Solar panel disassembling apparatus

A solar panel disassembling apparatus that is configured to separate a glass plate by removing a stacked film from a solar panel comprised of the glass plate and the stacked film including solar cells stacked on the glass plate, the solar panel disassembling apparatus comprising:

• a supporting plate that supports the bottom of a solar panel so that a top surface thereof is in contact with a glass plate;
• a moving scraper module that includes a first body connected to a first guide and moving in parallel with the supporting plate, a first elevator coupled to the first body to be movable up and down and moving up and down perpendicular to a movement direction of the first body, and a blade disposed over the supporting plate, connected to the first elevator, and changing in height with respect to the supporting plate when the first elevator is operated, and that scrapes the stacked film using the blade while moving forward in parallel with the supporting plate;
• a moving pressing module that includes a second body connected to a second guide and moving in parallel with the supporting plate, a second elevator coupled to the second body to be movable up and down and moving up and down perpendicular to a movement direction of the second body, and a pressing unit disposed over the supporting plate, connected to the second elevator, and changing in height with respect to the supporting plate when the second elevator is operated, that is disposed forward in a forward movement direction of the moving scraper module, and that presses and aligns the stacked film using the pressing unit ahead of the moving scraper module when the moving scraper module is moved forward;
• and
• a load cell that is disposed under the solar panel at a start position where the blade starts to come in contact with the solar panel;
• and a controller that brings the blade in contact with the solar panel by moving down the first elevator at the start position and that adjusts a position of the blade by controlling the operation of the first elevator in accordance with at least any one of magnitude and a variation of load sensed by the load cell,
• wherein the moving pressing module further includes a heating unit that induces thermal deformation of the stacked film by heating the outer surface of the stacked film.

• and
• a gap control rod that is disposed between the moving scraper module and the moving pressing module and forms a slit for passing the stacked film between the blade and the pressing unit by adjusting a gap,
• wherein the moving pressing module further includes a heating unit that induces thermal deformation of the stacked film by heating the outer surface of the stacked film.
