Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of photovoltaic technology, and in particular to a corner protector paper clip device. Background Technology

[0002] After the photovoltaic modules are manufactured, for ease of storage and safe transportation, they need to be packaged in individual boxes or pallets. During packaging, specially customized corner protectors must be placed under the boxes or pallets to prevent deformation of the boxes or damage to the photovoltaic modules inside. During packaging, the corner protectors need to be manually removed from the storage containers. In traditional technology, the storage capacity of corner protector containers is small, and after the corner protectors are used up, they need to be frequently added manually, increasing the workload of workers. Furthermore, traditional corner protector storage containers use a bulky hopper design with modular assembly, which can cause jamming and unstable discharge of the corner protectors as they move up and down inside. The hopper doors are fixed with screws, making opening and closing cumbersome and time-consuming, resulting in time-consuming and labor-intensive material changes when replacing materials in the hopper. Utility Model Content

[0040] The corner protector clip device provided in this application embodiment is exemplary; please refer to [link to example]. Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This is a front view schematic diagram of a corner protector clip device provided in an embodiment of this application. The corner protector clip device of this application can be used for loading corner protector paper and for packaging photovoltaic modules.

[0041] To more clearly illustrate the structure of the corner protector clip device, the following description will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0042] For example, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 This is a front view schematic diagram of a corner protector clip device according to an embodiment of this application. A corner protector clip device 10 includes a first fixed baffle 100, a second fixed baffle 200, a third fixed baffle 300, and a movable door panel 400. The first fixed baffle 100, the second fixed baffle 200, and the third fixed baffle 300 are sequentially connected to form a groove-shaped structure for accommodating multiple overlapping corner protectors 20. The movable door panel 400 is rotatably connected to either the first fixed baffle 100 or the third fixed baffle 300. The movable door panel 400 can cooperate with either the third fixed baffle 300 or the first fixed baffle 100 to close the groove-shaped structure.

[0043] In some embodiments, the lengths of the first fixed baffle 100, the second fixed baffle 200, and the third fixed baffle 300 are equal. The length of the first fixed baffle 100 can be set to 1100mm~1300mm.

[0044] The widths of the first fixed baffle 100 and the third fixed baffle 300 are equal. The width of the first fixed baffle 100 can be set to 100mm~150mm. The width of the second fixed baffle 200 can also be 100mm~150mm.

[0045] The aforementioned corner protector clip device 10, by setting certain length and width dimensions, can increase the loading capacity, reduce the frequency of manual replacement of the corner protector 20, indirectly improve the equipment performance utilization rate, eliminate safety hazards and accidents, and achieve rapid loading of the corner protector 20. At the same time, it can increase the filling amount of the corner protector 20 from the traditional 100pcs (number of pieces) to 150pcs, increasing the loading capacity by 50% and reducing the frequency of workers loading the corner protector 20.

[0046] In some embodiments, the two ends of the groove structure are respectively connected to limiting plates 500 for limiting the corner protector paper 20.

[0047] In some embodiments, the first fixed baffle 100, the second fixed baffle 200, and the third fixed baffle 300 are connected in an integral structure. The first fixed baffle 100 and the third fixed baffle 300 are in relative positions. That is, the first fixed baffle 100 and the third fixed baffle 300 are respectively connected to the two opposite long edges of the second fixed baffle 200, so that the first fixed baffle 100, the second fixed baffle 200, and the third fixed baffle 300 are connected in a groove-like structure. Optionally, the groove-like structure is a U-shaped groove structure.

[0048] Optionally, the limiting plate 500 is integrated with the first fixed baffle 100, the second fixed baffle 200, and the third fixed baffle 300. The limiting plate 500 and the first fixed baffle 100, the second fixed baffle 200, and the third fixed baffle 300 can be formed by processes such as die casting and cutting.

[0049] In some embodiments, the first fixed baffle 100, the second fixed baffle 200, and the third fixed baffle 300 are integrally formed by bending metal material. The aforementioned corner protector clip device 10 can be machined from high-strength steel using mechanical bending. The corner protector clip device 10 has an overall cylindrical design, with fixed baffles on three sides and a hinged movable door panel 400 on the other side. The movable door panel is easy to open, facilitating the loading of the corner protector paper 20.

[0050] In some embodiments, at least one of the first fixed baffle 100 or the third fixed baffle 300 and the movable door panel 400 is a permanent magnet made of permanent magnet material, and the other is a permanent magnet made of permanent magnet material or a magnetically conductive material, so that the movable door panel 400 is magnetically connected to the first fixed baffle 100 or the third fixed baffle 300. The magnetically connected movable door panel 400 facilitates the opening of the movable door panel 400 by the operator, and enables faster loading of the corner protector paper 20.

[0051] In some embodiments, a magnet is embedded in the first fixed baffle 100 or the third fixed baffle 300, and a magnet is connected to the movable door panel 400. The aforementioned corner protector clip device 10 and the movable door panel 400 adopt a magnetic door lock design, which is convenient to open and close, and facilitates the loading of corner protector paper 20 by operators.

[0052] In some embodiments, the first fixed baffle 100 is provided with an observation hole 600.

[0053] In some embodiments, the first fixed baffle 100 is provided with a plurality of observation holes 600 spaced apart along its length.

[0054] In some embodiments, the third fixed baffle 300 is provided with an observation hole 600.

[0055] In some embodiments, the third fixed baffle 300 is provided with a plurality of observation holes 600 spaced apart along its length.

[0056] In some embodiments, the corner protector clip device 10 is provided with observation holes 600 on the first fixed baffle 100 and the third fixed baffle 300. The observation holes 600 can be provided on the first fixed baffle 100 and the third fixed baffle 300 using laser drilling technology. The design of the observation holes 600 makes it convenient for workers to observe the loading status of the corner protector paper 20 inside the corner protector clip device 10.

[0057] In some of these embodiments, see Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 This is a bottom view schematic diagram of the corner protector clip device 10 according to an embodiment of this application. One end of one of the first fixed baffle 100, the second fixed baffle 200, and the third fixed baffle 300 is provided with a discharge channel 700. The shape and size of the discharge channel 700 are respectively matched to the shape and size of the bent cross-section of the corner protector 20. Optionally, the size of the discharge channel 700 is slightly larger than the size of the corner protector 20 to ensure that one corner protector 20 can fall at a time, but two corner protectors 20 are restricted from being discharged from the discharge channel 700 simultaneously. During installation, the fixed baffle with the discharge channel 700 is located at the lowest surface. This arrangement ensures that when the external pushing component 800 pushes the corner protector 20 within the groove structure to move a distance equal to the thickness of one corner protector 20, the corner protector 20 can naturally fall from the discharge channel 700 under its own weight, achieving the purpose of discharge.

[0058] For example, when the corner protector paper 20 has a right-angle bend structure, the discharge channel 700 can be an adapted L-shaped structure to match the corner protector paper 20, facilitating the discharge of the corner protector paper 20. The discharge channel 700 is not shown in the attached drawings.

[0059] In some of these embodiments, see Figure 3 As shown, the discharge channel 700 is a right-angled V-shape (i.e., L-shape) with an inward indentation. When loading, the corner protector paper 20 is arranged along the right-angled V-shape inside the discharge channel 700 so that when the corner protector paper 20 moves toward the discharge channel 700, it can fall directly from the right-angled V-shaped discharge channel 700.

[0060] In some of these embodiments, see Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 This is a cross-sectional view of a corner protector clip device according to an embodiment of this application. The corner protector clip device 10 is provided with a mechanism for an external pushing component 800 to push the corner protector paper 20 within the grooved structure and drop it through the discharge channel 700. Optionally, a clearance through hole is provided on one of the limiting plates 500, which allows the external pushing component 800 to be installed so that the push rod of the external pushing component 800 can extend into the grooved structure to push the corner protector paper 20 to move.

[0061] In summary, the aforementioned corner protector clip device 10 is used for loading corner protector paper 20. The inner wall of the clip device 10 is smooth, allowing the corner protector paper 20 to move smoothly within it during loading, reducing or eliminating jamming and improving loading efficiency. This significantly increases worker efficiency, reducing the time required to add corner protector paper 20 per operation from 5 minutes using traditional methods to less than 3 minutes. The device operates smoothly and is suitable for various corner protector brands, significantly improving operational safety and convenience. Furthermore, the corner protector clip device 10 features a rotatable movable door plate 400, improving ease of opening and reducing worker workload.

[0062] In the above embodiments, the descriptions of each embodiment have different focuses. For parts not described in detail in a certain embodiment, please refer to the relevant descriptions in other embodiments.

[0063] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0064] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this patent application.
