[0095] As shown in Figures 10 and 11 , in the photovoltaic module disclosed in the embodiments of the present application, a first gap 23 is provided between at least a portion of the bonding layer 22 and the solar cell 10 in the second region 81, and the bonding layer 22 is not filled in the first gap 23. In other words, the bonding layer 22 does not completely cover the surface of the connecting wire substrate 21, thereby reducing the amount of bonding layer 22 material used and saving the production cost of the photovoltaic module.

[0096] Furthermore, since the projection of the second region 81 on the cell 10 is between two adjacent fine grid lines 11, the bonding layer 22 in the second region 81 is not connected to the fine grid lines 11. Therefore, the absence of the bonding layer 22 on the surface of the portion of the connecting wire substrate 21 in this region will not affect the current collection on the surface of the cell 10.

[0097] Optionally, as shown in FIG. 1 , the photovoltaic module further includes a fixing layer 30 , which is disposed on a side of the connecting wire 20 away from the solar cell 10 , and is used to fix the connecting wire 20 to the surface of the solar cell 10 .

[0098] As shown in Figure 1, the photovoltaic module disclosed in the embodiment of the present application further includes a fixing layer 30. In the embodiment of the present application, the fixing layer 30 is disposed on the side of the connecting wire 20 away from the cell 10, so that the connecting wire 20 is fixed to the surface of the cell 10 via the fixing layer 30. Compared to spot welding the connecting wire 20 to the surface of the cell 10, the method of fixing the connecting wire 20 to the surface of the cell 10 via the fixing layer 30 in the present application is more efficient and less costly.

[0099] Specifically, during the processing of a photovoltaic module, multiple connecting wires 20 can be arranged at intervals on the surface of a cell 10, and then a fixing layer 30 can be disposed on the side of the connecting wires 20 away from the cell 10. The fixing layer 30 is then thermally or photocured so that the fixing layer 30 is at least partially bonded to the surface of the cell 10, thereby securing the connecting wires 20 to the surface of the cell 10 via the fixing layer 30. Finally, the photovoltaic module is laminated to electrically connect the bonding layer 22 and / or the connecting wire matrix 21 to the cell 10.

[0100] Optionally, as shown in FIG. 13 , along a direction perpendicular to the plane where the battery cell 10 is located, the fixing layer 30 has a first projection, and the first projection falls into the battery cell 10 .

[0101] As shown in FIG13 , the fixed layer 30 in the embodiment of the present application has a first projection along a direction perpendicular to the plane where the battery cell 10 is located, and the first projection falls into the battery cell 10. This is to avoid the area of ​​the fixed layer 30 being too large and extending beyond the edge of the battery cell 10. When the area of ​​the fixed layer 30 is too large and extends beyond the edge of the battery cell 10, if the extended portion is located between two adjacent battery strings, it may cause the battery cell 10 to shift, adversely affecting the electrical connection between the battery cells 10. If the extended portion is located between two adjacent battery cells 10, then during the lamination process of the photovoltaic module, the extended portion will cause a greater pulling force on the connecting wire 20 between the two adjacent battery cells 10, thereby affecting the extension length of the connecting wire 20 on the battery cell 10, resulting in poor current collection at the edge of the battery cell 10.

[0102] Optionally, as shown in Figure 3, the photovoltaic module also includes: a plurality of glue points 70 arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the connecting wire 20, the glue points 70 are arranged between the connecting wire 20 and the surface of the battery cell 10, and the glue points 70 are used to fix the connecting wire 20 to the surface of the battery cell 10.

[0103] As shown in FIG3 , the photovoltaic module in the embodiment of the present application is provided with glue points 70. The glue points 70 include a plurality of glue points 70, which are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the connecting wire 20, i.e., the second direction K. The connecting wire 20 is bonded to the surface of the cell 10 through the glue points 70. Compared to welding the connecting wire 20 to the surface of the cell 10 by spot welding, the method of bonding the connecting wire 20 to the surface of the cell 10 by glue points 70 in the present application is more efficient and less costly.

[0104] Specifically, during the processing of the photovoltaic module, the glue dots 70 can be first arranged at intervals along the second direction K on the surface of the cell 10, and then the connecting wires 20 can be provided on the surface of the cell 10, so that the connecting wires 20 are located on the side of the glue dots 70 away from the cell 10 and extend along the second direction K. The glue dots 70 are then thermally or light-cured, so that the connecting wires 20 can be bonded to the surface of the cell 10 through the glue dots 70. Finally, the photovoltaic module is laminated to electrically connect the bonding layer 22 and / or the connecting wire matrix 21 to the cell 10.

[0105] Optionally, the melting point of the bonding layer 22 is less than 165 degrees, and the bonding layer 22 includes at least one of a tin-lead-bismuth layer, a tin-bismuth-silver layer, or a tin-indium layer.

[0106] The bonding layer 22 in the embodiment of the present application is electrically conductive and has a melting point less than 165°C. During the photovoltaic module lamination process, the bonding layer 22 can be alloyed and interconnected with the fine grid lines 11. This electrically connects the bonding layer 22 to the fine grid lines 11, allowing the current collected by the fine grid lines 11 to be collected through the connecting wires 20.

[0107] It should be noted that the bonding layer 22 in the embodiments of the present application can be a tin-lead-bismuth layer, a tin-bismuth-silver layer, or a tin-indium layer. Of course, the bonding layer 22 can also be other conductive metal layers with a melting point less than 165 degrees. In the embodiments of the present application, there are no excessive restrictions on this. In actual use, technicians can set a suitable bonding layer 22 as needed.

[0108] Optionally, as shown in Figures 1 to 3, the photovoltaic module further includes: an adhesive layer 40 and a cover plate 50 or a back plate 60, wherein the adhesive layer 40 and the cover plate 50 or the back plate 60 are sequentially arranged on the side of the connecting line 20 away from the battery cell 10, so as to connect the cover plate 50 or the back plate 60 to the battery cell 10 through the adhesive layer 40.

[0109] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the photovoltaic module in the embodiment of the present application further includes an adhesive layer 40, a cover plate 50, and / or a back plate 60. The adhesive layer 40 is disposed on the side of the connecting wire 20 away from the solar cell 10, and the cover plate 50 or the back plate 60 is then bonded to the side of the adhesive layer 40 away from the connecting wire 20. Thus, the cover plate 50 or the back plate 60 is bonded to one side of the solar cell 10 via the adhesive layer 40, thereby securing and protecting the solar cell 10 via the cover plate 50 or the back plate 60.

[0110] Optionally, as shown in Figures 1 to 3, the battery cell 10 in the embodiment of the present application includes multiple battery cells 10, and the multiple battery cells 10 are arranged at intervals, and there is a second gap between two adjacent battery cells 10; along the direction perpendicular to the plane where the battery cells 10 are located, a glue layer 40 is provided in the second gap.

[0111] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the battery cells 10 in the embodiments of the present application typically include a plurality of battery cells 10, which are arranged in a first direction H or a second direction K, with a second gap between adjacent battery cells 10. An adhesive layer 40 is disposed in the second gap in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the battery cells 10. Furthermore, no fixing layer 30 is disposed in the second gap.

[0112] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, in the embodiment of the present application, only the adhesive layer 40 is provided in the second gap between two adjacent solar cells 10, without the fixing layer 30. This is to prevent the fixing layer 30 from exerting a large pulling force on the connecting wire 20 between the two adjacent solar cells 10 during the photovoltaic module lamination process, thereby reducing the extension length of the connecting wire 20 on the solar cell 10 and causing poor current collection at the edge of the solar cell 10.

[0113] Optionally, the fixing layer 30 is a single-layer structure, and the single-layer structure is an EVA layer.

[0114] In the embodiment of the present application, the fixing layer 30 can be set as a single layer structure, and the single layer structure is set as a pre-crosslinked EVA layer. The pre-crosslinked EVA layer has advantages such as low fluidity and low cost. Among them, EVA is also called ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.

[0115] Of course, the fixing layer 30 can also be configured as a multi-layer structure. For example, the fixing layer 30 can be configured as a double-layer structure, or the fixing layer 30 can be configured as a three-layer structure. In this regard, the embodiments of the present application do not impose too many restrictions. In actual use, technicians can configure it as needed.

[0116] Optionally, the fixing layer 30 is a double-layer structure including an EVA layer and a POE layer, wherein the EVA layer is arranged on a side of the fixing layer 30 close to the battery cell 10 , and the EVA layer is partially connected to the battery cell 10 .

[0117] It should be noted that pre-crosslinked EVA layers offer advantages such as low fluidity and low cost. EVA is also known as ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer. Pre-crosslinked POE layers offer excellent resistance to PID effects. POE comes in two types: a polymer of ethylene and butene, and a polymer of ethylene and octene.

[0118] In the embodiment of the present application, an EVA layer is disposed on the side of the fixing layer 30 close to the cell 10, and the connecting wire 20 is fixed to the surface of the cell 10 via the EVA layer to improve the reliability of the connection between the connecting wire 20 and the cell 10. The POE layer has good resistance to the PID effect. By disposing the POE layer on the side of the fixing layer 30 away from the cell 10, the photovoltaic module can improve its resistance to the PID effect.

[0119] As shown in Figure 7, in another embodiment of the present application, at least one main grid line 12 is further provided on the battery cell 10, and at least one main grid line 12 extends along a first direction H; along a direction perpendicular to the plane where the battery cell 10 is located, the projection of at least one main grid line 12 on the battery cell 10 is staggered with the projection of the connecting line 20 on the battery cell 10.

[0120] As shown in FIG7 , in another embodiment of the present application, at least one busbar 12 is further provided on the surface of the cell 10, and the at least one busbar 12 extends along a second direction K. Furthermore, along a direction perpendicular to the plane where the cell 10 is located, the projection of the at least one busbar 12 on the cell 10 and the projection of the connecting wire 20 on the cell 10 are staggered. This allows the at least one busbar 12 and the plurality of connecting wires 20 to be respectively connected to the plurality of fine grid lines 11, so that the current collected by the plurality of fine grid lines 11 is collected by the at least one busbar 12 and the plurality of connecting wires 20, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the cell 10.

[0121] Optionally, as shown in FIG7 , along a second direction K perpendicular to the first direction H, the battery cell 10 has a first side surface and a second side surface that are arranged opposite to each other; the main grid lines 12 include two, one main grid line 12 is arranged in an area of ​​the surface of the battery cell 10 close to the first side surface, and the other main grid line 12 is arranged in an area of ​​the surface of the battery cell 10 close to the second side surface. As shown in FIG7 , in an embodiment of the present application, two main grid lines 12 are arranged on the surface of the battery cell 10. One main grid line 12 is arranged in an area of ​​the surface of the battery cell 10 close to the first side surface, so as to collect the current at the area of ​​the surface of the battery cell 10 close to the first side surface through the main grid line 12. The other main grid line 12 is arranged in an area of ​​the surface of the battery cell 10 close to the second side surface, so as to collect the current at the area of ​​the surface of the battery cell 10 close to the second side surface through the main grid line 12.

[0122] Optionally, the length of the battery cell 10 is greater than or equal to 180 mm and less than or equal to 240 mm.

[0123] The length of the battery cell 10 in the embodiment of the present application is greater than or equal to 180 mm and less than or equal to 240 mm. Specifically, the length of the battery cell 10 can be 180 mm, 182 mm, 191.6 mm, 191.75 mm, 192, 210 mm, 220 mm, 230 mm, 240 mm, etc.

[0124] Exemplarily, the battery cell 10 may be a rectangular structure, and the specific dimensions of the rectangular structure battery cell 10 may include: (182±2)mm*(96±1)mm, (192±2)mm*(91±1)mm, (182±2)mm*(91±1)mm, (182±2)mm*(105±1)mm, etc.

[0125] Of course, in the embodiment of the present application, there is no limitation on the specific structure and size of the battery cell 10. Battery cells 10 of any structure and any size fall within the scope of protection of the present application. In actual use, technicians can select a suitable battery cell as the battery cell 10 as needed.

[0126] The present application discloses an embodiment of a photovoltaic module, comprising: a cell, the surface of which is provided with a plurality of fine grid lines arranged at intervals along a first direction; a connecting wire, the connecting wire being provided on the surface of the cell and intersecting the fine grid lines, the connecting wire comprising a connecting wire base and a bonding layer attached to the surface of the connecting wire base; wherein the photovoltaic module has a first region and a second region, both of which are located between the connecting wire base and the surface of the cell, the projection of the first region on the cell is on the fine grid lines, and the projection of the second region on the cell is between the fine grid lines; the filling ratio of the bonding layer in the first region is greater than the filling ratio of the bonding layer in the second region. The photovoltaic module in the embodiment of the present application has a first region and a second region, both of which are located between the connecting wire base and the surface of the cell, the projection of the first region on the cell is on the fine grid lines, and the projection of the second region on the cell is between the fine grid lines. In the embodiment of the present application, the filling ratio of the bonding layer in the first region is set to be greater than the filling ratio of the bonding layer in the second region. This allows the connecting wires to be better electrically connected to the fine grid lines, and the current at the fine grid lines is collected through the connecting wires, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell.

[0127] As shown in Figures 5 to 7, the photovoltaic module disclosed in the embodiment of the present application includes: a battery cell 10, a first surface 16 of the battery cell 10 is provided with a plurality of first fine grid lines 111 arranged at intervals along the first direction H, and a second surface 17 of the battery cell 10 is provided with a plurality of second fine grid lines 112 arranged at intervals along the first direction H; a third connecting line 26 and a fourth connecting line 27, the third connecting line 26 is provided on the first surface 16 of the battery cell 10 and intersects with the first fine grid lines 111, the fourth connecting line 27 is provided on the second surface 17 of the battery cell 10 and intersects with the second fine grid lines 112, the third connecting line 26 and the fourth connecting line 27 both include a connecting line base 21 and a bonding layer 22 attached to the surface of the connecting line base 21; wherein, the filling ratio of the bonding layer 22 between the connecting line base 21 of the third connecting line 26 and the first surface 16 is greater than the filling ratio of the bonding layer 22 between the connecting line base 21 of the fourth connecting line 27 and the second surface 17.

[0128] As shown in Figures 5 to 7, the battery cell 10 in the embodiment of the present application has a first surface 16 and a second surface 17. The first surface 16 is the light-receiving surface of the battery cell 10, that is, the side facing the sunlight. The second surface 17 is the backlight side of the battery cell 10, that is, the side facing away from the sunlight. Among them, a plurality of first fine grid lines 111 are arranged at intervals along the first direction H and extending along the second direction K on the first surface 16 of the battery cell 10. The current generated by the first surface 16 of the battery cell 10 is collected by the first fine grid lines 111. The second surface 17 of the battery cell 10 is also provided with a plurality of second fine grid lines 112 arranged at intervals along the first direction H and extending along the second direction K. The current generated by the second surface 17 of the battery cell 10 is collected by the second fine grid lines 112.

[0129] The photovoltaic assembly disclosed in the embodiment of the present application also includes a third connecting line 16 and a fourth connecting line 27. The third connecting line 26 is arranged on the first surface 16 of the battery cell 10 and intersects with the first fine grid line 111. Specifically, a plurality of third connecting lines 26 can be provided, and the plurality of third connecting lines 26 are arranged on the first surface 16 of the battery cell 10 at intervals along the second direction K, and the plurality of third connecting lines 26 all extend along the first direction H. The fourth connecting line 27 is provided on the second surface 17 of the battery cell 10 and intersects with the second fine grid line 112. Specifically, a plurality of fourth connecting lines 27 can also be provided, and the plurality of fourth connecting lines 27 are arranged on the second surface 17 of the battery cell 10 at intervals along the second direction K, and the plurality of fourth connecting lines 27 all extend along the first direction H.

[0130] The third connecting wire 26 and the fourth connecting wire 27 in the embodiment of the present application both include a connecting wire base 21 and a bonding layer 22 attached to the connecting wire base 21. Both the connecting wire base 21 and the bonding layer 22 are conductive. The connecting wire base 21 is usually a copper wire. For example, the connecting wire base 21 can be an oxygen-free copper wire. Of course, the connecting wire base 21 can also be other metal wires, such as aluminum wire, etc. In the embodiment of the present application, there are no excessive restrictions on the specific material of the connecting wire base 21. In actual use, technicians can select a suitable material as needed.

[0131] The bonding layer 22 may be a tin-lead-bismuth layer, a tin-bismuth-silver layer, or a tin-indium layer. Of course, the bonding layer 22 may also be any other conductive metal layer having a melting point less than 165 degrees Celsius. In the embodiments of the present application, there are no additional restrictions on the specific material of the bonding layer 22. In actual use, technicians can select an appropriate material as needed.

[0132] As shown in Figures 5 to 7, in the embodiment of the present application, the filling ratio of the bonding layer 22 between the bonding wire base 21 of the third bonding wire 26 and the first surface 16 of the cell 10 is greater than the filling ratio of the bonding layer 22 between the bonding wire base 21 of the fourth bonding wire 27 and the second surface 17 of the cell 10. In other words, the filling ratio of the bonding layer 22 between the light-receiving surface of the cell 10 and the corresponding bonding wire base 21 is greater than the filling ratio of the bonding layer 22 between the backlight surface of the cell 10 and the corresponding bonding wire base 21.

[0133] It should be noted that the filling ratio in the embodiment of the present application refers to the ratio of the volume of the bonding layer 22 material to the volume of the corresponding area, and the corresponding area refers to the area between the connecting wire substrate and the surface of the battery cell (including the fine grid), and its boundary generally includes the positive projection of the connecting wire substrate on the surface of the battery cell. For example, in the embodiment of the present application, the volume of the bonding layer 22 between the connecting wire substrate 21 of the third connecting wire 26 and the first surface 16 of the battery cell 10 can be set to account for more than 50% of the area between the connecting wire substrate 21 of the third connecting wire 26 and the first surface 16 of the battery cell 10. The volume of the bonding layer 22 between the connecting wire substrate 21 of the fourth connecting wire 27 and the second surface 17 of the battery cell 10 is set to account for less than 50% of the area between the connecting wire substrate 21 of the fourth connecting wire 27 and the second surface 17 of the battery cell 10.

[0134] As shown in FIG5 , the first surface 16 of the cell 10, i.e., the light-receiving surface of the cell 10, serves as the main power generation portion of the cell 10. A relatively complete bonding layer 22 is filled between the first surface 16 and the corresponding connecting wire substrate 21. The bonding layer 22 allows the corresponding connecting wire substrate 21 to be reliably connected to the first fine grid lines 111 on the first surface 16. This allows the third connecting wires 26 to be better electrically connected to the first fine grid lines 111, thereby converging the current collected by the first fine grid lines 111 and improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the cell 10.

[0135] As shown in Figures 6 and 7, the second surface 17 of the cell 10, i.e., the backlight surface of the cell 10, serves as the secondary power generation portion of the cell 10. A mottled bonding layer 22 is filled between the second surface 17 and the corresponding connecting wire substrate 21. Specifically, the bonding layer 22 and the corresponding areas of the second fine grid lines 112 can be arranged in a continuous structure, while the corresponding areas between the bonding layer 22 and the second fine grid lines 112 can be arranged in a mottled structure. This allows for a better electrical connection between the second fine grid lines 112 on the second surface 17 and the corresponding connecting wire substrate 21 while conserving material for the bonding layer 22.

[0136] Based on the above description, as shown in Figures 5 to 7 , in the embodiment of the present application, the filling ratio of the bonding layer 22 between the connecting wire base 21 of the third connecting wire 26 and the first surface 16 of the cell 10 is set to be greater than the filling ratio of the bonding layer 22 between the connecting wire base 21 of the fourth connecting wire 27 and the second surface 17 of the cell 10. This ensures the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the cell 10 while reducing the production cost of the photovoltaic module.

[0137] Optionally, the number of the first fine gate lines 111 on the first surface 16 is less than the number of the second fine gate lines 112 on the second surface 17 .

[0138] In the embodiment of the present application, a first fine grid line 111 is provided on the first surface 16 of the cell 10 to collect the current generated on the first surface 16 of the cell 10. A second fine grid line 112 is provided on the second surface 17 of the cell 10 to collect the current generated on the second surface 17 of the cell 10.

[0139] As shown in Figure 5, the space between the first surface 16 of the battery cell 10 and the connecting wire base 21 of the third connecting wire 26 is completely filled with the bonding layer 22, so that the bonding layer 22 at the position between the first fine grid lines 111 can directly contact the first surface 16 of the battery cell 10 to collect the current generated by the first surface 16 of the battery cell 10, thereby compensating for the problem of the small number of first fine grid lines 111 on the first surface 16 of the battery cell 10.

[0140] As shown in Figures 6 and 7, the area between the second surface 17 of the cell 10 and the connecting wire base 21 of the fourth connecting wire 27 is not completely filled with the bonding layer 22. Specifically, the areas corresponding to the bonding layer 22 of the fourth connecting wire 27 and the second fine grid lines 112 are arranged in a continuous structure, while the areas corresponding to the bonding layer 22 of the fourth connecting wire 27 and the second fine grid lines 112 are arranged in a mottled structure. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the number of second fine grid lines 112 is set to be greater than the number of first fine grid lines 111, so that the current generated on the second surface 17 of the cell 10 can be collected by a larger number of second fine grid lines 112, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the cell 10. Optionally, as shown in Figures 8 to 12, the photovoltaic module in the embodiment of the present application has a first area 80 and a second area 81, both of which are located between the connecting wire base 21 of the fourth connecting wire 27 and the second surface 17, the projection of the first area 80 on the battery cell 10 is on the second fine grid line 112, and the projection of the second area 81 on the battery cell 10 is between the second fine grid lines 112; the filling ratio of the bonding layer 22 at the first area 80 is greater than the filling ratio of the bonding layer 22 at the second area 81.

[0141] As shown in Figures 8 to 12, in the embodiment of the present application, the area between the connecting wire base 21 of the fourth connecting wire 27 and the second surface 17 of the battery cell 10 is referred to as the first area 80 and the second area 81. Specifically, the first area 80 runs through the second fine grid lines 112, that is, the projection of the first area 80 on the battery cell 10 is on the second fine grid lines 112. The second area 81 runs between the second fine grid lines 112, that is, the projection of the second area 81 on the battery cell 10 is between the second fine grid lines 112.

[0142] In the embodiment of the present application, the filling ratio of the bonding layer 22 in the first region 80 is set to be greater than the filling ratio of the bonding layer 22 in the second region 81. This allows the fourth connecting wire 27 to be better electrically connected to the second fine grid line 112, so that the current collected by the second fine grid line 112 is collected through the fourth connecting wire 27, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell 10.

[0143] Optionally, as shown in FIG8 and FIG10 , the cross-sections of the connecting wire base 21 of the third connecting wire 26 and the connecting wire base 21 of the fourth connecting wire 27 in the embodiment of the present application are both circular, and the diameters of the circles are the same.

[0144] As shown in Figures 8 and 10 , the third and fourth connecting wires 26 and 27 in the embodiment of the present application are both long strips, and the cross-sections of the third and fourth connecting wires 26 and 27 are both circular. Furthermore, in the embodiment of the present application, the cross-sectional diameter of the third and fourth connecting wires 26 is set to be the same as the cross-sectional diameter of the fourth connecting wires 27 to facilitate the processing of the photovoltaic module.

[0145] Optionally, as shown in FIG. 5 to FIG. 7 , the filling amount of the bonding layer 22 between the third connection line 26 and the first surface 16 is greater than the filling amount of the bonding layer 22 between the fourth connection line 27 and the second surface 17 .

[0146] As shown in FIG5 , a relatively complete bonding layer 22 is filled between the bonding wire base 21 of the third bonding wire 26 in the embodiment of the present application and the first surface 16 of the cell 10. As shown in FIG6 and FIG7 , a mottled bonding layer 22 is filled between the bonding wire base 21 of the fourth bonding wire 27 in the embodiment of the present application and the second surface 17 of the cell 10. It is understood that the amount of bonding layer 22 filled between the third bonding wire 26 and the first surface 16 is greater than the amount of bonding layer 22 filled between the fourth bonding wire 27 and the second surface 17. This ensures the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the cell 10 while reducing the production cost of the photovoltaic module.

[0147] It should be noted that the cell 10 in the embodiment of the present application can be a heterojunction cell, a Topcon cell, or a PERC cell. Of course, the cell 10 in the embodiment of the present application can also be any other type of cell. In the embodiment of the present application, there are no excessive restrictions on the specific type of cell 10. In actual use, technicians can select an appropriate cell 10 as needed.

[0148] Optionally, the cell 10 further includes a transparent conductive layer, which is disposed on the first surface 16 and the second surface 17 ; wherein the third connecting line 26 and / or the fourth connecting line 27 are electrically connected to the transparent conductive layer through the bonding layer 22 .

[0164] As shown in FIG19 , a second cell 14 is provided and placed on a side of the second connecting wire 25 away from the second fixing layer 32 .

The heating temperature of the second heating zone is set to be greater than or equal to 130 degrees and less than or equal to 160 degrees. After preheating, the bonding layer 22 on the first connecting wire 24 is partially bonded to the first battery cell 13 to achieve pre-bonding. Furthermore, through preheating, the first base glue layer 31 can be adhered to the surface of the first battery cell 13, so that the first connecting wire 24 can be fixed to the surface of the first battery cell 13.

[0189] For example, the first heating zone can be heated by a bottom plate, and the second heating zone can be heated by an infrared lamp. Of course, in the embodiment of the present application, there is no limitation on the specific heating method of the first heating zone and the second heating zone. In the actual production process, technicians can select an appropriate heating method as needed.

[0190] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, the heating temperature of the first heating zone can be set to 100 degrees, 105 degrees, 110 degrees, 115 degrees, 120 degrees, 125 degrees, 130 degrees, etc. The heating temperature of the second heating zone can be set to 130 degrees, 135 degrees, 140 degrees, 145 degrees, 150 degrees, 155 degrees, 160 degrees, etc. The above are only examples of the heating temperatures of the first heating zone and the second heating zone and are not intended to limit the present application. In actual production processes, technicians can set the heating temperatures of the first heating zone and the second heating zone as needed.

[0191] Optionally, after providing a sealing layer and sealing the heated stacked structure with the sealing layer, the method further comprises: laminating the photovoltaic modules, wherein the lamination temperature is greater than or equal to 100 degrees and less than or equal to 165 degrees.

[0192] In an embodiment of the present application, after providing a sealing layer and sealing the heated stacked structure with the sealing layer, the method further includes laminating photovoltaic modules, and setting the lamination temperature to be greater than or equal to 100 degrees Celsius and less than or equal to 165 degrees Celsius.

[0193] The process of laminating photovoltaic modules mainly involves bonding the cover plate 50 or the back plate 60 to the first fixing layer 31 through the adhesive layer 40, and bonding the cover plate 50 or the back plate 60 to the first battery cell 13 through the adhesive layer 40 and the first fixing layer 31 to fix and protect the first battery cell 13.

[0194] Furthermore, during the photovoltaic module lamination process, the first connecting wire 24 needs to be electrically connected to the first solar cell 13, and the lamination temperature is set to be greater than or equal to 100 degrees Celsius and less than or equal to 165 degrees Celsius. This allows the bonding layer 22 on the surface of the first connecting wire 24 to be melt-bonded to the first solar cell 13, thereby achieving electrical connection between the first connecting wire 24 and the first solar cell 13.

[0195] Optionally, the adhesive layer 40 is an EPE structure, and the EPE structure includes an EVA layer, a POE layer and an EVA layer stacked in sequence.

[0196] In this embodiment of the present application, the adhesive layer 40 is configured as an EPE structure. That is, the adhesive layer 40 includes a pre-crosslinked EVA layer, a pre-crosslinked POE layer, and a pre-crosslinked EVA layer stacked in sequence. The pre-crosslinked EVA layer has advantages such as low fluidity, low cost, and good adhesion.

[0197] Therefore, the cover plate 50 or the back plate 60 is bonded to the first fixing layer 31 through the adhesive layer 40, so that the cover plate 50 or the back plate 60 can be more firmly fixed to the surface of the first battery cell 13. Furthermore, the first connecting wire 24 can also be more firmly fixed to the surface of the first battery cell 13.

[0198] In addition, the POE layer has a good property of resisting the PID effect. By providing the POE layer in the adhesive layer 40 , the resistance of the photovoltaic module to the PID effect can be improved.

[0199] Optionally, the first fixing layer 31 includes an EVA layer, and the EVA layer is disposed on a side of the first fixing layer 31 close to the adhesive layer 40 .

[0200] The first fixing layer 31 in the embodiment of the present application can be a single-layer structure or a multi-layer structure. For example, the first fixing layer 31 can be set as a double-layer structure or a triple-layer structure. In this regard, the embodiment of the present application does not impose too many restrictions. In actual use, technicians can set it as needed.

[0201] Regardless of whether the first fixing layer 31 is a single-layer structure or a multi-layer structure, the first fixing layer 31 includes an EVA layer, and the EVA layer is disposed on a side of the first fixing layer 31 close to the adhesive layer 40. In the embodiment of the present application, the first connecting wire 24 is bonded to the surface of the first battery cell 13 via the EVA layer to improve the reliability of the connection between the first connecting wire 24 and the first battery cell 13.

[0202] Optionally, after the photovoltaic module is formed, the EVA layer of the first fixing layer 31 and the EVA layer of the adhesive layer 40 are integrated.

[0203] In the embodiment of the present application, after the photovoltaic module is formed, the EVA layer of the first fixing layer 31 and the EVA layer of the adhesive layer 40 are integrated into one, thereby ensuring the reliability of the bonding between the first fixing layer 31 and the adhesive layer 40 .

[0204] Optionally, both the first fixing layer 31 and the adhesive layer 40 are single-layer structures, wherein the first fixing layer 31 includes an EVA layer, and the adhesive layer 40 includes a POE layer.

[0205] In the embodiment of the present application, the first fixing layer 31 and the adhesive layer 40 can also be set to a single-layer structure. The first fixing layer 31 of the single-layer structure is an EVA layer, and the adhesive layer 40 of the single-layer structure is a POE layer. The first fixing layer 31 of the EVA material can be better bonded to the surface of the first battery cell 13, thereby fixing the first connecting line 24 to the surface of the first battery cell 13 to avoid the first connecting line 24 from being offset. The adhesive layer 40 of the POE material has a good water-blocking effect and can effectively prevent water vapor from reaching the first battery cell 13. Furthermore, the adhesive layer 40 of the POE material has a good bonding force with the first fixing layer 31 of the EVA material and can be better bonded to the first fixing layer 31, thereby ensuring the reliability of the photovoltaic module.
