NOVELTY - The soldering head (1) comprises a soldering side with which the soldering head is placed at the solder point during the soldering process, an inductor loop with a supply region and a decoupling region (7) arranged on the solder side, a base body made of an electrically non-conductive material, a fastening unit with which the base body is fixed at the inductor loop, and a flange. The decoupling region of the inductor loop is exposed on the solder side. The base body is constructed in several parts including a first part and a second part, and comprises two spacer elements.    USE - The soldering head is useful for an induction soldering device for soldering a contact band on a solar cell (claimed).    ADVANTAGE - The soldering head ensures rapid and efficient soldering of the contact band on the solar cell with high stability and reproducibility.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - The soldering head (1) comprises a soldering side with which the soldering head is placed at the solder point during the soldering process, an inductor loop with a supply region and a decoupling region (7) arranged on the solder side, a base body made of an electrically non-conductive material, a fastening unit with which the base body is fixed at the inductor loop, and a flange. The decoupling region of the inductor loop is exposed on the solder side. The base body: is constructed in several parts including a first part and a second part; comprises two spacer elements (10) on the solder side, and a unit for relative positioning of the first part and second part; and consists of a fiber reinforced, high temperature resistant plastic. The first part is fixed with the fastening unit in the supply region at the inductor loop, and the second part comprises the spacer elements. The distance of the inductor loop from the base material is variably adjustable. The spacer elements: are arranged on both sides of the decoupling region and outside the decoupling region; extend beyond the decoupling region of the induction loop; and define a base material on the solder side, where the spacing of the inductor loop from the base material in the decoupling region is 0.1-2 mm. The inductor loop comprises a U-shaped basic form, a first bend of two legs, and a second bend closing the uncoupling region, where the first bend separates the supply region and the decoupling region. The two legs run parallel to each other in the direction of the solder side in the supply region and in the decoupling region and run parallel to the solder side. The two arms in the adjoining area parallely run away from the solder side and form a semicircular end of inductor loop in a subsequent section. The induction loop is made of a silver or gold plated copper tube, which is cooled by a cooling liquid. A detachable connection of the inductor coil with a high frequency generator and the coolant supply is produced on the flange. An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for a method of soldering a contact band on a solar cell.    DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The figure shows a schematic cross-sectional view of a soldering head.
