[0031] In traditional technology, a robotic arm picks up the frame and places it on an assembly line into a frame gluing machine. The gluing machine applies glue inside the frame's groove and sets it aside. When the battery cell laminate enters the fully automated framing machine, suction cups and surrounding limiting devices secure it. The robotic arm then picks up the pre-glued frame and assembles it. The assembly then flows out for subsequent processes. However, when a large gap is found between the battery cell laminate and the frame, adjusting the suction cup position in the fully automated framing machine and the robotic arm's assembly position is complex, severely impacting production efficiency.
[0032] Based on this, this application provides a repair device, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the repair device includes a support frame 100 and an adjustment mechanism 200.
[0033] The support frame 100 is used to support the frame of the photovoltaic module. The adjustment mechanism 200 includes multiple adjusters 210. Each adjuster 210 includes an adjustment member 211 disposed on the support frame 100 and an adsorption member 212 connected to the adjustment member 211. The adsorption member 212 is used to adsorb and fix the cell laminate in the photovoltaic module, and the adjustment member 211 is used to adjust the relative distance between the adsorption member 212 and the support frame 100.
[0034] This application utilizes a support frame 100 to support the frame of the photovoltaic module and keep the frame horizontal. Furthermore, it uses an adsorption component 212 to adsorb the cell laminate in the assembled photovoltaic module, keeping the cell laminate horizontal, and adjusts the height of the cell laminate by an adjustment component 211, thereby correcting the error between the frame and the cell laminate during the assembly process, reducing the gap between the cell laminate and the frame, and improving the yield.
[0035] It is understood that the photovoltaic modules in this application are assembled with the frame and cell laminate but the adhesive has not yet cured. Therefore, the repair device of this application can be installed at the discharge end of the frame assembly device to directly repair the assembled photovoltaic modules.
[0036] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, adjusters 210 are provided at least at each of the apex corners of the battery cell laminate. Taking a rectangular battery cell laminate as an example, adjusters 210 are respectively provided at the four apex corners of the battery cell laminate. By providing adjusters 210 at each apex corner of the battery cell laminate, this application can ensure that each side of the battery cell laminate can be adjusted to reduce the gap between the battery cell laminate and the frame.
[0037] In some embodiments, the adjusting member 211 includes a first telescopic member. The first telescopic member is disposed on the support frame 100 and connected to the adsorption member 212. The first telescopic member is used to drive the adsorption member 212 to move to adjust the relative distance between the adsorption member 212 and the support frame 100. Optionally, the first telescopic member can be a telescopic cylinder. This application utilizes the first telescopic member to drive the adsorption member 212 for adjustment, so that the battery cell laminate moves away from or closer to the support frame 100, thereby adjusting the relative height of the battery cell laminate between the frame and the edge, so as to reduce the gap between the battery cell laminate and the frame.
[0038] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, an adjustment track 110 is provided on the support frame 100. The regulator 210 is detachably mounted on the adjustment track 110. It is understood that the adjustment track is rationally selected according to the setting position of the regulator; for example, the adjustment track extends along the length direction of the photovoltaic module, and the adjustment track can slide and adjust its position along the width direction of the photovoltaic module on the support. This allows the regulator to be adjusted to any position in the length and width directions of the photovoltaic module to meet the repair requirements of photovoltaic modules of different specifications. Optionally, the regulator 210 can be detachably fixed to the adjustment track 110 using bolts and nuts. This application detachably mounts the regulator 210 on the adjustment track 110, enabling the position of the regulator 210 to be adjusted according to different photovoltaic module specifications to accommodate photovoltaic modules of different specifications.
[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1As shown, at least one limiting member 120 is also provided on the support frame 100. The limiting member 120 is used to limit the position of the photovoltaic module on the support frame 100. By setting the limiting member 120, this application positions the photovoltaic module, thereby ensuring that the regulator 210 can be aligned with the four apex corners of the cell laminate, thereby improving the adjustment accuracy.
[0040] In some embodiments, the limiting member 120 includes a second telescopic member disposed on the support frame 100. The second telescopic member protrudes from the support frame 100 to limit the photovoltaic module. Optionally, the second telescopic member can be a telescopic cylinder. This application uses a second telescopic member protruding from the support frame 100 to block and limit the photovoltaic module. After repair is completed, the second telescopic member retracts to release the limitation on the photovoltaic module, thereby completing the unloading of the photovoltaic module.
[0041] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, at least one buffer 130 is also provided on the support frame 100. The buffer is used to provide cushioning for the photovoltaic module. For example, the buffer 130 is used to slow down the fall of the photovoltaic module on the support frame 100. Optionally, the buffer 130 can be an elastic body, such as a support plate provided with a spring. This application utilizes the buffer 130 to avoid problems such as damage caused by the frame and support frame 100 due to excessive fall speed of the photovoltaic module during adjustment.
[0042] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the buffer 130 includes a support plate 131, an elastic element (not shown), and at least one auxiliary wheel 132. The auxiliary wheel 132 is movably mounted on the support plate 131 and is used to swing around the support plate 131 to support the photovoltaic module. The elastic element is mounted on the support plate 131 and connected to the auxiliary wheel 132, and is used to slow down the swing of the auxiliary wheel 132 around the support plate 131. This application utilizes the rotation of the auxiliary wheel 132 to reduce friction with the photovoltaic module and avoid contact damage. Furthermore, during the downward pressure of the photovoltaic module, the auxiliary wheel 132 can swing slowly under the action of the elastic element, preventing the photovoltaic module from falling directly and causing impact damage. When the photovoltaic module falls to the position of the support plate 131, the support plate 131 prevents the photovoltaic module from falling further. In addition, after the photovoltaic module has been repaired, the auxiliary wheel 132 returns to its initial position under the action of the elastic element to support and repair the next photovoltaic module.
[0043] In some embodiments, a third telescopic member 140 is further provided on the support frame 100. The third telescopic member 140 is connected to the buffer 130. The third telescopic member 140 is used to adjust the relative distance between the buffer 130 and the support frame 100. This application adjusts the position of the buffer 130 by using the third telescopic member 140, thereby adjusting the height of the photovoltaic module for different requirements.
[0044] In some embodiments, a protective layer (not shown in the figure) is provided on the side of the support frame 100 that contacts the photovoltaic module. This application provides a protective layer on the part of the support frame 100 that contacts the photovoltaic module, such as a rubber pad, to prevent the support frame 100 from scratching the frame and glass of the photovoltaic module.
[0045] In some implementations, the repair device also includes a lifter. The lifter is connected to the support frame 100. The lifter is used to adjust the position of the support frame 100. This application adjusts the height of the support frame 100 by providing a lifter, thereby adapting to the requirements of different production lines and improving the space utilization rate in the workshop. Moreover, raising the support frame 100 facilitates the maintenance of the repair device.
[0046] In some embodiments, the suction member 212 may be a suction cup. Optionally, an anti-marking layer is provided on the side of the suction cup near the photovoltaic module to prevent the suction cup from leaving marks on the glass of the photovoltaic module.
[0047] It is understood that the adsorption element 212 is connected to a negative pressure device (not shown in the figure), which provides adsorption force to the adsorption element 212.
[0048] Exemplarily, a method for repairing gaps in photovoltaic modules using the aforementioned repair device is provided, comprising the following steps:
[0049] S1. The photovoltaic module, after being assembled with the glued frame and the battery cell laminate, is transported to the support frame 100. The photovoltaic module is slowly lowered under the action of the buffer 130 to keep the photovoltaic module horizontal and to limit the photovoltaic module using the limiting member 120.
[0050] S2. The adsorption component 212 is used to adsorb the cell laminate in the photovoltaic module. After adsorption is completed, the first telescopic component drives the adsorption component 212 to move, so as to adjust the relative height of the frame and the cell laminate, so that the frame and the cell laminate reach the preset relative height requirement. After maintaining this for a period of time, the adsorption of the adsorption component 212 is canceled, and the limitation on the photovoltaic module is removed, thus completing the repair of the photovoltaic module.
[0051] Through the above embodiments, this application utilizes the support frame 100 to support the frame of the photovoltaic module and keep the frame in a horizontal state. Furthermore, the adsorption member 212 is used to adsorb the cell laminate in the assembled photovoltaic module to keep the cell laminate horizontal, and the height of the cell laminate is adjusted by the adjustment member 211, thereby correcting the error between the frame and the cell laminate during the assembly process, reducing the gap between the cell laminate and the frame, and improving the yield rate.
[0052] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0053] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this application should be determined by the appended claims.
