[0022] Referring to Figures 1 - 5 , this embodiment provides a rotating feeding mechanism for a solar cell string welding machine, which includes a support device 1, a rotating device 2, a hoisting sliding contact device 3, and a plurality of adsorption devices 4; The rotating device 2 includes a turntable assembly 20, the turntable assembly 20 is arranged corresponding to the support device 1, and the turntable assembly 20 is connected to a driving motor arranged in the support device 1, and the driving motor is used to drive the turntable assembly 20 to rotate; The rotating device 2 further includes a connecting column assembly 21, the connecting column assembly 21 is fixedly connected to the side of the turntable assembly 20 away from the support device 1, the hoisting sliding contact device 3 is movably connected to the end of the connecting column assembly 21 away from the turntable assembly 20, and the hoisting sliding contact device 3 is electrically connected to the connecting column assembly 21, and the rotation of the turntable assembly 20 drives the connecting column assembly 21 to rotate synchronously within the hoisting sliding contact device 3; A plurality of the adsorption devices 4 are arranged at intervals at the end of the turntable assembly 20 away from the connecting column assembly 21, and the adsorption device 4 is used to suck the battery cells 5 to be welded and place the battery cells 5 to be welded in the welding area according to the rotation of the turntable assembly 20.
[0023] In the above embodiments, the rotating feeding mechanism of the solar cell string welder mainly includes a support device 1, a rotating device 2, a hoisting sliding contact device 3, and a plurality of adsorption devices 4. The support device 1 is the gantry framework of the entire system. It not only provides a stable installation foundation for other components, but also has a driving motor inside. Through the transmission system, it is connected to the turntable assembly 20 in the rotating device 2, thereby realizing precise rotation control of the turntable assembly 20. The core of the rotating device 2 is the turntable assembly 20, which is a disc-shaped structure and can rotate 360 degrees around the central axis. The rotating device 2 also includes a connecting column assembly 21. The connecting column assembly 21 is fixedly connected to the side of the turntable assembly 20 away from the support device 1. The connecting column assembly 21 is movably connected to the hoisting sliding contact device 3, so that when the turntable assembly 20 rotates, the connecting column assembly 21 can rotate synchronously within the hoisting sliding contact device 3, ensuring continuous power supply. A plurality of adsorption devices 4 are evenly distributed on the outer edge of the turntable assembly 20. The adsorption devices 4 are used to suck the battery wafers to be welded 5. The battery wafers to be welded 5 include, but are not limited to, polycrystalline and single-crystalline battery wafers. Each adsorption device 4 is driven by a cylinder and can move in the vertical direction to suck or release the battery wafers to be welded 5. When the turntable assembly 20 rotates, the adsorption devices 4 move accordingly, and the sucked battery wafers are accurately placed in the welding area. Therefore, through the 360-degree infinite loop feeding of the rotating device 2, there is no need to reserve a long transmission channel space like linear feeding, which improves the space utilization rate of the production site and reduces the site cost. At the same time, it greatly shortens the feeding time interval of the battery wafers, significantly improves the feeding speed per unit time, and thus improves the production efficiency of the entire string welder.
[0024] During operation, the driving motor is started, and then directly drives the turntable assembly 20 to start rotating through the motor output shaft (or drives the turntable assembly 20 to start rotating through the transmission system). At this time, the connecting column assembly 21 rotates synchronously with the turntable assembly 20 and maintains electrical connection within the hoisting sliding contact device 3 to ensure continuous power supply. Then, the adsorption devices 4 located on the outer edge of the turntable assembly 20 act in sequence according to the preset program. The cylinder drives the adsorption device 4 to move downward, and the negative pressure suction nozzle 42 sucks the battery wafer to be welded. After the adsorption is completed, the adsorption device 4 gradually approaches the welding area as the turntable assembly 20 rotates. When it reaches the designated position, the adsorption device 4 is controlled again, and the cylinder drives it to move upward to release the battery wafer and place it accurately on the welding platform. Subsequently, the turntable continues to rotate, and the next adsorption device 4 repeats the above process to achieve continuous feeding operation.

The second support portion 111 and the reinforcement portion 112 are parallel to each other and are respectively and perpendicularly connected to the first support portion 110. The second support portion 111 and the reinforcement portion 112 are respectively connected to adjacent sides of the first support portion 110, and the top of the first support portion 110 is located in the same plane and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support crossbeam 10; The second support base 12 includes a third support portion 120, a fourth support portion 121, and a plurality of fifth support portions 123. The fifth support portions 123 are perpendicularly connected to the fourth support portion 121.

The third support portion 120 and the fourth support portion 121 are parallel to each other, and one end of the third support portion 120 is fixedly connected to the top of the support crossbeam 10.
[0026] In the above embodiment, the support device 1 is composed of a support crossbeam 10, a first support base 11, and a second support base 12. The support crossbeam 10 is the main part of the entire support device 1 and plays a key role in connecting and carrying other components. It extends along the length direction, and the first support base 11 and the second support base 12 are respectively installed at both ends; The first support base 11 is located at one end of the support crossbeam 10 and is mainly responsible for supporting the entire system from the bottom. It consists of three main parts: a first support portion 110, a second support portion 111, and a reinforcement portion 112. Among them, the first support portion 110 is vertically fixed to the bottom of the support crossbeam 10 to provide the main supporting force.

[0027] Further, the second support base 12 is located at the other end of the support crossbeam 10 and is mainly responsible for suspending and supporting the entire system from the top. It is composed of a third support portion 120, a fourth support portion 121, and a plurality of fifth support portions 123. The fourth support portion 121 serves as the bottom support of the second support base 12. A plurality of fifth support portions 123 are vertically connected to the fourth support portion 121. The third support portion 120 is connected to the end of the fifth support portion 123 away from the fourth support portion 121, is parallel to the fourth support portion 121, and one end thereof is fixedly connected to the top of the support crossbeam 10. The length of the third support portion 120 is greater than that of the fourth support portion 121, and the extended portion is directly connected to the top of the support crossbeam 10, forming a top suspension support structure, providing a main suspension point, enabling the second support base 12 to effectively share the weight of the support crossbeam 10. The first support base 11 bears a part of the downward pressure generated by the weight of the object, and the second support base 12 bears a part of the tensile force by means of suspension support, so that the support crossbeam 10 is subjected to forces in the up and down directions in the vertical direction. The combined action of these forces enables the support crossbeam 10 to bear heavier objects, improving the stability and load-bearing capacity of the entire support device 1.
[0028] Referring to Figures 1 - 2 , in one embodiment, the support device 1 further includes a motor fixing device and an auxiliary support device 14; The motor fixing device includes a top plate 130, a first side plate 131, and a second side plate 132.

Or the auxiliary support device 14 can also be not used, and the output shaft of the driving motor is directly connected to the turntable assembly 20. Through the combined action of the motor fixing device and the auxiliary support device, the stable installation and efficient heat dissipation of the driving motor are ensured, and at the same time, reliable support is provided for the turntable assembly 20, ensuring the smooth operation of the entire system.

[0037] In the above embodiments, the adsorption device 4 further includes a plurality of negative pressure suction nozzles 42. The cylinder drive assembly 41 consists of a cylinder body 410 and an adsorption support plate 411. The cylinder body 410 is installed on the cylinder support plate 401 and drives the piston to expand and contract through air pressure, thereby driving the adsorption support plate 411 to move up and down. The adsorption support plate 411 is a long strip-shaped flat plate structure and is connected to the cylinder body 410 through a drive connection plate 412. When the cylinder body 410 drives the piston to extend or retract, the drive connection plate 412 moves accordingly, driving the adsorption support plate 411 to move synchronously up and down. A plurality of strip holes 413 are provided on the adsorption support plate 411. These strip holes 413 extend along the length direction of the adsorption support plate 411, providing installation and adjustment space for the negative pressure suction nozzles 42. Each negative pressure suction nozzle 42 can be horizontally adjusted in the strip holes 413 according to actual needs to adapt to battery wafers of different sizes and arrangements.
[0038] Furthermore, the negative pressure suction nozzle 42 is used to directly contact and suck the solar cell. Each negative pressure suction nozzle 42 consists of a suction pipe and a nozzle. The suction pipe is responsible for transmitting the negative pressure to the nozzle, and the nozzle contacts the surface of the solar cell to form a seal, ensuring that the solar cell can be firmly adsorbed. The nozzle is preferably made of rubber material because it has good flexibility and sealing performance, and can adapt to the surfaces of solar cells with different shapes and sizes. A detection device is also provided on the turntable extension 202. The detection device is used to detect whether the solar cell 5 to be welded has reached the designated position. Usually, a position sensor is used. When the adsorption device 4 moves to the predetermined position, the position sensor will detect the presence of the solar cell and send a signal to the control system to confirm that the solar cell has been correctly positioned.
[0039] Furthermore, the adsorption support plate 411 is composed of a support plate main body 4110 and reinforcing ribs 4111. The strip-shaped holes 413 are provided on the support plate main body 4110. The reinforcing ribs 4111 are the key strengthening structures of the adsorption support plate 411. They extend in a direction perpendicular to the support plate main body 4110, and there are two reinforcing ribs 4111. The two reinforcing ribs 4111 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the support plate main body 4110. The reinforcing ribs 4111 vertically extend downward from both sides of the support plate main body 4110 to form a C-shaped structure, significantly enhancing the overall rigidity of the adsorption support plate 411.
[0040] Refer to Figures 1 - 4 , in an embodiment, the adsorption device 4 further includes a pressing plate assembly 43. The pressing plate assembly 43 includes a pressing plate support 430, a pressing plate connecting member 431, and a pressing plate body 432. The pressing plate support 430 is fixedly connected to one end of the adsorption support plate 411. The pressing plate connecting member 431 is adjustably arranged on the pressing plate support 430. The pressing plate body 432 is arranged at one end of the pressing plate connecting member 431 away from the pressing plate support 430. The pressing plate body 432 is used to press the clamping member of the solar cell 5 to be welded.
[0041] In the above embodiments, the adsorption device 4 further includes a pressing plate assembly 43. The pressing plate assembly 43 includes a pressing plate support 430, a pressing plate connecting member 431, and a pressing plate body 432. The pressing plate support 430 is fixedly connected to one end of the adsorption support plate 411. The pressing plate connecting member 431 is an adjustment component in the pressing plate assembly 43. A plurality of runway-shaped through holes are provided on the pressing plate support 430, so that the pressing plate connecting member 431 is adjustably arranged on the pressing plate support 430 to adapt to battery sheet holders of different thicknesses and shapes. The battery sheet 5 to be welded includes a battery sheet body and a holder. The battery sheet body is the photovoltaic element that actually needs to be welded, while the holder is a structure for auxiliary fixing and positioning. The pressing plate body 432 is the part that directly contacts the battery sheet 5 to be welded, and is located at the end of the pressing plate connecting member 431 away from the pressing plate support 430. The pressing plate body 432 is usually made of a soft and wear-resistant material, such as rubber or silicone. When the adsorption support plate 411 drives the pressing plate assembly 43 and the negative pressure suction nozzle 42 to move downward for adsorption, the pressing plate assembly 43 first presses on the holder to ensure the position of the battery sheet body is fixed and prevent it from moving during the adsorption process. This design ensures the accuracy of each suction action and avoids welding quality problems caused by battery sheet offset.
[0042] Referring to Figures 1 - 3 , in one embodiment, the connecting column assembly 21 includes a current collector 210 and a connecting column body 211 with a hollow structure, and the hoisting sliding contact device 3 includes a hoisting plate 30 and an annular sliding contact wire 31; The connecting column body 211 is fixedly connected to the turntable main body 201. The current collector 210 is arranged at the end of the connecting column body 211 away from the turntable main body 201. The hoisting plate 30 is connected to the annular sliding contact wire 31.

The annular sliding contact wire 31 is electrically connected to the current collector 210, and the annular sliding contact wire 31 is used to transmit electric energy to the current collector 210.
[0043] In the above embodiments, the connecting column assembly 21 is composed of a current collector 210 and a connecting column body 211. The connecting column body 211 is a solid hollow tubular structure fixedly connected to the turntable main body 201. Its main function is to provide mechanical support and serve as a channel for power cables. The internal hollow design of the connecting column body 211 allows power cables to pass through, reducing the complexity of external wiring and improving the compactness of the system. A plurality of wire harness outlets are also formed on the connecting column body 211. These outlets are used to lead out the wire harness of the current collector 210 and connect it to the adsorption device 4 and other control devices to provide them with necessary electric energy.
[0044] Furthermore, the current collector 210 is arranged at one end of the connecting column body 211 away from the turntable body 201, and it is the electrical connection hub between the connecting column assembly 21 and the hoisting sliding contact device 3. The hoisting sliding contact device 3 includes a hoisting plate 30 and an annular sliding contact wire 31. The centers of the annular sliding contact wire 31, the connecting column assembly 21, the turntable assembly 20, and the driving motor are located on the same central axis, that is, the connecting column assembly 21 is arranged at the central position of the turntable assembly 20. The hoisting plate 30 is a solid flat plate structure, fixedly connected to an external device (such as a cross beam frame) and used to suspend and support the annular sliding contact wire 31. The design of the hoisting plate 30 takes into account the convenience and stability of installation and is usually fixed to the external device by bolts or other fasteners. Hanging it up effectively improves the space utilization rate of the entire site. The annular sliding contact wire 31 is a closed annular conductive track, electrically connected to the current collector 210, responsible for delivering electric energy from an external power source to the current collector 210, ensuring that the electric energy can be continuously transmitted during the entire rotation process and will not be interrupted due to angle changes, effectively improving the space utilization rate of the entire structure and also simplifying the power transmission path and reducing the complexity of wiring.
