Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic module technology, specifically to a positioning and straightening module, production equipment, and photovoltaic production system. Background Technology

[0002] Under the global trend of energy transition, the photovoltaic field has developed rapidly in recent years and has become a core component of the renewable energy sector.

[0003] Despite significant progress in photovoltaic technology, numerous challenges remain. In the production of photovoltaic modules, even with junction boxes of the same performance, different manufacturers use molds to produce boxes with varying lead wire perforation spacing. This necessitates disassembling and replacing the corresponding positioning mechanism each time a different junction box model is used. This replacement is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the need to match positioning mechanisms for each model increases production costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a positioning and straightening component, production equipment and photovoltaic production system to solve the problem that the straightening component cannot be matched with multiple types of junction boxes, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive and increases production costs.

[0005] In a first aspect, this utility model provides a positioning and straightening component, having a first direction, comprising: a support mechanism, an adjustment mechanism, and a positioning mechanism; the adjustment mechanism is connected to the support mechanism, the adjustment mechanism includes grippers, two grippers are provided, the two grippers are spaced apart, and the two grippers are adapted to move relative to each other; the positioning mechanism includes positioning elements, the positioning elements are slidably disposed on the support mechanism, two positioning elements are provided along the first direction and disposed between the two grippers, and along the first direction, the distance between one positioning element and its adjacent gripper is equal to the distance between the other positioning element and its adjacent gripper.

[0006] Beneficial effects: By adjusting the positions of the two positioning components, the same device can be adapted to different models of junction boxes, improving the compatibility of the device. There is no need to disassemble and replace the positioning mechanism, reducing assembly and disassembly work and lowering production costs. By limiting the distance between each positioning component and its adjacent gripper to be equal, it is easier to control the movement of the gripper when clamping and straightening, simplifying the adjustment difficulty.

[0007] In one optional embodiment, the positioning mechanism further includes a fastener, the positioning element having a fixing hole, the fastener passing through the fixing hole and fastened to the support mechanism.

[0008] Beneficial effects: Fasteners firmly fix the positioning parts to the support mechanism, preventing displacement of the positioning parts due to vibration, external impact, or other factors during equipment operation. This ensures that the parts to be aligned are always in a precise positioning state, thereby improving the consistency and stability of product production, reducing product quality defects caused by loose positioning parts, and increasing the product qualification rate.

[0009] In one optional embodiment, the positioning member includes a connecting portion and a main body portion, the connecting portion being connected to the main body portion and slidably disposed on the support mechanism, and the main body portion being adapted to abut against the member to be aligned.

[0010] Beneficial effects: The connection between the connecting part and the main body forms a positioning component, which allows for the replacement and maintenance of only a single structure during the maintenance process, reducing costs.

[0011] In one optional embodiment, the adjustment mechanism further includes a drive structure, at least one of which is provided. The drive structure is disposed on the support mechanism, and the drive end of the drive structure is connected to the gripper via a transmission.

[0012] Beneficial effects: The drive structure drives the grippers to move relative to each other, replacing manual operation, which greatly improves the gripper's action efficiency and response speed, enabling rapid clamping and releasing of the parts to be aligned, effectively increasing the production cycle, meeting the needs of large-scale production in the photovoltaic industry, and reducing labor costs and human error.

[0013] In one optional embodiment, the drive structure includes an air compressor and a pneumatic control valve, the air compressor being connected to the pneumatic control valve, and the piston rod of the pneumatic control valve being drivenly connected to the gripper.

[0014] Beneficial effects: Using compressed air generated by an air compressor as a power source, the pneumatic system has the advantages of simple structure, low cost and convenient maintenance compared with the traditional electric drive method; the air pressure control valve can accurately adjust the air pressure input to the cylinder, thereby accurately controlling the clamping force of the gripper, which can not only ensure that the part to be straightened can be adjusted and straightened, but also avoid damage to the product due to excessive clamping force.

[0015] In one optional implementation, two drive structures are provided, with each drive structure corresponding to one of the two grippers.

[0016] Beneficial effects: Two independent drive structures control two grippers respectively, enabling independent and precise control of the gripper movement. This avoids problems such as asynchronous movement and uneven clamping force that may occur when a single drive structure drives two grippers, further improving the accuracy and stability of positioning and alignment, and ensuring product quality.

[0017] In one optional embodiment, the support mechanism includes a support body and a slide rail, the slide rail being connected to the support body, the adjustment mechanism being connected to the support body, and the positioning element being slidably disposed on the slide rail.

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0027] The following is combined Figures 1 to 2 The following describes embodiments of the present invention.

[0028] According to an embodiment of the present invention, in a first aspect, a positioning and straightening assembly is provided, having a first direction, comprising: a support mechanism 10, an adjustment mechanism 20, and a positioning mechanism 30; the adjustment mechanism 20 is connected to the support mechanism 10, and the adjustment mechanism 20 includes two grippers 21, which are spaced apart and adapted to move relative to each other; the positioning mechanism 30 includes a positioning element 31, which is slidably disposed on the support mechanism 10, and two positioning elements 31 are disposed along the first direction and between the two grippers 21, wherein along the first direction, the distance between one positioning element 31 and its adjacent gripper 21 is equal to the distance between the other positioning element 31 and its adjacent gripper 21.

[0029] By applying the positioning and straightening component of this embodiment, the positions of the two positioning components 31 can be adjusted so that the same device can be adapted to different models of junction boxes, improving the compatibility of the device. There is no need to disassemble and replace the positioning mechanism 30, reducing the work of assembly and disassembly and lowering production costs. By limiting the distance between each positioning component 31 and its adjacent gripper 21 to be equal, it is convenient to control the movement of the gripper 21 when clamping and straightening, simplifying the adjustment difficulty.

[0030] It should be noted that during the production of photovoltaic modules, even with the same performance, different manufacturers use molds to produce junction boxes with different lead wire perforation spacings. This means that each time a different model of junction box is switched, the corresponding matching positioning mechanism 30 needs to be disassembled and replaced. This replacement is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is necessary to match the positioning mechanism 30 for each model, which increases production costs.

[0031] Therefore, in this embodiment, the two positioning components 31 are used to adapt to multiple different types of junction boxes, eliminating the need to disassemble and replace the positioning mechanism 30, reducing assembly and disassembly work, and lowering production costs.

[0032] It should be noted that, as Figure 1 As shown, for ease of description, Figure 1 The left-hand gripper 21 is considered the first gripper, and the right-hand gripper 21 is considered the second gripper. The left-hand positioning element 31 is the first positioning element, and the right-hand positioning element 31 is the second positioning element. In this embodiment, along the first direction, the distance between the first gripper and the first positioning element is equal to the distance between the second gripper and the second positioning element, which facilitates the adjustment and control of the movement of the gripper 21. It is understood that when the distance between the first gripper and the first positioning element is not equal to the distance between the second gripper and the second positioning element, it is necessary to control the movement distance of the first gripper and the second gripper separately in order to accurately control the adjustment and straightening of the part to be straightened.

[0033] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the positioning mechanism 30 also includes a fastener 32. The positioning member 31 has a fixing hole, and the fastener 32 passes through the fixing hole and is fastened to the support mechanism 10.

[0034] Specifically, the fastener 32 is a bolt, which passes through the fixing hole and is tightened onto the support mechanism 10.

[0035] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the positioning and straightening assembly is the structure before adjustment. Before adjusting and straightening the component to be straightened, first loosen the fastener 32, and then adjust the positioning component 31 to the corresponding position (e.g., Figure 2 (As shown), finally tighten the fastener 32 to fix the positioning piece 31.

[0036] It is worth noting that the fastener 32 firmly fixes the positioning part 31 to the support mechanism 10, preventing the positioning part 31 from shifting due to vibration, external impact or other factors during equipment operation. This ensures that the part to be aligned is always in a precise positioning state, thereby improving the consistency and stability of product production, reducing product quality defects caused by loosening of the positioning part 31, and increasing the product qualification rate.

[0037] It should be noted that in other alternative embodiments, the positioning element 31 can also be locked in other ways, such as by ratchet-pawl self-locking or elastic element self-locking, etc.

[0038] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown, the positioning member 31 includes a connecting part 311 and a main body part 312. The connecting part 311 is connected to the main body part 312. The connecting part 311 is slidably disposed on the support mechanism 10, and the main body part 312 is adapted to abut against the member to be aligned.

[0039] Specifically, the connecting part 311 is detachably connected to the main body part 312.

[0040] It is worth noting that the connecting part 311 and the main body part 312 are connected to form the positioning part 31, which allows for the replacement and maintenance of only a single structure during the maintenance process, reducing costs.

[0041] It should be noted that in other alternative embodiments, the positioning element 31 can also be integrally formed.

[0042] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the adjustment mechanism 20 also includes a drive structure. At least one drive structure is provided. The drive structure is mounted on the support mechanism 10, and the drive end of the drive structure is connected to the gripper 21 for transmission.

[0043] It is worth noting that the drive structure drives the gripper 21 to move relative to each other, replacing manual operation, which greatly improves the action efficiency and response speed of the gripper 21, realizes rapid clamping and release of the parts to be straightened, effectively improves the production cycle, meets the needs of large-scale production in the photovoltaic industry, and reduces labor costs and human operation errors.

[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, there are two drive structures, and each drive structure corresponds to one of the two grippers 21.

[0045] It should be noted that in other alternative embodiments, there may be only one drive structure, with two drive ends that can move relative to each other, thereby achieving relative clamping of the two grippers 21. However, having one drive structure control both drive ends simultaneously is not conducive to later maintenance and increases the difficulty of repair.

[0046] It is worth noting that the two independent drive structures control the two grippers 21 respectively, which can achieve independent and precise control of the movement of the grippers 21. This avoids problems such as asynchronous movement and uneven clamping force that may occur when the two grippers 21 are driven by a single drive structure, further improving the accuracy and stability of positioning and alignment, and ensuring product quality.

[0047] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the drive structure includes an air compressor and a pneumatic control valve 22. The air compressor is connected to the pneumatic control valve 22, and the piston rod of the pneumatic control valve 22 is connected to the gripper 21 in a transmission manner.

[0048] It is worth noting that, compared with the traditional electric drive method, the pneumatic system, which uses compressed air generated by the air compressor as a power source, has the advantages of simple structure, low cost and convenient maintenance. The air pressure control valve 22 can accurately adjust the air pressure of the input cylinder, thereby accurately controlling the clamping force of the gripper 21, which can not only ensure that the part to be straightened can be adjusted and straightened, but also avoid damage to the product due to excessive clamping force.

[0049] In other alternative implementations, the drive structure may also take the form of a hydraulic source and a hydraulic cylinder.

[0050] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support mechanism 10 includes a support body 11 and a slide rail 12. The slide rail 12 is connected to the support body 11, the adjustment mechanism 20 is connected to the support body 11, and the positioning element 31 is slidably disposed on the slide rail 12.

[0051] Specifically, the support body 11 and the slide rail 12 are detachably connected so that damaged structures can be replaced individually during maintenance, thereby reducing maintenance costs.

[0052] Of course, in other alternative embodiments, the support body 11 and the slide rail 12 can also be integrally cast.

[0053] In this embodiment, the positioning element 31 is an aluminum alloy positioning element.

[0054] It should be noted that in other alternative embodiments, the positioning element 31 may also be a steel positioning element or made of other sturdy and durable materials.

[0055] Using the positioning and straightening component of this embodiment, firstly, the positioning and straightening component is installed at the feeding station. Then, the distance between the two positioning components 31 is adjusted according to the lead wire spacing of the corresponding wire box. After that, the fastener 32 is tightened, and air pressure is input to the air pressure control valve 22 through the air compressor to control the gripper 21 to clamp and adjust the straightening. Finally, the adjustment of the component to be straightened is completed, and the next process is carried out on it.

[0056] According to an embodiment of the present invention, in a second aspect, a production device is provided, including the above-described positioning and straightening component.

[0057] According to an embodiment of the present invention, in a third aspect, a photovoltaic production system is provided, including the production equipment described above.

[0058] Although embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations all fall within the scope defined by the present invention.
