[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] This application claims priority to Chinese patent application number 2023116183798, filed on November 30, 2023, entitled “Laminate disassembly device and laminate disassembly method,” the entire text of which is hereby incorporated by reference. Technical Field

[0003] The present application relates to the technical field of battery processing, and in particular to a laminate disassembly device and a laminate disassembly method. Background Art

[0004] As one of the most promising renewable energy sources, solar energy has been widely used in recent years, with photovoltaic power generation being one of the most important applications. With the booming photovoltaic industry, the issue of recycling retired laminates has gradually become prominent. Laminates are divided into single-glass modules and double-glass modules. Single-glass modules are modules consisting of only one layer of glass bonded to the solar panel, while double-glass modules are modules with glass on both sides of the solar panel. When disassembling a double-glass module, it is necessary to first use cutting equipment to remove the glass on one side of the laminate, and then remove the glass on the other side. However, after removing the glass on one side of the laminate, the non-glass side of the laminate will be easily broken due to lack of support, making it difficult for the cutting equipment to remove the glass on the other side using the same method again, resulting in difficulty in disassembling existing double-glass modules. Moreover, when the glass is disassembled in two steps, the disassembly process is cumbersome and inefficient.

[0040] It should be noted that if an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be an intermediate element. If an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element.

[0041] The present application provides a laminate disassembly device, as shown in FIG1 . The laminate disassembly device includes a fixing member 800 and two opposing cutting mechanisms 100. The fixing member 800 is used to mount a laminate 700. Each cutting mechanism 100 includes a set of rotary blades 110. A gap 200 is defined between the rotary blades 110 of the two cutting mechanisms 100. The gap 200 is used to accommodate at least a portion of the laminate 700. The two sets of rotary blades 110 are capable of relative movement.

[0042] In the above-described laminate disassembly device, two cutting mechanisms 100 are positioned relative to each other, so that the two sets of rotary blades 110 of the two cutting mechanisms 100 are positioned relative to each other, with a gap 200 formed between the two sets of rotary blades 110 to accommodate the laminate 700. Thus, when the laminate 700 needs to be cut and disassembled, the laminate 700 is first mounted on the fixing member 800 so that at least a portion of the laminate 700 is positioned within the gap 200. The two sets of rotary blades 110 are then brought closer to each other, i.e., both sets of rotary blades 110 are moved toward the laminate 700, thereby disassembling or stripping the glass on two opposing surfaces of the laminate 700. In other words, in the embodiment of the present application, the laminate 700 may be a double-glass assembly, and the laminate disassembly device can simultaneously disassemble the glass on two opposing surfaces of the laminate 700. Compared with the prior art method of disassembling the glass of a double-glass assembly one by one, the laminate disassembly device of the present application can simultaneously disassemble the glass on both sides of the laminate 700 serving as a double-glass assembly, and there will be no problem of difficulty in disassembling the other side due to disassembling one side. This not only reduces the difficulty of disassembly, but also improves the disassembly efficiency.

[0043] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG1 , the cutting mechanism 100 further includes a mounting frame 120 and a screw rod 130. The screw rod 130 and the mounting frame 120 are threadedly connected, with the axial direction of the screw rod 130 being parallel to the arrangement direction of the two cutting mechanisms 100. The screw rod 130 is connected to the rotary cutter 110. The screw rod 130 is configured to rotate to drive the rotary cutter 110 to move. In other words, the rotary cutter 110 is connected to the screw rod 130 and can rotate, thereby driving the rotary cutter 110 to rotate. Moreover, because the screw rod 130 and the mounting frame 120 are threadedly connected, the screw rod 130 can also convert rotation into linear motion. That is, the screw rod 130 can achieve linear motion along its own axial direction through rotation, thereby driving the rotary cutter 110 to move axially. In other words, the rotary cutter 110 can both rotate and move during relative motion. In other words, the rotary cutter 110 can both rotate relative to the mounting frame 120 and move relative to the mounting frame.

[0044] Specifically, a portion of the spiral rod 130 extends into the mounting bracket 120 and is rotatably engaged with the mounting bracket 120 through a threaded connection, and another portion of the spiral rod 130 is located outside the mounting bracket 120 and is connected to the rotary cutter 110 .

[0045] Specifically, each cutting mechanism 100 includes a plurality of rotary cutters 110. The plurality of rotary cutters 110 of each cutting mechanism 100 are arranged on a mounting frame 120 in an array.

[0046] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG1 , a plurality of rotary blades 110 are provided, each of which is connected to a screw rod 130 . The multiple screw rods 130 are rotatably connected to the mounting frame 120 . Since each cutting mechanism 100 is provided with multiple rotary blades 110 , disassembly efficiency can be increased. Furthermore, since each rotary blade 110 is coupled to a screw rod 130 , each rotary blade 110 can be independently controlled for disassembly.

[0047] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 to 3, the rotary cutter 110 includes a base 111 and a blade 112 connected to each other. The base 111 is connected to a screw 130. The blade 112 is used to disassemble the glass on the surface of the laminate 700. The blade 112 is connected to the screw 130 via the base 111, so that the movement of the screw 130 can drive the movement of the blade 112.

[0048] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 to 3, blade 112 includes a first connecting portion 1121 and a second connecting portion 1122 that are connected and arranged at an angle. Base 111 may be, for example, disc-shaped. First connecting portion 1121 is connected to base 111. By configuring blade 112 as two portions arranged at an angle, the contact area between blade 112 and the surface of laminate 700 can be increased.

[0049] 1 to 3 , the length of the first connection portion 1121 is A, and the length of the second connection portion 1122 is B, where A is greater than B. In other words, the length of the first connection portion 1121 is set to be greater than the length of the second connection portion 1122.

[0050] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 to 3, the angle between the first connecting portion 1121 and the first direction is α, and the angle between the second connecting portion 1122 and the first direction is β, where α is greater than β, the first direction is the direction of gravity, and the first direction is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the two cutting mechanisms 100. By limiting the length relationship between the first connecting portion 1121 and the second connecting portion 1122, the angle between the first connecting portion 1121 and the first direction, and the angle between the second connecting portion 1122 and the first direction, the disassembly efficiency of the rotary cutter 110 is further limited, that is, a higher disassembly efficiency of the rotary cutter 110 can be achieved.

[0051] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 to 3, the blade 112 further includes a cutting head 1123 connected to the end of the second connecting portion 1122 facing away from the first connecting portion 1121. The cutting head 1123 is triangular, arc-shaped, or sawtooth-shaped. By providing the cutting head 1123 on the side of the second connecting portion 1122 facing away from the first connecting portion 1121, and by allowing the cutting head 1123 to abut against the laminate 700 and define its shape, the disassembly efficiency of the rotary cutter 110 can be improved.

[0052] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 to 3, a rotary cutter 110 includes a plurality of blades 112. The plurality of blades 112 are all connected to a base 111. The plurality of blades 112 are arranged around the circumference of the base 111. A rotary cutter 110 includes a plurality of blades 112 and a base 111, and the plurality of blades 112 are all connected to the base 111. Thus, during the disassembly process, the plurality of blades 112 can all come into contact with the laminate 700, thereby improving the disassembly efficiency. Although Figure 3 only shows that a rotary cutter 110 includes four blades 112, the number of blades 112 is not limited thereto, and the number of blades 112 can be set as needed.

[0053] In addition, Figure 2 is a side view of the rotary cutter 110, illustrating the lengths of the first and second connecting portions 1121, 1122 of the blade 112, and the angle between the first and second connecting portions 1121, 1122. Figures 3 and 4 are front views of the rotary cutter 110, schematically illustrating the arrangement of the multiple blades 112. Figure 4 schematically illustrates a possible embodiment of the blade 112.

[0054] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG1 , the laminate disassembly apparatus further includes a collection box 400 disposed on one side of the gap 200 along a first direction. In other words, along the first direction, the collection box 400 is disposed on the side of the gap 200 away from the fixture 800. The collection box 400 includes a chamber 420 connected to the outside world. The gap 200 and the opening 421 of the chamber 420 are distributed along the first direction. In other words, the gap 200 and the opening 421 of the chamber 420 may be substantially aligned in the first direction, where the first direction is the direction of gravity. By disposing the collection box 400 on the side of the gap 200 away from the fixture 800 along the first direction, the disassembled structure of the laminate 700 can be collected.

[0055] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1, the laminate disassembly device also includes a buffer 410 connected to the collection box 400. The buffer 410 is in a conical shape, in other words, in a truncated cone shape and has a hollow structure. The buffer 410 includes a large end 411 having a first opening size and a small end 412 having a second opening size smaller than the first opening size. The large end 411 of the buffer 410 faces the gap 200, and the small end 412 of the buffer 410 is connected to the chamber. By installing the buffer 410 on the collection box 400, the components of the disassembled laminate 700 are moved into the chamber 420 of the collection box 400 in sequence through the large end 411 of the buffer 410 and the small end 412 of the buffer 410. The buffer 410 is in a conical shape, which can limit the movement trajectory of the components of the disassembled laminate 700 and guide the movement of the components of the disassembled laminate 700.

[0056] 1 , the fixing member 800 includes a robotic arm 300 connected to the laminate 700 to move the laminate 700. The robotic arm 300 facilitates the movement of the laminate 700 so that the laminate 700 is positioned within the gap 200.

[0057] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1, during disassembly, the robotic arm 300 drives the laminate 700 to move into the gap 200, and makes the thickness direction of the laminate 700 parallel to the arrangement direction of the two cutting mechanisms 100, that is, the thickness direction of the laminate 700 is perpendicular to the first direction.

[0058] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1, the laminate disassembly device further includes a processing chamber 500 and a positioning member 520. The processing chamber 500 has a housing cavity 510 for accommodating the cutting mechanism 100 and the fixing member 800. The positioning member 520 and the robotic arm 300 are both mounted on the cavity wall of the housing cavity 510. The positioning member 520 is used to locate the relative position between the laminate 700 and the cutting mechanism 100. By setting the processing chamber 500, the cutting mechanism 100 and the robotic arm 300 are both set in the housing cavity 510 of the processing chamber 500, and the positioning member 520 is installed on the cavity wall of the housing cavity 510. The positioning member 520 is used to locate the relative position between the laminate 700 and the cutting mechanism 100, so that the area of ​​the laminate 700 to be disassembled can be accurately determined.

[0059] In some embodiments, the positioning member 520 is an infrared sensor.

[0060] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG1 , the laminate disassembly device further includes a dust collection mechanism 600. The dust collection mechanism 600 includes a negative pressure source 610 and a suction pipe 620. One end of the suction pipe 620 is in communication with the accommodating chamber 510, and the other end is connected to the negative pressure source 610. By providing the dust collection mechanism 600 and extending the suction pipe 620 into the accommodating chamber 510, when the laminate 700 begins to be disassembled, the negative pressure source 610 is turned on, thereby sucking out dust generated within the accommodating chamber 510.

[0061] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG1 , the dust collecting mechanism 600 further includes a support frame 630 . The negative pressure source 610 is mounted on the support frame 630 .

[0062] According to the laminate disassembly device of the embodiment of the present application, the two cutting mechanisms 100 are positioned relative to each other, so that the two sets of rotary blades of the two cutting mechanisms 100 are positioned relative to each other, thereby forming a gap 200 between the two sets of rotary blades 110 to accommodate the laminate. When the laminate 700 needs to be cut and disassembled, the laminate 700 is first installed using the fixing member 800, so that at least a portion of the laminate 700 is positioned within the gap 200. The two sets of rotary blades 110 are then moved closer to each other, that is, both sets of rotary blades 110 move toward the laminate, thereby disassembling the glass on the surface of the laminate 700. Compared to existing methods of disassembling the glass on the surface of a double-glass assembly one by one, the laminate disassembly device of the present application can simultaneously disassemble the glass on both sides of the laminate forming the double-glass assembly, eliminating the problem of disassembling one side and making the other side difficult to disassemble. This not only reduces the difficulty of disassembly, but also improves disassembly efficiency.

[0063] The present application also provides a laminate disassembly method, which can be performed using the above-mentioned laminate disassembly device. The laminate disassembly method includes steps S1 and S2.

[0064] At S1 , the laminate 700 is mounted on the fixing member 800 so that at least a portion of the laminate 700 is located within the gap 200 between the two sets of rotary cutters 110 of the two cutting mechanisms 100 ;

[0065] At S2 , the two sets of rotary blades 110 are moved relative to each other to remove the glass on the surface of the laminate 700 .

[0066] In the laminate disassembly method described above, two cutting mechanisms 100 are positioned relative to each other, so that the two sets of rotary blades 110 of the two cutting mechanisms 100 are positioned relative to each other, thereby creating a gap 200 between the two sets of rotary blades 110 to accommodate the laminate 700. The laminate 700 is mounted using a fixing member 800, so that at least a portion of the laminate 700 is positioned within the gap 200. The two sets of rotary blades 110 are then moved toward each other, i.e., both sets of rotary blades 110 are moved toward the laminate 700, thereby disassembling the glass on the surface of the laminate 700. The laminate disassembly method of the present application, performed by the laminate 700 disassembly device, can simultaneously disassemble the glass on both sides of the laminate 700 of a double-glass assembly, reducing the difficulty of disassembly while also improving disassembly efficiency.

[0067] In some embodiments, step S1 includes step S0. At step S0, after the laminate 700 is mounted on the fixture 800, the laminate 700 is driven by the robotic arm 300 of the fixture 800 to move into the gap 200, with the thickness direction of the laminate 700 parallel to the arrangement direction of the two cutting mechanisms 100. The robotic arm 300 drives the laminate 700 into the gap 200, so that the thickness direction of the laminate 700 is parallel to the arrangement direction of the two cutting mechanisms 100, even if the thickness direction of the laminate 700 is perpendicular to the first direction, so that the two sets of rotary blades 110 on both sides of the laminate 700 can act on the surface of the laminate 700.

[0068] In some embodiments, the laminate disassembly method further includes: during step S2, activating the dust collection mechanism 600 to absorb dust generated by the rotary blade 110 during disassembly. When disassembling the laminate 700, the dust collection mechanism 600 is activated, allowing dust within the accommodating chamber 510 to move out of the accommodating chamber 510 through the suction pipe 620, thereby aspirating the dust generated within the accommodating chamber 510.

[0069] In some embodiments, the dimension of the gap 200 along the first direction is greater than or equal to the dimension of the laminate 700 along the first direction, allowing the laminate 700 to be completely disposed within the gap 200. Thus, the rotary cutter 110 can be used to disassemble the laminate 700, i.e., disassemble both surfaces of the laminate 700. This means that the two cutting mechanisms 100 can be simultaneously activated and operated only once to complete the disassembly. In other words, because the two cutting mechanisms 100 can be activated and operated simultaneously, both surfaces of the laminate 700 can be disassembled simultaneously, thereby enabling the disassembly of both surfaces of the laminate 700 to be completed in one operation.

[0070] In some embodiments, the dimension of the gap 200 along the first direction is smaller than the dimension of the laminate 700 along the first direction. The laminate 700 can be partially disposed in the gap 200 and thus can be disassembled using the rotary cutter 110 .

[0071] In some embodiments, laminate 700 is partially located within gap 200, requiring multiple disassembly steps.

[0072] Therefore, in this case, after the first disassembly, the laminate disassembly method further includes step S3 after step S2, at which the robotic arm 300 loosens the laminate 700 so that the undisassembled area of ​​the laminate 700 falls freely into the gap 200, and step S2 is performed again to disassemble the undisassembled area of ​​the laminate 700.

[0073] It should be noted that in the above embodiment, the thickness of the undisassembled region of the laminate 700 is greater than the dimension of the gap 200 along the arrangement direction. At this time, when the robotic arm 300 releases the laminate 700, the laminate 700 falls freely, and the undisassembled region of the laminate 700 falls into the gap 200. In other words, the undisassembled region of the laminate 700 first falls above the gap 200. As the rotary cutter 110 operates to disassemble the laminate 700, the thickness of the laminate 700 decreases, and the undisassembled region of the laminate 700 gradually falls into the gap 200.

[0074] In some embodiments, after the first disassembly, the laminate disassembly method further includes step S31 after step S2. At step S31, the robotic arm 300 releases the laminate 700, allowing the laminate 700 to fall a preset distance. The robotic arm 300 then re-grips the laminate 700 and performs step S2 again to disassemble the undisassembled area of ​​the laminate 700. Specifically, the robotic arm 300 controls the size of the laminate 700 within the gap 200 and repeatedly releases portions of the laminate 700 of the preset size, thereby completing the disassembly of the laminate 700.

[0075] The laminate disassembly device and laminate disassembly method according to various embodiments of the present application can effectively solve the problems of difficult disassembly of glass on laminates and low disassembly efficiency.
