[0002] In the field of machining, especially in drilling workpieces involving frames, traditional machining equipment has many shortcomings in terms of frame fixation. Previous fixtures were often designed in a relatively simple way, unable to achieve flexible and precise height adjustment for frames of different thicknesses. When dealing with thinner electronic product frames and thicker industrial equipment frames, multiple types of fixtures are often required to ensure the frame is securely fixed and meets machining requirements.

[0030] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Rather, the embodiments of the present invention include all variations, modifications, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

[0031] The drilling device for aluminum frame of photovoltaic module according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the drilling device for aluminum frame of photovoltaic module according to this embodiment of the present invention includes a main frame 101, a moving frame 102, a processing frame 103 and a processing table 104.

[0033] The moving device includes an x-axis moving mechanism 2, a y-axis moving mechanism 3, and a z-axis moving mechanism 4.

[0034] A two-axis rotating device is located at the moving end of the z-axis moving mechanism 4, and includes a rotating mechanism 5 and a longitudinal axis mechanism 6.

[0035] Drilling machine 7, the base of drilling machine 7 is set on the rotating shaft of longitudinal shaft mechanism 6.

[0036] Multiple sets of frame fixing fixtures 8 are provided and mounted on the surface of the processing table 104. Each frame fixing fixture 8 includes a base 9, multiple sets of sliding rods, and multiple sets of lifting adjustment cylinders 13.

[0037] The base 9 is set on the top surface of the processing table 104, and the tooling table 10 is fixed on the top surface of the base 9.

[0038] Sliding shaft 11 is disposed on the surface of tooling table 10.

[0039] Adjustment table 12, each set of adjustment table 12 is respectively set at the moving end of sliding shaft 11, and multiple sets of adjustment cylinders 13 are fixed on the surface of tooling table 10, and the output end of adjustment cylinder 13 is connected to the bottom surface of adjustment table 12.

[0040] Clamping blocks 14 are provided at both ends of the top surface of each set of adjustment platforms 12.

[0041] The base 9 is securely mounted on the top surface of the processing table 104, and the tooling table 10 is fixed on the base 9. Sliding shafts 11 are arranged in an orderly fashion on the surface of the tooling table 10, and each set of adjusting platforms 12 is connected to the moving end of the sliding shaft 11. Multiple sets of adjusting cylinders 13 are also fixed to the surface of the tooling table 10. The output end of the adjusting cylinder 13 is tightly connected to the bottom surface of the adjusting platform 12. By adjusting the extension and retraction of the adjusting cylinder 13, the height of the adjusting platform 12 can be easily and precisely controlled to accommodate frames of different thicknesses. At both ends of the top surface of each set of adjusting platforms 12, a set of clamping blocks 14 is provided for initial fixing of the frame.

[0042] Sliding shafts 11 are arranged in an orderly manner on the surface of the fixture table 10, and each set of adjusting platforms 12 is connected to the moving end of the sliding shaft 11. Multiple sets of adjusting cylinders 13 are also fixed to the surface of the fixture table 10, with the output end of the adjusting cylinder 13 tightly connected to the bottom surface of the adjusting platform 12. Due to the varying thicknesses of the aluminum frames of photovoltaic modules, the height of the adjusting platform 12 can be easily and precisely adjusted by extending and retracting the adjusting cylinders 13 to accommodate aluminum frames of different thicknesses. At both ends of the top surface of each set of adjusting platforms 12, a set of clamping blocks 14 is provided for initial fixation of the aluminum frame.

[0043] Specifically, when machining the frame of an electronic product, the worker first places the frame on the tooling table 10. Based on the frame thickness, the control system activates the adjusting cylinder 13, which pushes the adjusting table 12 up or down along the sliding shaft 11 until the adjusting table 12 reaches the appropriate height. At this point, the clamping blocks 14 at both ends of the top surface of the adjusting table 12 initially fix the frame in place. Subsequently, the moving device begins operation. The x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis moving mechanisms, according to a preset program, drive the ball screws to rotate via servo motors, causing the moving frame 102, processing frame 103, and two-axis rotating device to move precisely in their respective directions, transporting the drilling machine 7 to the processing position on the frame. During drilling, if the drilling angle needs adjustment, the rotating mechanism 5 and the longitudinal axis mechanism 6 of the two-axis rotating device, driven by a servo reduction motor, rotate the shaft and rotating block via a steering gear, thereby rotating the drilling machine 7 to the required angle, completing the high-precision drilling operation.

[0044] In one embodiment of this utility model, the frame fixing fixture 8 further includes clamping rods 15. Each set of adjusting platforms 12 has a rotating rod 16 rotatably connected to both ends. Each set of rotating rods 16 has a clamping rod 15 fixed to its outer wall. Each set of adjusting platforms has a fine-tuning cylinder 17 on its bottom surface at both ends. The bottom surface of the rotating rod 16 is rotatably connected to a connecting rod 18. The output end of the fine-tuning cylinder 17 is provided with a drive shaft 19. The end of the connecting rod 18 away from the rotating rod 16 has a sliding groove. The drive shaft 19 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove of the connecting rod 18.

[0045] The worker first places the frame on the tooling table 10. Based on the frame thickness, the control system activates the adjusting cylinder 13, which pushes the adjusting table 12 up or down along the sliding shaft 11 until it reaches the appropriate height. At this point, the clamping blocks 14 at both ends of the top surface of the adjusting table 12 initially fix the frame in place. Subsequently, if further fine-tuning of the frame's fixation is needed, the worker can operate the control system to activate the fine-tuning cylinder 17. After the fine-tuning cylinder 17 is activated, its output drive shaft 19 slides within the groove of the connecting rod 18. Since the connecting rod 18 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 16, the sliding of the drive shaft 19 drives the connecting rod 18 to move, thereby causing the rotating rod 16 to rotate. The clamping rod 15, fixed to the outer wall of the rotating rod 16, rotates accordingly, completing the fixation of the frame and ensuring subsequent drilling work.

[0046] In one embodiment of this utility model, the movable frame 102 is slidably disposed on the track of the main frame 101, the base of the x-axis moving mechanism 2 is connected to the main frame 101, the moving end of the x-axis moving mechanism 2 is connected to the movable frame 102, the processing frame 103 is slidably disposed on the track of the movable frame 102, the base of the y-axis moving mechanism 3 is connected to the movable frame 102, the moving end of the y-axis moving mechanism 3 is connected to the processing frame 103, the two-axis rotating device is slidably disposed on the track of the processing frame 103, the base of the z-axis moving mechanism 4 is connected to the processing frame 103, and the moving end of the z-axis moving mechanism 4 is connected to the two-axis rotating device.

[0047] The x-axis moving mechanism 2, y-axis moving mechanism 3, and z-axis moving mechanism 4 all include a lead screw bearing housing, a ball screw, and a servo motor. The lead screw bearing housing is mounted on the frame, the screw part of the ball screw is connected to the frame, and the moving end of the ball screw slides on the frame.

[0048] Specifically, when processing a specific model of aluminum frame, the worker selects the corresponding model on the operation panel, and the system then calculates the coordinate values ​​of each drilling position in the equipment coordinate system based on the aluminum frame design drawings and the coordinates of the equipment frame 1. The three-axis moving mechanism can drive the drilling machine 7 to move to the drilling position.

[0049] In one embodiment of this utility model, the moving end of the z-axis moving mechanism 4 is connected to the rotating mechanism 5, the rotating shaft of the rotating mechanism 5 is connected to the body of the longitudinal axis mechanism 6, and the base of the drilling machine 7 is set on the rotating shaft of the longitudinal axis mechanism 6.

[0050] Both the rotary shaft mechanism and the longitudinal shaft mechanism 6 include a rotary base, a shaft, a rotating block, and a servo geared motor. The rotary base is equipped with a bearing, the shaft is rotatably mounted on the inner shaft of the bearing, the rotating block is connected to the shaft, and the output end of the servo geared motor is connected to the shaft through multiple sets of steering gears. The servo geared motor drives the rotating block to rotate.

[0051] Specifically, when the side hole of the aluminum frame needs to form a certain angle with the long side of the frame, the rotating mechanism 5 will rotate the drilling machine 7 to the corresponding horizontal angle.

[0052] If further adjustment of the longitudinal tilt angle of the borehole is needed, the longitudinal axis mechanism 6 comes into play. The bearings inside the rotating housing of the longitudinal axis mechanism 6 also ensure smooth rotation of the shaft. The control system activates the servo reduction motor of the longitudinal axis mechanism 6, and the motor power is transmitted to the shaft via the steering gear, causing the shaft to rotate the rotating block. Because the base of the drilling machine 7 is mounted on the rotating shaft of the longitudinal axis mechanism 6, the drilling machine 7 tilts longitudinally as the rotating block rotates. For example, when a certain vertical tilt is required for the side hole, the longitudinal axis mechanism 6 can adjust the drilling machine 7 to a suitable longitudinal tilt angle.

[0053] In one embodiment of this utility model, a CCD camera is also included, which is disposed on the outer wall of the seat of the longitudinal axis mechanism 6.

[0054] The CCD camera is used to photograph the border features and determine the location of the punch holes.

[0055] Specifically, in actual execution, when machining the frame of an electronic product, the worker first places the frame on the tooling table 10. Based on the frame thickness, the control system activates the adjusting cylinder 13, which pushes the adjusting table 12 up or down along the sliding shaft 11 until the adjusting table 12 reaches the appropriate height. At this point, the clamping blocks 14 at both ends of the top surface of the adjusting table 12 initially fix the frame in place. Subsequently, the moving device begins operation. The x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis moving mechanisms, according to a preset program, drive the ball screws to rotate via servo motors, causing the moving frame 102, processing frame 103, and two-axis rotating device to move precisely in their respective directions, transporting the drilling machine 7 to the processing position on the frame. During drilling, if the drilling angle needs adjustment, the rotating mechanism 5 and the longitudinal axis mechanism 6 of the two-axis rotating device, driven by a servo reduction motor, rotate the shaft and rotating block via a steering gear, thereby rotating the drilling machine 7 to the required angle to complete the high-precision drilling operation.

[0056] In summary, the drilling device for aluminum frames of photovoltaic modules according to this utility model embodiment allows for precise control of the adjustment table height via an adjustable cylinder, easily adapting to frames of different thicknesses. Whether it's a thinner frame for electronic products or a thicker frame for industrial equipment, a suitable fixing height can be quickly found, greatly improving the equipment's versatility for different frame specifications, reducing the time cost of frequently changing tooling due to differences in frame thickness, and improving overall processing efficiency.
