Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of photovoltaic production equipment bearing, in particular to an adjustable equipment rack. Background Art

[0002] In the process of assembling and producing photovoltaic modules, the equipment in each step of the production line needs to be docked at the appropriate position. Accurate docking in the horizontal position is relatively easy to achieve, and only the racks carrying the equipment need to be moved. However, in the vertical plane, the height of the bearing surface provided by the general rack is fixed, which makes it difficult to achieve accurate docking between the equipment in each step of the production line, which has an adverse impact on the continuity of photovoltaic module production.

[0003] In view of the above situation, it is obviously necessary to set a certain height adjustment mechanism for the rack. The conventional rack height adjustment structure is designed based on the rack body, and the height adjustment action position and the height change position under adjustment are often set to coincide with each other.

[0004] Simply put, the purpose of adjustment is to change the height of the bearing surface, but the existing adjustment mechanism concentrates the movable position of the bearing surface and the components for pulling the bearing surface for height adjustment, or simply sets the bearing surface in a movable form. This results in the need to manually lift and move the entire bearing part when the bearing surface is moved. In actual circumstances, this adjustment is often carried out on the premise that the bearing part is loaded with production equipment. Excessive pressure and a large active surface make it difficult to ensure the uniformity of the action during adjustment, and it is easy for the bearing surface to fail to remain level after adjustment, resulting in adjustment errors. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of the utility model is to provide an adjustable equipment rack, in which a structure for driving the height change of the rack is arranged outside the position where the height of the rack changes, and the adjustment process of the rack height is divided into preliminary positioning and precise positioning, so as to ensure the horizontality of the rack bearing surface after the height adjustment.

[0006] The purpose of the utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] An adjustable equipment rack carries photovoltaic component production equipment to perform processing, transportation and other operations on photovoltaic components. The adjustable equipment rack includes a base, a bracket, a load-bearing plate, a main adjustment member and an auxiliary adjustment member. The bracket is fixed to one side of the base, and a main adjustment member for changing the height of the load-bearing plate is arranged between the load-bearing plate and the bracket. The auxiliary adjustment member is arranged between the base and the load-bearing plate, and the height of the contact end with the load-bearing plate is adjustable. The auxiliary adjustment member and the main adjustment member are staggered.

[0008] As a further solution of the utility model: the main adjustment member includes an outer frame and a column, the outer frame is fixed on the top of the bracket, the column is fixed on the bottom of the bearing plate, and the column and the outer frame are slidably matched.

[0009] As a further solution of the utility model: a rectangular through slot is opened in the outer frame, the rectangular through slot is distributed vertically upward of the outer frame, and the vertical end surface of the column is consistent with the diameter of the rectangular through slot.

[0010] As a further solution of the utility model: first connecting holes are equidistantly provided on the outer frame, second connecting holes are equidistantly provided on the column, bolts and nuts are provided between the first connecting holes and the second connecting holes, and the bolts and nuts are threadedly connected.

[0011] As a further solution of the utility model: the auxiliary adjustment member includes a vertical pole, a sleeve, a threaded rod and an ear plate, the vertical pole is fixed on the base, the sleeve is fixed on the vertical pole, the threaded rod is threadedly connected to the sleeve, and the ear plate is fixed on the bearing plate and is in extrusion contact with the top end of the threaded rod.

[0012] As a further solution of the utility model: a handle is provided on one end of the threaded rod away from the ear plate.

[0013] As a further solution of the utility model: the top surface of the ear plate is flush with the surface of the bearing plate.

[0014] As a further solution of the utility model: the maximum distance that the threaded rod is screwed upward relative to the sleeve is greater than or equal to the maximum distance that the column is slid upward relative to the outer frame.

[0015] As a further solution of the utility model: pads are symmetrically fixedly installed on the base.

[0016] As a further solution of the utility model: reinforcing pieces are provided at the corners where the base is connected to the bracket and at the corners where the bearing plate is connected to the main adjusting piece.

[0017] Beneficial effects of the utility model:

[0018] Compared with the traditional height adjustment structure, the present application staggers the height adjustment action position and the position where the height change occurs after adjustment, and at the same time sets a double locking structure according to different states during the adjustment process. The first is a real-time lock formed by a threaded connection, and the second is a precise lock formed by a bolt structure after the height adjustment is completed. Compared with the existing adjustment mechanism that concentrates the active position of the bearing surface and the components for pulling the bearing surface for height adjustment, or simply sets the bearing surface to be movable, the uniformity of the adjustment can be guaranteed under the limitation of excessive pressure and a large action surface. The adjusted bearing surface can remain horizontal, which is conducive to accurate matching and docking between equipment in each step of the photovoltaic module production line.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an adjustable equipment rack carries photovoltaic component production equipment to perform processing, transportation and other operations on photovoltaic components. The adjustable equipment rack includes a base 1, a bracket 2, a bearing plate 3, a main adjustment member 4 and an auxiliary adjustment member 5. The bracket 2 is fixed to one side of the base 1, and a main adjustment member 4 for changing the height of the bearing plate 3 is arranged between the bearing plate 3 and the bracket 2. The auxiliary adjustment member 5 is arranged between the base 1 and the bearing plate 3, and the height of the contact end with the bearing plate 3 is adjustable. The auxiliary adjustment member 5 and the main adjustment member 4 are staggered.

[0029] In the specific implementation, the present application uses the main adjustment member 4 and the auxiliary adjustment member 5 to complete the preliminary positioning and precise positioning of the height of the load-bearing plate 3. Taking the action process of raising the load-bearing plate 3 as an example, refer to Figure 2 to Figure 3 The changes in the structure of the device are as follows:

[0030] Initial positioning:

[0031] It is realized by the auxiliary adjustment member 5, which includes a vertical rod 501, a sleeve 502, a threaded rod 503 and an ear plate 504. The vertical rod 501 is fixed on the base 1, the sleeve 502 is fixed on the vertical rod 501, the threaded rod 503 is threadedly connected with the sleeve 502, and the ear plate 504 is fixed on the bearing plate 3 and is pressed and contacted with the top of the threaded rod 503. When the auxiliary adjustment member 5 acts, the first release Figure 2 The locking relationship in the main adjustment member 4 shown makes the supporting plate 3 free to slide vertically relative to the bracket 2, and then the threaded rod 503 is rotated to lift the threaded rod 503 upward relative to the sleeve 502, thereby pushing the ear plate 504 to drive the entire supporting plate 3 upward. Since the position relationship of the threaded rod 503 relative to the sleeve 502 changes, it is locked in real time due to the restriction of the threaded structure, thereby completing the preliminary positioning.

[0032] Precise positioning:

[0033] It is realized by the main adjustment member 4, which includes an outer frame 401 and a column 403. The outer frame 401 is fixed on the top of the bracket 2, and the column 403 is fixed on the bottom of the bearing plate 3. The column 403 and the outer frame 401 are slidably matched. The sliding relationship between the column 403 and the outer frame 401 allows the column 403 to slide upward relative to the outer frame 401 (without leaving the outer frame 401) during the initial positioning. After determining the sliding relationship, the adjusted height position needs to be further accurately locked. The outer frame 401 is equidistantly provided with first connecting holes 402, and the column 403 is equidistantly provided with first connecting holes 402. Second connecting holes 404 are equidistantly provided on the column 403, and bolts 405 and nuts 406 are provided between the first connecting hole 402 and the second connecting hole 404. The bolts 405 and the nuts 406 are threadedly connected. When the height is changed, the relative positions of the first connecting hole 402 and the second connecting hole 404 change synchronously. After the height adjustment is completed, at the position where the two overlap, the bolt 405 is first inserted from one end, and then the nut 406 is screwed into the protruding part of the bolt 405 from the other end until the nut 406 is tightly pressed against the surface of the outer frame 401 to complete the precise positioning.

[0034] When adjusting in the opposite direction, i.e. lowering the height of the supporting plate 3, the above steps are also followed. The difference is that during the initial positioning, the threaded rod 503 is first moved downward to form a bottom limit, and then the supporting plate 3 is directly released to fall under its own gravity, so that the ear plate 504 is pressed into the top of the threaded rod 503.

[0035] To sum up the above, compared with the traditional height adjustment structure, the present application staggers the height adjustment action position and the position where the height change occurs after adjustment, and at the same time sets a double locking structure according to different states during the adjustment process. The first level is a real-time lock formed by a threaded connection, and the second level is a precise lock formed by a bolt 405 structure after the height adjustment is completed. This positioning method and locking mechanism design ensures uniformity during adjustment, and the load-bearing surface after adjustment can remain horizontal, which is conducive to accurate matching and docking between equipment in each step of the photovoltaic module production line.

[0036] In addition to the above, there are some related details in this application to further enhance the above functions, including:

[0037] The specific further arrangement of the structure in the precise positioning is that a rectangular through slot is provided in the outer frame 401, and the rectangular through slot is distributed vertically upward on the outer frame 401. The vertical end face of the column 403 is consistent with the diameter of the rectangular through slot. The rectangular end face shape makes the corresponding matching parts easier to manufacture, and the plug-in sliding form is adopted, which has the effect of saving space and is convenient for the setting of the locking structure here.

[0038] Taking actual usage into consideration, without adding a rotating drive part to the threaded rod 503, a handle is provided on the end of the threaded rod 503 away from the ear plate 504. When adjusting the height, the threaded rod 503 is rotated by rotating the handle, thereby making the height adjustment here more convenient.

[0039] The top surface of the ear plate 504 is flush with the surface of the carrying plate 3 , ensuring that the height change effect caused by the initial positioning is synchronized with the height change of the carrying plate 3 .

[0040] Combining the initial positioning and the precise positioning, the maximum distance that the threaded rod 503 can be screwed upward relative to the sleeve 502 is greater than or equal to the maximum distance that the column 403 can slide upward relative to the outer frame 401. Limiting the adjustment range of the initial positioning to be greater than the precise positioning is a necessary condition for realizing the overall action mechanism.

[0041] Pads are symmetrically fixedly mounted on the base 1. The arrangement of the pads increases the friction between the entire device and the ground, thereby improving the anti-slip performance of the frame support.

[0042] Reinforcements are provided at the corners where the base 1 and the bracket 2 are connected and at the corners where the load-bearing plate 3 and the main adjustment member 4 are connected, and oblique supports are added at the right-angled corners of the frame to improve the overall structural strength of the frame.

[0043] The above is a detailed description of an embodiment of the utility model, but the content is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model and cannot be considered to limit the scope of implementation of the utility model. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of application of the utility model should still fall within the scope of the patent coverage of the utility model.
