Its main function is to connect and protect solar photovoltaic modules, connect the power generated by solar cells to external lines, and conduct the current generated by photovoltaic modules.

[0003] An existing patent discloses a photovoltaic module junction box, and the patent authorization number CN210927558U includes a junction box shell and a device assembly strip; the device assembly strip includes a plurality of assembly modules, each assembly module is fixed in a card slot on the surface of the junction box shell; the assembly module includes a spacer plate docked with the card slot and an assembly board for assembling the device, and a sealing groove is formed between the spacer plate and the assembly board; the spacer plate is buckled on the card slot of the junction box shell, and the spacer plate is provided with through holes for wiring and gluing; the assembly board assembles electronic devices on the outside of the sealing groove, and the assembly board is provided with assembly holes for assembling the electronic devices, and the assembly board is also provided with glue filling holes, which solves the problem of reduced heat dissipation performance of the devices inside the junction box.

[0004] However, in patent authorization number CN210927558U, the assembly board assembles electronic devices on the outside of the sealing groove, and assembly holes for assembling electronic devices are provided on the assembly board. The pins of the electronic devices extend into the sealing groove through the assembly holes, and the pins extend into the sealing groove by at least 2 mm. The assembly board is also provided with glue filling holes, and the glue filling holes are used to fill glue into the sealing groove when the electrical devices are subsequently replaced. In this way, the electronic devices are arranged in the space outside the sealing groove, avoiding the reduction of the heat dissipation performance of the electronic devices due to the sealing glue. Due to the lack of effective heat dissipation structure on the junction box shell, the heat dissipation efficiency of the electronic devices installed therein is low. Therefore, we propose a photovoltaic module junction box with improved heat dissipation efficiency to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a photovoltaic module junction box with improved heat dissipation efficiency, which can greatly improve the heat exchange area through the heat sinks arranged in a continuous S-shaped structure on the inner side of the heat dissipation shell, and accelerate the dissipation of heat by utilizing the air ducts arranged between the heat sinks, and accelerate the flow of air inside the junction box body through the heat dissipation hole shell, thereby effectively improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the junction box body.

[0006] To solve the above problems, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present utility model are as follows:
