[0033] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can better understand and implement the present invention. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0034] For ease of understanding, this embodiment uses Figure 1 Based on this, the direction of the X-axis is defined as the first horizontal direction, the direction of the Y-axis is defined as the second horizontal direction, and the direction of the Z-axis is defined as the vertical direction.

[0035] Reference Figures 1-6As shown, the embodiment provides a transition warehouse and a sealing warehouse door installed in the transition warehouse. The transition warehouse is connected to a buffer station for buffering materials. The transition warehouse can transition the materials entering and leaving the buffer station, so as to reduce the interference of environmental factors, such as air oxidation. The main structure of the transition warehouse is a sealing warehouse 4, which has sealing property and certain strength. The sealing warehouse 4 is provided with at least two passage openings 41, and the two passage openings 41 are provided on the two sides of the sealing warehouse 4 along a first horizontal direction. Taking the process of the materials entering the buffer station from the outside as an example, at least one of the passage openings 41 is set as an input port for the materials to enter the sealing warehouse 4 of the transition warehouse from the input port. At least another passage opening 41 is set as an output port for the buffer station, and is used for the materials to enter the buffer station from the sealing warehouse 4 through the output port. For the process of the materials taken out from the buffer station, the positions of the input port and the output port of the sealing warehouse 4 are just opposite. The above-mentioned arrangement realizes the transition and transmission of the materials between different areas. In the embodiment, the solar cell is placed from the outside into the transition warehouse, and is transferred from the transition warehouse to the buffer station for buffering and placing, or the solar cell in the buffer station enters the transition warehouse, and is taken out from the transition warehouse for use. The sealing warehouse door is arranged at the input port and the output port of the sealing warehouse 4 respectively, and the interlocking mechanism is arranged in the sealing warehouse 3 to interlock the sealing warehouse doors on the two sides. The interlocking structure can be a mechanical interlocking structure or an electrical interlocking structure, so that the sealing warehouse door on one side of the input port and the sealing warehouse door on one side of the output port of the sealing warehouse 4 can only open one door at the same time, and the other door is locked by the interlocking mechanism and cannot be opened. The sealing warehouse door is arranged on the side away from the input direction of the passage opening 41 of the sealing warehouse 4, so as to reduce the interference of the sealing warehouse door and avoid the interference and shielding of the sealing warehouse door to the conveying of the materials. Specifically, in the process of inputting the materials into the buffer warehouse, the sealing warehouse door is arranged on the side of the passage opening 41 of the sealing warehouse 4 close to the buffer warehouse.

[0036] For the embodiment, the sealing warehouse door includes a lifting mechanism 2, a door plate 1, and a pressing mechanism 3. Specifically, the lifting mechanism 2 is at least two groups. The at least two groups of lifting mechanisms 2 are arranged on the two sides of the door plate 1 along a second horizontal direction. In the embodiment, the lifting mechanism 2 is two groups and is arranged on the two sides of the door plate 1 along the second horizontal direction. The synchronous movement of the two groups of lifting mechanisms 2 provides better lifting stability for the door plate 1. Each group of lifting mechanisms 2 is provided with at least two groups of pressing mechanisms 3 connected with the door plate 1 along a vertical direction, and the door plate 1 moves along the first direction by the pressing mechanism 3 to realize the retreat or closure of the passage opening 41.

[0037] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the lifting mechanism 2 includes a support member 21 disposed on the sealing chamber 4 and a first driving member 23 mounted on the support member 21. The support member 21 is disposed vertically on the side of the passage opening 41 of the sealing chamber 4. The support member 21 is provided with a support 25, through which the first driving member 23 is mounted. The first driving member 23 is a rodless cylinder or a linear motor. In this embodiment, since the transition chamber needs to fit against the main body of the buffer station to realize the material conveying transition, the space between the transition chamber and the main body of the buffer station is usually relatively small. Therefore, a rodless cylinder is selected as the first driving member 23, which can save installation space. Compared with ordinary cylinders, there is no exposed piston rod, the structure is more compact, and it is suitable for large stroke in limited space, especially suitable for the application scenario of transition chambers. The two fixed ends of the first driving member are mounted on the inner side of the support member 21 through the support 25. The movable part of the first driving member 23 is connected to the mounting plate 24 and can drive the mounting plate 24 to move in the vertical direction. The mounting plate 24 is a bent L-shape, including a connecting portion extending from the output end of the first drive member 23 to the door panel 1 along a first horizontal direction, and a mounting portion extending from the connecting portion along a second horizontal direction. The plane of the mounting portion is parallel to the plane of the door panel 1. The connecting portion and the mounting portion are integrally bent to ensure structural strength. The pressing mechanism 3 is fixedly mounted on the mounting portion. A sliding pair 22 is provided between the mounting plate 24 and the support member 21. The sliding pair 22 includes a slide rail 221 arranged vertically on the support member 21, and a slider 222 slidably connected to the slide rail 221. The connecting portion of the mounting plate 24 is fixedly mounted on the slider 222, thereby limiting and guiding the up and down sliding of the pressing mechanism 3. Generally, a photoelectric contact (not shown in the figure) is installed on the mounting plate 24, and two photoelectric sensors (not shown in the figure) for upper and lower limit are provided on the inner side of the support member 21, thereby limiting the up and down of the pressing mechanism 3, and thus limiting the up and down of the door 1.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the pressing mechanism 3 includes a second driving member 31 disposed on the mounting plate 24. The second driving member 31 includes, but is not limited to, a linear motor or a cylinder. In this embodiment, a cylinder is selected, and the main body of the second driving member 31 is fixedly installed on the side of the mounting portion of the mounting plate 24 away from the door panel 1. Its piston rod end passes through the mounting plate 24 and is fixedly connected to the door panel 1, so that the door panel 1 and the output end of the second driving member 31 are connected. Then, after the door panel 1 is raised and lowered into position, it can be driven by the second driving member 31 along the first horizontal direction to press, cover and seal the channel opening 41, and form a closed state of the channel opening 41 on the corresponding side of the sealing chamber 4. Each set of lifting mechanisms 2 mentioned above, which is arranged vertically, has a corresponding mounting plate 24. These mounting plates 24 are fixedly connected by connecting side plates to realize the synchronous lifting of multiple pressing mechanisms.

[0039] ReferenceFigure 1 , Figures 5-6 As shown, the door panel 1 is movably mounted at the passage opening 41 of the chamber to be sealed 4, and the size of the door panel 1 is adapted to the passage opening 41. A shock-absorbing pad 32 is provided between the mounting part of the mounting plate 24 and the door panel 1, which can play a buffering role. This reduces the impact and vibration between the door panel 1 and the mounting plate 24 during the opening and closing process, so as to protect the door panel 1, the first drive member 23 and the mounting plate 24 used between the two, and at the same time, it can also reduce the noise during the closing process, improve the stability and service life of the equipment.

[0040] Reference Figure 1 As shown, a viewing window 11 is embedded in the door panel 1 to allow observation of the interior of the transition chamber. A mounting hole matching the size of the viewing window 11 is provided in the center of the door panel 1. The shape of the viewing window 11 includes, but is not limited to, circles and rectangles. Its size is determined according to actual needs and the dimensions of the door panel 1 to ensure a sufficiently large field of view without affecting the overall strength and sealing performance of the door panel 1. The viewing window 11 is typically made of transparent materials, including but not limited to glass or transparent plastics such as acrylic, giving it good light transmission and certain wear and corrosion resistance, maintaining a clear observation effect during long-term use. The viewing window 11 is sealed to the door panel 1 to prevent external gases, dust, or liquids from entering the sealed chamber 4.

[0041] A sealing ring (not shown in the figure) is provided on the sealing door or sealing chamber 4. The sealing ring is embedded or fixedly bonded to the side wall of the passage opening 41 of the sealing door or sealing chamber 4, so that the sealing ring fits against the outer or inner circumference of the passage opening 41 of the sealing chamber 4 when the door panel 1 is closed. When the sealing door is closed, the sealing ring is squeezed to achieve a seal. A corresponding sealing groove (not shown in the figure) is opened on the side wall of the passage opening 41 of the sealing chamber 4 or on the sealing door, so that when the sealing door is closed, the door panel 1 moves closer to the passage opening 41 of the sealing chamber 4. Since the sealing ring is fixed on the side wall of the passage opening 41 of the sealing door or sealing chamber 4, as the door panel 1 moves, the sealing ring gradually contacts the outer circumference of the passage opening 41 of the sealing chamber 4 and is squeezed. Under the action of compression, the sealing ring undergoes elastic deformation and fits tightly against the outer circumference of the passage opening 41. At the same time, due to the presence of the sealing groove, the sealing ring will embed into the sealing groove during the deformation process, further increasing the tightness and reliability of the seal. The sealing performance is improved through the cooperation between the sealing ring and the sealing groove.

[0042] The active space is formed between the support 21 and the passage opening 41 of the sealed warehouse 4, and the dimension of the active space along the first horizontal direction is greater than the sum of the dimension of the door plate 1 and the mounting plate 24, and the dimension along the vertical direction is at least twice the height of the door plate 1. When it is needed to open the sealed warehouse door, the lifting mechanism 2 drives the door plate 1 to move downward along the vertical direction, and the door plate 1 gradually lowers in the active space until the top of the door plate 1 is aligned with or lower than the passage opening 41, which provides an unobstructed passage for the material to enter or exit. When the material enters or exits and it is needed to close the sealed warehouse door, the door plate 1 is driven by the lifting mechanism 2 to move upward along the vertical direction until the passage opening 41 is completely blocked. Through the above arrangement, the door plate 1 can be lifted and hidden in the sealed warehouse 4 along the vertical direction, or moved in the active space along the first horizontal direction to retreat from the side wall of the passage opening 41 or to close the passage opening 41.

[0043] Since the buffer station needs to buffer enough battery pieces, it usually has a certain height, and the transition warehouse is divided into upper and lower parts. The passage opening 41 is located in the upper part of the transition warehouse, and the height of the passage opening 41 is set to adapt to the middle height of the buffer station, so that the material can quickly and directly enter the transition warehouse through the passage opening 41 from the outside and enter the buffer station through the transition warehouse, and the sorting path inside the buffer station can also be reduced, thereby improving the buffer sorting efficiency. The height of the passage opening 41 can allow the door plate 1 to be hidden in the lower part of the transition warehouse when it is lowered, so that the internal space of the transition warehouse is fully utilized, and the lower part of the transition warehouse can be used to place power components such as air sources, thereby providing more available space and further optimizing the entire workflow and space layout, thereby improving the space utilization of the transition warehouse.

[0044] Working principle: through the transition warehouse and buffer station docking, the sealing warehouse 4 in transition warehouse is opened at least two channel mouth 41, one of which is used as an input port for material into the sealing warehouse 4, the other is as an output port and buffer station docking let material into the buffer station. When the material through the input port side into the sealing warehouse 4, first use the second drive member 31 close to the input port side to drive the side door plate 1 away from the input port, and then use the first drive member 23 on the side to drive the second drive member 31 to drive the door plate 1 to move down, until the door plate 1 does not cause the input port to block, so as to facilitate the material into the sealing warehouse 4, and at this time the output port side of the sealing warehouse door is in the closed state. When the material into the sealing warehouse 4, reverse operation input port side of the sealing warehouse door, that is, first through the first drive member 23 on the side to drive the door plate 1 to rise to the height of the input port, and then through the second drive member 31 on the side to drive the door plate 1 to press the side wall covering the input port of the sealing warehouse 4, so that the transition warehouse is in the sealing state. When the material needs to be transferred from the sealed transition warehouse to the buffer station, first through the second drive member 31 on the output port side to drive the door plate 1 away from the output port, and then use the first drive member 23 on the side to drive the second drive member 31 to drive the door plate 1 on the side to move down, until the door plate 1 does not cause the output port to block, so as to facilitate the material from the sealing warehouse 4 to the buffer station.

[0045] Obviously, the above examples are only for the purpose of illustration, and not limited to the embodiments. For those skilled in the art, on the basis of the above description, other different forms of changes or variations can also be made. Here it is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all the embodiments. The obvious changes or variations derived therefrom are still within the scope of the present invention.
