Patent ID: 10103284

Abstract:
Apparatus for the industrial production of photovoltaic concentrator modules, consisting of a module frame, a lens disc, a sensor carrier disc and an electrical line routing arrangement, comprising the following features: a) a mount for the stress-free mounting of a module frame by means of clamping elements on both longitudinal sides and stop elements on both transverse sides, wherein the setting of the clamping elements takes place by means of the displacement and rotation of a switching rod, b) a device for a punctiform application of acrylic and a linear application of silicone onto the bearing surfaces of the module frame, c) a respective device for placing the sensor carrier disc or the lens disc, wherein these discs are transported in a stress-free fashion by means of special suction apparatuses and are emplaced with a centrally starting, predetermined contact pressure, d) a device for measuring the respective disc position and for positioning a sensor carrier disc or a lens disc, e) a device for the fine adjustment of the lens disc with respect to the CPV sensors of the sensor carrier disc by means of a camera, wherein the camera is adjusted in such a way that the position of its optical axis impinges on the geometrical midpoint of a CPV sensor, f) a device for curing the silicone application between the module frame and the respective disc by means of a plurality of UV light emitters, and g) devices for transporting the workpieces to be processed.
