[0037] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0038] As Figure 1-6 shown, an embodiment of the present utility model discloses a highly efficient heat - collecting solar thermal component, including:

[0039] Photovoltaic laminate 1,

[0040] Collector 2, the photovoltaic laminate 1 is arranged on the top of the collector 2, and the collector 2 includes: a flat tube 21 and a manifold tube 22; a plurality of flat tubes 21 are provided and are connected side by side; a plurality of flow channels 23 are arranged along the length direction of the inner cavity of the flat tube 21; manifold tubes 22 are arranged at both ends of the flat tube 21, and the manifold tubes 22 are communicated with the flow channels 23.

[0041] When the photothermal component is pressed and formed, the photovoltaic laminate 1 and the collector 2 are stacked from top to bottom first, placed above the mold 3, and enter the lamination chamber in the laminator. After high temperature, vacuum pumping, lamination, and curing, they are completely formed into one body. Due to the height difference at the bottom, the components cannot be stressed evenly, and bubbles and other defects are likely to occur. Even the glass may be crushed, so it is necessary to add a mold at the bottom (such as Figure 5 shown), so that the components are integrated.

[0042] To further optimize the above technical solution, the wall thickness of the flat tube 21 is less than 5 mm, the material is aluminum alloy, and the surface is treated with zinc spraying for anti-corrosion. The flat tube 21 is integrally formed by hot extrusion molding technology. The flat tube 21 with a thickness of 4 mm can withstand a pressure of more than 5 MPA, which is safe and reliable. The flat tube 21 is light in weight. The hollow part of the internal channel of the flat tube 21 accounts for more than 3 / 4 of the volume of the flat tube 21. Compared with the blown plate of the same thickness, it is lighter in weight and has a higher flow channel utilization rate. Both the front and rear of the flat tube 21 are flat structures, and the front and rear shrinkage rates are the same. The flat tube 21 array has gaps and will not warp longitudinally when bonded to the photovoltaic laminate 1 at high temperature. There are metal indentations on the side where the flat tube 21 is combined with the photovoltaic laminate 1 to control the internal shrinkage frequency, and the transverse warping is improved.

[0043] To further optimize the above technical solution, a baffle 24 is arranged in the inner cavity of the manifold tube 22. The shape and size of the baffle 24 are the same as the cross-section of the inner cavity of the manifold tube 22. The baffle 24 can block the refrigerant, change the flow direction of the refrigerant, and play a role in guiding the flow. The position of the baffle 24 in the manifold tube 22 and the number of the baffle 24 can be adjusted appropriately according to needs.

[0044] To further optimize the above technical solution, a refrigerant inlet pipe and a refrigerant outlet pipe are respectively arranged at both ends of the manifold tube 22. Both the refrigerant inlet pipe and the refrigerant outlet pipe are copper pipes, which are welded to both ends of the manifold tube 22.

[0045] To further optimize the above technical solution, reinforcing ribs 25 are arranged at the edges below multiple flat tubes 21. The flat tubes 21, the manifold tubes 22, the baffles 24, and the reinforcing ribs 25 are integrally welded.

[0046] To further optimize the above technical solution, the sum of the thicknesses of the photovoltaic laminate 1, the flat tube 21, and the reinforcing rib 25 is the same as the external dimension of the manifold tube 22.

[0047] To further optimize the above technical solution, multiple indentations 26 are arranged on the side surface of the flat tube 21 connected to the photovoltaic laminate 1, and the flat tube 21 is bonded to the photovoltaic laminate 1.

[0048] To further optimize the above technical solution, the flat tube 21 and the photovoltaic laminate 1 are bonded through a thermal conductive adhesive 4, and the thermal conductive adhesive 4 is a hot melt adhesive or a structural adhesive or a silicone adhesive.

[0049] To further optimize the above technical solution, the arrangement spacing between multiple flat tubes 21 is less than 6 mm.

[0050] To further optimize the above technical solution, a plurality of partition plates are arranged in the inner cavity of the flat tube 21, and a flow channel 23 is formed between two adjacent partition plates.

[0051] To further optimize the above technical solution, the photovoltaic laminate 1 includes: a front plate 11, a front encapsulation layer 12, a battery cell 13, a rear encapsulation layer 14, and a rear plate 15; the front plate 11, the front encapsulation layer 12, the battery cell 13, the rear encapsulation layer 14, and the rear plate 15 are stacked layer by layer from top to bottom.

[0052] In this specification, the various embodiments are described in a progressive manner. Each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. For the same or similar parts among the various embodiments, reference can be made to each other. For the devices disclosed in the embodiments, since they correspond to the methods disclosed in the embodiments, the description is relatively simple, and reference can be made to the description in the method part for related parts.

[0053] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be obvious to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but will be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
