Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of semiconductor or photovoltaic material processing, and particularly relates to a rectifying device and a transporting device. Background Art

[0002] Currently, in the production process of solar cells, laser scribing is used to divide the solar cell into two halves to obtain two half-cell pieces. The cross-section of the half-cell piece is the cross-section of an unpassivated silicon wafer. Due to the increased recombination at the cross-section edge of the half-cell piece, the conversion efficiency will decrease by 0.2 - 0.3%. For heterojunction solar cells, because of their higher open-circuit voltage, the efficiency will decrease more after laser scribing. The reduction in the efficiency of solar cells caused by the above cutting will directly lead to a decrease in the power of the module made of half-cell pieces. Therefore, it is necessary to perform passivation coating on the cut part. Passivation coating refers to forming a passivation film on the surface of the cell by deposition, so as to reduce minority carrier recombination, provide a field passivation effect, and reduce the reflectivity.

[0003] When performing the cross-section passivation process, an automated device is required to transport the half-cell pieces to the passivation device. During the transportation process, the half-cell pieces on the conveyor line need to be transported and stacked one by one into a drawer-type cassette. It is very difficult to ensure that hundreds of silicon wafers are accurately placed into the cassette and stacked neatly. If the silicon wafers are not stacked neatly in the cassette, the process quality of the subsequent cross-section passivation process will be reduced.

[0004] In the related art, usually, an image is taken, and then a Selective Compliance Assembly Robot Arm (SCARA) is accurately controlled according to the captured image to place the half-cell pieces into the cassette. However, this method still cannot stack the half-cell pieces placed in the cassette neatly enough, thus reducing the process quality of the subsequent cross-section passivation process.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 5As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present application provides a rectifying device 100 for rectifying a sheet material 200 placed on a placing part. The rectifying device 100 includes: a support base 101 having a first feed port 1011 penetrating through the support base 101, and the first feed port 1011 is configured to allow the sheet material 200 to pass through. After being rectified, the sheet material 200 enters the subsequent station through the first feed port 1011 from above the first feed port 1011; a driving source 102 is arranged below the support base 101 and is configured to provide driving force; at least two sets of transmission components 103, at least part of the transmission components 103 are arranged below the support base 101, and are all in transmission connection with the driving source 102, and are configured to transmit driving force under the drive of the driving source 102; at least two rectifying components 106 are respectively arranged on two sides adjacent to the first feed port 1011, and each rectifying component 106 is arranged in one-to-one correspondence with each transmission component 103. The rectifying component 106 has a contacting part 1063 and a rectifying part 1064 connected to each other. The contacting part 1063 contacts the corresponding transmission component 103, and the rectifying part 1064 is arranged facing the side of the sheet material 200. The rectifying component 106 is configured to move towards the sheet material 200 under the push of the corresponding transmission component 103 to rectify the sheet material 200 from the side of the sheet material 200.

[0033] Exemplarily, the sheet material 200 is a silicon wafer or a glass substrate. The driving source 102 is a motor. The transmission component 103 may include at least one of a synchronous pulley, a synchronous belt, a shaft structure, an eccentric member 105, etc. The contacting part 1063 is exemplarily a strip structure, and the rectifying part 1064 is exemplarily a block structure. The rectifying part 1064 is connected to the side of the contacting part 1063 close to the first feed port 1011.

[0034] Exemplarily, the placing part may be a part of a lifting device. The placing part can move up or down. When rectifying the sheet material 200, the placing part is located above the first feed port 1011, so as to rectify the sheet material 200 above the first feed port 1011. After the sheet material 200 is rectified, the placing part can pass through the first feed port 1011 to below the first feed port 1011, so that the rectified sheet material 200 can descend from above the first feed port 1011 and pass through the first feed port 1011 to enter the subsequent station.

[0035] Exemplarily, the placing part may also be a support structure arranged at the first feed port 1011. When rectifying the sheet material 200, the placing part is in an open state and supports the sheet material 200. After the sheet material 200 is rectified, the placing part contracts, causing the sheet material 200 to fall into the first feed port 1011.

[0036] In the above embodiments, the driving source 102 can transmit the rotational force to at least two transmission components 103, and respectively push at least two shaping components 106 to shape the sheet material 200 from the side of the sheet material 200 through the at least two transmission components 103. After the sheet material 200 is shaped, it enters the subsequent station (such as a magazine) through the first feeding port 1011, which can ensure that the sheet material 200 is stacked neatly.

[0037] In some embodiments, the material of the shaping part 1064 is poly(ether-ether-ketone) (PEEK). The PEEK material has relatively high strength, so as to reduce the wear of the shaping part 1064.

[0038] In some embodiments, as Figure 3a shown, the driving source 102 has a driving shaft configured to provide a rotational force. Among them, the transmission component 103 includes: a driving wheel 1031 connected to the driving shaft; a core shaft 1034 penetrating through the support base 101, and one end of the core shaft 1034 is connected to the eccentric member 105; the eccentric member 105 is horizontally arranged above the support base 101, the eccentric member 105 contacts the corresponding contact part 1063, the eccentric member 105 is connected to one end of the core shaft 1034, the rotation axis of the eccentric member 105 deviates from the geometric center of the eccentric member 105, and the eccentric member 105 is configured to rotate under the drive of the core shaft 1034 and push the corresponding shaping component 106 to move the corresponding shaping component 106 towards the sheet material 200; a driven wheel 1032 connected to the other end of the core shaft 1034; and a synchronous belt 1033 respectively connected to the driving wheel 1031 and the driven wheel 1032.

[0039] Specifically, at least two driving wheels 1031 of the transmission components 103 can be sleeved on the driving shaft, so that the driving wheels 1031 of at least two transmission components 103 rotate. For any transmission component 103, the synchronous belt 1033 can transmit the rotational force of the driving wheel 1031 in this transmission component 103 to the driven wheel 1032, and then the rotation of the driven wheel 1032 can drive the core shaft 1034 to rotate. In this way, the rotating core shaft 1034 can drive the eccentric member 105 to rotate. Therefore, through this structure, one driving source 102 can drive at least two eccentric members 105 to rotate. Then, since each eccentric member 105 can drive a shaping component 106 to shape the sheet material 200 from one side of the sheet material 200, one driving source 102 can drive at least two groups of shaping components 106 to shape the sheet material 200 simultaneously from at least two sides, improving the shaping effect of the sheet material 200.

[0040] Exemplarily, the eccentric member 105 can be an eccentric wheel. Figure 1Shows the state when the edge of the eccentric member 105 is closest to the first feeding port 1011. At this time, the regularization assembly 106 is pushed to the regularization position for regularizing the sheet material 200. Figure 2 Shows the state when the edge of the eccentric member 105 is farthest from the first feeding port 1011. At this time, the regularization assembly 106 is in a state waiting for regularization.

[0041] In some embodiments, the eccentric member 105 can be quenched during production to improve the strength of the eccentric member 105 and increase the wear resistance of the material.

[0042] In some embodiments, as Figures 1 to 5 shown, the regularization device 100 further includes: at least two fixing members 107, which are respectively arranged on the support base 101; at least two elastic members 108, each elastic member 108 is arranged in one-to-one correspondence with each fixing member 107, and each elastic member 108 is arranged in one-to-one correspondence with each regularization assembly 106. Wherein, the first end of the elastic member 108 is connected to the corresponding fixing member 107, and the second end of the elastic member 108 is connected to the corresponding regularization assembly 106; at least two guiding members 109, which are respectively arranged on the support base 101, one end of the guiding member 109 is connected to the corresponding regularization assembly 106, and the other end of the guiding member 109 is connected to the corresponding fixing member 107.

[0043] Among them, the elastic member 108 exemplarily includes: a tension spring or a compression spring. Exemplarily, the fixing member 107 is screwed with a first screw, and the regularization assembly 106 is screwed with a second screw. The pull rings at both ends of the tension spring are respectively sleeved on the first screw and the second screw. Specifically, when the regularization assembly 106 moves towards the direction close to the first feeding port 1011, the guiding member 109 can guide the moving direction of the regularization assembly 106, and the elastic member 108 is stretched. After the regularization is completed, the elastic member 108 can pull the regularization assembly 106 away from the first feeding port 1011, that is, the elastic member 108 is used to reset the regularization assembly 106 after the sheet material 200 is regularized, so as to facilitate the placement of the next sheet material 200 to be regularized above the first feeding port 1011.

[0044] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the guiding member 109 includes: a linear bearing 1091, and the linear bearing 1091 is connected to the fixing member 107; a guiding shaft 1092, the first end of the guiding shaft 1092 is connected to the regularization assembly 106, and the second end of the guiding shaft 1092 is slidably connected to the linear bearing 1091.

[0045] Specifically, the fixing member 107 may be provided with a first mounting hole. The linear bearing 1091 may pass through the first mounting hole and be fixed. The rectifying assembly 106 may have a second mounting hole. The first end of the guide shaft 1092 may be inserted into the second mounting hole, and the first end of the guide shaft 1092 may be fixed to the rectifying assembly 106 by screws. With this structure, the guide shaft 1092 can move along the extending direction of the linear bearing 1091, thereby guiding the moving direction of the rectifying assembly 106, and thus improving the rectifying effect of the rectifying assembly 106 on the sheet material 200.

[0046] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, at both ends of each rectifying assembly 106 in its extending direction, they may be respectively connected to the first ends of two guide shafts 1092. The second ends of the two guide shafts 1092 may be respectively slidably connected to two linear bearings 1091. The two linear bearings 1091 are respectively connected to the fixing member 107, thereby improving the guiding effect on the rectifying assembly 106 and preventing the rectifying assembly 106 from tilting.

[0047] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5 shown, the number of rectifying assemblies 106 is two, namely the first rectifying assembly 1061 and the second rectifying assembly 1062. The first rectifying assembly 1061 is disposed on the first side 10111 of the first feeding port 1011. The first rectifying assembly 1061 is configured to rectify the sheet material 200 from a first direction (such as the x direction in Figure 1 and Figure 2 ). The second rectifying assembly 1062 is disposed on the second side 10112 of the first feeding port 1011. The second rectifying assembly 1062 is configured to rectify the sheet material 200 from a second direction (such as the y direction in Figure 1 and Figure 2 ). Among them, the first direction and the second direction form an angle (such as being perpendicular to each other); the first rectifying assembly 1061 includes a first rectifying part 10611, the second rectifying assembly 1062 includes a second rectifying part 10621, and the length of the first rectifying part 10611 in the first direction is greater than the length of the second rectifying part 10621 in the second direction; there are two guide shafts 1092, namely the first guide shaft and the second guide shaft. The first end of the first guide shaft is connected to the first rectifying assembly 1061, the first end of the second guide shaft is connected to the second rectifying assembly 1062, there are two linear bearings 1091, namely the first linear bearing and the second linear bearing. The first linear bearing is slidably connected to the second end of the first guide shaft, and the second linear bearing is slidably connected to the second end of the second guide shaft. Among them, the first linear bearing is a double-liner linear bearing, and the second linear bearing is a single-liner linear bearing.

[0048] Among them, the sheet material 200 generally has upper and lower surfaces and a plurality of side surfaces connecting the upper and lower surfaces. The first direction can be a direction perpendicular to one of the side surfaces of the sheet material 200, and the second direction can be a direction perpendicular to another side surface of the sheet material 200. Exemplarily, one of the above side surfaces and the other side surface can be two adjacent side surfaces of the sheet material 200.

[0049] With this structure, the sheet material 200 can be rectified from two adjacent side surfaces of the sheet material 200 simultaneously, improving the rectification effect of the sheet material 200. And compared with the single-liner linear bearing, the double-liner linear bearing has a longer inner liner layer length and better guiding effect on the guide shaft 1092. While the single-liner linear bearing has the advantages of simple structure and low cost. By guiding the longer first rectifying assembly 1061 with the double-liner linear bearing, the shaking degree of the first rectifying assembly 1061 can be reduced, the error can be decreased, and the rectification accuracy can be improved; by guiding the shorter second rectifying assembly 1062 with the single-liner linear bearing, the cost can be saved.

[0050] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the first feed port 1011 further has a third side 10113 adjacent to the first side 10111, and a fourth side 10114 adjacent to the third side 10113 and the second side 10112; wherein, the rectifying device 100 further includes: a first baffle 111, disposed on the support base 101 and located on the fourth side 10114 of the first feed port 1011, and oppositely arranged with the first rectifying assembly 1061; a second baffle 112, disposed on the support base 101 and located on the third side 10113 of the first feed port 1011, and oppositely arranged with the second rectifying assembly 1062. With this structure, when the first rectifying assembly 1061 pushes the sheet material 200, the sheet material 200 can be pushed to contact the first baffle 111, so that the first rectifying assembly 1061 and the first baffle 111 clamp the sheet material 200. When the second rectifying assembly 1062 pushes the sheet material 200, the sheet material 200 can be pushed to contact the second baffle 112, so that the second rectifying assembly 1062 and the second baffle 112 clamp the sheet material 200, thereby improving the rectification effect of the sheet material 200.

[0051] In some embodiments, the number of the first baffles 111 can be multiple, and the number of the second baffles 112 can be multiple. Exemplarily, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the number of the first baffles 111 is two. By providing a plurality of first baffles 111 and / or a plurality of second baffles 112, the rectification effect of the sheet material 200 can be improved.

[0052] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4a shown, the regularization device 100 further includes: at least one light-shielding sheet 113, the first end of the light-shielding sheet 113 is connected to the regularization assembly 106; at least one groove-shaped photoelectric sensor 114, disposed on the support base 101, the groove-shaped photoelectric sensor 114 has a sensing groove; wherein, when the regularization assembly 106 moves to a preset position away from the first feed port 1011, the second end of the light-shielding sheet 113 is located in the sensing groove. Specifically, if an unexpected power failure occurs during the operation of the regularization device 100, at this time the position of the regularization assembly 106 is likely to be very close to the first feed port 1011. In this way, after the power is restored, when the inclined sheet material 200 is fed onto the regularization device 100, it will be blocked by the regularization assembly 106 and cannot be placed above the first feed port 1011. In the embodiments of the present application, by providing the light-shielding sheet 113 and the groove-shaped photoelectric sensor 114, it can be detected whether the regularization assembly 106 is far away from the first feed port 1011 (or whether it is reset to the initial position), so that when it is detected that the second end of the light-shielding sheet 113 is located in the sensing groove, the next sheet of sheet material 200 can be fed onto the regularization device 100, reducing the occurrence of carding situations.

[0053] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4b shown, the eccentric member 105 includes: a wheel body 1051, having a first through hole 10511 extending in the vertical direction and a threaded hole 10512 extending in the horizontal direction, the first through hole 10511 is communicated with the threaded hole 10512, and the core shaft 1034 passes through the first through hole 10511; a setscrew, screwed with the wheel body 1051 through the threaded hole 10512 and abutted against the core shaft 1034. To ensure that at least two groups of regularization assemblies 106 can regularize the sheet material 200 simultaneously, the setscrew can be loosened, and then the wheel body 1051 is rotated so that the distance between the edge of the wheel body 1051 of each eccentric member 105 and the contact portion 1063 of the corresponding regularization assembly is the same, thereby improving the regularization effect of the regularization device 100 on the sheet material 200.

[0054] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4a shown, the contact portion 1063 includes: a main body 10631, connected to the regularization part 1064; a transmission shaft 10632, vertically arranged and connected to the main body 10631; a rotating member 10633, rotatably connected to the transmission shaft 10632, and the rotating member 10633 is in rolling connection with the eccentric member 105 corresponding to each regularization assembly 106. Among them,

[0055] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4a and Figure 4bAs shown, the main body 10631 includes two protruding portions 106311 and a cross plate 106312. The two protruding portions 106311 are arranged vertically opposite to each other and are connected to one side of the cross plate 106312 close to the eccentric member 105. The upper and lower protruding portions 106311 respectively have third mounting holes, and both ends of the transmission shaft 10632 are respectively inserted into the third mounting holes of the upper and lower protruding portions 106311. The rotating member 10633 is sleeved on the transmission shaft 10632. The rotating member 10633 is exemplarily a bearing. With this structure, when the eccentric member 105 rolls, the rotating member 10633 will roll around the transmission shaft 10632, so that the frictional force between the eccentric member 105 and the transmission shaft 10632 is a rolling frictional force. Compared with the sliding frictional force, the rolling frictional force is smaller, thus avoiding excessive frictional force from hindering the rotation of the eccentric member 105.

[0056] In some embodiments, as Figure 3a and 3b shown, the regularization device 100 further includes: a connecting member 115 disposed below the support base 101. The connecting member 115 has a waist-shaped hole 1151, and the extending direction of the waist-shaped hole 1151 is perpendicular to the connection line of the driving wheel 1031 and the driven wheel 1032; a locking member passing through the waist-shaped hole 115 and being screwed to the support base 101; a tensioning shaft 116 connected to the connecting member 115; and a tensioning wheel 117 rotatably connected to the tensioning shaft 116 and configured to tension the timing belt 1033. Exemplarily, the locking member includes a screw and / or a bolt. The connecting member 115 is a plate-like structure, and the connecting member 115 has a fourth mounting hole. One end of the tensioning shaft 116 is inserted into and fixed in the fourth mounting hole. Specifically, by adjusting the position of the connecting member 115, the position change of the locking member passing through the waist-shaped hole 115 can make the tensioning wheel 117 approach or move away from the timing belt 1033, thereby realizing the adjustment of the tension degree of the timing belt 1033.

[0057] Figure 6 The figure shows a schematic structural diagram of a transportation device provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application.

[0058] Based on the same concept, as Figure 6As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present application provides a transportation device 300, which is configured to regularize and transport sheet materials 200. The transportation device 300 includes: a manipulator 340, which is configured to pick up the sheet material 200 and transport the sheet material 200; a lifting device 310, which realizes the feeding of the sheet material 200 through lifting. The lifting device 310 is arranged below the manipulator 340. The lifting device 310 is provided with a placement part, and the placement part is configured to receive the sheet material 200 transported by the manipulator 340 from above the placement part and drive the sheet material 200 to descend; the regularization device 100 in any of the above embodiments is arranged above the lifting device 310 and is configured to regularize the sheet material 200. The regularized sheet material 200 passes through the first feeding port 1011 of the regularization device 100 under the drive of the lifting device 310; a material box 320 is arranged below the regularization device 100. The material box 320 has a loading space, and the loading space is configured to carry the sheet material 200. Wherein, the bottom of the material box 320 has a second through hole, and the lifting device 310 passes through the second through hole. The top of the material box 320 has a second feeding port, and the second feeding port is located below the first feeding port 1011. The sheet material 200 passing through the first feeding port 1011 enters the loading space through the second feeding port under the drive of the lifting device 310. Wherein, when the lifting device 310 descends to the bottom of the material box 320, the sheet material 200 is carried by the lifting device 310 and then becomes carried by the material box 320; a transportation component 330, which is configured to transport the material box 320 carrying the sheet material 200.

[0059] Specifically, the placement part can be in direct contact with the sheet material 200 to lift the sheet material 200, or the transportation device 300 can further include a support plate. The placement part is used to lift the support plate, and the support plate is used to carry the sheet material 200. The material box 320 can be a process material box for cross-section passivation. The side of the material box has a ventilation opening, and the ventilation opening is used to introduce process gas. The transportation component 330 can include a conveyor belt, rollers, a motor, a slider, a slide rail, etc., and is used to transport the material box 320 to subsequent process equipment (such as passivation equipment).

[0060] In practical applications, when the lifting device 310 does not carry any sheet material 200, the lifting device 310 first rises to the highest position, and the manipulator 340 places the sheet material 200 on the pallet on the placing part. Then, the sizing device 100 sizes the sheet material 200. After the sizing is completed, the lifting device 310 descends a certain height, and the manipulator 340 places another sheet material 200 on the sheet material at the top of the pallet. The sizing device 100 then sizes another sheet material 200. After the sizing is completed, the lifting device 310 descends a certain height again, and so on, until the number of sheet materials 200 carried on the pallet reaches the preset number. Then, the placing part descends below the magazine 320, and the multiple sheet materials 200 and the pallet change from being carried by the placing part to being carried by the magazine 320. The transportation component 330 transports the magazine 320 loaded with the preset number of sheet materials 200 and the pallet to the subsequent process equipment.
