Abstract

[0002] In the photovoltaic module production process, accurately applying tape to PV modules and tooling is a critical step in ensuring product connection reliability and quality. Traditional tape application methods rely primarily on manual labor, which is not only inefficient but also prone to problems such as misalignment and tape wrinkling, impacting the quality and consistency of the final product.

[0038] Specific structure such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown.
[0039] The present embodiment provides a tape-applying mechanism for a tooling circulation line, the tape-applying mechanism comprising: an adsorption plate 1 and a robotic arm; a negative pressure chamber is provided in the adsorption plate 1, an air suction port and a plurality of first adsorption ports are provided on the adsorption plate 1, and the air suction port and all the first adsorption ports are connected to the negative pressure chamber; the adsorption plate 1 has a connecting surface and an adsorption surface, the connecting surface is connected to the robotic arm, and all the first adsorption ports are located on the adsorption surface, so that the adsorption surface can adsorb the tape; the robotic arm drives the adsorption plate 1 to move, so as to apply the tape adsorbed on the adsorption surface to the photovoltaic module and the tooling, so as to connect the photovoltaic module and the tooling.
[0040] In this embodiment, the adsorption plate 1 is driven by a robotic arm to move to the tape, and the adsorption plate 1 adsorbs the tape through the adsorption surface. Then the robotic arm drives the adsorption plate 1 to move to the location where the photovoltaic components and tooling need to be posted and posts the tape to connect the photovoltaic components and tooling, thereby realizing automatic tape posting, saving manpower, improving production efficiency, and meeting the growing production capacity demand. At the same time, the adsorption plate 1 has a negative pressure cavity inside, and multiple first adsorption ports connected to the negative pressure cavity are arranged on the adsorption surface. The tape is adsorbed by the adsorption surface to ensure the stability of adsorption.
[0041] The optional technical solution of this embodiment also includes a lamination roller 2 and a lamination roller bracket 3; the lamination roller 2 is connected to the robotic arm through the lamination roller bracket 3; the lamination roller 2 is used to press the tape posted on the photovoltaic module and the tooling.
[0042] In this embodiment, after the adsorption plate 1 sticks the tape on the photovoltaic module and the tooling, the robotic arm drives the pressing roller 2 to roll on the stuck tape, pressing the tape on the photovoltaic module and the tooling to ensure that the tape is firmly stuck.
[0043] In an optional technical solution of this embodiment, a floating hole 4 is provided on the laminating roller bracket 3 , and the shaft of the laminating roller 2 is inserted into the floating hole 4 so that the laminating roller 2 can float relative to the laminating roller bracket 3 .
[0044] In this embodiment, when the robotic arm drives the lamination roller 2 to roll on the pasted tape, the lamination roller 2 can float on the lamination roller bracket 3, thereby avoiding damage to the photovoltaic modules and tooling due to excessive pressure during the rolling process.
[0045] The optional technical solution of this embodiment further includes a posting roller pressure seat 5; the posting roller pressure seat 5 is connected to the mechanical arm; the adsorption plate 1 and the pressing roller bracket 3 are both connected to the posting roller pressure seat 5.
[0046] In this embodiment, the adsorption plate 1 and the laminating roller bracket 3 are connected together on the pasting roller pressure seat 5, which has a simple structure and a stable connection, and can enable the adsorption plate 1 and the laminating roller 2 to move synchronously.
[0047] The optional technical solution of this embodiment further includes a posting cylinder 9; the posting cylinder 9 is connected to the posting roller press seat 5, and the adsorption plate 1 is connected to the output end of the posting cylinder 9.
[0048] In this embodiment, when applying the tape via the suction plate 1, the application cylinder 9 extends downward, lowering the suction plate 1 below the pressing roller 2. When application is complete, the application cylinder 9 retracts upward, raising the suction plate 1 above the pressing roller 2, and the applied tape is then rolled by the pressing roller 2. The application cylinder 9 drives the suction plate 1 upward and downward, preventing interference between the suction plate 1 and the pressing roller 2, thereby ensuring effective application and rolling of the tape.

The tape is adsorbed through the second adsorption ports 7 on the adsorption buffer pad 6. When posting, the adsorption buffer pad 6 contacts the tooling and the photovoltaic module. The adsorption buffer pad 6 has a buffering effect to avoid damage to the tooling and the photovoltaic module.
[0051] In an optional technical solution of this embodiment, the adsorption cushion 6 is connected to the adsorption plate 1 by bolts. The structure is simple, the connection is convenient, and the adsorption cushion 6 is easy to replace.
[0052] In the optional technical solution of this embodiment, the robotic arm is a three-axis robotic arm 8. That is, it can drive the adsorption plate 1 to move in three directions of X, Y, and Z, which is more flexible and convenient for tape pasting.
[0053] However, this embodiment is not limited thereto, and the robotic arm may also be a two-axis robotic arm or a three-axis or higher robotic arm, as long as the requirements are met.

[0056] The present embodiment provides a tooling circulation line, including the above-mentioned tape applying mechanism. Therefore, the technical advantages and effects achieved by the tooling circulation line include the technical advantages and effects achieved by the above-mentioned tape applying mechanism, 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.
