Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a photovoltaic component production device, in particular to an automatic isolation strip feeding device. Background Art

[0002] Photovoltaic modules are the core part of solar power generation systems. With the continuous development of photovoltaic module technology, the requirements for module quality are getting higher and higher. During the production process, multiple battery cells need to be welded in series to form a battery string, and multiple battery strings need to be connected through bus bars to form a battery array. In order to prevent short circuits between bus bars, isolation strips are needed to isolate the bus bars. At present, most photovoltaic companies manually place isolation strips before the lamination process, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. At the same time, manual loading can easily cause the isolation strips to be damaged or dirty, affecting the yield and performance reliability of photovoltaic modules. The cost of rework is very high, affecting the production efficiency and profits of the company. Utility Model Content

[0003] Purpose of the utility model: The purpose of the utility model is to improve the production efficiency of photovoltaic modules and reduce labor costs, and to provide an automatic feeding device for isolation strips.

[0004] Technical solution: The automatic isolation strip feeding device described in the utility model includes a bracket mounted on the production line, an isolation strip material box arranged between the brackets and a movable frame sliding along the production line on the bracket, and the movable frame is provided with an isolation strip grabbing device; the isolation strip grabbing device includes a suction cup for grabbing the isolation strip and a control device for controlling the up and down movement of the suction cup.

[0005] Furthermore, the isolation strip grabbing device is arranged in the middle of the movable frame.

[0006] Furthermore, the suction cup is fixed on the isolation strip grabbing device through a suction cup bracket.

[0007] Furthermore, the suction cup is a vacuum suction cup, and a plurality of them are symmetrically arranged.

[0008] Furthermore, the suction cup bracket is a suction cup bracket with a stroke, and a stroke switch is provided at the bottom of the suction cup bracket. When the material in the isolation bar material box is reduced to a certain amount, the stroke switch cannot touch the isolation bar, and the control device controls the suction cup bracket to continue to descend. When the suction cup bracket descends to its maximum stroke, if the suction cup still cannot absorb the isolation bar, an alarm signal will be issued to remind the worker to add isolation bars to ensure the normal operation of the production line.

[0009] Furthermore, the isolation strip material box may be provided with a material detection device and an alarm device to monitor the number of isolation strips, and when the material is reduced to a certain amount, workers are reminded to add isolation strips to ensure the normal operation of the production line.

[0010] Furthermore, the control device may also be provided with a material monitoring module and an alarm module to remind workers to add isolation strips to ensure the normal operation of the production line when the material is reduced to a certain amount.

[0011] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages: 1. It realizes automatic loading of isolation strips, saving the labor cost of the enterprise; 2. It avoids damage and dirt of the isolation strips caused by manual contact, improves the yield rate and stability of photovoltaic module performance; 3. The device is equipped with a material detection device to remind workers to replenish materials in time, ensure the normal operation of the production line, and improve production efficiency; 4.

[0012] Figure 1 It is a structural schematic diagram of the utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0013] The technical solution of the utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0014] Example 1

[0015] like Figure 1 The automatic feeding device for isolation strips shown in the figure includes a bracket 1 erected on a production line 7, an isolation strip material box 6 arranged between the brackets 1, and a movable frame 3 sliding along the production line on the bracket 1, and an isolation strip grabbing device 2 is arranged in the middle of the movable frame 3. The isolation strip grabbing device 2 includes a suction cup 5 for grabbing the isolation strip and a control device for controlling the up and down movement of the suction cup 5. The suction cup 5 is fixed to the isolation strip grabbing device 2 through a suction cup bracket 4. The suction cup 5 is a vacuum suction cup and 6 suction cups are symmetrically arranged. The suction cup bracket 4 is a suction cup bracket with a stroke, and a stroke switch is provided at the bottom of the suction cup bracket 4. When the material in the isolation strip material box 6 is reduced to a certain amount, the stroke switch cannot touch the isolation strip, and the control device controls the suction cup bracket 4 to continue to descend. When the suction cup bracket 4 descends to its maximum stroke, if the suction cup 5 still cannot absorb the isolation strip, an alarm signal will be issued to remind the worker to add isolation strips to ensure the normal operation of the production line.

[0016] Example 2

[0017] The difference from Example 1 is that a material detection device and an alarm device are arranged on the isolation strip material box 6. The material detection device sets the minimum storage capacity of the isolation strip material box 6 and detects the amount of material in the isolation strip material box in real time. When the detection device cannot detect the isolation strip, the alarm device reminds the workers to add isolation strips to ensure the normal operation of the production line.

[0018] Example 3

[0019] The difference from Examples 1 and 2 is that a material monitoring module and an alarm module are provided in the control device. The monitoring module sets the number of isolation strips when the silo is full, and the value is subtracted by 1 after each grab. When the remaining number is less than 10, the alarm module emits a buzzer alarm to remind workers to add isolation strips to ensure the normal operation of the production line.
