Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of photovoltaic module technology, and particularly to a high-efficiency photovoltaic module. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, photovoltaic modules have busbars and cells arranged in parallel, with a spacing of three to ten millimeters between them. This increases the module area, requiring more materials and raising costs. Furthermore, the increased module area also reduces the photovoltaic module's power generation efficiency (module conversion efficiency = module power divided by module area). Therefore, a high-efficiency photovoltaic module is needed. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem that existing technologies inadvertently reduce the power generation efficiency of photovoltaic modules.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model addresses the aforementioned problem by proposing a high-efficiency photovoltaic module, comprising battery strings 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12, formed by welding multiple battery cells together with multiple solder strips. Battery strings 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 form one row, which is opposite to the row formed by battery strings 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12, with a spacing of 0mm-4mm between them. A busbar 1 is welded to one side of battery strings 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11; a busbar 2 is welded between battery strings 1 and 7; a busbar 2 is welded between battery strings 6 and 7; a busbar 3 is welded between battery strings 2 and 8; and a busbar 3 is welded between battery strings 4 and 10.
[0005] Preferably, the busbar is divided into two ends. One end of the busbar is located in the middle of the back of the first battery string, and the busbar is welded to the solder strip on the surface of the battery cell. The other end is located in the middle of the front of the second battery string, and the busbar is welded to the solder strip on the front surface of the battery cell. The busbars 1 of the first, third, fifth, seventh, ninth and eleventh battery strings are all of the same type. Therefore, the arrangement of the busbars 1 in the third, fifth, seventh, ninth and eleventh battery strings is the same as that of the busbar 1 in the first battery string, thereby realizing the series welding of two adjacent battery strings.
[0006] Preferably, half of the width of busbar 2 is welded to the solder strip on the front surface of the end cell of battery string 1, and the other half is welded to the solder strip on the front surface of the cell of battery string 7. One end of the busbar in the length direction is bent and extended outside the module, eventually connecting to an external junction box, thus achieving parallel welding of battery strings 1 and 7. Similarly, half of the width of busbar 2 is welded to the solder strip on the front surface of the end cell of battery string 6, and the other half is welded to the solder strip on the front surface of the cell of battery string 12. One end of the busbar in the length direction is bent and extended outside the module, eventually connecting to an external junction box, thus achieving parallel welding of battery strings 1 and 7.
[0007] Preferably, the busbar is divided into two ends. One end of the busbar is located on the back of battery string 2 and battery string 8, and the other end is located on the front of battery string 3 and battery string 9. The busbar is welded together with battery string 2, battery string 8, battery string 3 and battery string 9. The busbar 3 welded between battery string 2 and battery string 8 is the same type of component as the busbar 3 welded between battery string 4 and battery string 10. Therefore, the arrangement of the busbar 3 welded between battery string 4 and battery string 10 is the same as the arrangement of the busbar 3 welded between battery string 2 and battery string 8.
[0008] Beneficial effects: 1. By designing the busbars at both ends of the module to be located in the middle of the solar cells, the distance that the current at both ends of a single solar cell is transmitted to the busbar is shortened, reducing the power loss caused by transmission and effectively improving the output power of the module.
[0009] 2. The busbars of the module are all located on the front or back of the solar cells and overlap with the solar cells. This reduces the area occupied by the busbars and the area occupied by the busbars to the solar cells, ultimately reducing the amount of material used in module production and improving the module's conversion efficiency.

[0013] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0014] Reference Figures 1 to 2 A high-efficiency photovoltaic module includes a series of battery strings 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12, formed by welding multiple solar cells together with multiple solder strips. Strings 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 are arranged in a row with strings 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11. A row of battery strings 1 and 12 is arranged opposite each other with a spacing of 0mm-4mm. One side of battery strings 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 and 11 has a busbar 1 01 welded on it. A busbar 2 02 is welded between battery strings 1 and 7. A busbar 2 02 is welded between battery strings 6 and 7. A busbar 3 03 is welded between battery strings 2 and 8. A busbar 3 03 is welded between battery strings 4 and 10.
[0015] Preferably, the busbar 01 is divided into two ends. One end of the busbar 01 is located in the middle of the back of the battery string 1, and the busbar 01 is welded to the solder strip on the surface of the battery cell. The other end is located in the middle of the front of the battery string 2, and the busbar 01 is welded to the solder strip on the front surface of the battery cell, thus realizing the series welding of two adjacent battery strings. The busbars 01 of battery string 1, battery string 3, battery string 5, battery string 7, battery string 9, and battery string 11 are all homogeneous components. Therefore, the configuration of the busbars 01 in battery string 3, battery string 5, battery string 7, battery string 9, and battery string 11 is also consistent with the configuration of the busbar 01 in battery string 11.
[0016] Preferably, half of the width of busbar 202 is welded to the solder strip on the front surface of the end cell of battery string 1, and the other half is welded to the solder strip on the front surface of the cell of battery string 7, achieving parallel welding of battery string 1 and battery string 7. One end of busbar 202 in the length direction is bent and led out of the module, eventually connecting to an external junction box. Similarly, half of the width of another busbar 202 is welded to the solder strip on the front surface of the end cell of battery string 6, and the other half is welded to the solder strip on the front surface of the cell of battery string 12, achieving parallel welding of battery string 6 and battery string 12. One end of busbar 202 in the length direction is bent and led out of the module, eventually connecting to an external junction box.
[0017] Preferably, the busbar 303 is divided into two ends. One end of the busbar 303 is located on the back of battery string 2 and battery string 8, and the other end is located on the front of battery string 3 and battery string 9. The busbar 303 is welded together with battery string 2, battery string 8, battery string 3, and battery string 9. The busbar 303 welded between battery string 2 and battery string 8 is the same type of component as the busbar 303 welded between battery string 4 and battery string 10. Therefore, the arrangement of the busbar 303 welded between battery string 4 and battery string 10 is the same as the arrangement of the busbar 303 welded between battery string 2 and battery string 8.
[0018] In specific implementation, one end of busbar 01 is located in the middle of the back of battery string 1, and the busbar is welded to the solder strip on the surface of the battery cell; the other end is located in the middle of the front of battery string 2, and the busbar is welded to the solder strip on the front surface of the battery cell. This achieves series welding of two adjacent battery strings. Other busbars 01 are also welded to adjacent battery strings in series according to the above scheme.
[0019] In practice, busbar 202 is located in the middle of the module and is mainly used for parallel welding of the upper and lower battery strings. The distance between the upper and lower battery strings 1 and 7 is 0~4mm. Half of the width of busbar 202 is welded to the welding strip on the front surface of the end cell of battery string 1, and the other half of the width is welded to the welding strip on the front surface of the cell of battery string 7, so as to realize the parallel welding of battery string 1 and battery string 7. One end of the length of busbar 202 is bent out of the module and finally connected to the external junction box.
[0020] In practice, one end of busbar 202 is bent to a height of 150-250 micrometers, and this end is positioned at the center of the front of cell strings 1 and 7. The busbar is then welded to the solder strip on the surface of the cell. The other end extends out from the gap between cell strings 1 and 2 and is bent upwards to a height of 150-250 micrometers. This bent portion is subsequently used for internal and external wiring of the photovoltaic module.
[0021] In practice, busbar 303 is positioned in the center of the module, and its welding to battery strings 2 and 8 is the same as that of busbar 202. After being bent in the middle, busbar 303 is welded to battery strings 3 and 9. One end is bent at a 90-degree angle and then passes through the gap between battery strings 4 and 10, serving as an electrode of the module. The other end is welded to battery strings 2 and 8, and then bent at a 90-degree angle to serve as an electrode. The 90-degree bend height at both ends is 150 micrometers to 250 micrometers.
[0022] In practice, after the busbars and battery strings are welded together, EVA is laid, backsheet is laid, laminated, framed, and junction boxes are installed to complete the assembly.
[0023] Working principle: By designing the busbars at both ends of the module in the middle of the solar cells, the distance that the current from both ends of a single solar cell is transmitted to the busbars is shortened, reducing the power loss caused by transmission and effectively improving the output power of the module.
[0024] Meanwhile, the busbars in the module are all set on the front or back of the solar cells, allowing the busbars to overlap with the solar cells. This reduces the area occupied by the busbars and the area occupied by the busbars to the solar cells, ultimately reducing the amount of material used in module production and improving module conversion efficiency.
[0025] The current mainstream module size in the industry is 2279*1134mm, but this technology can reduce the module size to 2249*1134mm. Due to the reduction in module area, the material cost per module is reduced by 3.2264 yuan, and the module power is 550W. The module efficiency also increases from 21.28% to 21.57% due to the smaller module size. This reduction in module size can also reduce land costs, support structure costs, maintenance costs, and other expenses associated with building a power plant of the same scale.
