Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to photovoltaic cell technical field, concretely relates to a kind of electroplating device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The electroplating device is used for electroplating photovoltaic cell, and generally uses step-by-step multi-layer electroplating to improve the electroplating efficiency. The step-by-step multi-layer electroplating is illustrated as follows: the electroplating area on the photovoltaic cell is divided into area A, area B and area C, and the area A, area B and area C are sequentially electroplated to form a first layer of plating layer on the entire electroplating area, and then the area A, area B and area C are sequentially electroplated to form a second layer of plating layer on the entire electroplating area, until the electroplating on the photovoltaic cell is completed. In this case, the prior electroplating area will carry the electroplating solution into the downstream electroplating tank after being electroplated in the upstream electroplating tank, and the prior electroplating area will contact the cathode connecting piece in the downstream electroplating tank, which will cause the prior electroplating area to be electroplated again, affecting the uniformity of the electroplating of the photovoltaic cell, and the cathode connecting piece in the downstream electroplating tank will also be electroplated. For example, the area A will carry the electroplating solution into the downstream electroplating tank after being electroplated in the upstream electroplating tank, and the area A will contact the cathode connecting piece in the downstream electroplating tank, which will cause the area A to be electroplated again, and the cathode connecting piece in the downstream electroplating tank will also be electroplated.

[0003] Specifically, in some horizontal electroplating devices that use conveying rollers to convey photovoltaic cells, the photovoltaic cells are driven and conveyed by the conductive rollers, which also serve as cathode connecting pieces to conduct electricity. After the prior electroplating area is electroplated in the upstream electroplating tank, it will carry the electroplating solution into the downstream electroplating tank, and the prior electroplating area will contact the conductive roller in the downstream electroplating tank, which will cause the prior electroplating area to be electroplated again, affecting the uniformity of the electroplating of the photovoltaic cell, and the conductive roller in the downstream electroplating tank will also be electroplated, causing the resistance of the conductive roller in the downstream electroplating tank to change, further affecting the uniformity of the electroplating of the photovoltaic cell, and the electroplated conductive roller will also affect the transmission of the photovoltaic cell.
