Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a dense grid adhesive interconnect device, belonging to the field of optoelectronic technology. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of photovoltaic power generation technology, the main tasks now are to save silver and improve photoelectric conversion efficiency. With the further increase in silicon wafer size, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of N-type cells (HJT, Topcon) has improved, but silver consumption has also increased accordingly. Currently, photovoltaic cells mainly use three types of conductor pastes: front silver paste, back silver paste, and back aluminum paste. These three conductor pastes are screen-printed, dried, and co-sintered to form the electrodes at both ends. The front silver paste is the light-receiving electrode of the photovoltaic cell, directly affecting the cell's photoelectric performance. It consists of high-purity silver powder, glass oxide, and organic resin solvents. The glass oxide and other mixed organic solvents account for less than 5% of the processing cost. Silver powder accounts for 95% of the total cost, thus directly determining the total cost of the photovoltaic cell.

[0003] In recent years, the expansion of photovoltaic (PV) installations and the rapid growth of the PV industry have boosted the market prospects for front-side silver paste, leading to an increase in the market size of the front-side silver paste industry. According to data from the World Silver Institute, global PV cell installations exceeded 116 GW in 2019, requiring approximately 3,069 tons of front-side silver paste for solar cells. With PV energy maintaining an average annual growth rate of nearly 200 GW, the global cumulative PV installation capacity is projected to reach 7,000 GW by 2050.

[0004] In order to reduce silver consumption while improving conversion efficiency, a new battery cell production connection device was developed. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies and provide a dense grid adhesive interconnection device. This device employs a process where adhesive dots of a desired arrangement are first applied to both sides of the solar cell. Simultaneously, a main wire drawing module fabricates precision series-connecting metal wires. A metal wire transport module then transfers these wires, and an aerial bonding module uses the arranged adhesive dots to fix the series-connecting metal wires to the back of the solar cell and the front of adjacent solar cells. Through the cooperation of the metal wire fixing module and the pressing mechanism, reliable fixation and bonding of the metal wires to the multiple adhesive dots on the back of the solar cell are achieved. Similarly, through the cooperation of the conveyor module and the front curing module, reliable fixation and bonding of the metal wires to the multiple adhesive dots on the front of the solar cell are achieved. After being strung together, the metal wires and cells of the photovoltaic cell string are reliably fixed and bonded through multiple adhesive dots, achieving a metallized connection. The conductivity of the cell string can be judged in advance by EL (electromagnetic field), which is a brand-new process and equipment to replace the existing high-temperature welding process and equipment. Finally, the metal wires and cell grid lines are fully and stably electrically connected through lamination. It eliminates the need for printing welding pads (silver paste) on the cells in conventional string welding, and eliminates the need for flux and specially customized series wires in the manufacturing process.
