Description
Technical Field

[0002] In the solar manufacturing process, electroplating process is required to prepare metal grid lines. Generally, a seed layer (such as a metal copper layer) needs to be formed on a battery wafer (semi-finished product) first, and then the metal grid lines are electroplated on the seed layer. The reason is that when the metal grid lines are directly electroplated on the battery wafer, the contact force is small and it is easy to fall off, while the contact force between the metal grid lines and the seed layer is large, which can reduce the risk of the metal grid lines falling off.
[0003] After electroplating the metal grid lines, the seed layer needs to be removed. Generally, an acid solution is used to etch and remove the seed layer. As the etching progresses, the concentration of metal ions formed by etching in the etching tank will increase, resulting in a decrease in the etching efficiency. And the metal ion solution formed by etching is generally treated and then discharged as wastewater.

[0037] Embodiment 1
[0038] This embodiment provides an etching device for stripping a seed layer.
[0039] It should be noted that Figure 1 the X direction in is the process direction for stripping the seed layer, and the arrow direction in the pipeline is the solution flow direction.
[0040] Please refer to Figure 1, specifically, the etching device includes an etching tank 1 for etching the seed layer of the cell, a treatment tank 3 for treating the first etching solution, and a cleaning tank 2 for cleaning the cell with the etched seed layer. The treatment tank 3 includes a treatment device 31 and a recovery chamber 32 communicated with the treatment device 31. The treatment device 31 is used to reduce the concentration of metal ions in the first etching solution to form a second etching solution flowing into the recovery chamber 32.
[0041] The etching tank 1 and the treatment device 31 are communicated through a first pipeline 41 so that the first etching solution in the etching tank 1 can flow into the treatment device 31. The etching tank 1 and the recovery chamber 32 are communicated through a second pipeline 42 so that the second etching solution in the recovery chamber 32 can flow into the etching tank 1.
[0042] Among them, the first etching solution is an etching solution containing a high concentration of metal ions, and the second etching solution is an etching solution containing a low concentration of metal ions.
[0043] In the etching device of this embodiment, by communicating the cleaning tank 2 with the etching tank 1, the cleaning solution with a lower concentration of metal ions in the cleaning tank 2 flows back to the etching tank 1, achieving the purpose of diluting the concentration of metal ions contained in the first etching solution in the etching tank 1.
[0044] Specifically, in this embodiment, the cleaning tank 2 returns the cleaning solution to the etching tank 1 through a third pipeline 43 to dilute the metal ions in the first etching solution. The concentration of metal ions contained in the cleaning solution in the cleaning tank 2 and the concentration of metal ions contained in the etching solution in the etching tank 1 are monitored by a concentration meter 6. At an appropriate time, the valves and pumps on the third pipeline 43 are controlled by a controller to work, so that the cleaning solution with a lower metal ion concentration in the cleaning tank 2 flows back into the etching tank 1 through the third pipeline 43, thereby diluting the first etching solution containing a high concentration of metal ions in the etching tank 1, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the concentration of the first etching solution.
[0045] Embodiment 2
[0046] This embodiment provides an etching device. The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the cleaning solution in the cleaning tank 2 does not directly flow back into the etching tank 1 through the third pipeline 43, but the cleaning solution in the cleaning tank 2 first flows into the recovery chamber 32 through the third pipeline 43 and is mixed with the second etching solution in the recovery chamber 32 to first reduce the concentration of metal ions contained in the second etching solution. Then, the second etching solution with reduced metal ion concentration flows back to the etching tank 1 through the second pipeline 42 to dilute the first etching solution with a higher metal ion concentration in the etching tank 1.
[0047] Please refer to Figure 2, in this embodiment, the inflow end of the third pipe 43 is connected to the cleaning tank 2, and its outflow end is connected to the recovery chamber 32, so that the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 2 flows into the recovery chamber 32 through the third pipe 43 and is mixed with the second etching liquid in the recovery chamber 32, thereby diluting the metal ion concentration contained in the second etching liquid. The controller monitors through the concentration meter 6 and, at an appropriate time, controls the valves and pumps on the second pipe 42 and the third pipe 43 to work, so that the metal ion solution in the cleaning tank 2 flows into the recovery chamber 32 through the third pipe 43, thereby diluting the second etching liquid. Then, the diluted second etching liquid flows back into the etching tank 1 through the second pipe 42 to dilute the first etching liquid in the etching tank 1.
[0048] Optionally, the cleaning tank 2 returns the solution to the recovery chamber 32 through the third pipe 43, that is, the cleaning tank 2 and the recovery chamber 32 are connected through the third pipe 43, so that the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 2 first dilutes the second etching liquid in the recovery chamber 32, and the diluted second etching liquid then flows into the etching tank 1 and is mixed with the first etching liquid in the etching tank 1, thereby diluting the first etching liquid. By changing the way the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 2 flows back into the etching tank 1 in the first embodiment, a stepped dilution method can be used to dilute the first etching liquid, avoiding the first etching liquid in the etching tank 1 being mixed with solutions of different concentrations at the same time, which helps to stably dilute the metal ion concentration in the first etching liquid.
[0049] Embodiment Three
[0050] This embodiment provides an etching device. The difference between this embodiment and the second embodiment is that the outflow end of the third pipe 43 is not connected to the recovery chamber 32, but directly connected to the first pipe 41, so that the cleaning liquid flowing out of the cleaning tank 2 is mixed with the first etching liquid flowing out of the etching tank 1, and then flows into the processing device 31 in the processing tank 3 through the first pipe 41. The second etching liquid after being processed by the processing device 31 then flows back into the etching tank 1 through the recovery chamber 32 and the second pipe 42 in sequence, thereby stably reducing the metal ion concentration contained in the first etching liquid.
[0051] Please refer to Figure 3, in this embodiment, the inflow end of the third pipeline 43 is connected to the cleaning tank 2, and the outflow end of the third pipeline 43 is connected to the first pipeline 41. When the valves and pumps on the first pipeline 41 work to transport the solution in the etching tank 1 to the processing device 31 in the processing tank 3, the valves and pumps on the third pipeline 43 also work to transport the solution in the cleaning tank 2 into the first pipeline 41. As a result, the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 2 is transported to the processing device 31 in the processing tank 3 together with the first etching liquid in the etching tank 1. After being processed by the processing device 31 to form the second etching liquid, and then passing through the recovery chamber 32, the valves and pumps on the second pipeline 42 are opened to transport the obtained second etching liquid back to the etching tank 1, thereby diluting the first etching liquid.
[0052] Optionally, the cleaning tank 2 is connected to the first pipeline 41 through the third pipeline 43, so that the cleaning liquid in the third pipeline 43 is mixed with the first etching liquid in the first pipeline 41, thereby initially diluting the first etching liquid in the first pipeline 41. Then, the initially diluted first etching liquid enters the processing device 31 in the processing tank 3. By changing the interface position of the outflow end of the third pipeline 43, the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 2 can initially dilute the first etching liquid flowing out of the etching tank 1. After being processed by the processing device 31, the second etching liquid is formed and flows into the recovery chamber 32, and then flows back to the etching tank 1 through the second pipeline 42. This can not only reduce the metal ion concentration in the second etching liquid flowing back to the etching tank 1, but also reduce the impurities in the second etching liquid and improve the etching efficiency.
[0053] Embodiment 4
[0054] This embodiment provides an etching device. The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 3 is that an air knife mechanism 5 is additionally provided between the etching tank 1 and the cleaning tank 2. The etching liquid blown off by the air knife mechanism 5 flows into the third pipeline 43, and then flows into the first pipeline 41 together with the cleaning liquid in the cleaning tank 2. Then, it enters the processing device 31 in the processing tank 3 together with the first etching liquid flowing from the etching tank 1 to the processing tank 3 for processing. After processing, the second etching liquid is obtained. Then, the second etching liquid enters the recovery chamber 32 and then flows back to the etching tank 1 through the second pipeline 42 to dilute the metal ion concentration in the first etching liquid in the etching tank 1.
[0055] Please refer to Figure 4, in this embodiment, the inflow end of the branch pipe 431 is connected to the air shearing mechanism 5, and its outflow end is connected to the third pipe 43. The first etching solution blown down by the air shearing mechanism 5 will flow into the third pipe 43 through the branch pipe 431, and flow into the first pipe 41 together with the cleaning solution flowing out of the cleaning tank 2. Then, it enters the processing device 31 in the processing tank 3 together with the first etching solution flowing from the etching tank 1 to the processing tank 3. After being processed by the processing device 31, a second etching solution is formed. The second etching solution then flows back into the etching tank 1 through the second pipe 42 and mixes with the first etching solution in the etching tank 1, thereby diluting the first etching solution in the etching tank 1.
[0056] Optionally, an air shearing mechanism 5 is further provided between the etching tank 1 and the cleaning tank 2. The air shearing mechanism 5 is connected to the third pipe 43 through the branch pipe 431, so that the first etching solution blown down by the air shearing mechanism 5 flows through the branch pipe 431 and the cleaning solution in the third pipe 43 to the first pipe 41, and finally flows to the processing device 31 in the processing tank 3. The function of the air shearing mechanism 5 is to blow down the first etching solution on the battery chip, thereby preventing the first etching solution on the battery chip from entering the cleaning tank 2, thus avoiding the too rapid increase in the metal ion concentration of the cleaning solution in the cleaning tank 2, avoiding the cleaning solution from being replaced too quickly, and thus increasing the service life of the cleaning solution.
[0057] Embodiment Five
[0058] This embodiment provides an etching device. The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment Four is that the position of the air shearing mechanism 5 is downstream of the cleaning tank 2, rather than between the cleaning tank 2 and the etching tank 1. This makes the cleaning solution blown down by the air shearing mechanism 5 not the first etching solution on the battery chip, but the cleaning solution on the battery chip after being cleaned by the cleaning tank 2. Blowing down the cleaning solution on the battery chip can prevent the cleaning solution from being carried away by the cleaned battery chip, thereby avoiding a reduction in the total amount of metal ions and the amount of cleaning solution in the circulation system composed of the etching tank 1, the cleaning tank 2, and the processing tank 3, thereby reducing the waste of metal ions and avoiding the pollution of the environment by the metal ions carried away by the battery chip.
[0059] Please refer to Figure 5 , in this embodiment, the inflow end of the third pipe 43 is connected to the cleaning tank 2, and the outflow end of the third pipe 43 is connected to the first pipe 41. The air shearing mechanism 5 is connected to the inflow end of the fourth pipe 44, and the outflow end of the fourth pipe 44 is connected to the cleaning tank 2, and the valve of the fourth pipe 44 is always open, so that the cleaning solution blown down by the air shearing mechanism 5 can flow back into the cleaning tank 2 in real time, thereby reducing the loss of the cleaning solution in the cleaning tank 2.
[0060] Optionally, a wind shear mechanism 5 is also provided on the cleaning tank 2, and the wind shear mechanism 5 is connected to the cleaning tank 2 through a fourth pipe 44. By connecting the wind shear mechanism 5 to the cleaning tank 2 through the fourth pipe 44, the cleaning liquid blown off by the wind shear mechanism 5 can be returned to the cleaning tank 2 in real time, so as to avoid the battery cells taking away some metal ions in the cleaning liquid after passing through the cleaning tank 2, thereby avoiding the cleaning liquid content in the cleaning tank 2 from being sharply reduced after a long period of battery cell cleaning operation.
[0061] Embodiment 6
[0062] This embodiment provides an etching device. The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 5 is that the outflow end of the fourth pipe 44 is not connected to the cleaning tank 2, but is connected to the etching tank 1, so that the cleaning liquid blown off by the wind shear mechanism 5 flows into the etching tank 1 in real time, thereby diluting the metal ion concentration contained in the first etching liquid in the etching tank 1 in real time, thereby slowing down the speed of reduction of etching efficiency.
[0063] Please refer to Figure 6 In this embodiment, the wind shear mechanism 5 is arranged after the cleaning tank 2, and the wind shear mechanism 5 is connected to the etching tank 1 through the fourth pipe 44. The valve on the fourth pipe 44 is always open, so that the cleaning liquid containing metal ions blown off the battery cell by the wind shear mechanism 5 can flow into the etching tank 1 in real time, thereby reducing the metal ion concentration contained in the first etching solution in the etching tank 1 in real time, and then slowing down the speed of increasing the metal ion concentration in the etching tank 1.
[0064] Optionally, the wind shear mechanism 5 is connected to the etching groove 1 through a fourth pipe 44, so that the cleaning liquid containing metal ions blown off by the wind shear mechanism 5 can flow into the etching groove 1 in real time through the fourth pipe 44. Since the metal ion concentration contained in the cleaning liquid is relatively low, while the metal ion concentration contained in the first etching liquid in the etching groove 1 is relatively high, the metal ion concentration of the first etching liquid in the etching groove 1 can be reduced in real time, so as to slow down the rate of increase of the metal ion concentration in the etching groove 1.
[0065] It should be noted that: the treatment device 31 in the first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth embodiments includes a treatment chamber containing an oxidant, so that the metal ions in the first etching solution are oxidized by an oxidant such as hydrogen peroxide or ozone, which can oxidize copper ions into copper element, thereby reducing the concentration of the metal ions in the first etching solution; or, the treatment device 31 includes a concentrator including a high-pressure reverse osmosis membrane, and the low-concentration solution discharged from the concentrator is formed into the second etching solution;
[0066] Embodiments five and six can be improved in combination with embodiment three.
[0067] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, rather than limitations on the implementation manners of the present utility model. For those of ordinary skill in the art, various obvious changes, re-adjustments and substitutions can be made without departing from the protection scope of the present utility model. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation manners here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the claims of the present utility model.
