Configuration and Problems of Conventional Examples Recently, solar cells have been attracting attention as a means of energy supply. The reason for this is that electrical energy can be easily extracted directly from the almost infinite amount of clean solar energy. Recently, solar cells have been used as a power source for car battery chargers, taking advantage of the fact that the electricity obtained from solar cells is direct current. Even if an automobile battery is not used for a long period of time, the battery will run out, but if the battery is charged with a charger powered by a solar cell, this can be prevented. However, the solar cell module used in conventional car battery chargers etc. simply connects the battery with the
It has been designed to suit the intended use, and not much else has been done. It goes without saying that it is preferable for solar cells to receive sunlight as vertically as possible. However, conventional solar cell modules have the drawback that the tilt angle can only be varied, and the solar cells cannot be reliably directed toward the sun in response to the ever-changing position of the sun. .

As a solution to this drawback,
In Publication No. 91461, a suction cup is provided on the solar cell module support. By attaching the suction cup to, for example, a window glass of an automobile, the module can be installed in a place with good light receiving conditions. However, such solar cell modules can be installed in a specific location by the action of the suction cup, but because the direction of the suction cup is fixed, it is not possible to install one inside a window glass, for example. They cannot be installed on the roof or bonnet of an automobile, and those that can be installed on such roofs have the disadvantage that they cannot be installed inside window glass.

Object of the Invention The present invention provides a solar cell module which does not have the disadvantages mentioned above, that is, it can be freely mounted not only on inclined and curved surfaces, but also on external surfaces such as roofs and inside glass, and that can be oriented as far as possible towards the sun. Our objective is to provide solar cell modules with

Structure of the Invention The present invention resides in that a solar cell module is provided with a rotatable suction cup so that the suction cup can be oriented on the same side as the light-receiving surface of the solar cell or on the opposite side. The suction cup may be attached to the solar cell module by any conventionally known method. For example, it is fitted onto the support of the solar cell module or fixed with a suitable fixture.

In this case, if the suction surface of the suction cup is provided facing the opposite side of the light-receiving surface of the solar cell, the suction cup can be suctioned to the surface of an object on the back side of the solar cell, and the solar cell module can be directed toward the sun. Furthermore, if the suction surface of the suction cup is placed facing the same side as the light-receiving surface of the solar cell, the suction cup will be attracted to the surface of an object on the light-receiving surface side of the solar cell, such as a glass surface, and the solar cell module will be oriented toward the sun. I can do it. In other words, if the suction surface of the suction cup is made rotatable so that it faces the same side as the light-receiving surface of the solar cell, or the opposite side,
Depending on the time and circumstances, it can be attached to the surface of any object on the same side as the light-receiving surface of the solar cell or on the back side. It will be appreciated that, in accordance with the present invention, the suction cup can be freely removed from the object to which it is attached and reattached.

In FIGS. 1 and 2, 1 indicates a solar cell module, and the solar cell module 1 consists of a solar cell 2, a back protective film 3, and a frame 4.
A support body 2 is attached to a frame 4 on the back side of the solar cell module 1.
0 is attached, and a suction cup 10 is attached to this support 20.
are fixed (four in Fig. 1). Suction cup 10 is made from a flexible material commonly used to make suction cups. Therefore, the suction cup 10 has a flat surface,
It will attract not only sloped surfaces but also curved surfaces as long as those surfaces are smooth. For example, in a car, the outside is generally painted and smooth, so the suction cup 10 can stick well to it and can support the solar cell module 1 on the spot. Therefore, in the examples shown in Figures 1 and 2, it is possible to attach the solar cell to any location such as the car bonnet, roof, trunk, window, etc. on the back of the solar cell. However, with this fixed suction cup, it cannot be installed inside a window glass or the like.

In FIGS. 3 and 4, a solar cell module 1 includes a solar cell 2, a back protective film 3, and a frame 4. As shown in FIG. In this example, a support 20 is attached to the frame 4 on the back side of the solar cell 1, but this support 20 is larger than the width of the solar cell module 1 and extends on both sides, and suction cups 10 are attached to both ends of the support 20. (4 in Figure 3). At this time, the suction surface of the suction cup 10 faces the same side as the light-receiving surface of the solar cell. Furthermore, the suction surface is located at a higher position than the light-receiving surface of the solar cell. In such an example, the solar cell module 1 can be attached to the surface of an object on the light-receiving surface side of the solar cell by suction.
Thus, for example, the solar cell module can be suction-mounted in the windshield of a motor vehicle and facing outward, ie towards the sun. When the solar cell module is attached to the window glass in this manner, more scattered light can be collected, so the performance of the solar cell can be fully demonstrated.

In this case, it is desirable to provide the suction cup outside the solar cell module as shown in the figure so as not to block the incident light to the solar cell.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, the portion indicated by C in FIG. 4 is rotatable by at least 180 degrees, so that
The suction surface of the suction cup in FIGS. 3 and 4 can be freely directed to the side opposite to the light-receiving surface of the solar cell, so that the solar cell module can be freely attached to objects on the back depending on the situation. It can now be attached, making it even more convenient.

Effects of the Invention Conventional solar cell modules simply had fixed suction cups attached to them, making it impossible to change the orientation of the suction cups, resulting in less flexibility in the installation location.However, the solar cell module of the present invention As is clear from the description of the above specific examples, it can be freely attached to flat surfaces, inclined surfaces, and curved surfaces, and there is no fear of it falling, and it can also be attached to vibrating parts such as the glass windows of cars. Maximum electrical output can be obtained by directing the solar cell module so that it receives sunlight as vertically as possible, but the solar cell module according to the present invention has a large degree of freedom in its installation location. Therefore, it has the effect of increasing electrical output.
Therefore, if the solar cell module according to the present invention is applied as, for example, a battery charger for an automobile, it can be freely installed inside or outside the automobile, thereby improving its charging efficiency. Furthermore, when used in a house, for example, it can be attached to any side of a window, and not only direct light but also scattered light can be effectively used for power generation, increasing the output.
