In a specific implementation process, the lifting transmission mechanism 600 may adopt a manipulator or the like, but the manipulator may increase the volume of the whole equipment and increase the cost, so in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, another structural form is adopted, the lifting transmission mechanism is disposed below the working platform 500, the lifting transmission mechanism 600 includes a plurality of roller transmission units 610, rollers 611 of the roller transmission units 610 can pass through the working platform 500 through roller via holes 530 formed on the working platform 500, when solar energy needs to be lifted, the rollers 611 pass through the working platform to move upwards so as to support the solar cell to be lifted, and when the solar cell needs to be lowered, the rollers 611 are lowered so as to lower the solar cell; when the solar cell needs to be transported forward, the roller 611 rotates to transport the solar cell forward.

The linear motor can run in a straight line parallel to the worktable plate Z3 by adjusting Y1 and Y2, and the linear motor can run in a same interval with the worktable plate by adjusting X1 and X2.
In the embodiment of the present invention, with reference to fig. 11 and 12, the first laser system 430 includes a first laser 431, a first reflecting mirror 432, and a focusing lens 433, and a laser beam emitted by the first laser 431 is reflected by the first reflecting mirror 432, then enters the focusing lens 433, and is focused by the focusing lens 433, and then exits. When the solar cell is edge-cleared, the thin film on the rear surface of the solar cell is divided into an active area and an inactive area by the first laser system 430. In general, when the solar cell is divided into regions, a laser having a large power is not required, and in order to reduce the influence of heat on the edges of the solar cell, the power of the first laser is as small as possible, but is too small to affect the efficiency, so that the problems of efficiency and heat influence must be balanced. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first laser 431 is a laser with power ranging from 10W to 30W, which can reduce the cost of the device. The first mirror 432 reflects the laser beam emitted from the first laser 431 by 90 ° and then emits the reflected laser beam into the focusing lens 433, and the laser beam is focused by the focusing lens 433 and then emitted onto the surface of the solar cell, and the division of the region is completed by the driving of the linear driving mechanism 300.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the second laser system 440 includes a second laser 441, a second reflecting mirror 442, a vibrating mirror 443, and a field lens 444, and a laser beam emitted by the second laser 441 enters the vibrating mirror 443 and the field lens 444 in sequence after being reflected by the second reflecting mirror 442 and then exits. The second laser system 440 mainly removes the thin film in the inactive area, and the inactive area is separated from the active area, and during the removal process, no large thermal influence is generated on the active area any more, so that a laser with a large power can be used, and therefore, in the implementation of the present invention, a laser with a power range of 100-500W is selected. When the null region elimination is continued, the laser beam emitted from the second laser 441 is reflected by the second mirror 442 by 90 °, and then enters the oscillating mirror 443, and the oscillating mirror 443 focuses the laser beam, and emits the focused laser beam through the field lens 444, and the oscillating mirror 443 oscillates to perform the flight marking, so that the null region elimination is completed by the driving of the linear driving mechanism. The optical path structure formed by the first laser system and the second laser system is shown in fig. 13.
The machine table 100 is provided with a plurality of clamping and positioning components 200, the number of the clamping and positioning components 200 is determined according to the size of the solar cell applied by the laser edge trimming machine, when the laser edge trimming machine is suitable for processing a large-size solar cell, a plurality of clamping and positioning components 200 can be additionally arranged, specifically, the clamping and positioning components 200 are arranged on the outer side of the linear driving mechanism, namely the outer side of the rectangular processing area, and can be oppositely arranged for clamping and positioning the solar cell. In the embodiment of the invention, the clamping and positioning component 200 can adopt an air cylinder or an electric cylinder, so that when the solar cell is clamped and positioned, the solar cell can be positioned to an accurate processing position only by extending out of a cylinder rod of the air cylinder or the electric cylinder, and the clamping and positioning component has a simple structure and is convenient to control.
Further, high-temperature smoke is easily generated during the laser edge cleaning process, and if the smoke falls on the solar cell, the surface of the cell is likely to be damaged, so that the smoke needs to be sucked away in time. In the embodiment of the present invention, a dust hood 450 is disposed on the focusing lens 433, as shown in fig. 14, a laser through hole 451 and a dust suction port 452 are disposed on the dust hood 450, wherein the dust suction port 452 is connectable to a dust suction device, and a laser beam from the focusing lens 433 passes through the laser through hole 451. Thus, the laser beam emitted from the focusing lens 433 can be emitted perpendicularly to the dust hood 450, and the dust hood 450 can completely cover the working area of the laser beam emitted from the focusing lens 433, thereby improving dust collection efficiency. The second laser system 440 is approximately opposite to the first laser system 430, so that when the second laser system 440 works, smoke can be sucked away through the dust hood 450 at any time, and the influence of the smoke on the battery is avoided.
Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, the laser power detection device 700 is disposed on the machine table 100, and specifically, the laser power detection device 700 is disposed at the initial position of the laser cleaning head 400, in the present invention, the initial position of the laser cleaning head 400 is at the intersection of two linear driving mechanisms, that is, the corner position of the rectangular working area, because power detection needs to be performed on four laser cleaning heads 400, at least two laser power detection devices need to be disposed at two corners of the rectangular working area, respectively. In actual engineering, the power of the laser emitted by the second laser system only needs to be detected, so that before the solar cell edge cleaning, the laser emitted by the second laser system is firstly irradiated on the laser power detection device to detect whether the power of the laser meets the process requirement.
With the edge cleaner provided in the embodiment of the present invention, first, the first laser system 430 on the laser cleaning head 400 is used to scribe the thin film layer of the solar cell under the driving of the linear driving mechanism, so as to divide the thin film layer into the inactive area and the active area, and then the second laser system is used to clean the thin film in the inactive area under the driving of the linear driving mechanism, thereby realizing efficient edge cleaning of the solar cell. In addition, when the edge cleaning is carried out through the edge cleaning machine, the edge cleaning is completed through two processes, so that the edge heat influence of the laser on the solar cell can be effectively reduced, and the performance of the solar cell is ensured. In addition, degree of automation is high, can greatly improve production efficiency.
With the edge deletion machine provided in the above embodiment, an embodiment of the present invention provides a laser edge deletion method for a solar cell, as shown in fig. 15, where the edge deletion method includes:
s100: resetting the laser cleaning head 400 and adsorbing the solar cell on the working platform 500;

Further, the power of the first laser is smaller than that of the second laser, because only a small area needs to be ablated when the solar cell is scribed and divided, only a small power of laser is needed to ensure the processing efficiency, the edge heat influence on the solar cell in the edge cleaning process can be effectively reduced by using the small power of laser, and the manufacturing cost of the equipment can be reduced by using the small power of laser. And the second laser with higher power is adopted, so that the edge cleaning efficiency can be effectively improved, and the invalid area is separated from the effective area, so that the effective area is not greatly influenced by heat when the invalid area is cleaned.
In addition, in the embodiment of the present invention, when the solar cell is loaded, the lifting and conveying mechanism 600 is lifted, and the solar cell is placed on the lifting and conveying mechanism 600; the lifting transmission mechanism 600 is lowered, the working platform 500 blows air outwards, and the solar cell is floated above the working platform 500; the clamping and positioning component 200 extends out, and retracts to the clamping and positioning component 200 after pushing the solar cell to an accurate edge clearing position; the air pressure of the air blowing of the working platform 500 is gradually reduced until the solar cell falls back to the working platform 500, and the working platform adsorbs the solar cell. In order to carry out position control to solar cell during the primary action to make the precision of clear limit better, clear limit quality is better.
In addition, in order to reduce the smoke generated in the laser ablation process, in the embodiment of the invention, dust is simultaneously absorbed when the solar cell is subjected to edge cleaning, and the smoke generated by the laser ablation is absorbed in time through the dust absorption cover 450, so that the damage of the smoke to the surface of the solar cell is avoided.
