Welding of solar cells plays a crucial role in solar cell manufacturing. Therefore, developing equipment for welding solar cells has become a research hotspot in automation and energy technology, with achieving high welding quality and low breakage rates becoming the primary goal for quality assurance.
[0003] Existing welding machines typically use metal heating plates to heat the solar cells when welding them, and then use welding lamps for welding. However, the characteristics of metal heating plates are that they heat up and cool down quickly. During the welding process, the solar cells are prone to over-welding or incomplete welding due to the rapid heating and cooling of the metal heating plates. This greatly affects the overall welding quality of the solar cells and the overall yield of the photovoltaic panel, which is very inconvenient. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a solar cell welding mechanism for a solar panel welding machine. The mechanism has an ingenious structure. By setting a high-temperature resistant first flexible heat-conducting plate, the heat of the heating plate layer is slowly absorbed and heated slowly.

The welding lamp drives the lifting bracket through the first lifting cylinder to perform series welding on the battery cells. During the welding process, the first flexible heat-conducting plate is set above the heating plate layer. The first flexible heat-conducting plate is made of a high-temperature resistant material. During the heating process of the heating plate, the first flexible heat-conducting plate slowly absorbs heat and heats up, effectively avoiding the problem of excessive temperature in the prior art. This high-efficiency design prevents over-welding during the stringing process of individual solar cells. After the heating plate stops heating, the first flexible heat-conducting plate slowly dissipates heat.

[0037] Both the first flexible heat-conducting plate 61 and the second flexible heat-conducting plate 391 are high-temperature resistant heat-conducting plates. The materials of the first flexible heat-conducting plate 61 and the second heat-conducting plate can be fluororubber, hydrogenated nitrile rubber, ethylene propylene rubber, or methyl phenyl silicone rubber. The first flexible heat-conducting plate 61 slowly absorbs heat from the heating plate 6 through its high-temperature resistance and slow thermal conductivity. Similarly, through its slow thermal conductivity, it can slowly absorb and dissipate heat, thus avoiding over-welding or cold welding during the welding process. Similarly, the second flexible heat-conducting plate 391, which is set below each welding lamp, also achieves slow heat absorption and slow heat dissipation of heat from the welding lamp through its high-temperature resistance and slow thermal conductivity, thereby avoiding cold welding or over-welding of each battery cell during the welding process.
[0038] The second flexible heat-conducting plate 391 is provided with a plurality of parallel light-transmitting grooves.
[0039] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During use, the previous station transfers the battery cells that need to be serially welded to the preparation station. The battery cells at the preparation station are then transferred to the preheating plate 5 at the preheating station for preheating. Preheating raises the temperature of the battery cells, reducing the risk of incomplete soldering during the subsequent serial welding process. After preheating, each battery cell is transferred to the area below the welding station via the conveyor belt 2. Then, the heating plate layer 62 begins the heating process. During this process, the high-temperature resistant and slow-conducting first flexible heat-conducting plate 61 absorbs the heat released by the heating plate layer 62 and begins to heat the battery cells. Because of the slow thermal conductivity of the first flexible heat-conducting plate 61, the excessively fast heat conduction speed of the metal heat-conducting plate in the prior art is effectively avoided, thus preventing over-welding during the cell welding process. Simultaneously, due to the slow thermal conductivity of the first flexible heat-conducting plate 61, it absorbs and dissipates heat quickly. Therefore, when the cells at the welding station are completed and transferred to the heat dissipation station, and simultaneously when the cells at the next preheating station are transferred to the welding station for welding, the first flexible heat-conducting plate 61 can start heating from its residual temperature, greatly improving the heating speed of the cells. Furthermore, because the metal heating plate 6 dissipates heat quickly, it... The use of a slow-heating first flexible heat-conducting plate 61 can effectively prevent incomplete soldering of individual battery cells during the stringing process. Furthermore, when the welding lamps are stringing the battery cells, the welding bracket 31 slides horizontally on the adjusting base plate 361 through the cooperation of the adjusting slider 363 and the adjusting slide rail 362, and the threaded engagement of the adjusting screw 365 with the screw hole on the connecting block 366. This horizontally adjusts the position of the welding lamps, aligning them with the welding points of each battery cell. The height of the welding lamps is adjusted by driving the lifting bracket 33 through the first lifting cylinder 32, thereby controlling the temperature of the battery cell stringing and greatly improving the efficiency of the stringing process. The second flexible heat-conducting plate 391, driven by the second static cylinder, presses the battery cells together and further precisely aligns the welding positions of the battery cells through the light-transmitting groove, thus improving the accuracy of battery cell string welding. This effectively solves the problem in the prior art where battery cells are easily over-welded or under-welded due to the rapid heating and cooling of the metal heating plate 6, which greatly affects the overall welding quality of the battery cells. Through the high temperature resistance and slow thermal conductivity of the first flexible heat-conducting plate 61 and the second flexible heat-conducting plate 391, the welding efficiency and welding quality of the battery cells are greatly improved. The structure is ingenious, convenient and practical.
