[0032] As shown in FIG1 , the present application provides a solar cell electrode structure, including: a main grid line 10, a pad 20 and a secondary grid line 40. The main grid line 10 is annular and is arranged around the periphery of the pad 20, and the main grid line 10 is conductively connected to the pad 20. The secondary grid line 40 is arranged around the periphery of the main grid line 10 in an radiating shape, and the secondary grid line 40 is conductively connected to the main grid line 10.
[0033] As shown in Figure 4, Figure 4 is a partial schematic diagram of a traditional solar cell electrode structure. In the traditional solar cell electrode structure, the main grid line is in the shape of a long strip, and the pad is directly overlapped on the main grid line. In the above-mentioned solar cell electrode structure, the main grid line 10 is annular and is arranged around the periphery of the pad 20, and the main grid line 10 and the pad 20 are conductively connected. By surrounding the main grid line 10 around the periphery of the pad 20, compared with the traditional solar cell electrode structure in which the pad is directly overlapped on the long strip of the main grid line, the solar cell electrode structure of the present application can make the transmission distance of the current from the main grid line 10 to the pad 20 shorter, thereby achieving a stronger current transmission capability.
[0034] 2 , in some embodiments, the solar cell electrode structure further includes a main grid connection line 30. There is a gap between the main grid line 10 and the pad 20, and the main grid connection line 30 is disposed between the main grid line 10 and the pad 20, and the main grid connection line 30 is conductively connected to the main grid line 10 and the pad 20.
[0035] It is understandable that the pad 20 in the solar cell electrode structure is used for welding the welding strip in the subsequent preparation of the photovoltaic module, and different cells are connected through the welding strip. There is a gap between the main grid line 10 and the welding pad 20, and the main grid line 10 and the welding pad 20 are connected by the main grid connection line 30 arranged between the main grid line 10 and the welding pad 20, and the current collected on the main grid line 10 is further transmitted to the welding pad 20 through the main grid connection line 30, which can reduce the impact of welding on the main grid line 10 when the welding strip and the welding pad are connected by welding.
[0036] In some embodiments, there are multiple main grid connection lines 30 , and the multiple main grid connection lines 30 are arranged between the main grid line 10 and the pad 20 at intervals.
[0037] A plurality of main grid connection lines 30 are disposed at intervals between the main grid lines 10 and the pads 20 , and can provide a plurality of current transmission paths for transmitting current from the main grid lines 10 to the pads 20 , thereby improving the current collection capability.
[0038] In some embodiments, the pad 20 is circular, the main grid line 10 is annular, and the pad 20 and the main grid line 10 are arranged in concentric circles.
[0039] The pad 20 is circular, the main grid line 10 is annular, and the pad 20 and the main grid line 10 are arranged in concentric circles, so that the lengths of the main grid connection lines 30 can be equal, so that the current is evenly collected from the main grid line 10 to the pad 20 .
[0040] In some embodiments, a plurality of main grid connection lines 30 are arranged between the main grid line 10 and the pad 20 at equal arc intervals with the pad 20 as the center point.
[0041] Multiple main grid connection lines 30 are evenly distributed in equal arcs with the pad 20 as the center point. While providing multiple current transmission paths for current transmission from the main grid line 10 to the pad 20, it is also possible to achieve a shorter transmission distance when current is transmitted from the main grid line 10 to the pad 20 from each main grid connection line 30.
[0042] It should be noted that the multiple main grid connection lines 30 are arranged at equal arc intervals with the pad 20 as the center point, which means that the extension lines of the multiple main grid connection lines 30 all pass through the center of the pad 20, and the angles between adjacent main grid connection lines 30 are equal. Taking the circular pad 20 as an example, the multiple main grid connection lines 30 are evenly distributed, which means that the extension lines of the multiple main grid connection lines 30 all pass through the center of the pad 20, and the angles between adjacent main grid connection lines 30 are equal.
[0043] In some embodiments, the secondary grid lines 40 are arranged around the main grid lines 10 in a radial shape with equal arc intervals around the pad 20 as the center point.
[0044] In some embodiments, the busbar line 10 is overlapped on the surface of the busbar connection line 30 .
[0045] It can be understood that the busbar line 10 overlaps the surface of the busbar connection line 30 , that is, the busbar line 10 covers a portion of the surface of the busbar connection line 30 .
[0046] In some embodiments, the width of the main grid line 10 is 0.5 mm to 1 mm. Optionally, the width of the main grid line 10 is 0.5 mm, 0.52 mm, 0.54 mm, 0.56 mm, 0.58 mm, 0.6 mm, 0.62 mm, 0.64 mm, 0.66 mm, 0.68 mm, 0.7 mm, 0.72 mm, 0.74 mm, 0.76 mm, 0.78 mm, 0.8 mm, 0.82 mm, 0.84 mm, 0.86 mm, 0.88 mm, 0.9 mm, 0.92 mm, 0.94 mm, 0.96 mm, 0.98 mm or 1 mm. Alternatively, the width of the main grid line 10 may also be within the range between any two of the above widths.
[0047] In some embodiments, the radius of the pad 20 is 1 mm to 2 mm. Optionally, the radius of the pad 20 is 1 mm, 1.05 mm, 1.1 mm, 1.15 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.25 mm, 1.3 mm, 1.35 mm, 1.4 mm, 1.45 mm, 1.5 mm, 1.55 mm, 1.6 mm, 1.65 mm, 1.7 mm, 1.75 mm, 1.8 mm, 1.85 mm, 1.9 mm, 1.95 mm or 2 mm. Alternatively, the radius of the pad 20 may also be within the range between any two of the above radii.
[0048] In some embodiments, the radial distance between the busbar 10 and the pad 20 is 1 mm to 10 mm.
[0049] Referring again to FIG. 2 , illustratively, a in FIG. 2 is the radial distance between the main grid line 10 and the pad 20 .
[0050] Within the radial distance range between the main grid line 10 and the pad 20, the transmission distance of the current from the main grid line 10 to the pad 20 can be shortened, thereby increasing the current transport capacity of the current collected from the main grid line 10 to the pad 20, and can also reduce the amount of slurry caused by the main grid line 10 and the main grid connection line 30. Optionally, the radial distance between the main grid line 10 and the pad 20 is 1mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 4.5mm, 5mm, 5.5mm, 6mm, 6.5mm, 7mm, 7.5mm, 8mm, 8.5mm, 9mm, 9.5mm or 10mm. Alternatively, the radial distance between the main grid line 10 and the pad 20 can also be within the range between any two of the above distances.
[0051] 3 , in some embodiments, there are multiple busbars 10 and pads 20 , each busbar 10 and the corresponding pad 20 conductively connected thereto form a group, and multiple groups of busbars 10 and corresponding pads 20 are distributed in an array.
[0052] In some embodiments, the number of the pads 20 is 5×5 to 20×20. Optionally, the number of the pads 20 is 5×5, 6×6, 7×7, 8×8, 9×9, 10×10, 11×11, 12×12, 13×13, 14×14, 15×15, 16×16, 17×17, 18×18, 19×19, or 20×20.
[0053] In some embodiments, the distances between adjacent pads 20 in the column direction are equal.
[0054] In some embodiments, in the row direction, the distances between adjacent pads 20 are equal.
[0055] In some implementations, each main grid line 10 is connected to a plurality of secondary grid lines 40 ; each secondary grid line 40 is connected to a different main grid line 10 .
[0056] In some embodiments, each main grid line 10 is connected to a plurality of secondary grid lines 40 , and the plurality of secondary grid lines 40 connected to the same main grid line 10 are evenly distributed with equal arcs.
[0057] It should be noted that the uniform distribution of equal arcs between the multiple secondary grid lines 40 connected to the same main grid line 10 means that the extension lines of the multiple secondary grid lines 40 all pass through the center point of the pad 20, and the angles between adjacent secondary grid lines 40 are equal. Taking the circular main grid line 10 as an example, the uniform distribution of the multiple secondary grid lines 40 connected to the same main grid line 10 means that the extension lines of the multiple secondary grid lines 40 all pass through the center of the main grid line 10, and the angles between adjacent secondary grid lines 40 are equal.
[0058] In some embodiments, the number of the secondary grid lines 40 connected to each main grid line 10 is 4 to 20. Optionally, the number of the secondary grid lines 40 connected to each main grid line 10 is 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 or 20.
[0059] In some embodiments, eight secondary grid lines 40 are connected to each main grid line 10 , and the angles between the multiple secondary grid lines 40 connected to the same main grid line 10 are all 45°.
[0060] In some embodiments, the solar cell electrode structure further includes a secondary grid connection line 50 , and the secondary grid connection line 50 connects different secondary grid lines 40 .
[0061] By connecting different sub-grid lines 40 through the sub-grid connection line 50, the transmission path after current collection can be increased, and the current collection capability can be improved. When a local gate break occurs, the sub-grid connection line 50 can provide an additional current transmission path, which can reduce the problem of ineffective current collection in the local area due to the gate break.
[0062] In some embodiments, the width of the secondary grid line 40 is 50 μm to 200 μm. Optionally, the width of the secondary grid line 40 is 50 μm, 55 μm, 60 μm, 65 μm, 70 μm, 75 μm, 80 μm, 85 μm, 90 μm, 95 μm, 100 μm, 105 μm, 110 μm, 115 μm, 120 μm, 125 μm, 130 μm, 135 μm, 140 μm, 145 μm, 150 μm, 155 μm, 160 μm, 165 μm, 170 μm, 175 μm, 180 μm, 185 μm, 190 μm, 195 μm or 200 μm. Alternatively, the width of the secondary grid line 40 may also be within the range between any two of the above widths.
[0063] In some embodiments, the width of the secondary gate connection line 50 is 50 μm to 200 μm. Optionally, the width of the secondary gate connection line 50 is 50 μm, 55 μm, 60 μm, 65 μm, 70 μm, 75 μm, 80 μm, 85 μm, 90 μm, 95 μm, 100 μm, 105 μm, 110 μm, 115 μm, 120 μm, 125 μm, 130 μm, 135 μm, 140 μm, 145 μm, 150 μm, 155 μm, 160 μm, 165 μm, 170 μm, 175 μm, 180 μm, 185 μm, 190 μm, 195 μm or 200 μm. Alternatively, the width of the secondary gate connection line 50 may also be within the range between any two of the above widths.
