Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of laser marking equipment, and in particular to a laser marking device and method. Background Art

[0002] The current photovoltaic glass cell is usually 2-4mm thick and has a plane size of 2000 1000mm, 2000 1600mm, 2400 1200mm, thin thickness, large size, there is a warping problem in the natural state, that is, the thickness direction of the glass cell is not an ideal plane, and its local warping can reach ±0.3mm / 300mm or even larger. This is not allowed in high-precision automation equipment, especially in the field of high-precision laser marking equipment. Due to the short focal depth of laser marking, the optimal working range in the thickness direction is often required to be within 0.1~0.5mm. At this time, the flatness of the product in the thickness direction (Z direction) of the working area must reach ±0.05mm or even smaller to ensure the quality of its marking.

[0003] Currently, there is a method for leveling glass cells. The solution adopted is to evenly distribute the shaping platform + evenly distribute the suction cups evenly on the entire XY surface of the product. The entire product is laid flat on the shaping platform by suction cups. The high-precision Z-axis module is used to lift the laser to adjust the distance between the laser focal plane and the product so that its focal depth is within an appropriate range.

[0004] Although the method of leveling the entire product can also achieve the overall Z-direction leveling of the product, due to the large format of the product, if a whole shaping platform is used, not only is it difficult to achieve the processing flatness requirements, but the price is also high; if multiple evenly distributed shaping platforms are used, it is necessary to debug the flatness and adjust the height of each shaping platform, and the debugging cost and operation difficulty will increase proportionally. The use of a high-precision Z-axis module to lift the laser to adjust the distance between the laser focal plane and the product can complete the laser marking operation to a certain extent, but on the one hand, due to the deviation of the positioning accuracy and repeat positioning accuracy of the Z-axis module itself, it fails to form a real-time closed-loop feedback with the product spacing during Z-direction movement; on the other hand, due to the certain deviations in the shaping platform manufacturing process and installation and debugging process, and there are also deviations between different products, these deviations also fail to form a closed-loop feedback with the Z-axis module. This is not feasible in situations where high laser marking accuracy is required. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] Some embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention.

[0024] As described in the background technology, photovoltaic glass cells are currently thin and large in size, and have warping problems in their natural state. During high-precision laser marking, due to the focal depth of laser marking, the flatness requirements of the marked object are extremely high, and warped glass cells are difficult to meet the flatness requirements of high-precision laser marking. Currently, there is also a method for leveling glass cells. The solution is to lay the entire glass cell product flat on a shaping table and level the entire product. However, due to the large format of the glass cell, the cost of the entire shaping table is extremely high, and the use of multiple dispersed shaping platforms will greatly increase the debugging cost and operation difficulty of multiple shaping platforms.

[0025] To solve the above problems, the present invention creatively proposes a laser marking device and method, in which an adsorption and fixing module for adsorbing and fixing a glass cell sheet is fixedly connected to a laser marking module. The laser marking module first adjusts its distance from the glass cell sheet under the drive of a mobile positioning module to perform large-step and fast coarse positioning, and then drives the adsorption and fixing component for adsorbing the glass cell sheet to move through the first driving component in the adsorption and fixing module to adjust the distance between the laser marking module and the product again to perform small-step fine-tuning fine positioning. By combining coarse positioning with fine positioning, the focal depth of the marking area of ​​the glass cell sheet is adjusted through the two positionings, so that the marking area of ​​the glass cell sheet meets the flatness requirement of high-precision laser marking.

[0026] The present invention will be described in detail below through specific embodiments.

[0027] Embodiment 1: This embodiment provides a laser marking device, referring to Figure 1 As shown, the laser marking device includes: a mobile positioning module 100, a laser marking module 200 and an adsorption fixing module 300; The laser marking module 200 is slidably connected to the mobile positioning module 100 and is driven to rise and fall by the mobile positioning module 100; The adsorption and fixing module 300 includes an adsorption and fixing component 310 and a first driving component 320.

The glass cell sheet to be marked adsorbed and fixed by the adsorption and fixing component 310 extends in the horizontal direction. The laser marking module 200 is configured to be connected to the mobile positioning module 100 and driven to rise and fall by the mobile positioning module 100 to perform a primary positioning of the glass cell to be marked; the adsorption and fixing component 310 is configured to be driven to rise and fall by the first driving component 320 to perform a secondary positioning of the adsorbed and fixed glass cell to be marked.

By sliding and rising the laser marking module 200 on the moving shaft 120, it is possible to implement the limitation of the moving direction of the laser marking module 200 by the setting of the moving shaft 120, thereby implementing the distance in the Z direction between the laser marking module 200 and the glass cell to be marked adsorbed and fixed by the adsorption fixing module 300 fixed on the laser marking module 200.

[0031] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 As shown, a sliding block is slidably installed on the moving shaft 120, and the laser marking module 200 is fixed on the sliding block. A sensing piece matching the first displacement sensing component 150 is installed on the sliding block. There are three groups of first displacement sensing components 150, which provide the mobile positioning module 100 with near-travel limit, far-travel limit and origin sensing by sensing the sensing pieces on the sliding block. The three groups of first displacement sensing components 150 are installed on the sensor mounting seat, and the sensor mounting seat is installed on the body. Of course, the sensing piece matching the first displacement sensing component 150 can also be installed on the surface of the laser marking module 200 facing the moving shaft 120, and at the same time, the installation position of the sensor mounting seat on the moving shaft 120 is adjusted or the size of the sensor mounting seat is changed so that the first displacement sensing component 150 can sense the sensing piece installed on the laser marking module 200, thereby providing the mobile positioning module 100 with near-travel limit, far-travel limit and origin sensing.

[0032] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the laser marking module 200 includes a mounting seat 210 and a laser assembly 220; The mounting seat 210 is slidably connected to the movable positioning module 100, and the laser assembly 220 is fixed on the mounting seat 210; The adsorption and fixing module 300 is connected to the end of the laser marking module 200, and the laser emitting end of the laser assembly 220 faces the bottom surface of the glass cell to be marked adsorbed and fixed on the adsorption and fixing module 300. Exemplarily, the mounting seat 210 is slidably connected to the moving shaft 120 of the moving positioning module 100, and the second driving assembly 130 drives the mounting seat 210 to slide, thereby driving the laser marking module 200 to rise and fall as a whole.

[0033] In some embodiments, reference Figure 4 As shown, the laser assembly 220 includes a laser 221, a collimating mirror 222 and a galvanometer 223; The laser 221 is fixed on the mounting base 210, and the laser 221 is configured to provide a laser source; One end of the collimator 222 is connected to the emission end of the laser 221, and the collimator 222 is configured to convert the laser beam emitted by the laser 221 into a parallel beam; The other end of the collimator 222 is connected to the galvanometer 223, and the galvanometer 223 is configured to provide marking compatibility on the marking format for laser marking, and the glass cell to be marked adsorbed and fixed by the adsorption and fixing module 300 is located above the galvanometer 223. The galvanometer 223 provides marking compatibility on the marking format for laser marking, and the marking range can be arbitrarily selected between its minimum format and maximum format.

[0034] In some embodiments, the laser marking module 200 further includes a dust collecting assembly 230, and the dust collecting assembly 230 is installed at the laser marking location of the laser marking module 200; The dust collecting assembly 230 is configured to collect dust generated during the marking process.

[0036] In some embodiments, the dust collecting head 231 wraps the galvanometer 223 and one end of the dust collecting head 231 is fixed to the end surface of the galvanometer 223; An opening flush with the outer peripheral surface of the galvanometer 223 is provided on the circumferential surface of the dust collecting head 231, and the wind knife 232 is installed at the opening, and the air outlet of the wind knife 232 faces the galvanometer 223. Exemplarily, one end of the dust collecting head 231 wraps the galvanometer 223 in the Z direction (vertical direction) and is fixed on the XY plane (top horizontal plane) of the galvanometer 223, which is used to collect dust generated during the marking process. The dust suction port of the dust collecting head 231 is connected to the dust suction port of the dust collector 234, and the collected dust is concentrated in the dust collector 234 for easy dumping and processing.

[0037] In some embodiments, the adsorption and fixing assembly 310 includes a mounting member 311, a suction cup 312, and a suction cup pipe joint 313. The mounting member 311 and the first driving assembly 320 are matched to be driven by the first driving assembly 320.

The suction cup 312 is configured to absorb the marking area of ​​the glass cell to be marked, and to pull the glass cell to be marked down to the top surface of the mounting member 311. The top surface of the mounting member 311 is configured to serve as a Z-direction local shaping reference surface for the glass cell to be marked. Preferably, the suction cup 312 and the suction cup pipe joint 313 are evenly distributed on the mounting member 311, so that the force is more evenly applied when the glass cell to be marked is absorbed and fixed.

[0039] The control module is configured to: based on the distance, control the first driving component 320 to drive the adsorption and fixing component 310 to move the focal plane of the marking area of ​​the glass cell to be marked. Since the glass cell to be marked will be slightly deformed when the suction cup 312 adsorbs the glass cell to be marked, the second displacement sensing component 330 monitors the change in distance from the focal plane in real time, and feeds back the signal to the first driving component 320, and the first driving component 320 adjusts the focal plane of the product marking area through the Z-direction micro-adjustment mounting part 311. Fine adjustments are made in this closed-loop control manner to achieve secondary Z-direction precision positioning.

[0044] In some embodiments, reference Figure 6 As shown, step S2 includes: S21, obtaining the position data of the glass cell to be marked based on the first displacement sensing component in the mobile positioning module; S22, based on the position data, controlling the mobile positioning module to drive the laser marking module to move up and down, so as to adjust the focal depth of the laser marking module in the vertical direction of the glass cell to be marked; Step S3 includes: S31, obtaining the distance between the light-emitting surface of the laser marking module and the glass cell to be marked adsorbed and fixed by the adsorption and fixing component based on the second displacement sensing component; S32, based on the distance, controlling the first driving component to drive the adsorption and fixing component to move the focal plane of the marking area of ​​the glass cell sheet to be marked.

[0045] The method of double positioning + real-time closed-loop feedback is used to replace the single Z-axis lifting positioning. The first Z-axis positioning is a rough positioning of the laser marking module and the adsorption fixed module with a large step and fast positioning as a whole. The mobile positioning module drives the laser marking film group and the adsorption fixed module to lift and lower as a whole + the first displacement sensing component provides real-time feedback to adjust the distance between the laser component and the product. After one positioning is completed, the mobile positioning module is fixed; the second Z-axis positioning is a fine-tuning positioning and precise positioning of the adsorption fixed component in the adsorption fixed module. The first driving component drives the adsorption fixed component to lift and lower separately + the second displacement sensing component provides real-time feedback and adjusts the distance between the laser component and the product; because the suction cup will cause a slight deformation of the product after adsorbing the product, the second Z-axis precise positioning is very necessary.
