Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of string welding machines, in particular to a photovoltaic component welding light source adjustment device. Background Art
[0002] The welding light source plays a key role in the stringer welding process. In photovoltaic module welding, a welding light source typically refers to a beam of light capable of generating sufficient energy, such as a laser light source or a strong light source (e.g., high-energy-density infrared light). Its primary function is to melt the solder by providing energy, thereby joining components such as the electrodes of the photovoltaic cell. For example, a laser welding light source can generate a high-energy-density laser beam. This laser beam is focused on the welding area, instantly melting the solder and achieving high-precision welding.
[0003] The difference in light source parameters and light source position directly affects the welding quality, and will affect the overall power and weather resistance of the module. Therefore, the adjustment of the welding light source is particularly important in the production of photovoltaic modules.
[0004] However, in the process of using the current welding light source, it was found that there are at least the following technical problems: in the existing string welding machines, the welding light source is mostly fixed, and in most cases the position and power of the welding light source cannot be adjusted at will. Therefore, preheating before welding will occur, resulting in a low preheating temperature of the battery cell before the formal welding, and rapid heating during welding will cause damage to the battery cell.

The overall idea is as follows:
[0030] In response to the problems existing in the prior art, the utility model provides a photovoltaic module welding light source adjustment device, including a stringer body and a welding light source body 309, including a substrate 1, the substrate 1 is installed inside the stringer body, the top surface of the substrate 1 is provided with two T-shaped slide grooves 101, the top surface of the substrate 1 is provided with a limiting groove 102, the top surface of the substrate 1 is slidably connected to a welding mechanism 3, one end of the substrate 1 is provided with a driving mechanism, the welding mechanism 3 includes a fixing plate 301, the driving mechanism includes a motor 2, and the motor 2 is electrically connected to the control device of the stringer body.
[0031] The base plate 1 is fixedly connected to fixing blocks 103 at both ends of the limiting groove 102 , and one end of the base plate 1 is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 104 .
[0032] The motor 2 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the connecting plate 104 . The output shaft of the motor 2 is fixedly connected to a coupling 201 . The motor 2 is fixedly connected to a screw rod 202 via the coupling 201 . The screw rod 202 is rotatably connected to the two fixed blocks 103 .
[0033] Two T-shaped sliders 304 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the fixed plate 301 , and the two T-shaped sliders 304 are slidably connected to the two T-shaped sliding grooves 101 respectively.
[0034] The bottom surface of the fixing plate 301 is highly connected to a limiting block 302 . A thread groove 303 is formed on the surface of the limiting block 302 . The limiting block 302 is threadedly connected to the screw rod 202 via the thread groove 303 .
[0035] A mounting groove 310 is provided on the top surface of the fixing plate 301. An electric telescopic rod 306 and a power controller 305 are fixedly installed on the inner side of the mounting groove 310. The power controller 305 is fixedly connected to a cable 4. The cable 4 passes through the fixing plate 301. The end of the cable 4 away from the power controller 305 is connected to the stringer body. The power controller 305 is electrically connected to the electric telescopic rod 306. The power controller 305 includes a microprocessor (CPU), an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and power semiconductor devices.
[0036] The telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 306 is fixedly connected to a mounting plate 307 , and a plurality of temperature sensors 308 are fixedly mounted on the top surface of the mounting plate 307 .
[0037] The welding light source body 309 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the mounting plate 307 .
[0038] By providing a welding mechanism 3, the welding mechanism 3 includes a power controller 305, which can control the output power of the welding light source body 309. The welding light source body 309 preheats the photovoltaic cell. After a period of time, the power controller 305 controls the electric telescopic rod 306 to start. The electric telescopic rod 306 lifts the mounting plate 307 and the welding light source body 309 together, so that the welding light source body 309 contacts the photovoltaic cell. At this time, the heat generated by the welding light source body 309 is directly transferred to the photovoltaic cell. At this time, the photovoltaic cell and the electrodes to be welded are heated and welded, avoiding the problem of high production costs caused by the rapid heating of the existing string welding machine during welding, so that the present application has the problem of reducing the production cost of photovoltaic cells.
[0039] Working principle:
[0040] In the first step, the entire application needs to be set up inside the stringer for use. When the photovoltaic cell needs to be welded, the photovoltaic cell and the welding mechanism are placed and fixed on the top of the welding light source body 309 by the robot arm or other loading device of the stringer body. Then the welding light source body 309 is started to preheat the photovoltaic cell. After a period of time, the power controller 305 controls the electric telescopic rod 306 to start. The electric telescopic rod 306 lifts the mounting plate 307 and the welding light source body 309 together, so that the welding light source body 309 is in contact with the photovoltaic cell. At this time, the heat generated by the welding light source body 309 is directly transferred to the welding light source body 309. To the photovoltaic cell, at this time the photovoltaic cell and the electrodes that need to be welded are heated and welded. When a part of the photovoltaic cell is welded, the string welding machine body controls the motor 2 to drive the coupling 201 to rotate, and the coupling 201 drives the screw 202 to rotate. When the screw 202 rotates, the threaded groove 303 opened by the limit block 302 cooperates with the screw 202, so that the limit block 302 can drive the fixed plate 301 to slide on the T-shaped slide groove 101 and the limit groove 102, thereby moving the welding light source body 309 above the substrate 1. After the welding light source body 309 changes its position, welding is performed on other positions of the photovoltaic cell that need to be welded.
[0041] In the second step, the temperature sensor 308 constantly detects the temperature of the welding area between the photovoltaic cell and the welding light source body 309. When the temperature sensor 308 detects that the temperature of the welding area reaches a preset value, the temperature sensor 308 transmits an electrical signal to the power controller 305, and the power controller 305 automatically controls the welding light source body 309 to turn off.
