Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0046] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., used in this utility model are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the utility model described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0047] Currently, the resistance testing method for solar cells uses a single-pattern motion grating. This grating is used to repeatedly move and obscure areas to obtain a complete composite image of the solar cell. However, using a single-pattern motion grating presents several problems. First, because the servo motor's movement direction is unidirectional, only a simple, repetitive motion grating structure can be used to obtain a complete composite image. This limits the design space for the grating's cutout and obscuring areas, making it impossible to design a reasonable grating based on the main grid or fine grid line pattern of the solar cell, thus affecting the accuracy of the test results. Second, the motion grating is usually driven by a servo motor, and the servo motor's movement precision limits the completeness of the composite image, leading to significant data errors and affecting the stability of the test results.

[0048] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a resistance testing system. Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a resistance testing system provided in an embodiment of this utility model, for reference. Figure 1 The resistance testing system includes:

[0049] Light source 20, used to emit light to the battery cell 10 under test;

[0050] An imaging device 30 and a grating 40 are provided, with the grating 40 located between the imaging device 30 and the battery cell 10 under test. The grating 40 is used to block part of the light emitted by the light source 20. The grating 40 includes at least two gratings 40, and the patterns of the at least two gratings 40 are complementary. When at least two gratings 40 block part of the light emitted by the light source 20, the imaging device 30 is used to acquire at least two first grayscale images of the battery cell 10 under test. When the light emitted by the light source 20 is not blocked, the imaging device 30 is also used to acquire a second grayscale image of the battery cell 10 under test.

[0051] The control module 50 is electrically connected to the imaging device 30 and the light source 20, with the light source 20 located on one side of the imaging device 30.

[0052] The tested solar cell 10 may include a solar cell. The light source 20 may be a laser light source or an LED light source, and can be any one of a point light source, line light source, or area light source. The light source 20 is located to one side of the imaging device 30, and not between the imaging device 30 and the tested solar cell 10, to avoid the light source 20 obstructing the imaging device 30. The imaging device 30 may be a grayscale camera, for example, a charge-coupled device (CCD) camera. The grating 40 includes at least two gratings 40, which may be moving gratings or fixed gratings. The materials of the gratings 40 include, but are not limited to, high-transparency glass, plastic, metal, alloy, wood, etc.

[0053] The grating 40 includes at least two gratings 40, the patterns of the at least two gratings 40 are complementary, and the combined patterns of the at least two gratings 40 can completely cover the entire solar cell 10 under test. For example, Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a complementary grating provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of another complementary grating provided in an embodiment of the present invention, with reference to... Figure 2 and Figure 3 The patterns of the first grating 41 and the second grating 42 are complementary patterns. The first grating 41 and the second grating 42 are complementary gratings, that is, the cutout area of ​​the first grating 41 is complementary to the cutout area of ​​the second grating 42, and the occlusion area of ​​the first grating 41 is complementary to the occlusion area of ​​the second grating 42. Figure 2 The center is a striped grating. Figure 2 The black baffle 03 in the image can be made of metal. Figure 3 The center is a square-shaped grating. Figure 3 The transparent area 01 is made of high-transparency acrylic sheet, and the black shielding area 02 is made of black tape. The number of gratings 40 can be set according to the test requirements, but at least two gratings 40 must have complementary patterns. That is, if the grating 40 includes a first grating 41 and a second grating 42, then the patterns of the first grating 41 and the second grating 42 are complementary patterns; if the grating 40 includes a first grating 41, a second grating 42, and a third grating, then the patterns of the first grating 41, the second grating 42, and the third grating are complementary patterns. This utility model does not impose a specific limit on the number of gratings.

[0054] The first grayscale image is the grayscale image of the battery cell 10 under test acquired by the imaging device 30 when the grating 40 blocks part of the light emitted by the light source 20. The second grayscale image is the grayscale image of the battery cell 10 under test acquired by the imaging device 30 when the light emitted by the light source 20 is not blocked.

[0055] Specifically, the control module 50 is used to determine the resistance of the battery cell 10 under test based on the second grayscale image and at least two first grayscale images. For example, by controlling the movement of at least two gratings 40, the control module 50 can acquire first grayscale images under different occlusion conditions and a second grayscale image without occlusion. The control module 50 can superimpose the grayscale values ​​of the at least two first grayscale images under different occlusion conditions according to their corresponding pixels to form a composite image; then, the control module 50 calculates the grayscale values ​​of the composite image and the second grayscale image without occlusion to obtain grayscale data. A known stable current is applied to the battery cell under test. The current magnitude should be selected according to the specifications of the battery cell and the measurement requirements, generally within the operating current range of the battery cell. The grayscale data can be converted into actual temperature values ​​based on the calibration data of the thermal imager. Different thermal imagers have different conversion formulas or calibration curves, which can usually be obtained through the instrument's instruction manual or related software. Observe the thermal image to find areas with higher temperatures on the battery cell under test; these areas usually correspond to parts with higher resistance. Since heat is generated when current flows through a resistor, according to Joule's law Q = I... 2Rt (where Q is heat, I is current, R is resistance, and t is time) represents the resistance. The higher the resistance, the more heat is generated, and the higher the temperature. Analyzing the temperature distribution of hotspot areas allows us to calculate the average or highest temperature of the area to represent the degree of heat generation. Simultaneously, the area of ​​the hotspot area is measured to facilitate subsequent resistance estimation. A heat conduction model is established based on the material properties, geometry, and heat dissipation conditions of the solar cell. This model describes the relationship between the heat generated when current passes through the solar cell under test, its resistance, and temperature. For example, the finite element method can be used to build the model, dividing the solar cell under test into multiple small units and calculating the heat generation and transfer in each unit. Based on the established thermal model and the measured temperature data, the resistance of the solar cell is estimated through inversion calculation. Specifically, the known current, temperature, and other relevant parameters are substituted into the thermal model equations, and the resistance value is solved until a resistance value meeting the accuracy requirements is obtained. This allows for non-contact resistance testing of the solar cell under test, eliminating the need for probes that could cause breakage, eliminating probe shadow interference, avoiding probe consumption, and eliminating the need for corresponding solder pads for the probes, thus reducing costs. Light emitted from the light source 20 illuminates the battery cell 10 under test, causing it to absorb the light and emit light. The imaging device 30 can acquire a grayscale image of the battery cell 10. At least two gratings 40 block the light source 20, and the imaging device 30 obtains at least two first grayscale images. By blocking the light source 20 with at least two complementary gratings 40, multiple complementary gratings 40 can be arbitrarily designed according to the main grating pattern and / or fine grating line pattern of the battery cell 10 under test. This solves the problem that the motion precision of a single grating cannot accurately match the battery cell under test, avoids large errors in image data caused by a single grating pattern, and enables non-contact measurement of the resistance of battery cells with arbitrary metallized patterns. It has good versatility and compatibility, thereby improving the accuracy of the test results.

[0056] The resistance testing system provided by this embodiment of the present invention includes: a light source 20, which emits light to a battery cell 10 under test; an imaging device 30 and a grating 40, the grating 40 being located between the imaging device 30 and the battery cell 10 under test; the grating 40 being used to block part of the light emitted by the light source 20; the grating 40 includes at least two gratings 40, the patterns of the at least two gratings 40 being complementary patterns; when at least two gratings 40 block part of the light emitted by the light source 20, the imaging device 30 is used to acquire at least two first grayscale value images of the battery cell 10 under test respectively; when the light emitted by the light source 20 is not blocked, the imaging device 30 is also used to acquire a second grayscale value image of the battery cell 10 under test; and a control module 50, which is electrically connected to the imaging device 30 and the light source 20, the light source 20 being located on one side of the imaging device 30; the control module 50 is used to determine the resistance of the battery cell 10 under test based on the second grayscale value image and the at least two first grayscale value images. This utility model embodiment uses complementary gratings 40 to block the light source 20 respectively. Multiple complementary gratings 40 can be arbitrarily designed according to the main grating pattern and / or fine grating line pattern of the battery cell 10 under test. This can solve the problem that the motion accuracy of a single grating cannot accurately match the battery cell under test, and avoid large errors in image data caused by a single pattern of grating 40. It realizes non-contact measurement of the resistance of battery cells with arbitrary metallized patterns, and has good versatility and compatibility, thereby improving the accuracy of test results.

[0057] Based on the above embodiments, optionally, at least two first grayscale images are complementary.

[0058] Among them, the patterns of at least two gratings 40 are complementary patterns. By blocking part of the light emitted by the light source 20 through at least two gratings, the imaging device 30 acquires at least two first grayscale value images that are complementary images.

The grating can be electrically connected to the motor, and the battery cell under test can be fixedly connected to the transmission mechanism. The motor drives the grating to move, and the transmission mechanism drives the battery cell under test to move. The driving device drives the grating or the battery cell under test.

[0061] Based on the above embodiments, optionally, the driving device includes a grating driving device and a battery cell driving device; the grating driving device includes a servo motor or a stepper motor; the battery cell driving device includes a conveyor belt.

[0062] The grating drive unit is used to move the grating. The cell drive unit is used to move the cell. Servo motors or stepper motors offer high stability and efficiency; the conveyor belt also includes a motor, which drives the conveyor belt's movement. The conveyor belt has a lower cost and can be configured according to requirements.

[0063] Optional, Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of another resistance testing system provided in this embodiment of the present invention, for reference. Figure 4 The imaging device includes a first imaging device 31, a second imaging device 32 and a third imaging device 33; the light source includes a first light source 21, a second light source 22 and a third light source 23; the grating includes a first grating 41 and a second grating 42, the patterns of the first grating 41 and the second grating 42 are complementary patterns.

[0064] The control module 50 is electrically connected to the first imaging device 31, the second imaging device 32, the third imaging device 33, the first light source 21, the second light source 22, and the third light source 23. The first light source 21 is located on one side of the first imaging device 31, and the first imaging device 31 is directly opposite the first grating 41. The second light source 22 is located on one side of the second imaging device 32, and the second imaging device 32 is directly opposite the second grating 42. The third light source 23 is located on one side of the third imaging device 33, and the position directly opposite the third imaging device 33 is not obstructed by the first grating 41 or the second grating 42.

[0065] The driving device 60 is used to drive the battery cell 10 under test to move to the side of the first grating 41 away from the first imaging device 31. When the first grating 41 blocks part of the light emitted by the first light source 21, the first imaging device 31 is used to acquire the first gray value first image of the battery cell 10 under test.

[0066] The driving device 60 is used to drive the battery cell 10 under test to move to the side of the second grating 42 away from the second imaging device 32. When the second grating 42 blocks part of the light emitted by the second light source 22, the second imaging device 32 is used to acquire the first gray value second image of the battery cell 10 under test.

[0067] The driving device 60 is used to drive the battery cell 10 under test to move to the side directly opposite the third imaging device 33. When the light emitted by the third light source 23 is not blocked, the third imaging device 33 is used to acquire the second grayscale image of the battery cell 10 under test.

[0068] The drive unit 60 can be a conveyor belt, which moves the battery cell 10 under test. Figure 4 In this system, there is one control module 50, three light sources, three imaging devices, and two gratings. The first light source 21, the second light source 22, and the third light source 23 are the same. The first imaging device 31, the second imaging device 32, and the third imaging device 33 are the same. The relative positions of the first light source 21 and the first imaging device 31, the second light source 22 and the second imaging device 32, and the third light source 23 and the third imaging device 33 are all the same. The positions of the light sources, imaging devices, and gratings are fixed. The light source is located on one side of the imaging device and is tilted to emit light towards the battery cell 10 under test, which avoids the light source blocking the imaging device. The battery cell 10 emits light under illumination, and the emitted light is captured by the imaging device to form a grayscale image.

[0069] The first imaging device 31 is positioned opposite the first grating 41, meaning the first imaging device 31 is located in the normal direction of the first grating 41. The driving device 60 transports the battery cell 10 to be tested to the side of the first grating 41 away from the first imaging device 31, so that both the first grating 41 and the first imaging device 31 are located in the normal direction of the battery cell 10. When the first grating 41 blocks part of the light emitted by the first light source 21, the first imaging device 31 acquires a first image of the first grayscale value of the battery cell 10. The second imaging device 32 is positioned opposite the second grating 42, meaning the second imaging device 32 is located in the normal direction of the second grating 42. The driving device 60 transports the battery cell 10 to the side of the second grating 42 away from the second imaging device 32, so that both the second grating 42 and the second imaging device 32 are located in the normal direction of the battery cell 10. When the second grating 42 blocks part of the light emitted by the second light source 22, the second imaging device 32 acquires a second image of the first grayscale value of the battery cell 10. The driving device 60 transports the battery cell 10 under test to the side directly opposite the second imaging device 32, so that the third imaging device 33 is located in the normal direction of the battery cell 10 under test. When the light emitted by the third light source 23 is unobstructed, the third imaging device 33 acquires a second grayscale image of the battery cell 10 under test. The control module 50 can superimpose the first grayscale image and the second grayscale image according to their corresponding pixels to form a composite image; then, the control module 50 calculates the resistance of the battery cell under test by combining the composite image and the grayscale values ​​of the unobstructed second grayscale image.

[0070] This embodiment of the invention uses a conveyor belt to move the battery cell under test. Compared to the movement time of a grating, this method is shorter, reducing the time required for grating movement and increasing production capacity per unit time. It also reduces positional errors caused by the servo motor driving the grating, thus minimizing the impact on the accuracy of the composite image. While meeting the grating pattern design requirements, it eliminates the need for a servo motor to drive the grating, avoiding the composite image error caused by the servo motor's positioning accuracy. Specifically, it prevents the illumination areas of the first image and the second image with the first grayscale value from being incompletely complementary, thus failing to cover the entire battery cell under test. This embodiment only requires the battery cell under test to move along the conveyor belt to the designated position, improving the accuracy of the composite image, significantly increasing the testing speed, and saving on servo motor costs.

[0071] Based on the above embodiments, optionally, refer to Figure 1 The grating 40 includes a first grating 41 and a second grating 42, the patterns of the first grating 41 and the second grating 42 being complementary patterns. The driving device is used to drive the first grating 41 to move between the imaging device 30 and the battery cell 10 under test. When the first grating 41 blocks part of the light emitted by the light source 20, the imaging device 30 is used to acquire a first image of the first grayscale value of the battery cell 10 under test.

[0072] The driving device is used to drive the second grating 42 to move between the imaging device 30 and the battery cell 10 under test. When the second grating 42 blocks part of the light emitted by the light source 20, the imaging device 30 is used to acquire the first gray value of the second image of the battery cell 10 under test.

[0073] The driving device drives the first grating 41 and the second grating 42 to move between the imaging device 30 and the battery cell 10 under test, so that the first grating 41 and the second grating 42 are not obstructed. When the light emitted by the light source 20 is not obstructed, the imaging device 30 is used to acquire the second grayscale image of the battery cell 10 under test.

[0074] Among them, the drive unit is Figure 1 Not shown, the driving device can be a servo motor or a stepper motor, and the driving device drives the first grating 41 and the second grating 42 to move along a first direction. Figure 1 In this configuration, there is one control module 50, one light source, one imaging device, and two gratings. The positions of the light source 20, the imaging device 30, and the battery cell 10 under test are fixed. The grating 40 is a moving grating. The light source 20 is located on one side of the imaging device 30. The light source 20 is tilted to emit light towards the battery cell 10 under test, which can prevent the light source 20 from blocking the imaging device 30. The battery cell 10 under test emits light under the illumination of the light, and the emitted light is captured by the imaging device 30 to form a grayscale image.

[0075] refer to Figure 1In the left-hand diagram, the driving device controls the first grating 41 to move between the imaging device 30 and the battery cell 10 under test, so that both the imaging device 30 and the first grating 41 are located in the normal direction of the battery cell 10 under test. The first grating 41 can block part of the light emitted by the light source 20, and the imaging device 30 can acquire the first grayscale value of the battery cell 10 under the light source partially blocked by the first grating 41, forming a first image. (Reference) Figure 1 In the intermediate image, the driving device controls the second grating 42 to move between the imaging device and the battery cell 10 under test, so that both the imaging device 30 and the second grating 42 are located in the normal direction of the battery cell 10 under test. The second grating 42 can block part of the light emitted by the light source 20, and the imaging device 30 can acquire a second image of the first grayscale value of the battery cell 10 under the light source blocked by the second grating 42. (Reference) Figure 1 In the right-hand diagram, the driving device controls the first grating 41 and the second grating 42 to move between the imaging device 30 and the battery cell 10 under test, ensuring that the first grating 41 and the second grating 42 are not obstructed. With the light emitted from the light source 20 unobstructed, the imaging device 30 acquires a second grayscale image of the battery cell 10 under test. The control module 50 can superimpose the first grayscale image and the second grayscale image according to their corresponding pixels to form a composite image; then, the control module 50 calculates the resistance of the battery cell under test by combining the composite image and the grayscale values ​​of the unobstructed second grayscale image.

[0076] This invention utilizes a first and second grating with complementary patterns for testing, applicable to contactless testing of solar cells. The system employs the first and second gratings as moving gratings, which can be arbitrarily designed according to the grating pattern requirements of the cell under test (10). This solves the problem of inaccurate matching of movement precision to the cell under test when using a single grating. It is suitable for resistance testing of cells with complex metallized patterns, such as those without a main grid (OBB) or those with a main grid around the outer ring. Using a first and second grating with complementary patterns avoids the accuracy error problem caused by a single grating moving with a servo motor; it also improves the accuracy of test results. Furthermore, due to the complementary grating design, the movement direction and mode of the grating 40 can be switched according to test requirements, improving compatibility with the entire test line.

Figure 5 The driving device is used to drive the first grating 41 and the second grating 42 to move along a second direction. For example, the first direction can be perpendicular to the second direction. The first direction can be the width direction of the battery cell 10 under test, and the second direction can be the length direction of the battery cell 10 under test. This minimizes the moving distance of the grating 40, reduces the time required for the grating 40 to move, and increases the production capacity per unit time. Alternatively, the first direction can intersect with the second direction.
