Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a boat moving mechanism, in particular to an efficient and stable boat moving mechanism, belonging to the technical field of battery cell transportation. Background Art

[0002] Photovoltaic cells are semiconductor material components that convert sunlight into electrical energy and are one of the key components of solar photovoltaic power generation systems. With the rapid development of the solar photovoltaic industry, manufacturers are paying more and more attention to the production efficiency of high and low voltage diffusion equipment, and the demand for equipment automation is increasing. Whether in the semiconductor or photovoltaic field, reducing manual operations is one of the most effective ways to improve product yield and efficiency. In addition, without changing the time required for the process, shortening the handling time as much as possible and reducing manual handling are the most direct ways to improve equipment efficiency.

[0003] Traditional boat-supported transportation usually adopts a reciprocating motion method, that is, several boat-supported batteries are placed on each boat paddle, and the transportation mechanism needs to move several times to complete the transportation work. This transportation method is inefficient and has a high failure rate. In addition, most transportation mechanisms use a two-side hanging method to fix the boat-support. The contact area between the transportation mechanism and the boat-support is small. In order to ensure the stability of the boat-support, the transportation speed should not be too fast, thereby reducing work efficiency. Moreover, if a failure occurs during the transportation process, in addition to the boat-support being damaged, the boat-support and battery cells below will also be hit by debris falling from above, causing secondary losses. Therefore, an efficient and stable boat-supporting mechanism is proposed. Summary of the invention

When the second electric guide rail and the third electric guide rail work, the manipulator assembly shrinks to reduce the space occupied by the boat moving mechanism, so as to realize the loading and unloading functions of the boat support at the cache position and the paddle position. After reaching the paddle position, the grabbing assembly releases the boat support to complete the transport work.

[0010] Further preferably: the support assembly includes a gantry and a base plate;

[0018] Further preferably, the inner side wall of the quartz boat support is evenly provided with brackets.

[0019] Further preferably, the ear plates are respectively arranged inside the card slots of the first support plate and the second support plate.
