[0002] The PVD process is a crucial step in the manufacturing of photovoltaic cells. PVD, short for physical vapor deposition (PVD), uses magnetron sputtering equipment to deposit one or more thin films, such as transparent conductive films, onto the surface of the object being coated.

[0045] The PVD process is a critical step in the manufacturing of photovoltaic cells.

Ensuring and improving the quality of the transparent conductive film can further enhance the photovoltaic cell's photoelectric conversion efficiency and electrical performance.

[0046] In related technologies, carriers are typically used to support the parts to be coated, ensuring stability and safety during the coating process. As coating progresses, carriers often need to be replaced due to external contamination, collision damage, and other factors. When replacing carriers, operators must shut down the production equipment to transfer the replacement carrier onto a transfer cart. The transfer cart then docks the new carrier at the carrier entrance and exit of the production equipment.

[0047] However, frequent startups and shutdowns severely reduced production line efficiency. Furthermore, manually replacing carriers was time-consuming and labor-intensive, resulting in excessively high labor costs.

[0048] To address the above-mentioned issues, embodiments of the present application provide a transmission and storage device and production system. The transmission and storage device includes: a first transmission component, a lifting component, and a storage module arranged along a first direction, wherein the first transmission component is configured to receive carriers within the production equipment or to transfer carriers into the production equipment; the lifting component is connected to the first transmission component and is configured to drive the first transmission component to rise and fall along a second direction to selectively connect to the carrier inlet or carrier outlet of the production equipment; the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction; the storage module includes a plurality of storage units spaced apart along the second direction and configured to selectively align with the first transmission component to receive or output carriers; the device also includes a second transmission component disposed within the storage module and configured to transfer carriers between the storage units and the first transmission component. This device can realize the automated replacement of carriers, eliminating the need to frequently start and stop the production equipment, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0049] The following specific embodiments describe in detail the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application and how the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application solve the above-mentioned technical problems. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0050] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 . This embodiment provides a transmission and storage device 20, comprising: a first transmission component 100, a lifting component 200 and a storage module 300 arranged along a first direction, wherein the first transmission component 100 is configured to receive a carrier in the production equipment 10 or to transfer the carrier into the production equipment; the lifting component 200 is connected to the first transmission component 100, and the lifting component 200 is configured to drive the first transmission component 100 to rise and fall along a second direction to selectively connect to the carrier inlet or carrier outlet of the production equipment 10; the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction; the storage module 300 includes a plurality of storage units arranged at intervals along the second direction; the storage unit is configured to selectively align with the first transmission component 100 to receive or output the carrier. The transmission and storage device 20 also includes: a second transmission component 400, the second transmission component 400 is arranged in the storage module 300, and the second transmission component 400 is configured to transfer the carrier between the storage unit and the first transmission component 100.

[0051] Specifically, in this embodiment, the carrier outlet 12 and the carrier inlet 11 of the production equipment 10 are arranged up and down along the first direction, and the first transmission component 100 can be selectively connected to the carrier outlet 12 or the carrier inlet 11 to receive the carrier in the production equipment 10 through the carrier outlet 12, or to transmit the carrier into the production equipment 10 through the carrier inlet 11.

[0052] In this embodiment, the carrier outlet 12 is disposed above the carrier inlet 11 . In other embodiments, the carrier outlet 12 may also be disposed below the carrier inlet 11 , and this embodiment does not impose any limitation on this.

[0053] In an exemplary embodiment, the carrier outlet 12 and the carrier inlet 11 are both long slots provided on the production equipment 10 for the carriers to enter and exit.

[0054] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the production equipment 10 is the main part of the production line, including processing equipment, testing equipment, and conveying equipment.

[0055] In an exemplary embodiment, the production equipment 10 is the main part of the production system 00, including coating equipment, conveying equipment, pre-processing equipment, and post-processing equipment.

[0056] Specifically, in this embodiment, the transmission storage device 20 is disposed at the end point of the production device 10 to receive the carriers in the production device 10 .

[0057] In other embodiments, the installation location of the transmission storage device 20 may also be adaptively selected according to needs, and this embodiment does not impose any limitation on this.

[0058] Specifically, the first transmission assembly 100 is disposed on the lifting assembly 200 , and the lifting assembly 200 can drive the first transmission assembly 100 to rise and fall along the second direction, so as to dock with the carrier outlet 12 or dock with the carrier inlet 11 .

[0059] When the carrier has not reached its service life, the lifting assembly 200 drives the first transmission assembly 100 to rise to the carrier outlet 12 to receive the carrier, and then drives the first transmission assembly 100 down to the carrier inlet 11 to put the carrier back into the production equipment 10, thereby realizing the circulation of the carrier.

[0060] When the carrier reaches its service life, the lifting component 200 drives the first transmission component 100 to rise to the carrier outlet 12 to receive the carrier to be replaced. The first transmission component 100 transports the carrier to be replaced to an empty storage unit of the storage module 300. The second transmission component 400 transfers the carrier to be replaced to the accommodating cavity of the storage unit, and then transfers the new carrier in a storage unit to the first transmission component 100. Then the lifting component 200 drives the first transmission component 100 to descend to the carrier entrance 11, and then the new carrier is transferred to the carrier entrance 11 through the first transmission component 100, thereby realizing the replacement of the carrier.

[0061] By adopting the above technical solution, the recycling of carrier boards and the automation of carrier board replacement are realized, thereby improving the efficiency of carrier board replacement.

[0062] When manually replacing a carrier board, operators need to enter the production line area to perform the operation. Therefore, to ensure the safety of the operators, the production equipment 10 must be shut down, and the production equipment 10 must be restarted after the carrier board is replaced, resulting in low operating efficiency of the production equipment 10. The transmission and storage device provided in this embodiment uses automated carrier board replacement, eliminating the need to frequently start or stop the production equipment 10, thereby ensuring production efficiency and saving production costs.

[0063] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 In an optional embodiment, the lifting assembly 200 includes a slide rail 210 arranged along the second direction; a sliding member 220 slidably disposed on the slide rail 210; and a first driving member 230 disposed on the slide rail 210 and connected to the sliding member 220. The first driving member 230 is configured to drive the sliding member 220 to slide along the slide rail 210.

[0064] Specifically, in this embodiment, the lifting assembly 200 includes a slide rail 210 , a sliding member 220 and a first driving member 230 . The sliding member 220 is slidably disposed on the slide rail 210 and can slide along the slide rail 210 .

[0065] The extension direction of the slide rail 210 is the same as the setting direction of the carrier outlet 12 and the carrier inlet 11, for example, both are a second direction perpendicular to the working ground, so as to facilitate the docking of the first transmission component 100 with the carrier outlet 12 or the carrier inlet 11.

[0066] Specifically, in this embodiment, a sliding groove is formed on the sliding member 220 , and both sides of the slide rail 210 are inserted into the sliding groove to limit the sliding direction of the sliding member 220 and prevent the sliding member 220 from deflecting during the sliding process.

[0067] At the same time, it should be noted that in other optional embodiments, the sliding cooperation mode between the sliding member 220 and the slide rail 210 can also be adaptively selected according to needs, and this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0068] In this embodiment, the lifting assembly 200 includes a first driving member 230 , which is disposed on the slide rail 210 and connected to the sliding member 220 , thereby driving the sliding member 220 to slide along the slide rail 210 to drive the first transmission assembly 100 to move up and down.

[0069] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 In an optional embodiment, the lifting assembly 200 further includes a transmission shaft 240 . A through hole is provided on the sliding member 220 . The transmission shaft 240 is disposed through the through hole and cooperates with the lead screw of the sliding member 220 . The first driving member 230 is configured to drive the transmission shaft 240 to rotate.

[0070] Specifically, in this embodiment, the lifting assembly 200 further includes a transmission shaft 240, the ends of which respectively abut against the ends of the slide rail 210. A first driving member 230 is disposed at one end of the slide rail 210 and connected to one end of the transmission shaft 240. The slide member 220 has a through hole, through which the transmission shaft 240 is disposed and engages with the lead screw of the slide member 220. The first driving member 230 drives the transmission shaft 240 to rotate, thereby causing the slide member 220 to move up and down along the slide rail 210.

[0071] By using the lead screw, efficient, accurate and stable transmission can be achieved, ensuring the stability of the transmission between the slider 220 and the slide rail 210. At the same time, the lead screw has a high load capacity to avoid the problem of unstable and unsmooth sliding caused by the excessive weight of the first transmission assembly 100.

[0072] At the same time, it should be noted that when the transmission shaft 240 and the sliding member 220 are matched with each other in the form of a screw, they can be a ball screw or other types of screws, and this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0073] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 In an optional embodiment, the first transmission assembly 100 includes a first support member 110 disposed on the sliding member 220; a second driving member 120 disposed on the first support member 110; and a first conveyor belt 130 connected to an output end of the second driving member 120.

[0074] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first transmission assembly 100 includes a first support member 110 , which is disposed on the sliding member 220 , thereby achieving lifting and sliding under the drive of the sliding member 220 .

[0075] Specifically, a first conveyor belt 130 and a second driving member 120 are provided on the first support member 110. The two ends of the first support member 110 are respectively arranged close to the production equipment 10 and the storage module 300 to facilitate receiving the carrier. The second driving member 120 is configured to drive the first conveyor belt 130 to rotate, thereby realizing the transmission of the carrier.

[0076] In this embodiment, the first support member 110 is made of high-strength material to ensure that the first support member 110 has good stability while bearing the transmission load.

[0077] In an exemplary embodiment, the first support member 110 and the sliding member 220 are fixed with bolts to ensure a tight and stable connection between the first support member 110 and the sliding member 220. At the same time, the use of a detachable bolt connection method can greatly improve the convenience of operation when installation and maintenance are required.

[0078] In other optional embodiments, the connection method between the first support member 110 and the sliding member 220 may also be adaptively selected according to needs, and this embodiment does not impose any limitation on this.

[0079] In an exemplary embodiment, the first conveyor belt 130 is made of a wear-resistant and anti-slip material to ensure that there is no relative displacement between the carrier plate and the first conveyor belt 130 during transmission.

[0080] In an optional embodiment, the first transmission component 100 also includes a first tensioning member, which is arranged on the first support member 110 and abuts against the first conveyor belt 130 to ensure the tension of the first conveyor belt 130 and avoid problems of deviation and wear.

[0081] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 In an optional embodiment, the first transmission assembly 100 further includes a first position-limiting member disposed on the first support member 110 to limit the position of the first conveyor belt 130 and ensure that the first conveyor belt 130 maintains a straight line during the transmission process.

[0082] In an optional embodiment, there are two first conveyor belts 130, and the two first conveyor belts 130 are arranged opposite to each other. The first transmission component 100 also includes a first drive belt 140 and a first drive shaft 150. The two first conveyor belts 130 are respectively mounted on the two ends of the first drive shaft 150, and the two ends of the first drive belt 140 are respectively mounted on the output end of the second drive member 120 and the first drive shaft 150. The second drive member 120 is configured to drive the first drive shaft 150 to rotate through the first drive belt 140.

[0083] Specifically, in this embodiment, there are two first conveyor belts 130, which are arranged opposite each other. Accordingly, there are two lifting assemblies 200, which are arranged opposite each other, with each first conveyor belt 130 corresponding to a lifting assembly 200. Thus, the two lifting assemblies 200 work together to achieve the lifting of the first transmission assembly 100.

[0084] Among them, the second driving member 120 is arranged on the first supporting member 110, and the two ends of the first driving belt 140 are respectively mounted on the output end of the second driving member 120 and the first driving shaft 150, so that the second driving member 120 drives the first driving shaft 150 to rotate through the first driving belt 140, thereby driving the two first conveyor belts 130 located on both sides of the first driving shaft 150 to rotate synchronously, thereby realizing the transportation of the carrier.

[0085] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 In an optional embodiment, there are two first support members 110, which are arranged corresponding to the first conveyor belt 130. The first transmission component 100 also includes a plurality of first reinforcement members 160, and the two ends of the first reinforcement member 160 are respectively connected to the two first support members 110, thereby ensuring the stability of the support of the first support member 110.

[0086] The second driving member 120 is disposed on a first reinforcement member 160 close to the first driving shaft 150 .

[0087] The number and position of the first reinforcement members 160 can be adaptively selected according to the length of the first support member 110 and the size and weight of the carrier plate to provide a fixing point for the first support member 110 and ensure the stability of the transmission process.

[0088] In an optional embodiment, the storage module 300 includes a first shell 310 and a plurality of second support members 320 . A receiving cavity 311 is formed in the first shell 310 , and the plurality of second support members 320 are disposed on two opposite inner walls of the first shell 310 .

[0089] Specifically, in this embodiment, the storage module 300 includes a first shell 310 and a plurality of second support members 320 . The second support members 320 are disposed on two opposite inner walls of the first shell 310 for placing a carrier to be replaced or a new carrier.

[0090] Specifically, one side of the first housing 310 is open to facilitate placement or removal of the carrier board by the first transmission assembly 100. By providing the first housing 310, the carrier board in the accommodating cavity 311 is prevented from being contaminated by the external environment.

[0091] Specifically, in this embodiment, there are multiple second transport assemblies 400, each of which corresponds to each second support member 320. When a new carrier needs to be taken, the lifting assembly 200 drives the first transport assembly 100 to move upwards and downwards to correspond to a second support member 320 on which a new carrier is placed. The second transport assembly 400 transfers the new carrier from the second support member 320 to the first transport assembly 100, thereby enabling the new carrier to be taken. When a replaced carrier needs to be placed, the lifting assembly 200 drives the first transport assembly 100 to move upwards and downwards to correspond to an empty second support member 320. The first transport assembly 100 and the second transport assembly 400 work together to transfer the replaced carrier to the second support member 320.

[0092] Among them, for the convenience of management, part of the second support members 230 can be divided into a storage place for replaced carriers, and another part of the second support members 230 can be divided into a storage place for new carriers. When replacing and taking them, it is only necessary to make the lifting component 200 drive the first transmission component 100 to correspond to the corresponding storage place.

[0093] In an exemplary embodiment, a plurality of mounting members are provided on the first housing 310 , and the second support member 320 is placed on the mounting members.

[0094] Specifically, in this embodiment, the second support member 320 may be snap-connected or screw-connected to the mounting member to ensure the stability of the fixation between the second support member 320 and the first shell 310 .

[0095] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6In an optional embodiment, the second transmission assembly 400 includes a third driving member 410 and a second conveyor belt 420 , both of which are disposed on the second support member 320 , and the third driving member 410 is configured to drive the second conveyor belt 420 to rotate.

[0096] Specifically, in this embodiment, the second transmission component 400 includes a third driving member 410 and a second conveyor belt 420.
