 13, and a pivot shaft 14. The legs 11 are spaced apart from each other. The cross member 12 extends between upper ends of the legs 11. The pivot mounts 13 are spaced apart from each other and mounted on the cross member 12. The pivot shaft 14 is mounted between the pivot mounts 13.
The motor 2 is secured to the cross member 12 of the support frame 1. The motor 2 has an output shaft 21.
The pulley 3 is mounted on the output shaft 21 of the motor 2.
The holding assembly 4 is pivotally connected to the support frame 1. With further reference to
The belt 5 has one end attached to the pulley 3 and another end attached to the clamping block 43 of the holding assembly 4.
The cover 6 houses the motor 2 to prevent danger to personnel during operation of the motor 2.
In use, the automatic turnover device 100 is mounted on a conveyor (not shown). The object 7 is transported to the bracket 41 of the holding assembly 4 by the conveyor. With reference to
The automatic turnover device 100 has the advantages of simple structure, low manufacturing costs, and small size.
The exemplary embodiments shown and described above are only examples.
Many details are often found in the art such as the other features of a manufacturing device. Therefore, many such details are neither shown nor described. Even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present technology have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and function of the present disclosure, the disclosure is illustrative only, and changes may be made in the detail, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of the parts within the principles of the present disclosure, up to and including the full extent established by the broad general meaning of the terms used in the claims. It will therefore be appreciated that the exemplary embodiments described above may be modified within the scope of the claims.
