[0002] Photovoltaic glass is a special type of glass specifically designed for solar photovoltaic power generation modules. As the encapsulation cover for photovoltaic cells, it must possess characteristics such as high light transmittance, high strength, and good weather resistance.

It is very heavy, and the drive motor is located on one side. When flipping, the centrifugal force is large and it is easy to cause the equipment to deviate. Furthermore, when the glass is flipped by pressing it with the suction cup, it is easy to cause the glass to break when it falls after being flipped. Summary of the Invention

The adjusting screw passes through the fixed plate and the adjusting sleeve, and the adjusting screw is threadedly connected to the fixed plate and the adjusting sleeve. The end of the adjusting screw passes through the round hole on the limiting seat. The limiting block is located between the connecting plate and the limiting seat, and the limiting block is fixedly connected to the end of the adjusting screw.
[0011] Preferably, the conveying structure includes a conveying frame, a first roller, a tensioning assembly, a second roller, and a conveyor belt.

[0016] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this invention easier to understand, the invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0017] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a belt-driven roller type lightweight flipping mechanism includes a main frame 1. A support roller 2 is provided at the bottom end of the main frame 1, and a roller disc 3 is rolled on the support roller 2. A fixed plate 4 is fixedly connected between the two roller discs 3, and an adjustment structure 5 is connected to the fixed plate 4. A conveying structure 6 is provided on the adjustment structure 5, and the conveying structure 6 is located inside the fixed plate 4. A gear skeleton 9 is provided on the fixed plate 4.
[0018] A mounting plate is provided on the roller disc 3, and a conveyor motor 8 is provided on the mounting plate. The conveyor motor 8 is provided with a long shaft 7. Two conveyor motors 8 are centrally symmetrically distributed on the two roller discs 3 along the central axis. The ends of the upper and lower sets of conveyor structures 6 are connected to the conveyor motors 8 through the long shaft 7. A mounting base 14 is provided on the main frame 1, and a rotary reduction motor 10 is fixed on the mounting base 14. A drive gear 11 is provided on the output shaft of the rotary reduction motor 10, and the drive gear 11 is meshed with the gear skeleton 9. Adjustable feet 12 are provided at the bottom corner of the main frame 1, and a support frame 13 is fixed on the main frame 1. The support roller 2 is rotatably mounted on the support frame 13.
[0019] Before processing the photovoltaic glass, the main frame 1 is positioned using adjustable feet 12. Adjusting the feet 12 ensures the main frame 1 fits the workshop floor environment and guarantees the horizontal placement of the entire structure. During photovoltaic glass transport, two conveyor motors 8, centrally symmetrically distributed along the axis on the two rollers 3, are activated. The conveyor motors 8 rotate the long shaft 7, which in turn drives the components in the conveyor structure 6, moving one end of the photovoltaic glass between the upper and lower conveyor structures 6. The conveyor structure 6 then transports the photovoltaic glass to its designated position, and once in place, the corresponding processing operations can be performed.
[0020] When the photovoltaic glass needs to be flipped, the rotary reduction motor 10 at the mounting base 14 on the main frame 1 is started. The output shaft of the rotary reduction motor 10 drives the drive gear 11 to rotate slowly. Driven by the drive gear 11, the gear frame 9 flips the fixed plate 4, roller 3, adjustment structure 5, conveying structure 6 and photovoltaic glass. During this process, the roller 3 rotates on the support roller 2 on the support frame 13. The support roller 2 stabilizes the roller 3. In addition, during the flipping process, since the two conveying motors 8 are centrally symmetrically distributed along the axis of the roller 3, the imbalance of the center of gravity can be avoided, which may cause the equipment to shift or the glass to deviate during conveying, thus ensuring the normal conveying and flipping of the glass.
[0021] For photovoltaic glass of different widths, the adjustment structure 5 can be used for adjustment. After the adjustment structure 5 is operated, the conveying structure 6 moves relative to the fixed plate 4, thereby changing the spacing between the left and right conveying parts to ensure that the conveying structure 6 is adapted to the width of the photovoltaic glass, thus ensuring the flexibility and adaptability of use. After long-term use, the conveying belt may stretch. At this time, the tensioning part in the conveying structure 6 can be operated to re-tension the belt, ensuring normal subsequent conveying.
[0022] According to the above implementation scheme, the adjusting structure 5 includes a connecting plate 501, a guide rod 502, a limiting seat 503, an adjusting sleeve 504, an adjusting screw 505, and a limiting block 506. The connecting plate 501 is connected to the upper and lower sets of conveying structures 6, and the connecting plate 501 is fixedly connected to the guide rod 502. The guide rod 502 passes through the fixed plate 4. The limiting seat 503 is fixed to the connecting plate 501 by screws, and the limiting seat 503 is provided with a round hole. The adjusting sleeve 504 is located on the outside of the fixed plate 4. The adjusting screw 505 passes through the fixed plate 4 and the adjusting sleeve 504, and the adjusting screw 505 is threadedly connected to the fixed plate 4 and the adjusting sleeve 504. The end of the adjusting screw 505 passes through the round hole on the limiting seat 503. The limiting block 506 is located between the connecting plate 501 and the limiting seat 503, and the limiting block 506 is fixedly connected to the end of the adjusting screw 505.
[0023] When assembling and using the adjustment structure 5, the connecting plate 501 is connected to the upper and lower sets of conveying structures 6. One end of the guide rod 502 is connected to the connecting plate 501, and the other end passes through the fixing plate 4. The adjusting screw 505 is connected to the adjusting sleeve 504 and the fixing plate 4. A limiting seat 503 is fitted at the end of the adjusting screw 505, and the limiting block 506 is fixed to the end position of the adjusting screw 505. The conveying structure 6 and the connecting plate 501 are moved so that the connecting plate 501 abuts against the limiting seat 503. The limiting seat 503 is fixed to the connecting plate 501 with screws to complete the assembly of the entire adjustment structure 5.
[0024] During normal use, the adjusting screw 505 and the adjusting sleeve 504 in the adjusting structure 5 have a self-locking effect, so the adjusting structure 5 is in a fixed state, which fixes the position of the conveying structure 6. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the conveying structure 6, rotate the adjusting screw 505. The adjusting screw 505 rotates and moves on the adjusting sleeve 504. Due to the action of the limiting seat 503 and the limiting block 506, when the adjusting screw 505 rotates, the connecting plate 501 moves relative to the fixed plate 4 through the guide rod 502, thereby moving the conveying structure 6. After the adjustment is completed, it can be used.
[0025] According to the above implementation scheme, the conveying structure 6 includes a conveying frame 601, a first roller 602, a tensioning component 603, a second roller 604, and a conveyor belt 605. The conveying frame 601 is connected to the adjusting structure 5. The first roller 602 is rotatably disposed at one end of the conveying frame 601 and is connected to the long shaft 7. The second roller 604 is disposed on the tensioning component 603 and the tensioning component 603 is installed at the other end of the conveying frame 601. The conveyor belt 605 is sleeved on the conveying frame 601 and the tensioning component 603.
[0026] When conveying photovoltaic glass, after the conveyor motor 8 starts, it drives the first roller 602 at the end of the conveyor frame 601 to rotate via the long shaft 7. Driven by the first roller 602, the conveyor belt 605 moves to convey the photovoltaic glass. At this time, the second roller 604 is mounted on the tensioning component 603 via the short shaft and rotates to ensure the normal movement of the conveyor belt 605. After long-term use, the conveyor belt 605 is stretched and the tension decreases, which will affect the conveying of photovoltaic glass. At this time, the position of the second roller 604 can be changed by the tensioning component 603, so that the second roller 604 moves away from the first roller 602 until the conveyor belt 605 is re-tensioned, and then it can be used again.
[0027] The tensioning assembly 603 includes a tensioning frame 6031, a fixed slide rod 6032, a sliding bearing seat 6033, an adjusting screw 6034, a limiting frame 6035, and a circular plate 6036. The fixed slide rod 6032 is fixedly mounted on the tensioning frame 6031 by screws, and the tensioning frame 6031 is fixed to the end of the conveyor frame 601. The tensioning frame 6031 is provided with a clearance slot. A bearing is mounted on the sliding bearing seat 6033, and the bearing is connected to the second roller 604 through a short shaft. The bearing seat 6033 is slidably mounted on the fixed slide rod 6032. The adjusting screw 6034 is threadedly connected to the tensioning frame 6031. The limiting frame 6035 is set on the sliding bearing seat 6033 and has a through hole. The end of the adjusting screw 6034 passes through the through hole on the limiting frame 6035. The circular plate 6036 is located in the space between the limiting frame 6035 and the sliding bearing seat 6033, and the circular plate 6036 is fixedly connected to the end of the adjusting screw 6034.
[0028] When re-tensioning the conveyor belt 605 using the tensioning assembly 603, rotate the adjusting screw 6034 on the tensioning frame 6031. The adjusting screw 6034 rotates and moves on the tensioning frame 6031. Due to the combined action of the limiting frame 6035 and the circular plate 6036, when the adjusting screw 6034 moves, the sliding bearing seat 6033 moves along the fixed slide rod 6032, and then moves the second roller 604 through the short shaft, so that the second roller 604 moves away from the first roller 602 to complete the tensioning of the conveyor belt 605. After tensioning, the entire mechanism can continue to be used.
[0029] It should be noted that by setting roller discs 3, fixing plates 4, adjusting structures 5, and conveying structures 6 inside the main frame 1, and by setting conveying motors 8 in opposite directions on the two roller discs 3 respectively, the conveying motors 8 are connected to the upper and lower sets of conveying structures 6 respectively. Through lightweight design and central arrangement of drive components, the centrifugal force during flipping is effectively reduced, preventing equipment deviation and glass conveying deviation caused by centrifugal force due to imbalance of center of gravity, and effectively reducing the glass breakage rate. The position of the conveying structure 6 can be adjusted using the adjusting structure 5, which is compatible with photovoltaic glass of different widths and has high adaptability. Furthermore, the adjusting structure 5 is driven by the adjusting screw 505, which has self-locking stability after adjustment. Using the conveying structure 6, the position of the second roller 604 can be adjusted using the tensioning component 603 to prevent the conveyor belt 605 from stretching and loosening or breaking during long-term operation.
[0030] The foregoing describes the principles of use, features, and beneficial effects of the present invention. Those skilled in the art will understand from the foregoing that it does not limit the invention; the embodiments and description above illustrate the basic principles and features of the invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to the invention while remaining consistent with its concept, and all such modifications should fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
