[0016] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0017] See also Figure 1-4 The utility model provides an embodiment: a semiconductor thermoelectric generator, the corner positions of the thermoelectric generator body 1 are all fixed with support feet 3, the support feet 3 are made of copper, including a thermoelectric generator body 1 and right-angle sealing joints 4 installed on both sides of the surface of the thermoelectric generator body 1, the positive lead 5 and the negative lead 6 electrically connected to the thermoelectric generator body 1 are installed inside the two right-angle sealing joints 4, and the top of the thermoelectric generator body 1 is installed with an upper heat conducting plate 2, the thickness of the upper heat conducting plate 2 is 5mm to 15mm, and the sufficient thickness of the upper heat conducting plate 2 can ensure its mechanical stability during use, and avoid deformation or damage due to being too thin;

[0018] The right-angle sealing joint 4 includes a right-angle joint 401 fixed on both sides of the surface of the thermoelectric power generation sheet body 1, and an external threaded sleeve 402 fixed on the top of the right-angle joint 401. An internal threaded head 403 threadedly matched with the external threaded sleeve 402 is fixed on one end of the surface of the positive lead 5 and the negative lead 6. A double-layer bile ring 404 is fixed on the inner wall of the external threaded sleeve 402. The inner diameter of the double-layer bile ring 404 is equal to the outer diameter of the positive lead 5 and the negative lead 6. The right-angle joint 401 is fixed on the outer wall of the thermoelectric power generation sheet body 1 for the positive lead 5 or the negative lead 6 to be routed and led out. The internal threaded head 403 and the external threaded sleeve 402 threadedly match to eliminate the gap between the positive lead 5 and the negative lead 6 and the right-angle joint 401, thereby effectively preventing the loss of heat energy;

[0019] The thermoelectric power generation sheet body 1 comprises an insulating ceramic shell 101 mounted at the bottom end of the upper heat conducting sheet 2, and an upper copper sheet 102 and a lower copper sheet 103 mounted on the top wall and the bottom wall of the insulating ceramic shell 101, an upper copper foil 104 and a lower copper foil 105 are mounted on opposite sides of the upper copper sheet 102 and the lower copper sheet 103, and a plurality of N-type semiconductors 106 and P-type semiconductors 107 are alternately mounted between the upper copper foil 104 and the lower copper foil 105 in sequence;

[0020] Under the action of temperature difference, a PN junction is formed at the contact of the N-type semiconductor 106 and the P-type semiconductor 107. When the temperature difference on both sides causes different concentrations of electrons and holes inside the semiconductor, charge diffusion will cause a potential difference to be formed at the PN junction. Due to the existence of the potential difference at the PN junction, carrier electrons and holes will flow in the semiconductor to form a current. The upper copper sheet 102, the lower copper sheet 103, the upper copper foil 104, and the lower copper foil 105 are connected to the N-type semiconductor 106 and the P-type semiconductor 107 as electrodes, thereby conducting the generated current.

The double-layer bile ring 404 and the sealing ring 501 ensure that there will be no air leakage or heat leakage when the lead goes out, thereby protecting the heat energy and electric energy conversion efficiency inside the thermoelectric power generation sheet. The combined design of the right-angle joint 401, the double-layer bile ring 404, and the sealing ring 501 makes the lead more firmly fixed, reduces the gap between the lead and the shell joint, and reduces the possibility of being affected by the external environment.

[0022] When the embodiment of the present application is in use, first, the thermoelectric power generation chip body 1 is between two environments with different temperatures, for example, between a heat source and a cold source. Due to the heat conduction characteristics, a temperature difference will be formed on both sides of the thermoelectric power generation chip body 1. At this time, the current derived from the positive lead 5 and the negative lead 6 can be used to do work, such as driving electronic equipment, rechargeable batteries, etc., to achieve energy conversion. A right-angle sealing joint 4 is additionally provided at the connection between the positive lead 5, the negative lead 6 and the shell of the thermoelectric power generation chip body 1. The right-angle sealing joint 4 can better fix the positive lead 5 and the negative lead 6, reduce the gap between the lead and the shell, thereby reducing the risk of heat loss, and the use of the right-angle sealing joint 4 can better maintain the fixed position of the lead, reduce the possibility of being affected by the external environment, and help to improve the stability and reliability of the thermoelectric power generation chip in complex environments such as vibration and temperature changes, and extend its service life.
