Abstract
The present invention discloses an electrically conductive module of a solar cell terminal box. The electrically conductive module comprises an insulation body, conducting strips and a diode chip, wherein there are two and only two conducting strips. The two conducting strips are electrically connected through the diode chip. The diode chip is located inside the insulation body. Each of the two conducting strips is provided with a through hole. The two side edges, which are fixed with the conducting strips, of the insulation body overlap with the through holes. A connection region between the insulation body and each of the conducting strips is only a region between the end portion of the corresponding through hole and the edge of the conducting strip. A part of each through hole is located inside the insulation body, and the remaining part of the through hole is located outside the insulation body and forms an enclosed busbar welding hole together with two side edges of the insulation body. The connection regions between the insulation body and the conducting strips are just the four smaller regions between the end portions of the through holes and the edges of the conducting strips, which can effectively prevent the insulation body from suffering the acting force exerted by the external force through the conducting strips, and avoid the phenomenon that the body is damaged or excessively stressed, etc.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention belongs to the technical field of solar cells, in particular to an electrically conductive module of a solar cell terminal box.


BACKGROUND OF THE TECHNOLOGY

The solar cell, also known as a “solar chip” or “photocell,” is a photoelectric semiconductor wafer that uses solar light to generate electricity directly. As long as the solar cell is illuminated by a certain illumination condition, it can output a voltage instantaneously and generate current in the presence of a loop. The terminal box is very important in the composition of a solar module, and mainly functions to connect the power generated by the solar cell to an external circuit. The traditional terminal box has a diode, conducting strips and soldering tin, wherein diode components are produced independently; the conducting strips are produced independently; a chip of the diode is soldered on positive and negative pins of the diode, and then encapsulated with potting glue to form the diode; the pins of the diode are then soldered to the conducting strips. In the production process, diode soldering requires significant manpower, material resources and production resources. At the same time, the diode chip and the conducting strips are subjected to secondary soldering, which reduces the heat conduction performance, such that the terminal box is easily damaged by heat generation.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

An object of the present invention is to provide an electrically conductive module of a solar cell terminal box, which is stable in structure, easy to mount and use and is replaceable.


In this regard, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows: an electrically conductive module of a solar cell terminal box comprises an insulation body, conducting strips and a diode chip, wherein there are two and only two conducting strips. The two conducting strips are electrically connected through the diode chip. The diode chip is located inside the insulation body. The electrically conductive module is characterized in that: each of the two conducting strips is provided with a through hole which is of a strip-shaped structure, and two ends of each through hole are close to the edge of the corresponding conducting strip; the two side edges, which are fixed with the conducting strips, of the insulation body overlap with the through holes; a connection region between the insulation body and each of the conducting strips is only a region between the end part of the corresponding through hole and the edge of the conducting strip; a part of each through hole is located inside the insulation body, and the remaining part of the through hole is located outside the insulation body, and form an enclosed busbar soldering hole together with two side edges of the insulation body.


Preferably, the insulation body wraps around the outside of a part of the conducting strips between the diode chip and the two through holes; with the conducting strips as a boundary, the insulation body is divided into an upper part and a lower part, wherein the diode chip is located on the upper part of the insulation body, and a radial section on the lower part of the insulation body is in an inverted trapezoidal shape; two side edges, close to the busbar soldering hole, of the insulation body are inclined surfaces.


Preferably, the diode chip is located on one of the conducting strips and connected to the other conducting strip via a jumper wire, and the diode chip is located in the center of the two conducting strips.


According to the electrically conductive module disclosed by the present invention, the insulation body just wraps around the through hole positions on the conducting strips, wherein a part of each through hole is located inside the body, and the other part of the through hole is located outside the body, such that the connection region between the insulation body and the conducting strips are the four smaller regions between the end parts of the through holes and the edges of the conducting strips, which can effectively prevent the insulation body from suffering the acting force exerted by the external force through the conducting strips, and avoid the phenomenon that the body is damaged or excessively stressed, etc. However, the edge of the insulation body and a half-edge hole exposed from the conducting strips form the enclosed busbar soldering hole. An inclined angle is arranged at the lower half edge of the insulation body, which facilitates correcting a busbar. A busbar soldering region of an assembly is arranged in the middle of the product, such that the busbar is welded more easily. However, the diode chip is located in the approximately central position of the entire product, such that heat can be transferred around effectively.
