A photovoltaic module generally consists of a glass plate, an EVA adhesive layer, solar cells, a backsheet, a junction box, a frame, etc. More than 90% of the materials can be recycled and reused, with considerable recycling value and high economic profits. Therefore, it is necessary to recycle photovoltaic modules after reaching their service life, which can not only alleviate the shortage of raw materials for photovoltaic devices to a certain extent, but also avoid environmental pollution.

Specific implementation manner

[0033] Example 1:

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1-8 , this embodiment is an automatic disassembly device 100 for the frame of a photovoltaic module, which includes a roller conveyor line 1 for conveying the photovoltaic module, a lifting and supporting mechanism 2 located below the roller conveyor line 1, a number of pressure plates 3 located above the roller conveyor line 1 and cooperating with the lifting and supporting mechanism 2 to press the photovoltaic module, a stop mechanism 4 located at the front position of the roller conveyor line 1 to block the photovoltaic module from moving forward, a long - side frame - removing unit 5 located above the left and right sides of the roller conveyor line 1, and a short - side frame - removing unit 6 located above the front and back sides of the roller conveyor line 1.

[0035] The lifting and supporting mechanism 2 includes a first cylinder 21, a bracket 22 driven by the first cylinder 21 to move up and down, and a number of support blocks 23 arranged on the bracket 22.

[0036] The stop mechanism 4 includes a second cylinder 41 and a blocking block 42 driven by the second cylinder 41 to move up and down.

[0037] The long - side frame - removing unit 5 includes a first motor 51, a first long - side frame - removing module 52 and a second long - side frame - removing module 53 driven by the first motor 51 to move closer to or away from each other.

[0038] Below the drum conveyor line 1, a pair of first slide rails 54 are provided, and the first slide rails 54 are arranged perpendicular to the conveying direction of the drum conveyor line 1. The first long-side frame removal module 52 and the second long-side frame removal module 53 are slidably arranged on the first slide rails 54 through sliders.

[0039] The first long-side frame removal module 52 and the second long-side frame removal module 53 have the same structure and both include a first support plate 521, a number of vertical plates 522 arranged on the first support plate 521, a first clamping plate 523 and a second clamping plate 524 that are slidably arranged up and down on the vertical plates 522 and are arranged opposite to each other up and down, a third air cylinder 525 fixed on the first support plate 521 and driving the first clamping plate 523 to move up and down, a fourth air cylinder 526 fixed on the first support plate 521 and driving the second clamping plate 524 to move up and down, and a first limit pressing plate 527 fixed on the first support plate 521 and parallel to the side of the first clamping plate 523.

[0040] The first support plate 521 is integrally arranged on a profile cross beam 529 through a number of support rods 528. The first support plate 521 is located above the conveying plane of the drum conveyor line 1, the profile cross beam 529 is located below the conveying plane of the drum conveyor line 1, and the support rods 528 pass through the gaps in the drum conveyor line 1. When the first long-side frame removal module 52 and the second long-side frame removal module 53 move closer to or away from each other, the support rods 528 can move perpendicular to the conveying direction of the drum conveyor line 1 in the gaps.

[0041] Below the profile cross beam 529, a pair of support plates 5210 are provided, and the support plates 5210 are slidably arranged on the first slide rails 54 through sliders. The profile cross beam 529 is lifted to a certain height through the support plates 5210 to be close to the conveying surface of the drum conveyor line 1.

[0042] When removing the frame, the first clamping plate 523 and the second clamping plate 524 in the first long-side frame removal module 52 and the second long-side frame removal module 53 are used to move closer to each other and clamp the aluminum frame on the long side of the photovoltaic module. Then, the first motor 51 drives the first long-side frame removal module 52 and the second long-side frame removal module 53 to move away from each other to remove the two long frames. During the removal process, the first limit pressing plate 527 effectively prevents the photovoltaic module from warping up.

[0043] The short-side frame removal unit 6 includes a first short-side frame removal module 61 located above the front side of the drum conveyor line 1, a second short-side frame removal module 62 arranged opposite to the first short-side frame removal module 61, and a second motor 63 driving the second short-side frame removal module 62 to move closer to or away from the first short-side frame removal module 61.

[0044] The first short-side frame removal module 61 includes a fixedly arranged first support truss 611, a fifth cylinder 612 fixed on the first support truss 611, a second support plate 613 driven by the fifth cylinder 612 to move back and forth, a sixth cylinder 614 fixed on the second support plate 613, a pair of third clamping plates 615 driven by the sixth cylinder 614 to move up and down to clamp or open, a seventh cylinder 616 fixed on the first support truss 611, and a second limiting pressure plate 617 driven by the seventh cylinder 616 to move up and down and press the short-side edge of the photovoltaic module.

[0045] The second short-side frame removal module 62 includes a second support truss 621, an eighth cylinder 622 and a ninth cylinder 623 fixed on the second support truss 621, a pair of fourth clamping plates 624 driven by the eighth cylinder 622 to move up and down to clamp or open, and a third limiting pressure plate 625 driven by the ninth cylinder 623 to move up and down and press the short-side edge of the photovoltaic module.

[0046] A pair of second slide rails 64 are arranged on the left and right sides of the roller conveyor line 1. Both sides of the second support truss 621 are slidably arranged on the second slide rails 64 through sliders, so that the second support truss 621 is erected above the roller conveyor line 1 and can move horizontally.

[0047] Vertical hook plates for hooking the module frame are provided on the first clamping plate 523, the second clamping plate 524, the third clamping plate 615 and the fourth clamping plate 624, and the frame is clamped in the form of hook clamping.

[0048] The working process of a photovoltaic module frame automatic disassembly device 100 in this embodiment is as follows: The photovoltaic module is input through the roller conveyor line 1, and the stop mechanism 4 extends upward to block the photovoltaic module; the lifting and supporting mechanism 2 lifts the photovoltaic module upward to a set height, and cooperates with several pressure plates 3 above the photovoltaic module to press a partial area of the photovoltaic module and then press the entire layout of the photovoltaic module; the two long-side frame removal modules move closer to each other, and the first clamping plate 523 and the second clamping plate 524 clamp the long-side frame; at the same time, a pair of third clamping plates 615 in the first short-side frame removal module 61 move backward and clamp one side of the short-side frame, and the second short-side frame removal module 62 moves close to the other short-side of the photovoltaic module and uses the fourth clamping plate 624 to clamp the short-side frame on this side; then, the two frame removal modules in the long-side frame removal unit 5 move apart from each other. At the same time, the second short-side frame removal module 62 moves away from the first short-side frame removal module 61, and at the same time removes the two long-side frames and the two short-side frames to complete the frame disassembly; after the lifting and supporting mechanism 2 lowers the photovoltaic module back onto the roller conveyor line 1, it is output.

[0049] The above are only some embodiments of the present utility model. For those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the creative concept of the present utility model, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
