Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of solar panel assembly technology, specifically a transfer device for solar panel assembly. Background Technology

[0002] Solar panels are devices that absorb sunlight and convert solar radiation energy directly or indirectly into electrical energy through the photoelectric effect or photochemical effect. When assembling solar panels, some panels need to be installed in high positions, so a transfer device is needed to transfer the solar panels.

[0003] Existing transfer devices typically transfer solar panels by pressing suction cups onto the surface of the solar panel. However, this method of suction cups alone leaves air trapped between the suction cups and the solar panel, resulting in a weak adhesion. Consequently, during the transfer process, the solar panel may fall from a height and be damaged. Utility Model Content

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a transfer device for assembling solar panels, comprising a base, a column connected to the top of the base, an adsorption rod movably connected to one side surface of the column, a fixed suction cup connected to the bottom end of the adsorption rod near the column, and a movable suction cup movably connected to the bottom end of the adsorption rod away from the column, an air pump connected to the top of the base on one side of the column, an air pump main pipe connected to the input end of the air pump, a first tee connector connected to one end of the air pump main pipe, air pump branch pipes connected to one side surface and the top of the first tee connector, an air pump connected to the top of the adsorption rod, an air pump connected to the output end of the air pump, an air pump main pipe connected to one end of the air pump main pipe, a second tee connector connected to both the upper and lower ends of the second tee connector, and nozzles connected to the lower part of one side surface of both the movable suction cup and the fixed suction cup, with one end of each of the two air pump branch pipes connected to two nozzles respectively.

[0006] Preferably, the top of the base has a groove, and a motor is installed inside the groove. The motor shaft extends to the top of the base and connects to the bottom of the column.

[0007] Preferably, a first groove is formed on one side surface of the column, a hydraulic rod is installed at the top of the column, the hydraulic rod extends into the inside of the column, the hydraulic rod is connected to a slider, one end of the slider extends through the first groove to the outside of the column, and the extended end of the slider is connected to an adsorption rod.

[0008] Preferably, both sides of the inside of the column are connected to sliding rods, both of which pass through the slider, and the slider is movably sleeved on the outer surface of the two sliding rods.

[0009] Preferably, a second groove is provided at the bottom end of the suction rod on one side of the fixed suction cup, and an electric push rod is installed on the surface of the suction rod away from the column. The telescopic rod of the electric push rod extends into the inside of the suction rod, and the telescopic rod of the electric push rod is connected to a movable block. The bottom end of the movable block extends through the second groove to the bottom of the suction rod, and the extended end of the movable block is connected to the movable suction cup.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] This transfer device for solar panel assembly uses an air pump and an air inlet pump. When the solar panel needs to be adsorbed, the air inlet pump and nozzles first blow away the dust on the surface of the solar panel to prevent the dust from affecting the adsorption of the movable and fixed suction cups. Then, the movable and fixed suction cups are moved to the upper surface of the solar panel. The air pump, main air inlet pipe, and branch air inlet pipes remove the air between the movable and fixed suction cups and the solar panel, creating a vacuum state. The negative pressure generated causes the movable and fixed suction cups to adsorb the solar panel, making the adsorption of the solar panel more secure and preventing the solar panel from falling from a height during the transfer process.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, the transfer device for solar panel assembly in this embodiment includes a base 1, a column 2 connected to the top of the base 1, an adsorption rod 7 movably connected to one side of the column 2, a fixed suction cup 12 connected to the bottom end of the adsorption rod 7 near the column 2, and a movable suction cup 11 movably connected to the bottom end of the adsorption rod 7 away from the column 2. A vacuum pump 13 is connected to the top of the base 1 on one side of the column 2, a main vacuum pipe 14 is connected to the input end of the vacuum pump 13, a first tee connector 15 is connected to one end of the main vacuum pipe 14, and vacuum branch pipes 16 are connected to one side and the top of the first tee connector 15. The vacuum branch pipes 16 are retractable hoses.

The lower part of each surface is connected to a nozzle 21. One end of each of the two inflation branches 20 is connected to a nozzle 21. First, the dust on the surface of the solar panel is blown away by the inflation pump 17 and the nozzles 21 to prevent the dust on the surface of the solar panel from affecting the adsorption of the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 on the solar panel. Then, the hydraulic rod 4 drives the slider 6 to move downward, and the slider 6 drives the adsorption rod 7 to move downward, moving the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 to the upper surface of the solar panel. The air is removed between the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 and the solar panel by the air pump 13, the main air extraction pipe 14 and the air extraction branch pipe 16, so that a vacuum state is formed between the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 and the solar panel. The negative pressure generated makes the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 adsorb the solar panel, so that the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 adsorb the solar panel more firmly and prevent the solar panel from falling from a height during transportation.

[0022] The base 1 has a groove 22 at its top, and a motor 23 is installed inside the groove 22. The shaft of the motor 23 extends to the top of the base 1 and connects to the bottom of the column 2. The motor 23 drives the column 2 to rotate, and the column 2 drives the adsorption rod 7 and the solar panel to rotate together. A first groove 3 is opened on one side surface of the column 2. A hydraulic rod 4 is installed at the top of the column 2. The extension rod of the hydraulic rod 4 extends into the column 2 and is connected to a slider 6. One end of the slider 6 passes through the first groove 3 and extends to the outside of the column 2. The extended end of the slider 6 is connected to the adsorption rod 7. The hydraulic rod 4 drives the slider 6 to move up and down, and the slider 6 drives the adsorption rod 7 to move up and down. Slide rods 5 are connected to both sides inside the column 2. Both slide rods 5 pass through the slider 6, and the slider 6 is movably sleeved on the outer surface of the two slide rods 5. The slider 6 moves along the... Two sliding rods 5 move up and down, thereby improving the stability of the slider 6's movement; a second groove 8 is provided at the bottom of the suction rod 7 on one side of the fixed suction cup 12; an electric push rod 9 is installed on the surface of the suction rod 7 away from the column 2; the telescopic rod of the electric push rod 9 extends into the suction rod 7; the telescopic rod of the electric push rod 9 is connected to a movable block 10; the bottom end of the movable block 10 extends through the second groove 8 to the bottom of the suction rod 7; the extended end of the movable block 10 is connected to the movable suction cup 11; the electric push rod 9 drives the movable block 10 to move left and right; the movable block 10 drives the movable suction cup 11 to move left and right, so that the distance between the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 is less than the length of the solar panel; an exhaust pipe 24 is connected to one side of the top of both the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12; an electromagnetic valve 25 is installed inside the exhaust pipe 24.

[0023] The usage method of this embodiment is as follows: All electrical components mentioned in this application are connected to an external power source and equipped with corresponding controllers. First, the distance between the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 is adjusted according to the size of the solar panel. The electric push rod 9 drives the movable block 10 to move left and right, which in turn drives the movable suction cup 11 to move left and right, ensuring that the distance between the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 is less than the length of the solar panel. When adsorbing the solar panel, the air pump 17 and nozzle 21 are used to blow away dust from the surface of the solar panel to prevent dust from affecting the adsorption of the solar panel by the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12. Then, the hydraulic rod 4 drives the slider 6 downwards, which in turn drives the adsorption rod 7 downwards, moving the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 onto the solar panel. On the upper surface, the air between the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 and the solar panel is removed by the air pump 13, the main suction pipe 14 and the branch suction pipe 16, creating a vacuum between the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 and the solar panel. The negative pressure generated causes the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 to adhere to the solar panel, making the adhesion more secure and preventing the solar panel from falling from a height during transportation. After the solar panel is transported to the designated position, the solenoid valve 25 is opened to allow outside air to enter between the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 and the solar panel, thereby eliminating the negative pressure between the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 and the solar panel, and causing the movable suction cup 11 and the fixed suction cup 12 to detach from the solar panel, thus facilitating the unloading of the solar panel.

[0024] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model.
