  By the way, the extension amount (mm / N) of the film body when a tensile force is applied in the surface direction of the film body in the solar cell mounting structure is usually larger than that of the solar cell.

  For this reason, for example, when a large external load is applied to the film body from, for example, wind or snow as a natural phenomenon, the film body tends to expand and deform larger than the solar cell in the surface direction. Then, in this case, a load based on the extension deformation of the film body is applied from the film body to the solar cell through the fixture. At this time, a reaction force based on the load is applied from the solar cell to the film body via the fixture.

  In other words, according to the above-described conventional technology, the film body and the solar cell joined to the film body give unnecessary loads to each other. Therefore, the solar cell having an elongation rate smaller than that of the film body is caused by these loads.

The invention of claim 8 is a method for forming a solar cell mounting structure according to claim 1, as illustrated in FIG. 1 (a) and FIG.
First, an initial tensile force T is applied to the film body 4 stretched on the stationary member 2, and then the solar cell 5 is attached to the film body 4 by the fixture 6. It is the formation method.

  In addition, in this section, the reference numerals and drawing numbers appended to the above terms are not intended to limit the technical scope of the present invention to the “Example” section and the contents of the drawings described later.

  The effects of the present invention are as follows.

The invention according to claim 1 is a film body stretched on the fixed member, a flexible plate-shaped solar cell provided along the surface of the film body, and a fixture for attaching the solar cell to the film body In the solar cell mounting structure in which the value of elongation when the film body is given a tensile force toward the surface direction is different from that of the solar cell,
The fixture is provided along the surface of the film body, and has an elastic mounting plate whose one end in the surface direction is joined to the film body and the other end is joined to the solar cell. Yes.

  For this reason, when a large external load is applied to the film body from wind, snow, etc., the film body tends to expand and deform more greatly than the solar cell in the surface direction. Accordingly, the elastic mounting plate is elastically deformed.

  Therefore, it is prevented that a load is applied from the film body to the solar cell due to the expansion deformation of the film body, and a reaction force based on the load due to the expansion deformation of the film body is prevented by the elastic deformation of the film body. It is also possible to prevent the solar cell from being applied to the film body via the mounting plate. That is, according to the invention, the film body and the solar cell bonded to the film body are prevented from applying unnecessary loads to each other by the elastic deformation of the elastic mounting plate. As a result, disconnection of the solar cell element and reduction in energy conversion performance due to an unnecessary load being applied to the solar cell element particularly in the solar cell are prevented, and improvement in the life of the film body and the solar cell is achieved. .

  In addition, since the elastic mounting plate has a plate shape, the elastic mounting plate can increase the bonding area between the film, the film body, and the solar cell compared with the case where the elastic mounting plate is formed into a string shape. The solar cell can be firmly attached to the film body. Therefore, as described above, when the film body is elongated and deformed based on the external load and a load is applied from the film body to the solar cell, occurrence of inconvenience such as separation of the solar cell from the film body is prevented. . As a result, the lifetime of the film body and the solar cell is improved.

  The invention of claim 2 is characterized in that the fixture has an attachment film material interposed between the membrane body and one end portion of the elastic attachment plate, and one end portion of the attachment film material in the surface direction and the membrane The body is bonded to each other, and the outer surface of the other end portion of the mounting film member is used as a modified surface, and the outer surface and one end portion of the elastic mounting plate are bonded to each other.

  Here, since the attachment film material can be easily processed into a desired size or a desired shape or cut, the attachment film as described above is included in the solar cell attachment structure. By using the material, the solar cell can be easily attached to the film body, and the solar cell can be easily replaced.

  Further, since the elastic mounting plate is usually made of a rubber material, it is difficult in terms of material to weld the elastic mounting plate and the mounting film material as they are. Therefore, instead of this welding, it is conceivable to sew. However, in this case, there is a risk that rainwater may easily enter due to perforation through which the thread passes, or that strength may be easily reduced. For this reason, it is practically difficult to join the elastic mounting plate and the mounting film material to each other by welding or sewing.

  Therefore, as described above, the outer surface of the other end portion of the mounting film material is used as a modified surface, and this outer surface and one end portion of the elastic mounting plate are bonded to each other. The other end of the attachment film material can be firmly adhered, and the solar cell can be firmly attached to the film body. Therefore, as described above, when the film body is elongated and deformed based on the external load and a load is applied from the film body to the solar cell, occurrence of inconvenience such as separation of the solar cell from the film body is prevented. . As a result, the improvement of the lifetime of these film bodies and solar cells is achieved more reliably.

  According to a third aspect of the present invention, the fixture includes a mounting film material interposed between the solar cell and the other end portion of the elastic mounting plate, and one end portion in the surface direction of the mounting film material and the above The solar cells are bonded to each other, and the outer surface of the other end portion of the mounting film material is used as a modified surface, and the outer surface and the other end portion of the elastic mounting plate are bonded to each other.

  Here, since the attachment film material can be easily processed into a desired size or a desired shape or cut, the attachment film as described above is included in the solar cell attachment structure. By using the material, the solar cell can be easily attached to the film body, and the solar cell can be easily replaced.

  Further, since the elastic mounting plate is usually made of a rubber material, it is difficult in terms of material to weld the elastic mounting plate and the mounting film material as they are. Therefore, instead of this welding, it is conceivable to sew. However, in this case, there is a risk that rainwater may easily enter due to perforation through which the thread passes, or that strength may be easily reduced. For this reason, it is practically difficult to join the elastic mounting plate and the mounting film material to each other by welding or sewing.

  Therefore, as described above, the outer surface of the other end portion of the mounting film material is used as a modified surface, and the outer surface and the other end portion of the elastic mounting plate are bonded to each other. And the other end portion of the other attachment film material can be firmly bonded, and the solar cell can be firmly attached to the film body. Therefore, as described above, when the film body is elongated and deformed based on the external load and a load is applied from the film body to the solar cell, occurrence of inconvenience such as separation of the solar cell from the film body is prevented. . As a result, the improvement of the lifetime of these film bodies and solar cells is achieved more reliably.

  According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, the fixture includes a mounting film material interposed between the film body and one end portion of the elastic mounting plate, and one end portion in the surface direction of the mounting film material and the film The body is joined to each other, and a locking portion is provided to lock the other end of the mounting film member and one end of the elastic mounting plate.

  For this reason, in the operation of attaching the solar cell to the film body using the fixture, for example, one end of the attachment film material is bonded to the film body in advance, and then the film body is stretched to the fixed member. Either before or after the installation, one end of the elastic mounting plate to which the solar cell is attached can be locked to the other end of the mounting film material by the locking portion. Therefore, the degree of freedom of the operation of attaching the solar cell to the film body is improved, and the operation of attaching the solar cell to the film body can be extremely easily performed by the locking portion.

  According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, the fixture includes a mounting film material interposed between the solar cell and the other end portion of the elastic mounting plate, and one end portion in the surface direction of the mounting film material and the above The solar cell is joined to each other, and a locking portion is provided to lock the other end portion of the mounting film material and the other end portion of the elastic mounting plate.

  For this reason, in the operation of attaching the solar cell to the film body by the mounting tool, for example, one end of the elastic mounting plate is joined to the film body in advance, and then the film body to the fixed-side member. Either before or after tensioning, the other end portion of the attachment film material to which the solar cell is attached can be engaged with the other end portion of the elastic attachment plate by the engagement portion. Therefore, the degree of freedom of the operation of attaching the solar cell to the film body is improved, and the operation of attaching the solar cell to the film body can be extremely easily performed by the locking portion.

  According to a sixth aspect of the present invention, the tensile elastic modulus (MPa) of the locking portion is made larger than the tensile elastic modulus (MPa) of the midway portion in the surface direction of the elastic mounting plate.

  For this reason, while the necessary elastic performance is maintained in the elastic mounting plate, the engagement of the other end portion of the mounting film material to the elastic mounting plate by the locking portion described above is firmly performed. The mounting strength of the solar cell to the film body by the stopper is sufficiently secured. Therefore, as described above, the solar cell can be easily attached to the film body by the engaging portion, but the film body is elongated and deformed based on the external load as described above, and the solar cell is removed from the film body. When a load is applied to the film body, inconveniences such as peeling of the solar cell from the film body are prevented. As a result, the improvement of the lifetime of these film bodies and solar cells is achieved.

  In the invention of claim 7, the value of the tensile elastic modulus (MPa) of the elastic mounting plate is 10 to 100.

  Here, if the value of the tensile elastic modulus of the elastic mounting plate is less than 10, the mounting strength of the solar cell to the film body by the elastic mounting plate tends to be insufficient. On the other hand, when the value of the tensile elastic modulus exceeds 100, the elastic deformation of the elastic mounting plate tends to be insufficient when a load due to the extension deformation of the film body is applied to the solar cell.

  Therefore, as described above, the value of the tensile modulus of elasticity of the elastic mounting plate is set to 10 to 100. By doing so, the mounting strength of the solar cell to the film body by the elastic mounting plate can be sufficiently secured. Further, compared to the case where the fixture is made of a general resin material, the elastic mounting plate can provide a sufficient amount of elastic deformation, and the film body and the solar cell give unnecessary loads to each other. This is more reliably prevented by the elastic deformation of the elastic mounting plate. Therefore, the disconnection of the solar cell element and the deterioration of the energy conversion performance due to the unnecessary load being applied to the solar cell element particularly in the solar cell are prevented, and the improvement in the lifetime of the film body and the solar cell is more reliably performed. Achieved.

Invention of Claim 8 is a formation method of the solar cell attachment structure of Claim 1, Comprising:
First, an initial tensile force is applied to the film body stretched on the fixed side member, and then the solar cell is attached to the film body with the above-described fixture.

  For this reason, since an initial tensile force is preliminarily applied to the film body and the film body is initially deformed, when the film body is subsequently subjected to some external load, the film body is initially deformed. The load applied to the solar cell from the film body that is stretched and deformed by an external load through the fixture is suppressed to be small, and the film body and the solar cell are more reliably prevented from applying unnecessary loads to each other. As a result, disconnection of the solar cell element and reduction in energy conversion performance due to an unnecessary load being applied to the solar cell element in the solar cell are prevented, and the lifetime of the film body and the solar cell is further improved. To be achieved.

  In the solar cell mounting structure of the present invention, when a solar cell is attached to the surface of a film body stretched on a stationary member such as a building with a fixture, the film body and the solar cell are mutually connected based on a natural phenomenon or the like. It is said that the life of the above-mentioned film body and solar cell is improved by preventing the application of unnecessary loads, particularly by preventing the disconnection of the solar cell element in the solar cell and preventing the deterioration of the energy conversion performance. In order to achieve the object, the mode for carrying out the present invention is as follows.

  That is, the solar cell mounting structure includes a film body stretched on the fixed member, a flexible plate-shaped solar cell provided along the surface of the film body, and an attachment for mounting the solar cell on the film body. Equipment. The value of the elongation rate when a tensile force is applied to the film body in the surface direction is different from that of the solar cell. The fixture has an elastic mounting plate, and the elastic mounting plate is provided along the surface of the film body, one end of the surface direction is joined to the film body, and the other end is the sun. Joined to the battery.

  In order to describe the present invention in more detail, the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 1 (a) and FIG.

  In FIG. 1 (a) and FIG. 2, the code | symbol 1 is a film-form solar power generation device. This solar power generation device 1 includes a film body 4 stretched on a stationary member 2 such as a building, and a flexibility that extends along the surface (upper surface) of the film body 4 and is disposed on the surface. A plurality of plate-shaped solar cells 5 and a fixture 6 for attaching the solar cells 5 to the film body 4 are provided.

  The film body 4 extends in a direction inclined with respect to the horizontal or horizontal plane so that the surface thereof faces sunlight. The film body 4 is given an initial tensile force T (N / m) having a predetermined value in at least one direction A in the plane direction. This film body 4 is coated with a base material that is a woven fabric formed of natural fibers such as kenaf fibers, synthetic fibers such as polyester fibers, or inorganic fibers such as glass fibers, and outer surfaces on the front and back of the base material ( And an outer surface material (coating material) made of a thermoplastic resin material such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or fluororesin. The outer surface material of the film body 4 may be a thermoplastic resin such as polyvinyl chloride or fluororesin, at least the outer surface of the portion to be welded by heat, and the outer surface of the other portion has a photocatalyst for preventing contamination. A layer or the like may be provided, or a photocatalyst layer may be formed by adding photocatalyst particles to the thermoplastic resin.

  Each of the solar cells 5 has a rectangular shape extending in the orthogonal direction B orthogonal to the one direction A, and has the same shape and size. Each of these solar cells 5 is arranged on the surface of the film body 4 so as to have a grid pattern in the one direction A and the orthogonal direction B in the plane direction of the film body 4. Each of the solar cells 5 receives solar light on its surface (upper surface) and converts the light energy into electric energy, and the solar cell element 9 entirely covers the solar cell element 9. And a terminal box 11 that collects the electric energy of the solar cell element 9 and outputs it to the outside. The surface material 10 is a transparent film made of a thermoplastic resin material such as a fluororesin, and is formed of, for example, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), tetrafluoroethylene-ethylene copolymer (ETFE), or the like.

  Here, the amount of elongation (mm / N) when the film body 4 is given a tensile force T in one direction A and in the orthogonal direction B in the plane direction is considerably larger than that of the solar cell 5. It is a large value, and both values are different from each other.

  The fixture 6 has an elastic mounting plate 14 that is entirely made of rubber and has flexibility. The elastic mounting plate 14 is provided along the outer surface of the film body 4 and along the outer edge of the solar cell 5, and is a rectangular frame in a plan view of the solar power generation device 1 (FIG. 2). It has a shape. Here, it is practically difficult for the resin material and the rubber material to be welded or sewn together. Therefore, the outer end edge portion which is one end portion 14a in the surface direction of the elastic mounting plate 14 is bonded and joined to the outer surface of the film body 4 with a resin adhesive 15, and the inner end edge which is the other end portion 14b. The portion is bonded and bonded to the surface material 10 on the surface (upper surface) of the outer edge portion of the solar cell 5 by an adhesive 15.

  The attachment 6 is preferably provided in a rectangular frame shape as shown in the figure, but not only in the rectangular frame shape, it may be provided at least on one side of the solar cell 5 as necessary. Moreover, you may provide in all the said one sides, and you may provide in a required location among each side.

  In addition to the rubber material, the elastic mounting plate 14 is made of a high-stretch thermoplastic resin made of polyurethane resin or the like on the surface of a stretchable cloth using elastic yarn such as spandex. It may be coated and the elongation at break may be 50 to 500%. If such an elastic mounting plate is used, not only adhesion but also welding can be performed.

  According to the solar cell mounting structure in the solar power generation device 1 having the above-described configuration, a large external load is applied to the film body 4 from wind, snow, or the like, and the film body 4 moves toward the surface. When it is going to extend and deform more than 5, the elastic mounting plate 14 is elastically deformed according to the expansion and deformation of the film body 4.

  Therefore, a load applied to the solar cell 5 from the film body 4 due to the extension deformation of the film body 4 is prevented by the elastic deformation of the elastic mounting plate 14 and is based on the load caused by the extension deformation of the film body 4. The reaction force is also prevented from being applied from the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 through the elastic mounting plate 14. That is, according to the above configuration, the film body 4 and the solar cell 5 bonded to the film body 4 are prevented from applying unnecessary loads to each other by the elastic deformation of the elastic mounting plate 14. As a result, disconnection of the solar cell element and reduction in energy conversion performance due to an unnecessary load being applied to the solar cell element particularly in the solar cell are prevented, and an improvement in the lifetime of the film body 4 and the solar cell 5 is achieved. Is done.

  In addition, since the elastic mounting plate 14 has a plate shape such as a sheet shape, the elastic mounting plate 14 has a bonding area between the film body 4 and the solar cell 5 compared to a string shape. The bonding strength can be increased, and the solar cell 5 can be firmly attached to the film body 4. Therefore, as described above, when the film body 4 expands and deforms based on an external load and a load is applied from the film body 4 to the solar cell 5, there is an inconvenience such as peeling of the solar cell 5 from the film body 4. Occurrence is prevented. As a result, the lifetime of the film body 4 and the solar cell 5 is improved.

  The value of the tensile elastic modulus E (MPa) of the elastic mounting plate 14 is 10 to 100.

  Here, if the value of the tensile elastic modulus E of the elastic mounting plate 14 is less than 10, the mounting strength of the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 by the elastic mounting plate 14 tends to be insufficient. On the other hand, when the value of the tensile elastic modulus E exceeds 100, the elastic deformation of the elastic mounting plate 14 tends to be insufficient when the load due to the extension deformation of the film body 4 is applied to the solar cell 5. It is.

Therefore, as described above, the value of the tensile elastic modulus E of the elastic mounting plate 14 is set to 10 to 100. By doing so, the mounting strength of the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 by the elastic mounting plate 14 is increased. Enough can be secured. Moreover, compared with making the said fixture 6 into a general resin material (for example, E = 2 * 10 < ³ > -5 * 10 < ⁴ > (MPa)), according to the said elastic attachment board 14, sufficient elastic deformation amount Thus, the film body 4 and the solar cell 5 are more reliably prevented from applying unnecessary loads to each other by the elastic deformation of the elastic mounting plate 14. Therefore, the disconnection of the solar cell element and the decrease in the energy conversion performance due to an unnecessary load being applied to the solar cell element particularly in the solar cell are prevented, and the life of the film body 4 and the solar cell 5 is improved. Certainly achieved.

  In addition, it is more preferable that the value of the tensile elastic modulus E of the elastic mounting plate 14 is 20-50.

  Among the solar power generation devices 1, in particular, as a method for forming a solar cell mounting structure in which the solar cell 5 is mounted on the film body 4, first, an initial tensile force is applied to the film body 4 stretched on the fixed side member 2. T is given, and then the solar cell 5 is attached to the film body 4 by the fixture 6.

  According to the above forming method, since the initial tensile force T is applied to the film body 4 in advance and the film body 4 is initially deformed, when the film body 4 is subsequently subjected to some external load, the film body 4 is initialized. The load applied to the solar cell 5 through the fixture 6 from the film body 4 that is extended and deformed by the external load is suppressed to a small extent, and the film body 4 and the solar cell 5 exert unnecessary loads on each other. Giving together is more reliably prevented. As a result, disconnection of the solar cell element due to an unnecessary load being applied to the solar cell element in the solar cell and a decrease in energy conversion performance are prevented, and improvement in the life of the film body 4 and the solar cell 5 is achieved. It is achieved more reliably.

  2, the elastic mounting plate 14 may be composed of a plurality of mounting plate pieces arranged at substantially equal pitches along the outer edge of the solar cell 5. Good. The solar cell 5 may be square or circular. Further, in the film body 4, a portion where the one end portion 14 a of the elastic mounting plate 14 is bonded by the adhesive 15 may be a modified surface such as a rough surface that is easily bonded by corona discharge or plasma discharge.

  The following FIGS. 1B to 1D and FIGS. 3A and 3B show Examples 2 to 6. Each of these embodiments is common in many respects to the configuration and operational effects of the first embodiment. Therefore, regarding these common items, common reference numerals are attached to the drawings, and redundant description thereof is omitted, and different points are mainly described. In addition, the configuration of each part in these embodiments may be variously combined in light of the object and operational effects of the present invention.

  In order to describe the present invention in more detail, the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

  In the figure, the other end portion 14 b in the surface direction of the elastic mounting plate 14 is bonded to the surface material 10 on the back surface (lower surface) of the outer end edge portion of the solar cell 5 with an adhesive 15.

  According to the above configuration, even if the adhesion area between the other end portion 14b of the elastic mounting plate 14 and the outer end edge portion of the solar cell 5 is increased to increase the adhesive strength thereof, The end portion 14b is prevented from covering the surface (upper surface) of the solar cell 5. Therefore, while the attachment strength of the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 by the elastic attachment plate 14 can be increased, the energy conversion performance of the solar cell 5 is kept good.

  In order to describe the present invention in more detail, the third embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

  In the figure, the fixture 6 has a mounting membrane material 21 interposed between the membrane body 4 and one end portion 14 a of the elastic mounting plate 14. The attachment film material 21 has a rectangular frame shape as in the elastic attachment plate 14 in a plan view of the photovoltaic power generator 1. The outer edge portion, which is one end portion in the surface direction of the attachment film material 21 (the width direction of each part in the longitudinal direction), and the film body 4 are joined to each other by welding W. On the other hand, the outer surface of the inner edge that is the other end of the attachment film material 21 is a modified surface, and the outer surface and one end portion 14 a of the elastic attachment plate 14 are bonded to each other by an adhesive 15. It should be noted that the bonding between the one end portion of the mounting film material 21 and the film body 4 may be performed by bonding or stitching instead of the welding W. Further, all or a part of the outer surface other than the outer surface of the other end portion of the mounting film material 21 may be a modified surface as described above.

  The same attachment film material 21 as that described for the film body 4 is applicable. In this case, it is preferable that the film body 4 and the attachment film material 21 have the same configuration and the same material.

  Here, since the attachment film material 21 can be easily processed into a desired size or a desired shape, or can be cut, the solar battery mounting structure in the solar power generation device 1 can be used. By using the attachment film material 21 as described above, it is possible to easily attach the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 and to easily replace the solar cell 5.

  Further, since the elastic mounting plate 14 is usually made of a rubber material, it is practically difficult to join the elastic mounting plate 14 and the film body 4 or the solar cell 5 to each other by welding or sewing. Therefore, as described above, the outer surface of the other end portion of the mounting film material 21 is used as a modified surface, and this outer surface and one end portion 14a of the elastic mounting plate 14 are bonded to each other. Can be firmly bonded to the other end portion of the attachment film material 21. Therefore, the solar cell 5 is firmly attached to the film body 4, and the life of the film body 4 and the solar cell 5 is improved more reliably.

  By the way, the adhering operation for adhering the elastic mounting plate 14 to the film body 4 stretched on the stationary member 2 is a complicated operation requiring skill.

  Therefore, the attachment film material 21 is provided as in the above configuration. According to this, when the attachment work for attaching the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 by the attachment 6 is performed, for example, first, a factory or the like Where the workability is good, the elastic mounting plate 14, the solar cell 5 and the mounting film material 21 are bonded together with an adhesive 15 to form a combined body 5, 14, 21, and then portable welding Using the hot air or hot plate of the machine, or using a sewing machine, the combined body 5, 14, 21 is applied to the surface of the film body 4 stretched on the stationary member 2 or the surface of the film body 4 before being stretched. It can be joined by welding W or sewing.

  Therefore, the formation of the combined bodies 5, 14, and 21 relating to the bonding work can be easily performed in a good workability, and the above-described welding W and sewing work use a portable welding machine or sewing machine. Accordingly, since a lot of skill is not required as compared with the bonding operation, it can be relatively easily performed, and accordingly, the operation of attaching the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 can be facilitated.

  In order to describe the present invention in more detail, Example 4 will be described with reference to FIG.

  In the figure, in addition to the third embodiment, the fixture 6 is interposed between the solar cell 5 and the other end 14b of the elastic mounting plate 14, and is made of the same material as the surface material of the solar cell 5. It has another attachment film material 23 made of a film. The other attachment film material 23 has a rectangular frame shape similar to that of the elastic attachment plate 14 in a plan view of the solar power generation device 1. The inner end edge portion which is one end portion in the surface direction (width direction of each portion in the longitudinal direction) of the other attachment film material 23 and the solar cell 5 are joined to each other by welding W. On the other hand, the outer surface of the outer edge which is the other end of the other mounting film material 23 is a modified surface, and the outer surface and the other end 14b of the elastic mounting plate 14 are bonded to each other by the adhesive 15. ing. In addition, the mutual joining of the one end part of the other mounting film member 23 and the solar cell 5 described above may be performed by bonding instead of the welding W. Further, all or a part of the outer surface other than the outer surface of the other end portion of the other attachment film material 23 may be the modified surface as described above.

  As the other attachment film material 23, the same one as described for the film body 4 can be applied. In this case, it is preferable that the film body 4 and the other attachment film material 23 have the same configuration and the same material.

  Here, since the other attachment film member 23 can be easily processed into a desired size or a desired shape, or can be cut, the solar battery attachment in the solar power generation device 1 is possible. By using the other attachment film material 23 as described above in the structure, the attachment work of the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 can be facilitated, and the replacement work of the solar battery 5 can be facilitated.

  Further, since the elastic mounting plate 14 is usually made of a rubber material, it is difficult in terms of material to weld the elastic mounting plate 14 and the other mounting film material 23 as they are. Therefore, instead of this welding, it is conceivable to sew. However, in this case, there is a risk that rainwater may easily enter due to perforation through which the thread passes, or that strength may be easily reduced. For this reason, it is practically difficult to join the elastic mounting plate and the mounting film material to each other by welding or sewing.

  Therefore, as described above, the outer surface of the other end portion of the attachment film member 23 is used as a modified surface, and this outer surface and the other end portion 14b of the elastic attachment plate 14 are bonded to each other. 14 can be firmly bonded to the other end portion 14b of the other attachment film member 23, and the solar cell 5 can be firmly attached to the film body 4. Therefore, as described above, when the film body 4 expands and deforms based on an external load and a load is applied from the film body 4 to the solar cell 5, there is an inconvenience such as peeling of the solar cell 5 from the film body 4. Occurrence is prevented. As a result, the lifetime of the film body 4 and the solar cell 5 is improved more reliably.

  By the way, as described above, the bonding operation for bonding the elastic mounting plate 14 to the film body 4 stretched on the fixed side member 2 is a complicated operation requiring skill.

  Therefore, the other attachment film material 23 is provided as in the above configuration. According to this, when the attachment work for attaching the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 by the attachment 6 is performed, for example, first, In a place where workability is good such as in a factory, the elastic mounting plate 14 is bonded to the mounting film material 21 and the other mounting film material 23 with the adhesive 15, and the other mounting film material 23 and the solar cell 5 are bonded together. The other combined bodies 5, 14, 21 and 23 are formed by welding to each other by welding W or adhesion, and then the other combined bodies 5, 14 are used by using the above-described portable welding machine or sewing machine. , 21, 23 can be joined to the surface of the film body 4 stretched on the stationary member 2 or the surface of the film body 4 before being stretched by welding W or sewing.

  Therefore, the formation of the other combined bodies 5, 14, 21, 23 relating to the bonding work can be easily performed at a good workability, and the welding W and the sewing work described above can be performed with a portable welding machine or a sewing machine. By using the dressing machine, it is possible to relatively easily do not require much skill as compared with the bonding work, and accordingly, the work of attaching the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 can be facilitated.

  In order to describe the present invention in more detail, Example 5 will be described with reference to FIG.

  In the figure, referring to the fourth embodiment, one end portion 14a of the elastic mounting plate 14 is a locking portion 26 having a C-shaped cross section. Then, the other end portion of the attachment film material 21 whose thickness is increased by the flexible long material 25 such as a rope or a rod-like rubber is locked to the locking portion 26. The other end portion 14b of the elastic mounting plate 14 is a locking portion 27 having a C-shaped cross section. And the other end part of the other attachment film | membrane material 23 thickened with the long material 25 similar to the above is latched by the said latching | locking part 27. As shown in FIG.

  Here, the one locking portion 26 formed on the one end portion 14a of the elastic mounting plate 14 is fitted into the other end portion of the mounting film material 21 from the end portion in the longitudinal direction so as to be locked. It has become. Further, the other locking portion 27 formed on the other end portion 14b of the elastic mounting plate 14 can be locked by inserting the other end portion of the other mounting film material 23 from the longitudinal end portion thereof. It is supposed to let you.

  Further, the value of the tensile elastic modulus E (MPa) of each of the locking portions 26 and 27 between the one end portion 14a and the other end portion 14b of the elastic mounting plate 14 is that of the middle portion of the elastic mounting plate 14 in the surface direction. Has been bigger than. As a result, the locking portions 26 and 27 between the one end portion 14a and the other end portion 14b of the elastic mounting plate 14 are made to have high hardness, while the elastic deformation amount in the middle portion of the elastic mounting plate 14 is increased. It is said that.

  In particular, in the case where the value of the tensile elastic modulus E of each of the locking portions 26 and 27 of the one end portion 14a and / or the other end portion 14b of the elastic mounting plate 14 is made larger than that of the middle portion of the elastic mounting plate 14. The locking portions 26 and 27 and the middle portion of the elastic mounting plate 14 having different values of the respective tensile elastic moduli E are integrally formed by a forming die such as an extrusion die of the elastic mounting plate 14. Can be easily formed. Therefore, it is possible to easily attach the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 by the fixture 6 and to firmly lock the other end portions of the attachment film materials 21 and 23 to the elastic mounting plate 14. It becomes possible.

  Note that only one of the locking portions 26 and 27 may be provided.

  According to the above configuration, in the operation of attaching the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 by the fixture 6, for example, one end of the attachment film material 21 is bonded to the film body 4 in advance, and then the fixing is performed. Either before or after the film body 4 is stretched on the side member 2, the one end portion 14 a of the elastic mounting plate 14 to which the solar cell 5 is attached is attached to the other end portion of the mounting film material 21. It can be locked by the stopper 26. Therefore, the degree of freedom in attaching the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 is improved, and the attaching operation of the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 can be extremely facilitated by the one locking portion 26.

  In addition, in the operation of attaching the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 by the fixture 6, for example, one end portion of the attachment film material 21 is joined to the film body 4 in advance, and the other end portion of the attachment film material 21. The one end portion 14a of the elastic mounting plate 14 is locked by the one locking portion 26, and then the elastic body plate is stretched either before or after the film body 4 is stretched to the fixed side member 2. The other end portion of the other attachment film member 23 to which the solar cell 5 is attached can be engaged with the other end portion 14 b of the attachment plate 14 by the other engagement portion 27. Therefore, the degree of freedom in attaching the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 is improved, and the attaching operation of the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 can be extremely facilitated by the other engaging portion 27.

  Further, as described above, the tensile elastic modulus (MPa) of the locking portions 26 and 27 is set larger than the value of the tensile elastic modulus (MPa) of the midway part in the surface direction of the elastic mounting plate.

  Therefore, the elastic mounting plate 14 maintains necessary elastic performance, while the locking portions 26 and 27 are firmly locked to the elastic mounting plate 14 at the other end portions of the mounting film materials 21 and 23. Therefore, the mounting strength of the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 by the locking portions 26 and 27 is sufficiently ensured. Therefore, as described above, the attachment of the solar cell 5 to the film body 4 can be facilitated by the locking portions 26 and 27, but the film body 4 is extended and deformed based on the external load as described above. When a load is applied from the film body 4 to the solar cell 5, inconveniences such as peeling of the solar cell 5 from the film body 4 are prevented. As a result, the lifetime of the film body 4 and the solar cell 5 is improved.
