[0046] Embodiment three:
[0047] Reference Figure 3 to Figure 5 and Fig.10As shown, the present embodiment discloses a photovoltaic module, which includes a battery string 3, a glass plate 42 and a back plate 43 arranged on the upper and lower sides of the battery string 3, and the battery string 3 and the glass plate 42 and / or the battery string 3 and the back plate 43 are encapsulated by an encapsulation film such as in any one of the first embodiment or the second embodiment. Among them, the battery string 3 includes a plurality of sub-battery strings 30 arranged between two adjacent bus bars 31. The sub-battery string 30 includes a plurality of battery cells 32. Exemplarily, a plurality of bus bars 31 (top bus bar 31, central bus bar 31 and bottom bus bar 31) are connected to the top, bottom and center of the battery string 3, so there are two sub-battery strings 30. The EVA film layer 1 is encapsulated between the bus bar 31 and the glass plate 42 and / or between the bus bar 31 and the back plate 43, and the POE film layer 2 is encapsulated between the battery string 3 and the glass plate 42 and / or between the battery string 3 and the back plate 43. As Fig.10 As shown, when the upper and lower sides of the battery string 3 are provided with a glass plate 42 and a back plate 43 respectively, in the vertical direction, the POE film layer 2 is arranged correspondingly to the upper and lower distribution areas of the battery string 3, and the EVA film layer 1 is arranged correspondingly to the upper and lower distribution areas of the bus bar 31, that is, the EVA film layer 1 covers the upper and lower surfaces of the bus bar 31, and the POE film layer 2 covers the upper and lower surfaces of the two sub-battery strings 30. Because the encapsulation film not only has good anti-PID performance, it can prevent water vapor from penetrating and corroding the battery string 3, and has excellent bonding properties of the EVA film layer. Moreover, due to the fast cross-linking reaction of the EVA film layer, it can avoid insufficient cross-linking at the upper and lower ends of the battery string 3 during the lamination process; at the same time, due to the good bonding effect of the EVA film layer 1, the phenomenon of stratified bubbles on the edge of the battery string 3 after aging of the encapsulation film is avoided; and because the EVA film 1 has good fluidity, it can well fill the height difference and eliminate bubbles. According to this design, the packaging effect between the battery string 3 and the glass plate 42 or the battery string 3 and the back plate 43 in this embodiment is good, which can avoid the appearance of stratified bubbles at the end of the photovoltaic module, improve the cross-linking degree, have strong bonding ability, and improve the anti-PID performance.
[0048] Specifically, in order to completely cover the busbar 31 with the EVA film layer 1 and completely cover the battery string 3 with the POE film layer 2, refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the length and width of the EVA film layer 1 in this embodiment are greater than or equal to the length and width of the bus bar 31, the length and width of the POE film layer 2 are greater than or equal to the length and width of the sub-cell string 30, and the length of the POE film layer 2 is less than the spacing distance between two adjacent bus bars 31. In this way, the bus bar 31 and the cell string 3 can be completely covered by the EVA film layer 1 and the POE film layer 2.
[0049] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, there are three busbars 31, the battery string 3 includes two sub-battery strings 30, a sub-battery string 30 is provided between two adjacent busbars 31, and the sub-battery string 30 includes a plurality of battery cells 32. The battery string 3 and the glass plate 42 of the photovoltaic module and / or the battery string 3 and the back plate 43 are encapsulated by the encapsulation film as shown in the first embodiment. Since the encapsulation film includes three EVA film layers 1 and two POE film layers 2, the three EVA film layers 1 arranged at intervals can completely encapsulate the three busbars 31, and the POE film layer 2 between each two adjacent EVA film layers 1 can completely encapsulate the sub-battery string 30 between each two adjacent busbars 31.
[0050] Exemplarily, the battery cell in this embodiment is a P-type battery cell or an N-type battery cell. Figure 6 As shown, when the cell in the photovoltaic module is a P-type cell 301, since the anti-PID performance of the lower surface of the P-type cell 301 is poor, the encapsulation film 102 covers the lower surface of the cell string 3, and the lower surface of the encapsulation film 102 is provided with a back plate 43. Of course, the present application is not limited to this, and the photovoltaic module further includes another encapsulation film 101 as in any one of the first embodiment or the second embodiment, and the encapsulation film 101 covers the upper surface of the cell string 3, and the upper surface of the encapsulation film 101 is provided with a glass plate 42.
[0051] Embodiment 4:
[0052] The difference from the third embodiment is that: Figure 7 As shown, when the cell in the photovoltaic module in this embodiment is an N-type cell 302, since the upper surface of the N-type cell 302 has poor anti-PID performance, the encapsulation film 101 covers the upper surface of the cell string 3, and the upper surface of the encapsulation film 101 is provided with a glass plate 42. Of course, the present application is not limited to this, and the photovoltaic module further includes another encapsulation film 102 as in any one of the first embodiment or the second embodiment, and the encapsulation film 102 covers the lower surface of the cell string 3, and the lower surface of the encapsulation film 102 is provided with a back plate 43.
[0053] Embodiment five:
[0054] The difference from the third or fourth embodiment is that: Figure 8 , Fig. 9As shown, in this embodiment, there are two busbars 31, the battery string 3 includes a sub-battery string 30, the sub-battery string 30 is arranged between adjacent busbars 31, and the sub-battery string 30 includes a plurality of battery cells 32. The battery string 3 and / or the glass plate 42 of the photovoltaic module or the battery string 3 and the back plate 43 are encapsulated by an encapsulation film as in any one of the first embodiment or the second embodiment. Since the encapsulation film includes two EVA film layers and one POE film layer, the EVA film layers at both ends can completely encapsulate the busbars 31 at both ends, and the middle POE film layer can encapsulate the middle sub-battery string 30.
[0055] It can be seen from the above technical solutions that the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0056] The utility model provides a packaging film, which has the advantages of good PID resistance of the POE film layer, ability to avoid water vapor intrusion, slow aging and yellowing, and protection of battery strings from corrosion, and has the excellent bonding performance of the EVA film layer;
