Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of photovoltaic component production, in particular to a tool lifting and reversing station and a tool circulation line. Background Art

[0002] Photovoltaic modules (solar cell modules) are devices that convert sunlight directly into electricity and are widely used in ground-based photovoltaic systems. With increasing market demand, the production efficiency and quality of photovoltaic modules have become increasingly important. Lamination is a key step in the production process. The photovoltaic modules are mounted on a tooling assembly and secured with tape. After lamination, the tape is removed and the tooling is removed. The tooling is then inspected to determine if it can continue to be used. If so, the tooling is returned to the installation area; if not, it is discarded and moved out. Currently, removed tooling is returned to the installation area via a conveyor line for reuse. However, because the conveyor line for returning the tooling is located side by side with the conveyor line for the photovoltaic modules with tooling exiting the laminator, it takes up a lot of space overall. The long length of the conveyor line results in low production efficiency, making it difficult to meet growing production capacity demands. Utility Model Content

[0038] Specific structure such as Figures 1 to 3 shown.

[0039] The present embodiment provides a tool lifting and reversing station for a tool circulation line. The tool lifting and reversing station includes: a tool reversing conveyor line, a photovoltaic module bus line with tooling, and a hoist. The tool reversing conveyor line is arranged on the upper side of the photovoltaic module bus line with tooling, and the tool reversing conveyor line includes a return tool reversing line 1, a first tool reflow line 2, a second tool reflow line 3, and an NG tool reflow line 4.

The second tooling return line 3 is higher than the first tooling return line 2 and the NG tooling return line 4; a lifting platform is provided on the hoist, and the return tooling reversing line 1 is provided on the lifting platform. The lifting platform can drive the return tooling reversing line 1 to rise and fall by lifting, so that the return tooling reversing line 1 is connected with the first tooling return line 2, and the return tooling reversing line 1 is selectively connected with the second tooling return line 3 and the NG tooling return line 4, and the first tooling return line 2 is used for reflowing NG tooling and non-NG tooling, the second tooling return line 3 is used for reflowing non-NG tooling, and the NG tooling return line 4 is used for reflowing NG tooling.

[0040] In this embodiment, both NG tooling and non-NG tooling are returned through the first tooling return line 2. In the initial state, the return tooling reversing line 1, the first tooling return line 2, and the NG tooling return line 4 are located in the same plane, and the return tooling reversing line 1 is connected to the first tooling return line 2. When the tooling returned by the first tooling return line 2 is an NG tooling, the NG tooling enters the reflow tooling reversing line from the first tooling return line 2 and then flows into the NG tooling return line 4. When the first tooling return line 2 returns When the tooling is non-NG, it enters the reflow tooling change line from the first tooling return line 2. The return tooling change line is then hoisted by a hoist and connected to the second tooling return line 3. The non-NG tooling then flows from the reflow tooling change line to the second tooling return line 3. The hoist drives the tooling reversing conveyor line up and down, automatically conveying both NG and non-NG tools. This saves manpower, improves efficiency, and meets growing production capacity demands. The simple structure also facilitates transportation. Furthermore, the tooling reversing conveyor line is located above the busbar carrying the tooling, saving space.

[0041] In the optional technical solution of this embodiment, the hoist is a guide rail hoist 11. It has a simple structure and low cost, and the lifting effect is stable. However, it is not limited to this and can also be a hydraulic hoist.

The structure is simple, and the hollow frame 13 is light in weight, ensuring the stability of lifting.

[0043] In an optional technical solution of this embodiment, the lifting platform further includes a reinforcing oblique beam 14; the reinforcing oblique beam 14 is disposed on the lower side of the hollow frame 13, with one end of the reinforcing oblique beam 14 connected to the end of the hollow frame 13 away from the lifting seat 12, and the other end of the reinforcing oblique beam 14 connected to the lifting seat 12. This improves the stability of the connection between the lifting seat 12 and the hollow frame 13.

[0044] In this embodiment, the tooling reversing conveyor line includes: a reflow tooling reversing line 1, a first tooling reflow line 2, a second tooling reflow line 3 and an NG tooling reflow line 4; the reflow tooling reversing line 1 is arranged between the first tooling reflow line 2, the second tooling reflow line 3 and the NG tooling reflow line 4; the reflow tooling reversing line 1 is connected with the first tooling reflow line 2, and the reflow tooling reversing line 1 is selectively connected with the second tooling reflow line 3 and the NG tooling reflow line 4, and the first tooling reflow line 2 is used to reflow NG tooling and non-NG tooling, the second tooling reflow line 3 is used to reflow non-NG tooling, and the NG tooling reflow line 4 is used to reflow NG tooling.

[0045] In this embodiment, both NG tooling and non-NG tooling are returned through the first tooling return line 2. When the tooling returned by the first tooling return line 2 is an NG tooling, the return tooling change line is connected to the NG tooling return line 4, and the NG tooling enters the return tooling change line from the first tooling return line 2 and then flows into the NG tooling return line 4. When the tooling returned by the first tooling return line 2 is a non-NG tooling, the return tooling change line is connected to the second tooling return line 3, and the non-NG tooling enters the return tooling change line from the first tooling return line 2 and then flows into the second tooling return line 3. Automatic transportation of NG tooling and non-NG tooling is achieved through the tooling reversing conveyor line, which saves manpower, improves efficiency, and meets the growing production capacity demand. At the same time, it has a simple structure and is convenient to transport.

[0046] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the first tooling return line 2, the second tooling return line 3 and the NG tooling return line 4 can be of the same height; or they can be of different heights or two of them can be of the same height. In this case, the return tooling reversing line 1 can be raised and lowered to achieve connection between the return tooling reversing line 1 and the first tooling return line 2, and selective connection between the second tooling return line 3 and the NG tooling return line 4.

[0047] In an optional technical solution of this embodiment, the reflow tooling reversing line 1 includes a first line body 5 and a second line body 6. A pair of first line bodies 5 and second line bodies 6 are provided, with the pair of second line bodies 6 disposed between the pair of first line bodies 5. The upstream end of the first line body 5 communicates with the first tooling reflow line 2, and the downstream end of the first line body 5 communicates with the NG tooling reflow line 4. The downstream end of the second line body 6 communicates with the second tooling reflow line 3. The reflow tooling reversing line 1 has a simple structure and stable conveying and reversing.

[0048] In the optional technical solution of this embodiment, the reflow tooling reversing line 1 also includes a synchronous lifter, and a pair of second wire bodies 6 are both connected to the synchronous lifter; the synchronous lifter is located on the lower side of the pair of second wire bodies 6, and is used to synchronously drive the pair of second wire bodies 6 to rise and fall relative to the first wire body 5.

[0049] In this embodiment, when the first wire body 5 is being transported, the second wire body 6 is lower than the first wire body 5. When the second wire body 6 is needed to be transported, the second wire body 6 is higher than the first wire body 5, avoiding mutual interference in transportation and ensuring the reliability of transportation.

[0050] In the optional technical solution of this embodiment, the reflow tooling reversing line 1 also includes a telescopic stop shaft 7, which is arranged on the first line body 5, and the telescopic stop shaft 7 is located at the downstream end of the first line body 5. The telescopic stop shaft 7 is used to stop non-NG tooling.

[0051] In this embodiment, when the second wire body 6 needs to be transported, the tooling flows into the first wire body 5 and is stopped by the telescopic stopping shaft 7, thereby ensuring the reliability of the transportation of the second wire body 6.

[0052] In an optional technical solution of this embodiment, the reflow tooling reversing line 1 further includes a telescopic stop shaft drive cylinder 8, which is mounted on the first line body 5. The output end of the telescopic stop shaft drive cylinder 8 is connected to the telescopic stop shaft 7. The telescopic stop shaft 7 is driven to extend and retract by the telescopic stop shaft drive cylinder 8, resulting in a simple structure and stable driving effect. However, this is not limiting. The telescopic stop shaft drive cylinder 8 can also be replaced with a telescopic stop shaft 7 drive motor.

[0053] In an optional technical solution of this embodiment, the reflow tooling reversing line 1 further includes a first transition line 9. The first transition line 9 is provided on the first line body 5 and is located at the downstream end of the first line body 5. The first line body 5 is connected to the NG tooling reflow line 4 via the first transition line 9. This ensures the reliability of the connection between the first line body 5 and the NG tooling reflow line 4.

[0054] In an optional technical solution of this embodiment, the first transition line 9 is rotatably connected to the first line body 5 and can be flipped relative to the first line body 5. When the first line body 5 and the NG tooling return line 4 do not need to be connected, the first transition line 9 can be flipped up.

[0055] An optional technical solution of this embodiment further includes a second transition line 10; the second transition line 10 is provided on the first tooling return line 2 and is located at the downstream end of the first tooling return line 2. The first tooling return line 2 is connected to the return tooling reversing line 1 through the second transition line 10. This ensures the reliability of the connection between the first tooling return line 2 and the return tooling reversing line 1.

[0056] In an optional technical solution of this embodiment, the second transition line 10 is rotatably connected to the first tooling return line 2 and can be flipped relative to the first tooling return line 2. The second transition line 10 has the same effect as the first transition line 9 and will not be described again here.

[0057] It should be noted that the conveying direction of the first line body 5 is the same as that of the first tooling return line 2 and the NG tooling return line 4 , and the conveying direction of the second line body 6 is the same as that of the second tooling return line 3 .

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.
