ABSTRACT:
A device for turning over work pieces includes a base, a pair of conveyor belts for transferring the work pieces in one direction, with the work pieces being kept on upper surfaces thereof. The pair of conveyor belts are mounted on the base in a parallel relationship with each other, putting a separation therebetween. The turning-over device further includes a receiving holder provided with a substantially U-shaped receiver and a connection joined thereto, having a rotation axis horizontally extending at a right angle with the transfer direction of the conveyor belts. The receiving holder is located between the pair of conveyor belts and is rotatable between a first position, wherein the work piece is inserted into the U-shaped receiver and a second position, wherein the work piece is discharged from the U-shaped receiver. The turning-over device further includes a holder controller for rotating the receiving holder to the second position, when the work piece is inserted into the U-shaped receiver and for reversely rotating the receiving holder to the first position, when the work piece leaves the U-shaped receiver.
