[0002] Photovoltaic cells, also known as solar cells, are usually made of semiconductor materials such as silicon, cadmium telluride, copper indium gallium selenide, etc. Silicon is the most commonly used material at present because of its stable performance and relatively low cost. When sunlight shines on the surface of the cell, the energy of the photon is absorbed by the semiconductor material, allowing the electron to obtain enough energy to jump from the valence band to the conduction band, thereby generating electron-hole pairs inside the semiconductor. These electrons and holes move to both ends respectively under the action of the internal electric field to form current and voltage. In the manufacturing process of the battery cell, moisture may be introduced. The presence of moisture will affect the performance and quality of the battery cell, so it needs to be dried.

[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the implementation regulations described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0023] Example 1: Reference Figure 1-8As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: a trough type drying self-heating recovery device for photovoltaic cell production, comprising: a supporting platform 3, a mounting plate 11 is fixedly installed on the top of the supporting platform 3, a condenser 19 and a compressor 20 are arranged on the top of the supporting platform 3, an evaporator 12 is arranged on the outer surface of the mounting plate 11, a connecting pipe 13 is fixedly connected to the first connecting end of the evaporator 12, one end of the connecting pipe 13 is fixedly installed on the first connecting end of the condenser 19, a mounting pipe 21 is fixedly connected to the second connecting end of the evaporator 12, one end of the mounting pipe 21 is fixedly connected to the first fixing end of the compressor 20, a fixing pipe 18 is fixedly connected between the second fixing end of the compressor 20 and the second fixing end of the condenser 19, a delivery pipe 14 is fixedly connected to the third connecting end of the evaporator 12, and an expansion valve 1 is arranged at one end of the delivery pipe 14 5, one end of the expansion valve 15 is fixedly connected with a guide pipe 16, one end of the guide pipe 16 is fixedly connected to the third mounting end of the condenser 19, a first fan 5 is arranged on the top of the support platform 3 near the front surface, the output end of the first fan 5 is fixedly connected with an outlet pipe 6, the input end of the first fan 5 is fixedly connected with an inlet pipe 7, the bottom of the support platform 3 is fixedly connected with support columns 4 near the four corners, a second fan 8 is arranged on the top of the support platform 3 near the rear surface, the output end of the second fan 8 is fixedly connected with an exhaust pipe 10, one end of the exhaust pipe 10 is fixedly connected to the fourth connecting end of the evaporator 12, the input end of the second fan 8 is fixedly connected with an exhaust pipe 9, a drying component 1 is fixedly installed on the top of the support platform 3 near one side edge, and a heating component 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the support platform 3 near a corner.
[0024] In this embodiment, when in use, the first fan 5 and the second fan 8 are turned on. Under the suction of the first fan 5, the ambient air enters the heating component 2 and is then heated. The heated ambient air is sent into the drying component 1 by the pressurization of the first fan 5, thereby completing the drying of the battery cell 109. Then, water is mixed in the gas to form high-temperature and high-humidity air. At this time, under the pressurization of the second fan 8, the high-temperature and high-humidity air is sent into the heat pump.

Multiple card plates 110 are fixedly connected to the relative inner walls of the plug-in flower basket 103. The multiple card plates 110 are grouped into two, and battery cells 109 are inserted between the inner walls of each two opposite groups of card plates 110. An air-leveling box 105 is arranged inside the other side of the drying tank 101, and a fixed cover 102 is arranged on the top of the air-leveling box 105. Air-leveling plates 106 are fixedly connected to the relative inner walls of the air-leveling box 105. Multiple drainage pipes 107 are opened on the outer surface of one side of the air-leveling box 105, and the drainage pipes 107 are used to introduce gas into the drying tank 101 to dry the battery cells 109.
[0026] In the present embodiment, when in use, when the ambient air is sucked into the air inlet box 201, it enters the interior of the air inlet box 201 through multiple air inlets 204. By energizing the electric heating bag 202, the heat inside the air inlet box 201 is increased, and the gas passing through the air inlet box 201 will be heated and enter the interior of the air uniforming box 105 through the air outlet pipe 6. Multiple air uniforming plates 106 are fixed inside the air uniforming box 105 to disperse the gas inside the air uniforming box 105, and then enter the interior of the drying tank 101 through multiple drainage pipes 107. The gas inside the drying tank 101 will enter the interior of the insert flower basket 103 through multiple air vents 108. At this time, the battery cell 109 is inserted between the multiple card plates 110 to complete the drying process of the battery cell 109.
[0027] The method of use and working principle of this device: When in use, turn on the first fan 5 and the second fan 8.

The heated ambient air is sent into the drying component 1 through the pressurization of the first fan 5, thereby completing the drying of the battery cell 109. Then, water is mixed in the gas to form high-temperature and high-humidity air.

The valve 15 can accurately control the flow of the refrigerant to ensure that the evaporator 12 can obtain an appropriate amount of refrigerant for heat exchange and temperature rise, and finally enter the drying component 1 to complete the cycle. When the temperature cannot meet the requirements, the electric heating package 202 is used for auxiliary heating. When in use, when the ambient air is sucked into the air inlet box 201, it enters the air inlet box 201 through multiple air inlets 204. By energizing the electric heating package 202, the heat inside the air inlet box 201 is increased, and then the air passing through the air inlet box The gas of 201 will be heated and enter the interior of the gas uniforming box 105 through the gas outlet pipe 6. A plurality of gas uniforming plates 106 are fixed inside the gas uniforming box 105 to disperse the gas inside the gas uniforming box 105. The gas then passes through a plurality of drainage pipes 107 and enters the interior of the drying tank 101. The gas inside the drying tank 101 passes through a plurality of air vents 108 and enters the interior of the insert flower basket 103. At this time, the battery cell 109 is inserted between the plurality of card plates 110 to complete the drying process of the battery cell 109.
