Description

太阳能硅晶片检测机台和检测方法
【技术领域】
本发明是关于一种检测机台, 尤其是一种太阳能硅晶片检测机台。 【背景技术】
矿产资源如原油等日渐枯竭, 且炼制过程污染不绝; 而天然资源如太阳 能,具有取之不尽、用之不竭且无环保困扰的优势,成为下一代能源的主角。 太阳能板可进行光电转换, 将所接收光能转换为电能以供利用, 为替代能源 较优的解决方案之一。
组成太阳能板主要的部件为太阳能硅晶片, 如图 1所示, 图中左侧呈现 为太阳能硅晶片 1的受光面, 以下称为第一面 12、右侧呈现为太阳能硅晶片 1翻转 180度的非受光面, 以下称为第二面 14。 为将光电流导出, 太阳能硅 晶片 1的第一面 12与第二面 14分别布设有电极 122、 142。 因此, 太阳能硅 晶片 1的两面均需检验。
检验主要区分为: 外观 (printing)检测、 分色检测、 及发光效率检测。 外 观部分主要利用自动化机台的光学判读, 捡视太阳能硅晶片是否有刮痕、 水 痕、 白点、 断线、 脏污及对位偏移等状况。 另由于太阳能硅晶片的工艺及原 料等因素, 每片硅晶片呈现的颜色均有些许差异, 并可依照反射光的主要频 率, 分为由浅蓝、 深蓝、 蓝紫、 紫、 棕等诸多颜色, 色彩虽不影响其光电转 换效能, 却影响日后组装的美观性, 故采购太阳能硅晶片厂商对此分色检测 多有要求。 光电转换效能与电气性能为相当重要的影响因素, 但因检验流程 较特殊, 亦可另设于他处。
目前的太阳能硅晶片检测机台大部分偏重进行外观检测, 且较常见的操 作模式是在检测某一面后,将太阳能硅晶片利用机械直接或放入容器 16以水 车式的承载结构翻转 180度, 即如图 2所示检测另一面, 而后再翻回。 连续 的翻转过程中, 沿重力方向的下端存在应力集中效应, 且速度稍快即可能造 成边缘破损或结构微裂 (micro-crake),前者犹可目测,后者更是增加检测的困 扰。
加以, 两次翻转的水车设计, 半径过小, 在重力相关方向的角加速度高 而易受损; 半径过大则占据庞大空间。 即使努力缩小半径, 在流程的方向至 少需占用三倍于太阳能硅晶片的置放空间、及水车翻转直径两倍的运转空间, 使得机台的整体尺寸无法减小。
再者, 虽然太阳能硅晶片长宽尺寸达 5吋至 6吋, 但厚度仅十分之几毫 米 (mm), 相当畏惧碰撞, 因此目前技术是以例如保丽龙盒作为分装容器, 每 盒叠置装载数十至数百片硅晶片, 藉由保丽龙盒的缓冲, 确保整叠硅晶片在 搬移过程的安全。
尤其当太阳能硅晶片的使用普及后, 除光电转换效率等实质性能外, 消 费者更因美观因素而要求整批货品的配色要一致, 故实际产出的太阳能硅晶 片将于分类机台中, 经历相关电气性能与色泽的检测与分类, 藉由分类机台 依照外观色泽、 与良品或不良品等电气性能的因素分类, 由分类机台的机械 臂吸取经检测与分类的硅晶片, 多个保丽龙盒则分别置放于分类机台上, 以 承接并装载由机械臂所释放、 检测与分类完成的硅晶片。
当其中一个保丽龙盒装满时, 分类机台将暂时停止运作, 由操作人员取 下满载的保丽龙盒, 并递补一个空保丽龙盒至该位置; 分类机台的检测效率 UPH(Unit per Hour)从而受到牵制。因此, 部分厂商改以可承载例如六百片太 阳能硅晶片的高容量卡匣作为容器, 以降低停机的频率。
然而, 一方面太阳能硅晶片极易受损, 且轻微撞击所造成的微裂 (micro-crack)不易以肉眼察觉,却大幅影响产品的电气性能;为避免数百片硅 晶片叠置, 受自身重力挤压所造成的大规模微裂, 导致硅晶片大量损坏, 必 须在六百片硅晶片的堆叠中, 以每隔例如五十片插入一片薄保丽龙片作为缓 冲, 此种插入流程将增加实际操作的复杂度。 另方面, 要将硅晶片由承载数 百片硅晶片的卡匣中整批取出, 也极易因操作人员的轻微疏忽碰撞卡匣而破 片。 且考量太阳能硅晶片的材质与极薄的厚度, 对操作人员安全也构成相当 的风险; 因此, 市场上又兴起低容量卡匣的做法。 但无论采用高容量卡匣或 低容量卡匣, 仍然有相同的 「卡匣满载、 就需停机」 问题存在。
有研究人员提出将分类卡匣倍增, 每一分类分别对应两个卡匣, 其一为 现使用卡匣, 另一为备份卡匣, 当现使用卡匣满载, 则改以备份卡匣为现使 用卡匣, 并趁此时间命操作人员更新已满载的卡厘, 重设为备份卡匣; 如此 反复轮替, 使机台的运转不需暂停。 但是, 由于机械臂、 吸嘴、 输送轨道、 卡匣等装置的价格不低, 如此大规模的结构倍增, 将使自动化机台完全不具 竞争力。
且深入检视可发现,实际分类时,最常被检选的类别竟然大致符合 80/20 法则, 亦即, 依照电气性能与色泽等因素, 最常被检选归类的头几类占据极 大的百分比例, 较冷门的多数类别则仅涉及极少量的硅晶片, 最频繁出现的 两、 三种分类, 通常占所有硅晶片的六、 七成以上。
因此, 若能提供一种将检测机构与流程安排最佳化, 可使太阳能硅晶片 高速循序接受双面的检测, 无须使用容器, 更可配合嵌入不同的检测模组, 或依委托受测者要求, 进行更精细分类, 将可大幅提升此类检测的弹性、 效 率与产出良率。
此外, 若能一并提供一种自动化提供与置换硅晶片装载容器, 并具中途 补充装载容器功能、 可模组化衔接于现有检测机台的分类模式, 使最常见的 分类被全面自动化管制, 相对冷门的分类则可依照成本考量而以高容量卡匣 容置因应。 如此, 机台管理将于成本与效率双重考量因素间游刃有余, 让硅 晶片的自动化检测更有效率, 且不再耗用宝贵工时的分类系统, 应为最佳解 决方案。

有关本发明的前述及其它技术内容、 特点与功效, 在以下配合说明书附 图的较佳实施例的详细说明中, 将可清楚地呈现。
3为本发明的外观立体示意图,太阳能硅晶片检测机台 2包含基座 3、 汲取入料装置 4、 承载检测装置 5、 汲取分类装置 6、 第二面检测装置 7、 及 处理装置, 各装置的机能与装置间关联性容后叙述。
图 4及图 5为本发明的第一实施例, 第二面检测装置 7是被对应于汲取 入料装置 4设置;且处理装置 8配置于太阳能硅晶片检测机台 2的基座 3内, 气压变换装置 则供应全机至少一部份的正负压力调节,为避免相关管线造 成图面紊乱, 连结管线并未绘出。
图 6为汲取入料装置 4的立体示意图, 汲取入料装置 4包括供沿重力方 向枢转的枢轴 42、及设置于枢轴 42的数组吸嘴 46, 在本例中, 四组吸嘴 46 彼此以直角相间隔地随枢轴 42沿一个回圈 44逆时针枢转而供吸取受测物。 第二面检测装置 7是设置于对应回圈 44的第一位置, 亦即依回圈 44方向逆 时针枢转 90度处。 汲取入料装置 4更包括多个入料座 48。 本例中, 藉设置 两组可相对于枢轴 42的切向滑动的入料座 48, 可保持其中一组入料器 482 在对应于吸嘴 46的汲取位置, 而另一组则可供填入新料。
承载检测装置 5如图 7所示, 包括一组光学检测器 52、 承载移动件 54、 及一组光-电特性检测器 56。 光学检测器 52是供分析检测受测物的第一面外 观,甚至颜色;设置于基座的承载移动件 54则包括沿检测方向彼此平行配置 的两条皮带 542及驱动两条皮带 542的皮带轮 544。 汲取分类装置 6如图 8 所示, 包括沿检测方向、衔接前述承载捡测装置而设置的输送件 62; 本例的 分类方向与检测输送方向呈垂直, 机械臂 64具有一组自输送件 62上汲取受 测物、 并释放至承载器 66的汲取器 642。
承载器 66在本例中是被区分为多个组, 下方分别设置有将承载器 66沿 分类方向, 使承载器 66移出基座外, 方便取放承载器 66的导滑件 68。第一 实施例中虽仅绘示单组汲取分类装置 6, 实施本发明时, 更可以连接方式增 加汲取分类装置 6的组数, 以提供分类所需。 当汲取分类装置 6所包括的承 载器如图 3所示被分为三排, 为避免分别将各排承载器 66移出基座 3外时, 产生不必要的意外状况, 本案如图 9所示, 分别以每排承载器为一组, 对每 组承载器设置一组按钮作为止动件 60。 当操作人员按压按钮时, 将驱动处理 装置 8停止该组机械臂 64对该对应组承载器释放受测太阳能硅晶片,但仍可 维持其它组机械臂与承载器的正常供输, 从而提升产出效率。
运用上述架构, 实际操作流程如图 10: 起始步骤 900由汲取入料装置以 暴露受测太阳能硅晶片第二面的方式, 由第一面吸取硅晶片; 其次步骤 902 以第二面检测装置检测太阳能硅晶片第二面,并将所得资料输出至处理装置。 接续于步骤 904将受测太阳能硅晶片以第二面向下、 受承载检测装置承载的 方式, 输送至承载检测装置; 进行步骤 906时, 由承载检测装置检测太阳能 硅晶片第一面特性, 并传输至处理装置。
最终步骤 908, 处理装置判断受测太阳能硅晶片的分类, 并指令汲取分 类装置的汲取器自承载检测装置吸取太阳能硅晶片第一面,并以第二面向下, 置放至多个承载器之一对应分类。 依步骤 900至步骤 908, 周而复始逐片进 行自动化检测, 依据目前发明人的试运转结果, 原型机检测速率可达 2400 片 /小时, 与常见产品相较, 效率已不能仅以倍增形容。
本发明的第二实施例敬请参考图 11, 为第二实施例的方块图, 结构与第 一实施例相仿。太阳能硅晶片检测机台 2,包括基座 3'、汲取入料装置 4'、承 载检测装置 5'与汲取分类装置 6',本例将第二面检测装置 7'安排于汲取分类 装置 6'前端, 一样可发挥本发明的效益, 处理装置 8'则提供检测讯号收发与 处理, 为自动化检测的中枢。
进一步说明第二实施例,敬请参考图 12,太阳能硅晶片检测机台 2,的基 座 3,的内侧配置处理装置 8'与气压变换装置 22', 基座 3'上方左侧为汲取入 料装置 4,, 本例为直线性进料。 承载检测装置 5'职司运输及检测, 第二面检 测装置 7'检测第二面, 汲取分类装置 6'则进行最终的分类。基本构想与第一 实施例相仿, 不再赘述。
如图 13与图 14所示第三实施例,分别为检测机台 2"的俯视图与立面侧 视图,该后端分类系统以模组化的设计融入该检测机台 2", 当然亦可应用于 如常见现有检测机台 (图未示)的改装, 基本上, 该分类系统衔接于该检测机 台 2"检测装置的分类端侧,并于适当位置设置例如警示灯号的警示装置 29"。
请一并参考图 15、 图 16及图 17, 其系接续来自上述检测完毕的检测讯 号, 利用检测所得的太阳能硅晶片分类信息, 就此进行机台的驱动控制与分 类操作, 除配置于具有多个承载位置 322"的基座 3"上的收纳装置 36"与供 应装置 35"外, 更藉由搬移装置 37"用以在供应装置 35"、 及收纳装置 36" 间搬移多个承载器 66"。
由图 15细俯视观察,本例的该基座 3"上间隔有六个承载位置 322"配置, 每个承载位置 322"供容置一个上述承载器, 而如图 17所示, 对应每一组承 载器 66", 有一可水平位移汲取硅晶片所用的汲取器 642", 当输送件 62"输 送硅晶片抵达对应的承载位置 322", 汲取器 642"可利用吸嘴汲取硅晶片, 并释放硅晶片于上述承载位置 322"中所对应的承载器 66"。
当然由图 16及图 17更清楚知悉本例的分类系统将利用处理装置的驱动, 连结供应装置 35"及收纳装置 36" ,且供应装置 35"及收纳装置 36"视承载器 66"填满与否, 决定是否通过升降器 371 "及输送带 372"移动至图 18所示的 收纳位置 361" , 并同时令供应装置 35"所容纳的承载器堆叠中, 最上方的承 载器被顶高至对应于搬移装置的端部位置 351",以等候汲取器汲取输送件传 递来的硅晶片。 当然, 如熟于此技术者所能轻易理解, 供应装置 35"中所能 容纳的承载器数量并非限于六个, 接收承载器处亦可选择位在供应装置 35" 的底部, 且图示中留空部份也仅是说明而非必要限制条件。
如图 19及图 20先后所示, 当前文所述的六个承载位置中的任一个承载 器已达预定装载容量, 对应中央汲取器 642"的承载器 66"已经满载, 则处理 装置将驱动一个空置的承载器 66"预备替补, 且指令对应该位置的升降器 371"令承载器 66"下降, 藉此, 输送带 372"将此满载承载器 66"向图式右上 方移动, 往图 18所示右侧的收纳装置 36"方向前进, 且让空置的承载器 66" 补上原来位置。 当然, 如同前文, 收纳装置 36"的最上层位置也经常保持净 空, 故满载的承载器将抵达收纳装置 36"的收纳位置 361 ", 堆叠于收纳装置 36"中既有的承载器堆叠上方,收纳装置 36"随即将此堆叠下降,保留收纳位 置 361 "的净空。
如前段所述, 如此周而复始, 分类系统不断进行分类动作, 直至供应装 置 35"中所有承载器皆已送出或即将耗尽, 或收纳装置 36"的收纳空间已满 或将满, 方才需要警示并要求操作人员 (图未示)介入, 以补充供应装置 35" 中所欠缺的承载器, 或移出即将堆满收纳装置 36"的已满载太阳能硅晶片的 承载器堆叠。 如图 21至图 23所示的第四实施例, 于此例释为一装配有位移器的天车 的搬移装置 37",, 图 21中, 有一容纳硅晶片的承载器 66",已满, 并可明了 位于基座上的端部位置 351,"及收纳位置 361" '皆为净空状态; 于图 22、 23 中, 利用搬移装置 37",, 满载承载器 66"'被移动至收纳位置 361"', 且端部 位置 351",由前文所示的升降机构于端部位置 351,"获得一清空承载器 66"'; 随后, 由搬移装置 37,"将清空承载器 66'"移动至遗留的承载位置 322"', 并 令处于收纳位置 36Γ"的满载承载器 66"'下降。
依照上述各实施例说明, 无论第二面检测装置配置于前端或后端, 皆可 在不翻转太阳能硅晶片的状况下提供另面检测, 自然无损坏太阳能硅晶片的 顾虑。 且因承载器的装填与取出, 均位于后端分类系统的供应装置与收纳装 置的位置, 此动作并不干涉太阳能硅晶片分类系统持续进行中的分类动作, 汲取器依然可将硅晶片交由对应的承载器容置。 亦即, 即使一位操作人员同 时兼顾数台检测机台, 也无须固定守候任一机台, 仅需在警示装置警示时适 度处理。 如此, 操作人员可同时管理多部机台而游刃有余。 因而藉由本发明 确实可以有效达成本申请的所有上述目的。
以上所述仅为本发明的较佳实施例而已, 不能以此限定本发明实施的范 围, 即凡依本发明申请的保护范围及发明说明书内容所作简单的等效变化与 修饰, 皆应仍属本发明专利涵盖的范围内。
