[0002] Generally, a photovoltaic module is encapsulated by a frame structure, a laminate, etc., and the frame structure plays a role in fixing and supporting the entire photovoltaic module. Currently, on the market, the surface of the frames of most photovoltaic modules is higher than that of the photovoltaic modules. After long-term use, it is easy to cause dust accumulation at the position of the front frame. After dust accumulation, it will block the surface of the photovoltaic module, which will not only affect the front power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic module, but also cause hot spot phenomenon, leading to safety hazards such as overheating of the photovoltaic module.

[0003] To solve the problem of dust accumulation, some photovoltaic modules adopt frameless A-side frames. For example, the Chinese patent document with the publication number CN218449994U discloses a frame of a photovoltaic module and a photovoltaic module. The frame of the photovoltaic module includes: side plates, a bottom plate and a baffle fixed to the first side of the side plates. The bottom plate is used for adhesively connecting with the bottom surface of the photovoltaic laminate, and the baffle is used for adhesively connecting with the side wall of the photovoltaic laminate; when the bottom plate is adhesively connected with the bottom surface of the photovoltaic laminate, the surface of the baffle facing away from the bottom plate is lower than or flush with the light-facing surface of the photovoltaic laminate.

[0004] Among them, the surface of the baffle facing away from the bottom plate being lower than or flush with the light-facing surface of the photovoltaic laminate forms a frameless A-side frame. However, usually, structural adhesive is used for bonding between the frameless A-side frame and the photovoltaic laminate member. Insufficient adhesive force of the structural adhesive will affect the structural reliability and mechanical properties of the photovoltaic module. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a profile, a frame of a photovoltaic module, and a photovoltaic module, so as to solve the problem that in the prior art, structural adhesive is usually used for bonding between the frameless A-side frame and the photovoltaic laminate member, and insufficient adhesive force of the structural adhesive will affect the structural reliability and mechanical properties of the photovoltaic module.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides a photovoltaic module, including

[0007] a laminate;

[0009] The laminate is provided with a stepped portion protruding outward, and the profile located on one side of the loading space is provided with a card slot, and the stepped portion is engaged with the card slot.

[0010] Further, the laminate includes a front glass, an adhesive film joint, and a back plate. The front glass and the back plate are connected through the adhesive film joint. The area of the back plate is larger than that of the front glass, and the edge of the back plate extends beyond the edge of the front glass to form the stepped portion.

[0011] Further, the laminate includes a front glass, an adhesive film joint, and a back plate. The front glass and the back plate are connected through the adhesive film joint. The area of the front glass is larger than that of the back plate, and the edge of the front glass extends beyond the edge of the back plate to form the stepped portion.

[0012] Further, the sun-facing end of the profile is lower than or flush with the plane where the front glass is located.

[0013] Further, the profile includes a bottom support and a side support. The side support is connected to the bottom support. A stepped surface is formed at the position of the side support close to the card slot, and the stepped surface supports the side surface of the laminate.

[0014] Further, a first glue overflow groove is provided at the position of the stepped surface of the side support.

[0015] Further, a second glue overflow groove and a third glue overflow groove are provided in the card slot. The second glue overflow groove is located in the side direction of the stepped portion, and the third glue overflow groove is located in the bottom direction of the stepped portion.

Detailed Embodiment

[0026] Next, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. What is described here is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and those skilled in the art can think of other ways to implement the present invention based on the preferred embodiment, and other ways also fall within the scope of the present invention.

[0027] Embodiment 1

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 , this embodiment provides a photovoltaic module, including a laminate 100; a plurality of profiles 200, and the plurality of profiles 200 are connected to form a loading space for loading the laminate 100; the laminate 100 is provided with a step part 140 protruding outward, and the profile 200 is provided with a card slot 230 on one side of the loading space, and the step part 140 is engaged with the card slot 230. The engagement between the two forms an assembly relationship, making it difficult for the laminate 100 to disengage from the loading space. On the other hand, the cooperation relationship between the step part 140 and the card slot 230 increases the contact area between the laminate 100 and the profile 200, and structural adhesive can be added in the step part 140 and the card slot 230 for bonding. The bonding area of the structural adhesive is larger, which can improve the bonding force of the structural adhesive between the laminate 100 and the profile 200, and improve the structural reliability and mechanical properties of the photovoltaic module.

[0029] Specifically, in this embodiment, as Figure 1As shown, the laminate 100 includes a front glass 110, an encapsulant bonding part 120, and a backsheet 130. The front glass 110 and the backsheet 130 are connected through the encapsulant bonding part 120. The area of the backsheet 130 is larger than that of the front glass 110, and the edge of the backsheet 130 extends beyond the edge of the front glass 110 to form a step part 140. The edge of the backsheet 130 is engaged with the card slot 230. The front glass 110 and the backsheet 130 are connected through the encapsulant bonding part 120. As a whole, the laminate 100 can be effectively connected to the loading space formed by the profile 200, increasing the connection stability between the laminate 100 and the profile 200. It should be noted that the encapsulant bonding part 120 includes solar cells, which are used for photoelectric conversion to generate electricity. The backsheet 130 can adopt a back glass structure or other material structures. In this embodiment, the backsheet 130 is a back glass structure.

[0030] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the sun-facing end of the profile 200 is lower than or flush with the plane where the front glass 110 is located. The sun-facing end of the profile 200 will not block the front glass 110, forming a photovoltaic frame structure without an A side. The area of the front glass 110 can be fully utilized, which helps to increase the power generation of the photovoltaic module. Moreover, this photovoltaic frame structure without an A side can reduce the dust accumulation on the surface area of the front glass 110, further avoiding the blockage of the front glass 110 and improving the power generation efficiency.

[0031] To match the structure of the laminate 100, the structure of the profile 200 has also been correspondingly improved. In this embodiment, please continue to refer to Figure 1 , the profile 200 includes a bottom support 210 and a side support 220. The side support 220 is connected to the bottom support 210. The width of the bottom support 210 does not exceed the width of the side support 220, and does not block the backsheet 130. The backsheet 130 is a back glass structure, increasing the power generation on the back of the photovoltaic module. The outer side surface of the side support 210 is an arc surface structure, and the arc surface bends towards the laminate 100. A stepped surface 221 is formed at the position of the side support 220 close to the card slot 230. The stepped surface 221 supports the side surface of the laminate 100, improving the stability of the side support for the laminate 100. A first glue overflow groove 240 is provided at the position of the stepped surface 221 of the side support 220. When gluing between the stepped surface 221 and the side surface of the laminate 100, the risk of the adhesive overflowing onto the surface of the front glass 110 can be reduced.

[0032] In this embodiment, in addition to engaging with the step portion 140 of the laminate 100, an adhesive needs to be added between the card slot 230 and the laminate 100. Therefore, a second overflow groove 231 and a third overflow groove 232 are provided in the card slot 230. The second overflow groove 231 is located in the side direction of the step portion 140, and the third overflow groove 232 is located in the bottom direction of the step portion 140. The second overflow groove 231 and the third overflow groove 232 provide more space for the adhesive, which can prevent the adhesive from overflowing and contaminating the profile 200 or the surface of the back plate 130. It should be noted that the adhesive and the bonding adhesive in this embodiment are both silicone.

[0033] A plurality of profiles 200 form a loading space through splicing. In this embodiment, a cavity 250 is provided at the position of the bottom support 210 of the profile 200, and the cavities 250 of the respective profiles 200 are connected by corner codes. A reinforcing rib 260 for supporting the cavity 250 is provided in the cavity 250. The reinforcing rib 260 can improve the load strength of the profile 200 and reduce the risk of deformation of the profile 200.

[0034] Embodiment 2

[0035] Different from the first embodiment, in this embodiment, the laminate 100 includes a front glass 110, a film bonding portion 120, and a back plate 130. The front glass 110 and the back plate 130 are connected through the film bonding portion 120; the area of the front glass 110 is larger than the area of the back plate 130, and the edge of the front glass 110 extends beyond the edge of the back plate 130 to form a step portion 140. At this time, the edge of the front glass 110 cooperates with the card slot 230 of the profile 200, so that the laminate 100 and the profile 200 are stably assembled.
