  • Patent number: 10378258
    Abstract: The flipping mechanism for rotating a flat element includes a linear guide having a rail and a slide moveable along the rail, a swivel arm having a first end connected adjacent to a first end of the rail in such a way that the swivel arm can be rotated about the first end between a first position, in which the swivel arm is parallel to the rail, and a second position, in which the swivel arm is perpendicular to the rail, and a rotation element having a first end connected in a rotatable manner to the slide of the linear guide, the rotation element being further connected to the swivel arm in a rotatable manner such that rotation of the rotation element about its first end causes rotation of the swivel arm about the first end.
