In the liquid, these pressure waves will form tiny bubbles, and these tiny bubbles are constantly formed and broken in the cleaning liquid, forming a process called "cavitation" phenomenon; when these bubbles break, the shock waves and liquid flows generated will produce a high-intensity cleaning effect on the surface of the object, and these shock waves and liquid flows have a cleaning effect on the residual glue and silicon powder on the surface of the crystal tray attached to the surface of the object, and can effectively clean them.

[0028] Compared with the deficiencies of the prior art, in the present invention, during cleaning, the crystal tray is transported to the cleaning tank 2 and is located on the crystal tray transport line 6, and is connected to the ultrasonic generator through the ultrasonic vibration plate 5, so that the ultrasonic vibration plate 5 generates tiny bubbles through ultrasonic vibration to impact and peel off the surface of the crystal tray (metal Cr) at high speed, which can quickly remove industrial residual glue and silicon powder, greatly improving the cleaning efficiency; moreover, since ultrasonic cleaning adopts a physical cleaning method, no chemical substances are required, which is harmless to the environment and human body, and can also avoid scratches and damages that may be caused by mechanical cleaning methods; in addition, compared with traditional cleaning methods, ultrasonic cleaning technology has lower energy consumption, reduces energy consumption and environmental pollution, therefore, the present invention can improve the cleaning effect of the metal crystal tray, and does not use any chemical reagents, is suitable for the field of large-scale photovoltaic intelligent automation production, can avoid the situation of empty glue in crystal bonding, can effectively ensure the effect of crystal bonding, thereby reducing the risk of slicing and stick falling, and improving the production capacity and yield of single crystal silicon wafer products, so that the present invention has the advantages of efficient cleaning, safety, environmental protection and high degree of automation.

Specifically, when the crystal tray is placed at the initial end of the crystal tray transport line 6, the crystal tray contacts the in-position block 15, causing the first telescopic component 13 to be compressed, so that the first sensing sheet 16 is sensed by the first sensor 12 when the first telescopic component 13 is compressed, thereby detecting that the crystal tray is in position.

[0033] like Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, a material sensing mechanism 17 is provided on the inner wall of the cleaning tank 2, and the material sensing mechanism 17 is located at the end of the crystal tray transport line 6; the material sensing mechanism 17 includes a second mounting seat 18, and a second sensor and a second telescopic component 20 are provided on the second mounting seat 18, and one end of the second telescopic component 20 is connected to a sensing block 21, and the sensing block 21 is located at the end of the crystal tray transport line 6, and the other end of the second telescopic component 20 is connected to a second sensing sheet, and the second sensing sheet corresponds to the second sensor.
