Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of photovoltaic module manufacturing technology, and specifically to a photovoltaic module flipping and packaging device and packaging method. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, when packaging photovoltaic modules, a sorting machine is used to vertically place the photovoltaic modules onto a wooden pallet. Specifically, a packaging box, which is half the size of a normal packaging box, is placed on the wooden pallet, with its top and sides open. Then, suction cups on the sorting machine hold the photovoltaic modules, and a guide rail moves the robotic arm and the photovoltaic modules to the packaging box. After that, the robotic arm rotates the photovoltaic modules to adjust them from a horizontal to a vertical position. Then, the robotic arm puts the photovoltaic modules into the packaging box and sends them to the packaging production line for subsequent steps such as strapping, boxing, and film coating.

[0003] However, because the packaging box cannot effectively restrain the photovoltaic modules when the sorting machine is placing them, the photovoltaic modules often tilt. As a result, when the sorting machine places the next photovoltaic module, the next module will scratch the previous module, thus causing damage to the photovoltaic modules. Summary of the Invention

[0004] (I) The problem to be solved by the present invention is that the packaging box cannot effectively limit the photovoltaic modules when the sorting machine is placing them down, and the photovoltaic modules often tilt. As a result, when the sorting machine places the next photovoltaic module, the next photovoltaic module will scratch the previous photovoltaic module, thus causing damage to the photovoltaic modules.

[0005] (II) Technical Solution

[0006] A photovoltaic module flipping and packaging device includes a first pallet flipping mechanism and a second pallet flipping mechanism;

[0007] The photovoltaic module has a long side and a short side, and the photovoltaic module is placed on an iron tray;

[0008] The first pallet flipping mechanism is used to flip the long side of the photovoltaic module to flip the long side of the photovoltaic module onto the first wooden pallet;

[0009] The second pallet flipping mechanism is used to flip the short side of the photovoltaic module to flip the short side of the photovoltaic module onto the second wooden pallet.

[0010] According to one embodiment of the present invention, both the first pallet tilting mechanism and the second pallet tilting mechanism include a ground rail mechanism, a frame, at least one telescopic member, and a plurality of insert teeth, wherein the insert teeth are mounted on the frame.

[0011] The frame is rotatably mounted on the ground rail mechanism, which drives the frame to move along a first direction to insert the insert teeth into the iron tray. The telescopic member drives the frame to rotate around the connection point between the frame and the ground rail mechanism to flip the photovoltaic module.

[0012] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the photovoltaic module flipping and packaging device further includes a pallet gripping mechanism, which is used to place a first pallet onto a first pallet flipping mechanism, or the pallet gripping mechanism is used to place a second pallet onto a second pallet flipping mechanism.

[0013] According to one embodiment of the present invention, both the first pallet flipping mechanism and the second pallet flipping mechanism include a roller conveying mechanism, which is mounted on the frame and is parallel to the frame.

[0014] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the photovoltaic module flipping and packaging device further includes a first conveying mechanism and a second conveying mechanism;

[0015] The first conveying mechanism is disposed on one side of the first pallet tilting mechanism, and the conveying direction of the first conveying mechanism is perpendicular to the length direction of the first pallet tilting mechanism;

[0016] The second conveying mechanism is a rotary drum conveyor;

[0017] When the second conveying mechanism is rotated to the first state, the photovoltaic module on the first conveying mechanism can be moved to the second conveying mechanism;

[0018] The second conveying mechanism drives the photovoltaic module to rotate to the second state, with the short side of the photovoltaic module facing the second tray flipping mechanism.

[0019] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the insert tooth is mounted on the roller conveyor mechanism and is perpendicular to the roller conveyor mechanism. Both the first pallet flipping mechanism and the second pallet flipping mechanism include a lifting mechanism. The lifting mechanism is mounted on the frame and is used to drive the roller conveyor mechanism to lift and lower to adjust the height of the insert tooth.

[0020] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the ground rail mechanism includes a ground rail, a transverse frame, and a driving member. The transverse frame is slidably mounted on the ground rail, and the driving member is used to drive the transverse frame to move along the length direction of the ground rail.

[0021] The frame is hinged to the transverse frame, one end of the telescopic member is hinged to the transverse frame, and the other end of the telescopic member is hinged to the frame.

[0022] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the driving component includes a motor, a gear, and a gear plate;

[0023] The toothed plate is fixedly installed on the ground rail along the length of the ground rail, the gear is installed on the output end of the first motor, the first motor is fixedly installed on the transverse frame, and the gear meshes with the toothed plate.

[0024] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the photovoltaic module flipping and packaging device further includes a mounting frame and a lifting mechanism. The first conveying mechanism is slidably mounted on the mounting frame, and the lifting mechanism is mounted on the mounting frame. The lifting mechanism is used to drive the first conveying mechanism to rise and fall.

[0025] A method for packaging photovoltaic modules, using the aforementioned photovoltaic module flipping and packaging device, includes:

[0026] Obtain information from the barcode on the photovoltaic module;

[0027] Based on the information from the barcode, the pallet gripping mechanism grips the first pallet onto the first pallet flipping mechanism, or the pallet gripping mechanism grips the second pallet onto the second pallet flipping mechanism.

[0028] The packaging method of the photovoltaic module is determined based on the information of the barcode. If horizontal packaging is required, the first conveying mechanism stops moving, so that the photovoltaic module stops on the first conveying mechanism. The first pallet flipping mechanism flips the long side of the photovoltaic module to flip the long side of the photovoltaic module onto the first wooden pallet.

[0029] If vertical packaging is required, the first conveying mechanism will transport the photovoltaic module to the second conveying mechanism. The second conveying mechanism will drive the photovoltaic module to rotate so that the short side of the photovoltaic module faces the second pallet flipping mechanism. The second pallet flipping mechanism will flip the short side of the photovoltaic module so that the short side of the photovoltaic module is flipped onto the second wooden pallet.

[0030] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0031] The present invention provides a photovoltaic module flipping and packaging device and packaging method, comprising:

[0032] The photovoltaic modules are stacked sequentially using a sorting machine to form the state shown in the figure. Then, the first wooden pallet is placed on the first pallet flipping mechanism. The first wooden pallet flipping mechanism is then used to flip the long side of the photovoltaic module so that the long side of the photovoltaic module is flipped onto the first wooden pallet, thus flipping the first side of the photovoltaic module onto the first wooden pallet.

[0033] Alternatively, the second wooden pallet can be placed on the second pallet flipping mechanism, and the short side of the photovoltaic module can be flipped onto the second wooden pallet using the second pallet flipping mechanism, so that the second side of the photovoltaic module is flipped onto the second wooden pallet.

[0034] This allows stacked photovoltaic modules to be flipped vertically in one go, preventing scratches between the modules, improving the safety of packaging photovoltaic modules, and greatly reducing production losses. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0055] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0056] Example 1

[0057] like Figures 1-18 As shown, one embodiment of the present invention provides a photovoltaic module flipping and packaging device, including a first pallet flipping mechanism and a second pallet flipping mechanism;

[0058] Photovoltaic module 23 has a long side and a short side, and photovoltaic module 23 is placed on an iron tray;

[0059] The first pallet flipping mechanism is used to flip the long side of the photovoltaic module to flip the long side of the photovoltaic module 23 onto the first wooden pallet 22;

[0060] The second pallet flipping mechanism is used to flip the short side of the photovoltaic module 23 to flip the short side of the photovoltaic module 23 onto the second wooden pallet 21.

[0061] It's important to know that because packing methods are divided into horizontal and vertical packing, the shape of the wooden pallets used for packing will also differ. Specifically, for example... Figure 18 As shown, horizontal packing refers to placing the first side 231 of the photovoltaic module 23 onto the wooden pallet, while vertical packing refers to placing the second side 232 of the photovoltaic module 23 onto the wooden pallet. Because the first side 231 and the second side 232 of the photovoltaic module 23 have different shapes, the wooden pallets also come in two specifications, such as... Figure 17 As shown, the first wooden pallet 22 and the second wooden pallet 21 are arranged in sequence. The first wooden pallet 22 and the second wooden pallet 21 have the same width, but their lengths are different, with the first wooden pallet 22 being longer than the second wooden pallet 21. Clearly, the first wooden pallet 22 is used for lateral packaging of the photovoltaic module 23, meaning that the first side 231 of the photovoltaic module 23 is placed on the first wooden pallet 22, while the second wooden pallet 21 is used for longitudinal packaging, meaning that the second side 232 of the photovoltaic module 23 is placed on the second wooden pallet 21.

[0062] It should be noted that during transportation, photovoltaic modules 23 will inevitably be subject to collisions or vibrations. Therefore, the photovoltaic modules 23 will not be packed in a stacked manner. This is because if the photovoltaic modules 23 are stacked, the glass of the photovoltaic modules 23 is very likely to break if a collision or vibration occurs.

[0063] By adopting the above two placement methods, the pressure between the photovoltaic modules 23 is small, which can effectively avoid the problem of glass breakage of the photovoltaic modules 23 due to collision.

[0064] In this embodiment, a sorting machine is used to stack the photovoltaic modules 23 sequentially to form the structure. Figure 13 In the state shown, the first wooden pallet 22 is then placed on the first pallet flipping mechanism, and then the long side of the photovoltaic module 23 is flipped using the first wooden pallet flipping mechanism to flip the long side of the photovoltaic module 23 onto the first wooden pallet 22, so that the first side 231 of the photovoltaic module 23 is flipped onto the first wooden pallet 22.

[0065] Alternatively, the second wooden pallet 21 can be placed on the second pallet flipping mechanism, and the short side of the photovoltaic module 23 can be flipped using the second pallet flipping mechanism to flip the short side of the photovoltaic module 23 onto the second wooden pallet 21, so that the second side 232 of the photovoltaic module 23 can be flipped onto the second wooden pallet 21.

[0066] This allows the stacked photovoltaic modules 23 to be flipped into a vertical position at once, preventing scratches between the photovoltaic modules 23, improving the safety of the photovoltaic modules 23 during packaging, and greatly reducing production losses.

[0067] It should be explained that the current sorting machines come in two specifications. The first type of sorting machine grabs the top surface 233 of the photovoltaic module 23 to stack the photovoltaic modules 23 sequentially onto the first wooden pallet 22, forming a structure as shown in the diagram. Figure 18 The stacking method is shown. In the second sorting machine, after grabbing the top surface 233 of the photovoltaic module 23, the photovoltaic module 23 is rotated so that the first side surface 231 of the photovoltaic module 23 faces down. Finally, the sorting machine places the photovoltaic module 23 into the packaging box so that the first side surface 231 of the photovoltaic module 23 falls into the packaging box.

[0068] Preferred, such as Figure 3 As shown, both the first pallet tilting mechanism and the second pallet tilting mechanism include a ground rail mechanism, a frame 4, at least one telescopic component 3, and multiple insert teeth 6, with the insert teeth 6 mounted on the frame 4.

[0069] The frame 4 is rotatably mounted on the ground rail mechanism. The ground rail mechanism is used to drive the frame 4 to move left and right along the length of the ground rail mechanism to insert the insert 6 into the iron tray. The telescopic component 3 is used to drive the frame 4 to rotate around the connection point between the frame 4 and the ground rail mechanism to flip the photovoltaic module 23.

[0070] The first type of pallet tilting mechanism will now be described in detail:

[0071] Preferably, the ground rail mechanism includes a ground rail 1, a transverse frame 2, and a drive component. The transverse frame 2 is slidably mounted on the ground rail 1. The drive component is used to drive the transverse frame 2 to move along the length direction of the ground rail 1. The frame body 4 is hinged to the transverse frame 2. The telescopic component 3 is used to push the frame body 4 to rotate around the hinge point between the frame body 4 and the transverse frame 2. The insert 6 is mounted on the frame body 4 and is used to insert into the tray.

[0072] In the initial state, the frame 4 is horizontal and the insert 6 is vertical. The first wooden pallet 22 is placed flat on the frame 4. Then, the telescopic component 3 extends to rotate the frame 4 counterclockwise by 90° around the hinge point between the frame 4 and the transverse frame 2, so that the frame 4 is adjusted to a vertical state. Correspondingly, the insert 6 is adjusted from a vertical state to a horizontal state, and the first wooden pallet 22 is adjusted from a horizontal state to a vertical state. Then, the drive component drives the transverse frame 2 to move to the left on the ground rail 1. The transverse frame 2 moves the frame 4 and the insert 6 towards the iron rail. The pallet moves in the direction of the pallet so that the insert 6 is inserted into the iron pallet. Then the telescopic component 3 shortens so that the frame 4 rotates 90° clockwise around the hinge point between the frame 4 and the transverse frame 2, thereby flipping the frame 4 to a horizontal state. At the same time, the first wooden pallet 22 is adjusted from a vertical state to a horizontal state, and the photovoltaic module 23 on the insert 6 rotates 90° clockwise along with the frame 4, so that the first side 231 on the photovoltaic module 23 falls onto the wooden pallet. Finally, the drive component drives the transverse frame 2 to move to the right to the original position.

[0073] This allows for a simple and efficient flipping of the photovoltaic module 23 onto the first wooden pallet 22, making the replacement process simple, fast, and highly efficient.

[0074] Preferred, such as Figure 6 As shown, a support frame 202 is installed on the top of the transverse frame 2. Four bearing seats 203 are mounted on the support frame 202. The four bearing seats 203 are divided into two groups, with two bearing seats 203 in each group. These two groups of bearing seats 203 are symmetrical about the support frame 202. One group of bearing seats 203 is located near the front end of the support frame 202, and the other group is located near the rear end of the support frame 202. Figure 5 As shown, a rotating shaft is fixedly connected to each of the two bottom ends of the frame 4, and these two rotating shafts are rotatably installed in two sets of bearing seats 203.

[0075] Preferred, such as Figure 6 As shown, two sets of bearing seats 204 are installed on the top of the transverse frame 2. Each set of bearing seats 204 has two bearing seats. The two sets of bearing seats 204 are symmetrically arranged about the transverse frame 2. One set of bearing seats 204 is located on the right side of the transverse frame 2, and the other set of bearing seats 203 is located on the left side of the transverse frame 2.

[0076] Preferred, such as Figure 5As shown, the telescopic component 3 is a hydraulic cylinder. There are two hydraulic cylinders. The right ends of the two hydraulic cylinders are rotatably mounted on two sets of bearing seats 204, and the left ends of the two hydraulic cylinders are rotatably connected to the frame 4.

[0077] Specifically, two hinge seats are installed on the frame 4, each corresponding to one of the two sets of bearing seats 204. The two hinge seats are symmetrically arranged about the frame 4. Figure 5 From the perspective of the frame, the two hinge seats are installed at the same height and are both close to the bottom of the frame 4. The left end of the hydraulic cylinder is rotatably mounted on the hinge seat.

[0078] Since the installation height of bearing housing 1 203 is higher than that of bearing housing 2 204, and the connection point between the telescopic component 3 and the frame 4 is close to the bottom of the frame 4, the frame 4 can be adjusted from a vertical state to a horizontal state when the telescopic component 3 is retracted to a certain extent.

[0079] Preferred, such as Figure 8 As shown, at least one rail plate 101 is installed on the ground rail 1 along the length direction of the ground rail 1, and at least one slide block 206 is installed at the bottom of the transverse frame 2, and the slide block 206 is slidably installed on the rail plate 101.

[0080] Since the slide block 206 is lower than the lower surface of the transverse frame 2, and the upper surface of the rail plate 101 is higher than the upper surface of the ground rail 1, when the transverse frame 2 is installed on the ground rail 1, the lower surface of the transverse frame 2 does not contact the ground rail 1, which reduces the friction between the transverse frame 2 and the ground rail 1 when the transverse frame 2 moves.

[0081] Optional, such as Figure 8 As shown, the ground track 1 includes a rectangular frame, multiple first rods and multiple second rods. The multiple first rods and multiple second rods are all fixedly installed inside the rectangular frame. The first rods are parallel to the length direction of the rectangular frame, the second rods are parallel to the width direction of the rectangular frame, and the first rods and second rods are perpendicular to each other.

[0082] Preferably, three track plates 101 are provided, with two track plates 101 installed on the left and right sides of the ground rail 1 respectively, and the last track plate 101 installed on the first rod. For example... Figure 7 As shown, three rows of slide blocks 206 are installed on the lower surface of the transverse frame 2. These three rows of slide blocks 206 correspond one-to-one with the three rail plates 101. Each row of slide blocks 206 consists of four slide blocks 206.

[0083] This provides stable support for the transverse frame 2, allowing it to slide stably on the ground rail 1.

[0084] Preferably, the first tray flipping assembly further includes a positioning mechanism, which comprises at least one sensor plate and at least one slotted photoelectric sensor. The sensor plate is mounted on the transverse frame 2, while the slotted photoelectric sensor is mounted on the ground rail 1 and positioned along the movement path of the sensor plate. Thus, when the transverse frame 2 moves, it moves the sensor plate along with it. When the sensor plate moves into the slotted photoelectric sensor, the sensor sends a signal to the controller, which then stops the drive mechanism, thereby stopping the transverse frame 2 and controlling its movement range.

[0085] Optionally, two slotted photoelectric sensors are provided, namely a first slotted photoelectric sensor and a second slotted photoelectric sensor, from... Figure 4 From the perspective of the first slotted photoelectric sensor, it is located directly below the rightmost end of the transverse frame 2, and the second slotted photoelectric sensor is located near the right end of the ground rail 1. Thus, when the sensor plate moves into the first slotted photoelectric sensor, the insert 6 is just fully inserted into the iron tray, achieving... Figure 4 In the state shown, the controller drive stops operating, and the transverse frame 2 no longer moves to the left. When the sensor plate moves into the second slotted photoelectric sensor, the transverse frame 2 has just reached its starting position, and then it no longer moves to the right. This allows for precise control of the transverse frame 2's movement range.

[0086] Preferred, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the drive unit includes a motor 201, a reducer gearbox, a gear 205, and a gear plate 103. Both the motor 201 and the reducer gearbox are mounted on the transverse frame 2. The output of the motor 201 is connected to the input end of the reducer gearbox, with the output end of the reducer gearbox facing downwards. The gear 205 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the reducer gearbox.

[0087] Furthermore, such as Figure 8 As shown, a groove 102 is provided on a first rod body. The groove 102 is an elongated groove, and the length of the groove 102 is slightly less than the length of the first rod body. A toothed plate 103 is fixedly installed in the groove 102, and a gear 205 extends into the groove 102 and meshes with the toothed plate 103.

[0088] By turning on motor 201, motor 201 drives gear 205 to rotate through the reducer gearbox. Since gear 205 meshes with toothed plate 103, the transverse frame 2 moves along the length of toothed plate 103 as gear 205 rotates.

[0089] Preferred, such as Figure 9As shown, frame 4 is a rectangular frame, which includes two vertical beams and two horizontal beams. One horizontal beam is installed between the tops of the two vertical beams. The other horizontal beam is also installed between the two vertical beams, but this horizontal beam is higher than the lower surface of the vertical beams. At the bottom of each of the two vertical beams, a rotating shaft is fixedly installed, and these two rotating shafts are rotatably connected to two sets of bearing seats 203, respectively.

[0090] Preferred, Figure 10 This is a structural diagram of the roller conveyor mechanism 5 in a vertical state, in which multiple insert teeth 6 are installed side by side on the lower surface of the roller conveyor mechanism 5, and the insert teeth 6 are perpendicular to the roller conveyor mechanism 5.

[0091] The roller conveyor mechanism 5 has a conveying surface and a back surface. A fixing frame 502 is installed on the back surface of the roller conveyor mechanism 5, and a plurality of sliding blocks 402 are installed on the back surface of the fixing frame 502.

[0092] Preferred, such as Figure 9 As shown, multiple vertical bars are installed between the two crossbeams. The multiple vertical bars are arranged in parallel to each other. The vertical bars are used to enhance the structural strength of the frame 4, and a guide rail 401 is installed on each vertical bar.

[0093] It should be noted that the sliding blocks 402 on the back of the mounting bracket 502 are arranged according to the positions of the guide rails 401. Specifically, it is necessary to ensure that at least one sliding block 402 is slidably installed on each guide rail 401. Preferably, two sliding blocks 402 are slidably installed on each guide rail 401.

[0094] Preferably, the pallet tilting assembly further includes a lifting mechanism, which drives the roller conveyor mechanism 5 to lift and lower to adjust the height of the pick 6, such as... Figure 9 As shown, the lifting mechanism includes a first hydraulic cylinder 403. There are two first hydraulic cylinders 403. Both first hydraulic cylinders 403 are installed at the top of the frame 4. The rod ends of both first hydraulic cylinders 403 are fixedly connected to the top of the roller conveying mechanism 5.

[0095] In this way, the first hydraulic cylinder 403 shortens to pull the roller conveyor mechanism 5 upward, while the sliding block 402 on the back of the fixed frame 502 slides on the guide rail 401 on the frame 4, which can drive the insert teeth 6 on the roller conveyor mechanism 5 to rise, thereby lifting the photovoltaic module 23.

[0096] Preferred, such as Figure 10As shown, the roller conveyor mechanism 5 includes two side frames, multiple rollers, a drive chain, a driven chain, and a second motor 503. For ease of description, the two side frames are named the first side frame and the second side frame. The first side frame is located directly above the second side frame. The tops of the multiple rollers are rotatably mounted on the first side frame, and the bottoms of the multiple rollers are rotatably mounted on the second side frame. Driven sprockets are installed on the tops of the multiple rollers, and the multiple driven sprockets are connected to each other through a driven chain drive. The second motor 503 is fixedly mounted on the fixed frame 502. The second motor 503 is located near the top of the fixed frame 502. A drive sprocket is installed at the output end of the second motor 503, and the drive sprocket and a driven sprocket are connected through a drive chain drive.

[0097] In this way, the motor 2503 drives the drive sprocket to rotate, and the drive sprocket is connected to a driven sprocket through a drive chain drive, thereby driving the driven sprocket to rotate. Multiple driven sprockets are connected through driven chain drives, thus enabling multiple rollers to rotate synchronously.

[0098] Preferred, such as Figure 10 As shown, at least one pusher is installed on the top of the roller conveyor mechanism 5. The pusher is used to press the tray on the working surface of the roller conveyor mechanism 5 against the toothed 6.

[0099] Specifically, the pusher is a cylinder 501. There are two cylinders 501, which are installed on the first side frame with the rod end of the cylinder 501 facing downward.

[0100] The purpose of the pusher is to secure the wooden pallet. Specifically, in the initial state, the frame 4 is horizontal. When the wooden pallet is placed on the roller conveyor mechanism 5, it will fall off if the frame 4 is not secured when it rotates counterclockwise. Therefore, two cylinders 501 are installed. After the wooden pallet is placed on the roller conveyor mechanism 5, the two cylinders 501 are activated, extending to push the wooden pallet towards the insert tooth 6, thus making the wooden pallet abut against the insert tooth 6. Since the cylinders 501 always provide a thrust in the direction of the insert tooth 6, the wooden pallet is firmly secured and will not fall off when the roller conveyor mechanism 5 rotates.

[0101] Optionally, a rubber pad is provided on the bearing surface of each tooth 6. The rubber pad covers the upper surface of the tooth 6 and plays a good buffering role. It can also effectively reduce the friction between the photovoltaic module 23 and the tooth 6, thereby protecting the photovoltaic module 23.

[0102] It should be noted that since the first pallet flipping mechanism and the second pallet flipping mechanism have the same structure, the second pallet flipping mechanism will not be explained further here. Please refer to the above description of the first pallet flipping mechanism for details.

[0103] Preferred, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first pallet flipping mechanism and the second pallet flipping mechanism are arranged in parallel. The photovoltaic module pallet packaging device also includes a first conveying mechanism 8 and a second conveying mechanism 9. The first conveying mechanism 8 is located on one side of the first pallet flipping mechanism, and the conveying direction of the first conveying mechanism 8 is perpendicular to the length direction of the first pallet flipping mechanism.

[0104] The photovoltaic modules 23 stacked on the iron pallet are moved to the first pallet flipping mechanism by the first conveying mechanism 8. Then the first pallet flipping mechanism flips the photovoltaic modules 23 so that the first side 231 of the photovoltaic modules 23 is flipped onto the first wooden pallet 22.

[0105] Furthermore, the second conveying mechanism 9 is a rotary drum conveyor, which is located at the discharge end of the first conveying mechanism 8 and at the left end of the second pallet tilting mechanism.

[0106] The rotary roller conveyor includes a rotary drive mechanism and a roller conveying component 904. The rotary drive mechanism drives the roller conveying component 904 to rotate. Specifically, in its initial state, the roller conveying component 904 is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, at this time, the feed end of the roller conveyor component 904 is close to the discharge end of the first conveying mechanism 8, and the conveying direction of the roller conveyor component 904 is the same as that of the first conveying mechanism 8. When the rotary drive mechanism is working, the rotary drive mechanism drives the roller conveyor component 904 to rotate 90° clockwise so that the discharge end of the roller conveyor component 904 is located directly above the second pallet flipping mechanism. At this time, the conveying direction of the roller conveyor component 904 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the first conveying mechanism 8.

[0107] Specifically, the iron pallet and photovoltaic module 23 move to the left end of the first pallet flipping mechanism along with the first conveying mechanism 8.

[0108] If the photovoltaic module 23 needs to be packaged horizontally, the first conveying mechanism 8 will stop operating and the first pallet flipping mechanism will flip the long side of the photovoltaic module 23 to flip the first side 231 of the photovoltaic module 23 onto the first wooden pallet 22.

[0109] If the photovoltaic module 23 needs to be packed longitudinally, the first conveying mechanism 8 will not stop at the left end of the first pallet flipping mechanism, and the roller conveying component 904 will be activated at the same time, so that the photovoltaic module 23 and the iron pallet continue to move to the roller conveying component 904 on the second conveying mechanism 9. Then the rotation drive mechanism drives the roller conveying component 904 to rotate 90° clockwise. Then the second pallet flipping mechanism flips the short side of the photovoltaic module 23 to flip the second side 232 of the photovoltaic module 23 onto the second wooden pallet 21.

[0110] This eliminates the need for two separate conveyor lines to pack the photovoltaic modules 23 horizontally or vertically. The packaging device is reasonably designed and highly integrated.

[0111] Preferred, such as Figure 1 As shown, the photovoltaic module flipping and packaging device also includes a feeding conveyor line and a packaging production line 11, wherein the discharge end of the feeding conveyor line is close to the feeding end of the first conveying mechanism 8, and the feeding end of the packaging production line 11 is close to the back of the second pallet flipping mechanism.

[0112] The photovoltaic module 23 moves from the feeding and transport line to the first conveyor mechanism 8. After being flipped, the photovoltaic module 23 and the wooden pallet enter the packaging production line 11. Then, the packaging production line 11 sequentially performs steps such as strapping, film covering, boxing, box cover, secondary strapping, and secondary film covering.

[0113] Since the steps of strapping, laminating, boxing, covering, secondary strapping, and secondary laminating are all routine operations in the production of photovoltaic modules, these operations will not be described in detail here.

[0114] Preferred, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a third conveying mechanism 10 is provided between the first pallet tilting mechanism and the second pallet tilting mechanism. The third conveying mechanism 10 can be a chain conveyor or a roller conveyor, as long as it can perform the conveying function.

[0115] After the first pallet flipping mechanism flips the photovoltaic module 23 on the first conveyor mechanism 8 onto the first wooden pallet 22, the ground rail mechanism in the first pallet flipping mechanism moves the photovoltaic module 23 and the first wooden pallet 22 to the third conveyor mechanism 10, so that the roller conveyor mechanism 5 in the first pallet flipping mechanism is aligned with the third conveyor mechanism 10. At this time, the roller conveyor mechanism 5 in the second pallet flipping mechanism is in a horizontal state, and the feeding end of the roller conveyor mechanism 5 in the second pallet flipping mechanism is aligned with the third conveyor mechanism 10, and the discharging end of the roller conveyor mechanism 5 in the second pallet flipping mechanism is aligned with the feeding end of the packaging production line 11. In this way, the photovoltaic module 23 and the first wooden pallet 22 can move from the roller conveyor mechanism 5 in the first pallet flipping mechanism to the third conveyor mechanism 10, and then from the third conveyor mechanism 10 to the roller conveyor mechanism 5 in the second pallet flipping mechanism, and then enter the packaging production line 11 through the roller conveyor mechanism 5 in the second pallet flipping mechanism.

[0116] The purpose of this layout is to shorten the length of the entire production line, eliminating the need for multiple transport lines, thus making the production line layout more reasonable and saving costs.

[0117] Preferred, such as Figure 1 As shown, the photovoltaic module pallet replacement system also includes a pallet gripping mechanism 14, which is used to place the first wooden pallet 22 onto the first pallet flipping mechanism, or the pallet gripping mechanism 14 is used to place the second wooden pallet 21 onto the second pallet flipping mechanism.

[0118] Optionally, two storage racks are provided next to the pallet gripping mechanism 14, which are used to store the first wooden pallet 22 and the second wooden pallet 21, respectively.

[0119] Thus, the pallet gripping mechanism 14 grips the first wooden pallet 22 according to the command and places the first wooden pallet 22 on the roller conveyor mechanism 5 of the first pallet flipping mechanism, or the pallet gripping mechanism 14 grips the second wooden pallet 21 according to the command and places the second wooden pallet 21 on the roller conveyor mechanism 5 of the second pallet flipping mechanism.

[0120] Preferred, such as Figure 1 As shown, the pallet gripping mechanism 14 includes an industrial guide rail 12, a moving base, a robotic arm 13, and a gripping frame.

[0121] The length direction of the industrial guide rail 12 is perpendicular to the length direction of the ground rail 1. The movable seat is slidably mounted on the industrial guide rail 12. The robotic arm 13 is mounted on the movable seat and can rotate relative to the movable seat. The gripper is mounted on the robotic arm 13 and is used to grip or put down the wooden pallet.

[0122] Preferred, such as Figure 15 and Figure 16As shown, the gripper includes a frame 141, two gripping arms 142 and a drive mechanism. The two gripping arms 142 are slidably mounted on opposite sides of the frame 141. The drive mechanism is used to drive the two gripping arms 142 to move closer or further apart to grip or release the wooden pallet.

[0123] Furthermore, such as Figure 15 As shown, the frame 141 is U-shaped and includes two first rods and two second rods. The two first rods are symmetrically arranged. One second rod is fixedly installed between the left ends of the two first rods, and the other second rod is fixedly installed between the right ends of the two first rods. The length of the first rod is greater than the length of the second rod.

[0124] Furthermore, a connecting plate 148 is bolted to the top of the frame 141, and a flange is mounted on the top of the connecting plate 148. It should be noted that a flange connector is mounted at the end of the robotic arm 13, and this flange connector is bolted to the flange on the top of the connecting plate 148. The robotic arm 13 moves the gripper frame, adjusting its position.

[0125] Preferred, such as Figure 16 As shown, at least one bar rail is mounted on the frame 141, the bar rail is perpendicular to the clamping arm 142, and at least one moving block 149 is mounted on the clamping arm 142, the moving block 149 is slidably mounted on the bar rail.

[0126] In this way, when the drive mechanism moves the clamping arm 142, the moving block 149 on the clamping arm 142 can move along the bar track.

[0127] Preferred, such as Figure 16 As shown, the drive mechanism includes a motor 143, a transmission belt 144, a driving pulley 145, and a driven pulley 146. Two fixed plates 147 are respectively mounted on the lower surfaces of the two second rods. The driving pulley 145 and the driven pulley 146 are rotatably mounted on the lower surfaces of the two fixed plates 147. The transmission belt 144 is driven between the driving pulley 145 and the driven pulley 146. The motor 143 is mounted on the upper surface of one of the fixed plates 147, and the output end of the motor 143 is fixed to the driving pulley 145. The two clamping arms 142 are respectively connected to opposite sides of the transmission belt 144.

[0128] The motor 143 drives the drive pulley 145 to rotate, and the rotation of the drive pulley 145 causes the transmission belt 144 to start rotating. Since the two clamping arms 142 are respectively installed on opposite sides of the transmission belt 144, as the transmission belt 144 rotates, the two clamping arms 142 can move away from or closer to each other, thereby gripping or releasing the wooden pallet.

[0129] Preferred, such as Figure 12As shown, the photovoltaic module pallet packaging device also includes a mounting frame, a lifting mechanism, and a first conveying mechanism 8. The mounting frame, lifting mechanism, and first conveying mechanism 8 together form a feeding mechanism 7. The first conveying mechanism 8 is slidably mounted on the mounting frame, and the lifting mechanism is mounted on the mounting frame. The lifting mechanism is used to drive the first conveying mechanism 8 to rise and fall. Since the height of the discharge end of the feeding conveyor line is higher than the height of the first pallet tilting mechanism, after the photovoltaic module 23 and the iron pallet move to the discharge end with the feeding conveyor line, the lifting mechanism drives the first conveying mechanism 8 to rise so that the height of the first conveying mechanism 8 is level with the height of the feeding conveyor line. Then, the photovoltaic module 23 and the iron pallet move together onto the first conveying mechanism 8. Finally, the lifting mechanism drives the first conveying mechanism 8 to fall to reduce the height of the iron pallet, so that the insertion teeth 6 can be smoothly inserted into the iron pallet.

[0130] Preferred, such as Figure 12 As shown, the mounting bracket includes a frame 701 and two columns 702. A first guide rail is mounted on each column 702 along its length, while multiple second guide rails are mounted on the frame 701. Figure 13 As shown, the first conveying mechanism 8 is a roller conveyor. Two first sliding seats are installed on the right side of the roller conveyor, and two second sliding seats 801 are installed on the left side of the roller conveyor. The first sliding seats are slidably connected to the first guide rail, and the multiple second sliding seats 801 are slidably connected to multiple second guide rails on the upright frame 701.

[0131] Preferably, there are two lifting mechanisms. The lifting mechanism includes a second hydraulic cylinder 703, a crossbeam, and at least one pull belt 704. The crossbeam is installed near the top of the upright 701 and is slidably mounted on the upright 701. The crossbeam can slide up and down relative to the upright 701. The pull belt 704 passes through the crossbeam and both ends of the pull belt 704 are fixedly connected to the left side of the roller conveyor. The top end of the second hydraulic cylinder 703 is fixedly mounted on the crossbeam, and the bottom end of the second hydraulic cylinder 703 is fixed to the bottom of the upright 701.

[0132] In this way, the second hydraulic cylinder 703 extends to drive the crossbeam to move upward, thereby causing the belt 704 to pull the roller conveyor upward. Conversely, the second hydraulic cylinder 703 shortens to drive the crossbeam to move downward, thereby causing the roller conveyor to move downward.

[0133] Specifically, each lifting mechanism is equipped with two 704 straps to prevent the 704 straps from breaking.

[0134] Preferred, such as Figure 13 As shown, a through-beam sensor 802 is installed on the side of the first conveying mechanism 8. The through-beam sensor 802 detects the position of the photovoltaic module 23 and the iron tray, which facilitates the positioning of the iron tray so that the inserter 6 can be accurately inserted into the iron tray.

[0135] Preferred, such as Figure 13 As shown, on the left side of the first conveying mechanism 8, a plurality of electric push rods 803 are installed along the length of the first conveying mechanism 8. The electric push rods 803 are used to push the photovoltaic module 23 and the iron tray so that the photovoltaic module and the iron tray are close to the roller conveying mechanism 5, ensuring that the insert 6 can be fully inserted under the iron tray.

[0136] Preferred, such as Figure 14 As shown, the rotary roller conveyor includes a base 901, a rotary drive mechanism, and a roller conveying component 904. The rotary drive mechanism is used to drive the roller conveying component 904 to rotate. The rotary drive mechanism includes a driven gear, a driving gear 903, and a motor 902. The driven gear is rotatably mounted on the base 901, and the roller conveying component 904 is mounted on the driven gear. The motor 902 is connected to the driving gear 903. The driving gear 903 and the driven gear mesh with each other. The motor 902 drives the driving gear 903 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear to rotate, thereby driving the roller conveying component 904 to rotate.

[0137] Preferably, a barcode scanning component is installed on the feeding conveyor line. This component is used to obtain information from the barcodes on the photovoltaic modules 23, such as the model, dimensions, required materials, responsible person, and production process (including whether it is horizontal or vertical packaging). The barcode scanning component can use a barcode scanner, allowing workers to perform the scanning operation by hand. Alternatively, other scanning methods can be used.

[0138] After the barcode scanning component obtains the barcode information, it uploads the barcode information to the central control system. The central control system then controls the subsequent placement of the wooden pallets and the flipping of the photovoltaic modules 23 based on the barcode information.

[0139] For example, if it is determined that the photovoltaic module 23 needs to be packaged horizontally, the central control system controls the pallet gripping mechanism 14 to grip the first wooden pallet 22 and place the first wooden pallet 22 on the roller conveyor mechanism 5 on the first pallet flipping mechanism. Then, the system controls the first wooden pallet flipping mechanism to flip the long side of the photovoltaic module 23 so that the long side of the photovoltaic module 23 is flipped onto the first wooden pallet 22, thereby flipping the first side 231 of the photovoltaic module 23 onto the first wooden pallet 22.

[0140] If it is determined that the photovoltaic module 23 needs to be packed vertically, the central control system controls the gripping mechanism 14 to grip the second wooden pallet 21 and place the second wooden pallet 21 on the roller conveyor mechanism 5 on the second pallet flipping mechanism. The second pallet flipping mechanism is used to flip the short side of the photovoltaic module 23 so that the short side of the photovoltaic module 23 is flipped onto the second wooden pallet 21, that is, the second side 232 of the photovoltaic module 23 is flipped onto the second wooden pallet 21.

[0141] Optionally, a shelf 104 with grooves is installed on the back of the ground rail 1 for placing the tank chain.

[0142] Example 2:

[0143] A method for packaging photovoltaic modules includes the following steps:

[0144] The barcode scanner on the material handling line acquires information from the barcode on the photovoltaic module 23 and uploads it to the central control system. The barcode information includes packaging information for the photovoltaic module 23, which is divided into two types: first, the first side 231 of the photovoltaic module 23 is placed on a wooden pallet; second, the second side 232 of the photovoltaic module 23 is placed on a wooden pallet.

[0145] Based on the information from the barcode, the pallet gripping mechanism 14 grips the first wooden pallet 22 onto the first pallet flipping mechanism, or the pallet gripping mechanism 14 grips the second wooden pallet 21 onto the second pallet flipping mechanism.

[0146] The iron pallet and photovoltaic module 23 move to the discharge end of the feeding conveyor line. Then, the lifting mechanism drives the first conveyor mechanism 8 to rise so that the first conveyor mechanism 8 is level with the feeding conveyor line. Then, the first conveyor mechanism 8 opens to move the iron pallet and photovoltaic module 23 onto the first conveyor mechanism 8.

[0147] At this time, if the information on the barcode shows horizontal packaging, when the back of the photovoltaic module 23 blocks the through-beam sensor 802 on the first conveying mechanism 8, the first conveying mechanism 8 stops, and the photovoltaic module 23 and the iron tray move to the designated position.

[0148] Next, the first pallet flipping mechanism flips the long side of the photovoltaic module 23 to flip the long side of the photovoltaic module 23 onto the first wooden pallet 22; then the ground rail mechanism drives the photovoltaic module 23 and the wooden pallet to move to be aligned with the third conveying mechanism 10. At this time, the roller conveyor 5 in the second pallet flipping mechanism is in a horizontal state, and the feeding end of the roller conveyor 5 in the second pallet flipping mechanism is aligned with the third conveying mechanism 10, and the discharging end of the roller conveyor 5 in the second pallet flipping mechanism is aligned with the feeding end of the packaging production line 11. The photovoltaic module 23 and the first wooden pallet 22 move from the roller conveyor 5 in the first pallet flipping mechanism to the third conveying mechanism 10, and then move through the third conveying mechanism 10 to the roller conveyor 5 in the second pallet flipping mechanism, and then enter the packaging production line 11 through the roller conveyor 5 in the second pallet flipping mechanism.

[0149] If the information on the barcode shows vertical packaging, the first conveying mechanism 8 continues to operate, causing the photovoltaic module 23 and the iron pallet on the first conveying mechanism 8 to enter the roller conveyor component 904 in the second conveying mechanism 9. Then, the rotation drive mechanism in the second conveying mechanism 9 drives the roller conveyor component 904 to rotate 90° clockwise. Then, the second pallet flipping mechanism drives the photovoltaic module 23 to flip so that the short side of the photovoltaic module 23 is flipped onto the second wooden pallet 21, so that the second side 232 of the photovoltaic module 23 falls onto the second wooden pallet 21.

[0150] Next, the ground rail mechanism in the second pallet flipping mechanism drives the photovoltaic module 23 and the second wooden pallet 21 to move to a position aligned with the packaging production line 11. Then, the roller conveyor mechanism 5 in the second pallet flipping mechanism is activated, and the photovoltaic module 23 and the second wooden pallet 21 move onto the roller conveyor mechanism 5.

[0151] Finally, the photovoltaic module 23 and the first wooden pallet 22 or the photovoltaic module 23 and the second wooden pallet 21 move with the packaging production line 11 and sequentially perform steps such as strapping, film covering, boxing, box lid installation, secondary strapping, and secondary film covering until all packaging steps are completed.
