The clamping unit 2222 is movably connected to the clamping body 2122, and the clamping body 2122 is rotatably connected to the clamping driving portion 2021. The grip driving part 2021 can drive the grip body 2122 to rotate in a first direction (as shown in a direction C of fig. 7), the grip unit 2222 grips one first portion 101, and the grip unit 2222 can rotate in the first direction (as shown in a direction C of fig. 7) together with the rotation of the grip body 2122 to rotate the gripped one first portion 101 by a set angle.

The setting angle by which the clamping unit 2222 clamps the rotation of the first portion 101 of the present application is 90 degrees to 140 degrees. The specific numerical values are different under the influence of the molding difficulty of the material 10, and when the material 10 is easier to mold, the set angle can be properly reduced; when the material 10 is relatively difficult to form, the set angle should be increased appropriately to prevent the first portion 101 of the material 10 from being turned insufficiently.

In some possible embodiments, referring to fig. 8, the clamping unit 2222 includes a first clamping piece 2223 and a second clamping piece 2224. In the radial direction of the carrying portion (as shown in the Y direction in fig. 7), referring to fig. 7 and referring to fig. 8, the first clamping piece 2223 and the second clamping piece 2224 are relatively disposed on one side of the clamping unit 2222 away from the clamping driving portion 2021, and the clamping driving portion 2021 can drive the first clamping piece 2223 and the second clamping piece 2224 to move in opposite directions so as to clamp the first portion 101 of the material.

The conveying part 31 is provided on the machine body 2 and is used for conveying the material 10 in the previous step to the twisting machine 1. A shaping assembly 70 is provided on the machine body 2 downstream of the twisting machine 1 in the conveying direction of the conveying section 31 (as shown in the Z direction in fig. 9), the shaping assembly 70 being for shaping the cut, inverted material 10. Referring to fig. 10, the shaping assembly 70 includes at least two lateral shaping devices 701 and a press fit device 702, with the at least two lateral shaping devices 701 being circumferentially spaced about the press fit device 702 (as shown in the direction B in fig. 10). Referring to fig. 9, the pressing device 702 is disposed above the conveying portion 31 along a first direction (as shown in an X direction in fig. 9). Illustratively, with continued reference to fig. 10, at least two transverse shaping devices 701 include four.

The specific structure of the shaping assembly is not limited, and reasonable setting and selection can be performed according to actual needs, so long as shaping of the material 10 can be realized.

Illustratively, referring to fig. 11, the conveying portion 31 is composed of a first conveying portion 311 and a second conveying portion 312, and the carrying portion 30 is located at one end of the first conveying portion 311 near the second conveying portion 312. The conveyor belt of the first conveying portion 311 is divided into two in the third direction (as shown in the direction E in fig. 11), and a gap 3110 is provided between the two conveyor belts, and the carrier portion 30 is located in the gap 3110. With the above design, when the material 10 is conveyed onto the supporting blocks 302 of the carrying part 30 with reference to the figure, the carrying driving part 301 can move the supporting blocks 302 carrying the material 10 upward from the gap 3110 to the cutting station along the first direction (as shown in X direction in fig. 11), so as to avoid the blocking of the supporting blocks 302 by the conveyor belt of the first conveying part 311.

In some possible embodiments, the twisting system further comprises: a first sensor 321 and a second sensor 322. With continued reference to fig. 11, along the conveying direction of the conveying portion 31 (as shown in the Z direction in fig. 11), the first sensor 321 is disposed at a set distance h2 upstream of the carrying portion 30, and the second sensor 322 is disposed at a set distance h2 upstream of the shaping assembly 70. The first sensor 321 is configured to detect whether the material 10 exists at a set distance h2 upstream of the bearing portion 30, and if so, the bearing driving portion 301 drives the supporting block 302 to lift the material 10 upwards along a first direction (as shown in an X direction in fig. 11). The second sensor 322 is configured to detect the presence of the material 10 at a set distance h2 upstream of the shaping assembly 70, and if so, the shaping assembly 70 performs shaping.

In some possible embodiments, referring to fig. 2 to 8 in combination with fig. 11, a twisting method of the present utility model is as follows:

the conveying part 31 conveys the material 10 to the bearing part 30 along the conveying direction (shown as the Z direction in fig. 11), and the bearing driving part 301 drives the supporting blocks 302 to move upwards along the first direction (shown as the X direction in fig. 11) so that the material 10 is positioned at the cutting station. Next, the liner units 601 of at least two liner assemblies 60 are driven by the liner driving part 602 to move towards each other along the radial direction (as shown in the Y direction in fig. 7) of the bearing part 30, so as to form a molded liner together with the supporting blocks 302 of the bearing part 30, so as to be used for bearing the material 10.

Then, the cutter device 402 is moved downward in a first direction (as shown in X direction in fig. 3) by the cutter driving part 401, so that the material 10 is cut into at least one first portion 101 and a second portion 102. The second cutter driving part 4012 drives the outer die 4021 and the at least two cutter blades 4022 to move upward in a first direction (shown as X direction in fig. 3), and the liner plate unit 601 moves outward in a radial direction of the carrier part 30 (shown as Y direction in fig. 1) under the driving of the liner plate driving part 602 to provide a working space for the twisting assembly 20. The clamping device 202 is driven by the twist driving part 201 to move toward each other in the radial direction (as shown in the Y direction in fig. 1) of the bearing part 30 to clamp the first portion 101 and rotate by a set angle.

After the twisting is completed, the clamping device 202 is driven by the twisting driving part 201 to move outwards along the radial direction (as shown in the Y direction in fig. 1) of the bearing part 30, the first cutter driving part 4011 drives the pressing block 4023 to move upwards along the first direction (as shown in the X direction in fig. 3), and the bearing driving part 301 drives the supporting block 302 to move downwards along the first direction (as shown in the X direction in fig. 11), so that the material 10 returns to the conveying part 31 and is carried and conveyed to the shaping assembly 70 by the conveying part 31. The material 10 is shaped by the shaping assembly 70 and then transported via the transport section 31 to a next process, which may be, for example, a tray handler.

While the utility model has been shown and described with reference to certain preferred embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the foregoing is a further detailed description of the utility model with reference to specific embodiments, and it is not intended to limit the practice of the utility model to those descriptions. Various changes in form and detail may be made therein by those skilled in the art, including a few simple inferences or alternatives, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model.
