The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a concentrator photovoltaic module, and a transport jig.
This application claims priority on Japanese Patent Application No. 2018-038644 filed on Mar. 5, 2018, the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference.
A unit serving as an optical base unit in a concentrator photovoltaic apparatus includes: for example, a primary condenser lens being a convex lens, a secondary condenser lens being a spherical lens, and a power generating element (see PATENT LITERATURE 1 (FIG. 8), for example). As the power generating element, a solar cell formed by a compound semiconductor element having high power generation efficiency is used. Sunlight is concentrated by the primary condenser lens to be incident on the secondary condenser lens, and then, is further concentrated by the secondary condenser lens to reach the power generating element.
A large number of such concentrator photovoltaic units are arranged in a matrix to form a concentrator photovoltaic module, and then, a large number of such modules are arranged in a matrix to form a concentrator photovoltaic panel. The concentrator photovoltaic panel forms a concentrator photovoltaic apparatus, together with a driving device for causing the panel to perform tracking operation while facing the sun.
In the concentrator photovoltaic module mentioned above, a bottom plate of a housing has a large number of power generating elements mounted at the surface thereof. As a material of this bottom plate, a metal plate (e.g., an aluminum plate or the like) having a small plate thickness is sometimes used from the viewpoint of suppressing production cost and ensuring heat dissipation performance. A frame body forming an outer frame of the housing supports an outer edge portion of the bottom plate. As a material of this frame body, a resin material is sometimes used to suppress production cost.
(1) A method according to one embodiment is a method for manufacturing a concentrator photovoltaic module including: a plurality of power generating elements onto which sunlight is concentrated by a plurality of condenser lenses; and a housing configured to accommodate the plurality of power generating elements. The housing includes a resin frame body, and a metal bottom plate that closes a bottom-side opening of the frame body and has an inner surface on which the plurality of power generating elements are disposed. The method includes: a first step of bringing a peripheral edge of the inner surface of the bottom plate into contact with a bottom end surface of the frame body, and fixing the bottom plate to the frame body to obtain the housing; and a second step of fixing the housing to a transport jig configured to transport the housing in a horizontally laid state. The transport jig includes a support portion that is provided so as to correspond to the bottom end surface of the frame body, and supports the housing from below. In the second step, the housing is fixed to the transport jig, with the support portion being in contact with a peripheral edge of an outer surface of the bottom plate.
A transport jig according to another embodiment is a transport jig configured to transport a housing for a photovoltaic module, and the housing accommodates a plurality of power generating elements onto which sunlight is concentrated by a plurality of condenser lenses. The housing includes a resin frame body, and a metal bottom plate that closes a bottom-side opening of the frame body and has an inner surface on which the plurality of power generating elements are disposed. The bottom plate is fixed to the frame body, with a peripheral edge of the inner surface of the bottom plate being in contact with the bottom end surface of the frame body. The transport jig includes a support portion that is provided so as to correspond to the bottom end surface of the frame body and supports the housing from below while being in contact with an peripheral edge of an outer surface of the bottom plate. The transport jig transports the housing in a horizontally laid state.
In a case where the frame body forming the housing of the concentrator photovoltaic module is formed from a resin material, rigidity of the housing is relatively low because of the resin frame body, which may cause deflection of the housing during assembling of the concentrator photovoltaic module or transportation between process steps.
Such deflection of the housing during assembling or transportation adversely affects a product tolerance and/or performance as a module, and therefore, is desired to be suppressed as much as possible.
The present disclosure has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present disclosure is to provide a technology for suppressing deflection of a housing during assembling or transportation.
According to the present disclosure, deflection that occurs in a housing during assembling or transportation can be suppressed.
First, contents of embodiments of the present disclosure are listed and described.
(1) A method according to one embodiment is a method for manufacturing a concentrator photovoltaic module including: a plurality of power generating elements onto which sunlight is concentrated by a plurality of condenser lenses; and a housing configured to accommodate the plurality of power generating elements. The housing includes a resin frame body, and a metal bottom plate that closes a bottom-side opening of the frame body and has an inner surface on which the plurality of power generating elements are disposed. The method includes: a first step of bringing a peripheral edge of the inner surface of the bottom plate into contact with a bottom end surface of the frame body, and fixing the bottom plate to the frame body to obtain the housing; and a second step of fixing the housing to a transport jig configured to transport the housing in a horizontally laid state. The transport jig includes a support portion that is provided so as to correspond to the bottom end surface of the frame body, and supports the housing from below. In the second step, the housing is fixed to the transport jig, with the support portion being in contact with a peripheral edge of an outer surface of the bottom plate.
According to the method for manufacturing the photovoltaic module of the above configuration, since the housing is fixed to the transport jig while the support portion provided so as to correspond to the bottom end surface of the frame body is in contact with the peripheral edge of the outer surface of the bottom plate, the housing can be supported by the transport jig without deflection of the resin frame body. Therefore, when the housing fixed to the transport jig is subjected to the subsequent work process, it is possible to suppress deflection that occurs in the housing during assembling and transportation between process steps.
(2) In the above method for manufacturing the photovoltaic module, in the first step, preferably, the bottom plate is adhesively fixed to the frame body. In the second step, preferably, the housing is fixed to the transport jig by means of a fixing member such that the support portion and the bottom plate are held between the fixing member and the bottom end surface of the frame body.
In this case, the fixing member presses the support portion toward the bottom plate while preventing the bottom plate and the frame body from being relatively displaced, whereby the bottom plate and the frame body can be closely adhered to each other. As a result, the bottom plate and the frame body can be appropriately adhered to each other, and the housing fixed to the transport jig can be transported to the next work process with the bottom plate and the frame body being adhered to each other.
(3) In the above method for manufacturing the concentrator photovoltaic module, preferably, the fixing member is a tapping screw that penetrates through the support portion and the bottom plate and is screwed into a hole formed at the bottom end surface of the frame body.
In this case, since the frame body is formed from resin, if a hole is formed in the frame body, the fixing member can be screwed into the hole, whereby the housing can be easily fixed to the transport jig.
Since the fixing member can be screwed into the hole from the outside of the housing, fixing and removal of the housing to and from the transport jig are facilitated.
The transport jig and the fixing member removed from the housing are reusable.
(4) In the above method for manufacturing the concentrator photovoltaic module, an output code connected to the plurality of power generating elements is provided on the outer surface of the bottom plate. In the second step, the housing may be fixed to the transport jig, with the output code being released to the outside of the support portion through a gap formed in the support portion to release the output code to the outside of the support portion.
In this case, output inspection for the photovoltaic module can be performed with the housing being fixed to the transport jig.
(5) In the above method for manufacturing the concentrator photovoltaic module, on the outer surface of the bottom plate, a code holder for holding the output code is provided so as to correspond to the gap. In the second step, the housing may be fixed to the transport jig, with the output code being released to the outside of the support portion through the gap formed in the support portion to release the output code to the outside of the support portion, and with the output code being held by the code holder while being released to the outside of the support portion.
In this case, the housing can be easily fixed to the transport jig, with the output code being released to the outside of the support portion.
(6) A transport jig according to another embodiment is a transport jig configured to transport a housing for a concentrator photovoltaic module, and the housing accommodates a plurality of power generating elements onto which sunlight is concentrated by a plurality of condenser lenses. The housing includes a resin frame body, and a metal bottom plate that closes a bottom-side opening of the frame body and has an inner surface on which the plurality of power generating elements are disposed. The bottom plate is fixed to the frame body, with a peripheral edge of the inner surface of the bottom plate being in contact with the bottom end surface of the frame body. The transport jig includes a support portion that is provided so as to correspond to the bottom end surface of the frame body and supports the housing from below while being in contact with an peripheral edge of an outer surface of the bottom plate. The transport jig transports the housing in a horizontally laid state.
According to the transport jig of the above configuration, since the housing is transported to the subsequent work process while being fixed to the transport jig, deflection that occurs in the housing during assembling and transportation between process steps can be suppressed.
(7) The above transport jig may further include a handle for handling the transport jig.
In this case, the transport jig can be moved without directly touching the bottom plate and the frame body adhered to each other.
(8) Preferably, the above transport jig further includes ball rollers that are in contact with a floor surface where the transport jig is placed, and allow the transport jig to travel freely.
In this case, transportation of the housing fixed to the transport jig is facilitated.
(9) Preferably, the above transport jig further includes: a rectangular frame-shaped body part on which the support portion is provided; and a bottom plate holding portion that is provided so as to cross the inside of the frame-shaped body part, and holds the bottom plate from below.
In this case, while the housing is fixed to the transport jig and transported between process steps, the bottom plate is held by the holding member so as not to deflect downward. This improves workability when the bottom plate is subjected to the respective process steps in the work process.
Hereinafter, preferred embodiments will be described with reference to the drawings.
At least some parts of the embodiments described below may be combined together as desired.
In
The support device 2 includes a post 21, a base 22, a biaxial drive part 23, and a horizontal shaft 24 serving as a drive shaft. The lower end of the post 21 is fixed to the base 22, and the upper end of the post 21 is provided with the biaxial drive part 23.
In
The housing 11 includes a frame body 30 formed from resin, and a bottom plate 31 closing a bottom-side opening 30a of the frame body.
The frame body 30 is formed in a rectangular cylindrical shape by use of a resin material such as PBT (Poly Butylene Terephtalate) resin loaded with glass fibers, for example.
The bottom plate 31 is a plate-shaped member formed from an aluminum alloy, for example.
A flexible printed circuit 13 is disposed on an inner surface 31a of the bottom plate 31. Cell packages 14 each holding a cell (power generating element) are mounted at predetermined positions on the flexible printed circuit 13.
In
The light receiving portions R are provided so as to respectively correspond to the condenser lenses 12f by the same number and at the same interval. Therefore, sunlight is concentrated on each light receiving portion R by the condenser lens 12f.
A shielding plate 17 is provided between the light receiving portion R and the concentrating portion 12. In the shielding plate 17, at positions corresponding to the individual condenser lenses 12f, openings 17a each corresponding to one condenser lens 12f are formed. Sunlight converged by the condenser lens 12f passes through the opening 17a. When the incident direction of sunlight is greatly deviated from the optical axis of the light receiving portion R, the light that will be concentrated to a deviated position hits the shielding plate 17.
In order to assemble the photovoltaic module 1M, first, the flexible printed circuit 13 is disposed on the inner surface 31a of the bottom plate 31 (step S1).
Next, the housing 11 is assembled (step S2), and thus obtained housing 11 is mounted and fixed to a transport jig (step S3).
In assembling the housing 11 in step S2, the peripheral edge of the inner surface 31a of the bottom plate 31 is brought into contact with a bottom end surface 30b of the frame body 30, thereby fixing the bottom plate 31 to the frame body 30. At this time, a caulking agent as an adhesive agent is applied to the peripheral edge of the inner surface 31a of the bottom plate 31 and to the bottom end surface 30b, and thereafter, the peripheral edge of the inner surface 31a of the bottom plate 31 is brought into contact with the bottom end surface 30b. Thus, the caulking agent is cured around and between the bottom plate 31 and the frame body 30, and a caulking layer adhering them to each other is formed. The bottom plate 31 and the frame body 30 are adhered and fixed to each other with this caulking layer.
A projection 30c is formed on the bottom end surface 30b of the frame body 30, and a cutout portion 31c is formed at a position, in the bottom plate 31, corresponding to the projection 30c. The projection 30c and the cutout portion 31c perform positioning between the frame body 30 and the bottom plate 31. The projection 30c and the cutout portion 31c are formed in left-right asymmetry so as to be fitted only when the direction of the frame body 30 and the direction of the bottom plate 31 are in the correct relationship. Thus, the projection 30c and the cutout portion 31c guide the frame body 30 and the bottom plate 31 so as to be combined in correct directions. Although only one projection 30c and one cutout portion 31c are shown in
The housing 11 obtained in step S2 is mounted and fixed to the transport jig 35 for transporting the housing 11 in a horizontally laid state (step S3).
The transport jig 35 includes a rectangular frame 36 (body part), a support portion 37 provided on an upper surface 36a of the frame 36, and a plurality of ball rollers 38 provided on a lower surface 36b of the frame 36.
The frame 36 is formed in a frame shape by, for example, assembling bar members, each having a C-shaped cross section and formed from an aluminum alloy, in a rectangular shape. A short side dimension of the frame 36 is a little larger than a short side dimension of the frame body 30, and a long side dimension of the frame 36 is a little smaller than a long side dimension of the frame body 30.
The frame 36 is further provided with a handle 35a for handling the transport jig 35 to which the housing 11 is fixed.
The support portion 37 is provided over almost the entire periphery of the frame 36, and supports the housing 11 from below. The support portion 37 includes a bracket 40 fixed to the upper surface 36a of the frame 36, and a pad 41 that is fixed to the upper surface of the bracket 40 and is in contact with the bottom plate 31 of the housing 11.
The bracket 40 is a plate-shaped member formed from an aluminum alloy. A part, of the bracket 40, formed on each short side of the frame 36 extends along the short side and protrudes outward with respect to the outer surface of the frame 36. A part, of the bracket 40, formed on each long side of the frame 36 extends along the long side and protrudes inward with respect to the inner surface of the frame 36.
The pad 41 is a member formed from resin, and is fixed to the upper surface of an end portion of the bracket 40. Therefore, a part, of the pad 41, formed on each short side of the frame 36 is disposed outward with respect to the outer surface of the frame 36. Meanwhile, a part, of the pad 41, formed on each long side of the frame 36 is disposed inward with respect to the inner surface of the frame 36.
The housing 11 is fixed to the transport jig 35 with the bottom plate 31 of the housing 11 being in contact with the upper surface of the pad 41.
Since the pad 41 is formed from resin, the bottom plate 31 is prevented from being damaged by the pad 41 when the pad 41 comes into contact with the bottom plate 31.
When the transport jig 35 is placed on a floor surface, the plurality of ball rollers 38 come into contact with the floor surface and allow the transport jig 35 to travel freely. This facilitates transportation of the housing 11 fixed to the transport jig 35.
In step S3, first, the pad 41 of the support portion 37 is brought into contact with the bottom plate 31 of the housing 11.
The pad 41 of the support portion 37 is provided so as to correspond to the bottom end surface 30b of the frame body 30. That is, the pad 41 is formed along almost the entire periphery of the bottom end surface 30b of the frame body 30.
Therefore, when the pad 41 of the support portion 37 is brought into contact with the bottom plate 31 of the housing 11, the pad 41 comes into contact with almost the entire periphery of the edge of the outer surface 31b of the bottom plate 31.
A pair of combiner boxes 45 and output cables 46 extending from the respective combiner boxes 45 are provided on the outer surface 31b of the bottom plate 31. The output cables 46 are cables (output codes) for extracting power outputted from the plurality of cells disposed on the inner surface 31a.
A part, of the support portion 37, provided on each short side of the frame 36 has gaps 47 for releasing the output cables 46 to the outside of the support portion 37.
Therefore, when the pad 41 of the support portion 37 is brought into contact with the bottom plate 31 of the housing 11, the tips of the output cables 46 are released to the outside through the gaps 47.
Thus, in the subsequent work process, output inspection for the photovoltaic module 1M can be performed with the housing 11 being fixed to the transport jig 35.
Next, fixing members 50 are mounted to fix the housing 11 to the transport jig 35.
Each fixing member 50 is a tapping screw, for example. Two fixing members 50 are mounted to the part, of the support portion 37, on each short side of the frame 36.
As shown in
The support portion 37 and the bottom plate 31 have a through-hole 37a and a through-hole 31d, respectively, at a position corresponding to the hole 30d of the frame body 30.
The fixing member 50 is inserted into the through-hole 37a of the support portion 37 and the through-hole 31d of the bottom plate 31 and is screwed and fastened into the hole 30d formed at the bottom end surface 30b of the frame body 30.
The fixing member 50 being screwed into the hole 30d allows relative positioning between the housing 11 and the transport jig 35.
Since the fixing member 50 is screwed and fastened into the hole 30d, the support portion 37 and the bottom plate 31 are held between a head 50a of the fixing member 50 and the bottom end surface 30b of the frame body 30.
Thus, the fixing member 50 presses the pad 41 of the support portion 37 toward the peripheral edge of the outer surface 31b of the bottom plate 31.
In this way, the fixing member 50 fixes the housing 11 to the transport jig 35 while the support portion 37 and the bottom plate 31 are held between the fixing member 50 and the bottom end surface 30b of the frame body 30.
In this case, the fixing member 50 presses the pad 41 toward the peripheral edge of the outer surface 31b of the bottom plate 31 while preventing the bottom plate 31 and the frame body 30 from being relatively displaced, whereby the peripheral edge of the inner surface 31a of the bottom plate 31 can be closely adhered to the bottom end surface 30b of the frame body 30. As a result, the bottom plate 31 and the frame body 30 can be appropriately adhered to each other.
Since the fixing member 50 prevents relative displacement between the bottom plate 31 and the frame body 30, even when adhesion between the bottom plate 31 and the frame body 30 is not completely finished because the caulking agent between the bottom plate 31 and the frame body 30 is not yet dried, the housing 11 can be transported to be advanced to the next work process.
In the present embodiment, the fixing member 50 is a tapping screw, and the frame body 30 is made from resin. Therefore, if the hole 30d is formed in the frame body 30, the fixing member 50 can be screwed into the hole 30d. Thus, the housing 11 can be easily fixed to the transport jig 35 without the necessity of, for example, embedding a nut or the like in the frame body 30 or forming a screw in the frame body 30.
Since the fixing member 50 can be screwed into the hole 30d from the outside of the housing 11, fixing and removal of the housing 11 with respect to the transport jig 35 are facilitated.
The transport jig 35 and the fixing member 50 removed from the housing 11 are reusable.
Referring back to
The housing 11 fixed to the transport jig 35 proceeds to the next step, i.e., an inspective step (step S4). In the inspection step, withstand voltage inspection for the plurality of cells and the like disposed on the inner surface 31a, airtightness inspection between the bottom plate 31 and the frame body 30, and the like are performed (step S4).
Thereafter, the housing 11 fixed to the transport jig 35 proceeds to a step of mounting the concentrating portion 12 (
Then, the housing 11 fixed to the transport jig 35 proceeds to an output inspection step (step S6), where an output inspection regarding the photovoltaic module 1M is performed.
Thereafter, the housing 11 fixed to the transport jig 35 proceeds to a transport jig removal step, where the housing 11 is removed from the transport jig 35 (step S7).
Thus, the photovoltaic module 1M is completed.
As described above, according to the assembling process (manufacturing method) for the photovoltaic module 1M of the present embodiment, since the housing 11 is fixed to the transport jig 35 while the support portion 37 provided so as to correspond to the bottom end surface 30b of the frame body 30 is in contact with the peripheral edge of the outer surface 31b of the bottom plate 31, the housing 11 can be supported (reinforced) by the transport jig 35 so as to prevent deflection of the resin frame body 30. Therefore, when the housing 11 fixed to the transport jig 35 is subjected to the subsequent work process, it is possible to suppress deflection that occurs in the housing 11 during assembling and transportation between process steps.
Since the transport jig 35 of the present embodiment is provided with the handle 35a for handling the transport jig 35, the transport jig 35 can be moved without directly touching the bottom plate 31 and the frame body 30 adhered to each other.
Since the transport jig 35 of the present embodiment is provided with the ball rollers 38 in contact with the floor surface, the transport jig 35 can be freely traveled. The transport jig 35 capable of traveling with the ball rollers 38 allows the frame 36 to be formed not by a bar member but by a plate member, whereby the degree of freedom in designing the transport jig 35 can be increased.
The transport jig 35 of this embodiment is provided with a holding member 60 for holding the bottom plate 31 so as not to deflect toward the transport jig 35.
The holding member 60 includes: an elongated holding plate 61 that crosses the inside of the rectangular frame 36 and connects the long sides of the frame 36; and protection pads 62 disposed between the holding plate 61 and the bottom plate 31.
While the housing 11 is fixed to the transport jig 35 and transported between process steps, the bottom plate 31 is held by the holding member 60 so as not to deflect downward. This improves workability when the bottom plate 31 is subjected to the respective steps in the work process.
If a column member 30e is disposed so as to cross the bottom-side opening 30a of the frame body 30, the bottom plate 31 can be held more reliably between the column member 30e and the holding member 60.
Furthermore, tips of output cables 46 are released to the outside through gaps 47. In this embodiment, clips 65 (code holders) for holding the output cables 46 on the outer surface 31b are disposed on the outer surface 31b of the bottom plate 31.
Thus, the connector 46a can be positioned with respect to the bottom plate 31 (housing 11).
Therefore, when the pad 41 of the support portion 37 is brought into contact with the bottom plate 31 of the housing 11, the connector 46a of each output cable 46 is released to the outside through the gap 47, and the output cable 46 is held by the clip 65 with the connector 46a being released to the outside through the gap 47. Thus, the housing 11 can be fixed to the transport jig 35.
Thus, the housing 11 is easily fixed to the transport jig 35 with the connector 46a of each output cable 46 being released to the outside through the gap 47.
Furthermore, when the output inspection is performed with the housing 11 being fixed to the transport jig 35, the connector 46a is positioned with respect to the housing 11, and therefore can be easily connected to an inspection device for the output inspection.
While a clip is used for holding the output cable 46 in the present embodiment, any means that can hold the output cable 46, such as a band that is fixed to the outer surface 31b and holds the output cable 46 in a removable manner, may be used.
It should be noted that the embodiments disclosed herein are merely illustrative and not restrictive in all aspects.
In the above embodiments, the hole 30d is formed in the short-side portion of the frame body 30 at the bottom end surface 30b, and the short-side portion of the bottom end surface 30b is fixed to the transport jig 35 by use of the fixing member 50. However, the hole 30d may be formed in the long-side portion of the frame body 30, and the long-side portion of the bottom end surface 30b may be fixed to the transport jig 35 by use of the fixing member 50.
In the above embodiments, a tapping screw is used as the fixing member 50. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, a general bolt can also be used as the fixing member 50 by embedding a nut in the frame body 30 or forming a screw in the frame body 30. However, using the tapping screw as in the present embodiment facilitates fixing of the housing 11 to the transport jig 35.
The scope of the present disclosure is defined by the scope of the claims rather than by the meaning described above, and is intended to include meaning equivalent to the scope of the claims and all modifications within the scope.
