Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of typesetting machine technology, specifically to an automatic typesetting machine. Background Technology
[0002] In the current booming photovoltaic industry, photovoltaic modules, as key components for the efficient conversion of solar energy into electricity, require precise and efficient production processes. They need to be arranged in a precise layout within the module to ensure full absorption of light energy and stable output of electricity. However, in current production practices, traditional photovoltaic cell arrangement still heavily relies on manual labor.
[0003] In manual layout, workers must rely on visual observation and manual operation to place the battery strings one by one into predetermined positions. This process not only consumes a lot of manpower and time, resulting in consistently low production efficiency and difficulty in meeting the ever-increasing market demand, but also makes layout errors prone to occur, such as reversing the positive and negative polarity of the battery strings or arranging them in a disordered order. Once these problems occur, they will significantly reduce the performance of the photovoltaic modules. Utility Model Content

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0019] Example:
[0020] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an automatic typesetting machine includes a body 1. A conveying mechanism 2 is mounted on the top of the body 1. The conveying mechanism 2 includes two belt conveyors 21 symmetrically fixedly mounted on the top of the body 1. A synchronous shaft 22 is fixedly connected between the input shafts of the two belt conveyors 21. A drive motor 23 is fixedly mounted on one side of either belt conveyor 21, and the output shaft of the drive motor 23 is fixedly connected to the input shaft of the corresponding belt conveyor 21. In use, the rotation of the drive motor 23, through the synchronous shaft 22, can simultaneously drive the two belt conveyors 21 to rotate, facilitating synchronous conveying of both sides of the glass and preventing misalignment.
[0021] Mounting blocks 3 are fixedly connected to the top four sides of the body 1. A battery string mounting module 4 is installed between the tops of the four mounting blocks 3. The battery string mounting module 4 includes two opposing first slide rails 41. The first slide rails 41 are fixedly installed on the tops of the two mounting blocks 3 on one side. Two second slide rails 42 are symmetrically slidably connected between the tops of the two first slide rails 41. Mounting plates 43 are slidably connected to the upper surfaces of the second slide rails 42. The battery string mounting mechanism 5 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the corresponding mounting plate 43. The second slide rails 42 and the mounting plates 43 are both driven by linear motors. The operation of the corresponding linear motors can drive the corresponding second slide rails 42 and mounting plates 43 to move, which in turn can drive the battery string mounting mechanisms 5 on both sides to move respectively. Battery string arrangement operations can be performed on both sides of the glass at the same time, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0022] Battery string mounting modules 4 are equipped with battery string mounting mechanisms 5 on both sides. Each battery string mounting mechanism 5 includes two brackets 51 symmetrically fixedly mounted on one side of a mounting plate 43. An electric push rod 52 is fixedly mounted on one side of the bottom of each bracket 51. A connecting frame 53 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the electric push rod 52, and a vacuum suction cup 54 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the connecting frame 53. The operation of the electric push rod 52 can drive the vacuum suction cup 54 to rise and fall, thereby facilitating the adsorption and placement of the battery strings.
[0023] Both sides of the top of the machine body 1 are equipped with battery string visual positioning mechanisms 6, which cooperate with the battery string mounting mechanism 5. The battery string visual positioning mechanism 6 includes a vertical rod 61 fixedly connected to the top of the machine body 1. A mounting sleeve 62 is sleeved on the top of the vertical rod 61. A horizontal rod 63 is inserted into the inside of the mounting sleeve 62. The other end of the horizontal rod 63 is fixedly connected to an incoming material positioning visual camera 64. Both sides of the upper surface of the machine body 1 are fixedly installed with swing string correction positioning visual cameras 65. Both sides of the mounting sleeve 62 are fixed with bolts to facilitate the adjustment of the position of the incoming material positioning visual camera 64. The incoming material positioning visual camera 64 and the swing string correction positioning visual camera 65 facilitate the monitoring of the layout position, thereby improving the layout accuracy.
[0024] A housing 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the main body 1, and two control panels 8 are fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the housing 7. The two control panels 8 facilitate the setting of device parameters and the control of the device.
[0025] Working principle: When in use, the drive motor 23 rotates and drives two belt conveyors 21 to rotate simultaneously through the synchronous shaft 22, which facilitates synchronous conveying of both sides of the glass and avoids deviation.
[0026] The operation of the electric push rod 52 can drive the vacuum suction cup 54 to rise and fall, thereby facilitating the adsorption and placement of battery strings. The operation of the corresponding linear motor can drive the corresponding second slide rail 42 and mounting plate 43 to move, which in turn can drive the battery string mounting mechanism 5 on both sides to move. This allows for simultaneous battery string arrangement operations on both sides of the glass, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0027] Both sides of the mounting sleeve 62 are fixed with bolts, which facilitates the adjustment of the position of the incoming material positioning vision camera 64. The incoming material positioning vision camera 64 and the swing correction positioning vision camera 65 facilitate the monitoring of the layout position, thereby improving the layout accuracy.
