[0032] The present disclosure is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and the embodiments.

[0033] The present disclosure provides a solar cell assembly, comprising a front plate, a front glue film layer 2, a cell piece array 3, a back glue film layer 4 and a back plate 5 which are sequentially stacked, the front plate is commonly a transparent body, so as to enhance transmittance, light rays are enabled to penetrate through the front plate to be irradiated onto the cell piece array, and cell assembly power is improved. Specifically, glass may be adopted:

[0034] It is specifically as shown in FIG. 4 in the embodiment that the glass 1, the front glue film layer 2, the cell piece array 3, the back glue film layer 4 and the back plate 5 are sequentially arranged from top to bottom. As shown in FIG. 1, a side, deviating from the cell piece array 3, of the glass 1 is provided with one or more light scattering units 11, wherein the light scattering units 11 are of a sunken structure formed when the side, deviating from the cell piece array 3, of the glass 1 is sunken inwards towards a side, adjacent to the cell piece array 3, of the glass 1. Herein, one side of the glass refers to one side of the glass itself, and is not a side of a film layer arranged on one side of the glass.

[0035] By changing a shape or a structure of the side, deviating from the cell piece array, of the glass 1, a light receiving area of the glass 1 is increased, the light scattering units 11 are not needed to correspond to a non-gate line portion of a cell piece, and a requirement for type correspondence of the glass 1 and the cell piece is not high. The light rays enter the cell piece array 3 after being scattered through the sunken structure on the side, deviating from the cell piece array 3, of the glass 1, sunlight is fully utilized, and it can be guaranteed that the whole cell piece array 3 all receives light and generates power, and the cell assembly power is effectively improved. By adopting the solar cell assembly of the present disclosure, the sunlight in various time periods of one day may also be effectively utilized without adopting a sun chasing system, and cell assembly installing cost is lowered.

[0036] As shown in FIG. 2 to FIG. 3, H in the front plate of the present embodiment is a thickness of the glass 1, W is a width of the glass 1, L is a length of the glass 1, H.sub.1 in the light scattering units 11 is a maximum length of the sunken structure, W.sub.1 is a width of the sunken structure, and L.sub.1 is a length of the sunken structure. In the present embodiment, a ratio of the maximum depth H.sub.1 of the sunken structure of the light scattering units 11 to the thickness H of the glass is (1 to 100) to (1 to 2), further, the maximum depth H.sub.1 of the sunken structure of the light scattering units 11 is 0.03 mm to 10 mm, and the width W.sub.1 of the sunken structure is 0.3 mm to 50 mm, and the relationship between the length L.sub.1 of the sunken structure and the length L of the glass is L-60 mmL.sub.1L-10 mm.

[0037] The depth of the sunken structure of the present disclosure is at a millimeter level, an anti-reflection effect in the natural environment is stable, self-cleaning performance is better, and a surface is easy to clean. Different from a nanometer level depth of the sunken structure, the nanometer level sunken depth is a very small ion corrosion pit in essence, an anti-reflection contribution of a fine corrosion pit to light is small, the fine corrosion pit is prone to be gradually corroded and ground flat in an environment of sun scorching, rain drenching, wind and sand, and then the anti-reflection effect is reduced; and dirt and other impurities accumulated in a groove of a nanometer structure are not removed easily, and a utilizing rare of the light is further affected.

[0038] As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, in certain embodiments, the light scattering units 11 are of a sunken structure extending in a length direction of the glass, an orthographic projection of the light scattering units 11 on a plane where a light receiving surface of the cell piece array 3 is located is rectangular. Specifically, the plurality of light scattering units 11 are distributed at intervals in a width direction of the glass, adjacent light scattering units 11 are connected in a circular arc transition manner, and the structure formed due to connection of circular arc transition is raised relative to a plane where the glass is located. Further, the plurality of light scattering units 11 are continuously distributed at equal intervals in the width direction of the glass 1, and a distance D.sub.1 between edges of the adjacent light scattering units 11 is 0.03 mm to 5 mm, D.sub.1 is actually a width of a bump structure 13 of circular arc transition. Further, the sunken structure and the bump structure 13 jointly form a wave shape extending in the width direction of the glass 1, that is, a wave line may be seen from a cross section as shown in FIG. 3.

[0039] Specifically, the solar cell assembly further comprises an installing outer frame 6, edges all around the glass 1/the front glue film layer 2/the cell piece array 3/the back glue film layer 4/the back plate 5 are coated with the installing outer frame 6 to seal the solar cell assembly, and the side, deviating from the cell piece array, of the glass 1 located in the installing outer frame 6 is a plane, and connection of the installing outer frame 6 and the edges all around the front plate/the front glue film layer 2/the cell piece array 3/the back glue film layer 4/the back plate 5 is in the prior art and is not repeated herein. Further, the side, deviating from the cell piece array, of the glass 1 of the front plate is provided with an encapsulation edge 12 arranged correspondingly to the installing outer frame, and a distance D.sub.2 away from four edges of the glass 1 is 5 mm to 30 mm.

[0040] As shown in FIG. 4, the side, facing the cell piece array 3, of the glass 1 of the front plate in the present disclosure, namely a light receiving surface facing the cell piece array 3, may be a smooth surface or a sueded surface (such as frosted glass), the sueded surface commonly refers to a surface with certain roughness. For example, the sueded surface may be a micrometer-level or nanometer-level concave-convex structure, does not have obvious concavity or convexity through unaided viewing, and shows an irregular concave-convex structure only under a viewing device with accuracy at a micrometer or nanometer level. And specifically, a maximum depth of the concave and/or convex structure is far lower than the maximum depth H.sub.1 of the sunken structure of the present application. The other side, namely the side, deviating from the cell piece array 3, of the glass 1, faces sun. Further, a material of the back plate 5 may be the same with or different from a material of the front plate.

[0041] When sunlight penetrates through the solar cell glass 1 and is irradiated onto one side of the solar cell piece array 3, the solar cell piece array 3 generates a photovoltaic effect, not all the sunlight irradiated onto the cell piece array 3 is utilized, and much of the sunlight is reflected by the cell piece array 3. When the light reflected out of the cell piece array 3 is reflected to one side of the light scattering units 11 of the sunken structure, the light is reflected and scattered onto one side of the cell piece array 3 again, and participates in power generation again. The process is repeatedly performed heaps of times, therefore, it is guaranteed that the whole silicon wafer can utilize incident light rays very well, that the light receiving area of the glass 1 is increased, and that the assembly power is improved. By adopting the solar cell assembly of the present disclosure, sunlight in various time periods of one day may also be effectively utilized without adopting a sun chasing system, and cell assembly installing cost is lowered.

[0042] Unlike the present disclosure, CN 101677112A in the prior art is a light concentrating principle of convex type light concentrating glass in common use in the field, the light rays are focused on one point by penetrating through the glass. And in actual production, on the one hand, it is needed to consider that convex patterns of the glass need to correspond to a cell piece between fine gate lines (a width of a strip-shaped reflecting light concentrating surface is 0.6 mm to 1.2 mm); on the other hand, correspondence of types of the glass and the cell piece needs to be considered, it is avoided that deviation exists during layout and arrangement of the assembly, the light rays are focused on the gate lines, and then are reflected, and then there are negative effects on improvement of the assembly power. The technical solution of the present disclosure applies a light scattering principle, the light rays are uniform, the light scattering units arranged on the glass enable the front plate to increase an effective reflecting and light scattering surface area on the light receiving surface, a utilizing rate of solar energy is increased, and therefore, the output power of the cell assembly is improved, technical problems existing in CN 101677112A in the prior art are solved, and meanwhile, an experiment proves that the output power is improved by 3% compared with CN 101677112A in the prior art.

[0043] The solar cell assembly disclosed by the present disclosure may improve the output power thereof. The solar cell assembly may be installed on a roof of a building or an outer wall of the building, may also be installed in an open space such as desert, and further may be installed on a ship, a satellite, a spacecraft and the like.
