In the correlation technique, carry out photovoltaic module loading shipment through the mode that increases fork truck technical worker and haulage vehicle to improve loading speed and efficiency. However, as forklift technicians become resource scarce and labor costs continue to rise, the use of existing loading schemes increases component manufacturing and handling costs.

According to the photovoltaic product handling system provided by the embodiment of the invention, the handled photovoltaic products can comprise photovoltaic modules, photovoltaic module semi-finished products and the like, but the system is not limited to the photovoltaic module semi-finished products.

The photovoltaic product loading and unloading system provided by the embodiment of the invention comprises photovoltaic product loading and unloading equipment, and can reduce the loading cost while ensuring the loading efficiency, thereby reducing the transportation cost of photovoltaic products such as photovoltaic modules, semi-finished photovoltaic modules and the like. It should be understood that the photovoltaic product handling system may also include warehouses and transit vehicles. The warehouse may be sorted into storage photovoltaic products. The transfer vehicle can keep the photovoltaic product in different positions of the warehouse according to the customer order and the component efficiency. The transfer Vehicle may be an AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle, abbreviated as AGV) forklift, or other Vehicle or intelligent forklift capable of transferring. For example: when the transfer vehicle is an AGV forklift, the produced photovoltaic modules are boxed and packaged, and then the photovoltaic modules are handed over to a warehouse management department by a production department; the warehouse management system of the warehouse management department can control the AGV fork truck to place the photovoltaic module in different warehouse positions according to the customer orders and the module efficiency according to the planned driving route.

When the goods are required to be delivered, the warehouse management system can select a target storage position from the warehouse according to the delivery list when receiving the delivery list, and control the transfer equipment in charge of delivery, such as an AGV forklift, to carry the photovoltaic module stored in the target storage position to the photovoltaic product loading and unloading equipment based on the target storage position, so as to load the photovoltaic product.

When photovoltaic product handling equipment loads and unloads the photovoltaic product, can place the structure that can realize the photovoltaic product support on haulage vehicle. Based on this, above-mentioned photovoltaic product handling system can also include the first bearing structure that is used for bearing photovoltaic product. FIG. 1A is a schematic top view of a first supporting structure according to an embodiment of the present invention; as shown in fig. 1A, the number of the first carrying structures 100 may be one, or may be multiple, for carrying photovoltaic products, which may be placed on a transportation vehicle. The transport vehicle is not limited to a conventional truck but may be other vehicles. Fig. 1B illustrates a perspective partial schematic view of a first load bearing structure in an embodiment of the invention. As shown in fig. 1B, each of the first load-bearing structures 100 has a first escape space 110 therein. The surface of the first load bearing structure 100 has at least one first access notch 120.

In practical applications, a completed lumen may be separated by partitions or partitions to form multiple independent subspaces. The partition or the isolation part can be integrated with the first bearing structure, or a cavity can be arranged in the first bearing structure, and then the partition or the isolation part is arranged in the cavity to form a plurality of independent subspaces.

As shown in fig. 1B, each of the first access notches 120 has two first openings communicating with the first avoidance space 110, and the two first openings are integrally connected. One first opening is located on the carrying surface 100A of the first carrying structure, and the other first opening is located on the side surface 100B of the first carrying structure. For convenience of description, the first opening on the carrying surface 100A of the first carrying structure is defined as a first carrying surface opening 120A, and the first opening on the side surface 100B of the first carrying structure is defined as a first lateral opening 120B. It should be understood that the first avoidance space 110 can contain one or more independent subspaces, which can be in one-to-one correspondence with the first access notches 120, and each independent subspace can communicate with a corresponding first access notch 120.

In order to facilitate loading or unloading of the photovoltaic product, the photovoltaic product loading and unloading system may further include at least one second supporting structure for supporting the photovoltaic product. Fig. 2A illustrates a distribution diagram of a second bearing structure in an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2A, the number of the second supporting structures 200 may be one or more. Each second carrying structure 200 is provided with a second avoidance space 210 inside, and a part of the photovoltaic product handling equipment may be located in the second avoidance space 210, or may be completely located outside the second avoidance space 210, and may be arranged in combination with practical applications.

As shown in fig. 2A, the surface of the second bearing structure 200 has at least one second access notch 220. Each second access notch 220 has two second openings, one second opening is located on the carrying surface 200A of the second carrying structure, and the other second opening is located on the side surface 200B of the second carrying structure. For convenience of the following description, the second opening on the supporting surface 200A of the second supporting structure is defined as a second supporting surface opening 520A, and the second opening on the side surface 200B of the second supporting structure is defined as a second lateral opening 220B.

In order to facilitate the transfer of the photovoltaic product to the carrying surface of the second carrying structure by the transfer vehicle, as shown in fig. 2A, the carrying surface of the second carrying structure, 200A, has at least one guiding structure 230 for guiding the transfer vehicle, and each guiding structure 230 may at least comprise a guiding sign or a guiding track. The guide structure 230 can provide guidance for the transfer vehicle, and the transfer vehicle can accurately place the photovoltaic product into a designated area under the guidance of the guide structure.

As shown in fig. 2A, the photovoltaic product handling system may further include a vehicle parking platform R, which may be in communication with an external vehicle driving road. The platform surface of the vehicle parking platform R is lower than the road surface of the vehicle running road. For example: the transportation vehicle running on the vehicle running road can be conveyed to the vehicle parking platform by adopting a lifting elevator and the like. Another example is: the vehicle driving road may be set to a downhill road with respect to the vehicle parking platform so that the transportation vehicle drives into the vehicle parking platform.

Fig. 2B illustrates a schematic view of the first bearing structure and the second bearing structure in a loading and unloading state in the embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2B, the second carrying structure 200 can be used as a loading platform, and the transfer vehicle can transfer the photovoltaic product onto the carrying surface 200A of the second carrying structure. Meanwhile, at least one second bearing structure 200 is located at one side of the vehicle parking platform R, and the plane of the table top of the vehicle parking platform R may be located below the plane of the bearing surface 200A of the second bearing structure. After the transport vehicle has driven into the vehicle parking platform R, the one or more first carrying structures 100 are placed on the platform floor V of the transport vehicle, and the photovoltaic product handling device can move the photovoltaic products located in the second carrying structure onto the first carrying structures with only a simple operation.

For example, as shown in fig. 2A and fig. 2B, the at least one second supporting structure 200 may be divided into two groups of second supporting structures 200, and the vehicle parking platform R is located between the two groups of second supporting structures 200, so as to ensure that the plane of the supporting surface 200A of each group of second supporting structures is higher than the plane of the table top of the vehicle parking platform R. When the transport vehicle drives into the vehicle parking platform R, the bearing surface of the first bearing structure on the transport vehicle is lower, so that the loading operation of the photovoltaic product is facilitated

The following describes in detail an implementation process of the photovoltaic product handling system provided by the embodiment of the invention with reference to fig. 3. It should be understood that the following implementation procedures are only used for explanation and do not limit the protection scope of the embodiments of the present invention.

The implementation process of the photovoltaic product handling system provided by the embodiment of the invention comprises the following steps:

step 301: the production department door hands over the packaged photovoltaic modules to the warehouse management part.

Step 302: and the warehouse management system controls the AGB forklift to place the packaged photovoltaic modules in different warehouse positions according to the module efficiency of the packaged photovoltaic modules and the condition of customer orders.

Step 303: when the warehouse management system receives the shipment list, a target warehouse position is selected from the warehouse according to the shipment list, and transfer equipment responsible for shipment, such as an AGV fork truck, is controlled to transfer the photovoltaic modules stored in the target warehouse position to a bearing surface of a second bearing structure based on the target warehouse position;

step 304: and driving the transport vehicle on the vehicle driving road into the vehicle parking platform. When the loading operation is required, the photovoltaic module is loaded on the bearing surface of the second bearing structure, step 305 is executed, when the unloading operation is required, the first bearing structure is placed on the transport vehicle, the photovoltaic module is loaded on the bearing surface of the first bearing structure, and step 306 is executed.

Step 305: when the transport vehicle drives into the vehicle parking platform, the first bearing structure is placed on the carriage bottom plate of the transport vehicle, and the photovoltaic product loaded by the loading surface of the second bearing structure is moved to the loading surface of the first bearing structure on the transport vehicle by controlling the photovoltaic product loading and unloading equipment.

Step 306: when the transport vehicle drives into the vehicle parking platform, the photovoltaic assembly borne by the bearing surface of the first bearing structure can be moved to the bearing surface of the second bearing structure by controlling the photovoltaic product loading and unloading equipment.

As shown in fig. 2A and 2B, after the carrying surface 200A of the first carrying structure carries the photovoltaic product, the first carrying structure 100 may be placed on the photovoltaic product (which has been packaged), and then the placing of the photovoltaic product on the first carrying structure is continued as described above. Fig. 2B illustrates a state in which two layers of the first carrier structure 100 carry the photovoltaic product, but three layers, even more layers of the first carrier structure 100 are not excluded.

Fig. 4 illustrates a schematic structural view of a photovoltaic product handling device in an embodiment of the invention. As shown in fig. 4, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a photovoltaic product handling apparatus, which includes: at least one gear shaping structure B. The packaged photovoltaic product, such as a module, can be loaded and unloaded onto the first carrier structure by one, two or more of the gear shaping structures B.

As shown in fig. 4, each of the gear shaping structures B includes a driving mechanism 410 and a racking mechanism 420 provided on the driving mechanism 410. The holding mechanism 420 has at least one holding arm 421 for holding the photovoltaic product. The support mechanism 420 may be a support arm with a zigzag structure, or may be other structures. The drive mechanism 410 has two drive directions (defined as a first drive direction and a second drive direction) that intersect. The driving mechanism 410 is used for driving at least one carrying arm 421 of the supporting mechanism 420 to perform loading and unloading operations on the photovoltaic product along a first driving direction and a second driving direction.

Based on the specific structure of the gear shaping structure, it can be found that the driving mechanism included in each gear shaping structure has two crossed driving directions, so that the driving mechanism can drive at least one bearing arm of the bearing mechanism to support a photovoltaic product along one driving direction, and then convey the photovoltaic product supported by the bearing arm to a transport vehicle along the other driving direction, thereby realizing the automatic loading operation of the photovoltaic product to a certain extent, and facilitating and fast loading.

In order to realize automatic control, the photovoltaic product handling equipment further comprises a terminal device. Fig. 5 illustrates an automation control schematic diagram of the terminal device in the embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 5, the terminal device 500 can communicate with the driving mechanism 410 included in at least one loading and unloading unit 400, so that the terminal device 500 can control the driving mechanism 410 to drive the at least one carrying arm 421 of the supporting mechanism 420 in the first driving direction and the second driving direction to enter and exit the first avoidance space 110 through the first entrance gap 120. The terminal device 500 may be a smart control box and may be disposed adjacent to the second load bearing structure. As shown in fig. 2B and fig. 5, the intelligent control box has a first direction control button 501, an emergency stop button 502 and a second direction driving button 503, and the operator operates the three buttons to implement loading operation.

In an alternative, as shown in fig. 4, the driving mechanism 410 includes a first direction driving assembly 411 and a second direction driving assembly 412 mounted on the first direction driving assembly 411. The holding mechanism 420 is provided on the second direction driving member 412. As shown in fig. 5, when the photovoltaic product handling apparatus includes the terminal device 500, the terminal device 500 may communicate with the first direction driving assembly 411 and the second direction driving assembly 412 included in at least one handling unit 400 to control the movement of the first direction driving assembly 411 and the second direction driving assembly 412.

As shown in fig. 4, the first direction driving assembly 411 and the second direction driving assembly 412 may be coupled by a coupling member 430 such as a bolt, a screw, or the like. The driving direction of the first direction driving unit 411 may be a first driving direction, and the driving method of the second direction driving unit 412 may be a second driving direction.

In fig. 4, the first direction driving assembly 411 is a lifting driving assembly, and the second direction driving assembly 412 is a horizontal driving assembly. At this time, the supporting mechanism is arranged on the power output end of the horizontal driving component. With the configuration of the drive mechanism 410 shown in fig. 4, the first drive direction is denoted by a1 and the second drive direction is denoted by a2 in fig. 1B. Of course, the first direction driving assembly is a horizontal driving assembly, and the second direction driving assembly is a lifting driving assembly. At this time, the supporting mechanism is arranged on the power output end of the lifting driving component.

For example, the lifting driving assembly may be a cylinder type lifting assembly, an electric type lifting assembly or a hydraulic type lifting assembly. For example, the lifting driving assembly includes a lifting cylinder and a bearing panel disposed on the lifting cylinder. As shown in fig. 4, if the first direction driving assembly 411 is a lifting driving assembly, the second direction driving assembly 412 is disposed on the carrying panel 411b (refer to fig. 4). If the second direction driving component is a lifting driving component, the bearing mechanism is arranged on the bearing panel.

In one example, the horizontal driving assembly is a linear slide rail assembly. For example: the linear slide rail component not only comprises a linear slide rail, but also comprises a slide block, and the slide block can be an electric slide block. For example: when the first direction driving assembly is a linear slide rail assembly, the second direction driving assembly is arranged on the sliding block, and the second direction driving assembly is arranged on the sliding block, so that the second direction driving assembly can move along the extension direction (namely the first driving direction) of the linear slide rail. Another example is: as shown in fig. 4, when the second direction driving component 412 is a linear slide component, the supporting mechanism 420 is disposed on the slider, so that at least one supporting arm 421 of the supporting mechanism 420 can move along the extending direction of the slide (i.e. the second driving direction).

In another example, figure 6 illustrates a schematic diagram of a reciprocating linear motion structure driven racking mechanism in an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 6, the horizontal driving assembly includes a linear slide rail H and a reciprocating linear motion structure Q connected to the bottom of the supporting mechanism. The reciprocating linear motion structure Q is used for driving the bearing mechanism 420 to perform reciprocating linear motion, and the reciprocating linear motion direction of the reciprocating linear motion structure Q is the same as the extension direction of the linear slide rail H.

For example: when the first direction driving component is a horizontal driving component, the second direction driving component is arranged in the linear slide rail in a sliding manner. When reciprocating linear motion mechanism is carrying out reciprocating linear motion, can drive and bear the arm and carry out reciprocating linear motion, simultaneously because bearing mechanism establishes on second direction drive assembly, reciprocating linear motion structure's reciprocating linear motion direction is the same with first direction drive assembly's direction of drive, consequently, when reciprocating linear motion mechanism drives and bears the arm and carry out reciprocating linear motion, bear the arm and also can drive second direction drive assembly and slide along the extending direction of linear slide rail (can be considered first direction of drive), prevent that second direction drive assembly from hindering the purpose that bearing mechanism extends along first direction of drive.

Another example is: as shown in fig. 4 and fig. 6, when the second direction driving component 412 is a horizontal driving component, the bottom of the supporting mechanism 420 is slidably disposed in the linear slide H, and the supporting mechanism 420 has at least one supporting arm 421 located outside the linear slide H. When the first direction driving assembly 411 is a lifting driving assembly, the first direction driving assembly 411 includes a lifting cylinder 411a and a bearing panel 411b disposed on the lifting cylinder 411a, and the second direction driving assembly 412 includes a linear sliding rail H, and if the linear sliding rail H can include a sliding rail sleeve and a sliding rail disposed in the sliding rail sleeve, the sliding rail sleeve and the bearing panel 411b are fixed together by screws. When reciprocal linear motion mechanism is carrying out reciprocal linear motion, can drive bearing mechanism 420 and carry out reciprocal linear motion, simultaneously because the bottom of bearing mechanism 420 is established in linear slide rail H, the reciprocal linear motion direction of reciprocal linear motion structure Q is the same with the drive direction of second, consequently, when reciprocal linear motion mechanism drives bearing mechanism 420 and carries out reciprocal linear motion, bearing mechanism 420 also can slide along linear slide rail H's extending direction (can be considered as second drive direction), reach the purpose that the control carrier extends along second drive direction.

The reciprocating linear motion structure can be a piston type reciprocating linear motion mechanism or a ratchet wheel reciprocating linear driving mechanism, and other possible structures are also possible. As shown in fig. 6, the reciprocating linear motion structure Q may include a rotary driving assembly. The rotary drive assembly includes a first rotary member Q1, a second rotary member Q2, and a power transmission member Q0 provided on the first rotary member Q1 and the second rotary member Q2. The bottom of the supporting mechanism is arranged on a power transmission piece Q0.

In practical applications, as shown in fig. 6, the reciprocating linear motion structure Q may further include a driving motor, which is coupled to the first rotating member Q1, and then the first rotating member Q1 and the second rotating member Q2 are power-connected by a power transmission member Q0. On the basis, the rotation direction of the first rotating member Q1 can be adjusted by controlling the forward and reverse rotation of the driving motor, and then the linear motion direction of the power transmission member Q0 is changed, so as to control the linear motion direction of the supporting mechanism 420 on the linear slide rail.

In one example, as shown in FIG. 6, the rotational drive assembly may be a belt drive assembly or a chain drive assembly. When the rotary driving assembly is a belt transmission assembly, the first rotating member Q1 and the second rotating member Q2 may be pulleys with bearings, and the power transmission member Q0 is a belt. When the driving motor drives the first rotating member Q1 and the second rotating member Q2 to rotate, the belt can drag the supporting mechanism 420 to perform linear motion on the linear sliding rail H within a certain range.

In one example, as shown in fig. 6, the rotary drive assembly may be a chain drive assembly, the first rotating member Q1 and the second rotating member Q2 may be gears with bearings, and the power transmission member may be a chain. When the driving motor drives the first rotating member Q1 to rotate, the chain can drag the bearing mechanism 420 to move linearly on the linear sliding rail H within a certain range.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 4 and 6, the supporting mechanism 420 further includes a support 422, a first beam L1, and a second beam L2 connected to at least one of the carrying arms. The support 422 is connected to the drive mechanism 410 via a first cross member L1. The support 422 may include a base 422a and a vertical beam 422 b. At least one carrying arm 421 is mounted on a base 422a by means of a vertical beam 422 b. The base may be connected to the drive mechanism 410 by a first cross member L1.

In practice, as shown in fig. 4 and 6, the base 422a may be connected to a power transmission member Q0 included in the reciprocating linear motion Q. The reciprocating linear motion structures Q included in the respective gear shaping structures B may be shared or independent. When the reciprocating linear motion structures contained in each gear shaping structure B are shared, if two or more gear shaping structures B are adopted for carrying out loading operation. First crossbeam L1 that each supporting mechanism 420 included links together, and second crossbeam L2 that each supporting mechanism 420 included links together for first rotation piece Q1 drives a second rotation piece Q2 and rotates, can make driving medium Q0 drive first crossbeam L1 linear motion, and then drags each supporting mechanism and carry out linear motion in linear slide rail H. Furthermore, since the first beams included in the respective supporting mechanisms are connected together, the second beams are also connected together. When the supporting mechanism 420 that adopts a plurality of gear shaping structures B to contain bears the photovoltaic product, can guarantee the stability of gear shaping structure B bearing photovoltaic product.

In an alternative mode, when the photovoltaic product handling apparatus is used in cooperation with a first carrying structure, as shown in fig. 1B and 4, the driving mechanism 410 is configured to drive at least one carrying arm 421 of the supporting mechanism 420 to enter and exit the first escape space 110 through the corresponding first entering and exiting notch 120 along each driving direction, so as to achieve a handling operation. The included angle between the first driving direction and the second driving direction can be intersected perpendicularly or intersected according to the actual situation. For example: when the bearing surface 100A of the first bearing structure is perpendicular to the side surface 100B of the first bearing structure, an included angle between the first driving direction and the second driving direction may be vertically intersected, and certainly, the included angle between the first driving direction and the second driving direction may also be an acute angle or an obtuse angle as long as it is ensured that the bearing arm 421 can enter and exit the first avoidance space 110 through the corresponding first entering and exiting notch 120. Here, the corresponding first entrance gap 120 of the bearing arm 421 refers to the first entrance gap 120 through which the bearing arm 421 enters and exits the first escape space 110. The bearing arms 421 can be used as gear teeth, and are inserted into the first avoiding space 110 or separated from the first avoiding space 110 through the first in-and-out notches 120 on the surface of the first bearing structure 100 in a one-to-one correspondence manner.

In one example, as shown in fig. 1A and 1B, when the surface of the first bearing structure 100 has a plurality of first access notches 120, and the first access notches are distributed in a row on one side of the first bearing structure 100, the plurality of gear shaping structures B shown in fig. 4 may be arranged in a row on one side of the first bearing structure 100 shown in fig. 1B. When the first loading structure 100 has a plurality of first in-out gaps 120 on the surface, and the first in-out gaps are distributed in two rows on two sides of the first loading structure 100, the plurality of gear shaping structures B may be arranged in two rows on two sides of the first loading structure 100.

For a clear explanation of the engagement process of the gear shaping mechanism with the first and second carrying structures, the first direction driving assembly is hereinafter referred to as a lifting driving assembly, and the corresponding first driving direction is shown as a1 in fig. 1B, and the second direction driving assembly is referred to as a horizontal driving assembly, and the corresponding first driving direction is shown as a2 in fig. 1B. It is to be understood that the following description is intended to be illustrative, and not restrictive.

As shown in fig. 1B and 4, when the driving mechanism 410 drives the supporting mechanism 420 to move along the first driving direction a1, the photovoltaic product supported by the supporting arm 421 moves along a direction approaching to and moving away from the supporting surface 100A of the first supporting structure; when the driving mechanism 410 drives the tray mechanism 420 to move along the second driving direction a2, the photovoltaic product carried by the carrying arm 421 moves along a direction close to and away from the side 100B of the second carrying structure.

As shown in fig. 1B, 2B and 4, when the first carrier structure 100 is positioned on a transport vehicle, the first carrier structure 100 may be considered a photovoltaic product tray, which is placed on the bed V of the transport vehicle. Based on this, the terminal device 500 shown in fig. 5 can control the driving mechanism 410 to drive the at least one carrying arm 421 of the supporting mechanism 420 to lift the photovoltaic product along the first driving direction a1 until the height of the bottom of the photovoltaic product is equal to or greater than the height of the carrying surface 100A of the first carrying structure (the carrying surface 100A of the first carrying structure and the bottom of the photovoltaic product are selected from the same reference plane), and then control the at least one carrying arm 421 of the supporting mechanism 420 to approach the side surface 100B of the first carrying structure along the second driving direction a 2. Since the first in-out notch 120 is located between the first lateral opening 120B of the side surface 100B of the first supporting structure and the first supporting surface opening 120A of the supporting surface 100A of the first supporting structure, a part of the supporting arm 421 can penetrate into the first avoiding space 110 through the first lateral opening 120B, and the other part can extend out of the first avoiding space 110 through the first supporting surface opening 120A, so that the photovoltaic product supported by at least one supporting arm 421 of the supporting mechanism a is located above the supporting surface 100A of the first supporting structure; then, the driving mechanism 410 is controlled to approach the first carrying surface opening 120A along the first driving direction a1 until the carrying surface 100A of the first carrying structure carries the photovoltaic product, and the portion of the carrying arm 421 above the carrying surface of the first carrying structure completely enters the first avoiding space 110; finally, the terminal device 500 shown in fig. 5 controls the driving mechanism 410 to approach the first lateral opening 120b along the second driving direction a2 until the bearing arm 421 exits the first escape space 110, and the loading operation is completed. If multi-layer loading is required, one or more first bearing structures can be placed on the loaded layer of photovoltaic products, and then loading is carried out on the first bearing structures according to the loading operation.

The photovoltaic product loading and unloading equipment can also realize unloading operation. When the first carrier structure carrying the photovoltaic product is located on the transportation vehicle, as shown in fig. 1B, fig. 2B, fig. 4 and fig. 5, the terminal device 500 may control the driving mechanism 410 to drive the at least one carrying arm 421 of the supporting mechanism 420 to fully extend into the first avoiding space 110 from the first lateral opening 120B along the second driving direction a2, and then drive the carrying arm 421 to extend out of the first avoiding space 110 from the first carrying-surface opening 120a along the first driving direction a1, so that the carrying arm 421 can support the photovoltaic product located on the carrying surface of the first carrier structure 100. Again, the terminal device 500 controls the driving mechanism 410 to drive the carrying arm to exit the first avoidance space in a direction close to the first lateral opening 120 b.

As can be seen from the above, as shown in fig. 1B and fig. 4, in each first access notch 120 formed on the surface of the first supporting structure 100, the first supporting surface opening 120A and the first lateral opening 120B are both communicated with the first avoiding space 110, the first supporting surface opening 120A is located on the supporting surface 100A of the first supporting structure, and the first lateral opening 120B is located on the lateral surface 100B of the first supporting structure. Meanwhile, each of the gear shaping structures B includes a driving mechanism 410 having two intersecting first and second driving directions, such that at least one carrying arm 421 of the driving racking mechanism 420 enters and exits the first avoidance space 110 through a corresponding first opening along each driving direction. Based on this, the first carrying structure can be placed on a transportation vehicle, the driving mechanism 410 included in each gear shaping structure B drives at least one carrying arm 421 of the carrying mechanism 420 along one driving direction to carry the photovoltaic product, and then the photovoltaic product is sent to the position above the carrying surface of the first carrying structure on the transportation vehicle along the other driving direction. On this basis, the driving mechanism 410 may drive the carrying arm 421 to move along a direction close to the carrying surface 100A of the first carrying structure until a part of the carrying arm 421 enters the first avoiding space 110 through the corresponding first lateral opening 120b, and the other part protrudes out of the first avoiding space 110 through the first carrying surface opening 120A, so that the photovoltaic product carried by the carrying arm 421 falls on the carrying surface 100A of the first carrying structure. At this time, the driving mechanism 410 may drive at least one carrying arm 421 of the supporting mechanism 420 to pass through the first avoidance space 110 from the corresponding first access notch 120 along the lateral direction close to the first carrying structure, so as to complete the loading operation of the photovoltaic product.

When the above photovoltaic product handling system comprises at least one second carrier structure for carrying photovoltaic products. As shown in fig. 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, and 4, the drive mechanism 410 included in at least one of the gear shaping mechanisms a is located at least in the second escape space 210. Of course, the supporting mechanism may be located in the second avoiding space as long as the supporting arm 421 of the supporting mechanism 420 is ensured to correspond to the second in-out notch 220. When the second supporting structure 200 can be used as a loading and unloading platform, the plane of the platform of the vehicle parking platform R can be located below the plane of the supporting surface 200A of the second supporting structure, and as long as the driving mechanism 410 drives at least one of the supporting arms 421 of the supporting mechanism 420 to slightly support the photovoltaic product, the driving mechanism can drive at least one of the supporting arms 421 of the supporting mechanism 420 to move towards the side direction close to the first supporting structure located on the transportation vehicle, thereby facilitating the operation.

As shown in fig. 1A, fig. 1B, fig. 2A and fig. 2B, the at least one second supporting structure 200 may be divided into two groups of second supporting structures, and the vehicle parking platform R is located between the two groups of second supporting structures 200, so as to ensure that the plane of the supporting surface 200A of each group of second supporting structures is higher than the plane of the platform of the vehicle parking platform R. When the transportation vehicle drives into the vehicle parking platform R, the carrying surface of the first carrying structure 100 on the transportation vehicle is relatively low, and the driving mechanism 410 shown in fig. 4 can ensure that the bottom height of the photovoltaic product is greater than or equal to the carrying surface 200A of the first carrying structure as long as the driving mechanism drives at least one carrying arm 421 of the carrying mechanism 420 to carry the photovoltaic product along the first driving direction a 1.

Next, as shown in fig. 1B, fig. 2A, fig. 2B and fig. 4, the driving mechanism 410 drives the supporting mechanism 420 having at least one supporting arm 421 along a direction approaching the side of the first supporting structure 100 along a second driving direction a2 until a part of the supporting arm 421 enters the first avoiding space 110 through the first lateral opening 120B and the other part of the supporting arm 421 passes through the first avoiding space 110 through the first supporting-surface opening 120A, so that the photovoltaic product supported by the supporting arm 421 is located above the supporting surface 100A of the first supporting structure. Then, the driving mechanism 410 drives the supporting mechanism 420 to have at least one supporting arm 421 close to the first supporting surface opening 120A along the first driving direction a1 until the photovoltaic product 300 is supported by the supporting surface 100A of the first supporting structure, and the supporting arm 421 enters the first avoiding space 110. Fig. 7 illustrates a state diagram of the first carrier structure carrying the photovoltaic product in an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 7, in the scenarios shown in fig. 1A and 1B, and fig. 2A and 2B, the first carrying structures 300 are symmetrically distributed in two rows to carry the photovoltaic products, and the loading operation of the photovoltaic products carried by each row of the first carrying structures 100 is completed by the gear shaping structures B in the corresponding group of the second carrying structures 200.

As shown in fig. 1A and 1B, fig. 2A and 2B, and fig. 4, after the photovoltaic product is carried by the carrying surface 100A of the first carrying structure, the driving mechanism 410 drives the carrying mechanism 420 to move in a direction close to the first lateral opening 120B along the second driving direction a2 until the carrying arm 421 exits the first avoiding space 110. On the basis, the driving mechanism 410 continues to drive the supporting mechanism 420 to approach the second lateral opening 220b along the second driving direction a2 until a part of the supporting arm 421 is received in the second avoiding space 210, and finally, the driving mechanism 410 drives the supporting mechanism 420 to approach the second supporting surface opening 120b along the first driving direction a1 until all the parts of the supporting arm 421 are received in the second avoiding space 210.

As shown in fig. 1A and 1B, fig. 2A and 2B, and fig. 4, when the first carrier structure 100 carries a photovoltaic product, the photovoltaic product on the first carrier structure 100 shown in fig. 2B can also be transferred onto the carrying surface 200A of the second carrier structure by using the gear shaping mechanism B. For example: as shown in fig. 1A and 1B, fig. 2A and 2B, and fig. 4, when the first supporting structure 100 carrying the photovoltaic product is located on the transportation vehicle, the terminal device 500 shown in fig. 5 may be used to control the driving mechanism 410 to drive the at least one carrying arm 421 of the supporting mechanism 420 along the second driving direction a2 to extend out of the second avoiding space 210 from the second lateral opening 220B, then extend into the first avoiding space 110 from the first lateral opening 120B, and then drive the at least one carrying arm 421 of the supporting mechanism 420 along the first driving direction a1 to extend out of the first avoiding space 110 from the first supporting surface opening 120A, so that the carrying arm 421 can support the photovoltaic product located on the supporting surface 100A of the first supporting structure. Then, the driving mechanism 410 is controlled to drive the at least one carrying arm 421 of the supporting mechanism 420 to exit the first escape space 110 in a direction close to the first lateral opening 120 b. Thereafter, the driving mechanism 410 adjusts the height of the supporting arm 421 according to the height of the supporting surface 200A of the second supporting structure, so that the photovoltaic product on the supporting arm 421 is supported by the supporting surface 200A of the second supporting structure, thereby achieving the unloading operation.

In an example, as shown in fig. 1A and 1B, fig. 2A and 2B, and fig. 4, when the carrying arm 421 exits the first avoiding space 110, the bottom of the photovoltaic product carried by the carrying arm 421 is higher than the carrying surface 200A of the second carrying structure, and may exit into the second avoiding space 210 along a direction close to the second lateral opening 220B until the photovoltaic product carried by the carrying arm 421 is located above the carrying surface 200A of the second carrying structure; and then the bearing arm is retracted into the second avoidance space 210 along the direction close to the bearing surface 200A of the second bearing structure, so that the bearing surface 200A of the second bearing structure is ensured to bear the photovoltaic product, and the unloading operation is realized.

In another example, as shown in fig. 1A and 1B, fig. 2A and 2B, and fig. 4, when the supporting arm 421 exits the first avoiding space 110, the bottom height of the photovoltaic product supported by the supporting arm 421 is lower than the supporting surface 200A of the second supporting structure, the driving mechanism 410 may be controlled to drive the at least one supporting arm 421 of the supporting mechanism 420 to be raised along a direction away from the second supporting surface opening 220A, so that the bottom height of the photovoltaic product supported by the supporting arm 421 is higher than the supporting surface 200A of the second supporting structure. Then, the carrying arm is driven to retreat into the second avoiding space 210 along the paying-off line close to the second lateral opening 220b until the photovoltaic product carried by the carrying arm 421 is located above the carrying surface 200A of the second carrying structure; the carrying arm 421 is retracted into the second avoiding space 210 along a direction close to the carrying surface 200A of the second carrying structure, so as to ensure that the carrying surface 200A of the second carrying structure carries the photovoltaic product, thereby realizing the unloading operation.

As shown in fig. 1B and fig. 4, when the first supporting structure 100 has a plurality of first access notches 120, the second supporting structure 200 has a plurality of second access notches 220, and the number of the gear shaping mechanisms a is multiple, if the first beam L1 is connected to the bottom of the supporting mechanism 420 included in the plurality of gear shaping mechanisms a, and the second beam L2 is connected to at least one supporting arm 421 included in the supporting mechanism 420 included in the plurality of gear shaping mechanisms a, if the first beam L1 and the second beam L2 need to access the first avoidance space 110 or the second avoidance space 210, then the supporting surface 100A of the first supporting structure needs to be provided with a first lateral opening traversing the first supporting surface opening 120A included in each first access notch 120, and the side surface 100B of the first supporting structure needs to be provided with a second lateral opening traversing the first lateral opening 120B included in each first access notch 120. Similarly, the carrying surface 200A of the second carrying structure needs to be provided with a first transverse opening traversing the second carrying surface opening 220A contained in each second access notch 220, and the side surface 200B of the second carrying structure needs to be provided with a fourth transverse opening traversing the second transverse opening 220B contained in each second access notch 220.

Therefore, the photovoltaic product loading and unloading device and the photovoltaic product loading and unloading system provided by the embodiment of the invention can realize automatic loading and unloading of photovoltaic products to a certain extent, and the loading process of the embodiment of the invention is described by taking a loading method as an example.

When the photovoltaic product handling system includes a first carrier structure located on the transport vehicle and at least one second carrier structure for carrying the photovoltaic product, the photovoltaic product is located on a carrying surface of the second carrier structure prior to step 801. At this time, step 801 includes: and driving at least one bearing arm of the bearing mechanism to extend out of the second bearing structure from a second opening of the bearing surface of the second bearing structure along a driving direction by using the driving mechanism, so that the photovoltaic product is supported by the at least one bearing arm of the bearing mechanism until the height of the photovoltaic product is greater than or equal to that of the bearing surface of the first bearing structure.
