Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of solar energy technology, and particularly to a laminated automatic bar code pasting device for photovoltaic modules. Background Art

[0002] Currently, a photovoltaic module is a power generation device used to place under sunlight to generate a photovoltaic effect and convert light energy into electrical energy. The manufacturing process of a photovoltaic module is as follows: multiple cell wafers used to generate the photovoltaic effect are connected in series and welded into a battery string, then laid flat on a glass plate. The glass plate is placed in a laminator, and then multiple battery strings on the glass plate are connected again through bus bars to form a complete circuit, and finally a photovoltaic module is made.

[0003] A bar code is an important part of a photovoltaic panel, used for information tracking after the subsequent installation of the photovoltaic panel, and for scanning and entering the system during the production process of the photovoltaic module to long-term store various production information. The bar code is usually pasted between the battery string and the back panel of the photovoltaic panel. During the production process of the photovoltaic module, after the battery string is placed on the back panel, it is necessary to manually lift the edge of one side of the battery string, and then place the bar code between the battery string and the back panel.

[0004] However, manually lifting the battery string on each back panel is quite labor-intensive. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to lift the battery string more labor-saving, this application provides a laminated automatic bar code pasting device for photovoltaic modules.

[0006] A laminated automatic bar code pasting device for photovoltaic modules provided by this application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] A laminated automatic bar code pasting device for photovoltaic modules includes a support frame for supporting the photovoltaic module. The photovoltaic module includes a back panel and a battery string placed on the back panel. A lifting component is installed on the support frame. The lifting component includes a mounting block located above the photovoltaic module. A telescopic member for driving the mounting block to lift is connected to the mounting block. A plurality of suction holes are formed on the bottom surface of the mounting block. A connection hole for communicating between the plurality of suction holes is formed inside the mounting block. A suction pipe communicated with the connection hole is fixedly connected to one surface wall of the mounting block. The other end of the suction pipe is connected to a vacuum pump.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the telescopic member drives the mounting block to descend until the bottom surface of the mounting block abuts against the upper surface of the battery string. Subsequently, the vacuum pump is started, and the vacuum pump evacuates the connection hole and the suction hole through the suction pipe. At this time, the pressure in the suction hole decreases, and the battery string is adsorbed on the mounting block. Then the telescopic member is started to drive the mounting block to rise, and the rising of the mounting block can drive the battery string to rise, which saves human resources relatively. In this way, there is a gap between the battery string and the back panel, which is convenient for placing the bar code between the battery string and the back panel. And by adsorbing the battery string to drive the battery string to lift and lower, the situation of external force damaging the battery string is reduced.

[0009] Preferably, a reinforcement component is connected to the mounting block on one side of the photovoltaic module. The reinforcement block includes a reinforcement rod hinged to the bottom surface of the mounting block. The reinforcement rod gradually slopes downward in the direction close to the photovoltaic module. An adjusting member for adjusting the rotation of the reinforcement rod in the direction close to or away from the mounting block is connected to the reinforcement rod.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, during the process of the mounting block driving the battery string to rise, the adjusting rod gradually drives the reinforcement rod to rotate in the direction close to the mounting block. When the reinforcement rod rotates, it gradually extends into the space between the battery string and the back panel until the reinforcement rod abuts against the bottom surface of the battery string. At this time, the reinforcement rod gives a certain supporting force to the battery string, which is beneficial for the lifting and lowering component to drive the battery string to move in the direction close to or away from the back panel.

[0011] Preferably, a piston hole is formed in the bottom surface of the mounting block. The upper end of the piston hole communicates with the connection hole. A piston block is slidably clamped in the piston hole. The bottom surface of the piston block is fixedly connected with an adjusting rod. A long strip hole is formed in the upper surface of the reinforcement rod, and the long strip hole is in the same direction as the length direction of the reinforcement rod. The lower end of the adjusting rod passes through the long strip hole and is fixedly connected with an adjusting block that abuts against the bottom surface of the adjusting rod.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, during the process of the vacuum pump evacuating the connection hole, the air pressure in the piston hole gradually decreases. At this time, the piston block gradually slides upward along the piston hole. The upward sliding of the piston block drives the adjusting rod and the adjusting block to rise. The rising of the adjusting block gradually pushes the reinforcement rod to rotate upward. During this process, the adjusting rod slides relative to the long strip hole. It is not necessary to add other driving forces to drive the rotation of the reinforcement rod, which saves resources relatively.

[0013] Preferably, a support rod is fixedly connected to one end of the reinforcement rod close to the mounting block. The end of the support rod away from the reinforcement rod is rotatably connected with an additional rod, and the additional rod rotates in the plane where the upper surface of the reinforcement rod is located.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when the additional rod is rotated in the direction away from the reinforcement rod and forms a certain angle with the reinforcement rod, when the reinforcement rod abuts against the bottom surface of the battery string, the additional rod also abuts against the bottom surface of the battery string. In this way, it is convenient for the reinforcement component to better support the battery string.

[0015] Preferably, a fixing block is fixedly connected to the bottom surface, one end of the reinforcing rod is fixedly connected to a connecting shaft, the connecting shaft is rotatably connected to the fixing block, one end of the additional rod close to the connecting shaft is fixedly connected to a transmission shaft, the transmission shaft is rotatably connected to the support rod, a bevel gear is coaxially fixed to one end of the connecting shaft close to the transmission shaft, and a bevel gear is also coaxially fixed to the transmission shaft, and the two bevel gears are meshed with each other.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, during the process of the reinforcing rod rotating towards the mounting block, the rotation of the reinforcing rod drives the rotation of the connecting shaft, and the rotation of the connecting shaft drives the rotation of the transmission shaft through the two bevel gears. The rotation of the transmission shaft drives the additional rod to gradually move away from the reinforcing rod. At the same time, the rotation of the reinforcing rod drives the additional rod to move towards the mounting block together through the support rod, which is convenient and simple.

[0017] Preferably, the mounting block includes a block body and an elastic pad arranged up and down, and the block body is fixedly connected to the elastic pad.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the arrangement of the elastic pad facilitates the elastic pad to better press against the upper surface of the battery string, thereby facilitating the formation of negative pressure in the suction holes and facilitating the adsorption and lifting of the battery string by the mounting block.

[0019] Preferably, the lower end of the suction hole is flared.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, it is convenient for the suction holes to better adsorb the battery string.

[0021] Preferably, a bar code printer for printing bar codes and a three-axis manipulator for picking and placing bar codes are installed on the support frame.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the bar code printer prints out the required bar codes, and then the three-axis manipulator takes the bar codes printed by the bar code printer and then places them between the battery string and the back panel. The degree of automation is good, which is convenient for improving work efficiency.

[0023] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0024] 1. The mounting block adsorbs the battery string and drives the battery string to move away from the back panel, which saves human resources. By adsorbing the battery string to drive the battery string to lift and lower, the situation of external force damaging the battery string is reduced;

[0025] 2. The reinforcing rod gives a certain supporting force to the battery string, which is beneficial for the lifting assembly to drive the battery string to move towards or away from the back panel;

Detailed Description of the Embodiments

[0032] The following further elaborates on the present application in conjunction with the attached Figures 1-4 for a more detailed description.

[0033] The embodiments of the present application disclose a laminated automatic bar code pasting device for photovoltaic modules. Referring to Figure 1 , the laminated automatic bar code pasting device includes a support frame 1, and a conveying component for conveying photovoltaic modules is installed on the support frame 1. The conveying component includes a plurality of narrow conveyor belts 2, and the plurality of narrow conveyor belts 2 are arranged in parallel. The length direction of the narrow conveyor belt 2 is the conveying direction of the photovoltaic module.

[0034] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the photovoltaic module includes a back panel 3 placed on the conveying component, and a battery string 31 is placed on the upper surface of the back panel 3. A bar code printer 4 and a three-axis manipulator 5 are provided on one side of the conveying component, and both the bar code printer 4 and the three-axis manipulator 5 are fixedly connected to the support frame 1. A lifting component 6 for adjusting the lifting of the edge of the battery string 31 close to the three-axis manipulator 5 is also installed on the support frame 1.

[0035] The barcode printer 4 is used to print the barcode that needs to be attached to the photovoltaic module, and the three-axis manipulator 5 includes a manipulator for taking and placing the barcode. When working, the lifting component 6 adjusts the edge of one side of the battery string 31 to rise. At this time, there is a gap between the battery string 31 and the back panel 3. At the same time, the barcode printer 4 prints the barcode that needs to be attached to the photovoltaic module. Then the three-axis manipulator 5 takes the barcode on the barcode printer 4 and places it between the battery string 31 and the back panel 3. Finally, the battery string 31 is adjusted to descend by the lifting component 6, and the installation of the barcode in the single photovoltaic module is completed at this time. The manipulator in the three-axis manipulator 5 can be a clamp or a label suction head.

[0036] The lifting assembly 6 includes a telescopic member arranged above the conveying assembly, the upper end of the telescopic member is fixedly connected to the support frame 1, and the lower end is fixedly connected to the mounting block 62. The bottom surface of the mounting block 62 is provided with a plurality of suction holes 621, and the lower end of each suction hole 621 is flared. The upper ends of the plurality of suction holes 621 are provided with a connecting hole 622, which is opened inside the mounting block 62 and connects the plurality of suction holes 621. A suction pipe 63 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting block 62, one end of the suction pipe 63 is connected to the connecting hole 622, and the other end extends in a direction away from the mounting block 62 and is fixedly connected to a vacuum pump.

[0037] Adjust the telescopic part to extend, and the telescopic part can drive the mounting block 62 to move closer to the conveying assembly until the bottom surface of the mounting block 62 contacts the upper surface of the battery string 31, and the battery string 31 blocks the opening of each suction hole 621. Then start the vacuum pump, and the vacuum pump evacuates each suction hole 621 through the suction pipe 63 and the connecting hole 622, and the mounting block 62 absorbs the battery string 31. Then adjust the telescopic part to shorten, and the telescopic part can drive the mounting block 62 to rise, and the rise of the mounting block 62 drives one side of the battery string 31 to rise.

[0038] The telescopic member includes a cylinder 61 , the upper end of which is fixedly connected to the support frame 1 , and the piston of the cylinder 61 is vertically arranged downward and fixedly connected to the mounting block 62 .

[0039] The mounting block 62 includes a block body and an elastic pad, wherein the elastic pad is arranged below the block body and is fixedly connected to the block body. Therefore, when the mounting block 62 adsorbs the battery string 31, the elastic pad can better contact the upper surface of the battery string 31, making it easier for the mounting block 62 to adsorb the battery string 31.

[0040] In order to strengthen the stability of the telescopic member driving the battery string 31 to rise and fall, a reinforcement component 7 is connected to the mounting block 62 .

[0041] The reinforcement component 7 is located on the side of the photovoltaic component close to the three-axis mechanical axis. The reinforcement component 7 includes two fixing blocks 71 fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the mounting block 62, and a connecting shaft 72 is rotatably connected between the two fixing blocks 71. The reinforcement component 7 further includes a reinforcing rod 73. One end of the reinforcing rod 73 is located between the two fixing blocks 71. The reinforcing rod 73 is penetrated by the connecting shaft 72 and fixedly connected to the connecting shaft 72. The reinforcing rod 73 gradually slopes downward in the direction close to the photovoltaic component, and an adjusting member 74 for adjusting the rotation of the reinforcing rod 73 in the direction close to or away from the mounting plate is connected to the reinforcing rod 73.

[0042] A long strip hole 731 is formed on the upper surface of the reinforcing rod 73, and the long strip hole 731 penetrates to the lower surface of the reinforcing rod 73 and is the same as the length direction of the reinforcing rod 73. A piston hole 623 is formed on the bottom surface of the mounting block 62, and the piston hole 623 is arranged vertically upward and communicates with one end of the connecting hole 622. The adjusting member 74 includes an adjusting rod 741 arranged in the vertical direction. The upper end of the adjusting rod 741 is fixedly connected with an elastic piston block 742, and the piston block 742 is slidably clamped with the piston hole 623. The lower end of the adjusting rod 741 passes through the long strip hole 731 and is fixedly connected with an adjusting block 743, and the adjusting block 743 abuts against the bottom surface of the reinforcing rod 73.

[0043] During the process of starting the vacuum pump to drive the air extraction of the suction hole 621, the suction pipe 63 sucks air into the piston hole 623 through the connecting hole 622. At this time, the piston block 742 gradually moves upward. The upward movement of the piston block 742 drives the adjusting rod 741 and the adjusting block 743 to move upward, and the upward movement of the adjusting block 743 pushes the reinforcing rod 73 to rotate upward.

[0044] During the process that the mounting block 62 adsorbs the battery string 31 and drives the edge of one side of the battery string 31 to rise, the reinforcing rod 73 gradually rotates in the direction close to the mounting block 62 until the end of the reinforcing rod 73 far from the fixing block 71 abuts against the lower surface of the rising position of the battery string 31. In this way, the connection between the mounting block 62 and the battery string 31 is strengthened.

[0045] Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In order to further improve the stability of the reinforcement component 7 in supporting the battery string 31, the reinforcement component 7 further includes an additional rod 75. One end of the additional rod 75 close to the connecting shaft 72 is fixedly connected with a transmission shaft 76, and the transmission shaft 76 is perpendicularly arranged to the connecting shaft 72. One end of the reinforcing rod 73 close to the connecting shaft 72 is fixedly connected with a support rod 77, and the support rod 77 extends in the direction close to the transmission shaft 76. The transmission shaft 76 perpendicularly penetrates the additional rod 75 and the lower end of the transmission shaft 76 is rotatably connected with the support rod 77. One end of the connecting shaft 72 close to the transmission shaft 76 is coaxially fixedly connected with a bevel gear 78, and the lower end of the transmission shaft 76 is also coaxially fixedly connected with a bevel gear 78, and the two bevel gears 78 mesh with each other.

[0046] During the process of the reinforcing rod 73 gradually rotating towards the mounting block 62, the rotation of the reinforcing rod 73 drives the rotation of the connecting shaft 72. The rotation of the connecting shaft 72 drives the rotation of the transmission rod through two bevel gears 78, and the rotation of the transmission rod drives the additional rod 75 to gradually rotate away from the reinforcing rod 73. At the same time, the upward rotation of the reinforcing rod 73 drives the accessory rod to gradually rotate upward through the support rod 77.

[0047] Referring to Figure 4 , when the reinforcing rod 73 abuts against the bottom surface of the battery string 31, the additional rod 75 stops moving away from the reinforcing rod 73, and at the same time, the additional rod 75 also abuts against the bottom surface of the battery string 31. In this way, the area of the reinforcing component 7 supporting the battery string 31 is increased, and the stability of the reinforcing component 7 supporting the battery string 31 is improved.

[0048] The implementation principle of a laminated automatic bar code pasting device for a photovoltaic module according to an embodiment of the present application is as follows: when a single photovoltaic module is conveyed to the position of the support frame 1, the air cylinder 61 is started, so that the air cylinder 61 drives the mounting block 62 to descend until the bottom surface of the mounting block 62 closely adheres to the upper surface of the battery string 31. Subsequently, the vacuum pump is started to make the mounting block 62 adsorb the battery string 31. Then the air cylinder 61 is started, and the air cylinder 61 drives one side of the mounting block 62 and the battery string 31 to rise, and at the same time, the vacuum pump continues to adsorb the battery string 31, and the reinforcing rod 73 gradually rotates upward and abuts against the lower surface of the battery string 31.

[0049] At the same time, the bar code printer 4 prints the required bar code on the photovoltaic module, and then the three-axis manipulator 5 takes and places the bar code between the battery string 31 and the back panel 3.

[0050] Subsequently, the air cylinder 61 drives the mounting block 62 and the battery string 31 to descend. During this process, the vacuum pump deflates so that the battery string 31 is detached from the adsorption of the mounting block 62, and the battery string 31 gradually presses down the reinforcing rod 73 by its own gravity, thereby driving the reinforcing rod 73 to rotate downward until the battery string 31 is reset.

[0051] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereby. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
