Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of photovoltaic module processing, and particularly provides a cell piece feeding device. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the production process of photovoltaic cells, the flower basket containing the cells needs to be transported between various workstations (for example, a laser slotting workstation, etc.). Each workstation usually has a feeding device for the flower basket to enter, and after the flower basket is placed on the feeding device, it is transported to a specific workstation.

[0003] However, after the flower basket is uniformly placed on the feeding device, it usually needs to be regularized and then transported. During the regularization process, the flower basket may move in the reverse direction along the feeding device, causing the flower basket to fall off the conveying track. Although in some related technologies, a self-rebound seat or other blocking member is arranged on the feeding device to prevent the reverse movement of the flower basket, in actual application, the above blocking member often has abnormal phenomena such as jamming, thereby causing the blocking effect to fail and causing damage to the flower basket and the cells.

[0004] Correspondingly, there is a need in the art for a new technical solution to solve the above problems. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT

[0005] The present application aims to solve the above technical problems, i.e., to solve the problem of the flower basket containing the cells falling off the conveying track due to reverse movement during feeding.

[0006] To this end, the present application provides a cell piece feeding device, which comprises:

[0007] a base comprising two surrounding parts arranged side by side;

[0008] a conveying track located between the two surrounding parts;

[0009] at least one stop component arranged on the surrounding part, the stop component comprising a stop piece slidingly arranged on the surrounding part and an elastic piece connected to the stop piece, the stop piece comprising a guide surface and a stop surface, the stop piece being capable of extending towards the conveying track under the elastic force of the elastic piece or retracting into the surrounding part when the guide surface is subjected to an external force.

[0010] In one technical solution of the above feeding device, a slide is formed on the surrounding part, the stop piece is slidingly arranged in the slide, the slide penetrates the surrounding part in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the conveying track, and the stop component further comprises:

[0011] A sliding rod is connected to the end of the stop member opposite to the guide surface, and a limiting part is provided at the end of the sliding rod away from the stop member;

[0012] A fixed base is connected to the enclosure portion. The sliding rod passes through the fixed base. The limiting portion abuts against the first surface of the fixed base. One end of the elastic member abuts against the stop member, and the other end abuts against the second surface of the fixed base.

[0013] In one technical solution of the above-mentioned feeding device, a slide rail is provided on the enclosure, and the stop member is slidably disposed in the slide rail. The slide rail does not penetrate the enclosure in the extension direction perpendicular to the conveying track. The stop assembly further includes:

[0014] A sliding rod is connected to the stop member. A limiting part is provided at the end of the sliding rod away from the stop member. The sliding rod passes through the enclosure part through the bottom surface of the slide rail. The limiting part abuts against the side surface of the enclosure part away from the conveying track. One end of the elastic member abuts against the stop member, and the other end abuts against the bottom surface of the slide rail.

[0015] In one technical solution of the above-mentioned feeding device, the enclosure part is further provided with a guide groove that extends through the slide rail, and the stop assembly further includes:

[0016] A guide rod is connected to the stop member, and the side surface of the guide rod is in contact with the inner wall of the guide groove and can slide along the guide groove.

[0017] In one technical solution of the above-mentioned feeding device, the cross-section of the guide rod is circular.

[0018] In one technical solution of the above-mentioned feeding device, the guide rod is rotatably connected to the stop.

[0019] In one technical solution of the above-mentioned feeding device, the elastic element is a spring.

[0020] In one technical solution of the above-mentioned feeding device, the guide surface is an inclined surface or an arc surface.

[0021] In one technical solution of the above-mentioned feeding device, one stop assembly is provided on each of the enclosure parts.

[0022] In one technical solution of the above-mentioned feeding device, the upper surface of the enclosure is higher than the conveying plane of the conveying track.

[0023] When the above technical solution is adopted, during the cell loading process, the basket moves towards the guide surface. During this process, the edge of the basket moves along the guide surface, exerting a resistance force on the stop. In the relative movement between the guide surface and the basket, the stop compresses the elastic element and continuously moves inwards towards the enclosure until the basket detaches from the guide surface. At this point, the stop also moves in the opposite direction due to the release of the elastic potential energy of the elastic element, and the guide surface and the stop surface extend again towards the direction of the conveyor track. Thus, when multiple baskets are transported to the conveyor track, during the backward alignment process, the stop prevents the baskets from falling off the conveyor track due to reverse movement, thereby reducing the possibility of damage to the baskets and cells and improving the safety of the cell loading process.

Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Those skilled in the art can make adjustments as needed to adapt to specific application scenarios.

For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of a battery cell feeding device according to an embodiment of this application, which includes a base 1, a conveying track 2, and a stop assembly 3.

[0036] The base 1 serves as the supporting foundation for the feeding device, and includes two side-by-side enclosure parts 11. In other implementations, the base 1 may also include supports or other structures to support the enclosure parts 11, which will not be elaborated upon here. The conveying track 2 carries and transports the basket 100 containing the battery cells. Those skilled in the art will understand that the conveying track 2 can be a reciprocating structure such as a conveyor belt or chain plate, and driven by chain drive, synchronous belt drive, or other methods. Optionally, the upper surface of the enclosure part 11 is higher than the conveying plane of the conveying track 2, so that after the basket 100 is placed on the conveying track 2, the enclosure part 11 can limit the conveying process of the basket 100, preventing it from deviating or falling off the conveying track 2.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The stop assembly 3 includes a stop member 31 and an elastic member 32 connected to the stop member 31. The stop member 31 is slidably disposed on the enclosure portion 11. The end of the stop member 31 facing the conveying track 2 includes a guide surface 311 and a stop surface 312. The elastic member 32 is disposed on the side of the stop member 31 away from the guide surface 311 and the stop surface 312. The stop member 31 can extend towards the conveying track 2 under the elastic force of the elastic member 32, or retract into the enclosure portion 11 when the guide surface 311 is subjected to an external force. In one embodiment of this application, the guide surface 311 is an inclined surface or an arc surface, and the stop surface 312 is a plane.

[0038] During the loading of the solar cells, the basket 100 moves toward the guide surface 311. During this process, the edge of the basket 100 moves along the guide surface 311, exerting a resistance force on the stop 31. In the relative movement between the guide surface 311 and the basket 100, the stop 31 compresses the elastic element 32 and continuously moves inward toward the enclosure 11 until the basket 100 disengages from the guide surface 311. At this point, the stop 31 also moves in the opposite direction due to the release of the elastic potential energy of the elastic element 32, and the guide surface 311 and the stop 312 extend toward the direction of the conveyor track 2 again. Thus, when multiple baskets 100 are transported onto the conveyor track 2, during the backward alignment process of the multiple baskets 100, the stop 312 prevents the baskets 100 from falling off the conveyor track 2 due to reverse movement, thereby reducing the possibility of damage to the baskets 100 and the solar cells and improving the safety of the solar cell loading process.

[0039] In one embodiment of this application, a slide 111 is provided on the enclosure 11 along the extension direction perpendicular to the conveying track 2, and a stop 31 is slidably disposed on the slide 111. The slide 111 passes through the enclosure 11 in the extension direction perpendicular to the conveying track 2, so that both ends of the stop 31 can pass through the slide 111.

[0040] The stop assembly 3 also includes a sliding rod 33 and a fixed seat 34. The sliding rod 33 is fixedly connected to the end of the stop member 31 opposite to the guide surface 311. In one embodiment of this application, the fixed seat 34 has an L-shaped cross-section. One end of the fixed seat 34 is connected to the enclosure part 11, and the other end is through which the sliding rod 33 passes. Specifically, the fixed seat 34 has a through hole through which the sliding rod 33 passes. A limiting part 331 is fixedly provided at the end of the sliding rod 33 away from the stop member 31. The cross-sectional dimension of the limiting part is larger than the through hole, thereby preventing the sliding rod 33 from detaching from the fixed seat 34. For ease of description, the surface of the fixed seat 34 facing away from the stop member 31 is called the first surface, and the surface opposite to the first surface is called the second surface. Thus, when the stop member 31 moves along the slide 111 towards the direction of the conveying track 2, the limiting part 331 can be locked onto the first surface. The elastic element 32 is sleeved on the sliding rod 33. One end of the elastic element 32 abuts against the stop 31, and the other end abuts against the second surface of the fixed seat 34. Optionally, the elastic element 32 can be an elastic element such as a spring or a disc spring. This application does not limit this.

[0041] As described above, when the stop member 31 is subjected to the pressure of the basket 100, the stop member 31 moves along the slide rail 111 toward the side where the fixed seat 34 is located, while the sliding rod 33 moves relative to the fixed seat 34, and the elastic member 32 is compressed. When the basket 100 disengages from the stop member 31, the stop member 31 and the sliding rod 33 move in opposite directions until the limiting part 331 is engaged with the first surface of the fixed seat 34, thus limiting the stroke of the stop member 31.

[0042] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment of this application, a guide groove 112 is also provided on the upper surface of the enclosure part 11. The guide groove 112 extends into the slide rail 111. A guide rod 35 is fixedly connected to the stop member 31. The guide rod 35 extends into the guide groove 112, and the side surface of the guide rod 35 is in contact with the inner wall of the guide groove 112.

[0043] It should be noted that when the basket 100 pushes the stop 31 to slide, the excessive force acting on the guide surface 311 may increase the friction between the stop 31 and the inner wall of the slide rail 111, causing the stop 31 to jam. This will affect the normal feeding process. Therefore, as the basket 100 presses against the guide surface 311 to make the stop 31 slide along the slide rail 111, the guide rod 35 slides against the inner wall of the guide groove 112. The cooperation between the guide rod 35 and the guide groove 112 plays a major guiding role in the movement of the stop 31. Since the contact area between the guide rod 35 and the guide groove 112 is small, the frictional resistance during the movement of the stop 31 can be reduced, thus improving the jamming phenomenon during the sliding of the stop 31.

[0044] Optionally, the cross-section of the guide rod 35 is set to be circular. In this way, the side surface of the guide rod 35 forms a line contact with the inner wall of the guide groove 112, which can minimize the contact area between the guide rod 35 and the guide groove 112, thereby reducing the jamming of the stop member 31 while ensuring the guiding effect.

[0045] Furthermore, in one implementation, the guide rod 35 can be rotatably connected to the stop 31. By adopting this method, as the stop 31 slides along the slide rail 111, the guide rod 35 can roll relative to the inner wall of the guide groove 112, thereby converting sliding friction into rolling friction, further reducing the friction between the guide rod 35 and the guide groove 112, and improving the smoothness of the stop 31 during sliding.

[0046] Reference Figure 5In another embodiment of this application, the fixed seat 34 can be omitted. That is, the slide 111 does not penetrate the enclosure 11 in the extension direction perpendicular to the conveying track 2. In this case, the bottom surface of the slide 111 can replace the fixed seat 34 and play a similar role. Specifically, the bottom surface of the slide 111 has a through hole that extends to the side surface of the enclosure 11. The sliding rod 33 extends out of the slide 111 through the through hole. The limiting part 331 can abut against the side surface of the enclosure 11 away from the conveying track 2. The elastic member 32 is located inside the slide 111, and one end of the elastic member 32 abuts against the stop member 31, and the other end abuts against the bottom surface of the slide 111. In this way, the stop assembly 3 omits the fixed seat 34, and can still achieve the sliding and self-resetting functions of the stop member 31.

[0047] As described above, although the stop component 3 and its cooperation with the enclosure portion 11 have been exemplarily illustrated in the above embodiments of this application, the above methods should not be construed as limiting this application. For example, in some other implementations, Figure 5 Taking the illustrated method as an example, the sliding rod 33 can also be omitted; that is, the elastic member 32 can be provided only between the stop member 31 and the bottom surface of the slide rail 111, which can also achieve the above purpose. Alternatively, if the stop assembly 3 includes the sliding rod 33, the limiting part 331 at the end of the sliding rod 33 can also be omitted, provided that the sliding rod 33 is long enough. Other adaptive adjustments made according to actual needs, without departing from the technical principles of this application, should all be within the protection scope of this application.

[0048] In one embodiment of this application, two sets of stop components 3 are provided, with one set of stop components 3 provided on each enclosure part 11. In this way, during the feeding process, the two sides of the flower basket 100 are simultaneously resisted by the guide surface 311 of the stop component 31, ensuring the force balance of the flower basket 100 and preventing the flower basket 100 from tilting due to unilateral force. At the same time, after the flower basket 100 passes the stop component 31, the stop surfaces 312 on both sides of the conveying track 2 both play a blocking role on the flower basket 100, further ensuring the safety of the flower basket 100 and the battery cells.

[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the solar cell feeding device of this application can be applied to any position in the photovoltaic solar cell production line where solar cells need to be fed and transported, or it can be set between adjacent processing stations in the production line to transfer and transport solar cells between adjacent stations, playing a role similar to a docking station.

[0050] The technical solutions of this application have been described above with reference to the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that the scope of protection of this application is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principles of this application, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will all fall within the scope of protection of this application.
