Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a welding strip preparation device and method, and in particular to a strip preparation device and method for BC battery welding. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of photovoltaic industry technology, especially in the application of back contact battery (BC battery) technology, the string welding process has gradually become a key technical link. The unique structural design of BC batteries - all electrodes are located on the back of the battery - provides advantages for improving battery efficiency, but also brings new manufacturing challenges. Especially in the string welding process, the welding on the back of the battery, the fixing method of the welding ribbon and its position accuracy have a crucial impact on the quality and production efficiency of the final product.

[0003] There are many options for BC battery ribbon making processes, each of which has different advantages and disadvantages for different application scenarios. The traditional whole string handling method requires the welding ribbon to be made at one time, and the whole string of welding ribbons must be transported and welded by equipment. Although this method can meet the needs in some specific applications, due to the limitations of the equipment, it is not compatible with battery strings of different lengths, and if a group of welding ribbons fails, the entire welding ribbon string needs to be remade, resulting in great waste.

[0004] Another common ribbon making process is to pull the odd-numbered ribbons and even-numbered ribbons separately and place them directly on the battery cells. This method has low production efficiency and may affect the overall quality of the battery due to the easy deviation of the ribbon placement accuracy.

[0005] In the market, some BC battery string welding uses infrared welding technology. This technology can achieve welding through infrared heating, thereby effectively reducing the operating cost of the equipment. However, infrared welding usually relies on the production of the entire string of welding ribbons, which makes its equipment compatibility poor. Once the welding ribbon fails, the entire welding ribbon string needs to be remade, resulting in a large waste of materials.

[0006] Therefore, the string welding process of BC cells still faces many challenges, including welding accuracy, equipment compatibility, production efficiency, and material waste. Solving these problems is crucial to improving the production efficiency of BC cells, reducing costs, and enhancing the market competitiveness of photovoltaic cells. Summary of the invention

[0112] Step 2: Cut all the welding strips 01 by the two cutting knife assemblies 350 of the positioning and cutting mechanism 300 to form the initial position of the welding strips 01, and then correct the welding strips 01 by two positioning comb assemblies, as follows:

[0113] Step 2.1, in the two cutter units 351 of each cutter assembly 350, the cutter seat 354 is driven by the cutter cylinder 352 to move along the second vertical guide rail 353, and the two cutters 355 move toward each other to cut off all the welding strips 01, forming the initial position of the welding strips 01;

[0114] Step 2.2, the cut welding strip 01 automatically slides into the corresponding positioning comb assembly area, and the positioning comb cylinder 362 drives the positioning plate 364 to move on the positioning comb guide rail 363 (moves along the Y-axis direction), pushes the welding strip 01 into the gap between the steel needles, corrects the position of the welding strip 01, and ensures that the welding strip 01 is neatly arranged and parallel to the X-axis direction;
