Solar battery module
View Patent ↗Provided is a solar battery module having an outer edge maintained by a frame, and comprising a group of strings formed by using a plurality of solar battery cells, connecting adjacent solar battery cells in a longitudinal direction by an inter-cell wiring material to form a plurality of strings, and arranging the plurality of strings in a transverse direction, wherein a spacing distance A between the interior of the frame and the frame-side edge of solar battery cells of the outermost string in the group of strings, a spacing distance B between solar battery cells constituting adjacent strings in the group of strings, and a spacing distance C between the solar battery cells in the transverse direction satisfy the relationship {(995A−20C)/1005}<B<{(1005A+20C)/995}. Additionally, an olefinic resin is used in a first sealing member on the light receiving surface side.
1. A solar cell module comprising a stack body, and a frame holding an outer edge of the stack body,
wherein the stack body is formed by laminating, in the mentioned order,
a first protection member on a side of a light receiving surface,
a first sealing member on the side of the light receiving surface,
a string group formed by transversely arranging a plurality of strings each formed by using a plurality of solar cells, and by longitudinally connecting adjacent solar cells of the plurality of solar cells to each other with a wiring member,
a second sealing member on a side of a rear surface, and
a second protection member on the side of the rear surface;
wherein there are provided, between the adjacent solar cells, reflection members reflecting the incident light and again making the reflected light incident on a light receiving surface of the plurality of solar cells;
the first sealing member is constituted with an olefin-based resin;
spacing dimension A between a frame side edge of an outermost string in the string group and inside of the frame, spacing dimension B between adjacent strings in the string group, and transverse spacing dimension C of each of the plurality of solar cells satisfy a relation {(995A−20C)/1005}<B<{(1005A+20C)/995};
wherein each reflection member of the reflection members is constituted with a resin provided with, on the side of the light receiving surface, a reflection surface having recesses or protrusions parallel to the longitudinal direction, and
each of the reflection members is arranged along the longitudinal direction on the surface, on the side of the light receiving surface, of the portion of the second sealing member, exposed between the adjacent strings in the string group.
2. The solar cell module according to claim 1 , wherein the second sealing member is constituted with a white pigment.
3. The solar cell module according to claim 1 , wherein the spacing dimension A is set to be 5 to 8 mm.
4. The solar cell module according to claim 1 , wherein D<B, D representing spacing between longitudinally adjacent solar cells of the plurality of solar cells in a string of the string group.
