Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure belongs to the field of photovoltaic module outer packaging protection technology, specifically relating to an outer packaging protection tool for photovoltaic module packing. Background Technology

[0002] With the differentiation of battery sizes, the dimensions of module panels also vary. To optimize transportation costs, 40HQ containers need to be fully loaded. A 40HQ container, or 40-foot high cube container, is primarily used for international shipping and logistics. It has a larger volume and a special design than a standard 40-foot container. For the currently mass-produced 210*182mm photovoltaic modules, using 2390mm long pallets is the optimal loading solution for 40HQ containers. However, most 40HQ containers on the market have a protrusion on the rear door measuring approximately 220mm long, 40mm high, and 40mm wide. Using the aforementioned loading method would cause this protrusion to directly contact the outer packaging of the photovoltaic modules, potentially damaging the module's frame during transportation.

[0003] Currently, the solution is to attach foam to the corresponding protrusions on the outer packaging of photovoltaic modules. However, the foam is prone to breakage during transportation, which can still lead to damage to the photovoltaic modules.

[0004] Chinese patent application CN201920641985.4 discloses an elastic protective member for photovoltaic module frames, a photovoltaic module frame, and a photovoltaic module. The elastic protective member is formed into a U-shaped body, comprising an upper part and a lower part disposed opposite to each other, and a connecting part connecting the upper and lower parts. A protrusion is formed on the upper part of the U-shaped body. When a photovoltaic module frame including the elastic protective member of this embodiment is used in the fabrication of photovoltaic modules, it can prevent silicone from overflowing from both ends of the photovoltaic module frame, ensuring cleanliness on-site, and the load-bearing capacity of the resulting photovoltaic module is significantly improved.

[0005] Chinese patent application CN202110229848.1 discloses a protective device for a sealing structure between photovoltaic modules, including a first photovoltaic module and a second photovoltaic module. The first photovoltaic module is located directly above the second photovoltaic module. A sealing layer is provided between the first and second photovoltaic modules. Screws are fixedly installed at the four corners of the bottom of the first photovoltaic module, with the lower ends of the screws penetrating the second photovoltaic module. Threaded sleeves are threaded onto each screw. Support plates are fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the second photovoltaic module, and the support plates on both sides are symmetrically distributed. Strip plates are fixedly installed at the bottom of each support plate. Protective plates are fixedly installed at both ends of the first photovoltaic module. The protective plates on both sides are mirror images and are inclined downwards. A water-absorbing cotton layer is provided on the upper surface of each protective plate. By setting up the protective plates and the water-absorbing cotton layer in cooperation, the protective plates block sunlight and rainwater from directly entering the sealing layer, while the water-absorbing cotton layer absorbs some of the rainwater.

[0006] Chinese patent application CN202323659265.6 discloses a wiring protection device for a photovoltaic module junction box, comprising: a photovoltaic module junction box body, a base plate disposed below the photovoltaic module junction box body, a cover disposed above the photovoltaic module junction box body, a handle disposed at the front of the cover, a baffle disposed on the outer wall of the photovoltaic module junction box body, and sliders symmetrically disposed on both sides of the baffle; by providing elastic columns and springs at the bottom of the photovoltaic module junction box body, the elastic columns and springs can provide buffer protection for the photovoltaic module junction box body to avoid damage caused by collisions or drops; fixing plates one and two on the outer wall of the photovoltaic module junction box body can provide protection for the wiring connection points of the photovoltaic module junction box body to prevent dust and other substances from damaging the photovoltaic module junction box body.

[0007] It is evident that there is no existing protective tooling for packaging photovoltaic modules. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a protective tooling for packaging photovoltaic modules to isolate the bumps and effectively protect the photovoltaic modules from damage. Utility Model Content

[0008] The purpose of this disclosure is to provide a protective outer packaging fixture for photovoltaic modules, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background art. The protective outer packaging fixture for photovoltaic modules provided by this disclosure has the characteristics of isolating protrusions and effectively protecting the photovoltaic modules from damage.

[0009] To achieve the above objectives, this disclosure provides the following technical solution: a protective tooling for packaging photovoltaic modules, including a protective plate, and a fixing clamp for clamping the upper photovoltaic module and the lower photovoltaic module connected to one side of the protective plate.

[0010] Furthermore, in this disclosure, both the protective plate and the fixing clamp are made of galvanized steel sheet.

[0011] Furthermore, in this disclosure, the thickness of the protective plate is 1.5 ± 0.1 mm.

[0012] To further secure the protective panel to the outer packaging of the photovoltaic module and prevent the protective panel from shifting or falling off and losing its protective function, longitudinal strap grooves are provided on the upper and lower sides of the protective panel.

[0013] To further secure the protective panel to the outer packaging of the photovoltaic module and prevent the panel from shifting or falling off and losing its protective function, the upper and lower ends of the protective panel are provided with horizontal strap grooves.

[0014] To provide maximum protection for the lower photovoltaic modules and accommodate trays of varying heights, a fixing clamp is further positioned at the top third of the protective plate.

[0015] To provide cushioning and minimize damage to the photovoltaic modules, a protective pad is attached to the inner side of the protective plate. The protective pad can be a rubber pad or a foam pad.

[0016] To ensure a secure fixation effect and to provide some protection to the sides of the photovoltaic modules, the protective plate is further designed with a right-angled structure.

[0017] In order to effectively reduce the production cost and weight of the protective tooling disclosed herein, the protective plate and the fixing clamp are further provided with dense perforations.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this disclosure are:

[0019] 1. This disclosure achieves the fixation of the protective plate by clamping the fixing plate between the upper and lower photovoltaic modules. The protective plate, made of galvanized steel plate, isolates the protrusion on the rear door of the 40HQ container from the outer packaging of the photovoltaic modules, thereby effectively preventing damage to the photovoltaic modules during transportation.

[0020] 2. The protective plate disclosed herein has longitudinal strapping grooves on the upper and lower sides, which can be used to further fix the protective plate to the outer packaging of the photovoltaic module by passing plastic steel straps through the longitudinal strapping grooves, so as to prevent the protective plate from shifting or falling off and losing its isolation and protection function.

[0021] 3. The upper and lower ends of the protective plate of this invention are provided with transverse strap grooves. Plastic steel straps can be passed through the transverse strap grooves to further fix the protective plate to the outer packaging of the photovoltaic module, so as to prevent the protective plate from shifting or falling off and losing its isolation and protection function.

[0022] 4. The fixing clamp of this invention is located at the upper third of the protective plate. Since the height of the trays varies and the bottom of the upper photovoltaic module is the tray, setting the fixing clamp at the upper third of the protective plate can protect the lower photovoltaic module as much as possible, thereby adapting to trays with different heights.

[0023] 5. The inner side of the protective plate disclosed herein is connected to a protective pad, which is a rubber pad or a foam pad. The protective pad can provide a certain degree of cushioning, thereby maximizing the avoidance of damage to the photovoltaic module.

[0024] 6. The protective plate disclosed herein has a right-angled structure. On the one hand, the two sides of the right-angled protective plate can limit each other to ensure the fixing effect. On the other hand, it can also provide some protection for the sides of the photovoltaic module.

[0025] 7. The protective plate and the fixing clamp of this invention are respectively provided with dense perforations, which can effectively reduce the production cost and weight of the protective tooling of this invention. Attached Figure Description

[0036] By adopting the above technical solutions, such as Figure 3 As shown, this disclosure achieves the fixation of the protective plate 1 by clamping the fixing plate 4 between the upper photovoltaic module 6 and the lower photovoltaic module 7. The protective plate 1, made of galvanized steel plate, isolates the protrusion on the rear door of the 40HQ type container from the outer packaging of the photovoltaic module, thereby effectively preventing damage to the photovoltaic module during transportation.

[0039] For details, please refer to Figure 1 or Figure 2 The upper and lower ends of the protective plate 1 are respectively provided with longitudinal strap grooves 2. The length of the longitudinal strap groove 2 is greater than the width of the plastic steel strip, generally twice the width of the plastic steel strip. This allows the position of the plastic steel strip to be adjusted up and down according to the position of the protrusion, avoiding contact between the plastic steel strip and the protrusion, which could cause the plastic steel strip to break during transportation.

[0040] By adopting the above technical solution, the protective plate 1 can be further fixed to the outer packaging of the photovoltaic module by passing the plastic steel belt through the longitudinal belt groove 2, so as to prevent the protective plate 1 from shifting or falling off and losing its isolation and protection function.

[0056] By adopting the above technical solution and setting the protective pad 5, a certain degree of buffering can be achieved, thereby minimizing damage to the photovoltaic modules.

[0057] Example 7

[0058] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 This embodiment provides the following technical solution: a protective tooling for packaging photovoltaic modules, including a protective plate 1, the protective plate 1 having a length of 300mm and a width of 30mm, a fixing clamp 4 for clamping between the upper photovoltaic module 6 and the lower photovoltaic module 7 connected to one side of the protective plate 1, the fixing clamp 4 being welded to the protective plate 1, both the protective plate 1 and the fixing clamp 4 being made of galvanized steel plate, and the thickness of the protective plate 1 being 1.5mm.

[0059] For details, please refer to Figure 2 The protective plate 1 has a right-angled structure.

[0060] By adopting the above technical solution, on the one hand, the two sides of the right-angled protective plate 1 can limit each other to ensure the fixing effect, and on the other hand, it can also provide certain protection for the sides of the photovoltaic module.

[0061] Example 8

[0062] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 This embodiment provides the following technical solution: a protective tooling for packaging photovoltaic modules, including a protective plate 1, the protective plate 1 having a length of 300mm and a width of 30mm, a fixing clamp 4 for clamping between the upper photovoltaic module 6 and the lower photovoltaic module 7 connected to one side of the protective plate 1, the fixing clamp 4 being welded to the protective plate 1, both the protective plate 1 and the fixing clamp 4 being made of galvanized steel plate, and the thickness of the protective plate 1 being 1.5mm.

[0063] Specifically, the protective plate 1 and the fixing clamp 4 are respectively provided with dense perforations.

[0064] By adopting the above technical solution, the production cost and weight of the protective tooling disclosed herein can be effectively reduced.

[0065] The steps involved in this disclosure are as follows:

[0066] 1. After packing, use a forklift to lift the upper photovoltaic module 6 slightly upwards, and then insert the fixing clamp 4 between the upper photovoltaic module 6 and the lower photovoltaic module 7;

[0067] 2. After adjusting the position of the protective plate 1, lift the photovoltaic module 6 in the direction of the upper part, and then use plastic steel strips to pass through the longitudinal strip groove 2 and the transverse strip groove 3 to further fix the protective plate 1.

[0068] In summary, this disclosure secures the protective plate 1 by clamping the fixing plate 4 between the upper photovoltaic module 6 and the lower photovoltaic module 7. The galvanized steel protective plate 1 isolates the protrusion on the rear door of the 40HQ container from the outer packaging of the photovoltaic modules, effectively preventing damage to the photovoltaic modules during transportation. The protective plate 1 has longitudinal strapping grooves 2 at both its upper and lower ends, allowing plastic straps to pass through these grooves to further secure the protective plate 1 to the outer packaging of the photovoltaic modules, preventing displacement or falling and loss of its protective function. Similarly, the protective plate 1 has transverse strapping grooves 3 at both its upper and lower ends, allowing plastic straps to pass through these grooves to further secure the protective plate 1 to the outer packaging of the photovoltaic modules, preventing displacement or falling and loss of its protective function. The fixing clamp 4 of this disclosure is located at the upper third of the protective plate 1. Due to the varying heights of the trays, and the fact that the bottom of the upper photovoltaic module 6 is also a tray, placing the fixing clamp 4 at the upper third of the protective plate 1 provides maximum protection for the lower photovoltaic module 7, thus accommodating trays of different heights. A protective pad 5, which is either a rubber pad or a foam pad, is connected to the inner side of the protective plate 1. The protective pad 5 provides cushioning, maximizing the prevention of damage to the photovoltaic module. The protective plate 1 has a right-angled structure. On one hand, the two sides of the right-angled protective plate 1 can mutually limit each other, ensuring a secure fixation effect; on the other hand, it also provides some protection to the sides of the photovoltaic module. The protective plate 1 and the fixing clamp 4 are respectively provided with densely packed perforations, which effectively reduces the production cost and weight of the protective fixture.

[0069] Although embodiments of the present disclosure have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present disclosure, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
