[0023] The present invention provides the following embodiments.
[0024] Example 1
[0025] This invention provides a photovoltaic module transport device, including a base plate 1, a plurality of movable wheels 2 are provided on the periphery of the bottom end of the base plate 1, a push plate 3 is installed on one side of the top end of the base plate 1, and a photovoltaic module fixing mechanism is provided inside the base plate 1.
[0026] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: This invention, by setting a photovoltaic module fixing mechanism within the base plate 1, effectively fixes all photovoltaic modules by placing them on the base plate 1 and then activating the fixing mechanism, thus facilitating the transportation of the photovoltaic modules. Furthermore, by vertically stacking the photovoltaic modules and using the fixing mechanism to achieve vertical separation and fixation, it effectively prevents internal damage caused by the stacking and squeezing of the photovoltaic modules. This improves upon the prior art's problem that most planar photovoltaic panel modules are transported by stacking and trolleys during production and testing. This method can lead to internal damage due to the stacking and squeezing of the panels, and the modules are also prone to scattering during transportation.
[0027] Example 2
[0028] Based on Example 1, such as Figure 1 As shown, the photovoltaic module transport device comprises a photovoltaic module fixing mechanism consisting of a driving component and a fixing component.
[0029] Optionally, the fixing assembly includes: a wedge block 4, the top end of which is slidably connected to the inner wall of the cavity 9 of the base plate 1, and the bottom end of the wedge block 4 is fixedly installed on the slider 5, the slider 5 is slidably connected to the long rod 7, one end of the L-shaped rod 6 is fixedly installed on the right side of the wedge block 4, and the other end of the L-shaped rod 6 is slidably connected to the long rod 7, one end of the return spring 8 is fixedly installed on the L-shaped rod 6, and the other end of the return spring 8 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cavity 9 of the base plate 1, one end of several fixing rods 10 is fixedly installed on the L-shaped rod 6, and the other end of the fixing rods 10 penetrates the base plate 1 and cooperates with several fixing rods 21, and the space between the fixing rods 10 and the fixing rods 21 is used to place the photovoltaic module 12, several rubber pads 20 are fixedly installed at the contact ends of the fixing rods 10 and the fixing rods 21 with the photovoltaic module 12, the fixing rods 10 are slidably connected to the opening at the top of the base plate 1, and the fixing rods 21 are fixedly installed at the top of the base plate 1.
[0030] Optionally, the drive assembly includes: a drive box 13, which is fixedly connected to the push plate 3, and the bottom end of the drive box 13 is connected to the base plate 1; the fixed end of the electric telescopic rod 14 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the top of the drive box 13, and the output end of the electric telescopic rod 14 is fixedly installed on the slider 15; the right end of the slider 15 is slidably connected in the slide groove 16 provided in the drive box 13; one end of the short rod 17 is fixedly installed on the slider 15, and the other end of the short rod 17 is hinged to the roller 18; the left side of the wedge block 4 is provided with a slope that is lower on the left and higher on the right, and the roller 18 is in contact with the slope of the wedge block 4; one end of the return spring 19 is fixedly installed on the slider 15, and the other end of the return spring 19 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the slide groove 16.
[0031] The working principle of the above technical solution is as follows: When it is necessary to transport the photovoltaic module 12, the photovoltaic module 12 is first placed between the first fixed rod 10 and the second fixed rod 11 in sequence. Then, the electric telescopic rod 14 is activated. The electric telescopic rod 14 moves downward, causing the second slider 15 to slide in the first groove 16. This causes the short rod 17, which is fixedly connected to the second slider 15, to move downward, causing the roller 18 to move downward, thereby squeezing the wedge block 4. While squeezing, the wedge block 4 causes the slider 5 to move to the right. While the wedge block 4 moves to the right, it also causes the L-shaped rod 6 to move to the right. While the L-shaped rod 6 moves on the long rod 7, it causes the fixed rod 10, which is fixedly connected to it, to move to the right, thereby clamping and fixing the photovoltaic module 12 between the first fixed rod 10 and the second fixed rod 11. Then, the staff transports the photovoltaic module 12 under the action of the push plate 3 and the moving wheel 2.
[0032] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: By setting the electric telescopic rod 14, it is beneficial to achieve automatic clamping and fixing of the photovoltaic module 12. Moreover, by setting the electric telescopic rod 14, it is beneficial to control the clamping force acting on each photovoltaic module 12 to be consistent, thereby preventing excessive or insufficient clamping force from damaging the photovoltaic module 12 or insufficient clamping force from causing the photovoltaic module 12 to loosen between the fixing rod 10 and the fixing rod 11. By setting the rubber pad 20, it is beneficial to reduce the vibration of the photovoltaic module 12 and increase the friction between the pad and the photovoltaic module 12, thereby improving the clamping efficiency. By setting the moving wheel 2, it is beneficial to realize the transportation of the photovoltaic module 12. By setting the return spring 8 and the cavity 9, it is beneficial to realize the reset of the electric telescopic rod 14 and the L-shaped rod 6. By setting the wedge block 4 and the roller 18, it is beneficial to realize the left and right movement of the wedge block 4, thereby achieving the clamping effect, which is very convenient and practical.
[0033] Example 3
[0034] Based on Examples 1-2, such as Figure 2-4 As shown, a concave frame 21 is fixedly installed on the push plate 3 at the top of the base plate 1. A photovoltaic module conveying mechanism is provided inside the concave frame 21. The photovoltaic module conveying mechanism consists of a lifting component and a conveying component.
[0035] Optionally, the lifting assembly consists of two symmetrical sets, each comprising: a second electric telescopic rod 23, the fixed end of which is hinged to a first fixed block 22, the output end of which is hinged to a moving rod 24, and the first fixed block 22 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the concave frame 21; one end of the moving rod 24 is hinged to a second roller 43, which is in rolling contact with the inner wall of the concave frame 21; the other end of the moving rod 24 is hinged to a second fixed block 25; one end of an elastic connector 26 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the top of the concave frame 21; the other end of the elastic connector 26 is connected to a conveying assembly; and the second fixed block 25 is connected to the conveying assembly.
[0036] Optionally, the conveying assembly includes: a frame 27, the top end of which is fixedly connected to a fixing block 25 and an elastic connector 26; a drive motor 28 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the frame 27; the output shaft of the drive motor 28 is fixedly mounted on one end of a threaded rod 29; the other end of the threaded rod 29 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the frame 27; a plurality of sliders 30 are threadedly connected to the threaded rod 29; a rectangular block 31 is fixedly mounted on the bottom end of the sliders 30; the rectangular block 31 is slidably connected to a long rod 32; both ends of the long rod 32 are fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the frame 27; and a conveying unit is provided at the bottom end of the rectangular block 31.
[0037] Optionally, the conveying unit includes: a motor 33, which is fixedly installed inside the rectangular block 31, and a rotating shaft 34 is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor 33. A drive wheel 35 is fixedly installed on the rotating shaft 34. One end of a threaded rod 36 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the cavity 37 provided in the rectangular block 31, and the other end of the threaded rod 36 passes through the cavity 37 and is fixedly connected to the rotating block 38. A slider 39 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 36. The bottom end of the slider 39 is fixedly installed on the frame 40, and a rotating shaft 41 is rotatably connected inside the frame 40. A driven wheel 42 is fixedly installed on the rotating shaft 41.
[0038] The working principle of the above technical solution is as follows: When the photovoltaic module 12 is too heavy, and it is impossible to remove the photovoltaic module 12 from the base plate 1 by simply pulling it manually, the photovoltaic module conveying mechanism can be used to assist in the removal. First, the user rotates the rotating block 38, causing the slider 4 39 to move left and right on the threaded rod 2 36, thereby controlling the frame 2 40 to move left and right, so that the distance between the driven wheel 42 and the driving wheel 35 is the same as the width of the photovoltaic module 12. Then, the drive motor 28 is started, and the drive motor 28 rotates to drive the slider 3 30 to move left and right on the threaded rod 1 29, thereby moving the driven wheel 42 and the driving wheel 35 to directly above the photovoltaic module 12. Then, the electric telescopic rod 23 is started. 23 stretches, causing the movable rod 24, which is hinged to it, to move towards the end closer to the elastic connector 26. The movement of the movable rod 24 causes the elastic connector 26 to move downward. As the elastic connector 26 moves downward, the roller 43 rolls on the inner wall of the concave frame 21 towards the end closer to the elastic connector 26, thereby moving the frame 27 downward. This further allows the photovoltaic module 12 to be inserted between the driven wheel 42 and the driving wheel 35. Finally, the motor 33 is started. The rotation of the motor 33 drives the rotating shaft 34 to rotate, which in turn drives the driving wheel 35, which is fixedly connected to it, to rotate. This allows the photovoltaic module 12 to move under the action of the driven wheel 42 and the driving wheel 35, thereby assisting the staff in removing the photovoltaic module 12.
[0039] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: By setting the rotating block 38 and the slider 39, it is beneficial to control the left and right position of the frame 40, thereby adjusting the distance between the driven wheel 42 and the driving wheel 35 when dealing with photovoltaic modules 12 of different widths; By setting the driven wheel 42 and the driving wheel 35, it is beneficial to assist the staff in taking out the photovoltaic module 12 under the action of the motor 33; By setting the drive motor 28 and the slider 30, it is beneficial to adjust the left and right movement of the rectangular block 31, thereby moving it directly above the photovoltaic module 12, making it convenient to clamp the photovoltaic module 12; By setting the electric telescopic rod 23 and the roller 43, it is beneficial to realize the up and down movement of the frame 27, thereby realizing the adjustment and adaptation to photovoltaic modules 12 of different heights; By setting the elastic connector 26, it is beneficial to realize the reset of the frame 27; By setting the concave frame 21, it is beneficial to prevent the top of the photovoltaic module 12 from shifting left and right due to inertia during transportation, which is very convenient and practical.
