Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of photovoltaic module manufacturing technology, and in particular to a material laying device and a material laying method. Background Technology

[0002] The busbars of photovoltaic modules are prone to reflection under sunlight, which disrupts the uniformity of the visual effect. In addition, the busbars of photovoltaic modules are damaged by high temperatures during the welding process, resulting in uneven appearance of some busbars and affecting the aesthetics of the photovoltaic modules.

[0003] In existing processes, a robotic arm lifts the photovoltaic module's cell strings, then a manual person places a shading strip onto the photovoltaic module's glass. Finally, the robotic arm lowers and resets, placing the cell strings on the glass and pressing the busbars onto the shading strips to block the busbars. However, this method of placing the shading strips is labor-intensive and inefficient. Furthermore, the lifting and lowering of the cell strings poses a certain danger to workers, especially as the placement process could easily result in injury from crushed cells.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to study a material laying device to solve the problems of high labor intensity, low efficiency and danger in the process of laying shading strips. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a material laying device and a material laying method to solve the problems of high labor intensity, low efficiency and danger in the process of laying light-shielding strips.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

The feeding mechanism is used to feed material to the cutting mechanism. The clamping mechanism can clamp the material passing through the cutting opening of the cutting mechanism. When the clamping mechanism is clamping the material, the cutting mechanism cuts the material to form a piece to be placed. The clamping mechanism can place the piece to be placed in the placing mechanism. The transfer mechanism is used to transfer the piece to be placed in the placing mechanism to the laying position.

[0008] As an optional technical solution for a material laying device, the feeding mechanism includes a feeding bracket, a support member, a supporting power member, and a feeding shaft. The feeding shaft is rotatably mounted on the feeding bracket, and the rolled material is sleeved on the feeding shaft. The support member is mounted on the feeding bracket, and the supporting power member is mounted on the feeding bracket and is connected to the support member in a transmission manner. The supporting power member is used to drive the support member to always support the rolled material.

[0009] As an optional technical solution for a material laying device, the feeding mechanism includes a correction component, which is used to keep the rolled material in the center position of the feeding shaft.

[0010] As an optional technical solution for a material laying device, the correction component includes a correction element, a sensing element, and a correction power element. The correction element is disposed on the feeding bracket, and the correction power element is disposed on the feeding bracket and is connected to the correction element in a transmission manner. The support element, the support power element, and the feeding shaft are all disposed on the correction element. The sensing element is disposed on the correction element and is used to sense the rolled material and generate a sensing signal. The correction power element can drive the correction element to move from the initial position to the working position according to the sensing signal. When the correction element is in the working position, the feeding mechanism can move the rolled material to the center position of the cutting opening.

[0011] As an optional technical solution for a material laying device, the cutting mechanism includes a cutting bracket, a stop assembly, a cutting blade, and a cutting blade power component. The stop assembly is disposed on the cutting bracket and is used to fix the material. The cutting blade is slidably disposed on the cutting bracket and located downstream of the stop assembly. The cutting blade power component is disposed on the cutting bracket and is connected to the cutting blade in a transmission manner, and drives the cutting blade to move closer to or away from the cutting surface of the cutting bracket.

[0012] As an optional technical solution for a material laying device, the stop assembly includes a cutting and fixing shaft, a cutting and fixing power component, a cutting and movable frame, and a cutting and movable shaft. The cutting and fixing shaft is rotatably mounted on the cutting support. The cutting and fixing power component is mounted on the cutting support and is connected to the cutting and fixing shaft in a transmission manner. The cutting and movable frame is mounted on the cutting support. The cutting and movable shaft is rotatably mounted on the cutting and movable frame and has a stop state that is close to the cutting and fixing shaft and clamps the material, and a release state that is away from the cutting and fixing shaft and releases the material.

[0013] As an optional technical solution for a material laying device, the clamping mechanism includes a clamping bracket, a clamping moving component, a flipping component, and a clamping component. The clamping moving component is located on the clamping bracket, the flipping component is located at the output end of the clamping moving component, and the clamping component is located at the output end of the flipping component. The flipping component can drive the clamping component to change the angle of the workpiece to be placed.

[0014] As an optional technical solution for a material laying device, the placement mechanism includes a placement bracket with a clearance groove for avoiding the clamping component. The part to be placed is placed on the placement bracket and spans the clearance groove.

[0015] As an optional technical solution for a material laying device, the transfer mechanism includes a transfer bracket, a transfer linkage component, a transfer suction cup, and a pressing component. The transfer linkage component is located on the transfer bracket, the transfer suction cup is located at the output end of the transfer linkage component and can move between the placement mechanism and the laying position, and the pressing component is located at the output end of the transfer linkage component. The output end of the pressing component can move between an abutment position and an avoidance position. The pressing component located at the abutment position can press the object to be placed against the laying position.

[0016] On the other hand, the present invention provides a material laying method, applicable to the material laying device in any of the above-mentioned solutions, comprising the following steps:

[0017] S1. Feeding materials to the cutting mechanism through the feeding mechanism;

[0019] S3. The cutting mechanism performs cutting to obtain the required piece to be placed.

[0020] S4. The clamping mechanism places the item to be placed into the placement mechanism;

[0021] S5. The transfer mechanism moves the item to be placed from the placement mechanism to the laying position.

[0022] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0023] This invention provides a material laying device and a material laying method. The material laying device includes a feeding mechanism, a cutting mechanism, a clamping mechanism, a placing mechanism, and a transfer mechanism arranged sequentially. The feeding mechanism feeds material to the cutting mechanism. The clamping mechanism can clamp the material passing through the cutting opening of the cutting mechanism for turnover. While the clamping mechanism is holding the material, the cutting mechanism cuts the material to form a light-shielding strip. The clamping mechanism can place the light-shielding strip in the placing mechanism. The transfer mechanism is used to transfer the light-shielding strip located in the placing mechanism to the laying position. The above arrangement realizes the automated operation of material feeding, cutting, transfer, and placement, improves the laying efficiency of light-shielding strips, and reduces labor intensity. Since the cutting mechanism cuts the material to form a light-shielding strip while the clamping mechanism is holding the material, the material will not retract during this process. After the cutting mechanism completes the cutting, the light-shielding strip is already on the clamping mechanism. The transfer action of the clamping mechanism can be started at the moment the cutting is completed, which greatly improves the production cycle. In addition, the placement action of the light-shielding strip is completed by the transfer mechanism, which improves the safety of workers. Attached Figure Description

[0057] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0058] Example 1

[0059] The busbar 4 of the photovoltaic module is prone to reflection under sunlight, which disrupts the uniformity of the visual effect. In addition, the busbar 4 of the photovoltaic module suffers a certain degree of high-temperature damage during the welding process, resulting in uneven appearance of some busbar 4 and affecting the aesthetics of the photovoltaic module.

[0060] In the existing process, the light-shielding strip 1 is manually placed over the busbar 4 to shield it. However, this method is labor-intensive and inefficient.

[0061] To address the issues of high labor intensity and low efficiency in the installation of light-shielding strips 1, this embodiment provides a material laying device, such as... Figure 1-20 As shown, the material laying device includes a feeding mechanism 100, a cutting mechanism 200, a clamping mechanism 300, a placement mechanism 400, and a transfer mechanism 500 arranged in sequence. The feeding mechanism 100 is used to feed material to the cutting mechanism 200. The clamping mechanism 300 can clamp the material passing through the cutting opening of the cutting mechanism 200. When the clamping mechanism 300 is clamping the material, the cutting mechanism 200 cuts the material and forms a piece to be placed. The clamping mechanism 300 can place the piece to be placed in the placement mechanism 400. The transfer mechanism 500 is used to transfer the piece to be placed in the placement mechanism 400 to the laying position.

[0062] The above setup automates the feeding, cutting, transfer, and placement of materials, improving the laying efficiency of the light-shielding strip 1 and reducing labor intensity. Since the material is held in place by the clamping mechanism 300 while the cutting mechanism 200 cuts the material to form the light-shielding strip 1, the material does not retract during this process. After the cutting mechanism 200 completes the cutting, the light-shielding strip 1 is already on the clamping mechanism 300, allowing the clamping mechanism 300 to initiate its transfer action instantly upon completion of the cutting, significantly improving production cycle time. Furthermore, the placement of the light-shielding strip 1 is completed by the transfer mechanism 500, enhancing worker safety.

[0063] In this embodiment, the material is light-shielding tape, specifically black single-sided tape, and the component to be placed is light-shielding strip 1. It should be noted that the light-shielding tape is cut to size to form light-shielding strip 1. Light-shielding strip 1 is a light-shielding tape with light-shielding function, using a black film as the substrate, and possesses excellent shielding and insulation properties. The laying of light-shielding strip 1 ensures that the photovoltaic module maintains a consistent color. In other embodiments, the component to be placed can be other structures that require placement, and is not limited to these. For example, the component to be placed can also be a block-shaped product or component.

[0064] During storage or use, rolls of light-shielding tape may develop irregularities on their outer perimeter. This can cause the length of the tape to be pulled out at different angles during the feeding process, resulting in inconsistent dimensions of the light-shielding strip 1.

[0065] Regarding the structure of the feeding mechanism 100, in this embodiment, the feeding mechanism 100 includes a feeding bracket 110, a support member 120, a supporting power member 130, and a feeding shaft 140. The feeding shaft 140 is rotatably mounted on the feeding bracket 110, and a roll of light-shielding tape is sleeved on the feeding shaft 140. The support member 120 is mounted on the feeding bracket 110, and the supporting power member 130 is mounted on the feeding bracket 110 and is drively connected to the support member 120. The supporting power member 130 is used to drive the support member 120 to always support the roll of light-shielding tape. This arrangement enables the feeding of light-shielding tape during the rotation of the feeding shaft 140. In addition, the support component 120 ensures that the roll of light-shielding tape is always supported, reducing the load on the feed shaft 140. Furthermore, the roll of light-shielding tape is continuously shaped during rotation, maintaining its cylindrical structure and improving the accuracy of feeding, thereby enhancing the consistency of the dimensions of the light-shielding strip 1.

[0066] It should be noted that the supporting dynamic component 130 can be controlled through program settings, thereby enabling the supporting component 120 to follow the movement and always maintain contact with the rolled light-blocking tape. For example, calculations can be performed based on the thickness and rotation angle of the light-blocking tape to continuously determine the radius of the rolled light-blocking tape, thereby adjusting the position of the supporting component 120.

[0067] In this embodiment, one end of the support member 120 is hinged to the feeding bracket 110, one end of the supporting power member 130 is hinged to the feeding bracket 110, and the other end is hinged to the middle position of the support member 120. The other end of the support member 120 is used to support the roll of light-blocking tape. The supporting power member 130 can be an electric push rod.

[0068] In this embodiment, the feeding shaft 140 is an air-expanding shaft, which can feed and stop the roll of light-blocking tape by tensioning it. The feeding shaft 140 is driven by a material transfer power component. The rotation of the feeding shaft 140 causes the roll of light-blocking tape to rotate, thereby conveying the light-blocking tape forward.

[0069] It should be noted that the blackout tape itself is elastic and will not wrinkle or pile up during natural movement.

[0070] In this embodiment, the roll of light-shielding tape is placed inside the feeding mechanism 100. After one end of the light-shielding tape is pulled out, it is conveyed downstream. If the roll of light-shielding tape is not positioned accurately when placed on the feeding shaft 140, it will cause the position of the cut light-shielding strip 1 to deviate, resulting in a deviation in its position on the placement mechanism 400. In addition, during use, the roll of light-shielding tape may also move axially relative to the feeding shaft 140, thereby causing a deviation in the position of the cut light-shielding strip 1.

[0071] To address the aforementioned issues, in this embodiment, the feeding mechanism 100 includes a correction component, which is used to maintain the roll of light-shielding tape in the center of the feeding shaft 140.

[0072] Specifically, the correction assembly includes a correction component 160, a sensing component 170, and a correction power component 180. The correction component 160 is slidably mounted on the feeding bracket 110 along the X direction. The correction power component 180 is mounted on the feeding bracket 110 and is connected to the correction component 160 in a transmission manner. The support component 120, the support power component 130, and the feeding shaft 140 are all mounted on the correction component 160. The sensing component 170 is mounted on the correction component 160. The sensing component 170 is used to sense the roll of light-blocking tape and generate a sensing signal. The correction power component 180 can drive the correction component 160 to move from the initial position to the working position according to the sensing signal. When the correction component 160 is in the working position, the feeding mechanism 100 can move the roll of light-blocking tape to the center position of the cutting edge. With the above-mentioned structure, when the roll of light-shielding tape is placed on the feed shaft 140, there is no need to consider the specific relative position. The sensing element 170 will control the correction element 160 to move to the center position of the cutting edge according to the sensing signal, thereby improving the placement efficiency of the roll of light-shielding tape and improving the accuracy of placing the light-shielding strip 1 in the placement mechanism 400.

[0073] In this embodiment, the correction element 160 is slidably disposed on the feeding bracket 110 along the X direction. The correction element 160 is connected to a slider, and a slide rail is disposed on the feeding bracket 110, allowing the slider to slide on the slide rail. The correction power element 180 can be an electric push rod. The correction element 160 has a plate-like structure, and two correction elements 160 are provided, arranged opposite to each other. The support element 120, the support power element 130, and the feeding shaft 140 are all disposed between the two correction elements 160. In other embodiments, the correction element 160 can be hinged to the feeding bracket 110, or other connection methods can be used, as long as it can drive the movement of the feeding shaft 140; this is not a limitation.

[0074] Two sensors 170 are provided, and two correction elements 160 are located at both ends of the roll of light-shielding tape. Each correction element 160 has a sensor 170. With the above arrangement, measurements can be taken at both ends of the roll of light-shielding tape, improving the accuracy of the measurement.

[0075] A support shaft 150 is positioned between two guide members 160 in the X direction and between the feed shaft 140 and the cutting opening in the Y direction, serving to support the light-shielding tape as it enters the cutting opening. Several support shafts 150 are provided, and the light-shielding tape passes sequentially through the gaps formed by the support shafts 150. The support shafts 150 serve two purposes: guiding the light-shielding tape and storing incoming material. Specifically, the X direction is perpendicular to the Y direction.

[0076] In other embodiments, the feed shaft 140 may not have power, and the power shaft is located downstream of the feed shaft 140. During the feeding process, the rolled light-shielding tape may shift relative to the feed shaft 140, causing the position of the light-shielding strip 1 to deviate. To solve this problem, both correction members 160 can be slidably disposed on the feed bracket 110 along the X direction and can slide relative to the feed shaft 140 along the X direction. The correction members 160 are specifically controlled in the same way as the sensing element 170 generates a sensing signal and controls the correction power member 180. In this embodiment, under normal operating conditions, the rolled light-shielding tape is located in the center of the roll shaft, and both correction members 160 are in their initial positions and do not contact the rolled light-shielding tape. When the rolled light-blocking tape is near the left-side guide member 160, the sensor 170 on the left-side guide member 160 senses the shortening of the distance between the rolled light-blocking tape and the left-side guide member 160 and generates a sensing signal. The guide member 180 drives the guide member 160 according to the sensing signal. The guide member 160, in its working position, moves the rolled light-blocking tape to the center position of the roll shaft, and then moves from the working position back to the initial position. Specifically, the sensor 170 on the left-side guide member 160 generates a sensing signal when the shortening of the distance between the rolled light-blocking tape and the left-side guide member 160 reaches a preset value. The preset value is greater than zero. This setting aims to prevent friction between the rolled light-blocking tape and the guide member 160 during rotation.

[0077] In this embodiment, the cutting mechanism 200 includes a cutting bracket 210, a stop assembly, a cutting blade 220, and a cutting blade power component 230. The stop assembly is disposed on the cutting bracket 210 and is used to fix the light-shielding tape. The cutting blade 220 is slidably disposed on the cutting bracket 210 and located downstream of the stop assembly. The cutting blade power component 230 is disposed on the cutting bracket 210 and is connected to the cutting blade 220 in a transmission manner, driving the cutting blade 220 to move closer to or away from the cutting surface of the cutting bracket 210. With the above configuration, the light-shielding tape can be cut. Furthermore, the stop assembly ensures that the light-shielding tape is fixed on both sides of the cutting blade 220 during the cutting process, preventing deviation and facilitating smooth cutting.

[0078] Regarding the stop assembly, in this embodiment, the stop assembly includes a cutting fixing shaft 240, a cutting fixing power component 250, a cutting movable frame 260, and a cutting movable shaft 270. The cutting fixing shaft 240 is rotatably mounted on the cutting bracket 210. The cutting fixing power component 250 is mounted on the cutting bracket 210 and is drively connected to the cutting fixing shaft 240. The cutting movable frame 260 is mounted on the cutting bracket 210, and the cutting movable shaft 270 is rotatably mounted on the cutting movable frame 260. It has a stop state where it is close to the cutting fixing shaft 240 and clamps the light-shielding tape, and a release state where it is away from the cutting fixing shaft 240 and releases the light-shielding tape. The light-shielding tape passes through the gap between the cutting movable shaft 270 and the cutting fixing shaft 240. With the above-mentioned structure, it can both transmit the light-blocking tape, realizing secondary transmission of the light-blocking tape, and squeeze the light-blocking tape to fix it, serving two purposes and reducing costs.

[0079] The movable cutting frame 260 is slidably mounted on the cutting bracket 210 along the Z-direction. The movable cutting drive 261 is mounted on the cutting bracket 210, and the output end of the movable cutting frame 260 and the movable cutting drive 261 are connected in a transmission manner. The movable cutting drive 261 can drive the movable cutting frame 260 to move closer to or away from the fixed cutting axis 240, and drive the movable cutting axis 270 to move closer to or away from the fixed cutting axis 240. Specifically, the X-direction, Y-direction and Z-direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0080] A vertical slide bar 231 is slidably mounted in the slide rail of the cutting bracket 210. A cutting blade 220 is mounted at one end of a vertical connecting rod 232, with one end of the connecting rod 232 hinged to the other end of the vertical slide bar 231. A cutting blade power unit 230 is mounted on the cutting bracket 210, and an eccentric wheel is provided at the output end of the cutting blade power unit 230. The other end of the connecting rod 232 is rotatably connected to the eccentric shaft of the eccentric wheel. The cutting blade power unit 230 can be a stepper motor. During the rotation of the cutting blade power unit 230, the vertical slide bar 231 is driven to reciprocate up and down along the Z direction through the eccentric wheel and the connecting rod 232, thereby causing the cutting blade 220 to move closer to or away from the cutting surface of the cutting bracket 210.

[0081] In this embodiment, the cutting mechanism 200 further includes a cutting ballast member 221, which is disposed on the cutting blade 220 and located upstream of the cutting blade 220. The cutting ballast member 221 is located downstream of the stop assembly. The cutting ballast member 221 is provided to prevent the light-shielding tape from rewinding after cutting.

[0091] The system includes several placement positions. In this embodiment, there are three placement positions, which are used to place three light-shielding strips 1. Compared to placing a single light-shielding strip 1, this configuration allows for a faster production cycle.

[0092] In conjunction with the aforementioned clamping and moving component 320, the placement of the light-shielding strip 1 and the smooth withdrawal of the clamping component 330 can be achieved. Specifically, when the light-shielding strip 1 is facing upwards, the opening of the clamping component 330 faces upstream. When the light-shielding strip 1 is placed on the placement bracket 410, the clamping component 330 releases the light-shielding strip 1 and first moves downstream a certain distance to move away from the light-shielding strip 1. Then it moves downwards so that the entire clamping component 330 can pass under the light-shielding strip 1. Then it moves upstream and moves upwards after passing under the light-shielding strip 1. Finally, it moves to the cutting end and clamps the light-shielding tape to be cut.

[0093] The placement mechanism 400 also includes a placement positioning member 420, which is disposed on the placement bracket 410.

The transfer suction cup 520 is disposed on the transfer lifting component 560.

[0097] Since the light-shielding strip 1 is a long strip structure, to maintain its flatness during the transfer process and prevent downward bending, in this embodiment, the transfer linkage assembly includes a transfer rod 580, and multiple transfer suction cups 520 are spaced apart on the transfer rod 580. The multiple transfer suction cups 520 ensure that the light-shielding strip 1 remains flat during the transfer process.

The buffer member can be a rubber block disposed at one end of the abutment member 531.

[0100] During use, the distance between two adjacent light-shielding strips 1 on the placement bracket 410 is much smaller than the distance at the laying position. In this embodiment, several transfer linkage components are provided, and the transfer suction cup 520 at the output end of each transfer linkage component is used to adsorb one light-shielding strip 1. Specifically, three transfer linkage components are provided, and the three transfer transverse components 540 are spaced apart along the Y direction. Each transfer linkage component is used to adsorb one light-shielding strip 1.

[0101] In another embodiment, two transfer linkage components are provided, each with a transfer suction cup 520 and a resisting component 530 at its output end; two transfer transverse components 540 are spaced apart along the Y direction. Specifically, the output end of the transfer linkage component farther from the placement mechanism 400 is provided with a row of transfer suction cups 520 for adsorbing one light-shielding strip 1, while the output end of the transfer linkage component closer to the placement mechanism 400 is provided with two rows of transfer suction cups 520 for adsorbing two light-shielding strips 1. The transfer linkage component farther from the placement mechanism 400 operates first, followed by the one closer to the placement mechanism 400, to improve production cycle time.

[0102] In this embodiment, the material laying device further includes a conveying mechanism 600 and a lifting mechanism 700. The conveying mechanism 600 is used to transfer the photovoltaic module to a preset position. The photovoltaic module includes glass 2 and a battery string 3 located on the glass 2. The lifting mechanism 700 is used to lift the battery string 3 to avoid the transfer mechanism 500 that places the light-shielding strip 1.

[0103] In this system, two adjacent battery strings 3 are connected by a busbar 4. The battery string is positioned directly opposite the busbar 4 in the Z-direction. The conveying mechanism 600 can transfer, position, and calibrate the photovoltaic modules. Specifically, the conveying mechanism 600 includes a conveying support 610, a drive wheel, a driven wheel, a conveying belt 620, and a power transmission component. The drive wheel and driven wheel are rotatably mounted on the conveying support 610. The power transmission component is located on the conveying support 610 and is connected to the drive wheel. The conveying belt is wound between the drive wheel and the driven wheel. The photovoltaic modules are transferred on the conveying belt. The conveying mechanism 600 also includes a positioning cylinder 630 mounted on the conveying support 610. The output end of the positioning cylinder 630 abuts against the photovoltaic module, stopping it and positioning it. The conveying belt extends along the X-direction, and two positioning cylinders 630 are spaced apart along the Y-direction, located on either side of the photovoltaic module. The two positioning cylinders 630 effectively clamp and position the photovoltaic module.

[0104] The positioning part is located at the output end of the positioning cylinder 630. The positioning part can be a rubber block structure. In other embodiments, the positioning part can be a positioning wheel 650. Two positioning wheels 650 spaced apart along the X direction are installed at the output end of each positioning cylinder 630.

In one embodiment of this invention, the photovoltaic module is square, and the two positioning wheels 650 respectively abut against opposite sides of the photovoltaic module. In another embodiment of this invention, the photovoltaic module is square, with one side of the photovoltaic module forming a 45-degree angle with the Y direction. During transportation, the position may shift. Under the clamping of four positioning wheels 650, one corner of the photovoltaic module is located between two positioning wheels 650 on one positioning plate 640, and the other corner is located between two positioning wheels 650 on another positioning plate 640. When the output ends of the two positioning cylinders 630 extend, the photovoltaic module is clamped and positioned in the standard position.

[0105] The lifting mechanism 700 includes a lifting bracket 710 and a lifting member 720. The lifting member 720 is slidably disposed on the lifting bracket 710 along the Z direction and is provided with a plurality of lifting suction cups 730. Specifically, a servo motor is disposed on the lifting bracket 710, a lead screw is rotatably disposed on the lifting bracket 710 and is connected to the servo motor for transmission, and a lifting nut is fixedly connected to the lifting member 720. The lifting nut and the lead screw are threadedly engaged. The servo motor drives the lead screw to rotate, thereby driving the lifting member 720 to rise and fall. In this embodiment, the lifting member includes a lifting plate, a crossbar, and a longitudinal bar. The crossbar extends along the Y direction, and the longitudinal bar extends along the X direction. The lifting plate is slidably disposed on the lifting bracket 710, and the two lifting plates are arranged opposite each other. The crossbar is disposed on the lifting plate, and a plurality of longitudinal bars are connected between the two crossbars. Each longitudinal bar is provided with a plurality of lifting suction cups 730. Among them, the lifting suction cups 730 include sponge suction nozzles.

[0106] The lifting mechanism 700 also includes a vacuum pressure gauge, which is used to monitor the vacuum pressure of the lifting suction cup 730, maintain the preset suction force, and improve the suction accuracy. An adjustment hole, which is a strip-shaped hole, is also provided between the crossbar and the lifting suction cup 730, allowing the lifting suction cup 730 to accommodate different battery models.

[0107] In this embodiment, the material laying device includes a detection mechanism 800, which is used to locate and detect the placement position of the light-shielding strip 1. Specifically, a vision camera is used in conjunction with a control system to calculate image data. During positioning, the laying position without the light-shielding strip 1 is photographed and compared to determine the specific location of the laying position, ensuring that the light-shielding strip 1 is placed within the acceptable range. After the light-shielding strip 1 is placed, the laying position with the light-shielding strip 1 is photographed and compared to confirm whether the placement of the light-shielding strip 1 meets the process requirements.

[0109] Example 2

[0110] This embodiment also provides a material laying method, applied to the material laying device in the above scheme, the material laying method including the following steps:

[0111] S1. Material is supplied to the cutting mechanism 200 through the feeding mechanism 100.

[0112] S2, The clamping mechanism 300 clamps the light-blocking tape that passes through the cutting opening of the cutting mechanism 200.

[0113] S3. The cutting mechanism 200 cuts the strip to obtain the required light-blocking strip 1.

[0114] S4. The clamping mechanism 300 places the light-blocking strip 1 into the placement mechanism 400.

[0115] S5, the transfer mechanism 500 transfers the light-shielding strip 1 located in the placement mechanism 400 to the laying position.

[0116] In step S1, the light-shielding tape is corrected by the correction component.

[0117] In step S5, the photovoltaic module is conveyed to a preset position via the conveying mechanism 600. The photovoltaic module includes glass 2 and a battery string 3 located on glass 2. The battery string 3 is lifted by the lifting mechanism, exposing the installation position. Then, the light-shielding strip 1 is placed at the installation position via the transfer mechanism 500. In this embodiment, the installation position is located on glass 2. In step S5, after the light-shielding strip 1 is placed at the installation position, the lifting mechanism 700 resets the battery string 3, that is, places the battery string 3 on glass 2, and the photovoltaic module is moved out of the preset position via the conveying mechanism 600.

[0118] Following step S5, step S6 is also included: the inspection mechanism 800 takes photos of the placement location where the light-shielding strip 1 is placed for comparison, and checks whether the placement location meets the placement process requirements. If the inspection is qualified, it proceeds to the next station; if the inspection is unqualified, it is transferred by the conveying mechanism 600 and enters the defective product channel for manual re-inspection.

[0119] In this embodiment, there are three light-shielding strips 1, spaced apart along the Y direction, and are defined as the first strip, the second strip, and the third strip. The first strip is downstream of the second strip, and the second strip is downstream of the third strip. The first strip faces upwards, meaning it does not need to be rotated. Depending on the specific working conditions, the second strip needs to face downwards, meaning it needs to be rotated 180°. The three placement positions can be defined as the first placement position, the second placement position, and the third placement position, each corresponding to one of the three light-shielding strips 1.

[0120] In step S4, the method for placing the light-shielding strip 1 in the placement mechanism 400 is as follows:

[0121] The method described in the first point, which will be referred to as the first method below for ease of explanation, includes the following steps:

[0122] Step S411: The clamping mechanism 300 clamps the light-blocking tape, and the cutting mechanism 200 cuts it to obtain the first strip and clamp it in the clamping assembly 330.

[0123] S412: The clamping lifting frame 323 is raised so that the clamping component 330 and the height of the first clamped bar are higher than the placement bracket 410 of the placement mechanism 400. It should be noted that initially, the height of the first clamped bar held by the clamping component 330 is the same as the height of the placement bracket 410. The clamping component 330 needs to be raised after clamping to avoid the placement positioning member 420 and move above the first placement position.

[0124] S413: The clamping and moving assembly 320 conveys the first strip away from the cutting mechanism 200 to the corresponding first strip placement position. Specifically, the clamping and moving assembly 320 conveys the first strip held by the clamping assembly 330 to the first placement position of the placement bracket 410, that is, away from the cutting mechanism 200. It enters the first placement position of the placement bracket 410 through the clearance groove 411 on the corresponding movement path of the clamping assembly 330, and waits to be placed. That is, the clamping assembly 330 is located in the clearance groove 411, and the first strip is located above the first placement position.

[0125] S414: The clamping lifting frame 323 descends, placing the first strip in the first placement position and clamping it in place. Specifically, after the clamping moving component 320 conveys the first strip held by the clamping component 330 to the top of the first placement position of the placement bracket 410, the clamping lifting frame 323 drives the clamping component 330 to descend, and the clamping component 330 releases its grip, allowing the first strip to be placed into the first placement position along the placement bracket 410 as a whole. First, the placement positioning members 420 provided on both sides of the first placement position form a limiting fixation, and then the placement power member 440 drives the placement fixing claw 430 to pass through the avoidance part 412 at the first placement position to achieve a second pressing and fixing of the first strip.

[0126] S415: The clamping moving component 320 continues to move away from the cutting mechanism 200 by a preset distance, and the clamping lifting frame 323 descends to avoid it. Specifically, after the first strip is placed in the first placement position, the clamping transverse frame 321 needs to move a certain distance at both ends to avoid the clamping component 330. The clamping lifting frame 323 then drives the clamping component 330 to descend, so that it avoids the first strip already placed on the front return path and passes under it.

[0127] S416: The clamping moving assembly 320 approaches the cutting mechanism 200 and resets to the clamping position of the light-shielding tape. Simultaneously, the clamping transverse frame 321 and the clamping lifting frame 323 reset. Specifically, while the clamping transverse frame 321 moves the clamping assembly 330 upstream, the clamping lifting frame 323 also rises and resets. This reduces waiting time and improves efficiency.

[0128] The placement method in Article 2, for ease of description, will be referred to as the second method below. The second method includes the following steps:

[0129] Step S421: The clamping mechanism 300 clamps the light-blocking tape, and the cutting mechanism 200 cuts it to obtain the second strip and clamp it in the clamping assembly 330.

[0130] S422: The clamping lifting frame 323 is raised so that the clamping component 330 and the second clamped bar are higher than the placement bracket 410 of the placement mechanism 400. It should be noted that initially, the second clamped bar held by the clamping component 330 is at the same height as the placement bracket 410. The clamping component 330 needs to be raised after clamping to avoid the placement positioning member 420 and move above the second placement position.

[0131] S423: The flipping rod 340 rotates, causing the second strip held by the clamping assembly 330 to flip over to the other side, and the clamping assembly 330's orientation changes from inside to outside, i.e., from facing upstream to facing downstream, to meet the placement requirements of the second strip. Specifically, the second strip needs to be flipped 180 degrees. The clamping assembly 330 clamps the second strip to the raised height and triggers the rotatable condition of the flipping rod 340, causing it to rotate. The rotation of the flipping power component 350 drives the driven wheel to rotate, which in turn drives the flipping rod 340 to rotate. The flipping rod 340 drives the rotating component 380 to rotate, and the rotating component 380 drives the connecting block 390 to rotate via the rotating shaft 370. The connecting block 390 then drives the clamping assembly 330 to rotate. This causes the clamping assembly 330 to flip the second strip 180 degrees to the other side facing upwards, and simultaneously adjusts the clamping direction of the clamping assembly 330 from facing upstream to facing downstream.

[0132] S424: The clamping and moving assembly 320 conveys the second strip away from the cutting mechanism 200 to the second placement position. Specifically, the clamping and moving assembly 320 conveys the second strip held by the clamping assembly 330 towards the second placement position of the placement bracket 410, i.e., away from the cutting mechanism 200. It enters the second placement position above the middle side of the placement bracket 410 through a clearance groove 411 on the corresponding movement path of the clamping assembly 330, ready for placement; that is, the clamping assembly 330 is located in the clearance groove 411, and the second strip is located above the second placement position.

[0133] S425: The clamping lifting frame 323 descends, placing the second strip in the second placement position and clamping it in place. Specifically, after the clamping moving component 320 conveys the second strip held by the clamping component 330 to the top of the second placement position of the placement bracket 410, the clamping lifting frame 323 drives the clamping component 330 to descend, and the clamping component 330 releases its grip, allowing the second strip to be placed into the second placement position along the placement bracket 410 as a whole. First, the placement positioning members 420 provided on both sides of the second placement position form a limiting fixation, and then the placement power component 440 drives the placement fixing claw 430 to pass through the avoidance part 412 at the second placement position to achieve a second pressing and fixing of the second strip.

[0134] S426: The clamping moving assembly 320 returns to its clamping position near the end of the cutting mechanism 200, while the clamping transverse frame 321 and the clamping lifting frame 323 simultaneously return to their original positions. Additionally, the flipping rod 340 rotates the clamping assembly 330 to its original position. Specifically, the clamping direction of the clamping assembly 330 changes from upstream to downstream. The clamping assembly 330 can be placed directly upstream of the second placement position on the middle side. That is, when the second strip is placed in the second placement position, the clamping assembly 330 is located upstream of the second strip. After placement, the clamping moving assembly 320 can be directly reset without needing to move a certain distance downstream to avoid the clamping assembly 330. Simultaneously, the clamping lifting frame 323 does not need to descend because its return path does not include the second strip. The clamping moving component 320 drives the clamping component 330 to reset back to its initial position for clamping the light-shielding tape. Simultaneously, the clamping horizontal moving frame 321 moves upstream, the clamping lifting frame 323 also rises and resets, and the flipping rod 340 rotates and resets, triggering a stop-rotation condition for the flipping rod 340. When the clamping component 330 reaches its reset position, the clamping lifting frame 323 and the flipping rod 340 also complete their reset. This configuration helps reduce waiting time, speeds up the assembly cycle, and improves assembly efficiency.

[0135] If the third item needs to be face up, refer to the first method; if the third item needs to be face down, refer to the second method. Accordingly, place the third item in the third placement position.

[0136] S5: The transfer mechanism 500 transfers the light-shielding strip 1 located in the placement mechanism 400 to the laying position.

[0137] The specific steps are as follows:

[0138] S51: After the transfer suction cup 520 of the transfer mechanism 500 picks up the light-shielding strip 1 and moves it to the laying position, it places the light-shielding strip 1 in the laying position.

[0139] S52: The abutting power component 532 drives the abutting component 531 to press down the light-shielding strip 1 so that the light-shielding strip 1 presses into the laying position.

[0140] S53: After the transfer suction cup 520 removes the vacuum and returns to its original position, the abutment power component 532 drives the abutment component 531 to detach from the light-shielding strip 1, and the light-shielding strip 1 is precisely placed in the laying position. This method can avoid the problems of the light-shielding strip 1 being difficult to place and / or rebounding during placement. In this embodiment, since the abutment end of the abutment component 531 is provided with a rubber block, when the transfer lifting component 560 rises, the transfer suction cup 520 leaves the light-shielding strip 1 first, and the abutment component 531 leaves the light-shielding strip 1 afterward, to ensure that the light-shielding strip 1 is not dragged upward by the transfer suction cup 520.
