Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of photovoltaic component production, in particular to a tooling buffer conveying device and a tooling circulation line. Background Art
[0002] One of the processes in the manufacturing process of photovoltaic modules is the lamination process. During lamination, a lamination frame is generally placed on the periphery of the photovoltaic module. The outline of the hollow notch in the middle of the lamination frame is similar to the outline of the photovoltaic module. Through the setting of the lamination frame, on the one hand, during lamination, the height of the lamination mechanism's downward pressure is limited to prevent the glass from being crushed and bursting, thereby protecting the photovoltaic module; on the other hand, through the restriction of the hollow opening in the inner circle of the lamination frame, the four sides of the double-layer glass in the photovoltaic module can be limited to prevent the double glass from being dislocated during the lamination process.
[0003] After lamination is completed, the lamination frames need to be dismantled and transported back to the installation site for recycling. Existing technology generally installs a lamination frame return conveyor line above the laminator to achieve the return of the lamination frames. The lamination frames returned from the laminator are transported one by one to the ground. This one-by-one transport leads to low efficiency and is difficult to meet the growing production capacity demand. Utility Model Content

[0039] The present invention will be further described in detail below through specific implementation examples and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0040] Specific structure such as Figures 1 to 3 shown.
[0041] The present embodiment provides a tooling cache and conveying device for a tooling circulation line, which includes a tooling unloading station and a tooling loading station, and the tooling unloading station is higher than the tooling loading station, and the tooling cache and conveying device includes: a tooling cache mechanism 1 and a tooling conveying mechanism 2; the tooling cache mechanism 1 is arranged below the tooling unloading station, and the tooling conveying mechanism 2 is arranged between the tooling cache mechanism 1 and the tooling loading station; the tooling cache mechanism 1 includes a cache rack 3 and an elevator, the cache rack 3 is connected to the elevator, the cache rack 3 is used to stack tooling, and the elevator is used to drive the cache rack 3 to reciprocate between the tooling unloading station and the tooling conveying mechanism 2 to convey the tooling at the tooling unloading station to the tooling conveying mechanism 2, and the tooling conveying mechanism 2 is used to convey the tooling on the cache rack 3 to the tooling loading station.
[0042] In this embodiment, the cache rack 3 is driven to rise and fall by the elevator. When the elevator drives the cache rack 3 to rise to the tooling unloading station, the tooling at the tooling unloading station is stacked and cached on the cache rack 3. When a certain amount is cached, the elevator drives the cache rack 3 down to the tooling conveying mechanism 2, and conveys the tooling to the tooling conveying mechanism 2. The conveying mechanism conveys the tooling to the tooling loading station, thereby automatically conveying the tooling from the tooling unloading station to the tooling loading station, saving manpower, improving efficiency, and meeting the growing production capacity demand.
[0043] In an optional technical solution of this embodiment, the cache rack 3 includes a surrounding frame and a base frame 5. The surrounding frame is mounted on the base frame 5, and a tool stacking space is formed in the surrounding frame. The base frame 5 is connected to the elevator. By forming a tool stacking space in the surrounding frame, the tool is stacked in the stacking space to prevent it from falling or tipping over.
[0044] In the optional technical solution of this embodiment, the enclosure includes side blocks 6 and bottom blocks 7. The side blocks 6 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the base frame 5, and the bottom blocks 7 are arranged on the inner side of the side blocks 6. A tooling stacking space is formed between the side blocks 6 and the bottom blocks 7.
[0045] In this embodiment, the bottom block 7 is hollowed out to reduce weight, and the edge of the tooling is placed on the bottom block 7, which supports the tooling. The overall structure of the enclosure is simple, and it not only prevents the tooling from falling and tipping over, but also supports the tooling.
[0046] The optional technical solution of this embodiment also includes a tooling stacking space adjustment slide 8; the base frame 5 is square, and the side stops 6 on each side of the base frame 5 are slidably connected to the base frame 5 through the tooling stacking space adjustment slide 8, and the tooling stacking space adjustment slide 8 is used to drive the side stops 6 on the opposite sides of the base frame 5 to move closer to or away from each other.
[0047] In this embodiment, the shape of the tooling stacking space matches the shape of the tooling, that is, a square. The side guards 6 on each side of the base frame 5 can slide through the tooling stacking space adjustment slide 8, which not only allows the size of the tooling stacking space to be adjusted to accommodate tooling of different sizes and improve applicability, but also allows the tooling to be dropped by moving the side guards 6 outward on each side, facilitating tooling unloading.
[0048] The optional technical solution of this embodiment also includes a tool stacking space adjustment rack 9 and a tool stacking space adjustment motor 10; the tool stacking space adjustment rack 9 is mounted on the base frame 5, and the tool stacking space adjustment motor 10 is mounted on the side guard 6.

The tool stacking space adjustment rack 9 and the tool stacking space adjustment motor 10 cooperate to adjust the position of the side guard 6, providing a strong driving force, ensuring the stability of the tooling movement on the bottom guard 7, thereby ensuring the stability of the tooling unloading and facilitating the unloading of the tooling.
[0049] In the optional technical solution of this embodiment, the tooling conveying mechanism 2 includes a transport vehicle 11 and a ground rail 12; the transport vehicle 11 includes a fence 13 and a chassis 14, the fence 13 is arranged on the chassis 14, and a tooling stacking space is formed in the fence 13; the two ends of the ground rail 12 are respectively located below the base frame 5 and the tooling loading station; the chassis 14 is arranged on the ground rail 12, and the chassis 14 can reciprocate along the ground rail 12 between the bottom of the base frame 5 and the tooling loading station. When the chassis 14 is located below the base frame 5, the fence can enter the tooling stacking space to transfer the tooling in the tooling stacking space to the tooling stacking space.
[0050] In this embodiment, the transport vehicle 11 reciprocates along the ground rail 12 between the bottom of the tooling unloading station and the tooling loading station, and when the chassis 14 is located below the base frame 5, the enclosure can enter the tooling stacking space and move outward through the side block 6 to unload the tooling into the tooling stacking space to prevent it from falling outside the transport vehicle 11 during unloading. The transport vehicle 11 can transport the tooling on the cache rack 3 to the bottom and continue to transport it to the tooling loading station, saving manpower, improving efficiency, and meeting the growing production capacity demand. At the same time, a tooling stacking space is formed in the fence 13, and the tooling is stacked in the stacking space to prevent it from falling or tipping over.
[0051] This embodiment is not limited thereto, and the tooling conveying mechanism 2 may also be a conveying line, as long as the requirements are met.
[0052] In an optional technical solution of this embodiment, an anti-collision strip is provided on the inner side of the enclosure to avoid damage to the tooling.
[0053] In the optional technical solution of this embodiment, the elevator is a chain guide elevator 4. The lifting is stable, but it is not limited to this, and can also be a hydraulic elevator or other elevators, as long as it meets the needs.
[0054] In an optional technical solution of this embodiment, the chain guide elevator 4 is equipped with an anti-fall telescopic block 15, which is used to support the bottom of the buffer rack 3. When the elevator drives the buffer rack 3 up to the tooling unloading station, the anti-fall telescopic block 15 extends to support the buffer rack 3 to prevent it from falling and ensure the stability of the buffer rack 3.
[0055] Furthermore, the anti-fall telescopic block 15 is covered with a cover to effectively protect the anti-fall telescopic block 15 .
[0056] This embodiment provides a tooling circulation line, including the above-mentioned tooling cache conveying device. Therefore, the technical advantages and effects achieved by the tooling circulation line include the technical advantages and effects achieved by the above-mentioned tooling cache conveying device, which will not be repeated here.
[0057] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
