Due to their environmental protection and energy-saving characteristics, they are attracting more and more attention. Photovoltaic solar cell metallization is a key process that can effectively improve the conversion efficiency of photovoltaic cells and ensure their normal operation. The metallization process mainly includes three steps: paste printing, high-temperature sintering, and light injection; paste printing refers to the use of screen printing to print silver paste and silver aluminum paste onto the surface of the cell.
[0003] In the past, screen printers were exposed to the air more often, and the presence of dust in the environment would affect the quality of the slurry printing process.

[0036] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 A dust removal device for a photovoltaic solar cell screen printer provided in an embodiment of the present application includes a frame 1 and a dust removal component arranged on the frame 1, wherein the frame 1 is arranged at the feed end of the screen printer, and a conveyor belt 2 is arranged on the frame 1, and the conveyor belt 2 is used to convey the battery cells toward the screen printer. The dust removal component includes an electrostatic generating rod 3 and an adsorption plate 4, wherein the electrostatic generating rod 3 is horizontally arranged above the conveyor belt 2 along the width direction of the conveyor belt 2, and the adsorption plate 4 is arranged on the side of the electrostatic generating rod 3 facing the conveyor belt 2, and the electrostatic generating rod 3 applies static electricity to the adsorption plate 4.
[0037] The frame 1 is arranged before the feeding end of the screen printer, and a conveyor belt 2 is arranged on the frame 1. The battery cells enter from the feeding end of the conveyor belt 2, and then move toward the screen printer along with the conveyor belt 2, and slide onto the feeding belt of the screen printer at the unloading end of the conveyor belt 2. The static electricity generating rod 3 and the adsorption plate 4 constitute an electrostatic dust removal structure. When in use, the static electricity generating rod 3 is powered by a power supply, and static electricity is applied to the adsorption plate 4 by the static electricity generating rod 3. When the battery cells pass under the adsorption plate 4 along with the conveyor belt 2, the adsorption plate 4 carries static electricity, which can adsorb dust and tiny particles on the surface of the battery cells, thereby reducing foreign matter on the surface of the battery cells.
[0038] It should be noted that the static electricity generating rod 3 is horizontally arranged along the width direction of the conveyor belt 2, and its length is greater than the size of the battery cell along the width direction of the conveyor belt; the adsorption plate 4 is arranged on the lower side of the static electricity generating rod 3, and its length is adapted to the static electricity generating rod 3, so as to ensure that the foreign matter on the surface of the battery cell can be adsorbed. It should be noted that the internal structure principle of the static electricity generating rod 3 itself belongs to the existing technology, and the mature products on the market can be directly selected, or they can be modified according to the layout requirements, such as changing the installation and fixing method of the static electricity generating rod 3.
[0039] According to some embodiments of the present application, a first mounting frame 5 is provided on the frame 1, and the static electricity generating rod 3 is provided on the first mounting frame 5. Specifically, the first mounting frame 5 includes two L-shaped plates arranged on both sides of the frame 1, the lower ends of the two L-shaped plates are fixedly connected to the frame 1, and the two ends of the static electricity generating rod 3 are connected to the two L-shaped plates by bolts 52, so that the static electricity generating rod 3 is installed above the conveyor belt 2.
[0040] According to some embodiments of the present application, the position of the static electricity generating rod 3 on the first mounting frame 5 is adjustable to change its height relative to the conveyor belt 2. Specifically, waist-shaped holes 51 extending vertically are provided on the two L-shaped plates of the first mounting frame 5, and during installation, bolts 52 are passed through the waist-shaped holes 51 and connected to the static electricity generating rod 3. When the bolts 52 are moved along the waist-shaped holes 51, the installation height of the static electricity generating rod 3 can be adjusted, thereby changing the distance of the adsorption plate 4 relative to the battery sheet on the conveyor belt 2.
[0041] According to some embodiments of the present application, the dust removal assembly also includes a wiping structure for wiping the surface of the battery cell, and the wiping structure is arranged above the conveyor belt 2, and the wiping structure is located on the side of the electrostatic generating rod 3 away from the screen printer. Since the wiping structure is arranged in front of the electrostatic generating rod 3, when the battery cell moves with the conveyor belt 2, it must first pass through the wiping structure to wipe its surface. By wiping, foreign matter adhering to the surface of the battery cell can be loosened, or some large particles can be directly wiped off. After wiping, the foreign matter on the surface of the battery cell is reduced, and then the battery cell is subjected to electrostatic adsorption and dust removal, which is conducive to improving the efficiency of removing foreign matter on the surface of the battery cell.
[0042] According to some embodiments of the present application, the wiping structure includes a second mounting frame 6 and a wiping cloth 7, wherein the second mounting frame 6 is fixedly mounted on the frame 1, and the wiping cloth 7 is mounted on the second mounting frame 6, and the lower edge of the wiping cloth 7 contacts the surface of the battery cell to form a wipe. During operation, the battery cell moves toward the feed end of the screen printer along with the conveyor belt 2, and during the conveyance of the battery cell, the surface of the battery cell contacts and is wiped by the lower edge of the wiping cloth 7.
[0043] Specifically, the second mounting frame 6 includes two L-shaped plates arranged on both sides of the frame 1, the lower ends of the two L-shaped plates are fixedly connected to the frame 1, and a hanging plate 61 is connected between the upper ends of the two L-shaped plates. The top of the wiping cloth 7 is fixedly set on the hanging plate 61 by bonding, or by crimping with screws, magnets, etc. The wiping cloth 7 is in a suspended state, and its lower edge contacts the surface of the battery cell to form a wipe. It should be noted that the size of the wiping cloth 7 along the width direction of the conveyor belt 2 is adapted to the battery cell, so as to ensure that the foreign matter on the surface of the battery cell can be wiped.
[0044] According to some embodiments of the present application, a counterweight rod 71 is provided at the lower edge of the wiping cloth 7, and the lower edge of the wiping cloth 7 wraps the counterweight rod 71. By providing the counterweight rod 71 at the lower part of the wiping cloth 7, a certain contact force can be created between the wiping cloth 7 and the surface of the battery cell, thereby improving the wiping effect on the surface of the battery cell.
[0045] According to some embodiments of the present application, an adjustment plate 8 is provided on the second mounting frame 6, and the adjustment plate 8 is rotatably connected to the second mounting frame 6, and the adjustment plate 8 is used to change the height of the lower edge of the wiping cloth 7 relative to the conveyor belt 2 after rotation. By rotatably connecting the adjustment plate 8 to the second mounting frame 6, the wiping cloth 7 can be lifted up after rotating the adjustment plate 8, so that the distance between the lower edge of the wiping cloth 7 and the surface of the battery cell changes, so that the inclination angle of the adjustment plate 8 can be changed according to the thickness of the battery cell, so that the lower edge of the wiping cloth 7 is slightly lower than the surface of the battery cell, which can not only form pressure wiping on the surface of the battery cell, but also avoid the end surface of the battery cell pushing the counterweight rod 71 to move significantly to the left, thereby facilitating the battery cell to enter between the lower edge of the wiping cloth 7 and the conveyor belt 2.
[0046] It should be noted that after the thickness of the battery cell changes, if the height of the bottom edge of the wiping cloth 7 is not adjusted, it is possible that the bottom edge of the wiping cloth 7 is significantly lower than the surface of the battery cell, that is, the bottom edge of the wiping cloth 7 is close to the bottom surface of the battery cell. At this time, when the battery cell moves with the conveyor belt 2 to the wiping cloth 7, the end face of the battery cell will push the counterweight rod 71 to move significantly to the left, which is not conducive to the battery cell quickly entering between the bottom edge of the wiping cloth 7 and the conveyor belt 2.
[0047] Specifically, the two ends of the adjustment plate 8 are respectively connected to the two L-shaped plates on the second mounting frame 6. A fixing rod 81 and a rotating rod 82 are provided in parallel at the ends of the adjustment plate 8. The fixing rod 81 and the rotating rod 82 both pass through the L-shaped plate. An arc-shaped slide groove 62 is provided on the L-shaped plate. The rotating rod 82 is provided in the arc-shaped slide groove 62. The center of the arc-shaped slide groove 62 coincides with the center of the fixing rod 81. A nut 83 is provided at the end of the rotating rod 82. The position of the adjustment plate 8 is locked by rotating and screwing the nut 83 into contact with the outer side of the L-shaped plate and pressing it.
[0048] According to some embodiments of the present application, there are two conveyor belts 2, which are arranged in parallel and at the same height on opposite sides of the frame 1. The two conveyor belts 2 have the same movement direction and speed, that is, the two side areas of the battery cell along the width direction of the conveyor belt 2 are in contact with the two conveyor belts 2.
[0049] According to some embodiments of the present application, each of the conveyor belts 2 includes a driving wheel 21 and a driven wheel 22, and the driving wheels 21 and the driven wheels 22 of the two conveyor belts 2 are respectively connected through a wheel axle 23, and also include a driving assembly, and the driving assembly is used to drive the conveyor belt 2. During operation, the two driving wheels 21 are driven to rotate synchronously through the driving assembly, so that the two conveyor belts 2 operate synchronously.
[0050] According to some embodiments of the present application, the driving assembly includes a motor 24 and a driving wheel 25, wherein the driving wheel 25 is disposed on a wheel shaft 23 connecting two driving wheels 21, and an output shaft of the motor 24 forms a transmission connection with the driving wheel 25 to drive the wheel shaft 23 to rotate, thereby driving the two driving wheels 21 to rotate, so that the conveyor belt 2 operates. Specifically, the output shaft of the motor 24 can form a transmission connection with the driving wheel 25 through a chain drive or a belt drive.
[0051] The specific implementation methods described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the utility model in detail. It should be understood that the above description is only the specific implementation method of the utility model and is not used to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
