Description

Technical Field

[0002] A solar cell, or photovoltaic cell, is an electrical device that converts light energy directly into electrical energy through the photovoltaic effect, which is a physical and chemical phenomenon. It is a form of photocell, defined as a device whose electrical properties such as current, voltage or resistance change when exposed to light. Individual solar cell devices can be combined into modules, also called solar panels.

[0003] In the prior art, during the battery cell loading process of the stringer, the operator needs to wear special gloves, place the battery cells one by one in the battery cell storage station, and then transport the battery cell storage station one by one to the suction cup transfer assembly through the controlled conveying device, and finally transfer the battery cells from the storage station to the stringer equipment through the reciprocating adsorption of the suction cup transfer assembly, thereby completing the loading.

[0004] However, the method of operators placing battery cells one by one into the storage station for loading not only reduces the loading efficiency and increases the labor intensity due to long-term operation, but also easily damages the battery cells. The suction cup transfer assembly frequently travels back and forth between the battery cell storage station and the welding conveyor line, which is bound to slow down the loading speed of the battery cells and ultimately affect the string welding efficiency.

During the reciprocating and alternating movement of the upper plug plate 9 and the lower plug plate 8, the upper plug plate 9 and the lower plug plate 8 are abutted against the lower surface of each battery cell in turn, so that the battery cells are slowly dropped into the material receiving frame 6 in turn, thereby avoiding the trouble of requiring workers to wear special gloves to place the battery cells into the storage station in turn, thereby improving the loading efficiency. When the battery cell falls into the material receiving frame 6, the connecting rod 3 is indirectly driven to move by the electric cylinder 2, and the connecting rod 3 then drives the pushing rod 4 and the pushing plate 5 to move, thereby pushing the battery cell into the string welding machine for welding, thereby improving the welding efficiency.

At the same time, the connecting rod 3 and the connecting frame 13 are rotatably connected through the small pin shaft 11, so that the top of the connecting rod 3 drives the H-shaped frame 14 to move inward through the small pin shaft 11, and the push rod 4 is driven by the H-shaped frame 14 to move. A slide rail 16 is installed at the bottom of the push rod 4, and the slide rail 16 is slidably connected to the slide groove block 15, so that the push rod 4 pushes the push plate 5 to move. The push plate 5 is made of a relatively soft material, thereby protecting the battery cell during the pushing process.

[0031] Embodiment 3

[0032] On the basis of the second embodiment, a limiting frame 17 is arranged on the upper side of the material receiving frame 6, and the lower surface of the limiting frame 17 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixed frame 7. A transmission shaft 18 is arranged on one side of the limiting frame 17. A driven wheel 19 is fixedly sleeved at one end of the transmission shaft 18, and a connecting shaft 20 is fixedly sleeved at the other end of the transmission shaft 18. A driving wheel 21 is arranged at the bottom of the driven wheel 19, and a motor 22 is installed on one side of the driving wheel 21. The output shaft of the motor 22 is fixedly sleeved in the driving wheel 21, and the driving wheel 21 and the driven wheel 19 are frictionally driven by a belt 23. The cam disc 10 is fixedly sleeved in the connecting shaft 20, and one side of the lower plug plate 8 and the upper plug plate 9 are fixedly connected to the sliding rod 24. A limiting block 25 is fixedly installed on one side of the cam disc 10, and the sliding rod 24 is inserted in the limiting block 25 and is slidably connected with the limiting block 25. A sliding column 26 is fixedly sleeved at one end of the sliding rod 24, and a wheel groove 27 is opened on the surface of the cam disc 10, and the sliding column 26 is slidably connected with the wheel groove 27.

[0033] The motor 22 is electrically connected to the external terminal control device. The motor 22 rotates, thereby driving the driving wheel 21 driven by it to rotate. The driving wheel 21 drives the driven wheel 19 to rotate through the friction transmission of the belt 23. A transmission shaft 18 is fixedly sleeved in the driven wheel 19. The transmission shaft 18 is sleeved and installed in the bearing seat. The bearing seat is fixedly installed on the fixed frame 7. The transmission shaft 18 drives the connecting shaft 20 fixedly sleeved at one end thereof to rotate, so that the connecting shaft 20 drives the cam plate 10 to rotate. A wheel groove 27 is opened on the surface of the cam plate 10. Under the constraint of the wheel groove 27, the sliding column 26 slides in the wheel groove 27, so that the sliding column 26 drives the sliding rod 24 to slide back and forth in the limit block 25 through the trajectory of the wheel groove 27, so that the sliding rod 24 drives the upper plug plate 9 and the lower plug plate 8 to reciprocate respectively. One end of the upper plug plate 9 and the lower plug plate 8 are both inclined, so as to facilitate insertion between two battery cells.

[0034] In actual use, the battery cells are slid into the limiting frame 17 in a stacked manner, and at the same time, the two sides of the lower surface of the most battery cells are abutted against the lower plug plate 8. At this time, the motor 22 is controlled to rotate, and the motor 22 drives the driving wheel 21 to rotate, and the driving wheel 21 drives the driven wheel 19 to rotate through the belt 23.

When the lower plug plate 8 moves back, the bottommost battery cell falls onto the material receiving frame 6. The surface of the material receiving frame 6 is paved with a soft cushion to prevent it from being damaged when it falls. At the same time, the upper plug plate 9 moves back and forth. The electric cylinder 2 extends outward to support the two sides of the last battery cell that has fallen. The material that falls into the receiving frame 6 is extended by the electric cylinder 2. The output end of the electric cylinder 2 is rotatably connected with the connecting rod 3 through the small pin shaft 11, thereby pushing the bottom of the connecting rod 3 to move outward.

The bottom of the push rod 4 is equipped with a slide rail 16, and the slide rail 16 is connected to the slide groove The blocks 15 are slidably connected, so that the push rod 4 pushes the push plate 5 to move, and the push plate 5 pushes the material into the stringer. At this time, the upper plug plate 9 is pulled back, and the lower plug plate 8 catches the battery cell, and the lower plug plate 8 is pulled back again to make the battery cell fall again, so that the battery cells can be pushed into the stringer for welding in turn, thereby avoiding the need for operators to wear special gloves and place the battery cells one by one in the battery cell storage station, and there is no need for the suction cup assembly to reciprocate for adsorption, thereby improving the loading efficiency and reducing the labor intensity.
