[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of battery cell processing, and in particular to a framing machine silo that prevents frames from being placed upside down. Background Art

[0002] During the framing process of solar photovoltaic modules, as each link of the product is energy-efficient and efficient, the frames used by photovoltaic modules are designed to maximize efficiency. The current frame structures are as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the frame 100 includes a base plate 101 and long ribs 102 and short ribs 103 disposed at both ends of the base plate 101. During the framing process, this type of frame 100 needs to be positioned in the desired orientation. If the anti-reverse function is not correct, it can easily lead to component failure and increased defective products. Currently, this requires multiple manual checks of the front and back, which is a significant waste of labor. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the present application is to provide a framing machine hopper that prevents frames from being placed upside down, so as to realize intelligent recognition of the frame placement position and improve the framing efficiency.

[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solutions adopted are as follows:

[0005] A framing machine silo for preventing a frame from being placed upside down comprises a silo, a material baffle plate, a material baffle cylinder, a photoelectric sensor assembly and a controller; wherein the material baffle cylinder is connected to the material baffle plate, and the material baffle plate opens or closes the material outlet of the silo under the action of the material baffle cylinder; the photoelectric sensor assembly is arranged on the outside of the silo and is used to detect the placement position of the frame in the silo; the signal output end of the photoelectric sensor assembly is connected to the signal input end of the controller, and the signal output end of the controller is connected to the signal input end of the material baffle cylinder.

[0006] Preferably, in the above-mentioned framing machine silo for preventing the frame from being placed upside down, the photoelectric sensor component is an integrated transceiver photoelectric sensor.

[0007] Preferably, in the above-mentioned framing machine silo for preventing the frame from being placed upside down, the photoelectric sensing component includes a light emitter and a light receiver; wherein, the light emitter is arranged on the left side of the outside of the silo, and the light receiver is arranged on the right side of the outside of the silo, and the light emitter is used to emit detection light, and the detection light is partially transmitted out of the silo and received by the light receiver to obtain a light intensity signal, and the signal output end of the light receiver is connected to the signal input end of the controller, and the controller is used to control the operation of the material blocking cylinder according to the light intensity signal.

[0008] Preferably, the above-mentioned framing machine silo for preventing the frame from being placed upside down further includes a button switch, which is arranged at the upper end of the baffle plate.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this application are:

[0012] This application adds a photoelectric sensor component. When the frame is placed in the silo, the long and short sidewalls of the frame will cause the photoelectric signals of the photoelectric sensor component to be different. Therefore, the controller can output the signal to the material blocking cylinder to descend after judging that the frame is correctly placed based on the photoelectric signal of the photoelectric sensor component. If it is detected that the frame is not placed correctly, the material blocking cylinder will not receive the descending signal, and the frame will stagnate in the silo. At this time, the staff needs to adjust the frame correctly and start it again. This can avoid many problems such as abnormal glue nozzle and defective parts caused by the frame being placed upside down, and at the same time improve the equipment opening rate.

[0030] The following describes the embodiments of the present application through specific examples. Those skilled in the art can easily understand the other advantages and effects of the present application from the content disclosed in this specification. The present application can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments. The details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present application. It should be noted that the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other unless they conflict.

[0031] The specific implementation of the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.

[0032] The embodiment of the present application provides a frame loader hopper that prevents the frame from being placed upside down. Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the framing machine hopper for preventing the frame from being placed upside down includes a hopper 200, a baffle plate 300, a baffle cylinder 400, a photoelectric sensor component 500 and a controller 600; wherein, the baffle cylinder 400 is connected to the baffle plate 300, and the baffle plate 300 opens or closes the discharge port 201 of the hopper 200 under the action of the baffle cylinder 400, and the photoelectric sensor component 500 is arranged on the outside of the hopper 200, and is used to detect the placement position of the frame 100 in the hopper 200, and the signal output end of the photoelectric sensor component 500 is connected to the signal input end of the controller 600, and the signal output end of the controller 600 is connected to the signal input end of the baffle cylinder 400.

[0033] In this embodiment, the photoelectric sensor assembly 500 is disposed outside the silo 200 so as not to interfere with the movement of the frame 100 within the silo 200. The photoelectric sensor assembly 500 can be mounted using a bracket or directly embedded in the silo 200. The mounting position of the photoelectric sensor assembly 500 is determined based on the position of the frame 100 when blocked by the material retaining plate 200 within the silo 200. For example, taking a transceiver-integrated photoelectric sensor as the photoelectric sensor assembly 500, the correct placement of the frame 100 is with its short retaining edge 103 facing downward. The light emitting device and the light receiving device of the photoelectric sensor component 500 are installed together. The detection light 503 emitted by the light emitting device should be able to pass through the long rib 102 when the frame 100 is incorrectly placed and the detection light 503 should not be blocked by the short rib 103 when the frame 100 is correctly placed. In this way, when the frame 100 is incorrectly placed, compared with when it is correctly placed, the detection light 503 is blocked by the long rib 102, so the refracted or diffusely reflected light signal is stronger, so the light intensity signal obtained by the light receiving device is stronger. Therefore, the controller 600 can be based on the light intensity signal obtained by the photoelectric sensor component 500, based on the first set threshold value (the first set threshold value can be set to a value between value a and value b, where value a and value b are the light intensity signals detected by the photoelectric sensor component 500 when the frame 100 is correctly placed and incorrectly placed, respectively), as shown in FIG. Figure 3 In the state shown, if the light intensity signal is greater than the first set threshold, it indicates that the frame is placed upside down and the blocking cylinder 400 is not activated. If the light intensity signal is lower than the first set threshold, it indicates that the frame is placed correctly and the blocking cylinder 400 is activated. If the staff notices that the blocking cylinder 400 has not been working for a certain period of time, they can adjust the placement of the frame 100 to ensure that it is placed correctly, and the blocking cylinder 400 can then be activated normally. This framing machine hopper that prevents the frame from being placed upside down can prevent the frame 100 from being framed when it is placed upside down, effectively solving problems such as abnormal glue nozzles and defective parts, while also improving the equipment's operating rate.

[0034] In some embodiments, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the photoelectric sensing component 500 includes a light emitter 501 and a light receiver 502; wherein, the light emitter 501 is arranged on the left side of the outside of the silo 200, and the light receiver 502 is arranged on the right side of the outside of the silo 200, and the light emitter 501 is used to emit detection light 503, and the detection light 503 is partially transmitted out of the silo 200 and is received by the light receiver 502 to obtain a light intensity signal, and the signal output end of the light receiver 502 is connected to the signal input end of the controller 600, and the controller 600 is used to control the operation of the material blocking cylinder 400 according to the light intensity signal.

[0035] In this embodiment, the photoelectric sensing component 500 arranges the light emitter 501 and the light receiver 502 separately, wherein when the frame 100 is correctly placed, the detection light 503 is not blocked by the short rib 103, and when the frame 100 is incorrectly placed, the detection light 503 is blocked by the long rib 102. Therefore, when the frame 100 is correctly placed, the light receiver 502 receives more detection light 503, and thus the light intensity signal will be stronger. When it is incorrectly placed, since the detection light 503 will be blocked, the light receiver 502 receives less detection light 503, and thus the light intensity signal will be weaker. Based on this principle, a second set threshold value can be set. For example, the second set threshold value can be a value between a value c and a value d, wherein the values ​​c and d are the light intensity signal values ​​obtained by the light receiver 502 when the frame 100 is incorrectly placed and correctly placed, respectively. The controller 600 compares the light intensity signal obtained by the optical receiver in real time with the second set threshold. When the light intensity signal obtained by the optical receiver 502 is less than the second set threshold, it means that the frame 100 is placed incorrectly (upside down), and the blocking cylinder 400 is not started; when the light intensity signal obtained by the optical receiver 502 is less than the second set threshold, it means that the frame 100 is placed correctly (upright), and the blocking cylinder 400 is started.

[0036] In some embodiments, as Figure 6 As shown, the framing machine hopper for preventing the frame from being placed upside down also includes a button switch 700, which is arranged at the upper end of the baffle plate 300. When the button switch 700 is pressed by the frame 100 in the hopper 200, the controller 600 and the photoelectric sensor component 500 are powered on and start working.

[0037] In this embodiment, in order to save energy, a button switch 700 is added. The button switch 700 can be used to determine whether there is a frame 100 to be unloaded in the hopper 200. When there is a frame 100, Figure 2As shown, the frame 100 will press the button switch 700 under the action of gravity to activate the button switch 700. Only when the button switch 700 is activated, the controller 600 and the photoelectric sensor component 500 will be activated, so that the controller 600 and the photoelectric sensor component 500 will only start working when there is a frame 100 that needs to unload materials, thereby reducing power consumption. It should be noted that when the baffle plate 300 closes the discharge port 201 of the silo 200, it does not need to completely close the discharge port 201. Usually, there is a certain gap between it and the discharge port 201. The gap is used to avoid friction between the baffle plate 300 and the discharge port 201. Therefore, the button switch 700 can be installed in a manner of partially embedding the baffle plate 300. At the same time, when the baffle plate 300 is active, the button switch 700 in the closed state will not contact the silo 200.

[0038] In some embodiments, a specific power supply method is provided for the controller 600 and the photoelectric sensor assembly 500. Figure 7 As shown, the frame loader hopper for preventing the frame from being placed upside down also includes a power supply 800; the positive pole of the power supply 800 is connected to the button switch 700, the controller 600, the photoelectric sensor component 500 and the negative pole of the power supply 800 in sequence through a wire.

[0039] In this embodiment, the button switch 700, the controller 600, and the photoelectric sensor assembly 500 are connected in parallel. Only when the button switch 700 is pressed and closed, the controller 600 and the photoelectric sensor assembly 500 are powered and start working. Compared with the long-term working mode of the controller 600 and the photoelectric sensor assembly 500, this power supply method can reduce the power consumption of the controller 600 and the photoelectric sensor assembly 500.

[0040] In some embodiments, different from Figure 7 ,like Figure 8 As shown, the controller 600 and the photoelectric sensor assembly 500 are connected in parallel and then connected in series with the button switch 700 and the power supply 800.

[0041] In this embodiment, the controller 600 and the photoelectric sensor assembly 500 are powered by the same power supply 800, but the two are connected in parallel to avoid the impact of a short circuit in either the controller 600 or the photoelectric sensor assembly 500 on the controller 600 or the photoelectric sensor assembly 500.

[0042] The above implementation modes are only used to illustrate the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field may make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Therefore, all equivalent technical solutions also fall within the scope of the present application, and the scope of patent protection of the present application shall be defined by the claims.
