[0028] The gantry Z-axis lifting mechanism 2 includes a gantry bracket 21. The left and right sides of the bracket 1 are connected to the gantry bracket 21. A linear guide rail 22 is connected to the gantry bracket 21. A slider 23 is slidably connected to the linear guide rail 22. A buffer clip frame 24 is connected to the slider 23 located between the gantry brackets 21. A Z-axis moving module 25 is connected to the gantry bracket 21 located between the linear guide rails 22. The sliding block of the Z-axis moving module 25 is connected to the buffer clip frame 24. The linear guide rail 22 is connected to the gantry base plate 27 through a guide rail seat 29.
[0029] The conveying streamline mechanism 3 includes a conveying bracket 31, which is connected to the frame 1 and located within the buffer clip frame 24. A conveying streamline assembly 32 for conveying products is connected to the upper part of the conveying bracket 31. A straightening assembly 33 is connected to the conveying bracket 31 located on the side of the conveying streamline assembly 32. A contact sensor 34 is connected to the conveying bracket 31 located between the straightening assembly 33 and the conveying streamline assembly 32.
[0030] Among them, the Z-axis moving module 25 is a moving module driven by a lead screw and a lead screw motor, which is prior art known to those skilled in the art.
[0031] In this embodiment, the gantry support 21 includes a gantry back plate 26 and a gantry bottom plate 27. The gantry bottom plate 27 is connected to the frame 1, and the gantry back plate 26 is vertically connected to the gantry bottom plate 27. A reinforcing rib plate 28 is connected between the gantry bottom plate 27 and the gantry back plate 26 to improve the overall strength.
[0032] In an embodiment, the conveyor assembly can input and / or output products from the opening of the buffer card box. The conveyor assembly 32 includes a plurality of conveyor lines 35 with the same structure and spaced apart. The conveyor lines 35 are synchronously connected to each other by a synchronous drive shaft 36, which is connected to a transmission motor 37 connected to the conveyor support 31.
[0033] The conveyor line 35 includes a conveyor line support. The front end and rear end of the conveyor line support are respectively connected to a driving wheel and a driven wheel through their respective rotating shafts. A conveyor line synchronous belt is fitted between the driving wheel and the driven wheel. The driving wheel is synchronously connected to the synchronous transmission shaft.
[0034] In this embodiment, the straightening component can straighten the input products, preventing unevenness after output and thus avoiding output jamming. Specifically, two straightening components 33 are provided on the same side of the conveyor bracket 31, spaced apart. Each straightening component 33 includes a straightening bracket 38 connected to the conveyor bracket 31. A straightening cylinder 39 is connected to the straightening bracket 38, and a straightening support rod 310 is connected to the drive shaft of the straightening cylinder 39.

[0037] In this embodiment, a protective net 5 is connected to the frame 1 to protect against operator error.
[0038] The working principle of this invention is as follows:
[0039] In actual operation, the gantry Z-axis lifting mechanism moves the buffer card box to the required buffer layer (controlled by the PLC in the control box). The conveyor flow mechanism draws the product from the front flow line into the buffer card box. Then, the alignment component and the positioning contact sensor ensure the accurate position of the product. Subsequently, the Z-axis moving module in the gantry Z-axis lifting mechanism drags the buffer card box up to lift the product from the conveyor flow component, completing the product buffering and loading.
[0040] Similarly, the product is discharged by the Z-axis lifting mechanism of the gantry driving the buffer card frame to descend, lowering the layer containing the glass to the conveyor line, so that the conveyor line mechanism lifts the glass, the buffer card frame leaves the glass, and then the conveyor line mechanism flows out to complete the product discharge.
[0041] This invention can solve the problem of temporarily caching photovoltaic glass by incorporating a stacked buffer device into the existing photovoltaic glass overall process flow, ensuring the smooth operation of the process flow and significantly improving work efficiency.
[0042] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.
[0043] In the description of this application, it should be noted that the terms "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the product is in use. They are used only for the convenience of describing this application and for simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0044] Furthermore, terms such as "horizontal" and "vertical" do not imply that components must be absolutely horizontal or vertical, but rather that they can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical," and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.
[0045] In the description of this application, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "set up," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
