Figure 2 The diagram is a partial structural diagram of a residual adhesive processing mechanism for a photovoltaic module according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0017] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 According to an embodiment of the present invention, a residual glue processing mechanism for photovoltaic modules includes: a workbench 1 and multiple groups of grinding glue components 2. The middle part of the workbench 1 is convex to form a storage table 11, and the surface of the workbench 1 around the storage table 11 is concave to form a collection bin 12. The storage table 11 is used to carry the frameless photovoltaic module 5 so as to perform the corresponding degumming process, and the collection bin 12 is used to recover the residual glue dripping during the degumming. The shifting device 33 includes a longitudinal part 31, a transverse part 32 and a driving part 33 connecting the two. The longitudinal part 31 is arranged along the length direction of the workbench 1, and the transverse part 32 is arranged along the width direction of the workbench 1. The longitudinal part 31 is fixed on the outer peripheral wall of the collection bin 12, one end of the transverse part 32 is fixedly connected to each group of grinding glue components 2, and the other end of the transverse part 32 can be moved on the driving part 33. The mechanical arm 4 is movably arranged above the workbench 1, so as to complete the operation of loading and unloading the frameless photovoltaic module 5. The glue grinding components 2 are arranged at the edge of the frameless photovoltaic component 5. When the driving part 33 is started, each group of glue grinding components 2 will move along the edge of the frameless photovoltaic component 5, thereby removing the residual glue on the frameless photovoltaic component 5.

[0018] Figure 3 Schematic diagram of the structure of a rubber grinding assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0019] Reference Figure 3Specifically, each group of rubber grinding components 2 includes: two rotating motors 21, an upper frame 22, a lower frame 23, an upper grinding head 24, a lower grinding head 25 and a height adjustment component 26. Each rotating motor 21 is fixedly arranged on the surface of the upper frame 22 and the surface of the lower frame 23, respectively. The upper grinding head 24 and the lower grinding head 25 are electrically connected to the rotating motor 21, respectively. Each rotating motor 21 drives the upper grinding head 24 and the lower grinding head 25 to rotate. Among them, the upper grinding head 24 is rotatably arranged on the inner surface of the upper frame 22 through a rotating shaft, and the lower grinding head 25 is rotatably arranged on the inner surface of the lower frame 23 through a rotating shaft. When performing the glue removal process, the frameless photovoltaic module 5 is located between the upper grinding head 24 and the lower grinding head 25, and the upper grinding head 24 and the lower grinding head 25 rotate at the same time, thereby completing the cleaning of the residual glue on the surface of the frameless photovoltaic module 5. The height adjustment component 26 is movably disposed between the upper frame 22 and the lower frame 23, thereby changing the spacing between the upper grinding head 24 and the lower grinding head 25. Preferably, in this embodiment, there are two groups of grinding rubber components 2, and each group of grinding rubber components 2 is symmetrically arranged about the transverse portion 32. During the degumming process, after one of the grinding rubber components 2 cleans the surface of the frameless photovoltaic component 5 during the movement, the other grinding rubber component 2 continues to clean the corresponding area, thereby improving the cleaning effect. Among them, the driving part 33 is a module with a linear movement function, such as a linear motor module.

[0020] Furthermore, the height adjustment component 26 includes: a stabilizing seat 261, an adjusting screw 262 and a connecting piece 263. The two sides of the stabilizing seat 261 are bent vertically in the same direction to form a plate with a groove structure. One end of the adjusting screw 262 passes through the bent portion of the stabilizing seat 261 and is threadedly connected and fixed to the upper frame 22. The other end of the adjusting screw 262 is fixedly connected to the lower frame 23 through a connecting piece 263 such as a bolt. When performing the degumming process on frameless photovoltaic modules 5 of different thicknesses, the distance between the upper frame 22 and the lower frame 23 is changed by adjusting the connection position of the lower frame 23 and the connecting piece 263, and then the gap between the upper grinding head 24 and the lower grinding head 25 is adjusted to adapt to frameless photovoltaic modules 5 of different thicknesses.

[0021] Continue to refer to Figure 1Specifically, the robot arm 4 includes: a fixed frame 41, a mobile module 42, a mobile rod 43 and a suction cup 44. Among them, the fixed frame 41 is fixedly arranged on one side of the longitudinal portion 31, and the extension direction of the fixed frame 41 is consistent with that of the longitudinal portion 31. The surface of the fixed frame 41 is paved with a slide rail matching the mobile module 42, and the mobile module 42 is movably arranged on the slide rail. The mobile module 42 is a linearly movable device such as an electric slider, the outer shell of the mobile module 42 is limited on the slide rail, the mobile rod 43 passes through the inside of the mobile module 42, and the mobile rod 43 and the mobile module 42 are connected by the rack meshing on the surface of the mobile rod 43. One end of the mobile rod 43 is fixedly connected to the suction cup 44, and the other end of the mobile rod 43 passes through the mobile module 42, and the moving direction of the mobile rod 43 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the slide rail. In the process of loading and unloading the frameless photovoltaic module 5, the mobile module moves on the slide rail and drives the movement of the mobile rod 43 to complete the forward and backward movement and the up and down movement of the frameless photovoltaic module 5.

[0022] In another embodiment, in order to facilitate transportation, the entire residual adhesive processing mechanism further includes a transportation mechanism 6 for transporting the frameless photovoltaic module 5. Figure 1 The transfer mechanism 6 includes a bracket 61, a transfer motor 62, and a plurality of rollers 63 disposed between the brackets 61. The bracket 61 is fixedly disposed on one side of the workbench 1 below the suction cup 44, and the extension direction of the bracket 61 is the same as the extension direction of the longitudinal portion 31 and the slide rail. A plurality of rollers 63 are disposed between the brackets 61, each roller 63 is disposed relatively parallel to each other, and each roller 63 is rotationally connected to a corresponding rotation motor to drive the roller 63 to rotate.

[0023] During the degumming process, the driving part 33 is started to drive each group of the degumming components 2 to move around the edge of the frameless photovoltaic component 5 for one circle, and the upper grinding head 24 and the lower grinding head 25 rotate respectively to remove the residual glue on the two opposite surfaces of the frameless photovoltaic component 5. After the degumming components 2 move around the edge of the frameless photovoltaic component 5 for one circle, the moving module 42 drives the suction cup 44 to move to the surface of the frameless photovoltaic component 5 and absorbs the frameless photovoltaic component 5 that has completed the degumming process to the transfer mechanism 6, thereby completing the unloading action.

[0024] In summary, the present invention drives each group of glue grinding components to move along the edge of the frameless photovoltaic component through the shifting device, thereby completing the corresponding glue removal process, thereby allowing the photovoltaic component to continue to recycle the complete glass plate after removing the frame.
