[0046] Specifically, the two photovoltaic cells 3 of the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 are photovoltaic cells 3 with positive and negative poles on different sides.

[0048] The photovoltaic cells 3 in the photovoltaic cell main string 1 and the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 of this embodiment 1 are multi-busbar photovoltaic cells. There are three types of photovoltaic cells 3 in the photovoltaic module. The front and back battery grid lines of the three types of photovoltaic cells 3 are composed of battery main grid lines 6 and battery fine grid lines that are perpendicular to each other.

[0050] The polarities of the serial connection ends of the two photovoltaic cell main strings 1 are opposite. Figure 7 and 8 As shown, the first photovoltaic cell main string 1-1 is formed by connecting n first photovoltaic cells 3-1 in series, with the connecting end being the tail of the photovoltaic cell main string 1, the interconnecting main grid line 4 at the head of the photovoltaic cell main string 1 is led out from the back of the photovoltaic cell 3 at the head, and the connecting end interconnecting main grid line 4-2 is led out from the front of the photovoltaic cell 3 at the tail, the connecting end interconnecting main grid line 4-2 has a lead-out length that matches the length of a photovoltaic cell 3, and is used to connect with the corresponding photovoltaic cell 3 of the photovoltaic cell bus string 2, the auxiliary wire 5 vertically crosses the lead-out part of the connecting end interconnecting main grid line 4-2, the number of the auxiliary wires 5 is 1 to 5, and is located on the side of the connecting end interconnecting main grid line 4-2 away from the photovoltaic cell 3, the auxiliary wire 5 is welded or bonded to the connecting end interconnecting main grid line 4-2, and the connecting end interconnecting main grid line 4-2 is a low-temperature welding wire. In the figure, the number of the auxiliary wire 5 is 1.
[0051] The auxiliary line 5 is arranged on the side of the serial-end interconnection main grid line 4-2 away from the photovoltaic cell 3 to avoid the auxiliary line 5 being sandwiched between the serial-end interconnection main grid line 4-2 and the photovoltaic cell 3 of the photovoltaic cell bus string 2, thereby affecting the welding reliability of the serial-end interconnection main grid line 4-2 and the photovoltaic cell 3.
[0052] like Fig. 9 and 10 As shown, the second photovoltaic cell main string 1-2 is also formed by connecting n pieces of the first photovoltaic cell 3-1 in series, with the series connection end being the tail of the photovoltaic cell main string 1, the interconnection busbar 4 at the head of the photovoltaic cell main string 1 is led out from the front of the photovoltaic cell 3 at the head, and the series connection end interconnection busbar 4-2 is led out from the back of the photovoltaic cell 3 at the tail, the lead-out length of the series connection end interconnection busbar 4-2 matches the length of a photovoltaic cell 3, and is used to connect with the corresponding photovoltaic cell 3 of the photovoltaic cell bus string 2, the auxiliary wire 5 vertically crosses the lead-out part of the series connection end interconnection busbar 4-2, the number of the auxiliary wires 5 is 1 to 5, and is located on the side away from the photovoltaic cell, the auxiliary wire 5 is welded or bonded to the series connection end interconnection busbar 4-2, and the series connection end interconnection busbar 4-2 is a low-temperature welding wire. In the figure, the number of the auxiliary wire 5 is 1.
[0053] like Fig.11 , 12As shown in FIG. 13 , the first photovoltaic cell bus string 2-1 is formed by connecting a second photovoltaic cell 3-2 and a third photovoltaic cell 3-3 in series, the second photovoltaic cell 3-2 is on the left, the third photovoltaic cell 3-3 is on the right, the back of the second photovoltaic cell 3-2 and the front of the third photovoltaic cell 3-3 are connected into a string through a laterally extending bus interconnection busbar 4-1, and there is no interconnection busbar 4 on the front of the second photovoltaic cell 3-2 and the back of the third photovoltaic cell 3-3.
[0054] like Fig.14 , 15 As shown in 16, the second photovoltaic cell bus string 2-2 is also formed by connecting a second photovoltaic cell 3-2 and a third photovoltaic cell 3-3 in series, the third photovoltaic cell 3-3 is on the left, the second photovoltaic cell 3-2 is on the right, the front of the third photovoltaic cell 3-3 and the back of the second photovoltaic cell 3-2 are connected into a string through a laterally extending bus interconnection busbar 4-1, and there is no interconnection busbar on the back of the third photovoltaic cell 3-3 and the front of the second photovoltaic cell 3-2.
[0055] The preparation method of the photovoltaic module with the above-mentioned cell bus in the present embodiment 1 is as follows: prepare the photovoltaic cell main string 1 and the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 respectively, in the layout step of the photovoltaic module, layout the photovoltaic cell main string 1 and the photovoltaic cell bus string 2, in the lamination step of the photovoltaic module, under the lamination process conditions, the series-connected end interconnecting main grid line 4-2 is welded to the corresponding photovoltaic cell 3 of the photovoltaic cell bus string 2, and the series connection between the two adjacent photovoltaic cell main strings 1 is completed through the photovoltaic cell bus string 2.
[0056] In the layout step of the photovoltaic module, the specific method for layout of the photovoltaic cell main string 1 and the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 is: firstly, the photovoltaic cell main string 1 is swung, and then the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 and the serial end interconnection main grid line 4-2 are stacked in place.
[0057] The specific process of stacking the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 and the serial terminal interconnection main grid line 4-2 is as follows:
[0058] First, lift up the serial-end interconnecting busbar 4-2 and the photovoltaic cell 3 of the serial-end of the photovoltaic cell main string 1, and then stack the photovoltaic cell 3 on one side of the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 below the lifted serial-end interconnecting busbar 4-2 of the photovoltaic cell main string 1, and stack the photovoltaic cell 3 on the other side of the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 above the serial-end interconnecting busbar 4-2 of another adjacent photovoltaic cell main string 1 that has not been lifted, and then put down the lifted photovoltaic cell main string 1.
[0059] In this article, the front side of the photovoltaic cell 3 refers to the side of the photovoltaic cell 3 facing the sun during actual outdoor power generation applications; the back side of the photovoltaic cell 3 refers to the side of the photovoltaic cell 3 facing away from the sun during actual outdoor power generation applications; the top and bottom of the photovoltaic cell 3 refer to the top and bottom of the spatial position of the photovoltaic cell 3.
[0060] The arrangement of the photovoltaic cell main string 1 in the photovoltaic module can be a full series layout, or a half-slice or multi-slice layout. Based on the layout design, manufacturing cost and module efficiency, it is generally preferred that the bus bar 7 is only on the side where the junction box is required, and the side without the junction box adopts the above-mentioned cell bus scheme to achieve no bus bar 7. The full series layout is that the junction box is on the head side of the photovoltaic module, and there is no bus bar 7 at the tail of the photovoltaic cell main string 1. The head of the photovoltaic cell main string 1 is connected through the bus bar 7 and connected to the junction box through the bus bar 7.
[0061] Fig. 20 The photovoltaic cell main string 1 of the photovoltaic module shown is arranged in a half-slice or multi-slice format, the junction box is located in the middle of the photovoltaic module, there is no bus bar 7 at the tail of the photovoltaic cell main string 1, and the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 is used to realize the series connection of the photovoltaic cell main string 1. Fig. 20 The middle junction box is not shown.
[0062] To prepare Fig. 20 Taking the photovoltaic module as an example, the specific steps of the above preparation method are further described as follows:
[0063] 1) Preparation of photovoltaic cell main string 1 and photovoltaic cell bus string 2:
[0064] The photovoltaic cell main string 1 and the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 are welded, and the auxiliary wire 5 is welded while the photovoltaic cell pieces 3 are welded into the photovoltaic cell main string 1 through the interconnected main grid lines, and the auxiliary wire 5 is welded together with the serial connection end interconnected main grid line 4-2. The auxiliary wire 5 is used to keep the spacing position between the serial connection end interconnected main grid lines 4-2 fixed during the circulation of the photovoltaic cell main string 1, so as to ensure that the serial connection end interconnected main grid line 4-2 is aligned with the battery main grid line 6 of the corresponding photovoltaic cell piece 3 of the photovoltaic cell bus string 2, and ensure the welding effect;
[0065] 2) Layout of photovoltaic modules:
[0066] The photovoltaic module includes packaging layers and photovoltaic cell layers. The photovoltaic cell layer includes a photovoltaic cell main string 1, a photovoltaic cell bus string 2, and a bus bar 7 connecting the photovoltaic cell main string 1 to a junction box. The packaging layers and photovoltaic cell layers are arranged in sequence.
[0067] Because the side in contact with the bottom plate of the laminator during lamination should be as flat as possible, and the junction box of the photovoltaic module is generally installed on the back of the photovoltaic module, and the bus bar 7 will be led out on the back of the photovoltaic module, which is not as flat as the front of the photovoltaic module. Therefore, during the lamination process, the photovoltaic module is always placed face down in the laminator for lamination. Therefore, during the layout process of the photovoltaic module, the front side is generally used for layout, that is, when the structure of the photovoltaic module is panel layer, front side packaging film layer, photovoltaic cell layer, back side packaging film layer, and back plate layer from top to bottom, the photovoltaic module is laid out in the order of panel layer, front side packaging film layer, photovoltaic cell layer, back side packaging film layer, and back plate layer, and each layer is face down. The packaging structure below the photovoltaic cell layer is the panel layer and the front side packaging film layer.
[0068] The layout steps of the photovoltaic cell layer are as follows:
[0069] 2.1) Placing the photovoltaic cell main string 1: Place the photovoltaic cell main string 1 facing downward on the lower packaging structure according to the designed position, with the side with auxiliary line 5 at the head and tail of the component, and the side without auxiliary line 5 at the middle position. Fig.18 As shown;
[0070] 2.2) Stitch welding:
[0071] Step 1: lift the arranged photovoltaic cell main string 1 to further calibrate the string spacing;
[0072] Step 2: Complete the lap welding of the bus bar 7 at the middle position of the photovoltaic module;
[0073] Step 3: stack the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 and the serial terminal interconnection main grid line 4-2. Fig.18 Taking the two adjacent photovoltaic cell main strings 1 in the lower left corner as an example, lift the tail 1-3 photovoltaic cell sheets 3 and the serial-end interconnection busbar 4-2 of the first photovoltaic cell main string 1 (i.e., the first photovoltaic cell main string 1-1) in the lower left corner, and stack the photovoltaic cell sheets 3 on the left side of the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 facing downward to below the serial-end interconnection busbar 4-2 of the first photovoltaic cell main string 1 (i.e., the first photovoltaic cell main string 1-1), and stack the photovoltaic cell sheets 3 on the right side of the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 to above the serial-end interconnection busbar 4-2 of the adjacent second photovoltaic cell main string 1 (i.e., the second photovoltaic cell main string 1-2) that is not lifted, and align the serial-end interconnection busbar 4-2 with the battery busbar 6 on the surface of the corresponding photovoltaic cell sheet 3 of the photovoltaic cell bus string 2;
[0074] Step 4: Fig.18Taking the two adjacent photovoltaic cell main strings 1 in the lower left corner as an example, the lifted first photovoltaic cell main string 1 is put down. During the putting down process, the battery main grid line 6 on the surface of the photovoltaic cell 3 corresponding to the serial end interconnection main grid line 4-2 and the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 is kept aligned. The photovoltaic cell bus string 2 is stacked with the serial end interconnection main grid line 4-2 in place, as shown in FIG. Fig.19 As shown;
[0075] Step 5: Fig.18 Taking the two adjacent photovoltaic cell main strings 1 in the lower left corner as an example, the auxiliary line 5 of the first photovoltaic cell main string 1 and the photovoltaic cell sheet 3 on the left side of the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 are fixed by hot melt glue or UV glue, and the photovoltaic cell sheet 3 on the right side of the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 and the adhesive film of the packaging structure below are ironed together by heating points. This fifth step can be removed or added depending on the stability of the production line. Other adjacent photovoltaic cell main strings 1 are also connected in series through the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 according to the above steps. The series connection of adjacent photovoltaic cell main strings 1 in the photovoltaic module can be carried out simultaneously;
[0076] 3) Lamination steps of photovoltaic modules:
[0077] During lamination, the lamination temperature is ensured to be higher than the melting temperature of the low-temperature welding layer of the serial-end interconnected main grid line 4-2, and the serial-end interconnected main grid line 4-2 is welded to the corresponding photovoltaic cell piece 3 of the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 to complete the series connection between the two adjacent photovoltaic cell main strings 1 through the photovoltaic cell bus string 2.
[0078] The other preparation steps of the above-mentioned photovoltaic module with integrated cells in this embodiment 1 are basically the same as the preparation steps of conventional modules.
[0079] The welding of the photovoltaic cell main string 1 and the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 in step 1 can be automatically welded by an existing welding machine; the swing string in step 2.1 can be automatically swing string by an existing swing string machine; the stitch welding in step 2.2 can be automatically stitch welded by an existing stitch welding machine. Of course, in order to better lift the serial end interconnection main grid line 4-2, it is only necessary to change the size of the vacuum suction nozzle for adsorbing the battery cell of the existing swing string machine and stitch welding machine to make it more suitable for adsorbing the auxiliary line 5, or replace the vacuum suction nozzle with a clamp to clamp the auxiliary line 5 by the clamp.
[0080] The power and color of the photovoltaic cell sheets 3 of the photovoltaic cell main string 1 and the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 are of the same or similar level.
[0081] The serial-connected interconnecting main grid wire 4 - 2 is a low-temperature welding wire, and the remaining interconnecting main grid wires can be either low-temperature welding wires or normal welding wires.
[0082] The photovoltaic cell main string 1 in the photovoltaic module can be an even number string or an odd number string, such as Fig. 20The photovoltaic cell main string 1 in the photovoltaic module shown is an even number string, and the tail of the photovoltaic cell main string 1 is connected in series through the photovoltaic cell bus string 2. When the photovoltaic cell main string 1 is an odd number string, one of the photovoltaic cell main strings 1 can be connected through the interconnecting main grid line extending laterally of the second photovoltaic cell sheet 3-2 or the third photovoltaic cell sheet 3-3 and the bus bar 7 as the jumper 7-1, and connected to the junction box, such as Fig.21 and 22 As shown, Fig.21 yes Fig. 22 Schematic diagram of a photovoltaic panel with its front side facing downward. Fig. 22 The junction box is also not shown.
[0083] The photovoltaic cells 3 in the photovoltaic cell main string 1 and the photovoltaic cell bus string 2 of the present embodiment 1 may also be busbar-less photovoltaic cells.
