[0002] The invention relates to the technical field of solar cell production, and in particular to a solar cell light injection module. Background Art

[0003] With the development of solar cell technology, the development of high-efficiency cells has received more and more attention. Heterojunction cells have attracted much attention from researchers at home and abroad due to their low process temperature, high conversion efficiency, good cell stability and low temperature coefficient.

[0031] The technical solution of the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the solar cell light injection module of the present invention comprises a frame 1, an optical module 2 and a transmission device 3 respectively arranged on the frame 1, and the transmission device 3 transmits the solar cell 100 along the front-rear direction.

[0033] The optical module 2 is used to provide illumination. The optical module 2 includes a plurality of independently controllable light source devices. The light-emitting front of the light source device is arranged toward the direction of the solar cell. The light-emitting front of the plurality of light source devices is sequentially arranged along the transmission direction of the transmission device 3 or along the transmission direction perpendicular to the transmission device 3 to form at least one group of first contour surfaces S with the middle portion concave away from the solar cell 100. The light beams emitted by each light source device located on the first contour surface S are incident on the solar cell to form a light beam. Along the direction of the first contour surface S, the width W1 of the first contour surface S is greater than the width W2 of the light beam. In this way, the light beams at different parts of the first contour surface S can be superimposed, so that the light beams emitted by each light source device can be converged into a high-intensity light band incident on the surface of the solar cell 100. Even if the light intensity incident on the surface of the solar cell 100 is increased, in this embodiment, compared with the prior art, the light intensity can be increased by 50%, thereby improving the conversion efficiency of the solar cell.

[0034] In this embodiment, the incident angle a of the light source device at different positions of the first contour surface S is between 1 and 90 degrees.

[0035] The light source device may be a light bead 211 , and each light bead 211 is arranged in a matrix along the transmission direction of the transmission device 3 and along the transmission direction perpendicular to the transmission device 3 .

[0036] Along the direction of the first contour surface S, the tangent lines of the light beads 211 in the same column / row at the position of the first contour surface S all extend along different straight line directions, such as Figure 7 shown.

[0037] Alternatively, along the direction of the first contour surface S, the tangent lines of the plurality of light beads 211 arranged continuously in the same column / row at the position of the first contour surface S extend in the same straight line direction, such as Figure 8 shown.

[0038] The light source device may also use a light strip 212, wherein a plurality of light strips 212 are sequentially arranged along the transmission direction of the transmission device 3 to form at least one group of first contour surfaces S, and each light strip 212 extends along the transmission direction perpendicular to the transmission device 3, or a plurality of light strips 212 are sequentially arranged along the transmission direction perpendicular to the transmission device 3 to form at least one group of first contour surfaces S, and each light strip 212 extends along the transmission direction of the transmission device 3, such as Fig. 9 shown.

[0039] In a specific implementation manner, the light-emitting front surfaces of the plurality of light source devices are sequentially arranged along the transmission direction of the transmission device 3 to form a group of first contour surfaces S. Along the direction perpendicular to the transmission direction of the transmission device, a row of solar cells 100 is transmitted on the transmission device 3. Of course, the transmission device 3 can also simultaneously transmit multiple rows of solar cells 100 at intervals, such as Figure 1 to Figure 6Alternatively, the transmission device 3 is provided with multiple columns, and each column of the transmission device 3 is arranged in parallel and spaced apart along a transmission direction perpendicular to the transmission device 3, i.e., the left-right direction, and each column of the transmission device 3 transmits a column of solar cells 100. In this embodiment, the optical module 2 extends along a transmission direction perpendicular to the transmission device 3, i.e., the left-right direction.

[0040] In another specific embodiment, a row of solar cells 100 are transmitted on the transmission device 3 in a direction perpendicular to the transmission direction of the transmission device 3, and the light-emitting front faces of the plurality of light source devices are sequentially arranged in a direction perpendicular to the transmission direction of the transmission device 3 to form a group of first contour surfaces S, which are not shown in the figure. In this embodiment, the optical module 2 extends in the transmission direction of the transmission device 3, i.e., in the front-to-back direction.

[0041] In another specific embodiment, along the direction perpendicular to the transmission direction of the transmission device 3, the transmission device 3 transmits multiple columns of solar cells 100, or the transmission device 3 is provided with multiple columns, and each column of transmission devices 3 is arranged in parallel along the transmission direction perpendicular to the transmission device 3, that is, the left and right direction, and each column of transmission devices 3 transmits a column of solar cells 100. The light-emitting front faces of the multiple light source devices are sequentially arranged along the transmission direction perpendicular to the transmission device 3 to form multiple groups of first contour surfaces S, and each group of first contour surfaces S corresponds to a column of solar cells 100, which is not shown in the figure. In this embodiment, the optical module 2 extends along the transmission direction of the transmission device 3, that is, the front-to-back direction.

[0042] Specifically, the optical module 2 also includes a light source box body 22 and a fixing plate disposed in the light source box body 22, the fixing plate having a mounting surface for mounting each light source device, the mounting surface being at least one set of second contour surfaces extending along the transmission direction of the transmission device 3 or perpendicular to the transmission direction of the transmission device 3, the second contour surface corresponding to the first contour surface. That is, in the above-mentioned several embodiments, the mounting surface for mounting the light source device is set to a structure in which the middle is concave away from the solar cell 100, so that after each light source device is installed on the mounting surface, the light-emitting surfaces of each light source device are sequentially arranged to form a corresponding structure.

[0043] The optical module 2 also includes a plurality of condensing lens devices (not shown in the figure) covered outside the light emitting surface of the light source device. Preferably, a condensing lens device is covered outside the light emitting surface of each light source device.

[0044] The optical module 2 further includes a first cooling device for cooling the light-emitting back side of the light source device. In this embodiment, the first cooling device is a water cooling device.

By setting up a water cooling device, the heat on the back side of the light source device can be heat-dissipated by heat exchange with cold water. The water cooling device uses two independently arranged cooling water circuits for cooling, which can improve the cooling effect; moreover, when one cooling water circuit fails, the light-emitting back side of the light source device can also be cooled by the other cooling water circuit.

Along the transmission direction of the transmission device, the optical modules 2 are arranged in parallel in multiple rows. Two adjacent rows of optical modules 2 can be arranged without a gap or with a certain distance between them.

When the wind knife device is used to cool the solar cell, the exhaust of the wind knife device is continuous, and the surface of the solar cell 100 covered by the cooling gas is also continuous, so that the temperature of the solar cell 100 can be cooled more evenly.
