[0058] As Figure 1 shown, as an embodiment of the present invention, the solar cell module includes at least one battery string unit 30, and each battery string unit 30 includes:
[0059] A first battery string 301 and a second battery string 302 spaced apart along the second direction X;
[0060] A third battery string 303 and a fourth battery string 304 spaced apart along the second direction X, the first battery string 301 and the third battery string 303 are arranged along the first direction Y, and the second battery string 302 and the fourth battery string 304 are arranged along the first direction Y.
[0061] Wherein, the first battery string 301 and the second battery string 302 are connected in series, the third battery string 303 and the fourth battery string 304 are connected in series, the first battery string 301 and the third battery string 303 are connected in parallel, and the second battery string 302 and the fourth battery string 304 are connected in parallel. The second battery string 302 of each battery string unit 30 is adjacent to and connected in series with the first battery string 301 of an adjacent battery string unit 30, and the fourth battery string 304 of each battery string unit 30 is adjacent to and connected in series with the third battery string 303 of an adjacent battery string unit 30.
[0062] Specifically, one end of the first battery string 301 and the second battery string 302 of each battery string unit 30 is connected in series through an edge busbar 306, the third battery string 303 and the fourth battery string 304 are also connected in series through an edge busbar 306, the first battery string 301 and the third battery string 303 are connected in parallel through an intermediate busbar 308, the second battery string 302 and the fourth battery string 304 are connected in parallel through an intermediate busbar 308, the second battery string 302 of the battery string unit 30 is connected in series with the first battery string 301 of an adjacent battery string unit 30 through an intermediate busbar 308, and the fourth battery string 304 of each battery string unit 30 is connected in series with the third battery string 303 of an adjacent battery string unit 30 through an intermediate busbar 308. Of course, other connection methods can also be used to achieve the series and parallel connections between the battery strings.
[0063] Wherein, Figure 1Only three battery string units 30 are schematically shown. The battery string units 30 are arranged at intervals in sequence along the second direction X. Each battery string unit 30 includes the above-mentioned first battery string 301, second battery string 302, third battery string 303, and fourth battery string 304.
[0064] In an embodiment of the present invention, a provided solar cell module fixes a welding tape 32 on a first surface 315 by arranging a first pre-fixing film 33 on the first surface 315 of a battery chip 31 of a battery string, and the welding tape 32 does not need to be fixed on the first surface 315 by a welding process; meanwhile, the first pre-fixing film 33 is arranged to include a main body portion 336 and an extension portion 330 connected to and extending outside the battery chip 31 of the main body portion 336. On the premise that the first pre-fixing film 33 is fixedly connected to the first surface 315 by the main body portion 336, the extension portion 330 is simultaneously connected to the first adhesive film 2, so that the first pre-fixing film 33 is fixed more firmly, thereby improving the fixing effect of the first pre-fixing film 33 on the welding tape 32, and the connection between the extension portion 330 and the first adhesive film 2 can improve the pre-fixing effect of the first pre-fixing film 33 on the welding tape 32 before lamination.
[0065] Meanwhile, since the extension portions 330 of at least two adjacent first pre-fixing films 33 in the battery string are overlapped and connected, the extension portion 330 of the first pre-fixing film 33 on one battery chip 31 is overlapped and connected with the extension portion 330 of the first pre-fixing film 33 on the adjacent battery chip 31, so that the adjacent first pre-fixing films 33 can also play a role of mutual fixation, and the adjacent first pre-fixing films 33 are overlapped and connected, which can enhance the structural strength at the connection of the adjacent first pre-fixing films 33, further prevent the first pre-fixing film 33 from moving, improve the fixing effect of the first pre-fixing film 33, and thus improve the fixing reliability of the first pre-fixing film 33 on the welding tape 32. Optionally, the extension portions 330 of any two adjacent first pre-fixing films 33 in each battery string are overlapped and connected, which can improve the fixing effect of each first pre-fixing film 33.
[0066] As an embodiment of the present invention, the extension portion 330 is bent relative to the main body portion 336 in a direction close to the plane where the second surface 316 is located. A part of the extension portion 330 is located on the side of the plane where the first surface 315 is located away from the second surface 316, and a part of the extension portion 330 is located on the side of the plane where the first surface 315 is located close to the second surface 316. The extension portion 330 is non-parallel to the first surface 315. The bent extension portion 330 and the battery cell 31 form a limiting and matching structure, which can well prevent the first pre-fixing film 33 from loosening and shifting, so that the first pre-fixing film 33 is stably fixed on the battery cell 31. At the same time, the extension portion 330 and the first adhesive film 2 and the second adhesive film 4 also form a limiting and matching structure, which is beneficial to increasing the bonding force between the extension portion 330 and the first adhesive film 2 and the second adhesive film 4, and can well prevent the first pre-fixing film 33 from loosening, greatly improving the fixing reliability of the first pre-fixing film 33 to the welding tape 32.
[0067] In some other embodiments, the extension portion 330 can also be bent relative to the main body portion 336 in a direction away from the plane where the second surface 316 is located. The extension portion 330 is all located on the side of the plane where the first surface 315 is located away from the second surface 316. The extension portion 330 can also form a limiting and matching structure with the first adhesive film 2 and the second adhesive film 4, which is beneficial to increasing the bonding force between the extension portion 330 and the first adhesive film 2 and the second adhesive film 4, and also improving the fixing reliability of the first pre-fixing film 33 to the welding tape 32.
[0068] In the embodiment of the present invention, one of the first surface 315 and the second surface 316 of the battery cell 31 is a light-facing surface, and the other is a backlight-facing surface. The battery cell 31 can be a back-contact solar cell or a double-sided contact solar cell. Specifically, in the case where the battery cell 31 is a back-contact solar cell, only the first surface 315 of the battery cell 31 has grid lines. For example, the battery cell 31 can be an IBC solar cell or an HBC solar cell. In the case where the battery cell 31 is a double-sided contact cell, both the first surface 315 and the second surface 316 of the battery cell 31 have grid lines. For example, the battery cell 31 can be a Topcon solar cell.
[0069] In the embodiment of the present invention, both the first cover plate 1 and the second cover plate 5 can be glass, that is, the solar cell module can be a double-glass module; or one of the first cover plate 1 and the second cover plate 5 is glass and the other is a back plate, that is, the solar cell module can be a single-glass module.
[0070] In the embodiment of the present invention, each battery string includes a plurality of welding tapes 32, and the specific number of the welding tapes 32 in each battery string is not limited, and the specific number of the welding tapes 32 can be flexibly set according to actual applications. Specifically, each welding tape 32 extends along the first direction Y, that is, the length direction of the welding tape 32 is the first direction Y, and the welding tapes 32 are sequentially arranged at intervals along the second direction X.
[0071] In an embodiment of the present invention, the main body portion 336 completely covers the first surface 315, that is, the size of the main body portion 336 is the same as the size of the battery cell 31, so that the first welding portion 321 of the welding tape 32 is fixed on the first surface 315 of the battery cell 31.
[0072] In an embodiment of the present invention, the number of the first pre-fixing films 33 is adapted to the number of the battery cells 31, and one first pre-fixing film 33 is correspondingly arranged on each battery cell 31, which is convenient for fixing the welding tape 32 on each battery cell 31. Moreover, compared with laying a whole pre-fixing film on the entire battery string, in this embodiment, one first pre-fixing film 33 is correspondingly arranged on each battery cell 31. When the first pre-fixing film 33 is adsorbed and laid on the battery cell 31, during this process, the first pre-fixing film 33 is not easily bent and deformed, which is more convenient for the adsorption and laying of the first pre-fixing film 33, and is convenient for performing the film covering process of the first pre-fixing film 33, and can reduce the production and processing difficulty of the solar cell module. Each first pre-fixing film 33 forms an extension portion 330 at at least one battery edge of the battery cell 31, or an extension portion 330 can also be formed at each battery edge of the battery cell 31. Wherein, the extension portion 330 is specifically the part of the first pre-fixing film 33 that extends beyond the edge of the battery cell 31.
[0073] Please refer to Figures 4 - 10 , in an embodiment of the present invention, the battery cell 31 includes a first battery edge 311 and a second battery edge 312 that are oppositely arranged along the first direction Y, and a third battery edge 313 and a fourth battery edge 314 that are oppositely arranged along the second direction X.
[0074] Wherein, the extension portion 330 may include a first extension portion 331 connected to the main body portion 336 and extending along the first direction Y to the outside of the first battery edge 311, a second extension portion 332 connected to the main body portion 336 and extending along the first direction Y to the outside of the second battery edge 312, a third extension portion 333 connected to the main body portion 336 and extending along the second direction X to the outside of the third battery edge 313, and a fourth extension portion 334 connected to the main body portion 336 and extending along the second direction X to the outside of the fourth battery edge 314. Wherein, the extension portion 330 includes at least one of the first extension portion 331, the second extension portion 332, the third extension portion 333, and the fourth extension portion 334.
[0075] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 10 , as an embodiment of the present invention, the battery cell 31 includes a first battery edge 311 and a second battery edge 312 that are oppositely arranged along the first direction Y;
[0076] The outer extension part 330 includes a first outer extension part 331 and a second outer extension part 332. The first outer extension part 331 and the second outer extension part 332 are respectively arranged at opposite ends of the main body part 336 along the first direction Y. The first outer extension part 331 covers the first battery edge 311 and extends to the outside of the first battery edge 311. The second outer extension part 332 covers the second battery edge 312 and extends to the outside of the second battery edge 312. The first outer extension part 331 of the first pre-fixing film 33 overlaps and connects with the second outer extension part 332 of the adjacent first pre-fixing film 33.
[0077] In this embodiment, the welding strip 32 extends along the first direction Y. At least a part of the welding strips 32 extend to the outside of the first battery edge 311, and at least a part of the welding strips 32 extend along the first direction Y to the outside of the second battery edge 312. The first outer extension part 331 wraps around the position of the first battery edge 311 of the welding strip 32, making it difficult for the welding strip 32 to shift in position at the first battery edge 311. At the same time, the second outer extension part 332 wraps around the position of the second battery edge 312 of the welding strip 32, making it difficult for the welding strip 32 to shift in position at the second battery edge 312. This can greatly improve the fixing stability of the welding strip 32 at the positions of the first battery edge 311 and the second battery edge 312, and further improve the structural reliability of the solar cell module. Moreover, at least a part of the area where the welding strip 32 extends beyond the first battery edge 311 is covered and fixed by the first outer extension part 331, and at least a part of the area where the welding strip 32 extends beyond the second battery edge 312 is covered and fixed by the second outer extension part 332, preventing the welding strip 32 from loosening at the positions of the first battery edge 311 and the second battery edge 312, thereby improving the fixing effect of the welding strip 32 at the positions of the first battery edge 311 and the second battery edge 312. The first outer extension part 331 of the first pre-fixing film 33 overlaps and connects with the second outer extension part 332 of the adjacent first pre-fixing film 33.

[0120] In this embodiment, each extension portion 330 is bent from the edge of the battery cell 31 towards the plane where the second surface 316 is located to form a first extension portion 3311. The first extension portion 3311 is used to cover the edge position of the battery cell 31. The first part of the first extension portion 3311 is located on the side of the plane where the first surface 315 is located away from the second surface 316, and the second part of the first extension portion 3311 is located on the side of the plane where the first surface 315 is located close to the second surface 316. That is, part of the first extension portion 3311 is located above the plane where the first surface 315 is located, and part of the first extension portion 3311 is located below the plane where the first surface 315 is located. The first extension portion 3311 can better restrict the movement of the first pre-fixing film 33, and can increase the bonding force between the extension portion 330 and the first adhesive film 2 and the second adhesive film 4, and can further improve the fixing effect of the first pre-fixing film 33 on the welding tape 32.
[0121] Please refer to Figure 11 , as an embodiment of the present invention, the first extension portion 3311 includes an upper surface 3310 arranged away from the second surface 316. The upper surface 3310 includes a first end close to the battery cell 31 and a second end away from the battery cell 31. The vertical distance from the first end of the upper surface 3310 to the plane where the second surface 316 is located is greater than the vertical distance from the second end of the upper surface 3310 to the plane where the second surface 316 is located.
[0122] In this embodiment, since the first extension portion 3311 is bent from the first battery edge 311 towards the plane where the second surface 316 is located, and the vertical distance from the first end of the upper surface 3310 to the plane where the second surface 316 is located is greater than the vertical distance from the second end of the upper surface 3310 to the plane where the second surface 316 is located, the upper surface 3310 of the first extension portion 3311 and the main body portion 336 are located in different planes, and the first extension portion 3311 is inclined relative to the second surface 316, which is beneficial to increasing the total length design of the extension portion 330, thereby increasing the bonding area between the extension portion 330 and the first adhesive film 2 and the second adhesive film 4, and improving the adhesion of the extension portion 330.
[0123] As an embodiment of the present invention, the vertical distance from the upper surface 3310 to the plane where the second surface 316 is located gradually decreases from the first end to the second end direction.
[0124] In this embodiment, in the direction from the first end to the second end, the vertical distance from the upper surface 3310 to the plane where the second surface 316 is located gradually decreases from the first end to the second end direction, which is beneficial to increasing the length of the extension portion 330 and increasing the fixing effect of the extension portion 330 on the first adhesive film 2 and the second adhesive film 4.

The upper surface 3310 of the first extension portion 3311 may also be a wavy surface, that is, the upper surface 3310 of the first extension portion 3311 is a surface with concave and convex connections, which can increase the surface roughness of the first extension portion 3311, and thus can increase the bonding force between the first extension portion 3311 and the second adhesive film 4, further improving the fixing effect of the first pre-fixing film 33.
[0127] As an embodiment of the present invention, the angle C between the upper surface 3310 of the first extension portion 3311 and the plane of the second surface 316 is 10° to 80°. In this embodiment, the angle C between the upper surface 3310 of the first extension portion 3311 and the plane of the second surface 316 is set within the range of 10° to 80°, which can not only improve the fixing effect of the first extension portion 3311, but also avoid too large a bending angle of the first extension portion 3311, making the first extension portion 3311 not easily broken and improving the structural reliability of the first pre-fixing film 33. For example, the angle C between the upper surface 3310 of the first extension portion 3311 and the plane of the second surface 316 can be any value among 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, 60°, 70°, 80°.
[0128] As another embodiment of the present invention, the upper surface 3310 of the first extension portion 3311 may also be a non-inclined surface, and the angle between the connection line between the first end and the second end of the upper surface 3310 and the plane of the second surface 316 is set to 10° to 80 degrees, which can also increase the fixing effect of the first pre-fixing film 33, ensure the good fixing performance of the first pre-fixing film 33, and make the extension portion 330 not easily break, ensuring the good structural strength of the first pre-fixing film 33.

On the one hand, it can increase the adhesion between the first pre-fixing film 33 and the battery cell 31 and improve the fixing effect of the first pre-fixing film 33. On the other hand, it can avoid too large a bending angle of the first extension portion 331, prevent the fracture of the first extension portion 331, and improve the structural stability of the first extension portion 331.
[0135] Please refer to Figures 13 - 14 , the first extension portion 331 wraps the entire area of the first side surface 3191, which can greatly increase the adhesion between the first pre-fixing film 33 and the battery cell 31 and further prevent the loosening of the first pre-fixing film 33; moreover, the welding tape 32 can be fixed on the first side surface 3191 by using the first extension portion 331, which can avoid the warping and loosening of the welding tape 32 in the direction away from the second surface 316 at the position of the first battery edge 311, and greatly improve the fixing effect of the welding tape 32 fixed at the position of the first battery edge 311.

The filling portion 21 of the first adhesive film 2 is embedded between the first extension portion 3311 of the first extension portion 331 and the first side surface 3191. The filling portion 21 of the first adhesive film 2 can improve the fixing effect of the first pre-fixing film 33. At the same time, the filling portion 21 has a buffering effect on the first extension portion 331 of the first pre-fixing film 33, which can prevent the first extension portion 331 from breaking, improve the structural reliability of the first pre-fixing film 33, and further improve the structural reliability of the solar cell module. Similarly, the second extension portion 332 does not completely cover the second side surface 3192 of the battery cell 31.

[0141] In this embodiment, the second extension portion 3312 of each extension portion 330 is connected between the first adhesive film 2 and the second adhesive film 4, which can further increase the bonding area between the extension portion 330 and the first adhesive film 2 and the second adhesive film 4, and is beneficial to further improving the fixing effect of the first pre-fixing film 33. Among them, the second extension portion 3312 can be arranged parallel to the second surface 316 of the battery cell 31, or the second extension portion 3312 can be arranged non-parallel to the second surface 316 of the battery cell 31.
[0142] As an embodiment of the present invention, the second extension portion 3312 and the first extension portion 3311 are arranged at an angle to each other, that is, the second extension portion 3312 is non-parallel or non-collinear with the first extension portion 3311, and the second extension portion 3312 is bent relative to the first extension portion 3311, which is beneficial to further increasing the bonding force between the extension portion 330 and the adhesive film.
[0143] Please refer to Figure 14, as an embodiment of the present invention, the extension portion 330 further includes a third extension portion 3314 connected to the first extension portion 3311 and extending to the second surface 316, and the third extension portion 3314 surrounds a partial area of the second surface 316.
[0144] In this embodiment, the extension portion 330 is provided with a third extension portion 3314 connected to the first extension portion 3311 and extending to the second surface 316. The third extension portion 3314 surrounds the edge partial area of the second surface 316. By using the cooperation between the third extension portion 3314 and the second surface 316, the extension portion 330 can be surrounded and fixed on the battery cell 31, which can further prevent the first pre-fixing film 33 from detaching from the battery cell 31, further play a role in fixing the first pre-fixing film 33, improve the fixing effect of the first pre-fixing film 33, and further improve the fixing effect of the solder strip 32.

[0145] Please refer to Figure 6 , as an embodiment of the present invention, the thickness D2 of the main body portion 336 is less than the thickness D3 of the battery cell 31.
[0146] In this embodiment, the first pre-fixing film 33 can be flexibly set according to the thickness of the battery cell 31, and the thickness of the first pre-fixing film 33 before lamination is less than the thickness of the battery cell 31. For example, when the thickness of the battery cell 31 is 100 - 180 microns, the thickness of the first pre-fixing film 33 before lamination can be 5 - 150 microns, as long as the thickness of the first pre-fixing film 33 is less than the thickness of the battery cell 31. The thickness of the main body portion 336 is less than the thickness of the battery cell 31, which is beneficial to the first pre-fixing film 33 to be bent to form the extension portion 330 after lamination, beneficial to increasing the fixing effect of the first pre-fixing film 33, and at the same time can avoid the influence of the over-thickness of the first pre-fixing film 33 on the performance of the solar cell module.

Furthermore, the cavity structure provided in the extension portion 330 can act as a buffer, reducing stress on the extension portion 330 and preventing fracture of the extension portion 330. Specifically, the cavity structure can be a hollow cavity or a cavity filled with air.
[0149] As an embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of at least a portion of the first extension portion 3311 is greater than the thickness of the main body portion 336 .
[0150] In this embodiment, the thickness of the first extension portion 3311 may be greater than the thickness of the main portion 336 in only a portion of the first extension portion 3311, or the thickness of the entire first extension portion 3311 may be greater than the thickness of the main portion 336. Since the thickness of at least a portion of the first extension portion 3311 can be greater than the thickness of the main portion 336, the structural strength of the first extension portion 3311 can be further increased, the tensile strength of the first extension portion 3311 can be improved, and the first extension portion 3311 can be prevented from breaking, thereby improving the performance of the first pre-fixed film 33. Furthermore, the bonding strength between the first extension portion 3311 and the first adhesive film 2 and the second adhesive film 4 can be increased, further enhancing the fixing effect of the first pre-fixed film 33.

This can not only utilize the third extension portion 333 and the fourth extension portion 334 to increase the fixing effect of the first pre-fixing film 33, but also prevent the first pre-fixing films 33 on two adjacent battery strings in the second direction X from overlapping, which is beneficial to reducing the cost of the first pre-fixing film 33.
