Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic module technology, and in particular to an integrated frame assembly machine without an A-side frame. Background Technology

[0002] Photovoltaic modules are typically assembled using framing machines. Conventional framing machines receive modules with the back facing upwards (the side facing the light source is the front, and the side where the junction box is installed is the back). However, for A-side photovoltaic modules, due to the frame mounting method, the photovoltaic panels must be received with the modules facing upwards. Before framing, the frame must be straight; otherwise, the frame cannot properly engage with the edge of the photovoltaic panel. However, the downward-facing side will have an uneven structure, making it impossible to use a simple flat support structure to create a flat surface for the photovoltaic panel. Conventional framing machines cannot complete the framing process for this type of photovoltaic module.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the structure of the framing machine to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide an integrated frame assembly machine without an A-side frame, which can perform online leveling of photovoltaic panels without an A-side frame, thereby adapting to their framing needs.

[0005] This utility model achieves the above-mentioned objective through the following technical solution: a frame-assembly integrated machine without an A-side frame, comprising two synchronous belt lines, a component leveling unit, four frame assembly mechanisms, and a swing frame unit; the synchronous belt lines pass through the middle of the component leveling unit along a first horizontal direction and are driven to rise and fall by a lifting mechanism; the four frame assembly mechanisms are respectively arranged on the four sides of the component leveling unit; the swing frame unit is located above the component leveling unit; the component leveling unit includes a synchronous lifter, a support driven to rise and fall by the synchronous lifter, and multiple support frames independently arranged on the support; each support frame is embedded with several suction cups and a cylinder that drives the suction cups to rise and fall relative to the support frame; the upper surfaces of all support frames are located in the same horizontal plane; the positions of the support frames are staggered from the positions of the synchronous belt lines.

[0006] Specifically, the bracket is provided with several slide rails along the horizontal direction, and the support frame slides along the slide rails and can be selectively fixed on the slide rails.

[0007] Specifically, the bracket is also equipped with several casters, the highest point of which is flush with the upper surface of the support frame, and the casters are located in the area between two synchronous belt lines.

[0008] Specifically, the four frame assembly mechanisms include two long-side frame assembly mechanisms that move along the second horizontal direction and two short-side frame assembly mechanisms that move along the first horizontal direction. Each frame assembly mechanism is provided with multiple frame straightening components and two centering components. The first horizontal direction is perpendicular to the second horizontal direction.

[0009] Furthermore, the frame unit includes a translation module, a lifting module, a long side placement mechanism, and a short side placement mechanism. The long side placement mechanism simultaneously adjusts the position of the two long frames along the second horizontal direction, and the short side placement mechanism simultaneously adjusts the position of the two short frames along the first horizontal direction. The lifting module simultaneously adjusts the lifting of the long side placement mechanism and the short side placement mechanism. The translation module drives the lifting module to move along the second horizontal direction. The two long frames and the two short frames are assembled to form a rectangular frame surrounding the photovoltaic panel without side A.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model's technical solution are:

[0011] This frameless assembly machine uses cylinders to drive corresponding suction cups to rise and adhere to the flat area of ​​the lower surface of the frameless photovoltaic panel. After the suction cups adhere to the flat area of ​​the frameless photovoltaic panel, they are pulled down, and the adhered surface is forced to adhere to the upper surface of the support frame, thus achieving leveling and keeping the entire frameless photovoltaic panel horizontal. After the framing mechanism assembles the two long frames and two short frames into a rectangular frame, the synchronous lifter drives the support to rise, allowing the frameless photovoltaic panel to be placed inside the rectangular frame, thus achieving a good assembly relationship.

[0026] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0027] Example:

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention discloses a frame-assembly integrated machine 1 without an A-side frame, comprising two synchronous belt lines 11, a component leveling unit 12, four frame assembly mechanisms, and a swing frame unit 14. The synchronous belt lines 11 pass through the middle of the component leveling unit 12 along a first horizontal direction and are driven to rise and fall by a lifting mechanism 111. The four frame assembly mechanisms are respectively arranged on the four sides of the component leveling unit 12, and the swing frame unit 14 is located above the component leveling unit 12. The component leveling unit 12 includes a synchronous lifter 121, a support 122 driven to rise and fall by the synchronous lifter 121, and multiple support frames 123 independently arranged on the support 122. Each support frame 123 is embedded with several suction cups 124 and a cylinder 125 that drives the suction cups 124 to rise and fall relative to the support frame 123. The upper surfaces of all support frames 123 are located in the same horizontal plane, and the positions of the support frames 123 are staggered from the positions of the synchronous belt lines 11.

[0029] Two synchronous belt conveyors 11 are used to transport the A-side photovoltaic panels into the equipment. During this transport process, the transport surface of the synchronous belt conveyor 11 is higher than the upper surface of the support frame 123. When the lifting mechanism 111 drives the synchronous belt conveyor 11 to descend, the A-side photovoltaic panels will fall onto the upper surface of the support frame 123 and then leave the synchronous belt conveyor 11. Initially, the lower surface of the A-side photovoltaic panels, except for the protruding parts, cannot maintain a high degree of flatness. Each cylinder 125 will drive the corresponding suction cup 124 to rise and stick to the flat part of the lower surface of the A-side photovoltaic panels. After the suction cup 124 uses suction force to pick up the flat part of the A-side photovoltaic panels, it is pulled down, and the sucked surface will be forced to stick to the upper surface of the support frame 123, thereby achieving leveling. Because there are many suction cups 124, the entire A-side-less photovoltaic panel will remain horizontal. After the frame assembly mechanism assembles the two long side frames 2 and the two short side frames 3 into a rectangular frame, the synchronous lifter 121 drives the bracket 122 to rise, so that the A-side-less photovoltaic panel is placed inside the rectangular frame, thereby achieving a good assembly relationship.

[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, a number of slide rails 126 are arranged on the bracket 122 in the horizontal direction, and the support frame 123 slides along the slide rails 126 and is selectively fixed on the slide rails 126.

[0031] The frameless assembly machine 1 often needs to be designed for photovoltaic panels of different sizes, whose protrusions on the lower surface may vary. The support frame 123 can only contact the flat bottom of the photovoltaic panel. Therefore, the support frame 123 needs to be adjusted to a suitable horizontal position by means of the slide rail 126 to avoid the protrusions of the photovoltaic panel while keeping the upper surface height constant, so as to meet the leveling needs of various models.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, the bracket 122 is also equipped with several casters 127. The highest point of the casters 127 is flush with the upper surface of the support frame 123. The casters 127 are located in the area between the two synchronous belt lines 11.

[0033] If the area of ​​the photovoltaic panel without side A is relatively large, the section between the two synchronous belt lines 11 may deform downwards due to local gravity. Therefore, these areas also need to be supported by a support structure. The caster wheel 127 not only facilitates the horizontal sliding adjustment of the photovoltaic panel without side A, but also has a very small force application point, making it suitable for situations where the support space is limited and the support frame 123 cannot be used for support.

[0034] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the four frame assembly mechanisms include two long-side frame assembly mechanisms 13a that move along the second horizontal direction and two short-side frame assembly mechanisms 13b that move along the first horizontal direction. Each frame assembly mechanism is provided with multiple frame straightening components 131 and two centering components 132. The first horizontal direction is perpendicular to the second horizontal direction.

[0035] The long-side frame assembly mechanism 13a and the short-side frame assembly mechanism 13b operate on the same principle, the only difference being that they are designed for the long side frame 2 and the short side frame 3, respectively. The centering component 132 is a horizontally driven pusher by a cylinder. When the A-side photovoltaic panel is delivered above the module leveling unit 12, it is not centered. After the A-side photovoltaic panel is in place and before the frame assembly, the centering component 132 pushes inward, with both centering components 132 on each side extending by the same amount, thus centering the A-side photovoltaic panel. Then, the centering component 132 returns to its original position. During storage, the long side frame 2 and the short side frame 3 may be bent and unable to maintain a straight structure. This would result in a less than perfect fit at the edge of the A-side photovoltaic panel. Therefore, before framing, the frame straightening component 131 needs to be used to straighten the long side frame 2 and the short side frame 3 to ensure a good appearance for the photovoltaic module.

[0036] like Figure 6 As shown, the frame unit 14 includes a translation module 141, a lifting module 142, a long side placement mechanism 143, and a short side placement mechanism 144. The long side placement mechanism 143 simultaneously adjusts the position of the two long frames 2 along the second horizontal direction, and the short side placement mechanism 144 simultaneously adjusts the position of the two short frames along the first horizontal direction. The lifting module 142 simultaneously adjusts the lifting of the long side placement mechanism 143 and the short side placement mechanism 144. The translation module 141 drives the lifting module 142 to move along the second horizontal direction. The two long frames 2 and the two short frames 3 are assembled to form a rectangular frame surrounding the photovoltaic panel without side A.

[0037] The frame-sliding unit 14 is used to translate and feed in the long frame 2 and the short frame 3 vertically, thereby transferring them to the long side frame assembly mechanism 13a and the short side frame assembly mechanism 13b to complete the frame assembly operation.

[0038] The working process of this equipment is as follows:

[0039] 1. With the support frame 122 in a low position, the two synchronous belts 11 transport the photovoltaic panel without A-side to the top of the module leveling unit 12. The lifting mechanism 111 drives the synchronous belt 11 to descend, so that the photovoltaic panel without A-side falls onto the support frame 123. Then, the centering components 132 around the perimeter extend, so that the photovoltaic panel without A-side stops at the appropriate frame position. The centering components 132 retract, and then the synchronous lifter 121 drives the support frame 122 to rise. The support frame 123 and the casters 127 lift the photovoltaic panel without A-side, and then the suction cup 124 is used to straighten the photovoltaic panel without A-side.

[0040] 2. While performing the above actions, the frame-swinging unit 14 uses the long-side-swinging mechanism 143 and the short-side-swinging mechanism 144 to clamp the long frame 2 and the short frame 3 from outside the equipment. The translation module 141 moves the long frame 2 and the short frame 3 to the top of the component leveling unit 12. Then, the long-side-swinging mechanism 143 adjusts the position of the long frame 2 to adapt to the long-side frame assembly mechanism 13a, and the short-side-swinging mechanism 144 adjusts the position of the short frame 3 to adapt to the short-side frame assembly mechanism 13b. The lifting module 142 drives the long-side-swinging mechanism 143 and the short-side-swinging mechanism 144 to fall, transferring the long frame 2 to the long-side frame assembly mechanism 13a and the short frame 3 to the short-side-swinging mechanism 144. The long-side-swinging mechanism 143 and the short-side-swinging mechanism 144 each use the frame straightening component 131 to straighten the long frame 2 and the short frame 3.

[0041] 3. Both pairs of long side frame assembly mechanisms 13a and two pairs of short side frame assembly mechanisms 13b are translated toward the module leveling unit 12, thereby assembling the two pairs of long side frames 2 and the two pairs of short side frames 3 into a rectangular frame. Then, the synchronous lifter 121 drives the bracket 122 to descend slightly, and the edge of the photovoltaic panel without A side is inserted into the rectangular frame, completing the assembly of the photovoltaic module without A side.

[0042] 4. The long side frame assembly mechanism 13a and the short side frame assembly mechanism 13b are reset, the suction cup 124 releases its suction force, and the synchronous belt 11 rises to remove the photovoltaic module without side A from the equipment.

[0043] The above descriptions are merely some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, various modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the inventive concept of this utility model, and all such modifications and improvements fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
