Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of solar cell cooling, and in particular relates to a cooling device for solar cell screen printing. Background Art

[0002] Solar cell screen printing process is an important processing step in the production process of solar cells. After the processes of texturing, diffusion and PECVD, the solar cell has been made into a PN junction, which can generate current under light. In order to conduct the current, electrodes need to be prepared on the surface of the cell. Screen printing technology is a process for processing battery electrodes, that is, printing the paste onto the solar cell substrate through a screen template; in solar cell screen printing, high temperature may cause increased thermal stress on the cell, and high temperature is not conducive to the curing of ink or paste, so it is necessary to cool down the paste (usually metal paste, such as silver paste or aluminum paste) printed on the silicon wafer to quickly cool to room temperature or near room temperature after sintering, so as to ensure the stability and adhesion of the printed pattern and avoid damage to the cell due to high temperature; one of the commonly used cooling methods is forced air cooling, that is, using fans or air conditioners to blow cold air to the cell to accelerate its heat dissipation process;

[0003] The forced air cooling method cools down the screen-printed solar cell. First, after the printing and sintering processes are completed, the cell is immediately removed from the high-temperature area to reduce the continued influence of the heat source. Second, the electrode sheet is moved to the fan cooling area. Then, a fan cooling device is used to generate cold air to force cool the side of the cell facing the cold air. In the above operation, the cold air can only dissipate heat and cool down one side of the cell. During the cooling process, the cell cannot rotate, so that it can dissipate heat and cool down on both sides to achieve a sufficient cooling effect.

[0004] When cooling solar cells using the existing fan-forced air cooling method, there is a problem in that there is no design for heat dissipation and cooling on both sides of the solar cells. Therefore, the present application proposes a cooling device for solar cell screen printing. Utility Model Content
