DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The embodiments of the present disclosure are described below in detail. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings. The same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout the drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary, and are only used to explain the present disclosure, and cannot be construed as a limit for the present disclosure.

[0021] FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a road surface power generation assembly having double layer glass according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The road surface power generation assembly according to the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a substrate 1, a solar cell chip 2 and a glass layer.

[0022] The glass layer includes an upper glass layer 4 and a lower glass layer 5. The upper glass layer 4 and the lower glass layer 5 are secured through a sheet adhesive layer 3. The solar cell chip 2 is arranged between the lower glass layer 5 and the substrate 1. The sheet adhesive layer 3 may be made of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), polyvinyl butyral (PVB), polyolefin elastomer (POE) or thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO). In order to meet a strength requirement, the thickness of each of the upper glass layer 4 and the lower glass layer 5 ranges from 3 mm to 15 mm, and the thickness is preferably 10 mm. The thickness of the sheet adhesive layer ranges from 0.1 mm to 2 mm.

[0023] In the road surface power generation assembly according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the glass layer is provided to effectively protect the solar cell chip, thereby improving tolerance of a road surface on which the road surface power generation assembly is arranged. The provided double layer glass can be bonded through hot pressing, to effectively prevent from breaking and falling off, thereby improving the security. In addition, the double layer glass are connected through the sheet adhesive layer, which achieves a soft connection, thereby improving toughness of the glass, and improving a cushioning effect.

[0024] The road surface power generation assembly according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is installed on a road surface. The substrate 1 is arranged on the road surface, and the solar cell chip 2 is arranged between the substrate 1 and the lower glass layer 5. In an embodiment, the solar cell chip 2 may be arranged on the substrate 1, and is arranged on a side of the substrate 1 facing towards the lower glass layer 5. Alternatively, the solar cell chip 2 may be arranged on the lower glass layer 5, and is arranged on a side of the lower glass layer 5 facing towards the substrate 1. The solar cell chip 2 may be attached and fixed to the substrate 1 or the lower glass layer 5 through butyl sealant or in other manners.

[0025] In order to prevent the solar cell chip 2 from being damaged due to a pressure of the glass layer on the solar cell chip 2, a closed cavity 6 is arranged between the substrate 1 and the glass layer in an embodiment. Further, the cavity 6 is filled with inert gas. The inert gas is provided to prevent water vapor from entering the cavity 6, and thus prevent performance of the solar cell chip 2 from being affected by the water vapor. In this embodiment, the height of the cavity 6 ranges from 8 mm to 20 mm, and the height of the cavity 6 is preferably 12.5 mm.

[0026] The above closed cavity 6 may be formed in the following manner. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, sealant 7 is provided at an edge of an area between the substrate 1 and the lower glass layer 5, and structural adhesive sealant 8 is provided at an edge of an area between the substrate 1 and the upper glass layer 4. The sealant 7 may be butyl sealant, and the structural adhesive sealant 8 may be silicone structural adhesive sealant 8.

[0027] In order to improve a nighttime display effect of the road surface power generation assembly, a light strip 9 may be arranged between the lower glass layer 5 and the structural adhesive sealant 8.

[0028] Further, an anti-slip layer is arranged on an upper surface of the upper glass layer 4, and the anti-slip layer is formed through acid etching. A hardened coating is arranged on the anti-slip layer, to raise abrasion hardness of the upper glass layer 4.

[0029] Structure, characteristics and effects of the present disclosure are described above in detail based on the embodiments shown in the drawings. The embodiments described above are only preferred embodiments of the present disclosure. The present disclosure is not limited to the scope of implementation as shown by the drawings. Any changes, equivalents and modifications made to the embodiments based on the essence of the present disclosure without departing from the spirit of the specification and the drawings should fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
