[0030] As known from the background art, after the current photovoltaic module and the laminating tool are laminated by the laminating machine, they will be cooled in the cooling section. The cooled photovoltaic module and the laminating tool are conveyed by the conveying line to the manual laminating tool dismounting station. After receiving a signal, the conveying line stops moving. When the photovoltaic module and the laminating tool reach the set position, the laminating tool is manually dismounted from the photovoltaic module. Then, the dismounted laminating tool is placed on the transfer trolley. After a certain number of laminating tools are placed on the transfer trolley, the transfer trolley is manually pushed to the laminating tool loading station, so as to realize the circulation of the laminating tool and successfully complete the subsequent laminating process.

[0031] This manual dismounting of the laminating tool from the photovoltaic module has low automation and low reliability, and is affected by personnel conditions. The manual handling of the dismounted laminating tool has the risk of falling and collision, which will adversely affect the structure and service life of the laminating tool, thereby increasing the operating cost.

[0032] The present disclosure provides a separation device and a photovoltaic module manufacturing system. The separation device is arranged at a separation station. The separation device comprises a limiting device and a jacking device. After a workpiece to be separated, which is composed of a photovoltaic module and a module tool, reaches the separation station, the photovoltaic module is first fixed and limited by the limiting device, and then the module tool on the photovoltaic module is jacked up by the jacking device, so that the photovoltaic module and the module tool are separated. Thus, the automatic separation of the module tool on the photovoltaic module is realized. The separation device has high automation, can automatically separate the module tool on the photovoltaic module, and can reduce the number of manual operations after one-time investment, effectively reduce the damage rate of the module tool and other safety risks of manual operation, reduce the manufacturing cost in the long run, and improve the production efficiency.

However, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, many technical details are presented in order to enable the reader to better understand the present disclosure. However, the technical solutions claimed by the present disclosure can be implemented even without these technical details and based on various changes and modifications of the following embodiments.

[0042] The present disclosure provides a separation device, Figures 1 to 6 A preferred embodiment of the separation device provided by the present disclosure is shown.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments, the separating device 100 is used to separate a workpiece 200 to be separated, the workpiece 200 to be separated comprising a photovoltaic assembly 210 and an assembly tool 220 arranged on the photovoltaic assembly 210, the separating device 100 comprising a limiting device 1 and a jacking device 2, the limiting device 1 being arranged at a separating station for carrying the workpiece 200 to be separated, the limiting device 1 being used to limit the photovoltaic assembly 210 in the up-down direction; the jacking device 2 being arranged at the separating station, the jacking device 2 comprising a jacking driving mechanism 21 and a jacking piece 22, the jacking driving mechanism 21 being power-coupled with the jacking piece 22 to drive the jacking piece 22 to move up and down by the jacking driving mechanism 21; when the jacking piece 22 is located at a lower standby position, the jacking piece 22 is located at the lower side of the workpiece 200 to be separated; when the jacking piece 22 is located at a jacking position, the jacking piece 22 abuts against the lower side of the assembly tool 220, and the upper surface of the jacking piece 22 is located at the upper side of the photovoltaic assembly 210, so as to make the assembly tool 220 to be separated from the photovoltaic assembly 210 upward.

[0044] Specifically, the workpiece 200 to be separated comprises the photovoltaic assembly 210 and the assembly tool 220, and the specific type of the photovoltaic assembly 210 can be set according to actual conditions, for example, the photovoltaic assembly 210 can be a photovoltaic double-glass assembly, etc. The assembly tool 220 is any kind of tool used in the manufacturing process of the photovoltaic assembly 210, for example, the assembly tool 220 can be a laminating tool, etc., which will be introduced below taking the assembly tool 220 as a laminating tool as an example. After the photovoltaic assembly 210 and the assembly tool 220 pass through the laminating machine, the combined photovoltaic assembly 210 and the assembly tool 220 (i.e. the workpiece 200 to be separated) will be transferred to the separating station. The separating station is usually provided with a support frame or other support structure to carry the workpiece 200 to be separated, so that the workpiece 200 to be separated can be placed on the separating station upwardly.

[0045] The separating device 100 is arranged at a separating station. After the assembled photovoltaic module 210 and the module tool 220 are transferred to the separating station, the photovoltaic module 210 is first upwardly limited by the limiting device 1, so that the photovoltaic module 210 cannot move upwardly or the upwardly moving distance is less than a distance threshold. The distance threshold refers to the maximum height value of the photovoltaic module 210 free falling without damage. At this time, the jacking piece 22 of the jacking device 2 is located at a lower standby position, and the jacking piece 22 is located directly below the module tool 220 and does not contact the module tool 220. After the photovoltaic module 210 is upwardly limited by the limiting device 1, the jacking piece 22 located at the lower standby position is driven to move upwardly by the jacking driving mechanism 21 of the jacking device 2. In the process of upwardly moving of the jacking piece 22, the upper surface of the jacking piece 22 contacts the lower surface of the module tool 220, and the jacking piece 22 abuts against the lower side of the module tool 220. The upwardly moving jacking piece 22 drives the module tool 220 to move upwardly together, so that the module tool 220 is separated upwardly from the photovoltaic module 210. When the jacking driving mechanism 21 drives the jacking piece 22 to move upwardly to a jacking position, the module tool 220 is jacked to the upper side of the photovoltaic module 210 by the jacking piece 22, so as to realize automatic separation of the photovoltaic module 210 and the module tool 220.

[0046] The separating device 100 is arranged at a separating station. After the assembled photovoltaic module 210 and the module tool 220 are transferred to the separating station, the photovoltaic module 210 is first upwardly limited by the limiting device 1, so that the photovoltaic module 210 cannot move upwardly or the upwardly moving distance is less than a distance threshold. The distance threshold refers to the maximum height value of the photovoltaic module 210 free falling without damage. At this time, the jacking piece 22 of the jacking device 2 is located at a lower standby position, and the jacking piece 22 is located directly below the module tool 220 and does not contact the module tool 220. After the photovoltaic module 210 is upwardly limited by the limiting device 1, the jacking piece 22 located at the lower standby position is driven to move upwardly by the jacking driving mechanism 21 of the jacking device 2. In the process of upwardly moving of the jacking piece 22, the upper surface of the jacking piece 22 contacts the lower surface of the module tool 220, and the jacking piece 22 abuts against the lower side of the module tool 220. The upwardly moving jacking piece 22 drives the module tool 220 to move upwardly together, so that the module tool 220 is separated upwardly from the photovoltaic module 210. When the jacking driving mechanism 21 drives the jacking piece 22 to move upwardly to a jacking position, the module tool 220 is jacked to the upper side of the photovoltaic module 210 by the jacking piece 22, so as to realize automatic separation of the photovoltaic module 210 and the module tool 220.

[0047] The embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0048] The photovoltaic module 210 is upwardly limited by the limiting device 1, so as to prevent the photovoltaic module 210 from being lifted by the assembly tool 220 in the process of lifting the assembly tool 220 by the jacking device 2. The limiting device 1 can be arranged in various manners. For example, the limiting device 1 can be a fixed limiting block. The fixed limiting block is fixedly arranged at the separating station. When the assembled photovoltaic module 210 and the assembly tool 220 flow to the separating station, the fixed limiting block is located at the upper side of the photovoltaic module 210, so as to upwardly limit the photovoltaic module 210 by the fixed limiting block. For another example, the limiting device 1 can include a movable limiting block and a driver. The driver is configured to drive the movable limiting block to move up and down. When the assembled photovoltaic module 210 and the assembly tool 220 flow to the separating station, the movable limiting block is located at the upper side of the photovoltaic module 210 and does not contact the photovoltaic module 210. At this time, the driver drives the movable limiting block to move downward, so that the movable limiting block can abut against the upper side of the photovoltaic module 210, thereby upwardly limiting the photovoltaic module 210 by the movable limiting block.

[0049] Optionally, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the limiting device 1 is a vacuum suction device 1a. The vacuum suction device 1a is located at the lower side of the photovoltaic module 210. The vacuum suction device 1a is configured to suction the lower surface of the photovoltaic module 210.

[0050] Specifically, when the assembled photovoltaic module 210 and the assembly tool 220 flow to the separating station, the vacuum suction device 1a is located at the lower side of the photovoltaic module 210. At this time, the vacuum suction device 1a is operated, so that the vacuum suction device 1a generates a downward suction force on the photovoltaic module 210, thereby upwardly limiting the photovoltaic module 210. In this way, the vacuum suction device 1a is used as the limiting device 1, so that the structure of the limiting device 1 is relatively simple. Moreover, when the assembled photovoltaic module 210 and the assembly tool 220 flow to the separating station, a gap can be reserved between the vacuum suction device 1a and the photovoltaic module 210 in the up-down direction. In this way, the vacuum suction device 1a can upwardly limit the photovoltaic module 210 by the suction force without contacting the photovoltaic module 210, thereby avoiding the problem that the photovoltaic module 210 is damaged due to the contact between the limiting device 1 and the photovoltaic module 210.

[0051] Further, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the limiting device 1 is a suction cup device. The suction cup device is a common vacuum suction device 1a. The limiting device 1 arranged as the suction cup device is conducive to reducing the manufacturing and later maintenance costs of the separating equipment 100.

[0052] The specific number of the limiting devices 1 can be set according to actual conditions. For example, the limiting device 1 can be provided with one, for example, the limiting device 1 is provided with one, and the one limiting device 1 is arranged along the length direction of the photovoltaic module 210.

[0053] The limiting device 1 can also be provided with multiple, optionally, please refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments, the limiting device 1 is provided with multiple along the circumference of the photovoltaic module 210.

[0054] Specifically, the limiting device 1 is provided with multiple, and when the assembled photovoltaic module 210 and the assembly tool 220 flow to the separation station, the multiple limiting devices 1 are arranged along the circumference of the photovoltaic module 210, so that the multiple limiting devices 1 can better limit the photovoltaic module 210 upward.

[0055] For example, the photovoltaic module 210 is usually square, and the length direction of the photovoltaic module 210 is defined as the transverse direction, and the width direction of the photovoltaic module 210 is defined as the longitudinal direction. The limiting device 1 is provided with eight, and the eight limiting devices 1 are arranged in two rows in the longitudinal direction, each row of limiting devices 1 includes four limiting devices 1 arranged along the transverse direction, and four of the eight limiting devices 1 are respectively adjacent to the four corners of the photovoltaic module 210.

[0056] After the photovoltaic module 210 is upwardly limited by the limiting device 1, the lifting piece 22 is driven upwardly by the lifting driving mechanism 21 to lift the assembly tool 220 on the photovoltaic module 210. The lifting driving mechanism 21 serves as the power source of the lifting piece 22, and the specific arrangement of the lifting driving mechanism 21 can be set according to actual conditions, for example, the lifting driving mechanism 21 can be a cylinder or a motor.

[0057] Similarly, the specific number of the lifting device 2 can be one, two, three, four or more. Optionally, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the lifting device 2 is provided with multiple along the circumference of the photovoltaic module 210, and the limiting device 1 is arranged inside the multiple lifting devices 2.

[0058] Specifically, the lifting device 2 is provided with multiple, and when the assembled photovoltaic module 210 and the assembly tool 220 flow to the separation station, the multiple lifting devices 2 are arranged along the circumference of the assembly tool 220, so that the multiple lifting devices 2 can better lift the assembly tool 220 on the photovoltaic module 210. Arranging the limiting device 1 in the area enclosed by the multiple lifting devices 2 is beneficial to avoid interference of the limiting device 1 with the upward and downward movement of the lifting piece 22.

[0059] The component tool 220 is shaped to match the shape of the photovoltaic component 210, and the component tool 220 is provided in a square shape with two short sides and two long sides. The photovoltaic component 210 is provided with the jacking device 2 on both sides in the lateral direction and on both sides in the longitudinal direction. Hereinafter, the jacking device 2 located on both sides in the lateral direction of the photovoltaic component 210 is defined as the first jacking device 2a, and the jacking device 2 located on both sides in the longitudinal direction of the photovoltaic component 210 is defined as the second jacking device 2b. The first jacking device 2a is used to jack the short side of the component tool 220, and the second jacking device 2b is used to jack the long side of the component tool 220. And corresponding to each short side of the component tool 220, the first jacking device 2a is usually provided with a plurality of jacking devices 2a spaced apart along the longitudinal direction, for example, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, corresponding to each short side of the component tool 220, the first jacking device 2a is provided with two jacking devices 2a spaced apart along the longitudinal direction, so that a total of four first jacking devices 2a are provided. Similarly, corresponding to each long side of the component tool 220, the second jacking device 2b is usually provided with a plurality of jacking devices 2b spaced apart along the lateral direction, for example, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, corresponding to each long side of the component tool 220, the second jacking device 2b is provided with five jacking devices 2b spaced apart along the lateral direction, so that a total of ten second jacking devices 2b are provided.

[0060] Optionally, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the upper surface of the jacking member 22 is convexly provided with an abutting boss 23; when the jacking member 22 is in the jacking position, the abutting boss 23 abuts the outer side of the component tool 220.

[0061] Specifically, in the first jacking device 2a, the upper surface of the jacking member 22 is convexly provided with an abutting boss 23 extending along the longitudinal direction. And in the second jacking device 2b, the upper surface of the jacking member 22 is convexly provided with an abutting boss 23 extending along the lateral direction. So when the component tool 220 is jacked by the first jacking device 2a and the second jacking device 2b, the abutting boss 23 of all the jacking members 22 abuts the outer side of the component tool 220, thereby limiting the component tool 220 in the circumferential direction, so as to avoid the jacked component tool 220 from falling.

[0062] Optionally, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the separating device 100 further comprises a positioning device 3 provided at the separating station, and the positioning device 3 is used to position the workpiece 200 to be separated.

[0063] Specifically, when the assembled photovoltaic module 210 and the assembly tool 220 are transferred to the separation station, the assembled photovoltaic module 210 and the assembly tool 220 can be first positioned accurately by the positioning device 3, and then the photovoltaic module 210 is upwardly limited by the limiting device 1. In this way, the accuracy of the operation of the separation equipment 100 can be improved, and the assembly tool 220 separated from the photovoltaic module 210 can be easily grabbed by a mechanical hand or other handling equipment.

[0064] The specific setting mode of the positioning device 3 can not be specially limited. Optionally, please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the positioning device 3 includes a first positioning sub-device 31 and a second positioning sub-device 32. The first positioning sub-device 31 is arranged on both sides of the workpiece 200 in the transverse direction. The first positioning sub-device 31 includes a transverse driving mechanism 311 and a transverse abutting member 312. The transverse driving mechanism 311 is power-coupled with the transverse abutting member 312, so as to drive the transverse abutting member 312 to move transversely by the transverse driving mechanism 311. When the transverse abutting member 312 is located at a transverse standby position, the transverse abutting member 312 is arranged spaced apart from the workpiece 200 in the transverse direction. When the transverse abutting member 312 is located at a transverse abutting position, the transverse abutting member 312 abuts one side of the workpiece 200 in the transverse direction. The second positioning sub-device 32 is arranged on both sides of the workpiece 200 in the longitudinal direction. The second positioning sub-device 32 includes a longitudinal driving mechanism 321 and a longitudinal abutting member 322.
