[0002] Photovoltaic modules refer to solar cell modules. Solar cell modules are composed of high-efficiency crystalline silicon solar cells, ultra-white textured tempered glass, EVA, transparent TPT backsheet, and aluminum alloy frame. They have the characteristics of long service life and strong mechanical pressure resistance. Silicone is used for sealing and connection in the production process of photovoltaic modules, so a curing box is needed to cure the silicone raw material.

[0003] Silicone material is placed in a silicone container and then placed inside a curing chamber. The curing chamber uses temperature and humidity regulators to control the curing temperature and humidity, ensuring optimal curing of the silicone material. The silicone container can be moved in and out of the curing chamber manually or automatically. Manual methods require manual opening and closing of the door, while automatic methods use a controller to operate the electrically driven door. Manual methods are highly dependent on human intervention, while automatic methods have higher manufacturing costs.

[0004] To address this, a silicone curing device for photovoltaic module production is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0030] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0031] Reference Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a silicone curing device for photovoltaic module production, comprising:

[0032] A support base plate 1 is provided, and a belt transmission assembly 3 is provided on the support base plate 1. A limiting component for limiting the silicone placement groove 11 is provided on the belt of the belt transmission assembly 3.

[0033] The curing box 4 has an opening at the bottom and is fixed to the top of the supporting base plate 1. The bottom of the opposite two side walls of the curing box 4 are respectively provided with inlets and outlets, and the belt in the belt conveyor assembly 3 passes through the bottom of the two inlets and outlets.

[0034] Two sets of opening and closing doors are respectively set at the two entrances and exits. The opening and closing doors include two blocking doors 5. The opposite sides of the two blocking doors 5 are rotatably connected to the side walls of the entrances and exits. A spring return assembly is provided on the blocking doors 5.

[0035] The top block 9 is fixed to the belt of the belt conveyor assembly 3. The top block 9 is located at the front end of the limiting assembly. The front end of the top block 9 has two top arc surfaces 10 arranged in a "figure-eight" shape. The side of the blocking door 5 opposite to the top arc surface 10 is an arc surface 6. The two arc surfaces 6 are arranged in a "figure-eight" shape and are adapted to the two top arc surfaces 10.

[0036] A temperature controller 14 and a humidity controller 15 are fixedly connected to the top of the curing chamber 4, and a viewing window 16 is fixedly connected to one side of the curing chamber 4.

[0037] The temperature controller 14 consists of a temperature sensor, a controller, and an actuator. The temperature sensor detects the ambient temperature and transmits the data to the controller. The controller processes and analyzes the sensor signal according to a preset temperature range and heats or cools the device through the actuator (including heating and cooling devices) (the specifics are existing technology and will not be described in detail here).

[0038] The humidity controller 15 consists of a humidity sensor, a controller, and an actuator. The humidity sensor is responsible for detecting the humidity in the environment and transmitting the data to the controller. The controller processes and analyzes the sensor signal according to the preset humidity range and adjusts the ambient humidity through the actuator (such as a fan or humidifier) ​​until the humidity returns to the ideal range (the specifics are existing technology and will not be described in detail here).

[0039] In use, the silicone placement slot 11 is placed on the belt of the belt conveyor assembly 3 and limited by the limiting component. The belt conveyor assembly 3 conveys it. Since the silicone placement slot 11 is provided with a top block 9 at the front end, during the conveying process, the two top arc surfaces 10 of the front end of the top block 9, which are arranged in a "V-shape", push open the two arc surfaces 6 of the two blocking doors 5, which are arranged in a "V-shape", and reset by the spring reset component, so as to realize the automatic opening and closing of the door, so that the silicone placement slot 11 can pass smoothly through the two blocking doors 5, realizing the feeding and feeding of the silicone placement slot 11.

[0040] In some alternative embodiments, the two blocking doors 5 at the entrance and exit are in contact with each other on opposite sides, and the two blocking doors 5 on opposite sides are in contact with the two side walls of the entrance and exit respectively. The opposite side of the two blocking doors 5 is a semi-circular arc surface. The rotation axis of the blocking door 5 coincides with the axis of the semi-circular arc surface. The top of the belt of the belt conveyor assembly 3 is in contact with the bottom of the blocking door 5.

[0041] By using the semi-circular arc surface on the barrier door 5, the semi-circular arc surface remains in close contact with the entrance / exit during the rotation of the barrier door 5.

[0042] In some alternative embodiments, the spring reset assembly includes a rotating rod 7 fixed to the top of the shielding door 5. The axis of the rotating rod 7 coincides with the axis of the semi-circular arc surface on the shielding door 5. The rotating rod 7 is rotatably connected to the curing box 4. The top of the rotating rod 7 extends through the curing box 4 and out of the top of the curing box 4. A torsion spring 8 is sleeved on one end of the rotating rod 7 that extends out of the curing box 4. The two ends of the torsion spring 8 are fixed to the top of the rotating rod 7 and the outer top wall of the curing box 4, respectively.

[0043] When the top block 9 pushes open the shielding door 5, the shielding door 5 rotates around the axis of the rotating rod 7, causing the rotating rod 7 to rotate. The torsion spring 8 twists and stores force. When the silicone placement slot 11 passes through the shielding door 5, the shielding door 5 loses external force and is driven to return to its original position under the action of the torsion spring 8. By using the cooperation of the rotating rod 7 and the torsion spring 8, the shielding door 5 can automatically close when it is no longer under pressure, avoiding the impact of prolonged opening of the shielding door 5 on the temperature and humidity inside the curing chamber 4.

[0044] A baffle (not shown in the figure) is fixed to the inner top wall of the entrance and exit. The baffle is located on the side of the shield door 5 where the arc surface 6 is provided. When the two shield doors 5 are closed, the baffle contacts the shield door 5. When the shield door 5 is rotated and closed under the action of the torsion spring 8, the baffle limits the shield door 5.

[0045] Furthermore, magnetic strips are fixed to the side of the barrier strip opposite to the blocking door 5. When the blocking door 5 rotates back to reset and closes, the two magnetic strips attract each other, preventing the blocking door 5 from rotating back and forth, and allowing the two blocking doors 5 to close and reset quickly.

[0046] In some alternative embodiments, a slot 2 is provided on the top of the support base plate 1, and the belt transmission assembly 3 is disposed in the slot 2, with the top of the belt in the belt transmission assembly 3 being flush with the top of the support base plate 1.

[0047] Furthermore, the belt transmission assembly 3 includes two rotating rollers (i.e., pulleys) rotatably connected to the slot 2. A belt is fitted onto the two rotating rollers, and the two rotating rollers are connected by belt drive. A motor is fixedly connected to one side of the support base plate 1, and one of the rotating rollers is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor. The rotating rollers are driven to rotate by the motor, thereby driving the belt transmission.

[0048] A support plate is fixedly connected in the slot 2. The support plate is located between the two rotating rollers and passes through the annular belt. The support plate is supported below the upper layer of the annular belt to provide support for the belt.

[0049] In some optional embodiments, the limiting component includes a rear limiting mechanism 12 and two side limiting mechanisms 13, both of which are located at the rear end of the top block 9. The rear limiting mechanism 12, the top block 9, and the two side limiting mechanisms 13 together form a limiting space that is adapted to the shape of the silicone placement groove 11.

[0050] The position of the silicone placement groove 11 can be limited by the cooperation between the rear limiting mechanism 12, the side limiting mechanism 13 and the top block 9, so as to prevent the silicone from spilling out due to the random movement of the silicone placement groove 11.

[0051] In some alternative embodiments, the rear limiting mechanism 12 includes a rear limiting baffle 1201 and a rear top plate 1203. The bottom of the rear limiting baffle 1201 is fixedly connected to the top of the belt on the belt transmission assembly 3. The rear top plate 1203 is located between the rear limiting baffle 1201 and the top block 9. A plurality of rear buffer springs 1202 are fixedly connected between the rear top plate 1203 and the rear limiting baffle 1201.

[0052] In some alternative embodiments, the side limiting mechanism 13 includes multiple sets of side limiting baffles 1301 and side top plates 1303. The side top plate 1303 is located between the side limiting baffles 1301 and the silicone placement groove 11. The side limiting baffles 1301 are fixedly connected to the top of the belt on the belt transmission assembly 3. Multiple side buffer springs 1302 are fixedly connected between the side top plate 1303 and the side limiting baffles 1301.

[0053] In some alternative embodiments, the rear top plate 1203 has a placement arc surface 1204 on the outer periphery of the side wall near the silicone placement groove 11, and the rear limiting baffle 1201 has an anti-collision arc surface 1205 on the outer periphery of the side wall near the rear top plate 1203.

[0054] The side top plate 1303 has a second placement arc surface 1304 on the outer periphery of the side wall near the silicone placement groove 11, and the side limiting baffle 1301 has a second anti-collision arc surface 1305 on the outer periphery of the side wall away from the side top plate 1303.

[0055] The purpose of placing the second curved surface 1304 and the first curved surface 1204 is to guide the silicone placement groove 11 when it is placed, and to facilitate the limiting and clamping of the silicone placement groove 11. The purpose of the first anti-collision curved surface 1205 and the second anti-collision curved surface 1305 is to reduce the impact when in contact with the curved surface 6.

[0056] In use, the silicone placement tank 11 containing silicone raw material is first placed between the rear limiting mechanism 12, the two side limiting mechanisms 13, and the top block 9. During the process, the placement of the first arc surface 1204 and the second arc surface 1304 facilitates the placement of the silicone placement tank 11. By activating the belt transmission assembly 3, the top block 9 can be moved to the right, which allows the top arc surface 10 to push open the arc surface 6, thus sending the silicone placement tank 11 into the curing chamber 4. The arc surface 6 will not be impacted and damaged when it comes into contact with the second anti-collision arc surface 1305, the placement arc surface 1204, or the anti-collision arc surface 1205. When the silicone placement tank 11 moves into or out of the curing chamber 4, the torsion of the torsion spring 8 can drive the shielding door 5 to reset, thereby achieving automatic sealing of the curing chamber 4 and preventing the temperature and humidity inside the curing chamber 4 from being affected.

[0057] This application enables the sealing door to open and close automatically using only a conveyor belt when silicone material is fed into the curing chamber, without the need for an additional drive mechanism. The opening and closing are completed in a timely manner as the silicone placement tank 11 is fed in and out, resulting in a high degree of synchronization during opening and closing.

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation.
