[0028] Embodiment one
[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 And Figure 2 , Figure 1 is a top view structural schematic diagram of a solder strip in a solar cell string provided by an embodiment of the present application; Figure 2 is a structural schematic diagram of a specific solar cell string provided by an embodiment of the present application.
[0030] See Figure 1 And Figure 2 In the embodiment of the present application, the solar cell string comprises a cell sheet 1 and a solder strip 3; the solder strip 3 is arranged on the surface of the cell sheet 1, the solder strip 3 has a first surface facing away from the cell sheet 1, and a second surface located outside the first surface; the solder strip 3 is provided with a hollow part 4, the hollow part 4 has a first opening located on the first surface, and a second opening located on the second surface; the second opening and the surface of the cell sheet 1 have an overflow space; the hollow part 4 is filled with fixing glue, the fixing glue comprises a filling part 5 located in the hollow part 4 and an overflow part 6 overflowed from the second opening to the overflow space and solidified, and the filling part 5 and the overflow part 6 are integrated structures.
[0031] The specific structure of the cell sheet 1 can refer to the prior art, which will not be described here again. In the present embodiment, the surface of the cell sheet 1 has at least a sub-grid. In the present embodiment, the solder strip 3 is arranged on the surface of the cell sheet 1 and fixedly connected with the surface of the cell sheet 1. Since the solder strip 3 is arranged on the surface of the cell sheet 1, in the present embodiment, the solder strip 3 has a surface directly contacting the cell sheet 1 and a surface not directly contacting the cell sheet 1, wherein the surface of the solder strip 3 directly contacting the cell sheet 1 is equivalent to being covered and shielded by the cell sheet 1, and the surface of the solder strip 3 not directly contacting the cell sheet 1 is a surface of the solder strip 3 which is not directly covered and shielded by the cell sheet 1. In the present embodiment, the solder strip 3 has a first surface facing away from the cell sheet 1, and a second surface located outside the first surface, and the second surface needs to have an area not covered by the cell sheet 1. Taking a rectangular solder strip 3 as an example, generally, its bottom surface is the surface of the solder strip 3 directly contacting the cell sheet 1, its top surface is the first surface of the solder strip 3 facing away from the cell sheet 1, and its side surface is the above-mentioned second surface.
[0032] In the present embodiment, the solder strip 3 is provided with a hollow part 4, which has a first opening on the first surface and a second opening on the second surface. In the present embodiment, the second opening is usually located in the area of the second surface that is not covered by the battery sheet 1, so that an overflow space is formed between the second opening and the surface of the battery sheet 1, and the overflow part 6 formed by the fixing glue is arranged in the overflow space and fixedly connected with the surface of the battery sheet.
[0033] In the present embodiment, the solder strip 3 is fixedly connected with the grid line 2 by dispensing glue in the hollow part 4. The first opening of the solder strip 3 is usually the glue injection port, and the second opening is usually the glue overflow port. Since the solder strip 3 is in a strip shape, in order to ensure that the solder strip 3 can be firmly connected with the battery sheet 1 everywhere, the solder strip 3 is usually provided with a plurality of hollow parts 4, and the plurality of hollow parts 4 are arranged along the axis of the long axis of the solder strip 3 to ensure that the solder strip 3 is fixedly connected with the battery sheet 1 everywhere.
[0034] In the present embodiment, the hollow part 4 is filled with fixing glue. Since the first opening is used for glue injection and the second opening is used for glue overflow, the fixing glue is usually injected into the hollow part 4 from the first opening by the dispensing process, and part of the fixing glue will overflow from the second opening. The fixing glue is in a flowing state after the dispensing process starts, and is in a solid state after solidification. Due to the arrangement of the second opening, part of the fixing glue will overflow from the second opening to the battery sheet 1 after the dispensing process starts, and the overflow part 6 is formed after the overflowed part solidifies. The filling part 5 is formed after the fixing glue in the hollow part 4 solidifies. Therefore, the filling part 5 and the overflow part 6 are both structures formed after the fixing glue solidifies, and are integrated structures. The filling part 5 is located in the hollow part 4, and the overflow part 6 usually fills the overflow space between the solder strip 3 and the battery sheet 1, that is, the overflow part 6 can cover the surface of the battery sheet 1 and wrap the bottom of the solder strip 3. The overflow part 6 connects the battery sheet 1 and the filling part 5 from the second opening, so that the solder strip 3 and the battery sheet 1 can be connected by the fixing glue, and the fixing glue is at least partially hidden in the hollow part 4 to avoid forming a mountain-shaped protrusion.
[0035] Further, in order to facilitate the formation of the overflow part, the second opening is generally arranged towards the cell sheet 1 in the present embodiment. In order to facilitate the formation of the structure, the surface of the solder strip 3 towards the side of the cell sheet 1 in the present embodiment comprises an arc surface section, which can have a surface arranged towards the cell sheet 1 but not in direct contact with the cell sheet 1, i.e. a gap is left between the cell sheet 1 and the solder strip 3 as the overflow space. The second opening is arranged on the arc surface section at this time, thereby forming the second opening pointing towards the cell sheet 1. Specifically, the solder strip 3 in the present embodiment can be a circular solder strip 3 to have the arc surface section. Of course, other structures of the solder strip 3 can also be used in the present embodiment, such as a solder strip 3 with a rectangular cross section with rounded corners, and the second opening can be arranged at the rounded corner at this time, etc., which is not specifically limited herein.
[0036] Specifically, the top surface of the filling part 5 can be flush with the first opening in the present embodiment. At this time, the fixing glue fills the entire hollow part 4, thereby achieving the largest possible increase in the contact area between the fixing glue and the solder strip 3 and ensuring the firm connection between the fixing glue and the solder strip 3.
[0037] Further, a support part is arranged in the hollow part 4 in the present embodiment, the support part is fixedly connected with the solder strip 3, and the surface of the support part in the hollow part 4 is covered by the fixing glue. The support part is arranged in the hollow part 4 and needs to be fixedly connected with the solder strip 3. Therefore, the fixing glue can be in contact with the surface of the support part in addition to the inner wall of the hollow part 4, thereby increasing the contact area between the fixing glue and the solder strip 3 and further ensuring the firm connection between the fixing glue and the solder strip 3. The specific number of support parts in one hollow part 4 is not specifically limited in the present embodiment and is determined according to the specific circumstances. The setting of the support part can increase the contact area between the unit glue and the solder strip 3 and reduce the amount and cost of the solder strip 3 and the glue.
[0038] Specifically, the hollow part 4 in the present embodiment comprises at least one main path and at least two branch paths, the main path extends from the first opening to the inside of the solder strip 3, and the branch paths extend from the main path to the second surface to form at least two second openings. The structure between the two branch paths can be the support part. In the dispensing process, the fixing glue is injected into the hollow part 4 of the solder strip 3 along the main path from the first opening, the fixing glue is in contact with the surface of the support part between the branch paths before solidification to form the overflow part 6 on the surface of the cell sheet 1, and the fixing glue is also fixedly connected with the support part.
[0039] In order to ensure that the solder strip 3 is stressed uniformly under the action of the fixing glue in the embodiment, a plurality of second openings can be arranged symmetrically based on the long axis of the solder strip 3 in the short axis direction of the solder strip 3. Taking an example of one hollow part 4 having two branches, the two branches can be arranged symmetrically left and right based on the long axis of the solder strip 3 to ensure that the stresses on the left and right sides of the solder strip 3 are uniform. When more branches are arranged, the plurality of branches can be divided into two groups each arranged symmetrically left and right based on the long axis of the solder strip 3, and the specific structure can be set according to actual conditions, which is not limited here.
[0040] The fixing glue used in the embodiment can be light-curing glue or heat-curing glue, and the process of curing the fixing glue can include irradiation with ultraviolet rays or heating for curing, which is not limited here. In the embodiment, the solder strip 3 is first welded on the surface of the battery piece 1, and then the fixing glue is applied at the hollow position of the solder strip 3 to form the above structure.
[0041] It should be noted that when the battery piece 1 has a main grid, the solder strip 3 is usually arranged along the main grid, so the overflow part 6 is fixedly connected to the grid line 2 as the main grid. When the battery piece 1 is a battery piece without a main grid and only has a secondary grid, the solder strip 3 is usually arranged along the direction perpendicular to the secondary grid. At this time, the overflow part 6 can be fixedly connected to the grid line 2 as the secondary grid, forming a structure as shown in Figure 2 The overflow part 6 can also be arranged between adjacent secondary grids, and the structure formed at this time can be compared with Figure 2 The overflow part 6 can be fixedly connected to the surface of the battery piece 1 which is not covered by the grid line 2.
[0042] The solar cell string provided by the embodiment of the utility model can avoid the risk of hidden cracking of the battery piece 1 caused by the protruding fixing glue after dispensing by arranging the hollow part 4 in the solder strip 3 to accommodate the fixing glue. The second opening is arranged to form an integrated overflow part 6 and a filling part 5 during dispensing, wherein the overflow part 6 is in full contact with the battery piece, and the filling part 5 is tightly connected with the solder strip 3 inside the hollow part 4 to ensure the firmness of the solder strip 3.
