Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of solar cell manufacturing, specifically a rotating device for detecting solar cells using a camera. Background Technology
[0002] In the production process of solar cells, the cells need to be housed in baskets, and then an external transfer mechanism is used to remove the silicon wafers from the baskets. Since the front of the basket serves as the inlet, i.e., the channel for the solar cells to enter and exit the basket, other mechanisms, such as transfer robots, are usually located at the corresponding position of the inlet. Therefore, in existing technology, a camera is generally placed on the back of the basket to inspect the solar cells inside. This is because there are also support columns on the back of the basket (such as...). Figure 3 When the camera takes a picture of the battery cells from the back of the flower basket, the side of the battery cells and the corresponding position of the support column will be blocked by the support column, which will limit the camera's shooting angle.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a device for detecting rotation of a battery cell camera. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This utility model provides a rotating device for detecting battery cells using a camera, which effectively solves the problem of limited viewing angle for photographing battery cells in existing flower baskets.

[0010] Furthermore, the support includes a first frame and a second frame symmetrically arranged around the center of the rotating platform, and the lower end face of the mounting plate is fixedly connected to both the first frame and the second frame.

[0017] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0018] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, an embodiment of this application provides a rotating device for detecting battery cells using a camera, including a camera detection mechanism 2 and a rotating feeding mechanism 1 disposed on one side of the camera detection mechanism 2. The rotating feeding mechanism 1 includes a base 11, a rotating platform 12 disposed on the base 11, a support seat 13 disposed on the rotating platform 12, a basket 14 disposed on the support seat 13, and a side-emitting light source 15 disposed on the side of the support seat 13. The basket 14 and the side-emitting light source 15 rotate synchronously under the drive of the rotating platform 12.
[0019] In actual use, the silicon wafers are supported by the basket 14 in the rotating feeding mechanism 1. When it is necessary to take pictures and scan the side of the silicon wafer, the rotating platform 12 drives the support seat 13 to rotate 90°, so that the basket 14 and the side light source 15 rotate synchronously. The light source illuminates the silicon wafers 100 in the basket 14, so that the silicon wafers located on the side of the feed port of the basket 14 are taken pictures and detected by the camera detection mechanism 2.
[0020] In the above design, by setting up a rotating platform 12, the flower basket 14 and the light source rotate synchronously, so that the camera detection mechanism 2 can take pictures of the battery cell 100 from the material port side of the flower basket 14, reducing the interference of the flower basket 14 support column 142 on the picture taking and improving the detection accuracy of the side of the battery silicon wafer.
[0021] Specifically: such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the support base 13 includes a bracket 131 disposed on the mounting surface of the rotating platform 12, a mounting plate 132 disposed on the upper end surface of the bracket 131, and a plurality of positioning blocks 133 disposed on the mounting plate 132. The plurality of positioning blocks 133 are distributed on the four sides of the mounting plate 132, and the plurality of positioning blocks 133 and the mounting plate 132 together form a limiting area for mounting the flower basket 14.
[0022] In actual use, the flower basket 14 with battery 100 is placed on the support seat 13 by an external lifting mechanism. The four sides of the flower basket 14 are limited by several positioning blocks 133, and the bottom of the flower basket 14 is supported by the mounting plate 132.
[0023] In the above design, the structural design of the support base 13 facilitates the receiving and fixing of the flower basket 14.
[0024] Specifically: such as Figure 2 As shown, the camera detection mechanism 2 includes a fixed base 21 fixedly mounted on one side of the base 11, a linear module 22 mounted on the fixed base 21 along the Z-axis, a lifting frame 23 fixedly mounted on the output end of the linear module 22, and a plurality of CCD cameras 24 mounted on the lifting frame 23. The plurality of CCD cameras 24 are arranged horizontally at equal intervals along the Y-axis.
[0025] In actual use, the battery cells 100 in the flower basket 14 are set in layers. When the CCD takes a picture of the battery cells 100 at a certain height distance at one of the heights, the lifting frame 23 is moved synchronously by the lifting drive of the linear module 22, changing the shooting area of the CCD camera 24, until all the battery cells 100 in the flower basket 14 are photographed and detected.
[0026] In the above design, the structural design and specific implementation of the camera detection mechanism 2 can effectively enable rapid photography of all battery cells 100 in the flower basket 14.
[0027] Specifically: such as Figure 3 As shown, the flower basket 14 includes a lower plate 141, an upper plate 144, a plurality of support columns 142 connecting the lower plate 141 and the upper plate 144, and a plurality of upright columns 143 connecting the upper plate 144 and the lower plate 141. The plurality of upright columns 143 form a plurality of receiving areas arranged along the Y direction. The upright columns 143 are provided with a plurality of support grooves for supporting the side of the battery cell 100 at equal intervals along the axial direction. The plurality of receiving areas correspond one-to-one with the plurality of CCD cameras 24.
[0028] In actual use, the side of the battery cell 100 is supported by the support groove.
[0029] In the above design, the structural design and specific implementation of the flower basket 14 can effectively support and fix the battery cell 100.
[0030] Specifically: such as Figure 4 As shown, the bracket 131 includes a first frame 1311 and a second frame 1312 symmetrically arranged around the center of the rotating platform 12, and the lower end face of the mounting plate 132 is fixedly connected to both the first frame 1311 and the second frame 1312.
[0031] In actual use, when it is necessary to place the flower basket 14, the external lifting mechanism is used to place the flower basket 14 so that the mounting plate 132 supports the lower end of the flower basket 14.
[0032] In the above design, the structural design and specific implementation of the support 131 can effectively reduce the weight of the support 131.
[0033] In further detail, it should be understood that the above description is only a specific embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
