Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of photovoltaic equipment, and in particular relates to a lifting and flipping transport mechanism for a solar cell string. Background Art

[0002] Photovoltaic module production equipment, multiple cells and multiple sets of welding strips are heated, welded or bonded into a cell string. Both the front and back of the cell string need to be heated, welded or bonded, which requires a flip mechanism with heating function. The purpose of heating the cell string is to prevent the cell string from cooling and warping quickly after heating, welding or bonding, resulting in the separation of the welding strip from the cell or cell fragments. The existing handling mechanism does not have a heating function, and the overall structure is relatively complex. The position accuracy of the cell after flipping is poor, and it cannot adapt to the position well.

[0003] For example, the Chinese utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN 220165088 U discloses a double-station transport mechanism that can be raised and lowered and flipped. By setting an adsorption device on the flipping platform, it can directly adsorb the battery cells. However, its shortcomings are: 1. The battery string is prone to rapid cooling during transportation, resulting in deformation and warping, which in turn causes the welding ribbon to separate or fall off from the battery string; 2. The number of battery cells adsorbed on the battery string is limited, and the applicability is poor; 3. After transportation, it cannot be translated and cannot be moved to the next station, which reduces work efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a lifting and flipping transport mechanism.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model is implemented by adopting the following technical solutions:

[0006] A lifting and flipping transport mechanism comprises a flipping assembly for flipping a battery string, a lifting assembly for lifting the battery string after flipping, and a translation assembly for translating the battery string after flipping. The translation assembly is connected to the lifting assembly via a second connecting plate, the lifting assembly is connected to the flipping assembly via a first connecting plate, and an adsorption member and a heating member are installed on the flipping assembly.

[0007] Preferably, the flip assembly includes a rotating shaft and a second driving member, the rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on a first connecting plate, one end of the rotating shaft is connected to the second driving member, and the adsorption member is connected to the rotating shaft via the adsorption plate.

[0008] Preferably, the adsorption component is a suction cup, and the suction cup is installed on the adsorption plate.

[0009] Preferably, the lifting assembly includes a driving member 1 installed on the upper end of the connecting plate 2, a screw rod and a linear guide rail 2 which are transmission-connected to the driving member 1, the linear guide rail 2 is slidingly connected to the connecting plate 2 through a slider 1, and the screw rod is connected to the connecting plate 1 through a nut.

[0010] Preferably, the translation assembly includes a mounting base plate, on which are provided a driving member three, a pulley connected to the driving member three, a synchronous belt connected to the pulley, and a linear guide rail one. The synchronous belt is connected to a slide rail connecting plate via a synchronous belt connecting plate, and the slide rail connecting plate is slidably connected to the linear guide rail one via a slider two.

[0011] Preferably, the driving member 1, the driving member 2 and the driving member 3 are all motors.

[0012] Preferably, the heating element is a heating rod.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0014] 1. Use suction cups to absorb the battery cells. The suction cups themselves have a buffering effect, which can avoid hidden cracks caused by direct contact between the surface of the adsorption plate and the battery cells;

[0015] 2. By setting a heating rod, the deformation and warping of the battery string caused by rapid cooling can be avoided, which may cause the welding ribbon to separate or fall off from the battery string;

[0016] 3. The battery string can be flipped in a limited space by flipping the assembly, making the overall volume small, occupying less space, and facilitating equipment integration;

[0017] 4. The battery string can be adsorbed by the suction cup, and the number of battery cells on different battery strings can be adsorbed, which is widely used;

[0018] In summary, the utility model flips the battery string 180° through the flipping assembly, and at the same time drives the battery string on the flipping assembly to rise through the lifting assembly, and then drives the flipped battery string to move to the next process through the translation assembly. The two movements of flipping and rising are performed simultaneously, which reduces the movement time and movement space. No breakage occurs during the transportation of the battery cells, which improves the accuracy and ensures the work efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0029] The present invention will be further described below through specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Embodiment 1:

[0031] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a lifting and flipping transport mechanism includes a flipping assembly 1 for flipping a battery string, a lifting assembly 2 for lifting the battery string after flipping, and a translation assembly 3 for translating the battery string after flipping, wherein the translation assembly 3 is connected to the lifting assembly 2 via a second connecting plate 21, and the lifting assembly 2 is connected to the flipping assembly 1 via a first connecting plate 26, and an adsorption member and a heating member 13 are installed on the flipping assembly 1.

[0032] The battery string is flipped 180° by the flipping assembly 1, and the battery string on the flipping assembly 1 is driven to rise by the lifting assembly 2. Then the translation assembly 3 drives the flipped battery string to move to the next process. The flipping and rising movements are performed simultaneously, which reduces the movement time and movement space.

[0033] Embodiment 2:

[0034] like Figure 3-4 As shown, a lifting and flipping transport mechanism is different from Example 1 in that the flip assembly 1 includes a rotating shaft 11 and a second driving member 12. The rotating shaft 11 is rotatably mounted on a connecting plate 1 26, and one end of the rotating shaft 11 is connected to the second driving member 12. The adsorption member is connected to the rotating shaft 11 through an adsorption plate 14. The rotation of the adsorption plate 14 contacting the battery cell is driven by the rotating shaft 11, and can be flipped 180° and 360°. The adsorption plate 14 is heated by the heating element 13 to transfer the heat to the battery string, and a higher rotation speed can be achieved under the premise of meeting the accuracy, thereby meeting the production capacity requirements.

[0035] like Figure 5 As shown, the adsorption component is a suction cup 15, which is installed on the adsorption plate 14. The suction cup 15 is used to adsorb the battery cell. The suction cup 15 itself has a buffering effect, which can avoid hidden cracks caused by direct contact between the surface of the adsorption plate 14 and the battery cell.

[0036] like Figure 6-7 As shown, the lifting assembly 2 includes a driving member 23 installed on the upper end of a connecting plate 21, a screw rod 25 and a linear guide rail 22 which are transmission-connected to the driving member 23. The linear guide rail 22 is slidingly connected to the connecting plate 21 through a slider 27, and the screw rod 25 is connected to the connecting plate 26 through a nut 24.

[0037] like Figure 8-9 As shown, the translation assembly 3 includes a mounting base plate 36, on which are provided a driving member 31, a pulley 37 drivingly connected to the driving member 31, a synchronous belt 33 drivingly connected to the pulley 37, and a linear guide rail 1 32. The synchronous belt 33 is connected to a slide rail connecting plate 34 via a synchronous belt connecting plate 35, and the slide rail connecting plate 34 is slidably connected to the linear guide rail 1 32 via a slider 2 38.

[0038] In this embodiment, the driving member 1 23 , the driving member 2 12 and the driving member 3 31 are all motors.

[0039] For example Figure 5 As shown, the heating element 13 is a heating rod. By providing the heating rod, deformation and warping of the battery string caused by rapid cooling can be avoided, which in turn can prevent the welding strip from separating or falling off from the battery string.

[0040] The working principle of the utility model is:

[0041] The driving member 1 23 drives the screw rod 25 to rotate, thereby driving the flip assembly 1 to move down to the position of the battery string as a whole through the connecting plate 1 26, and drawing a vacuum on the suction cup 15 through the air distributor 16 arranged on the rotating shaft 11, and the battery string is adsorbed on the adsorption plate 14 through the suction cup 15, and the heating member 1 moderately heats the adsorption plate 14 to prevent the battery string from being deformed and warped due to rapid cooling, and then the flip assembly 1 is driven to rise as a whole through the reverse rotation of the driving member 1 23, and at the same time, the driving member 2 12 drives the rotating shaft 11 to drive the battery string on the adsorption plate 14 to flip 180°, and the battery string is lifted to a safe height and then flipped through the lifting assembly 2, at this time, the driving member 3 31 drives the synchronous belt 33 to rotate, and then the slide rail connecting plate 34 drives the lifting assembly 2 on the connecting plate 21 to translate along the linear guide rail 1 32, and finally translates to a position where there is a moving module above, the vacuum generator is disconnected, the suction cup 15 is separated from the battery string, and the battery string is removed through the next process.

[0042] The driving member 3 31 and the driving member 1 23 rotate in the opposite direction and return to the position of taking the battery string, and repeat the above steps, which will not waste the overall time of the mechanism and improve the work efficiency.
