DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] 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. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. 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.

[0028] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0029] Reference Figure 1As shown, the utility model provides a measuring tool for determining the quality of a photovoltaic module. The measuring tool 1 includes a measuring ruler body 101. The measuring ruler body 101 is a square with a side length of L1, or a rectangle with a length of L1 and a width of L1 / 2. It is made of a transparent deformable material, such as a transparent PET sheet. The size of the measuring ruler body 101 can be the same as the size of a conventional battery cell, or the size of a half-cell battery cell, or the size of a quarter-cell battery cell, that is, the side length L1 of the measuring ruler body 101 is equal to the side length of a conventional battery cell, or is a quarter of the side length of a conventional battery cell, for example, L1 is 156 mm, 125 mm, 210 mm, etc., which is not specifically limited here.

[0030] The measuring ruler body 101 is provided with a length and width measurement area, an area ratio measurement area 107 and a plurality of area measurement areas; specifically, in this embodiment, the length and width measurement area includes a plurality of measurement bars 102 of preset width and preset length, and the plurality of measurement bars 102 are sequentially arranged along one edge of the measuring ruler body 101, such as Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the length and width measurement area specifically includes width measurement scale areas with widths of 2mm, 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 9mm, and 10mm, respectively, and the width measurement scale areas with widths of 2mm, 4mm, 6mm, and 8mm are marked with edge lines to form measurement bars 102 with lengths of 20mm, 30mm, 40mm, and 50mm, respectively. The width measurement scale area with a width of 10mm is directly set at the edge of the first area measurement area 103, and the measurement bars 102 with lengths of 20mm, 30mm, 40mm, and 50mm are spaced 3mm, 5mm, and 7mm apart, respectively, and the measurement bar 102 with a length of 50mm is spaced 9mm apart from the first area measurement area 103. Specifically, Figure 2 shown.

[0031] In actual inspection work, product standards stipulate many requirements that defect size ≤ standard value. This design cleverly sets length readings ranging from 2mm-9mm, and designs measuring bars 102 with lengths of 20mm, 30mm, 40mm, and 50mm respectively. The measuring bars 102 can measure the defect length intuitively and quickly without the need to use a ruler to read the length.

[0032] Further optimization scheme, the area measurement area has an area comparison range of a preset area value, such as 100mm 2 , 200mm 2 , 500mm 2 , 1000mm 2Etc., specifically, in this embodiment, the area measurement area includes a first area measurement area 103, a second area measurement area 104 and a third area measurement area 105 for measuring a nearly square defect area, and a fourth area measurement area 106 and a fifth area measurement area 109 for measuring a nearly circular defect area.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the first area measurement region 103, the second area measurement region 104, and the third area measurement region 105 are all quadrilateral regions, preferably square regions.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the fourth area measurement area 106 and the fifth area measurement area 109 are both circular areas, and the fourth area measurement area 106 and the fifth area measurement area 109 are respectively arranged at two diagonal positions of the measuring ruler body 101 .

[0035] In a possible specific embodiment, the first area measurement region 103 is a square region with a side length of 10 mm, that is, the area of ​​the first area measurement region 103 is 100 mm. 2 .

[0036] In a possible specific embodiment, the second area measurement region 104 is a square region with a side length of 20 mm, that is, the area of ​​the second area measurement region 104 is 400 mm. 2 .

[0037] In a possible specific embodiment, the third area measurement area 105 is a square area with a side length of 30 mm, that is, the area of ​​the third area measurement area 105 is 900 mm 2 .

[0038] In a possible specific embodiment, the fourth area measurement area 106 is a circular area with a radius of R2, and its area is S, S=πR2 2 .

[0039] In a possible specific embodiment, the fifth area measurement area 109 is a circular area with a radius of R1, and its area is S, S=πR1 2 .

[0040] It should be understood that area measurement regions of different sizes may be set according to actual usage requirements, and that multiple area measurement regions of higher usage frequency may be set according to the frequency of measurement.

[0041] A further optimized solution is that the area ratio measurement area 107 includes a plurality of area standard blocks arranged in an array, for example, 3×3, 4×4, and 5×5 arrangements, wherein a single area standard block serves as a standard area unit and is in a certain proportion to the area of ​​the entire battery cell 3 to be tested. By directly measuring the coverage area of ​​the defective area, the percentage of the battery cell area occupied by the defective area can be directly obtained without measuring the length and width of the defective area, and then calculating the area, and then obtaining the area ratio, which can greatly improve the detection efficiency.

[0042] According to a further optimization scheme, the area ratio measurement region 107 accounts for one fourth of the area of ​​the entire measuring ruler body 101 , and is preferably arranged at a corner position of the measuring ruler body 101 .

[0043] In a further optimization scheme, the area occupied by a single area standard block in the area ratio measurement area 107 is 1% of the entire measuring ruler body 101, that is, the area of ​​a single area standard block is L1 2 When the size of the measuring ruler body 101 and the conventional battery cell are the same, the area of ​​a single area standard block is 1 / 100 of the area of ​​a conventional battery cell, that is, the area ratio of a single area standard block is 1 / 100.

[0044] As a further optimization, a hand-held portion 108 is integrally formed on any side of the measuring ruler body 101 to facilitate hand-held operation by inspection personnel.

[0045] In a possible specific embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the size of the measuring ruler body 101 is the same as the size of the solar cell 3 to be tested in the photovoltaic module 2, both of which are squares with a side length of L1. At this time, the photovoltaic module 2 is tested by the measuring tool 1 of this embodiment, and the approximate area of ​​the defect area 301 can be quickly measured to be 100mm 2 , such as Figure 4 shown.

[0046] The parts not described in detail in the present invention are all conventional technical means known to those skilled in the art.

[0047] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside" and "outside" etc., indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0048] The embodiments described above are only descriptions of the preferred methods of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by ordinary technicians in this field should fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the present invention.
