However, the increase in the size of the wafer transfer mechanism will easily cause interference with other components. To solve the interference problem, the overall specification size of the string welding equipment also needs to be increased, which in turn leads to the string welding equipment occupying a larger space area in the factory environment. Content of the Utility Model

The disclosed back-contact battery string series connection device includes a bearing mechanism 100, a first lifting and sheet-transferring table, and a second lifting and sheet-transferring table. Among them, the bearing mechanism 100 is used to bear a plurality of battery cells arranged at a preset interval, and both the first lifting and sheet-transferring table and the second lifting and sheet-transferring table are used to receive a plurality of battery cells and transfer them onto the bearing mechanism 100.

[0023] Specifically, the sheet-transferring surfaces of the first lifting and sheet-transferring table and the second lifting and sheet-transferring table are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction. In the series connection direction, the first lifting and sheet-transferring table and the second lifting and sheet-transferring table are movably arranged on the bearing mechanism 100 independently. The sheet-transferring surfaces of the first lifting and sheet-transferring table and the second lifting and sheet-transferring table can move up and down relative to the bearing surface of the bearing mechanism 100 independently. Among them, the vertical direction is perpendicular to the series connection direction.

[0024] During the use of the back-contact battery string series connection device, since the sheet-transferring surfaces of the first lifting and sheet-transferring table and the second lifting and sheet-transferring table are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction, when the first lifting and sheet-transferring table bears a plurality of battery cells and moves to the bearing mechanism 100, the second lifting and sheet-transferring table is lifted to make its sheet-transferring surface flush with the sheet-transferring surface of the first lifting and sheet-transferring table, and the second lifting and sheet-transferring table starts to bear a plurality of battery cells. This process alternates and repeats in sequence, so that the sheet-transferring time of the first lifting and sheet-transferring table overlaps with the cell-carrying time of the second lifting and sheet-transferring table, thereby achieving the arrangement of more battery cells on the bearing mechanism 100 in a shorter time.

[0025] In the above structure, the first lifting and sheet-transferring table and the second lifting and sheet-transferring table alternately transfer battery cells, which also improves the arrangement efficiency of the battery cells on the bearing mechanism 100. At the same time, by arranging the sheet-transferring surfaces of the first lifting and sheet-transferring table and the second lifting and sheet-transferring table at intervals in the vertical direction, the space occupied in the series connection direction is reduced, and the space is reasonably and effectively utilized, thereby avoiding interference with other components of the string welding machine due to increasing the size of only one first lifting and sheet-transferring table to transfer more battery cells.

[0029] In another alternative solution, the carrier stage 120 may include a support frame 121 and a carrier 122. Specifically, there are two carriers 122 which are spaced apart on the support frame 121, and a transport channel is formed between the two carriers 122. Both the first lifting and transporting stage and the second lifting and transporting stage can move in the transport channel. By supporting the carrier 122 through the support frame 121, a transport channel is formed between the two carriers 122, which is convenient for the first lifting and transporting stage and the second lifting and transporting stage to return to the initial position of carrying the battery wafers through the transport channel when alternately transporting wafers, so as to realize the rational use of space.

[0030] In a further technical solution, a plurality of adsorption holes may be provided on the carrier 122 at intervals, and the plurality of adsorption holes can correspondingly adsorb a plurality of arranged battery wafers to prevent the plurality of battery wafers from shifting.

Of course, both the second driving component 220 and the second driving component 220 can be servo motors 222, telescopic cylinders, electric cylinders, etc., and the present application does not make any restrictions on this.
