[0029] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the utility model has the following advantages:

[0030] In the photovoltaic module transport carrier provided by the technical solution of the utility model, the photovoltaic module is supported by the support components arranged at intervals in several layers, so that there is a certain gap between the two photovoltaic modules adjacent to each other, reducing the problem of mutual friction or collision between the two photovoltaic modules adjacent to each other, thereby reducing the damage of the photovoltaic module during transportation. The photovoltaic module is a large photovoltaic component after assembly, and the assembly work has been completed in the workshop. After transportation to the site, it only needs to be installed and fixed on the photovoltaic bracket, thereby reducing the outdoor workload on site and improving the efficiency of on-site installation.

[0031] In addition, there is a linkage relationship between the support arms corresponding to two adjacent layers. In the process of the support arms of the lower layer receiving the photovoltaic modules, the support arms corresponding to the adjacent upper layer are in the initial position, and can provide avoidance for the support arms on the lower layer to receive the photovoltaic modules. In the process of the support arms of the lower layer rotating to the supporting position, or after the photovoltaic modules are supported, the support arms corresponding to the adjacent upper layer can be linked to rotate from the initial position toward the supporting position, so that the support arms on the upper layer are converted into a state where they can receive the photovoltaic modules. In this way, the photovoltaic modules are stacked layer by layer from bottom to top. Relying on the design of the structure of each support arm itself and cooperating with the loading of the photovoltaic modules, the support arms on each layer can be automatically opened to receive the photovoltaic modules, eliminating the need for manual operation or automated equipment to open the support arms, thereby improving the efficiency of loading the photovoltaic modules and reducing the cost of loading the photovoltaic modules.

[0032] Furthermore, the driving part includes a roller, and the roller is configured to slide and abut against the support arm corresponding to the adjacent upper layer during the process of the support arm rotating to the support position, so as to push the support arm corresponding to the adjacent upper layer to rotate from the initial position to the intermediate position. The roller slides and abuts against the support arm corresponding to the adjacent upper layer, so that the friction force in the process of pushing the support arm corresponding to the adjacent upper layer can be reduced.

[0033] Furthermore, the center of gravity of the support arm is arranged at the driving part, and based on the rotation point of the support arm, the support arm can rotate from the support position to the initial position under the action of gravity. Combined with gravity, the support arm can automatically restore the initial position after the photovoltaic module is taken out, so as to facilitate the next linkage of the support arm. The functional requirements are achieved by adjusting the center of gravity design, which not only makes the structure of the support arm simple and practical, but also has low cost.

[0034] Furthermore, the support arm is L-shaped as a whole, and a chamfer is provided between the support portion and the drive portion. The chamfer provided between the support portion and the drive portion ensures that when the support arm of the upper layer rotates from the middle position to the support position, the corresponding support arm of the adjacent lower layer will not block or abut against it, thereby ensuring that the support arm of the upper layer can smoothly rotate from the middle position to the support position.

[0035] Furthermore, the support arm is configured to support the support beam. Since the support arm supports the support beam and has no contact with the photovoltaic panel, damage to the photovoltaic panel during transportation is reduced.

[0036] Furthermore, it also includes: at least one guide member, the guide member is fixedly connected to the tool frame, and the guide member is configured to guide the material picking assembly to the inside of the tool frame when the material picking assembly grabs the photovoltaic module. After the photovoltaic module is transported to the installation site, the material picking assembly at the installation site can be quickly guided to the accurate grabbing position through the guide member, thereby improving the efficiency of picking up the photovoltaic module.

[0037] Furthermore, the tooling frame includes at least two frame parts, and at least two of the frame parts are detachably connected. Since the overall tooling frame is relatively large in size, it exceeds the size of conventional items allowed to be transported on roads. By configuring the tooling frame as at least two detachably connected frame parts whose volumes do not exceed the size of conventional items allowed to be transported on roads, each frame part is transported to a photovoltaic module production plant and then assembled to form a tooling frame, so as to achieve the deployment of the tooling frame.

[0048] As described in the background art, photovoltaic panels are currently prone to collision or friction damage during transportation, and after the photovoltaic panels and support beams are transported to the installation site, the workload on site is heavy.

[0049] On this basis, the utility model provides a photovoltaic module transport carrier, which can make a certain gap between the two upper and lower adjacent photovoltaic modules, and reduce the problem of mutual friction or collision between the two upper and lower adjacent photovoltaic modules. The photovoltaic module is a large photovoltaic component after assembly, which can reduce the workload of outdoor work on site to improve the efficiency of on-site installation. There is a linkage relationship between the support arms corresponding to the two adjacent layers. Relying on the design of the structure of each support arm itself and cooperating with the loading of the photovoltaic module, the support arms of each layer can be automatically opened to receive the photovoltaic module, eliminating the manual operation or automation equipment for opening the support arm, improving the efficiency of loading the photovoltaic module, and reducing the cost of loading the photovoltaic module.

[0053] Figure 7 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of a support arm in a photovoltaic module transport carrier according to an embodiment of the utility model; Figure 8 It is a schematic diagram of a discrete structure in which a tooling frame in a photovoltaic module transport carrier according to an embodiment of the utility model is a detachable connection structure.

[0054] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 A photovoltaic module transport carrier comprises: a tooling frame 10; a plurality of layers of support assemblies 20 arranged at intervals along a vertical direction Z, each layer of the support assemblies 20 comprising a plurality of support arms 201 arranged at intervals in the same horizontal plane, the support arms 201 being rotatably connected to the tooling frame 10 and used to support a photovoltaic module 30, the photovoltaic module 30 comprising at least one support beam 301, and a plurality of photovoltaic panels 302 supported and fixed by at least one of the support beams 301; the support arms 201 located at the lower layer, in the process of rotating to a supporting position to support the photovoltaic module 30, can drive the corresponding support arms 201 located at the adjacent upper layer to rotate from an initial position S1 toward the supporting position S3; wherein the support arms 201 at the initial position S1 are configured not to interfere with the movement of the photovoltaic module 30 along the vertical direction Z, so as to provide avoidance for the support arms 201 located at the lower layer to receive the photovoltaic module 30.

[0055] It should be noted that although Figure 2 4 support beams 301 are shown in the figure, but the number and specific shape of the support beams 301 are not specifically limited here, and the extension direction of the support beams 301 is also not limited. For example, but not limited to, the support beams 301 can be parallel to Figure 2 The long sides of the array of photovoltaic panels 302 extend and / or are parallel to Figure 2 The photovoltaic panels 302 extend along the short sides of the array.

[0056] The photovoltaic modules 30 are supported by the support components 20 arranged at intervals in several layers, so that there is a certain gap between the two adjacent photovoltaic modules 30, reducing the friction or collision between the two adjacent photovoltaic modules 30, thereby reducing the damage of the photovoltaic modules 30 during transportation. The photovoltaic modules 30 are large photovoltaic components after assembly, and the assembly work has been completed in the workshop. After being transported to the site, it is only necessary to install and fix the photovoltaic modules 30 on the photovoltaic bracket (not shown), thereby reducing the outdoor workload on the site and improving the efficiency of on-site installation.

[0057] In addition, there is a linkage relationship between the support arms 201 corresponding to two adjacent layers. When the support arms 201 of the lower layer receive the photovoltaic modules 30, the support arms 201 corresponding to the adjacent upper layer are in the initial position S1, which can provide avoidance for the support arms 201 of the lower layer to receive the photovoltaic modules 30. When the support arms 201 of the lower layer rotate to the supporting position, the support arms 201 corresponding to the adjacent upper layer can be linked to rotate from the initial position S1 toward the supporting position S3, so that the support arms 201 of the upper layer are converted into a state where they can receive the photovoltaic modules 30. In this way, the photovoltaic modules 30 are stacked layer by layer from bottom to top. Relying on the design of the structure of each support arm 201 itself and cooperating with the loading of the photovoltaic modules 30, the support arms 201 of each layer can be automatically opened to receive the photovoltaic modules 30, eliminating the need for manual operation or automated equipment to open the support arms 201, thereby improving the efficiency of loading the photovoltaic modules 30 and reducing the cost of loading the photovoltaic modules 30.

[0058] It is understandable that the tooling frame 10 is the main structure that carries the photovoltaic module 30, and it needs to be surrounded by a plurality of frame components to form a cavity with a certain carrying space. In some embodiments, the plurality of frame components can be in the form of welded longitudinal beams and cross beams. In some embodiments, the plurality of frame components can also be in the form of cross-welded diagonal beams, and the cross-beams form a diamond grid.

[0059] Please continue to refer to Figures 4 to 6 In this embodiment, the support arm 201 located at the lower layer can drive the corresponding support arm 201 located at the adjacent upper layer to rotate from the initial position S1 to the middle position S2 during the process of rotating to the support position S3; the support arm 201 at the middle position S2 can be further driven to rotate to the support position S3 to support the photovoltaic module 30 and drive the corresponding support arm 201 located at the adjacent upper layer to rotate from the initial position S1 to the middle position S2.

[0060] It should be noted that when the support arm 201 is in the middle position S2, the support arm 201 can provide contact for receiving the photovoltaic module 30, that is, when the photovoltaic module 30 moves to the support arm 201 in the middle position S2, it can come into contact with the support arm 201.

[0061] Please continue to refer to Figures 4 to 6 In this embodiment, the support arm 201 in the middle position S2 can continue to rotate to the support position S3 by receiving the photovoltaic module 30, so as to support the photovoltaic module 30 and drive the corresponding support arm 201 located in the adjacent upper layer to rotate from the initial position S1 to the middle position S2.

[0062] It should be noted that, since the weight of the photovoltaic module 30 is much greater than the weight of the support arm 201, after the support arm 201 in the middle position S2 receives the photovoltaic module 30, the support arm 201 in the middle position S2 is pressed to the support position S3 by the weight of the photovoltaic module 30. The positional relationship of the support arms 201 corresponding to two adjacent layers is as follows: when the support arm 201 of the lower layer is in the initial position S1 or the middle position S2, it will not affect the state of the support arm 201 corresponding to the adjacent upper layer; when the support arm 201 of the lower layer rotates from the middle position S2 to the support position S3, it will drive the support arm 201 corresponding to the adjacent upper layer to convert from the initial position S1 to the middle position S2.

[0063] Please continue to refer to Figure 4 , since the photovoltaic modules 30 are stacked layer by layer from the bottom to the top of the tooling frame 10, it is understandable that when the first photovoltaic module 30 is loaded, it is necessary to ensure that the support arms 201 at the bottom are in an open state, so as to provide contact for receiving the photovoltaic modules 30. Therefore, in this embodiment, the support assembly 20 at the bottom includes: a plurality of third blocking elements 202, the third blocking elements 202 are fixedly connected to the tooling frame 10, and the third blocking elements 202 are configured to limit the corresponding support arms 201 at the bottom to the middle position S2 before supporting the photovoltaic modules 30.

[0064] Please refer to Figure 7 In this embodiment, the support arm 201 includes: a support portion 2011a, wherein the support portion 2011a is used to support the photovoltaic module 30; a driving portion 2012a, wherein the driving portion 2012a is used to drive the support arm 201 corresponding to the adjacent upper layer to rotate from the initial position S1 to the intermediate position S2; the driving portion 2012a is configured to slide against the support arm 201 corresponding to the adjacent upper layer during the process of the support arm 201 rotating to the support position S3, so as to push the support arm 201 corresponding to the adjacent upper layer to rotate from the initial position S1 to the intermediate position S2.

[0065] Please continue to refer to Figure 5 In this embodiment, when the support arm 201 is in the initial position S1, the support portion is in a vertical state; when the support arm 201 is in the intermediate position S2, the support portion is in an inclined state; when the support arm 201 is in the support position S3, the support portion is in a horizontal state.

[0066] Please continue to refer to Figure 7In this embodiment, the driving part 2012a includes a roller 2013a, and the roller 2013a is configured to slide and abut the support arm 201 corresponding to the adjacent upper layer during the process of the support arm 201 rotating to the support position S3, so as to push the support arm 201 corresponding to the adjacent upper layer to rotate from the initial position S1 to the intermediate position S2. The roller 2013a slides and abuts against the support arm 201 corresponding to the adjacent upper layer, so that the friction force in the process of pushing the support arm 201 corresponding to the adjacent upper layer can be reduced.

[0067] In other embodiments, the support arm may further include: a connecting member (not shown, such as but not limited to a connecting rod, etc.), which connects the driving portion with the driving portion of the support arm corresponding to the adjacent upper layer, and is rotatably connected with the driving portion of the support arm corresponding to the adjacent upper layer; the connecting member is configured to pull the support arm corresponding to the adjacent upper layer from the initial position to the intermediate position during the process of the support arm rotating to the supporting position.

[0068] Please continue to refer to Figure 5 and Figure 7 In this embodiment, the support portion 2011a and the driving portion 2012a are L-shaped as a whole, and a chamfer 2014a is provided between the support portion 2011a and the driving portion 2012a. The chamfer 2014a provided between the support portion 2011a and the driving portion 2012a ensures that during the rotation of the support arm 201 of the upper layer from the intermediate position S2 to the support position S3, the corresponding support arm 201 of the adjacent lower layer will not block or abut against it, thereby ensuring that the support arm 201 of the upper layer can smoothly rotate from the intermediate position S2 to the support position S3.

[0069] Please continue to refer to Figure 7 In this embodiment, the center of gravity G of the support arm 201 is arranged at the driving part 2012a, and based on the rotation point of the support arm 201, the support arm 201 can rotate from the support position S3 to the initial position S1 under the action of gravity. Combined with gravity, after the photovoltaic module 30 is taken out, the support arm 201 can automatically restore the initial position S1 so that the support arm 201 can undertake the next linkage. By adjusting the design of the center of gravity G to achieve the functional requirements, the structure of the support arm 201 is not only simple and practical, but also low in cost.

[0070] Please continue to refer to Figure 5In this embodiment, the driving part 2012a is also configured to support the support arm 201 corresponding to the adjacent upper layer, so that the support arm 201 corresponding to the adjacent upper layer is maintained in the intermediate position S2. It can be understood that another reason for configuring the center of gravity G of the support arm 201 to be located at the driving part 2012a is that when the support arm 201 of the upper layer is driven to the intermediate position S2 by linkage, the center of gravity G of the support arm 201 is located at the driving part 2012a, so that the support arm 201 still has a tendency to rotate toward the initial position S1, but due to the limiting support of the support arm 201 corresponding to the adjacent lower layer, the support arm 201 of the upper layer can be maintained in the intermediate position S2. If the center of gravity G of the support arm 201 is configured on the support part 2011a, when the support arm 201 is driven to the middle position S2, driven by the center of gravity G of the support arm 201, the support arm 201 will continue to rotate to the support position S3, and then the support arm 201 of the upper layer will continue to be driven to rotate to the middle position S2, and the support arm 201 of the upper layer will rotate from the middle position S2 to the support position S3, until the support arms 201 of all layers are rotated to the support position S3. Since the support arm 201 at the support position S3 will block the operation of the photovoltaic module 30 in the vertical direction Z, the photovoltaic module 30 will not be loaded from bottom to top.

[0071] Please continue to refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 In this embodiment, the support arm 201 is configured to support the support beam 301. Since the photovoltaic panel 302 is relatively fragile, if the support arm 201 directly abuts against and supports the photovoltaic panel 302, it is easy to cause damage to the photovoltaic panel 302, thereby making it impossible for the photovoltaic panel 302 to perform photoelectric conversion normally. Therefore, the support arm 201 directly abuts against and supports the support beam 301 without contacting the photovoltaic panel 302, thereby reducing the damage to the photovoltaic panel 302 during transportation.

[0072] Please continue to refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7In this embodiment, the support arm 201 has a support opening 2015a matched with the support portion 2011a of the support beam 301, and the support opening 2015a is configured to abut and support the support beam 301, that is, the support opening 2015a and the support portion 2011a of the support beam 301 have substantially the same cross-sectional shape to better wrap and accommodate the support portion 2011a of the support beam 301. By limiting the support beam 301 through the support opening 2015a, the stability of the support of the photovoltaic module 30 during transportation can be effectively improved.

[0073] In other embodiments, a protrusion may be provided on the support arm, and a recess may be provided at a position corresponding to the support beam, so that the support beam can be limited by the cooperation between the protrusion and the recess.

[0074] Please continue to refer to Figure 5 In this embodiment, at least part of the support assembly 20 further includes: a plurality of first blocking elements 203, wherein the first blocking elements 203 are fixedly connected to the tooling frame 10, and the first blocking elements 203 are configured to limit the corresponding support arm 201 to the support position S3.

[0075] It should be noted that since each of the support arms 201 is rotatably connected to the tooling frame 10, when the support arm 201 is rotated to the support position S3, if there is no limit, the support arm 201 will not be able to maintain the support position S3. Therefore, it is necessary to configure an additional first blocking element 203 so that the support arm 201 can always maintain the support position S3 to support the photovoltaic module 30.

[0076] Please continue to refer to Figure 5 In this embodiment, at least part of the support assembly 20 further includes: a plurality of second blocking elements 204, wherein the second blocking elements 204 are fixedly connected to the tooling frame 10; and the second blocking elements 204 are configured to limit the corresponding support arm 201 to the initial position S1.

[0077] It should be noted that since each of the support arms 201 is rotatably connected to the tooling frame 10, if there is no limit, the support arm 201 will not be able to maintain the initial position S1. Therefore, it is necessary to configure an additional second blocking element 204 so that the support arm 201 can be in the initial position S1 before receiving the photovoltaic module 30, so as to provide the necessary position state for subsequent linkage.

[0078] In this embodiment, since the support arm 201 at the bottom layer has been limited at the middle position S2 by the third blocking element 202, the support assembly 20 at the bottom layer does not need to be provided with the second blocking element 204.

[0079] In other embodiments, the first blocking element can also be configured to limit the corresponding support arm to the initial position, that is, the first blocking element can simultaneously meet two limiting requirements, thereby eliminating the need to add the second blocking element and reducing the manufacturing cost of the photovoltaic module transport vehicle.

[0080] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 In this embodiment, the photovoltaic module transport carrier further includes: at least one guide member 40, the guide member 40 is fixedly connected to the tool frame 10, and the guide member 40 is configured to guide the material taking component to the inside of the tool frame 10 when the material taking component grabs the photovoltaic module 30. After the photovoltaic module 30 is transported to the installation site, the material taking component at the installation site can be quickly guided to the accurate grabbing position through the guide member 40, thereby improving the efficiency of picking up the photovoltaic module 30.

[0081] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 In this embodiment, the guide member 40 includes: two guide rails 401 arranged at the top corners of the tool frame 10 and arranged in parallel, the rail surfaces of the two guide rails 401 are perpendicular to each other, and a part of the material picking assembly can move on the rail surface; wherein each guide rail 401 includes a guide head 4011 at the top, the guide head 4011 is higher than the tool frame 10, and the guide head 4011 extends toward the outside of the tool frame 10. The function of the guide head 4011 is to increase the guide angle so that the material picking assembly can be quickly guided to the accurate grasping position.

[0082] In other embodiments, the guide member may further include: a guide groove, in which a portion of the material picking assembly can move; wherein the guide groove includes a guide head at the top, the guide head is higher than the tooling frame, and the guide head extends toward the outside of the tooling frame.

[0083] Please refer to Figure 8In this embodiment, the tooling frame 10 includes at least two frame parts 101, and at least two of the frame parts 101 are detachably connected. Since the overall tooling frame 10 is relatively large in size, it exceeds the size of conventional items allowed to be transported by road. By configuring the tooling frame 10 as at least two detachably connected frame parts 101 whose volumes do not exceed the size of conventional items allowed to be transported by road, when each of the frame parts 101 is transported to the production plant of the photovoltaic module 30, they are assembled to form the tooling frame 10, so as to realize the deployment of the tooling frame 10.

[0084] Fig. 9 It is a schematic diagram of the state conversion of the support arm in the photovoltaic module transport carrier of another embodiment of the utility model; Fig.10 It is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the support arm in the photovoltaic module transport carrier according to another embodiment of the utility model.

[0085] This embodiment continues to describe the photovoltaic module 30 transport vehicle based on the above embodiment, and the rest is the same as the above embodiment, except that: when the support arm 201 located at the lower layer is in the support position S3, it can drive the corresponding support arm 201 located at the adjacent upper layer to rotate from the initial position S1 toward the support position S3. The following will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0086] Please refer to Fig. 9 and Fig.10 In this embodiment, when the support arm 201 located at the lower layer is in the support position S3, it can drive the corresponding support arm 201 located at the adjacent upper layer to rotate from the initial position S1 to the support position S3. Specifically, when the support arm 201 located at the lower layer is in the support position S3, it can drive the corresponding support arm 201 located at the adjacent upper layer to rotate from the initial position S1 to the support position S3 by receiving the photovoltaic module 30.

[0087] It should be noted that even if the support arm 201 located on the upper layer is driven to the support position S3, if the photovoltaic module 30 is not supported on the support arm 201 at this time, the support arm 201 will not affect the state of the corresponding support arm 201 on the upper layer, that is, the support arm 201 located on the upper layer is still in the initial position S1.

[0088] In this embodiment, since the linkage driving relationship between the support arms 201 is changed, the intermediate position S2 recorded in the above embodiment is omitted, so the structure of the corresponding support arms 201 will also be changed.

[0089] Please continue to refer to Fig.10In this embodiment, the support arm 201 includes: a body 2011b, which is rotatably connected to the tooling frame 10; a pivot member 2012b and a pivot shaft 2013b, the pivot shaft 2013b is fixed to the body 2011b, and the pivot member 2012b is rotatably connected to the pivot shaft 2013b; a support portion 2014b and a driving portion 2015b, the support portion 2014b is fixedly connected to one side of the pivot member 2012b, and the driving portion 2015b is rotatably connected to the pivot member 2012b is on the other side opposite to the main body 2011b, and the driving part 2015b is slidably connected to the main body 2011b, the supporting part 2014b is used to support the photovoltaic module 30, and the driving part 2015b can vertically rise around the pivot axis 2013b when the supporting part 2014b supports the photovoltaic module 30, so as to apply force to the supporting arm 201 corresponding to the adjacent upper layer, so that the supporting arm 201 corresponding to the adjacent upper layer rotates from the initial position S1 to the supporting position S3.

[0090] Please continue to refer to Fig. 9 In this embodiment, when the support arm 201 is in the initial position S1, the driving portion 2015b is in a horizontal state; when the support arm 201 is in the supporting position S3, the driving portion 2015b is in a vertical state.

[0091] In other embodiments, the support arm may also be configured to include a trigger switch or sensor, and the driving part is configured to be a retractable structure. When the photovoltaic module contacts the support part, the trigger switch or sensor controls the driving part or sends a signal to the driving part to control the driving part to change from a contracted state to an extended state, thereby removing the support arm corresponding to the adjacent upper layer and converting it from the initial position to the supporting position.

[0092] Although the utility model is disclosed as above, the utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model shall be subject to the scope defined by the claims.
