Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of solar cell production equipment, and specifically discloses a solar cell clamping mechanism. Background Art

[0002] In solar energy devices, solar cells are key components. The production of solar cells requires many processes, so the cells need to be transported. During the transportation process, a clamping mechanism is needed to clamp and fix the cells to prevent them from falling during transportation. Since the hardness of the cells varies, friction is needed to ensure the stability of the cells during the clamping process. The magnitude of the friction is usually determined by the interaction force during clamping. If the clamping force is too large, it is easy to cause damage to the edge of the solar cell during the clamping process, causing unnecessary losses. If the clamping force is too small, it will cause the solar cell to fall off during the clamping and transportation process, affecting the quality and efficiency of the clamping.

[0003] Therefore, how to achieve fast and stable clamping of solar cells, adjust the clamping force according to the specifications of different solar cells, and avoid damage and falling of solar cells during the clamping and transportation of solar cells to ensure the quality of solar cells has become an urgent problem that researchers in this field need to solve.

[0023] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. Figures 1 to 6 , and describes the application in detail with reference to embodiments.

[0024] The embodiment discloses a solar cell clamping mechanism, including a support assembly 1 and a transmission assembly 2, wherein the transmission assembly 2 is arranged on the inner side of the support assembly 1, and a plurality of clamping assemblies 3 are evenly distributed on the outer side of the transmission assembly 2, wherein the support assembly 1 includes a top plate 11, a telescopic rod 12 and a bottom plate 14, the transmission assembly 2 includes an end face tooth 21 and a motor 22, and the clamping assembly 3 includes a gear 31, a threaded rod 311, a support plate 34, a clamping plate 35 and a hinged plate 36.

A plurality of limiting holes 142 are evenly distributed inside the bottom plate 14, so that the clamping mechanism can be installed at a suitable position of the target installation mechanism through the mounting seat 121, so as to facilitate the installation of the transmission assembly 2 and the clamping assembly 3.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the outer side of the end face tooth 21 is rotatably connected to the connecting hole 141, a motor 22 is arranged in the middle of the end face tooth 21, a first connecting seat 23 is arranged on the outer side of the motor 22, and the upper end of the first connecting seat 23 is connected to the top plate 11. The motor 22 is connected to the terminal device through an electrical signal, so that the transmission component 2 can remain stable during use, which is convenient for controlling the operation of the transmission component 2.

[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the gear teeth of the gear 31 are meshed with the teeth of the end face teeth 21, a threaded rod 311 is connected to one side of the gear 31, a second connecting seat 32 is arranged on the outer side of the threaded rod 311, a third connecting seat 33 is arranged on the end of the threaded rod 311 away from the gear 31, the threaded rod 311 is rotatably connected to the second connecting seat 32 and the third connecting seat 33 at the same time, a support plate 34 is arranged between the second connecting seat 32 and the third connecting seat 33, so as to facilitate the synchronous rotation of multiple gears 31 through one end face tooth 21, and then drive the threaded rod 311 to rotate, laying a foundation for the position adjustment of the support plate 34, the clamping plate 35 and the support plate 37, etc.

[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a threaded hole 342 is provided inside the upper end of the support plate 34, the threaded rod 311 passes through the inside of the threaded hole 342 and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 342, the support plate 34 passes through the inside of the limiting hole 142, and limiting grooves 341 are provided on both sides of the support plate 34. The two limiting grooves 341 are respectively slidably connected to the two sides of the limiting hole 142, and the lower end of the support plate 34 is connected to a clamping plate 35, which can limit the movement trajectory of the support plate 34 and the connecting parts to ensure the smooth clamping of the solar cell.

[0030] The solar cell clipping mechanism disclosed in the present embodiment, when in use, uses a terminal device to start the motor 22, so that a transmission is formed between the motor 22, the end face teeth 21, the gear 31, the threaded rod 311 and the support plate 34, so that the multiple support plates 34 and the clamping plates 35 and the support plates 37 connected thereto gradually move in a direction away from the center of the circle of the end face teeth 21. When the distance between the two opposite clamping heads 351 is greater than the distance between the opposite sides of the solar cell, the motor 22 is turned off, and then the terminal device is used to control the extension of the telescopic rod 12 to push the top plate 11, the arc plate 13 and the top plate 11 downward, and in the process of pushing, the transmission assembly 2 and the clamping assembly 3 are driven to move downward, so that the support plate 37 contacts the platform.

After multiple elastic pads 352 are tightly fitted with the edges of the solar cell, the motor 22 is turned off, and the terminal device is used to control the telescopic rod 12 to slowly shrink, releasing the squeezing of the top plate 11, the arc plate 13, the bottom plate 14 and the support plate 34, so that the clamping head 351 and the elastic pad 352 drive the solar cell to slowly rise. During the rising process, the coil spring 361 releases the accumulated force and drives the hinge plate 36 to reset, so that the hinge plate 36 drives the support plate 37 and the support block 371 to move to the bottom of the solar cell until the support block 371 is in close contact with the bottom of the solar cell, providing further support for the solar cell. When the lower plane of the support plate 37 is completely separated from the platform, the clamping operation of the solar cell is completed, and the corresponding transportation operation can be carried out.

[0031] The above control steps can be compiled into corresponding operation command sets in the PLC controller according to different models of solar cells. The corresponding command set can be directly selected during the clamping process, thereby realizing the automatic clamping and transportation of solar cells.
