Classification: CPC nan | IPC B  H

Claim 10:
11. A series welding machine, comprising:
a conveyor belt, configured to carry a plurality of solar cells, such that an arrangement of the plurality of solar cells is formed;
an inspection apparatus, configured to perform inspections on the arrangement of the plurality of solar cells, wherein the inspection apparatus includes a polarity inspection device configured to perform polarity inspections on the arrangement of the plurality of solar cells and adjust the arrangement of the plurality of solar cells in response to the polarity inspections not passing, until the polarity inspections on an adjusted arrangement of the plurality of solar cells pass;
a welding mechanism, including a welding table and configured to weld the adjusted arrangement of the plurality of solar cells with a set of welding strips;
a strip-providing mechanism, configured to provide a plurality of initial welding strips arranged at intervals in a first direction, wherein each of the plurality of initial welding strips extends in a second direction, and wherein the plurality of initial welding strips include first initial welding strips and second initial welding strips, and the first initial welding strips interleave with the second initial welding strips in the first direction;
a cutting mechanism, configured to cut each respective initial welding strip of the plurality of initial welding strips along the first direction to obtain a plurality of welding strips, wherein the cutting mechanism includes:
a first cutting device, configured to cut each of the first initial welding strips at one or more first cutting positions; and
a second cutting device, configured to cut each of the second initial welding strips at one or more second cutting positions;

a strip-separating mechanism, configured to move each welding strip of the plurality of welding strips in the second direction to form the set of welding strips having a spacing between each two adjacent welding strips of the plurality of welding strips in the second direction; and
a transferring apparatus, configured to transfer the set of welding strips onto the adjusted arrangement of the plurality of solar cells, such that each welding strip of the set of welding strips contacts with a peripheral solar cell of the adjusted arrangement of the plurality of solar cells or with two respective adjacent solar cells of the adjusted arrangement of the plurality of solar cells.
