Description

Sealing device for solar cell modules and sealing method using the same

[0001] The present invention relates to a sealing device for a solar cell module and a sealing method using the same.

[0002] Recently, solar cell modules have been in the spotlight, and active technological development regarding them is currently underway.

[0003] For example, as solar cell modules, perovskite solar cell modules, perovskite tandem solar cell modules, perovskite / silicon tandem solar cell modules, and silicon solar cell modules have been developed and are being used.

[0004] During the manufacturing process of solar cell modules, holes are required to connect the ribbon and the junction box. However, sealing these holes is extremely important because the penetration of moisture or humidity into the module through them can affect its reliability.

[0005] Conventionally, a sealing device consisting of multiple pieces was used to seal the holes through which ribbons pass. When sealing holes using such a multi-piece device, the sealing process becomes complex and time-consuming. Consequently, this leads to reduced sealing efficiency and hinders the mass production capabilities of solar cell modules.

[0006] The present invention aims to solve the above-mentioned problems, and the objective of the present invention is to provide a sealing device for simply and quickly sealing holes formed in a solar cell module and a sealing method using the same.

[0007] The problems of the present invention are not limited to those mentioned above, and other unmentioned problems will be clearly understood by a person skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains from the description below.

[0008] According to one aspect of the present invention, a sealing device for sealing a hole formed on one surface of a solar cell module to allow a ribbon to pass through is provided, comprising: a base portion supported on one surface of the solar cell module to cover the hole and having a ribbon through-hole through which the ribbon passes; an insertion portion formed protruding from one surface of the base portion to be inserted into the hole; and a cover portion formed protruding from the other surface of the base portion, wherein the cover portion covers the ribbon that passes through the ribbon through-hole and contacts the other surface of the base portion by being deformed by heat and pressure.

[0009] At this time, the base part, the insert part, and the cover part may be formed integrally.

[0010] Meanwhile, the base part, the insert part, and the cover part may be made of a sealing material.

[0011] At this time, the sealing material may include at least one of butyl, urethane, epoxy, and acrylic.

[0012] Meanwhile, the ribbon passing through the ribbon penetration hole and contacting the other surface of the base portion extends in the longitudinal direction of the base portion, and the cover portion includes a pair of cover walls spaced apart from each other on both sides in the width direction of the base portion, and the ribbon contacting the other surface of the base portion may be disposed between the pair of cover walls.

[0013] At this time, the pair of cover walls may each have an inner surface perpendicular to the other surface of the base part and an outer surface inclined such that as it moves away from the other surface of the base part, it becomes closer to the ribbon that contacts the other surface of the base part.

[0014] Meanwhile, the above pair of cover walls may each have an outer surface perpendicular to the other surface of the base portion and an inner surface inclined such that as it moves away from the other surface of the base portion, it becomes closer to the ribbon that contacts the other surface of the base portion.

[0015] Meanwhile, on the inner surface of each of the pair of cover walls, a vulnerable part may be formed to induce each cover wall to collapse toward the ribbon that contacts the other side of the base part upon deformation due to heat and pressure.

[0016] Meanwhile, the ribbon passing through the hole is provided in a pair, and the ribbon penetration hole corresponding to the pair of ribbons may be provided in a pair.

[0017] At this time, the pair of ribbon through-holes are spaced apart and arranged in the central region of the base part, and each of the pair of ribbons passes through each of the pair of ribbon through-holes to contact the other surface of the base part and can extend in one direction and the other direction of the length direction of the base part.

[0018] According to another aspect of the present invention, a sealing method using a sealing device for a solar cell module is provided, comprising: an insertion step of inserting an insertion part into a hole; a ribbon placement step of placing the ribbon that has passed through a ribbon through-hole formed in the base part so as to be in contact with the other surface of the base part; and a laminating step of deforming the cover part by heat and pressure so as to cover the ribbon that is in contact with the upper surface of the base part.

[0019] At this time, between the ribbon placement step and the laminating step, a sealing glass placement step of placing a sealing glass on the cover portion may be included.

[0020] According to the above configuration, the sealing device according to one aspect of the present invention has a base part, an insert part, and a cover part integrally formed, thereby enabling simple and rapid sealing of a hole formed on one surface of a solar cell module. Thus, the sealing operation efficiency is improved, and the mass production capability of the solar cell module is enhanced.

[0021] A sealing method according to one aspect of the present invention can seal a hole formed on one side of a solar cell module by using a sealing device in which a base part, an insert part, and a cover part are integrally formed, and is simpler and more effective compared to a conventional sealing method that seals a hole formed on one side of a solar cell module using multiple sealing members.

[0022] The effects of the present invention are not limited to the effects described above, and should be understood to include all effects that can be inferred from the configuration of the invention described in the detailed description or claims of the present invention.

[0040] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 5, a sealing device (100) for a solar cell module according to one embodiment of the present invention (hereinafter referred to as the 'sealing device (100)') is a device for sealing a hole formed on one surface of a solar cell module (10) so that a ribbon (30) passes through.

[0041] In one embodiment of the present invention, the solar cell module (10) may be any one of a perovskite solar cell module, a perovskite tandem solar cell module, a perovskite / silicon tandem solar cell module, and a silicon solar cell module, but is not limited thereto.

[0042] For reference, the solar cell module to be sealed by the sealing device (100) according to one embodiment of the present invention is schematically illustrated only in FIG. 1, and is omitted in FIG. 2 to FIG. 5.

[0043] For reference, in FIG. 1, the direction away from one side of the solar cell module (10) in which the hole (20) is formed, i.e., the +Z axis direction, is assumed to be the upper direction of the sealing device, the X axis direction is the length direction of the sealing device, and the Y axis direction is the width direction of the sealing device. At this time, the “one side” of the solar cell module (10) in which the hole (20) is formed can be called the “upper side” of the solar cell module (10).

[0044] Also, for convenience of explanation, the ribbon (30) is shown as a dotted line in FIGS. 1 to 5.

[0045] A sealing device (100) according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a base part (110), an insertion part (130), and a cover part (150).

[0046] The base portion (110) is supported on one side of the solar cell module (10) in which the hole (20) is formed, and covers the hole (20). The base portion (110) may have a flat plate shape having a predetermined length, width, and thickness. For example, the base portion (110) may have a rectangular flat plate shape, but is not limited thereto.

[0047] The base portion (110) is provided with a ribbon through hole (113) through which a ribbon (30) extending from the inside to the outside of the solar cell module (10) passes through the hole (20).

[0048] The ribbon (30) passing through the ribbon through hole (113) comes into contact with one side of the base part (110), that is, the upper surface.

[0049] The ribbon (30) in contact with the upper surface of the base portion (110) can be extended in one direction, for example, in the length direction of the base portion (110).

[0050] At this time, the lengthwise end of the ribbon through hole (113) and the base part (110) may have a predetermined length. For example, the lengthwise end of the ribbon through hole (113) and the base part (110) may have a length of 10 mm or more. In this case, the length of the ribbon (30) passing through the ribbon through hole (113) and contacting the upper surface of the base part (110) may be 10 mm or more.

[0051] In one embodiment of the present invention, the number of ribbon through-holes (113) corresponds to the number of ribbons (30) that extend outward through the holes.

[0052] For example, a pair of ribbons (30) may extend outward through a hole. In this case, the ribbon through-hole (113) is provided as a pair corresponding to the pair of ribbons (30) as shown in FIGS. 1 to 5.

[0053] In one embodiment of the present invention, the ribbon through-hole (113) may be positioned in the central region along the longitudinal direction of the base portion (110). At this time, a pair of ribbon through-holes (113) are spaced apart at a predetermined interval along the longitudinal direction of the base portion (110). At this time, the pair of ribbon through-holes (113) may have a symmetrical structure centered on the center along the longitudinal direction of the base portion (110).

[0054] In one embodiment of the present invention, the insertion part (130) is formed protruding from the other side, i.e., the bottom surface, of the base part (110).

[0055] The insertion part (130) is inserted into the hole (20). When the insertion part (130) is inserted into the hole (20), the base part (110) can be more stably supported on one side of the solar cell module (10) in which the hole (20) is formed.

[0056] The cross-sectional shape of the insertion part (130) corresponds to the cross-sectional shape of the hole (20).

[0057] In one embodiment of the present invention, the insertion part (130) has a hollow column shape. At this time, the ribbon (30) can be extended outward through the ribbon penetration hole (113) of the base part (110) via the insertion part (130). The cross-section of the insertion part (130) may be circular as shown in FIG. 1 and 5. Alternatively, although not illustrated, the cross-section of the insertion part may be polygonal.

[0058] Meanwhile, the insert portion may have a solid column shape, although not illustrated. In this case, a connecting through-hole may be formed in the insert portion, which is connected to the ribbon through-hole formed in the base portion and through which the ribbon is positioned. In this case, the ribbon may extend to the outside through the ribbon through-hole of the base portion via the connecting through-hole.

[0059] In one embodiment of the present invention, a cover portion (150) is formed protrudingly on the upper surface of the base portion (110). The cover portion (150) covers a ribbon (30) that passes through the ribbon penetration hole (113) and contacts the upper surface of the base portion (110) by being deformed by heat and pressure. Hereinafter, the process of deforming the cover portion (150) by heat and pressure is referred to as a laminating process.

[0060] In one embodiment of the present invention, the cover portion may include a pair of cover walls (151).

[0061] A pair of cover walls (151) extend in the direction of extension of the ribbon (30) that contacts the upper surface of the base portion (110). For example, the ribbon (30) that passes through the ribbon through hole (113) and contacts the upper surface of the base portion (110) may extend in the longitudinal direction of the base portion (110). In this case, a pair of cover walls (151) may extend in the longitudinal direction of the base portion (110).

[0062] A pair of cover walls (151) may be spaced apart on both sides of a ribbon (30) that contacts the upper surface of the base portion (110). Alternatively, a pair of cover walls (151) may be spaced apart from each other on both sides in the width direction of the base portion (110), and a ribbon that contacts the upper surface of the base portion (110) may be placed between the pair of cover walls (151). In this case, a ribbon that contacts the upper surface of the base portion (110) may be placed in the central area in the width direction of the base portion (110).

[0063] A pair of such cover walls (151) are deformed by heat and pressure through a laminating process to cover the opposite side of the contact surface that contacts the base portion (110) of the ribbon (30).

[0064] FIG. 6 is a drawing illustrating a state in which the cover portion of a sealing device according to an embodiment of the present invention is deformed to cover a ribbon in contact with the upper surface of the base portion through a laminating process. For reference, in FIG. 6, the portion indicated by the dotted line represents a part of the cover wall before being deformed by the laminating process, and the portion indicated by the dashed line represents a part of the cover wall deformed by the laminating process.

[0065] Referring to FIG. 6, heat and pressure are applied to the cover portion (150). At this time, the pressure may be applied in a direction in which the cover wall (151) is compressed toward the base portion (110).

[0066] A pair of cover walls (151) are deformed by heat and pressure to cover the ribbon (30) in contact with the upper surface of the base part (110), as indicated by the dashed line.

[0067] A pair of cover walls (151) have a length and height sufficient to cover the ribbon (30) in the length and width directions, which passes through the ribbon penetration hole (113) of the base part and contacts the upper surface of the base part (110) when deformed by heat and pressure.

[0068] In one embodiment of the present invention, the width of each cover wall (151) may have the same size in the direction away from the upper surface of the base portion (110), as shown in FIG. 3. In other words, both the inner and outer sides of each cover wall (151) may extend in a direction perpendicular to the upper surface of the base portion (110). Here, among the sides of the cover wall (151), the side closer to the ribbon (30) that contacts the upper surface of the base portion (110) is called the inner side, and the side further away is called the outer side.

[0069] In another embodiment of the present invention, the width of each cover wall (151') may be formed to narrow in a direction away from the upper surface of the base portion (110), as shown in FIG. 7. Alternatively, each cover wall (151') has an inner surface perpendicular to the upper surface of the base portion (110) and an outer surface inclined so as to become closer to the ribbon (30) in contact with the upper surface of the base portion (110) as it moves away from the upper surface of the base portion (110). For reference, FIG. 7 is a drawing showing a modified example of the cover wall illustrated in FIG. 3.

[0070] In this case, when heat and pressure are applied to deform the cover wall (151'), the cover wall (151') can easily collapse and deform toward the ribbon (30) in contact with the upper surface of the base portion (110). In this case, the deformed cover wall (151') can easily and effectively cover the opposite side of the contact surface of the ribbon (30) in contact with the base portion (110).

[0071] In another embodiment of the present invention, the width of each cover wall (151) may be formed to widen in a direction away from the upper surface of the base portion (110), as shown in FIG. 8. Alternatively, each cover wall (151) has an outer surface perpendicular to the upper surface of the base portion (110) and an inner surface inclined so that as it moves away from the other surface of the base portion (110), it becomes closer to the ribbon (30) that contacts the upper surface of the base portion (110). For reference, FIG. 8 is a drawing showing another variation of the cover wall illustrated in FIG. 3.

[0072] In this case, when heat and pressure are applied to deform the cover wall (151) to deform it, the cover wall (151) can easily collapse and deform toward the ribbon (30) in contact with the base part (110).

[0073] In another embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 9, a vulnerable portion (151a) may be formed on the inner surface of each cover wall (151) to induce each cover wall (151''') to collapse toward the ribbon (30) that contacts the upper surface of the base portion (110) upon deformation. For reference, FIG. 9 is a drawing showing another modified example of the cover wall illustrated in FIG. 3.

[0074] For example, the vulnerable portion (151a) may be a groove formed on the inner surface. In this case, the groove may be formed to extend in the longitudinal direction of each cover wall (151''').

[0075] In this case, during the process of deforming the cover wall (151'''), the cover wall (151''') can easily collapse and deform toward the ribbon (30) in contact with the upper surface of the base part (110) due to the weak part (151a) formed on the inner side.

[0076] In one embodiment of the present invention, a sealing device (100) including a base part (110), an insert part (130), and a cover part (150) can be manufactured integrally by injection molding.

[0077] In one embodiment of the present invention, a sealing device (100) comprising a base portion (110), an insert portion (130), and a cover portion (150) is made of a sealing material.

[0078] For example, the sealing material may include at least one of butyl, urethane, epoxy, and acrylic having moisture resistance. Preferably, the sealing material includes butyl. Butyl has greater moisture resistance than urethane, epoxy, or acrylic.

[0079] As described above, the sealing device (100) according to the present embodiment has a base part (110), an insertion part (130), and a cover part (150) formed integrally, thereby enabling simple and rapid sealing of a hole (20) formed on one side of a solar cell module (10). Thus, the sealing work efficiency is improved, and the mass production capability of the solar cell module is enhanced.

[0080] FIG. 10 is a flowchart of a method for sealing a solar cell module using a sealing device according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 11 to 14 are drawings for explaining a method for sealing using a sealing device according to an embodiment of the present invention. For reference, FIGS. 11 to 14 schematically illustrate a part of a solar cell module to be sealed.

[0081] Referring to FIGS. 10 to 14, a sealing method according to one embodiment of the present invention is a method using the sealing device (100) described above, and includes an insertion step (S100), a ribbon placement step (S200), and a laminating step (S300).

[0082] Specifically, referring to FIG. 11, a sealing device (100) is positioned opposite a solar cell module (10) having a hole (20) formed on one side. At this time, the insertion part (130) of the sealing device (100) and the hole (20) are aligned, and a ribbon (30) can be extended from the inside to the outside of the solar cell module (10) through the hole (20). At this time, a pair of ribbons (30) can be extended to the outside through the hole (20).

[0083] Referring to FIGS. 10 and 12, in the insertion step, the insertion part (130) of the sealing device (100) is inserted into a hole (20) formed on one side of the solar cell module (10). When the insertion part (130) is inserted into the hole (20) of the solar cell module (10), the bottom surface of the base part (110) of the sealing device (100) is supported on one side of the solar cell module (10).

[0084] At this time, the ribbon (30) is extended to the outside through the ribbon penetration hole (113) formed in the base part (110) via the insertion part (130).

[0085] Referring to FIGS. 9 and FIGS. 12, in the ribbon placement step (S200), the ribbon (30) passing through the ribbon through-hole (113) formed in the base part (110) is placed so as to be in contact with the upper surface of the base part (110). For example, a sealing worker may apply an external force to the ribbon (30) passing through the ribbon through-hole (113) to place it so as to be in contact with the upper surface of the base part (110). At this time, the ribbon (30) extending outward through the ribbon through-hole (113) via the hole (20) is deformed into a bent or broken shape at the ribbon through-hole (113).

[0086] Referring to FIG. 12, a sealing glass placement step may be performed after the ribbon placement step (S200). In the sealing glass placement step, a sealing glass (50) is placed on the upper surface of the cover portion (150). At this time, the sealing glass (50) may be placed across a pair of cover walls (151). This sealing glass (50) evenly distributes the pressure applied to the cover portion (150) for deformation during the laminating step (S300) described later to the cover portion (150).

[0087] Referring to FIGS. 10 and FIGS. 13, in the laminating step (S300), the cover portion (150) is deformed by heat and pressure so that the cover portion (150) covers the ribbon (30) that contacts the upper surface of the base portion (110). At this time, the cover portion (150) shown in FIG. 12 can be deformed flat as in FIG. 13.

[0088] Through the laminating step (S300), the contact surface that contacts the upper surface of the base portion (110) of the ribbon (30) and the opposite surface are not exposed to the outside.

[0089] In addition, the heat and pressure used to deform the cover portion (150) during the laminating step (S300) can also deform the base portion (110) and the insert portion (130). In this case, the base portion (110) can be deformed to be in closer contact with one side of the solar cell module, and the insert portion (130) can be deformed to be in close contact with the inner side of the hole (20).

[0090] Referring to FIG. 14, after the laminating step (S300), a junction box (40) may be installed on one side of the solar cell module (10) to cover the sealing device (100). For reference, FIG. 14 is a drawing showing the installation of a junction box on a solar cell module that is sealed by a sealing device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0091] At this time, the ribbon (30) exposed to the outside from the sealing device (100) after the laminating step (S300) can be connected to a connector (41) placed inside the junction box (40).

[0092] The sealing method according to one embodiment of the present invention described above can seal a hole (20) formed on one side of a solar cell module (10) by using a sealing device (100) in which a base part (110), an insertion part (130), and a cover part (150) are integrally formed, and is simpler and more effective than the conventional sealing method of sealing a hole formed on one side of a solar cell module with multiple sealing members.

[0093] Although embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the spirit of the present invention is not limited by the embodiments presented in this specification. Those skilled in the art who understand the spirit of the present invention may easily propose other embodiments within the scope of the same spirit by adding, changing, deleting, or adding components, and such are also to be considered to fall within the scope of the spirit of the present invention.
