Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of photovoltaic module production, in particular to a photovoltaic module production equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the production process of photovoltaic modules, a predetermined number of battery strings are first welded into a battery string group through busbars, and then the battery string group is sealed between a glass back plate and a cover plate. In order to facilitate users to identify the model and brand of the photovoltaic module, a label with information of the photovoltaic module is generally pasted on the side of the busbar close to the glass back plate, so that users can quickly view the information of the photovoltaic module through the glass back plate.

[0003] At present, the label is pasted on the busbar by a labeling mechanism. The existing labeling mechanism is integrated with a label printer, which results in a large floor area of the labeling mechanism, and therefore a separate labeling station needs to be set up to implement the labeling operation. The conveying line first conveys the stacked battery string group and the glass back plate to the labeling station, then the handling mechanism lifts the battery string group from the glass back plate, and then the labeling mechanism pastes the label on the lower surface of the busbar. Finally, the handling mechanism places the battery string group back on the glass back plate. That is, the battery string group needs to be lifted and lowered from the glass back plate once in the labeling process, thereby slowing down the working rhythm and reducing the production efficiency of the photovoltaic module, and increasing the risk of the battery string group being scratched. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0004] In view of the above technical problems, the present application provides a labeling mechanism, and the detailed technical solutions are as follows:

[0005] A photovoltaic module production equipment includes a conveying mechanism, a handling mechanism, a printing mechanism and a labeling mechanism, wherein:

[0006] The conveying mechanism is configured to receive a back plate and convey the back plate to an assembly station;

[0007] The handling mechanism is configured to handle the battery string group to above the assembly station;

[0008] The printing mechanism is arranged at the side of the assembly station, and the printing mechanism is used for printing labels;

[0009] The labeling mechanism is configured to pick up the labels from the printing mechanism and paste the labels on the busbars on the lower surface of the battery string group handled to above the assembly station;

[0010] The handling mechanism is further configured to place the battery string group with completed label pasting on the back plate;

[0011] The conveying mechanism is further configured to convey the back plate and the battery string group to a subsequent station.

[0012] The application provides a photovoltaic module production device, a labeling mechanism and a printer are independently arranged, and both are arranged close to an assembling station. When a conveying mechanism conveys a back plate to the assembling station and a carrying mechanism carries a battery string group above the back plate, the labeling mechanism can pick up a label from the printer and attach the label to a busbar on the lower surface of the battery string group, and then the carrying mechanism stacks the battery string group on the back plate.

[0013] It can be seen that the labeling action is completed synchronously in the process of stacking the battery string group on the back plate in the photovoltaic module production device, so that an additional labeling station does not need to be arranged, and the battery string group does not need to be additionally lifted and lowered, thereby saving the equipment floor space, accelerating the work rhythm, improving the production efficiency of the photovoltaic module, and reducing the risk of the battery string group being scratched.

[0016] In some embodiments, the first lifting part and the second lifting part are configured to drive the lifting frame to rise and fall between a first height and a second height, wherein the first height is higher than the second height; when the lifting frame rises to the first height, the conveying mechanism receives the back plate and conveys the back plate to the assembling station, the labeling mechanism sucks the label from the printer and attaches the label to the busbar on the lower surface of the battery string group, and the carrying mechanism places the battery string group on which the label is attached on the back plate; when the lifting frame falls to the second height, the conveying mechanism conveys the back plate and the battery string group to a subsequent station.

[0017] By driving the lifting frame to rise and fall between the first height and the second height. When the lifting frame rises to the first height, the gap between the lifting frame and the back plate is small, so that the back plate can be smoothly placed on the lifting frame. In addition, the height difference between the labeling mechanism and the battery string group is small, so that the labeling mechanism can smoothly attach the label to the busbar on the lower surface of the battery string group. After the carrying mechanism places the battery string group on which the label is attached on the back plate, the conveying mechanism falls to the original position, so as to convey the back plate and the battery string group to the subsequent station.

[0026] In some embodiments, the swing arm assembly further comprises a second driving part and a second swing arm, wherein: a first end of the second swing arm is rotationally connected to the second end of the first swing arm and is in transmission connection with the second driving part arranged on the first swing arm, the second driving part is configured to drive the second swing arm to rotate relative to the second end of the first swing arm; and the suction block is connected to the second end of the second swing arm.

[0048] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the present application will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0049] As shown in Figure 1 The photovoltaic assembly production equipment in the embodiment of the present application comprises a labeling mechanism 10, a conveying mechanism 20, a carrying mechanism (not shown in the figure) and a printing mechanism 30, wherein:

[0050] The conveying mechanism 20 is configured to receive the backboard 100 and convey the backboard 100 to an assembly station.

[0051] The carrying mechanism is configured to carry the battery string group 200 above the assembly station.

[0052] The printing mechanism 30 is arranged at the side of the assembly station, and the printing mechanism 30 is used for printing labels.

[0053] The labeling mechanism 10 is configured to pick up the labels from the printing mechanism 30 and attach the labels to the busbar on the lower surface of the battery string group 200 carried above the assembly station.

[0054] The carrying mechanism is further configured to place the battery string group 200 with the completed label covering onto the back plate 100 to complete the assembly of the battery string group 200 and the back plate 100.

[0055] The conveying mechanism is further configured to convey the assembled back plate 100 and the battery string group 200 to a subsequent work station.

[0056] In the photovoltaic module production equipment in the embodiments of the present application, the label sticking mechanism 10 and the printing mechanism 30 are independently arranged and are both arranged close to the assembly work station. When the conveying mechanism 20 conveys the back plate 100 to the assembly work station and the carrying mechanism carries the battery string group 200 above the back plate 100, the label sticking mechanism 20 can pick up the label from the printing mechanism 30 and stick the label onto the busbar on the lower surface of the battery string group 200, and then the carrying mechanism stacks the battery string group 200 onto the back plate 100.

[0057] It can be seen that, in the process of stacking the battery string group 200 onto the back plate 100 by the photovoltaic module production equipment, the label sticking action is completed synchronously, so that an additional label sticking work station does not need to be arranged and the battery string group 200 does not need to be implemented with additional lifting and lowering operations, thereby saving the equipment floor space, accelerating the work rhythm, improving the production efficiency of the photovoltaic module, and reducing the risk of the battery string group 200 being scratched.

[0058] As shown in Figure 1 Optionally, the photovoltaic module production equipment in the embodiments of the present application further includes a first lifting part 40, a second lifting part 50 and a lifting frame 60 which are arranged at intervals, wherein the first end of the lifting frame 60 is connected to the movable part of the first lifting part 40, and the second end of the lifting frame 60 is connected to the movable part of the second lifting part 50. The conveying mechanism 20 and the label sticking mechanism 10 are both arranged on the lifting frame 60, and the first lifting part 40 and the second lifting part 50 are configured to synchronously drive the lifting frame 60 to lift and lower to drive the conveying mechanism 20 and the label sticking mechanism 30 to synchronously lift and lower.

[0059] By arranging the first lifting part 40, the second lifting part 50 and the lifting frame 60, the lifting and lowering adjustment of the conveying mechanism 20 and the label sticking mechanism 10 is realized, so that the label sticking mechanism 10 can pick up the label from the printing mechanism 30 and stick the label onto the busbar on the lower surface of the battery string group 200, and the conveying mechanism 20 can smoothly receive the back plate 100 and convey the back plate 100 to the assembly work station.

[0060] For example, the first lifting unit 40 and the second lifting unit 50 cooperate to drive the lifting frame 60 to rise and fall between a first height and a second height, wherein the first height is higher than the second height. When the lifting frame 60 rises to the first height, the conveying mechanism 20 receives the back plate 100 and transports the back plate to the assembly station. At the same time, the labeling mechanism 10 picks up a label from the printing mechanism 30 and affixes the label to the busbar on the lower surface of the battery string assembly 200. After the transport mechanism places the labeled battery string assembly 200 onto the back plate 100, the first lifting unit 40 and the second lifting unit 50 cooperate to drive the lifting frame 60 to descend to the second height, and the conveying mechanism 20 transports the back plate 100 and the battery string assembly 200 to the next processing station.

[0061] Both the first lifting section 40 and the second lifting section 50 can adopt various known lifting drive devices capable of lifting the lifting frame 60, such as a chain lifting device consisting of a hydraulic cylinder, a sprocket, and a chain.

[0062] like Figure 1 As shown, optionally, the conveying mechanism 20 includes a frame 21, a conveyor belt drive mechanism (not visible in the figure), and several (e.g.) Figure 1 The system consists of three conveyor belts 22, wherein: a frame 21 is mounted on a lifting frame 60, and several conveyor belts 22 are installed side by side on the frame 21 and are all connected to the conveyor belt drive mechanism. The several conveyor belts 22 cooperate with the back plate 100 to carry the back plate 100, and the conveyor belt drive mechanism is used to drive the several conveyor belts 22 to synchronously convey the back plate 100.

[0063] Several conveyor belts 22, driven by the conveyor belt drive mechanism, cooperate to carry and transport the back plate 100, thereby ensuring the stability of the carrying and transport of the back plate 100.

[0064] Optionally, the photovoltaic module production equipment in this embodiment further includes a barcode scanning mechanism mounted on the lifting frame 60. The barcode scanning mechanism is used to read the backsheet information marked on the backsheet 100 and send the read backsheet information to the printing mechanism 30. In this way, the printing mechanism 30 can print the backsheet information into the label.

[0065] like Figures 2 to 3 As shown, optionally, the labeling mechanism 10 includes a moving component 1, a support frame 2, a swing arm assembly 3, and an adsorption block 4, wherein: the moving component 1 is mounted on the lifting frame 60, the support frame 2 is connected to the movable part of the moving component 1, the first end of the swing arm assembly 3 is rotatably connected to the support frame 2, and the adsorption block 4 is connected to the second end of the swing arm assembly 3.

[0066] The moving assembly 1 is used to drive the adsorption block 4 to translate between the printing mechanism 30 and the assembling station, and to drive the adsorption block 4 to lift. The swing arm assembly 3 is used to drive the adsorption block 4 to swing in the horizontal plane. The adsorption block 4 is used to pick up the label from the printing mechanism 30, and to paste the label on the busbar on the lower surface of the battery string group 200.

[0067] The optional working process of the labeling mechanism 10 is as follows:

[0068] Firstly, the moving assembly 1 drives the swing arm assembly 3 and the adsorption block 4 to move to the printing mechanism 30, so that the adsorption block 4 can pick up the printed label from the printing mechanism 30.

[0069] Subsequently, the moving assembly 1 drives the swing arm assembly 3 and the adsorption block 4 to move away from the printing mechanism 30 until the adsorption block 4 moves to the assembling station.

[0070] Then, the swing arm assembly 3 drives the adsorption block 4 to rotate horizontally towards the busbar to be labeled until the adsorption block 4 rotates to the position directly below the busbar.

[0071] Finally, the moving assembly 1 drives the swing arm assembly 3 and the adsorption block 4 to rise, so that the adsorption block 4 pastes the label on the busbar.

[0072] As can be seen, through the cooperation of the moving assembly 1 and the swing arm assembly 3, the position of the adsorption block 4 in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction can be flexibly adjusted, so that the adsorption block 4 can successfully pick up the label from the printing mechanism 30, and paste the label on the busbar on the lower surface of the battery string group 200.

[0073] As shown in Figures 2 to 3 Optionally, the swing arm assembly 3 comprises a first driving part 31 and a first swing arm 32, wherein the first end of the first swing arm 32 is rotationally connected to the carrier frame 2 and is in transmission connection with the first driving part 31 arranged on the carrier frame 2, and the first driving part 31 is used to drive the first swing arm 32 to rotate horizontally relative to the carrier frame 2. The adsorption block 4 is connected with the second end of the first swing arm 32.

[0074] After the adsorption block 4 picks up the label from the printing mechanism 30 and translates to the assembling station under the driving of the moving assembly 1, the first driving part 31 drives the first swing arm 32 to rotate towards the busbar on the lower surface of the battery string group, so that the adsorption block 4 is driven to rotate to the busbar, and the adsorption block 4 pastes the picked label on the busbar.

[0075] The first drive unit 31 can be any existing rotary drive mechanism capable of driving the first swing arm 32 to rotate relative to the support frame 2. For example, the first drive unit 31 includes a drive motor and a rotating shaft, wherein the rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on the support frame 2, the first end of the first swing arm 32 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft, the drive motor is mounted on the support frame 2 and is connected to the rotating shaft for transmission, and the drive motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate so as to drive the first swing arm 32 to rotate horizontally.

[0076] The adsorption block 4 can be directly mounted on the second end of the first swing arm 32. In this case, the first swing arm 32 directly drives the adsorption block 4 to rotate to the busbar by swinging. Since the length of the first swing arm 32 is fixed, it is necessary to ensure that the busbar is on the rotation path of the second end of the first swing arm 32. That is to say, the swing arm assembly 3 of this structure can only perform labeling on battery strings of a specific size, and its versatility is low.

[0077] Continue to refer to, for example Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, optionally, the swing arm assembly 3 further includes a second drive unit 33 and a second swing arm 34, wherein: the first end of the second swing arm 34 is rotatably connected to the second end of the first swing arm 32 and is drively connected to the second drive unit 33 disposed on the first swing arm 32, and the second drive unit 33 is used to drive the second swing arm 34 to rotate relative to the second end of the first swing arm 32. The adsorption block 4 is connected to the second end of the second swing arm 34. That is, the adsorption block 4 is indirectly connected to the second end of the first swing arm 32 through the second swing arm 34, and the second swing arm 34 can drive the adsorption block 4 to rotate relative to the second end of the first swing arm 32.

[0078] Driven by the moving component 1, the adsorption block picks up the label from the printing mechanism 30 and moves it to the assembly station. First, the first driving unit 31 drives the first swing arm 32 to rotate towards the busbar, rotating the adsorption block 4 to the vicinity of the busbar. Then, the second driving unit 33 drives the second swing arm 34 to continue rotating horizontally towards the busbar, ultimately ensuring the adsorption block 4 accurately reaches the busbar. In other words, through the cooperation of the first swing arm 32 and the second swing arm 34, the swing arm assembly 3 increases the range of movement of the adsorption block 4 in the horizontal plane, thereby enabling this application to be compatible with battery packs of various sizes and ensuring that the adsorption block 4 can accurately rotate to the busbar for precise labeling.

[0079] The second drive unit 33 can be any existing rotary drive mechanism capable of driving the second swing arm 34 to rotate relative to the first swing arm 32.

[0080] Generally, labels printed within the printing mechanism 30 have the printed side facing up and the adhesive side facing down. To allow the adsorption block 4 to pick up the printed side of the label, the label is flipped over so the adhesive side is facing up and then affixed to the busbar on the lower surface of the battery string. Optionally, such as...Figures 2 to 3 As shown, the labeling mechanism 10 further comprises a turnover driving assembly 5, which is arranged at the second end of the swing arm assembly 3, and the suction block 4 is connected to the movable part of the turnover driving assembly 5. The turnover driving assembly 5 is used to drive the suction block 4 to vertically turn over, so that the suction surface of the suction block 4 faces downward to pick up the label, and then turn over the suction block 4 and the picked-up label to face upward, so as to ensure that the adhesive surface of the label faces upward and is attached to the busbar on the lower surface of the battery string group.

[0081] As shown in Figure 2 Optionally, the moving assembly 1 comprises a translation driving member 11 and a lifting driving member 12, wherein the lifting driving member 12 is connected to the movable part of the translation driving member 11, and the carrier frame 2 is connected to the movable part of the lifting driving member 12. The translation driving member 11 is used to drive the carrier frame 2 to translate along the first horizontal direction, and the lifting driving member 12 is used to drive the carrier frame 2 to lift.

[0082] The translation driving member 11 and the lifting driving member 12 can each adopt a linear driving module of various known structures, such as a belt driving module or a screw driving module.

[0083] Optionally, the carrying mechanism comprises a driving mechanism, a mounting rack, and a plurality of suction disc assemblies, wherein the mounting rack is connected to the movable part of the driving mechanism, and the plurality of suction disc assemblies are arranged on the mounting rack and correspond to the battery strings in the battery string group one by one. The driving mechanism is used to drive the plurality of suction disc assemblies to move synchronously, so as to drive the plurality of suction disc assemblies to synchronously suck and carry the corresponding battery strings in the battery string group. Since each battery string in the battery string group is adsorbed by the carrying mechanism, this can prevent the busbar between the battery strings from falling off due to the sagging of part of the battery strings.

[0084] Optionally, the photovoltaic module production device in the embodiment of the present application further comprises a layout and welding mechanism, which is configured to arrange a plurality of battery strings and weld the arranged plurality of battery strings into a battery string group through busbars. The carrying mechanism picks up the battery string group from the layout and welding mechanism and carries the picked-up battery string group to above the assembly station. By arranging the layout and welding mechanism, the photovoltaic module production device in the embodiment of the present application can complete the labeling and assembly of the battery string group immediately after the layout and welding of the battery string group, thereby improving the production efficiency of the photovoltaic module.

[0085] The layout and welding mechanism can adopt various layout and welding machines known in the art, which can arrange and weld a plurality of battery strings into a battery string group.
