When the push plate piston rod 4023 is at the low position, the top end of the push plate 4022 is lower than the position of the longitudinal support rod 301, so that the graphite box can be pushed to the longitudinal support rod 301 when stored. When the push plate piston rod 4023 is at the high position, the push plate 4022 is higher than the position of the longitudinal support rod 301, and the plate surface of the push plate 4022 can contact the graphite box placed on the longitudinal support rod 301, so as to realize the pushing of the graphite box by the push plate 4022.

[0130] When the clamping jaw piston rod 40311 is in the low position, the height of the upper horizontal plate 40331 is lower than the height of the longitudinal supporting rod 301, so as to ensure that the whole clamping jaw assembly 403 is lower than the longitudinal supporting rod 301, so that the graphite box can be pushed onto the longitudinal supporting rod 301 during storage. When the clamping jaw piston rod 40311 is in the high position, the height of the gas jaw 4034 can be aligned with the graphite box, so as to realize the taking out of the graphite box.

[0131] The conveying method of the horizontal conveying device is as follows:

[0132] For the case of pushing the graphite box to the storage position, the steps are as follows:

[0133] The height of the push plate piston rod is adjusted by the push plate lifting oil cylinder to match the height of the graphite box;

[0134] The upper side of the horizontal transmission belt is driven by the horizontal drive motor to move inward, and the operating table and the push plate are driven by the horizontal transmission belt to move inward, and the push plate pushes the graphite box to move towards the storage position. When the graphite box is pushed by the push plate to the storage position, the upper side of the horizontal transmission belt is driven by the horizontal drive motor to move outward, and the operating table and the push plate are driven to return to the initial position on the outside;

[0135] The height of the push plate piston rod is adjusted to the initial position, so that the height of the push plate is lower than the height of the longitudinal supporting rod;

[0136] For the case of clamping the graphite box from the storage position to the longitudinal supporting rod, the steps are as follows:

[0137] The height of the push plate piston rod is adjusted by the push plate lifting oil cylinder to match the height of the graphite box;

[0138] Before clamping the graphite box, the distance between the upper and lower grab heads is slightly larger than the thickness of the graphite box, and the horizontal drive motor drives the horizontal transmission belt to drive the operating table and the push plate to move towards the graphite box;

[0139] When the grabber moves to a position where it can clamp the graphite box, that is, the lower surface of the upper grab head and the upper surface of the lower grab head are opposite the edge of the graphite box to be clamped, the cylinder piston rod of the adjusting cylinder is retracted, the upper grab head naturally falls on the upper surface of the graphite box under the action of gravity, and the gas claw 4034 is actuated, the upper and lower grab heads are tightened, thereby clamping the graphite box. At this time, the horizontal drive motor drives the horizontal transmission belt to drive the operating table and the push plate to move outward, and the graphite box is clamped by the grabber under the guidance of the lateral guide wheel and slides along the bearing wheel to the longitudinal supporting rod. When the graphite box is completely moved to the longitudinal supporting rod, the distance between the upper and lower grab heads is slightly larger than the thickness of the graphite box again, so as to loosen the grabber, and the grabber is continuously withdrawn to the outside of the graphite box;

[0140] The height of the push plate piston rod is adjusted by the push plate lifting oil cylinder to match the height of the graphite box;

[0141] The box is a sealed box, and the box is a taking and placing side wall 101 on the side away from the storage area, such as Figure 11 、 Figure 12As shown, the taking and placing side wall 101 is provided with a taking and placing opening 1011 matching the size of the graphite box, and a gate 1012 is arranged at the taking and placing opening 1011. The gate 1012 is arranged at the inner side of the taking and placing side wall, vertical guide rails 1013 are arranged at both sides of the taking and placing side wall, and both ends of the gate 1012 are in sliding contact with the two vertical guide rails 1013. A vertical telescopic air cylinder 1014 and a control element for controlling the telescopic air cylinder 1014 are arranged on the taking and placing side wall 101, one end of the piston rod of the telescopic air cylinder is connected with one end of a gate connecting rod 1015, and the other end of the gate connecting rod 1015 is fixedly connected with the gate 1012. The control element for controlling the telescopic air cylinder 1014 is also arranged on the taking and placing side wall 101, and the telescopic air cylinder 1014 can be controlled to extend or retract through the control element, so as to control the automatic opening and closing of the gate 1012.

[0142] A horizontal side wall support rod 1016 is arranged at the outer side of the taking and placing side wall 101, both ends of the side wall support rod 1016 are fixed on the taking and placing side wall 101, and two outer side bearing wheels 1017 and two outer side guide wheels 1018 are arranged on the side wall support rod 1016. The axes of the two outer side bearing wheels 1017 are horizontally arranged, the rolling direction of the outer side bearing wheels 1017 is consistent with the conveying direction of the graphite box, the distance between the two outer side bearing wheels 1017 matches the width of the graphite box, and when the graphite box is placed, the graphite box can be placed on the outer side bearing wheels 1017, facilitating the placing of the graphite box. The axes of the outer side guide wheels 1018 are vertically arranged, the rolling direction of the outer side guide wheels 1018 is consistent with the conveying direction of the graphite box, and the distance between the two outer side guide wheels 1018 matches the width of the graphite box, so that the graphite box can be accurately placed in the designated position.

[0143] A micro-positive pressure fan filtering unit 105 is arranged on the top wall of the box at the top of the conveying area.

[0144] The battery assembly is relatively sensitive to impurities, and its storage requires a certain cleanliness of the environment. Measures should be taken to prevent dust during storage operation.

[0145] The embodiment uses the fan filtering device and the gate device arranged on the box top, the fan filtering device ensures the vacuum state in the box, and the gate device ensures that the storage box can be opened and closed in time as needed. Under the joint action of the two, the air in the storage box reaches the cleanliness requirement.

[0146] The device can ensure the precision and safety requirements, receive the battery assembly from the outside and store it in the storage rack, and also can take out the graphite box assembly in the storage rack and convey it to the outside. The automatic storage and taking of the graphite box assembly can greatly improve the production efficiency of the whole production line, and lay a foundation for the further development of the CIGS thin-film solar cell industry in China.

[0147] The above embodiments are only illustrative of the principles of the present application and its efficacy, and are not intended to limit the present application. Any modification or change made by any person skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application shall be covered by the claims of the present application.
