[0002] At present, photovoltaic cell technology is being updated at an increasingly rapid pace, and the market's requirements for photovoltaic cell performance are becoming increasingly stringent. At the same time, manufacturing costs are also decreasing year by year. At present, the busbar-less photovoltaic panel battery process technology has become the main focus of photovoltaic researchers. The difference between this battery and the traditional battery is that: the busbar-less photovoltaic panel battery only has secondary grids laid on the front and back surfaces. Its busbar-less design leaves only (or no) a few reserved points for welding. Since the silver paste used for printing the grid lines accounts for 30% to 40% of the total battery manufacturing cost, and the silver paste for printing the busbar accounts for a large proportion of the silver paste consumption, if the busbar design is removed, the silver paste cost will be reduced by 40% to 60%. Therefore, the busbar-less photovoltaic panel battery manufacturing technology conforms to the trend of technological change, and battery string welding is one of the difficulties.

[0003] In order to string together independent battery cells to form a battery pack, the traditional method is to lay a soldering ribbon soaked in flux on the main grid on the surface of the battery, and then use high temperature to melt the soldering ribbon to weld the soldering ribbon to the battery cell. However, there are no main grid lines on the surface of the busbarless battery, so the welding process cannot be carried out.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a busbar-free low-temperature interconnected cell assembly and a busbar-free photovoltaic panel. Utility Model Content
