Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mechanical equipment, and in particular to a photovoltaic module stacking device. Background Art

[0002] Double-glass photovoltaic modules are made of two pieces of glass, front and back, and are therefore relatively strong. Generally, they do not have frames unless there are special requirements. After the modules are laminated and the junction boxes are installed, they need to be sent to the curing line for at least 3 hours of curing. In the curing line, the modules are cured in a stacked manner. However, since double-glass photovoltaic modules have no frames, tooling is required to space the modules apart. Traditional tooling spacers are mainly made of foamed plastics such as styrofoam and EPE. When a large number of stacked modules are present, they are prone to deformation, which can lead to module breakage. In addition, large-sized styrofoam and EPE occupy a large space and cannot be put into use after deformation, resulting in waste. Smaller-sized foamed plastics are prone to shifting during the movement of the curing line, and the recovery rate is not high. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to solve the problem that the spacers between photovoltaic modules are easily deformed and broken when a large number of frameless photovoltaic modules are stacked, the present invention adopts a photovoltaic module stacking device, including a suction cup, a support body and a cover plate, the suction cup is connected to the support body and the cover plate in sequence, and the cover plate is provided with an anti-slip structure.

[0004] Preferably, the support body has at least two positioning holes, and the cover plate has at least two protrusions that cooperate with the positioning holes. The protrusions on the cover plate are inserted into the positioning holes, thereby mounting the cover plate on the support body. Multiple positioning holes can be provided on the support body to save material.

[0005] Furthermore, the projection has larger dimensions at both ends than in the middle. The diameter of the largest portion of the projection is slightly larger than the diameter of the positioning hole. When the projection is installed in the positioning hole, the middle portion of the projection has an interference fit with the positioning hole, making it difficult to remove the cover plate. The smaller dimensions at both ends facilitate insertion of the projection into the positioning hole and serve as a guide.

[0006] Preferably, a mounting hole is provided on the support body, and a mounting block is provided in the middle of the suction cup to match the mounting hole. The size of the mounting block corresponds to the size of the mounting hole, and the mounting block is inserted into the mounting hole to mount the suction cup and the mounting hole together.

[0007] Furthermore, the axis of the mounting hole is collinear with the axis of the support body. In order to position the support body exactly at the center of the suction cup, the axis of the mounting hole is collinear with the axis of the support body so that the force applied by the support body to the suction cup is uniform.

[0008] Preferably, in order to prevent the photovoltaic modules from slipping on the stacking device, the anti-slip structure is an anti-slip strip provided on the surface of the cover plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the support body is cylindrical, and the diameter of the suction cup is larger than the diameter of the support body.

[0010] Preferably, the suction cup is provided with an air-breaking column. When the suction cup is attached to the photovoltaic module, it is difficult to pull the suction cup off the photovoltaic module due to the effect of air pressure. Therefore, the air-breaking column is provided on the suction cup to facilitate the removal of the suction cup and thus detachment from the photovoltaic module.

[0011] Furthermore, the suction cup is made of rubber.

[0012] Beneficial effects: The present invention is small in size, does not take up space, the device is stable, has high friction, and the device will not move. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0016] Example 1

[0017] A photovoltaic module stacking device comprises a rubber suction cup 1, a support 2 and a cover plate 3. The suction cup 1 is sequentially connected to the support 2 and the cover plate 3. The cover plate 3 is provided with an anti-slip strip 4.

[0018] The support body 2 has at least two positioning holes 6, and the cover plate 3 has at least two protrusions 7 that mate with the positioning holes 6. The protrusions 7 have larger dimensions at the ends than in the middle. In this embodiment, the support body 2 has four positioning holes 6 evenly distributed across its surface, and the cover plate 3 has three protrusions 7. The cover plate 3 is inserted into the positioning holes 6 via the three protrusions 7. The protrusions 7 are larger in the middle than at the ends, ensuring that the cover plate 3 is mounted on the support body 2 and cannot shift.

[0019] The support body 2 is provided with a mounting hole 9, and the center of the suction cup 1 is provided with a mounting block 8 that cooperates with the mounting hole 9. The axis of the mounting hole 9 is collinear with the axis of the support body 2. The support body 2 is cylindrical, and the diameter of the suction cup 1 is larger than that of the support body 2. The suction cup 1 is provided with an air-breaking column 5.

[0020] Working Principle: First, place the suction cup 1 on the ground or on a table, align the mounting hole 9 on the support 2 with the mounting block 8, and install the support 2 on the suction cup 1. Then, align the protrusion 7 on the cover 3 with the positioning hole 6, and install the cover 3 on the support 2. The device is now installed. Then, place the device around the photovoltaic module, suck the suction cup 1, and then place the photovoltaic module to be stacked on top of the photovoltaic module on the cover 3. Since the cover 3 is provided with an anti-slip strip 4, the photovoltaic module cannot slide freely on the cover 3. If you need to continue stacking photovoltaic modules, you can continue stacking using the above method until the requirement is met.
