[0002] When producing busbar-less solar cells using the 0BB process, the adhesive film is easy to penetrate between the welding ribbon and the grid line during the lamination process, forming an insulating layer, which affects the EL, power and reliability of the photovoltaic module. For this reason, a low-weight adhesive film weighing less than 200 grams is usually set between the conventional adhesive film weighing more than 300 grams and the battery string. Since the low-weight adhesive film has a high degree of cross-linking and low fluidity when heated, it can effectively prevent the adhesive film from penetrating between the welding ribbon and the grid line and affecting the EL, power reliability and other problems of the module.

[0003] However, due to the low weight of the film, the film is prone to wrinkles during the stretching process of the cutting machine, and the wrinkles are mainly concentrated on the short sides. In the subsequent lamination process, the bubbles at the wrinkled position of the film cannot be discharged, and excessive accumulation of the film will cause the battery cell to crack.

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of this application, "plurality" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0031] In this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like 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 or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, for the convenience of explanation, the "first direction" and the "second direction" are defined as general directions rather than specific directions. For example, the "first direction" is a horizontal direction, and the "second direction" is another horizontal direction perpendicular to the "first direction", but it is not limited to this.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the film stretching mechanism 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a clamping jaw installation component 110 , a first movable clamping jaw 120 , a second movable clamping jaw 130 , a fixed clamping jaw 140 , a first movable driving component 150 and a second movable driving component 160 .

[0034] The first movable jaw 120 and the second movable jaw 130 are respectively movably connected to the jaw mounting component 110 and are arranged opposite to each other in a first direction. The first movable driving component 150 is connected to the first movable jaw 120 to drive the first movable jaw 120 to move along the first direction. The second movable driving component 160 is connected to the second movable jaw 130 to drive the second movable jaw 130 to move along the first direction. The fixed jaw 140 is connected to the jaw mounting component 110 and is located between the first movable jaw 120 and the second movable jaw 130.

[0035] The above-mentioned film stretching mechanism 100 is provided with a first movable jaw 120 and a second movable jaw 130 relative to each other and a fixed jaw 140 therebetween on the jaw mounting component 110. When pulling the film, the first movable jaw 120 and the second movable jaw 130 first clamp the two ends of the film. Driven by the first movable driving component 150 and the second movable driving component 160, the first movable jaw 120 and the second movable jaw 130 stretch the film toward both ends. At this time, the front end of the film is no longer wrinkled. Subsequently, the fixed jaw 140 between the first movable jaw 120 and the second movable jaw 130 clamps the film and completely clamps the front of the film to prevent the film from falling. In this way, wrinkles in the process of pulling out and placing the film and the subsequent poor lamination are avoided.

[0036] The clamping jaw installation component 110 is generally a strip-shaped structure extending along the first direction, so that the first movable clamping jaw 120, the second movable clamping jaw 130 and the fixed clamping jaw 140 are arranged in the first direction. The clamping jaw installation component 110 can be connected to the transfer device, so that the transfer device can drive the film stretching mechanism 100 to move as a whole, so as to pull the film out and lay it on the glass or battery sheet.

[0037] In one example, the film stretching mechanism 100 further includes a movable connecting component, which includes a movable guide rail 171, a first slider 172, and a second slider 173. The movable guide rail 171 is arranged on the clamp mounting component 110, and the movable guide rail 171 extends along the first direction. The first slider 172 and the second slider 173 are respectively slidably matched with the movable guide rail 171. The first movable clamp 120 is arranged on the first slider 172, and can move along the movable guide rail 171 with the first slider 172, and the first movable driving component 150 is connected to the first movable clamp 120 through the first slider 172. The second movable clamp 130 is arranged on the second slider 173, and can move along the movable guide rail 171 with the second slider 173, and the second movable driving component 160 is connected to the second movable clamp 130 through the second slider 173.

[0038] In the specific example shown in the figure, the first mobile driving component 150 is a telescopic cylinder. In this example, when the first mobile driving component 150 drives the first mobile clamping jaw 120 to extend, the first mobile clamping jaw 120 moves in a direction away from the second mobile clamping jaw 130. On the contrary, when the first mobile driving component 150 drives the first mobile clamping jaw 120 to retract, the first mobile clamping jaw 120 moves in a direction close to the second mobile clamping jaw 130.

[0039] It can be understood that in other examples, the first movable driving component 150 can also be moved closer to the second movable clamping jaw 130 when the first movable clamping jaw 120 is extended, and moved away from the second movable clamping jaw 130 when the first movable clamping jaw 120 is retracted.

[0040] It can be understood that in other examples, the first movable driving component 150 is not limited to being a telescopic cylinder, as long as it can drive the first movable clamping jaw 120 to extend or retract.

[0041] For example, in another example, the first moving driving component 150 is a motor screw transmission assembly. The motor screw transmission assembly can flexibly adjust the moving distance of the first moving clamp 120 according to the length of the film. More specifically, the motor screw transmission assembly includes a driving motor, a screw and a ball nut seat, the driving motor is connected to the screw, the screw cooperates with the ball nut seat, and the ball nut seat is connected to the first moving clamp 120. In this way, the first moving clamp 120 can be driven to move by driving the screw to rotate through the driving motor.

[0042] Likewise, the second mobile driving component 160 may also be a telescopic cylinder, a motor screw transmission assembly, or the like.

[0043] like Figure 2As shown, in one example, at least one of the first movable clamp 120 and the second movable clamp 130 includes a first telescopic driver 131 and a first clamp 132. The first telescopic driver 131 is movably connected to the clamp mounting component 110, and the first telescopic driver 131 is connected to the first clamp 132 to drive the first clamp 132 to extend or retract in a second direction. The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction.

[0044] The first telescopic driver 131 may be a telescopic cylinder, a motor screw transmission assembly, or the like.

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, in one example, the fixed clamp 140 includes a second telescopic driver 141 and a second clamp 142. The second telescopic driver 141 is movably connected to the clamp mounting component 110, and the second telescopic driver 141 is connected to the second clamp 142 to drive the second clamp 142 to extend or retract in the second direction.

[0046] The second telescopic driver 141 may be a telescopic cylinder, a motor screw transmission assembly, or the like.

[0047] Optionally, the number of the fixed jaws 140 is not limited to only one, and there may be multiple fixed jaws 140. For example, the number of the fixed jaws 140 is 2 to 10, specifically 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. Figure 1 In the specific example shown, the number of the fixed jaws 140 is 6. When there are multiple fixed jaws 140, the multiple fixed jaws 140 are arranged along the first direction. The multiple fixed jaws 140 are all located between the first movable jaw 120 and the second movable jaw 130.

[0048] Furthermore, the utility model also provides a film pulling device.

[0049] The film pulling device of one embodiment includes the above-mentioned film stretching mechanism 100 and the transfer mechanism. The film pulling device has at least two film stretching mechanisms 100 arranged opposite to each other. The transfer mechanism is connected to the clamping jaw mounting component 110 of the film stretching mechanism 100 to drive the film stretching mechanism 100 to move.

[0050] When the film pulling device pulls the film, the first movable jaw 120 and the second movable jaw 130 of one of the film stretching mechanisms 100 pull the front end of the film so that the front end of the film is no longer wrinkled, and the fixed jaw 140 clamps the film to completely clamp the front of the film to prevent the film from falling. The film stretching mechanism 100 moves backward and pulls out the film under the drive of the transfer mechanism, and the other film stretching mechanism 100 clamps and stretches the rear end of the film, and spreads the film flat on the glass or battery string under the drive of the transfer mechanism. In this way, the problem of wrinkles in the process of pulling out and placing the film and the subsequent poor lamination is avoided.

[0051] Furthermore, the utility model also provides a film cutting machine.

[0052] A film cutting machine according to an embodiment includes the above-mentioned film pulling device and a cutting device, wherein the cutting device is used to cut the film pulled by the film pulling device.

[0053] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0054] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims, and the description can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
