DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] To make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0037] Photovoltaic systems, also known as photovoltaics, are facilities that utilize the photovoltaic effect of photovoltaic semiconductor materials to convert solar energy into direct current (DC) electricity. The core of a photovoltaic system is the solar panel. Currently, the main semiconductor materials used for power generation include monocrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon, amorphous silicon, and cadmium telluride. With the active promotion of renewable energy applications in various countries in recent years, the photovoltaic industry has developed rapidly. After manufacturing, photovoltaic panels need to be transported for assembly to the next production unit or directly to the sales unit.

[0038] Existing photovoltaic panel transport devices include a fixing assembly that uses fixed blocks to divide the box into multiple grids. The photovoltaic panels are stored in the grids. During transportation, the photovoltaic panels need to be fixed in the grids to prevent shaking and damage to the photovoltaic panels. At this time, the photovoltaic panels in each grid are clamped and fixed by adjusting the bolts on the box. In addition, when the transport device arrives at the designated transfer point, the bolts corresponding to each grid need to be manually adjusted to allow the photovoltaic panels to be removed from the grid. This structural setup requires constant and repeated adjustment of the fixing assembly, which reduces the transportation efficiency of the photovoltaic panels.

[0039] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the present application provides a photovoltaic module transport device, comprising a transport vehicle and a fixing assembly, wherein the transport vehicle includes a transport frame, the transport frame having a plurality of grilles arranged in a first direction and spaced apart in sequence, with each adjacent two grilles forming a receiving cavity for accommodating a photovoltaic panel; the fixing assembly includes a positioning frame and a first drive unit, the positioning frame including a body located lateral to the grilles, the body extending in the first direction, the body having two ends in the first direction slidably connected to the sidewalls of the transport frame along the height direction of the transport frame, the first drive unit including at least one first telescopic rod, the at least one first telescopic rod being disposed at one end of the transport frame in the first direction, the first telescopic rod being telescopically arranged in a second direction, the telescopic end of the first telescopic rod being connected to the body, the first telescopic rod being configured to drive the body to move in the second direction so that an end face of the body facing one side of the transport frame abuts against the photovoltaic panel; wherein the first direction is the length direction of the transport frame, and the second direction is the width direction of the transport frame. Through the mutual cooperation of the first drive unit and the positioning frame, the positioning frame can integrally fix all photovoltaic panels on the transport frame, simplifying the traditional adjustment process of fixing photovoltaic panels, thereby improving the transportation efficiency of the photovoltaic panels.

[0040] The contents of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings so that those skilled in the art can understand the contents of this application more clearly and in detail.

[0041] Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of the photovoltaic module transport equipment provided in an embodiment of the present application from a first perspective; Figure 2 is a structural schematic diagram of the photovoltaic module transport equipment provided in an embodiment of the present application from another perspective; Figure 3 is a structural schematic diagram of the photovoltaic module transport equipment provided in an embodiment of the present application from yet another perspective.

[0042] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the photovoltaic component transportation equipment 100 provided in this embodiment includes a transport vehicle 110 and a fixing component 120. The transport vehicle 110 includes a transport frame 1101. The transport frame 1101 is connected to the top surface of the transport vehicle 110 along the height direction, and the transport frame 1101 has a plurality of grids 1102. The plurality of grids 1102 are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the transport frame 1101, and a receiving cavity for accommodating the photovoltaic panel 130 is formed between each adjacent two grids 1102.

[0043] Among them, the transport cart 110 also includes a universal wheel 1104, a spring 1105 and a handle 1106. The universal wheel 1104 is connected to the bottom of the transport cart 110, the spring 1105 is connected between the universal wheel 1104 and the transport cart 110, and the spring 1105 is sleeved on the connecting shaft of the universal wheel 1104. The handle 1106 is connected to the end of the transport cart 110 along the length direction of the transport cart 110 to push the transport cart 110 to move.

[0044] The fixing assembly 120 in this embodiment includes a positioning frame 1201 and a first driving unit. The positioning frame 1201 includes a main body 1202 located on the side of the grid 1102. The main body 1202 extends along the first direction. The two ends of the main body 1202 along the first direction are slidably connected to the side walls of the transport frame 1101 along the height direction of the transport frame 1101. The first driving unit includes at least one first telescopic rod 1203. At least one first telescopic rod 1203 is arranged at one end of the transport frame 1101 along the first direction. The first telescopic rod 1203 is telescopically arranged along the second direction. The telescopic end of the first telescopic rod 1203 is connected to the main body 1202. The first telescopic rod 1203 is configured to drive the main body 1202 to move along the second direction so that the end face of the main body 1202 toward the side of the transport frame 1101 abuts against the photovoltaic panel 130.

[0045] Specifically, as shown in Figures 1 to 3, the main body 1202 is slidably connected at both ends along the length direction of the transport rack 1101 and the side walls of the transport rack 1101 along the height direction of the transport rack 1101. The position of the main body 1202 in the height direction of the transport rack 1101 can be adjusted so that the main body 1202 can abut the side of the photovoltaic panel 130 at any height.

[0046] The abutment between the main body 1202 and the photovoltaic panel 130 is controlled by a first driving unit. The first driving unit in this embodiment includes two first telescopic rods 1203. The two first telescopic rods 1203 are respectively located on two opposite side walls in the length direction of the transport rack 1101. The telescopic ends of the two first telescopic rods 1203 are respectively connected to the opposite sides in the length direction of the main body 1202. At this time, the two first telescopic rods 1203 contract to drive the main body 1202 to move along the width direction of the transport rack 1101. The end face of the main body 1202 facing the side of the transport rack 1101 can abut against the side wall of the photovoltaic panel 130 to complete the clamping and fixation of the photovoltaic panel 130.

[0047] When the photovoltaic module transport equipment 100 reaches the designated unloading position, the first telescopic rod 1203 extends. At this time, the main body 1202 moves away from the transport rack 1101, and the end face of the main body 1202 relative to the photovoltaic panel 130 is disengaged from the photovoltaic panel 130. At this time, the photovoltaic panel 130 can move in the grid 1102.

[0048] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the first direction is the length direction of the transport rack 1101, and the second direction is the width direction of the transport rack 1101. The first direction and the second direction will not be described in detail in the following sections.

[0049] Compared with the existing photovoltaic panel fixing device, the present application fixes all photovoltaic panels by abutting the main body and the photovoltaic panel, reducing the number of manual fastening operations, thereby improving the loading and unloading efficiency of the photovoltaic panels, and further improving the transportation efficiency of the photovoltaic panels.

[0050] In one embodiment, the side wall of the transport rack 1101 along the first direction has a slide groove 1103, and the slide groove 1103 extends along the height direction of the transport rack 1101; the positioning rack 1201 also includes a connecting member 1204, and the connecting member 1204 extends along the second direction. The connecting member 1204 is connected to one end of the main body 1202 and the fixed end of the first telescopic rod 1203, and the connecting member 1204 and the slide groove 1103 are slidably connected along the height direction of the transport rack 1101.

[0051] Specifically, as shown in FIG2-3 , the transport rack 1101 is provided with a slide groove 1103 on two opposite side walls along its length. The number of slide grooves 1103 on each side wall can be one or more. When there are multiple slide grooves 1103, the slide grooves 1103 are sequentially distributed along the width direction of the transport rack 1101.

[0052] In this embodiment, the connecting member 1204 is connected to the fixed end of the first telescopic rod 1203 along the width direction of the transport rack 1101, the telescopic end of the first telescopic rod 1203 is connected to the main body 1202, and the connecting member 1204 and the slide groove 1103 are slidably connected along the height direction of the transport rack 1101. When the connecting member 1204 slides relative to the slide groove 1103, the first telescopic rod 1203 and the main body 1202 rise or fall along the height direction of the transport rack 1101, and the telescopic movement of the first telescopic rod 1203 controls the main body 1202 to abut or disengage from the side wall of the photovoltaic panel 130, so that the photovoltaic module transport equipment 100 can operate under different working conditions.

[0053] Based on the above-mentioned embodiment, the photovoltaic module transportation equipment 100 also includes a second drive unit, which includes a first transmission rod 1205 and a motor 1206. The first transmission rod 1205 extends along the height direction of the transport frame and is screwed to the connecting member 1204 through a transmission thread. The motor 1206 is connected to the bottom of the transport vehicle 110, and the motor 1206 is configured to drive the first transmission rod 1205 to rotate so that the first transmission rod 1205 drives the connecting member 1204 to move along the height direction of the transport frame 1101.

[0054] Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of the bottom of the photovoltaic module transport device provided in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 6 is a partially enlarged schematic diagram of portion A in Figure 4; and Figure 7 is a partially enlarged schematic diagram of portion B in Figure 4. Specifically, as shown in Figures 2 to 4, 6, and 7, the circumferential outer wall of the first transmission rod 1205 has external threads, and the first transmission rod 1205 extends along the height direction of the transport rack 1101. The connecting member 1204 has a threaded hole, and the first transmission rod 1205 is inserted into the threaded hole. The external threaded hole of the first transmission rod 1205 and the threaded hole are screwed together. When the first transmission rod 1205 rotates, the connecting member 1204 slides along the slide groove 1103 accordingly.

[0055] The rotation of the first transmission rod 1205 is driven by the motor 1206, which is located at the bottom of the transport vehicle 110. A reducer can be added between the motor 1206 and the first transmission rod 1205 to control the rotation of the first transmission rod 1205, thereby controlling the rising or falling speed of the connecting member 1204 and making the movement of the connecting member 1204 more stable.

[0056] In addition, in order to make the movement of the first transmission rod 1205 in the height direction of the transport frame 1101 more stable and prevent the first transmission rod 1205 from deviating in the width direction of the transport frame 1101 during rotation, one end of the first transmission rod 1205 in the height direction of the transport frame 1101 is rotatably connected to the baffle 1212, which extends in the width direction of the transport frame 1101 and is fixedly connected to the side wall of the transport frame 1101.

[0057] In addition, the second drive unit also includes a second transmission rod 1207, which is located at the bottom of the transport vehicle 110, and the ends of the second transmission rod 1207 and the first transmission rod 1205 are engaged with each other through meshing teeth. The second transmission rod 1207 is constructed to rotate under the drive of the motor 1206.

[0058] It should be noted that the motor 1206 and the first transmission rod 1205 in this embodiment are arranged correspondingly.

[0059] Still as shown in Figures 2-4, 6 and 7, unlike the previous embodiment, this embodiment has a single motor 1206, which is connected to a second transmission rod 1207 with a transmission. The second transmission rod 1207 extends along the length of the transport vehicle 110, and the two ends of the second transmission rod 1207 along the length of the transport vehicle 110 are meshed with the end surfaces of the first transmission rod 1205 on both sides of the transport frame 1101 through meshing teeth. The ends of the first transmission rod 1205 and the second transmission rod 1207 are bevel gears. The motor 1206 drives the second transmission rod 1207 to rotate, and the first transmission rod 1205 rotates accordingly, so that the connecting member 1204 rises or falls along the height direction of the transport frame 1101.

[0060] Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the protective unit in the photovoltaic module transport equipment provided in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 5, in some embodiments, a plurality of protective units 1208 are provided on the side of the body 1202 facing the grid 1102. The plurality of protective units 1208 are sequentially spaced and distributed along a first direction. The protective units 1208 are opposite the grid 1102 and elastically abut against the photovoltaic panel 130 along a second direction.

[0061] Specifically, the end face of one side of the main body 1202 facing the transport rack 1101 has a plurality of grooves 1209, the grooves 1209 are arranged in sequence along the first direction, and the grooves 1209 are opposite to the grille 1102, and the protection unit 1208 includes a block 1210 and an elastic member 1211, the elastic member 1211 is connected between the block 1210 and the groove 1209, and the block 1210 abuts against the photovoltaic panel 130 along the second direction under the elastic force of the elastic member 1211.

[0062] By setting the protection unit 1208, the block 1210 and the side of the photovoltaic panel 130 are continuously in contact during the fixation process, and the elastic member 1211 can effectively reduce the collision between the photovoltaic panel 130 and the grid 1102 during transportation, thereby improving the structural stability of the photovoltaic panel 130 in the grid 1102 and avoiding damage caused by the collision between the photovoltaic panel 130 and the grid wall.

[0063] In some embodiments, the photovoltaic panel transporter 100 further includes a pushing assembly 140, which includes a connecting frame 1401 and a third drive unit. The connecting frame 1401 extends in a first direction and is connected to a side of the transport frame 1101 facing away from the main body 1202 in a second direction. The third drive unit includes at least one second telescopic rod 1402 and at least one push rod 1403. The second telescopic rod 1402 is telescopically arranged to extend in the second direction, with its fixed end connected to the connecting frame 1401. The push rod 1403 is extended through the grille 1102 in the second direction, with its end facing away from the grille 1102 connected to the telescopic end of the second telescopic rod 1402. The second telescopic rod 1402 is configured to drive the push rod 1403 in the second direction to disengage the photovoltaic panel 130 from the grille 1102 in the second direction. The provision of the pushing assembly 140 improves the efficiency of unloading the photovoltaic panels 130.

[0064] When there are multiple push rods 1403, in order to simplify the structure of the photovoltaic module transporting device 100 and still complete the detachment operation of the photovoltaic panel 130 from the grid 1102 with fewer second telescopic rods 1402, in some specific embodiments, as shown in FIG3 , the pushing assembly 140 further includes a connecting plate 1404, which is disposed at the telescopic end of the second telescopic rod 1402 and extends along the first direction; and there are multiple push rods 1403, which are spaced apart along the first direction and are all connected to the connecting plate 1404.

[0065] In order to make the movement of the connecting plate 1404 along the width direction of the transport rack 1101 more stable, in some embodiments, the inner side wall of the connecting rack 1401 includes a slide rail 1405, which extends along the second direction, and the two ends of the connecting plate 1404 along the first direction slide and abut against the slide rail 1405 along the second direction.

[0066] In some embodiments, the photovoltaic module transport device 100 further includes a controller 150 . The controller 150 is connected to the outer wall of the transport rack 1101 . The controller 150 is electrically connected to the first telescopic rod 1203 and the second telescopic rod 1402 .

[0067] The photovoltaic module transport device of this embodiment includes a transport vehicle and a fixing assembly, wherein the transport vehicle includes a transport frame having a plurality of grilles arranged in a first direction and spaced apart in sequence, with a cavity for accommodating a photovoltaic panel formed between each adjacent two grilles; the fixing assembly includes a positioning frame and a first drive unit, wherein the positioning frame includes a body located on the side of the grilles, the body extending in the first direction, the body being slidably connected to the sidewall of the transport frame at both ends along the first direction along the height direction of the transport frame; the first drive unit includes at least one first telescopic rod, the at least one first telescopic rod being arranged at one end of the transport frame along the first direction, the first telescopic rod being telescopically arranged in a second direction, the telescopic end of the first telescopic rod being connected to the body, the first telescopic rod being configured to drive the body to move in the second direction so that an end face of the body facing the transport frame abuts against the photovoltaic panel; wherein the first direction is the length direction of the transport frame, and the second direction is the width direction of the transport frame. Through the mutual cooperation of the first drive unit and the positioning frame, the positioning frame can integrally fix all photovoltaic panels on the transport frame, simplifying the number of times the photovoltaic panels need to be fixed and adjusted, thereby improving the transportation efficiency of the photovoltaic panels.
