[0024] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the specific embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following description sets forth many specific details to facilitate a full understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways than those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without violating the scope of the present application. Therefore, the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0026] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" and the like indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present application.

[0027] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood to indicate or imply relative importance or implicitly specify the number of the technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In the description of this application, "plurality" means at least two, for example, two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0028] In this application, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," "connect," "fixed," etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connection, detachable connection, or integration; mechanical connection or electrical connection; direct connection or indirect connection through an intermediate medium; internal communication between two elements or interaction between two elements, unless otherwise specified. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this application based on specific circumstances.

[0029] For example, see Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a handling device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The handling device of the present application can be used to transport materials. For example, it can be used to transport materials during the photovoltaic module production process. Specifically, it can be used to transport materials such as glass, solar cells, and photovoltaic modules.

[0030] Reference Figures 1 and 2 As shown, the present application provides a transport device, including a storage bin 10, a wind device 20, an adsorption member 30 and a connector 40. One side of the storage bin 10 is provided with an air outlet 11. The adsorption member 30 is connected to the opposite side of the storage bin 10 having the air outlet 11 through the connector 40. The side of the adsorption member 30 away from the storage bin 10 has an adsorption surface for contacting the material. The wind device 20 is arranged in the storage bin 10, and the wind device 20 is used to blow air toward the air outlet 11. The transport device has an air suction channel 50, and the air suction channel 50 passes through the connector 40, the side wall of the storage bin 10 connected to the connector 40, and the adsorption member 30 in the same direction.

[0031] The above-mentioned transport device can transport materials by adsorbing them. When in use, the adsorption surface of the adsorption member 30 can be fitted with the material, and the wind device 20 provided in the storage bin 10 blows air toward the air outlet 11, which can form a negative pressure effect inside the storage bin 10, so that a pressure difference is formed between the opening side of the suction channel 50 in the storage bin 10 and the opening side located on the adsorption member 30, so as to adsorb the material on the adsorption surface of the adsorption member 30. Thus, the transport of the material is achieved. It can be understood that the suction channel 50 passes through the connector 40, the side wall of the storage bin 10 connected to the connector 40, and the adsorption member 30 in the same direction, which means that the opening on one side of the suction channel 50 is located on the contact surface, and the corresponding opening on the other side is located on the inner surface of the side wall of the storage bin 10 connected to the connector 40, and the suction channel 50 passes through the connector 40, the side wall of the storage bin 10, and the adsorption member 30 at the same time. The transport device of the present application can be used for transporting photovoltaic modules. By adsorbing the transport device on the middle part of the photovoltaic module to transport the photovoltaic module, the risk of glass cracking due to bending of the middle part of the photovoltaic module during transportation can be reduced.

[0032] It is understandable that when the wind device 20 disposed in the storage bin 10 blows air toward the air outlet 11, the air in the storage bin 10 can be discharged from the storage bin 10 through the air outlet 11. After the air in the storage bin 10 is discharged, a low pressure is formed inside the storage bin 10, which forms a pressure difference with the high pressure outside, i.e., on the side of the opening of the suction channel 50 on the adsorption member 30. This can generate a suction force on the material by the transport device, which is actually the atmospheric thrust below the material. When the suction force is sufficient to meet the material's own weight, the material can be lifted and transported.

[0033] In some embodiments, the opening area of ​​the air suction channel 50 is smaller than the area of ​​the air outlet 11 .

[0034] The opening area of ​​the suction channel 50 is smaller than the area of ​​the air outlet 11, which is conducive to achieving a sufficient pressure difference to adsorb the material.

[0035] In some embodiments, the volume of the suction channel 50 is smaller than the volume of the accommodating chamber 10 .

[0036] The volume of the suction channel 50 is smaller than the volume of the accommodating bin 10, which is conducive to achieving a sufficient pressure difference to adsorb the material.

[0037] In some embodiments, the transport device further includes a positioning member 60 , which includes a plurality of blocking members that are relatively spaced apart. The blocking members are disposed on the adsorption member 30 and protrude from the adsorption surface.

[0038] The positioning member 60 facilitates the positioning of the material to be transported. When the adsorption surface is attached to the surface of the material, the material can be placed between the spaced blocking members, and the blocking members can be used to limit the position of the material and reduce the relative movement between the material and the adsorption member 30. For example, referring to Figure 3 As shown, when the photovoltaic assembly 80 is transported using the transport device of an embodiment of the present application, the distance between the blocking members can be set to be equivalent to the width of the photovoltaic assembly, so that when the photovoltaic assembly is adsorbed by the transport device, the blocking members can abut against the side of the photovoltaic assembly, thereby reducing the relative displacement between the photovoltaic assembly and the transport device.

[0039] In some embodiments, the opening of the suction channel 50 on the suction surface is located between the spaced-apart blocking members.

[0040] The opening of the suction channel 50 on the adsorption surface is located between the spaced-apart blocking members. When the material is positioned and restricted by the relatively spaced-apart blocking members, the opening of the suction channel 50 on the adsorption surface can be prevented from being exposed to the material, resulting in loose adsorption and reducing the risk of material falling.

[0041] In some embodiments, there are multiple suction channels 50, and the multiple suction channels 50 are distributed sequentially along the second direction, and the second direction is different from the first direction.

[0042] In some embodiments, the length of the suction channel 50 along the first direction is 0.5 m to 1 m.

[0043] The length of the suction channel 50 along the first direction facilitates the formation of a suitable pressure differential, enabling the transport device to be suitable for transporting photovoltaic modules. Optionally, the length of the suction channel 50 along the first direction is 0.5 m, 0.55 m, 0.6 m, 0.65 m, 0.7 m, 0.75 m, 0.8 m, 0.85 m, 0.9 m, 0.95 m, or 1 m. Alternatively, the length of the suction channel 50 along the first direction may be within a range between any two of the aforementioned lengths.

[0044] In some embodiments, the total width of the plurality of suction channels 50 along the second direction is 0.6 m to 1.5 m.

[0045] Within the range of the sum of the widths of the plurality of suction channels 50 along the second direction, a suitable pressure differential is advantageously formed to enable the transport device to be suitable for transporting photovoltaic modules. Optionally, the sum of the widths of the plurality of suction channels 50 along the second direction is 0.6 m, 0.65 m, 0.7 m, 0.75 m, 0.8 m, 0.9 m, 1 m, 1.1 m, 1.2 m, 1.3 m, 1.35 m, 1.4 m, 1.45 m, or 1.5 m. Alternatively, the sum of the widths of the plurality of suction channels 50 along the second direction may be within a range between any two of the aforementioned lengths.

[0046] In some embodiments, the opening shape of the air suction channel 50 is long and strip-shaped, and the length of the air suction channel 50 extends along the first direction.

[0047] In some embodiments, the opening of the air suction channel 50 is rectangular.

[0048] For example, again referring to Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 The X direction is the first direction, and the Y direction is the second direction.

[0049] In some embodiments, the suction channel 50 passes through the connecting member 40, the side wall connecting the accommodating bin 10 and the connecting member 40, and the adsorption member 30 along a third direction, and the third direction is perpendicular to both the first direction and the second direction.

[0050] For example, again referring to Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 The Z direction is the third direction.

[0051] In some embodiments, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular.

[0052] In some embodiments, the number of the blocking members is two.

[0053] In some embodiments, the two blocking members are respectively disposed at edge positions on both sides of the adsorption surface along the first direction.

[0054] In some embodiments, the transport device further includes a handle, which is disposed on the accommodating compartment 10 .

[0055] The handle is provided to facilitate manual handling of materials. After the materials are adsorbed on the handling device, they can be carried by the handle.

[0056] In some embodiments, the handles are disposed on outer walls on two opposite sides of the accommodating compartment 10 .

[0057] The handles are provided on the outer walls of the two opposite sides of the accommodating compartment 10 , so that when a larger photovoltaic module is transported by a transport device, two workers can conveniently carry the photovoltaic module together on the two opposite sides of the transport device.

[0058] In some embodiments, an elastic layer is provided on the adsorption surface.

[0059] Providing an elastic layer on the adsorption surface can reduce the damage to the material caused by the adsorption member and the material when they come into contact. For example, it can reduce the damage to the surface film layer of the battery cell when the battery cell is transported.

[0060] In some embodiments, the elastic layer covers the surface of the adsorption surface where the air suction channel 50 is not provided.

[0061] In some embodiments, the transport device further includes a control member 70 , which is disposed on the storage compartment 10 . The control member 70 is electrically connected to the wind power device 20 , and the control member 70 is used to control the wind power device 20 .

[0062] In some embodiments, the transport device includes a storage bin 10, a wind device 20, an adsorbent 30, and a connector 40. One side of the storage bin 10 has an air outlet 11. The adsorbent 30 is connected to the opposite side of the storage bin 10 having the air outlet 11 through the connector 40. The side of the adsorbent 30 away from the storage bin 10 has an adsorption surface for contacting the material. The wind device 20 is disposed in the storage bin 10 and is used to blow air toward the air outlet 11. The transport device has an air suction channel 50, which passes through the connector 40, the side wall of the storage bin 10 connected to the connector 40, and the adsorbent 30 in the same direction. The opening area of ​​the air suction channel 50 is smaller than the area of ​​the air outlet 11. The transport device also includes a positioning member 60, which includes a plurality of relatively spaced blocking members, which are disposed on the adsorbent 30 and protrude from the adsorption surface. The opening of the air suction channel 50 on the adsorption surface is located between the spaced blocking members. There are multiple suction channels 50, and the multiple suction channels 50 are distributed sequentially along the second direction, which is different from the first direction. The opening shape of the suction channel 50 is a long strip, and the length of the suction channel 50 extends along the first direction. The length of the suction channel 50 along the first direction is 0.5m~1m. The sum of the widths of the multiple suction channels 50 along the second direction is 0.6m~1.5m. The transporting device also includes a handle, which is provided on the accommodating bin 10. The handle is provided on the outer walls on two opposite sides of the accommodating bin 10. The transporting device also includes a control component 70, which is provided on the accommodating bin 10. The control component 70 is electrically connected to the wind power device 20, and the control component 70 is used to control the wind power device 20.

[0063] The technical features of the above-mentioned embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-mentioned embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0064] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation methods of the present application. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art could make various modifications and improvements without departing from the spirit of the present application, all of which fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
