the two diodes corresponding to each battery unit group are arranged in the same junction box.
The technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention is that a jumper wire is electrically connected between the first connecting points of two first battery strings connected in series and the second connecting points of two second battery strings connected in series in each battery unit group, wherein the jumper comprises a first sub-part and a second sub-part which are connected with each other, and the first battery string and the second battery string which have any common terminal are reversely connected in parallel with the same diode through different sub-parts of the jumper, the diodes are connected in parallel with only one first battery string and one second battery string, and compared with the prior art in which each diode is connected in parallel with two first battery strings and two second battery strings, the number of battery strings connected in parallel with the diodes is reduced, on the premise of ensuring that the diode is not broken down, the number of the cells in each cell string is increased, and the problem that the diode is broken down reversely when the number of the cells in the photovoltaic module is increased is solved.
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be obtained by a person skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without any creative work, belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention, but the present invention may be practiced in other embodiments that depart from the specific details disclosed herein, and it will be recognized by those skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced without these specific details.
Next, the present invention is described in detail with reference to the schematic drawings, and in the detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention, the schematic drawings showing the structure of the device are not enlarged partially according to the general scale for convenience of description, and the schematic drawings are only examples, which should not limit the scope of the present invention. In addition, the three-dimensional dimensions of length, width and height should be included in the actual fabrication.
Fig. 2 is a schematic circuit diagram of a photovoltaic module according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, the photovoltaic module includes at least one cell stack 100, the cell stack 100 includes a first battery cell 110 and a second battery cell 120 connected in parallel, the first battery cell 110 includes two first battery strings 101 connected in series, the second battery cell 120 includes two second battery strings 102 connected in series, and each of the first battery strings 101 and the second battery strings 102 includes a plurality of battery sheets 201 connected in series and equal in number. In the same battery cell group 100, a first connection point O of two first battery strings 101 connected in series and a second connection point P of two second battery strings 102 connected in series are electrically connected through a jumper 300, the jumper 300 includes a first sub-part 310 and a second sub-part 320 connected with each other, the first battery string 101 and the second battery string 102 arbitrarily having a common endpoint are respectively connected in reverse parallel with the same diode 200 through different sub-parts of the jumper 300, wherein the battery cell 201 is a half-cell cut from a whole battery cell, and two diodes 200 corresponding to each battery cell group 100 are disposed in the same junction box.
The diode 200 can prevent a hot spot effect from being generated when the first battery unit 110 or the second battery unit 120 connected in parallel with the diode is shielded. In addition, the reason why the first battery cell 110 and the second battery cell 120 in each battery cell group 100 are connected in parallel is that: when all the cells 201 are connected in series, the output voltage at two ends of the photovoltaic module is larger, and the arrangement can reduce the output voltage of the photovoltaic module by half.
It should be noted that the jumper 300 is used to electrically connect the first connection point O and the second connection point P, and is insulated from other conductive structures. The insulating manner of the jumper 300 and other conductive structures is not particularly limited in this embodiment, and for example, an insulating layer may be disposed between the jumper 300 and other conductive structures, or the jumper 300 includes a peripheral insulating layer.
In the present embodiment, the first sub-portion 310 and the second sub-portion 320 of the jumper 300 may be an integrally formed structure, or may be a separate structure, and preferably, both are integrally formed for easy manufacturing.
In addition, the arrangement that each battery cell group 100 corresponds to two diodes 200 arranged in the same junction box is beneficial to simplifying the structure of the photovoltaic module. It is understood that two diodes 200 corresponding to each battery cell group 100 may be respectively disposed in one junction box, or all diodes 200 corresponding to each battery cell group 100 may be disposed in the same junction box, which is not particularly limited in this embodiment.
In the solution provided in this embodiment, a jumper 300 is electrically connected between the first connection point O of two first battery cells 110 connected in series and the second connection point P of two second battery cells 120 connected in series in each battery cell group 100, wherein the jumper 300 includes a first sub-part 310 and a second sub-part 320 connected with each other, and the first battery cell 110 and the second battery cell 120 having any common terminal are connected in parallel with the same diode 200 in an inverse direction through different sub-parts of the jumper 300, so that the diode 200 is connected in parallel with only one first battery cell 110 and one second battery cell 120, compared with the prior art in which each diode 200 is connected in parallel with two first battery cells 110 and two second battery cells 120, the number of battery strings connected in parallel with the diode 200 is reduced, and the number of battery sheets 201 in each battery string is increased on the premise that the diode 200 is not broken down, and further, the problem that the diode 200 is subjected to reverse breakdown easily caused by increasing the number of the cell sheets 210 in the photovoltaic module is avoided.
Further, with continued reference to fig. 2, the number of at least one cell stack 100 is three, and adjacent cell stacks 100 are connected in series.
It should be noted that, the photovoltaic resistor structure shown in fig. 2 adopts the conventional width of the photovoltaic module in the prior art, that is, the width of 6 battery strings, so that the characteristic size of the photovoltaic module is not significantly increased, the layout is convenient, and the increase of the design difficulty is avoided.
It should be understood that, in other embodiments of the present embodiment, the adjacent battery cell groups 100 may be connected in parallel, which is not specifically limited in the present embodiment, and only the adjacent battery cell groups 100 are connected in series as an example.
Optionally, the number of the battery slices 201 in the first battery string 101 and the second battery string 102 is greater than or equal to 12.
It should be noted that, the conventional diode is limited by its reverse voltage withstanding capability, and the number of cells that can be protected at most does not exceed 24, and for the photovoltaic module in the prior art shown in fig. 1, the reverse voltage of each diode is equal to the total voltage of two series strings of cells connected in parallel, so the number of cells in each string is at most 12, and the number of cells in the photovoltaic module shown in fig. 1 is at most 144. In the photovoltaic module provided in this embodiment, the reverse voltage of each diode is equal to the voltage of one cell string, and the number of the cells in each cell string may be at most 24, that is, compared with the scheme in which the number of the cells in the cell string is at most 12 in fig. 1, the number of the cells in each cell string in the photovoltaic module provided in this embodiment may be increased by one time, and further, when the number of the cell strings is equal, the total number of the cells in the photovoltaic module may be increased by one time. Based on the above analysis, the number of the cells in the first cell string and the second cell string is set to be greater than the maximum number of the cells that the cell string in the prior art can contain, that is, 12 cells, so as to increase the number of the cells in the photovoltaic module on the premise of ensuring the normal operation of the photovoltaic module, and obtain better device performance compared with the prior art. And the number of the battery pieces in the first battery string and the second battery string can be equal to the maximum number of the battery pieces which can be contained in the battery string in the prior art, namely 12 battery pieces, at the moment, the number of the battery pieces which are connected in parallel with each diode is far smaller than the number of the battery pieces which can be loaded at the maximum, and compared with the prior art in which the diode needs to adopt the maximum reverse voltage-resistant load-bearing 12 battery pieces, the probability of reverse breakdown of the diode is effectively reduced due to the performance fluctuation of the diode caused by the influence of process errors in the technical scheme provided by the embodiment.
Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the photovoltaic module of fig. 2. As shown in fig. 3, all the cells 201 in the photovoltaic module are arranged in N rows and M columns, the extending direction of the cell rows is a first direction X, the extending direction of the cell columns is a second direction Y, and the jumper 300 extends along the second direction Y, where N and M are even numbers. N/2 battery pieces 201 in the 1 st row to the N/2 nd row in each battery piece column are sequentially connected in series to form a first battery string 101, and N/2 battery pieces 201 in the N/2+1 st row to the N nd row are sequentially connected in series to form a second battery string 102. Two first battery strings 101 respectively positioned in the nth column and the (n + 1) th column are connected in series to form a first battery unit 110, and two second battery strings 102 respectively positioned in the nth column and the (n + 1) th column are connected in series to form a second battery unit 120, wherein n is 2p +1, p is a non-negative integer, and n is less than M. The first battery cell 110 and the second battery cell 120 arranged in the second direction Y are connected in parallel as the battery cell group.
Specifically, in FIG. 3, N is equal to 24 and M is equal to 6. With continued reference to fig. 3, the two first battery strings 101 located in the 1 st and 2 nd columns are serially connected as a first battery unit 111, the two first battery strings 101 located in the 3 rd and 4 th columns are serially connected as a second first battery unit 112, and the two first battery strings 101 located in the 5 th and 6 th columns are serially connected as a third first battery unit 113. The two second battery strings 102 in the 1 st and 2 nd columns are connected in series to form a second battery unit 121, the two second battery strings 102 in the 3 rd and 4 th columns are connected in series to form a second battery unit 122, and the two second battery strings 102 in the 5 th and 6 th columns are connected in series to form a third battery unit 123. The first and second battery cells 111 and 121 are arranged in the second direction Y and are connected in parallel to form a battery cell group. Similarly, the first battery cell b 112 and the second battery cell b 122 are connected in parallel to form a battery cell group, and the first battery cell c 113 and the second battery cell c 123 are connected in parallel to form a battery cell group. Optionally, the three battery cell groups are connected in series.
It should be noted that, in fig. 3, only N is equal to 24 and M is equal to 6, which are taken as an example and not a limitation, and in other embodiments of this embodiment, N and M may be other even numbers.
It should be further noted that the structure of the photovoltaic module shown in fig. 3 enables all the cells 201 to be regularly and tightly arranged, which facilitates the electrical connection between the adjacent cells 201 on one hand, and facilitates the reduction of the occupied space of the whole photovoltaic module on the other hand.
Illustratively, as shown in fig. 3, the photovoltaic module further includes a center bus bar 500 along the first direction, the center bus bar 500 is disposed in the gap between the N/2 th row and the N/2+1 th row of the cell sheets 201, and the first cell unit 110 and the second cell unit 120 arranged along the second direction Y are connected in parallel to the center bus bar 500.
Optionally, the central bus bar 500 includes M/2 partition regions 501, the partition regions 501 are located between two common endpoints in the battery cell group, and one diode 200 is electrically connected between the endpoint of the two central bus bars 500 formed by the partition regions 501 and the jumper 300.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the central bus bar 500 is used to implement parallel connection between each first battery unit 110 and the corresponding second battery unit 120, which is beneficial to reducing the difficulty of design and process, and has a simple structure and a small influence on the normal operation of the photovoltaic module.
Optionally, referring to fig. 3, a connection point of the first sub-portion 310 and the second sub-portion 320 of the jumper 300 may be electrically connected to an L-shaped outgoing line 600, a first side 601 of the L-shaped outgoing line 600 is attached to the jumper 300, a second side 602 of the L-shaped outgoing line 600 is perpendicular to a plane where the cell array is located, the L-shaped outgoing lines 600 correspond to the partition regions 501 one by one, and two diodes 200 are electrically connected between end points of two central bus bars formed by the partition regions 501 and the second side 602 of the corresponding L-shaped outgoing line 600, respectively.
It should be noted that the L-shaped outgoing line 600 is a dielectric medium for electrically connecting the jumper 300 and the corresponding two diodes 200, and the setting process is simple and easy to implement, and the number of connecting lines can be reduced, which is beneficial to simplifying the structure of the photovoltaic module.
It should be noted that, the present embodiment is only described by taking the example that the jumper 300 and the two corresponding diodes 200 are electrically connected through the L-shaped outgoing line 600, and is not limited thereto, and any structure capable of electrically connecting the jumper 300 and the two corresponding diodes 200 is within the protection scope of the present embodiment.
With continued reference to fig. 3, the photovoltaic module may further include M edge-connecting bus bars 700, wherein ends of the two first cell strings 101, which are respectively located at the nth column and the (n + 1) th column, which are away from the central bus bar 500, are connected in series through the edge-connecting bus bars 700, and ends of the two second cell strings 102, which are respectively located at the nth column and the (n + 1) th column, which are away from the central bus bar 500, are connected in series through the edge-connecting bus bars 700.
It should be noted that the edge connection bus bar 700 can be disposed outside the cell array, and it does not intersect with the cell array, so that the normal operation of the photovoltaic module is not affected, and the overall occupied space of the cell array is not affected.
It should be noted that the edge connection bus bar 700, the center bus bar 500, and the jumper wire 300 can be formed in the same process step, thereby achieving the advantage of simplifying the process steps.
Fig. 4 is a schematic sectional view along the dashed line AB in fig. 3. As shown in fig. 4, in a direction Z perpendicular to a plane of the cell array, the jumper 300 partially overlaps the cell array 10, and an insulating layer 400 is disposed between the jumper 300 and the cell array 10 at least in an overlapping area.
It should be noted that the jumper 300 is generally a conductor formed by a conductive material, and when there is an overlap with the cell array 10, an interconnection bar (not shown) for achieving electrical connection between the cells is easy to overlap with the jumper 300, and if the two are in direct contact with each other, the electrical connection may be caused, thereby affecting the normal operation of the photovoltaic module. Therefore, an insulation layer 400 is disposed between the jumper line 300 and the battery cell array 10, and the insulation layer 400 is disposed at least in an overlapping region of the jumper line 300 and the interconnection bar (not shown) to ensure insulation. It is understood that, for the convenience of preparation, the insulating layer 400 may also be disposed in the surrounding area at the same time, as shown in fig. 4, which is not particularly limited in this embodiment, as long as the normal operation of the photovoltaic module is not affected.
Illustratively, the insulating layer 400 may be a light reflecting film.
It should be noted that the reflective film can also have other light reflection effects besides the insulating effect, which is beneficial to the improvement of the performance of the photovoltaic module device.
Illustratively, with continued reference to fig. 4, the difference between the width of the insulating layer 400 and the width of the jumper 300 is greater than or equal to 5mm in the row direction X of the cell matrix 10.
Referring to fig. 3, the length of the insulating layer 400 is greater than the length of the cell matrix and less than the distance between the first connection point O and the second connection point P in the column direction Y of the cell matrix.
It should be noted that, in order to avoid that the actual positions and the preset positions of the jumper wire 300 and the insulating layer 400 are deviated due to a process error, and thus the actual positions and the preset positions are misaligned, the width of the insulating layer 400 is set to be greater than the width of the jumper wire 300, and the width of the insulating layer 400 is set to be at least twice the displacement length of the process error greater than the width of the jumper wire 300, for example, the difference between the width of the insulating layer 400 and the width of the jumper wire 300 is set to be equal to or equal to 5mm according to a conventional process error.
Similarly, the length of the insulating layer 400 is set to be greater than the length of the battery cell array, and in order to prevent the insulating layer 400 from affecting the electrical connection between the jumper 300 and the first connection point O and the second connection point P, the length of the insulating layer 400 is set to be smaller than the length between the first connection point O and the second connection point P.
