Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field related to screen printing, and in particular to a screen plate quick-changing jig. Background Art

[0002] Screen printing technology has been continuously improved since its origin in the 19th century, from materials to processes, and is currently widely used in screen printing in the photovoltaic industry. Screen printing is to form positive and negative electrodes and back electric fields on the front and back of the battery through printing and sintering, and then conduct the photogenerated electricity through an external optical path to complete the entire process of solar cell photoelectric conversion.

[0003] Screen printing technology uses the basic principle that the electrode part of the screen is permeable to the slurry, while the non-electrode part is not permeable to the slurry. When the printing scraper moves along the screen, the slurry is pressed into the mesh. At the same time, the scraper shears the slurry. The slurry is thixotropic. Under the shear stress of the scraper, the viscosity decreases rapidly. At the moment when the scraper presses down the screen and contacts the silicon wafer, the slurry in the mesh also contacts the silicon wafer. When the scraper passes over the screen, the screen is quickly reset by elastic force and the silicon wafer is out of contact. At this time, the slurry in the mesh is affected by the downward adhesion force of the silicon wafer and gravity on the one hand, and the adhesion force of the screen on the other hand. However, since the viscosity of the slurry is very low at this time, the force exerted by the screen on it is much smaller than the downward force. Therefore, during the rebound of the screen, the slurry in the mesh is transferred to the silicon wafer.

[0004] The widespread application of screen printing technology in the photovoltaic industry has led to a surge in demand for screens, and the complexity and fineness of screen patterns have also greatly increased. Therefore, laser processing technology has begun to be widely used in the processing of screen patterns.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] The specific implementation of the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0035] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the scheme of the present invention, the technical scheme in the embodiment of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiment of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiment is only a part of the embodiment of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. The components of the embodiment of the present invention generally described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiment of the present invention provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the invention claimed for protection, but merely represents the selected embodiment of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a screen plate quick-change jig includes, from bottom to top, a screen plate jig bottom plate 1 and a screen plate jig support plate 2. A screen plate return frame mechanism is installed in the middle of the screen plate jig support plate 2 through a return frame support plate mechanism, and a limit mechanism is installed on the return frame support plate mechanism or on the screen plate jig support plate 2 outside the return frame support plate mechanism. A cylinder push assembly 4 is installed in the middle of at least one side of the screen plate jig support plate 2, and the cylinder push assembly 4 is used to tighten the screen plate on the inner side.

[0037] A planar light source 6 is installed on the bottom plate 1 of the screen jig in the lower part of the screen return frame mechanism. A power meter 11 is installed on one side of the bottom plate 1 of the screen jig through a power meter mounting plate 10.

[0038] A plurality of buffers 8 are installed at the four diagonal positions of the bottom of the screen jig base plate 1 through the buffer mounting plate 7. The reasonable structural reinforcement of the jig base plate and the buffer structure around it can ensure that when different operators operate, the irregular feeding operation will not generate a large impulse to cause deformation of the jig, which greatly extends the service life of the jig.

[0039] A pressure reducing valve 20 is installed on the bottom plate 1 of the screen jig on one side of the cylinder push assembly 4 through a pressure reducing valve mounting plate 19. Different screen frames have different stress bearing capacities. The same cylinder outputs the same pressure when the pressure remains unchanged. The pressure reducing valve next to the tightening cylinder can ensure that the pressure on the upper small screen frame is reduced to reduce the pressure on the screen frame, ensuring that the screen frame is not over-clamped, resulting in deformation and causing the mesh pattern to be unable to be processed correctly.

[0040] The first embodiment of the present invention:

[0041] The screen return frame mechanism is the first screen return frame 5, the limiting mechanism is the screen limiting block 9, the first screen return frame 5 is installed on the screen fixture support plate 2 through the first return frame support plate 3, and a plurality of screen limiting blocks 9 are installed in sequence from the inside to the outside on the screen fixture support plate 2 on at least one side outside the first screen return frame 5; a cylinder pushing assembly 4 is installed on the screen fixture support plate 2 on at least one side outside the first screen return frame 5, the cylinder pushing assembly 4 includes a tightening cylinder 16 installed on the screen fixture support plate 2 through a cylinder mounting plate 12, the tightening cylinder 16 drives the upper cylinder pushing plate 13 to move toward or away from the inner first screen return frame 5, and a tightening cylinder buffer block 15 is installed on the cylinder pushing plate 13 through the screen pushing block 14.

[0042] The screen top block 14 is mounted on the cylinder top push plate 13 through a plurality of hexagonal marking pins 18, and a micro joint 17 is installed on the cylinder mounting plate 12 on one side of the tightening cylinder 16.

[0043] The above is applicable to the processing of screens of 750mm*750mm, 800mm*800mm and 1000mm*1000mm.

[0044] The second embodiment of the present invention:

[0045] The screen return frame mechanism is a second screen return frame 22, and the limiting mechanism is a screen limiting column 27. The second screen return frame 22 is installed on the screen fixture support plate 2 through the second return frame support plate 21. Several screen limiting columns 27 are installed in sequence from the inside to the outside on the second return frame support plate 21 outside the second screen return frame 22; a cylinder push assembly 4 is installed on the screen fixture support plate 2 on at least one side outside the second screen return frame 22, and the cylinder push assembly 4 includes a tightening cylinder 16 installed on the screen fixture support plate 2 through a cylinder mounting plate 12. The tightening cylinder 16 drives the upper cylinder push plate 13 to move toward or away from the inner second screen return frame 22, and a frame top plate 24 is installed on the cylinder push plate 13 through a frame top plate pad 25, a screen push strip 23 is installed on the inner side of the frame top plate 24, and buffer blocks 26 are installed on both sides of the inner side of the screen push strip 23.

[0046] The above is applicable to the processing of 356mm*356mm, 450mm*450mm and 550mm*550mm screens.

[0047] Among them, this device has a fool-proof design, and the limit mechanisms in the quick-change structure have laser engraved position prompts.

[0048] The quick-change structure of the present invention allows a variety of screen frame loading to be switched at any time, taking into account high compatibility and high portability. The proofing time for screens of different specifications is as long as several hours, but the replacement of the screen frame can be completed within 1 minute, and the clamping structure replacement from a large screen frame to a small screen frame can be completed by unscrewing a few screws. The top block on the cylinder has only one screw plus two hexagonal marking pins. During the quick-change process, only the screw position is changed, and the whole is inserted into the new position.

[0049] The working principle of the present invention is briefly described as follows:

[0050] The jig uses the screen jig base plate 1 and the screen jig support plate 2 as the main support of the whole set of jigs, and the main components and clamping mechanisms are installed on the screen jig support plate 2. The overall flatness and verticality with the XY motion platform are based on these two. The first screen return frame 5 supports the mesh of the screen and maintains the flatness. After the first return frame support plate 3 and the first screen return frame 5 are locked together by screws, they are connected to the screen jig support plate 2 and will not be disassembled. They can be used and replaced as a whole, and the flatness can be adjusted by the top screw on the side of the screw hole. The buffers 8 around the jig are used for shock absorption and load bearing to ensure that the impulse during the loading process of the large screen frame affects the flatness of the screen jig support plate 2; the cylinder push assembly 4 on the front and right sides of the jig is a clamping mechanism, which is responsible for clamping and rough positioning of the XY verticality after the screen frame is loaded. The clamping function is achieved through the extension and contraction of the cylinder. The tensioning cylinder 16 will push the screen along the XY direction to the screen limit block 9 during extension to complete the clamping. This is a conventional clamping method for large screen frames. If you need to deal with screen frames of different specifications, you need to change the position of the screen limit block 9 and the relative position of the screen top block 14 and the tensioning cylinder buffer block 15 to deal with unused clamping strokes. If a small screen frame needs to be loaded and used, the first return frame support plate 3 and the first screen return frame 5 are removed as a whole. After removal, the second return frame support plate 21 and the second screen return frame 22 are installed on the screen fixture support plate 2 after being tightened by screws. The second screen return frame 22 supports the mesh of the small screen frame and maintains its flatness. At the same time, the screen top strip on the right side is assembled according to the above-mentioned installation structure and installed as a whole on the original cylinder push plate 13 to complete the quick change. Then, according to the size of the small frame, the appropriate installation position of the screen limit column 27 is selected, and the screen push strip 23 is adjusted to the appropriate position. The clamping and loosening of the small screen frame are completed by the extension and retraction of the tightening cylinder 16.

[0051] The invention has high quick changeability through the structural arrangement of the return frame support plate mechanism and the limit mechanism, and the feeding method of screens of different specifications is relatively simple, which can meet the processing and use of products of various sizes and types.

Thus, features defined as "first", "second", etc. may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, "multiple" means two or more.

[0053] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection, it can be a mechanical connection, it can be an electrical connection, it can be a direct connection, it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0054] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention.
