Abstract:
An apparatus for patterning a ribbon includes a holding device, a heating device, and an embossing device. The holding device is utilized for positioning the ribbon on a surface of a solar cell. The first solder layer contacts the solar cell. The heating device is utilized for melting the ribbon for string tabbing on the solar cell. The embossing device is utilized for contacting the melted ribbon to form a pattern on the ribbon. A surface energy between the ribbon and the solar cell is greater than a surface energy between the ribbon and the embossing device.
Abstract:
A solar module is provided and includes a support element, a frame body, a photoelectric conversion module, and a protection element. An accommodating space is formed in a region surrounded by the frame body. The photoelectric conversion module is located in the accommodating space. The support element extends past the photoelectric conversion module and is connected to the frame body. The protection element is located on the photoelectric conversion module, and is located in the accommodating space.
