Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of solar photovoltaic technology, in particular to a solar module and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the growing global demand for sustainable energy, solar energy, a clean, renewable energy source, is experiencing continuous innovation in its conversion technology. Among the numerous solar energy conversion technologies, flexible photovoltaic modules, with their unique technical characteristics and broad application prospects, are gradually changing our understanding of traditional photovoltaic technology and heralding a new technological revolution in the solar industry.

[0003] The demand for large photovoltaic modules is gradually increasing due to their high power output characteristics. Large photovoltaic modules have the following problems:

[0004] The high cost of lamination, which heats from the bottom up, also leads to long lamination times, low surface crosslinking, short product lifespan, front-side adhesive defects, and cavities. Reverse lamination, however, prevents front-side inspection and is more likely to cause surface defects, resulting in low yields, high costs, and waste. Conventional flipping methods make it difficult to re-flip materials and can easily cause internal material shifting, leading to product failure.

[0005] How to solve the above problems is the industry’s top priority. Summary of the Invention

[0006] Purpose of the Invention: To address the problems and shortcomings of existing technical solutions, the present invention provides a solar module and a method for manufacturing the same. The solution provided by this application is low-cost, easy to operate, highly reliable, can improve surface cross-linking, reduce production time, and address issues such as cavities and glue shortages.

[0007] The specific technical solutions are as follows:

[0008] A method for preparing a solar module, comprising:

[0009] S1. Laminating materials for preparing solar modules in a predetermined order to obtain modules to be laminated;

[0010] S2. A solar flip table is provided. The solar flip table comprises: table legs, a table frame, an adjustable lock, a bearing, and a product fixture. The product fixture is located inside the table frame and includes: an infeed table and an outfeed table. The bearing is located in the middle of the table frame, and the product fixture can flip around the bearing inside the table frame. The adjustable lock is located on the table frame.

[0011] S3. Open the product fixture, place the component to be laminated on the feed table, flip the discharge table over to cover the feed table, and lock the adjustable lock;

[0012] S4: Turn the product fixture 180° around the bearing;

[0013] S5: Open the product fixture, take out the flipped components to be laminated, and laminate the flipped components to be laminated into one piece by a laminator to form a solar panel.

[0014] Furthermore, after S1, the following step is also included: inspecting the surface of the component to be laminated. If the surface is intact, S2 is executed; if there are damages, cracks, hot spots, or foreign objects blocking the surface, new materials for preparing the solar component need to be replaced for re-lamination.

[0015] Furthermore, S1, stacking materials for preparing solar modules in a predetermined order, including:

[0016] The front film, the first packaging film, the solar cell layer, the second packaging film, the support layer, the third packaging film and the back plate are stacked from top to bottom.

[0017] Furthermore, S1, stacking materials for preparing solar modules in a predetermined order, including:

[0018] The back sheet, the third packaging film, the support layer, the second packaging film, the solar cell layer, the first packaging film and the front film are stacked from top to bottom.

[0019] Furthermore, the first packaging film, the second packaging film, and the third packaging film are made of any one of the following materials: EVA, POE, and EPE.

[0020] Furthermore, the materials of the support layer and the back plate include any one of the following: PCB, CPC, KPF, polyolefin, glass fiber reinforced polypropylene

[0021] On the other hand, the present application also provides a solar module, which is prepared by the above-mentioned method for preparing a solar module.

[0022] Beneficial effects:

[0023] This application uses a flip table to flip the inspected laminated parts, solving the problem of the product surface being unable to be inspected, reducing the product surface defect rate; and improving the surface cross-linking degree, reducing production time; and solving defects such as cavities and glue shortages;

[0024] On the one hand, by using this structure to flip the product, the surface of the product can be checked first, thus reducing the defective rate of the surface;

[0025] On the other hand, using the flip table with this structure to flip the product surface downward for lamination can allow the product surface to be heated first, increase the cross-linking degree of the product surface, and reduce the lamination time.

[0026] In addition, the flip table is inexpensive and uses a central bearing for flipping, making it easy to operate and even easy to flip heavy, large products. It is highly practical and simple to manufacture. Its structure uses a central bearing for flipping, allowing it to rotate to any angle, unlike a book flip, which can only flip on one side.

[0027] In summary, the solution proposed in this application is low-cost, easy to operate, can improve surface crosslinking, reduce production time, and solve problems such as cavities and adhesive deficiencies. During lamination, if this solution is not used and direct forward lamination is performed, it may cause cell breakage, affecting product function and lifespan. This solution can overcome this problem. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
