[0029] The following will further describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments. The following embodiments or drawings are used to illustrate the present utility model, but not to limit the scope of the present utility model.
[0030] A photovoltaic panel transport vehicle, as Figures 1 to 6 shown, includes a transport vehicle main body 1, a crawler-type mobile base 2, a feeding roller group 3, a magazine-type feeding mechanism 4, and a photovoltaic panel lifting mechanism 6;
[0031] The crawler-type mobile base 2 is installed at the bottom of the transport vehicle main body 1;
[0032] The feeding roller group 3 and the photovoltaic panel lifting mechanism 6 are installed inside the transport vehicle main body 1, and the feeding roller group 3 is located below the photovoltaic panel lifting mechanism 6. The photovoltaic panel lifting mechanism 6 includes four lifting frames 60 symmetrically installed inside the transport vehicle main body 1, and a lifting chain 61 is installed inside the lifting frame 60;
[0033] The number of the magazine-type feeding mechanisms 4 is two, which are used for feeding photovoltaic panel fasteners. The two magazine-type feeding mechanisms 4 are symmetrically installed on the top of the transport vehicle main body 1.
[0034] The feeding roller set 3 sends the photovoltaic panels fed into the transport vehicle body 1 to directly below the photovoltaic panel lifting mechanism 6, and then the lifting chain 61 conveys the photovoltaic panels from bottom to top until the photovoltaic panels are lifted to the top of the transport vehicle body 1. The clip-type feeding mechanism 4 contains fasteners for installing the photovoltaic panels on the purlins. The lifting chain 61 is located at the long side of the photovoltaic panel, and the clip-type feeding mechanism 4 is located at the short side of the photovoltaic panel. The robotic arm can simultaneously grasp the photovoltaic panel and two fasteners through the fixture.
[0035] The lifting frame 60 not only supports the lifting chain 61 but also restricts the horizontal and vertical movement spaces of the photovoltaic panel. In cooperation with the lifting chain 61, it can stably lift the photovoltaic panel and limit the photovoltaic panel to a specified position, facilitating the positioning step of automatically grasping the photovoltaic panel by the robotic arm. In addition, the clip-type feeding mechanism 4 can provide fasteners at a specified position, and the relative positions between the fasteners and the photovoltaic panel are fixed. Therefore, the robotic arm can grasp the fasteners in a more precise manner while grasping the photovoltaic panel, simplifying the movement trajectory of the robotic arm and improving the efficiency of the robotic arm's automatic installation of the photovoltaic panel.
[0036] As Figures 4 to 6 shown, the clip-type feeding mechanism 4 includes a bracket 41 installed on the top of the transport vehicle body 1. A top-feeding component 42, a feeding box 43, and a pushing component 44 are respectively installed on the bracket 41. The top-feeding component 42 and the pushing component 44 are respectively located at the head and tail ends of the bracket 41, and the feeding box 43 is located between the top-feeding component 42 and the pushing component 44.
[0037] The top-feeding component 42 includes a limit support frame 45, a lifting slide plate 46, and a lifting device 47 installed on the bracket 41. The limit support frame 45 is close to the head of the feeding box 43. A dividing plate 48 is installed inside the limit support frame 45. The lifting slide plate 46 is located below the dividing plate 48. The lifting device 47 is connected to the lifting slide plate 46. A friction plate 49 is installed on the top of the dividing plate 48.
[0038] Under the restriction of the limit support frame 45, only one fastener will move onto the dividing plate 48 at a time. Controlling the lifting slide plate 46 to rise can lift the fastener for the robotic arm to suck. Under the frictional force between the fastener and the friction plate 49, the fastener remains stable during the lifting process.
[0039] The pushing component 44 includes a pushing seat 50, a pushing block 51, and a belt-type moving component 52. The pushing seat 50 and the belt-type moving component 52 are both installed on the bracket 41, and the pushing seat 50 is connected to the belt-type moving component 52. The pushing seat 50 is located at the tail of the feeding box 43. Two sliding shafts 53 extending towards the feeding box 43 are symmetrically installed on the pushing seat 50. The pushing block 51 is connected to the two sliding shafts 53. A compression spring 54 is connected between the pushing block 51 and the pushing seat 50.
[0040] The moving pusher seat 50 sequentially pushes the fasteners to cooperate with the ejector assembly 42 for feeding. Among them, the pusher block 51 on the pusher seat 50 is in direct contact with the fasteners. Under the action of the compression spring 54, the pusher block 51 can not only closely adhere to the fasteners to maintain a stable pushing function, but also prevent accidents caused by excessive force applied to the fasteners.
[0041] The belt-type moving assembly 52 includes two mounting seats 55 installed on the bracket 41. Belt pulleys 56 are installed on the mounting seats 55, and a moving belt 57 is sleeved between the two belt pulleys 56. The moving belt 57 is parallel to the feeding box 43. The pusher seat 50 is connected to the moving belt 57. A driving motor 58 that is power-connected to any one of the belt pulleys 56 is installed on the mounting seat 55.
[0042] As Figure 3 shown, the lifting frames 60 on the same side are in a group. A power assembly 62 is installed between the lifting frames 60 in the same group. The power assembly 62 includes a transmission shaft 63 and a motor 64. The transmission shaft 63 penetrates through the two lifting frames 60 in the same group, and the transmission shaft 63 is power-connected to the lifting chain 61 inside the lifting frame 60. The motor 64 is installed on any one of the lifting frames 60 in the same group. The motor 64 is connected to the transmission shaft 63 through a coupling. Lifting plates 65 for lifting the photovoltaic panel are installed on each link of the lifting chain 61.
[0043] As Figure 2 shown, two shock pads 5 are installed at the four corner positions of the transport vehicle main body 1, and two adjacent shock pads 5 are perpendicular to each other. The shock pads 5 are located above the feeding roller group 3, which can not only provide a buffering effect on the photovoltaic panel in the horizontal direction, but also cooperate with the lifting frames 60 to provide a limiting function for the photovoltaic panel.
[0044] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not impose any form of limitation on the present invention. Any simple modification or equivalent change made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
