[0044] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as limiting the present application.
[0045] The present application aims to at least solve the technical problem that the heat dissipation capacity of photovoltaic junction boxes in the related art is relatively poor. To this end, the present application proposes a photovoltaic junction box and a photovoltaic module, which can improve the heat dissipation capacity of the photovoltaic junction box while ensuring that the cost is basically the same by optimizing the structure of the photovoltaic junction box, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the diode working outdoors.
[0046] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 4 A photovoltaic junction box 1 according to an embodiment of the present application is described.
[0047] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the photovoltaic junction box 1 includes: a box body 10 , a diode module and a base 20 .
[0048] The box body 10 forms a receiving cavity 30 with one end open, and the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10 is provided with a boss and an exhaust hole 130;
[0049] The diode module is installed in the accommodating cavity 30 and supported on the boss. The diode module is spaced apart from the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10. The exhaust hole 130 faces the diode module. The accommodating cavity 30 is filled with potting glue that wraps the diode module.
[0050] The base 20 is mounted on the open end of the box body 10 .
[0051] The box body 10 is the main external structure of the photovoltaic junction box 1, forming a accommodating cavity 30 with one end open, which is used to install and fix the internal electrical components. On the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10, there are provided a boss and an exhaust hole 130. The boss is used to support the diode module to ensure that the diode module is stable in the accommodating cavity 30 and has a certain space. The exhaust hole 130 faces the diode module and is used to discharge the air therein when the potting glue fills the accommodating cavity 30, so as to avoid the formation of bubbles in the potting glue and affect the performance of the photovoltaic junction box 1.
[0052] The diode module is a key electrical component of the photovoltaic junction box 1. Its main function is to protect the photovoltaic module and avoid damage due to local overheating, short circuit or other electrical problems. The diode module is installed in the accommodating cavity 30 and supported on a boss. There is a certain distance between the diode module and the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10, which helps to dissipate heat and prevent electrical contact.
[0053] The potting compound is a liquid filling material, which enters the interior of the photovoltaic junction box 1 through the potting port 140, and then solidifies at room temperature into a thermosetting polymer insulating material with excellent performance, and the thermal conductivity can be 0.3-0.4. For example, it can be made of epoxy resin, polyurethane or silicone, and is used to fill the accommodating cavity 30 and wrap the diode module, so as to protect and stabilize the electrical components, prevent water and dust, conduct heat and dissipate heat, and enhance the insulation performance and mechanical strength. The box body 10 can be made of a polymer material, and the thermal conductivity can be 0.15-0.3, such as polyphenylene ether or polyether amide. During the potting compound filling process, the exhaust hole 130 is conducive to the flow of the potting compound, and the space between the diode module and the base 20 can be filled with the potting compound. The high thermal conductivity of the potting compound can be used to directly take away the heat generated by the diode module, and ensure that the air can be discharged smoothly to avoid the formation of bubbles.
[0054] The base 20 is installed at the open end of the box body 10 to close the accommodating cavity 30 and protect the internal electrical components. The base 20 is usually connected to other external devices or cables to achieve electrical connection between the photovoltaic junction box 1 and the external system.
[0055] According to the photovoltaic junction box 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the protection and electrical connection functions of the photovoltaic components are realized through the coordinated action of components such as the box body 10, the diode module and the base 20, and the structure of the photovoltaic junction box 1 is optimized. The heat dissipation capacity of the photovoltaic junction box 1 can be improved, and the temperature of the diode module during operation can be reduced, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the operation of the diode module. At the same time, when the operating temperatures of the diode modules are close, a diode module with a lower configuration can be used, thereby effectively reducing costs.
[0056] In some embodiments, Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the boss includes a first boss 121 and a second boss 122 that are spaced apart from each other, and the exhaust hole 130 is disposed between the first boss 121 and the second boss 122 .
[0057] In the technical solution of the present application, the boss includes a first boss 121 and a second boss 122 that are spaced apart, which are generally used to enhance the strength and stability of the structure, support other components, or to separate or define specific spaces or areas. The exhaust hole 130 is located between the two bosses and can be used to discharge the gas generated in the closed space formed between the two bosses during the encapsulation process, reduce the formation of bubbles, improve the encapsulation quality, and help improve production efficiency and product qualification rate. At the same time, it can prevent pressure accumulation and ensure the normal operation of the system. The size and position of the exhaust hole 130 are determined according to specific application requirements to ensure sufficient exhaust volume and appropriate exhaust direction. The structure and size of the boss are also designed according to application requirements to ensure sufficient strength and stability.
[0058] By optimizing the layout of the bosses and the exhaust holes 130, the space can be maximized and the potting area can be ensured to be fully filled while avoiding unnecessary material waste. Good exhaust and potting effects can reduce potential problems in subsequent processes, such as bubble expansion, material deformation, etc., which helps to reduce production costs and improve product quality. At the same time, the first boss 121 and the second boss 122 are in contact with the diode module and can act as a heat sink. The position of the exhaust hole 130 allows air circulation, which helps to dissipate heat and prevent the diode module from overheating.
[0059] It can be understood that by setting the first boss 121 and the second boss 122 apart and the exhaust hole 130 therebetween, exhaust can be effectively discharged, potting efficiency can be improved, space utilization can be optimized, product reliability can be improved, subsequent processes can be simplified, and thermal management can be enhanced.
[0060] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the first boss 121 and the second boss 122 are arranged to be inclined toward each other's side surfaces, and are inclined in directions away from each other along a direction away from the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10 .
[0061] In the technical solution of the present application, the first boss 121 and the second boss 122 are spaced apart from each other, and the sides are inclined and facing each other. The inclined first boss 121 and the second boss 122 help to guide the gas to flow toward the exhaust hole 130. When the potting glue fills the accommodating cavity 30, the inclined boss can more effectively push the gas toward the exhaust hole 130, thereby reducing the formation of bubbles, and also increasing the structural stability of the boss. It can provide additional support when subjected to external force and reduce the risk of deformation or damage of the boss. At the same time, through the inclined setting, the boss can be more effectively arranged in a limited space to ensure that there is enough space for gas flow and exhaust.
[0062] During the potting process, the inclined boss side helps the potting compound flow and fill more evenly, thereby improving the quality and effect of potting. When the diode module or other electronic components generate heat during operation, the inclined boss side helps the heat diffusion and convection, thereby improving the thermal management effect.
[0063] It can be understood that the first boss 121 and the second boss 122 are arranged to be inclined toward each other's sides, which not only helps to discharge gas and evenly fill the potting compound, but also improves the stability of the structure and the thermal management effect.
[0064] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, a limiting flange 123 is provided on the side of the first boss 121 facing away from the second boss 122 , and the limiting flange 123 protrudes from the top surface of the first boss 121 .
[0065] In the technical solution of the present application, the first boss 121 and the second boss 122 are two independent parts protruding from the surrounding surface, which are used to support and install the diode module. A limiting flange 123 is provided on the side of the first boss 121 away from the second boss 122, which is used to ensure that the diode module installed on the first boss 121 and the second boss 122 can be accurately positioned or restricted to prevent excessive movement. The limiting flange 123 protrudes from the top surface of the first boss 121 and can serve as a physical barrier to ensure that the flange can effectively contact or cooperate with the diode module to prevent the diode module from exceeding a predetermined range during installation, thereby helping to ensure the stability and reliability of the component or equipment.
[0066] The limiting flange 123 protrudes from the top surface of the first boss 121, which can not only provide a positioning function, but also enhance the structural strength of the first boss 121 to a certain extent. By adding additional material and making it protrude from the top surface, the limiting flange 123 can resist external impact or pressure, thereby protecting the first boss 121 from damage, and can simplify the alignment and positioning steps of components during the assembly process, easily achieve precise positioning, reduce assembly time and errors, and improve equipment performance.
[0067] It can be understood that a limiting flange 123 is provided on the side of the first boss 121 away from the second boss 122, and the limiting flange 123 protrudes from the top surface of the first boss 121, which can be accurately positioned to prevent excessive movement, and can also enhance structural strength, simplify the assembly process, and improve equipment performance.
[0068] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10 is provided with a supporting portion 150 surrounding the boss, the supporting portion 150 protrudes from the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10, the distance from the top surface of the supporting portion 150 to the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10 is greater than the distance from the top surface of the boss to the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10, and the connection row of the diode module is supported on the supporting portion 150.
[0069] A supporting portion 150 surrounding the boss is provided on the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10 and protrudes from the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10 for supporting specific components or parts, such as a diode module. The distance from the top surface of the supporting portion 150 to the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10 is greater than the distance from the top surface of the boss to the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10, that is, the supporting portion 150 provides an additional supporting plane that is higher than the boss. The connecting row of the diode module is supported on the supporting portion 150, which can ensure the stability and reliability of the diode module and reduce the risk of damage to the diode module due to vibration or impact.
[0070] The support portion 150 and the boss can be used together to accurately position the diode module. The boss can provide an initial positioning point, while the support portion 150 ensures that the diode module is correctly positioned in the box body 10, which is convenient for installation and maintenance. At the same time, by providing an additional support structure, the support portion 150 can enhance the structural strength of the box body 10 in this area, resist external pressure or impact, and protect the components in the box body 10.
[0071] In the technical solution of the present application, the photovoltaic junction box 1 may also include a plurality of positioning columns 160 surrounding the support portion 150 and a glue inlet 140. The glue inlet 140 is mainly used for injecting potting glue. The positioning columns 160 are installed on the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10. The distance from the top surface to the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10 is greater than the distance from the top surface of the support portion 150 to the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10. It is used for positioning and support, and can effectively avoid loosening or misalignment of components caused by vibration, impact and other factors during installation, use or maintenance. The material of the positioning column 160 is generally a material with good weather resistance, corrosion resistance and mechanical strength, such as stainless steel, aluminum alloy, etc. The positioning column 160 is connected to the diode module through a positioning hole cold riveting structure.
[0072] It can be understood that the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10 is provided with a support portion 150 and a positioning column 160 surrounding the boss, and the support portion 150 and the positioning column 160 protrude from the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10, providing a stable support for the connection row of the diode module, which can not only ensure the stability and reliability of the diode module, but also enhance the structural strength of the box body 10 and simplify the installation and maintenance process.
[0073] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple supporting portions 150 , and they are inclined from the direction away from the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10 toward the direction close to the boss.
[0074] In the technical solution of the present application, the support portion 150 is inclined toward the direction close to the boss, which can provide an inclined support surface and optimize the support angle, so that the supported components, such as the connection row of the diode module, can better cooperate with the boss and may reduce movement or damage caused by vibration or impact.
[0075] The inclined support portion 150 can play a guiding role during the assembly process, guiding the supported portion 150 to enter the correct position and cooperate with the boss, thereby improving the accuracy and efficiency of assembly. Multiple inclined support portions 150 form a stable support network inside the box body 10, which increases the stability and reliability of the entire box body 10 and its internal components by providing additional support points and a stable structure. The inclined support portion 150 can also more effectively utilize the space inside the box body 10 to accommodate more components or circuits without increasing the size of the box body 10. The inclined support portion 150 also helps to improve the heat dissipation performance inside the box body 10, and can form a certain air flow channel to help circulate the heat dissipation air, thereby reducing the temperature of internal components and improving the reliability of the equipment.
[0076] It can be understood that multiple support parts 150 inclined along the direction away from the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10 and toward the boss direction can provide support for the box body 10 and its internal components, guide assembly, increase structural stability, optimize space utilization and improve heat dissipation performance.
[0077] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the inner wall of the box body 10 is provided with a first heat dissipation rib 171 protruding from the accommodating cavity 30 , and the outer wall of the box body 10 is provided with a protruding second heat dissipation rib 172 .
[0078] The first heat dissipation rib 171 is located on the inner wall of the box body 10 and protrudes from the accommodating cavity 30, which can effectively increase the surface area of the inner wall of the box body 10 and increase the contact area between the inner wall and the potting glue, thereby significantly increasing the heat dissipation area of the inner wall of the box body 10, more effectively dissipating and conducting the internal heat to the outer wall of the box body 10, improving the overall heat dissipation efficiency, and effectively improving the mechanical strength of the inner wall of the box body 10.
[0079] The second heat dissipation rib 172 is located on the outer wall of the box body 10 and is designed to be protruding. Similar to the first heat dissipation rib 171, the second heat dissipation rib 172 increases the contact area between the outer wall of the box body 10 and the surrounding air, thereby more effectively removing heat through natural convection or forced air cooling, etc., which helps to dissipate heat to the surrounding environment faster and optimize the heat dissipation effect. At the same time, the protrusion of the second heat dissipation rib 172 can avoid heat accumulation, keep internal components running at a lower temperature, and improve the stability and reliability of the equipment.
[0080] It can be understood that the combined design of the first heat dissipation rib 171 and the second heat dissipation rib 172 increases the heat dissipation area on both the inner and outer sides of the box body 10, and improves the heat dissipation efficiency in different ways, which can effectively reduce the internal temperature of the box body 10, ensure the normal operation of internal components, and extend the service life of the equipment.
[0081] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first heat dissipation rib 171 extends from the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10 toward the open end and is spaced apart from the open end;
[0082] The second heat dissipation rib 172 extends from one end to the other end of the box body 10 in the opening direction.
[0083] The first heat dissipation rib 171 extends from the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10 to the open end to a distance of 0.5 mm from the open end. It can be a triangle, square, rectangle, semicircle or other structure. Taking the square as an example, its long dimension is 0.5-2 mm, and other shapes and structures cannot exceed this dimension. The distance between adjacent first heat dissipation ribs 171 is 1-5 mm, and a certain distance is maintained from the open end.
[0084] The first heat dissipation rib 171 extends upward from the inner bottom wall 110 , which helps to guide the heat to flow upward, avoid heat accumulation on the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10 , improve heat dissipation efficiency, and also enhance the structural strength inside the box body 10 and improve the overall stability of the box body 10 .
[0085] The outer wall of the box body 10 is thickened by 0.5-2mm. The second heat dissipation rib 172 extends from the inner bottom wall 110 of the box body 10 to the top. Similar to the first heat dissipation rib 171, it can be a triangular, square, rectangular, semicircular or other structure. Taking the square as an example, its long dimension is 1-10mm, and other shapes and structures cannot exceed this dimension. The distance between adjacent second heat dissipation ribs 172 is 1-5mm.
[0086] The second heat dissipation rib 172 extends from one end of the opening direction of the box body 10 to the other end, covering a larger area of the outer wall of the box body 10, significantly increasing the heat dissipation area, helping to quickly dissipate heat to the surrounding environment, and at the same time helping to more effectively remove heat through natural convection or forced air cooling.
[0087] It can be understood that the first heat dissipation rib 171 and the second heat dissipation rib 172 are respectively arranged on the inner and outer sides of the box body 10, both of which can increase the heat dissipation area and improve the heat dissipation efficiency in different ways. The first heat dissipation rib 171 optimizes the heat dissipation effect by guiding the heat flow and enhancing the structural strength, while the second heat dissipation rib 172 improves the overall performance of the box body 10 by improving the heat dissipation effect. The heat dissipation structure composed of the first heat dissipation rib 171 and the second heat dissipation rib 172 can effectively reduce the internal temperature of the box body 10, ensure the normal operation of the internal components, and extend the service life of the equipment.
[0088] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple first heat dissipation ribs 171, and the multiple first heat dissipation ribs 171 are arranged at intervals;
[0089] There are multiple second heat dissipation ribs 172 , and the multiple second heat dissipation ribs 172 are arranged at intervals.
[0090] In the technical solution of the present application, multiple first heat dissipation ribs 171 are arranged at intervals to form an array layout, which greatly increases the heat dissipation area of the inner wall of the box body 10, so that heat can be more effectively conducted from the inside to the outer wall. The multiple first heat dissipation ribs 171 arranged at intervals can also ensure the uniform distribution of heat inside the box body 10, avoid local overheating, and improve the overall heat dissipation efficiency. While increasing the heat dissipation area, it also enhances the structural strength of the box body 10 and improves the stability and durability of the box body 10.
[0091] The distance between two adjacent first heat dissipation ribs 171 on the same wall is L1, which satisfies: 1mm≤L1≤5mm. L1 within an appropriate range can ensure that the number and distribution of the first heat dissipation ribs 171 can ensure sufficient heat dissipation area, thereby effectively conducting heat from the inside of the box body 10 to the outside. The first heat dissipation ribs 171 are not only used for heat dissipation, but also can support and stabilize the structure of the box body 10. When L1 is within an appropriate range, the first heat dissipation ribs 171 can provide sufficient support while avoiding material waste and weight increase caused by excessive density.
[0092] The plurality of second heat dissipation ribs 172 are also spaced apart to form a heat dissipation network on the outer wall of the box body 10, which significantly increases the heat dissipation area of the outer wall of the box body 10, allowing heat to be dissipated to the surrounding environment more quickly. The plurality of second heat dissipation ribs 172 spaced apart also help to form an air flow channel, which can more effectively remove heat through natural convection or forced air cooling.
[0093] The distance between two adjacent second heat dissipation ribs 172 on the same wall is L2, satisfying: 1mm≤L2≤5mm. L2 within an appropriate range can allow air to flow between the second heat dissipation ribs 172 to form convection, thereby helping to take away heat. At the same time, the spacing range of 1mm to 5mm is feasible in manufacturing. It will not increase the processing difficulty due to a small spacing, nor will it affect the heat dissipation effect due to a large spacing. It can control the manufacturing cost while ensuring the heat dissipation effect and structural strength.
[0094] It can be understood that the first heat dissipation ribs 171 and the second heat dissipation ribs 172, which are arranged at multiple intervals and within an appropriate range, construct an efficient heat dissipation network on both the inside and outside of the box body 10, which can not only increase the heat dissipation area and optimize the heat distribution, but also improve the structural strength of the box body 10. At the same time, through the coordinated heat dissipation method between the inside and the outside, the internal temperature of the box body 10 can be significantly reduced, the normal operation of the internal components can be ensured, and the service life of the equipment can be extended.

[0101] The diode module is installed in the photovoltaic junction box 1. After assembly and installation, the photovoltaic junction box 1 is filled with potting glue for insulation and sealing. Through the synergistic effect of the box body 10, the diode module, the potting glue and the base 20, the protection and electrical connection functions of the diode module can be achieved, the structure of the photovoltaic junction box 1 can be optimized, the heat dissipation capacity of the photovoltaic junction box 1 can be improved, and the temperature of the diode module during operation can be reduced, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the diode module. At the same time, when the operating temperature of the diode module is close, a diode module with a lower configuration can be used, thereby effectively reducing costs.
