[0036] The first moisture absorbing accessory 160 forms waterproof protection at the periphery of the battery module 130, whether in actual photovoltaic power generation or in humid heat reliability test, the first moisture absorbing accessory 160 can prevent the moisture in the environment from invading the battery module 130 from the edge of the photovoltaic module 100.
[0037] In the embodiment, the first moisture absorbing accessory 160 is strip-shaped, and actually, the number thereof is multiple, the multiple first moisture absorbing accessories 160 are connected end to end and arranged in a ring at the periphery of the battery module 130, forming circumferential surrounding of the battery module 130.
[0038] In actual application, no matter in which direction of the periphery of the photovoltaic module 100 water invades, there is corresponding first moisture absorbing accessory 160 to absorb the invading water, so as to avoid the water from entering the battery module 130 and reacting with the first adhesive layer 120 or the second adhesive layer 140 to produce acetic acid and damage the battery module 130.
[0039] The first moisture absorbing accessory 160 can contain calcium sulfate, calcium oxide, calcium chloride, magnesium sulfate and other substances with water absorption capacity, and can be one or a mixture of multiple.
[0040] As preferred, the first absorbing member 160 in the embodiment is calcium sulfate, arranged in solid strip on the periphery of the battery assembly 130. Calcium sulfate is neutral after absorbing water, and does not react with other substances, so that the photovoltaic assembly 100 maintains a stable state.
[0041] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 2 Fig. 2 shows a structural schematic diagram of the battery assembly 130 and the first absorbing member 160 arranged on the first adhesive layer 120, Figure 3 Fig. 3 shows an enlarged schematic diagram of area A in Fig. 2. Figure 2
[0042] In order to avoid the influence of the first absorbing member 160 on the performance of the photovoltaic assembly 100, in the embodiment, the first absorbing member 160 is arranged spaced apart from the battery assembly 130, in other words, the annular structure composed of the plurality of first absorbing members 160 is circumferentially spaced apart to surround the battery assembly 130.
[0043] In order to avoid affecting the lamination quality, in the embodiment, in the stacking direction of the photovoltaic assembly 100, the opposite sides of the first absorbing member 160 are flush with the opposite sides of the battery assembly 130. In fact, the thickness of the first absorbing member 160 is substantially the same as the thickness of the battery assembly 130.
[0044] In addition, in the embodiment, the battery assembly 130 is rectangular, and considering that the length dimension of the battery assembly 130 is greater than the width dimension, the probability of absorbing water is greater, and stronger protection effect is needed, therefore, in the embodiment, compared with the first absorbing member 160 on the outside of the width side of the battery assembly 130, the width of the first absorbing member 160 on the outside of the length side of the battery assembly 130 is greater.
[0045] As preferred, in the embodiment, the width of the first absorbing member 160 on the outside of the width side of the battery assembly is 1.96mm, and the width of the first absorbing member 160 on the outside of the length side of the battery assembly is 3mm.
[0046] In fact, the photovoltaic assembly 100 also includes a frame 180 and a junction box (not shown in the figure) and other structures, and the frame 180 is annularly arranged on the periphery of the laminated assembly composed of the glass plate 110, the first adhesive layer 120, the battery assembly 130, the second adhesive layer 140 and the back plate 150.
[0047] It can be understood that, in actual application, the frame 180 is assembled after the lamination assembly and lamination process, in order to avoid the first absorbing member 160 being damaged in the process of assembling the frame 180, the first absorbing member 160 needs to reserve a certain width of the gap between the edge of the glass plate 110 when arranging, so that the first absorbing member 160 is spaced apart from the frame 180 after the frame 180 is assembled.
[0048] In the embodiment, the battery assembly 130 includes a plurality of battery strings 131 arranged in sequence and spaced apart, and the plurality of battery strings 131 are arranged side by side, and a string gap 132 is formed between any two adjacent battery strings 131. The photovoltaic assembly 100 provided in the embodiment is further provided with a second absorbing member 170 for absorbing moisture and acetic acid in each string gap 132.
[0049] Specifically, in the embodiment, the battery assembly 130 uses 54 battery pieces, each battery piece is cut into a half piece, and then is series-welded, the half piece is defined as a battery unit piece, and a version of 108 battery unit pieces in 6 columns and 18 rows is formed by series-welding. The 18 battery unit pieces in the same column form a battery string 131, and there are 6 battery strings 131 in total, and 5 string gaps 132 are formed.
[0050] The second absorbing member 170 is also in the form of a long strip, and the number of the second absorbing member 170 in the embodiment is multiple, and a plurality of second absorbing members 170 are arranged in sequence along the length direction in any string gap 132, and the extension direction of each second absorbing member 170 is the same as the extension direction of the string gap 132.
[0051] The plurality of battery unit pieces of the two adjacent battery strings 131 are aligned on both sides of the corresponding string gap 132, and in order to achieve reliable protection effect inside the battery assembly 130, the second absorbing member 170 is arranged between any two aligned battery unit pieces in the embodiment.
[0052] Specifically, in the embodiment, the length of each second absorbing member 170 is about 91.95 mm, the number of the second absorbing members 170 in each string gap 132 is 18, and the total number of the second absorbing members 170 is 90.
[0053] Similarly, the second absorbing member 170 can contain calcium sulfate, calcium oxide, calcium chloride, magnesium sulfate and the like. As preferred, the second absorbing member 170 in the embodiment is a mixture of calcium sulfate and calcium oxide, and is arranged in the form of a solid strip in the string gap 132.
[0054] In actual application, if there is some invading water entering the inside of the battery assembly 130 through the first absorbing member 160, the second absorbing member 170 can absorb the water. If there is some water not absorbed in time reacting with the first adhesive layer 120 or the second adhesive layer 140 to produce a small amount of acetic acid, the calcium oxide in the second absorbing member 170 reacts with the acetic acid to absorb the acetic acid, avoiding the corrosion of the battery assembly 130 by the acetic acid. The water produced in the reaction is absorbed in the second absorbing member 170, preventing further hydrolysis of the first adhesive layer 120 or the second adhesive layer 140. Moreover, no gas is produced in the reaction process, which does not affect the stability of the photovoltaic module 100.
[0055] Similarly, in order to avoid the second absorbing member 170 affecting the performance of the photovoltaic module 100, in the embodiment, the second absorbing member 170 is arranged to be spaced apart from the battery string 131. More desirably, the width of the second absorbing member 170 accounts for one fifth to four fifths of the width of the inter-string gap 132. As a preferred, in the embodiment, the width of the second absorbing member 170 accounts for about one third of the width of the inter-string gap 132.
[0056] As a preferred, in the embodiment, the width of the inter-string gap 132 is about 1.74 mm, and the width of the second absorbing member 170 is about 0.6 mm.
[0057] Similarly, in order to avoid affecting the lamination quality, in the stacking direction, the opposite sides of the second absorbing member 170 are also flush with the opposite sides of the battery assembly 130, and are also substantially flush. In the embodiment, the thickness of the battery cell sheet, the first absorbing member 160 and the second absorbing member 170 is about 0.15 mm.
[0058] Moreover, in order to further improve the protection effect of the second absorbing member 170, the two ends of the battery string 131 in the length direction are flush with the two second absorbing members 170 respectively. In other words, in any inter-string gap 132, the two ends of the two second absorbing members 170 facing away from each other are flush with the two ends of the inter-string gap 132.
[0059] The photovoltaic module 100 provided by the embodiment, in the actual assembly process, the glass plate 110 is placed with the rough surface upward, the first adhesive layer 120 is laid flat on the glass plate 110, the light surface of the first adhesive layer 120 faces the glass plate 110, the first adhesive layer 120 is EVA or POE, and the periphery of the first adhesive layer 120 exceeds the periphery of the glass plate 110 by more than 5 mm. Then the positioning template is arranged on the first adhesive layer 120, the multiple battery strings 131 completed with string welding are placed on the first adhesive layer 120 with the positioning template aligned, and the anti-reflective film surface of the battery string 131 faces downward.
[0060] After the battery string 131 is placed in position, the busbar is welded, and the first suction accessory 160 and the second suction accessory 170 are arranged on the first adhesive layer 120, that is, a plurality of first suction accessories 160 are arranged along the periphery of the battery assembly 130 to form a ring structure that circumferentially surrounds the battery assembly 130, and a plurality of second suction accessories 170 are arranged in the inter-string gap 132 in sequence. After the arrangement of the first suction accessory 160 and the second suction accessory 170 is completed, the second adhesive layer 140 is laid on the upper surface of the battery assembly 130 with the nap facing downward. Finally, the back plate 150 is laid on the second adhesive layer 140, and subsequent steps such as lamination, EL testing, and frame mounting are performed.
[0061] It should be noted that in another embodiment, the first suction accessory 160 can be a one-piece structure, that is, a one-piece ring structure, which is arranged as a whole on the periphery of the battery assembly 130. The second suction accessory 170 arranged in each inter-string gap 132 can also be a one-piece structure, that is, one second suction accessory 170 is arranged in one inter-string gap 132, and the suction accessory extends from one end of the inter-string gap 132 to the other end.
[0062] Through testing, the reliability DH1000 attenuation of the photovoltaic module 100 provided in the embodiment is reduced from the benchmark of 2.41% to 1.54%, which is reduced by 0.87%; the HF10 attenuation is reduced from the benchmark of 1.53% to 0.92%, which is reduced by 0.61%.
