INTERCONNECTOR, SOLAR BATTERY STRING USING SUCH INTERCONNECTOR, METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SUCH SOLAR BATTERY STRING AND SOLAR BATTERY MODULE USING SUCH SOLAR BATTERY STRING

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/043562

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

An interconnector is provided with a strip-shaped conductive member (3) which electrically connects electrodes of adjacent solar battery cells. The conductive member includes a stress relief section (X1), which is planar and has a notch to constitute a obtuse angle at a side end section or has a linear side end section. Since stress due to difference between the thermal expansion coefficient of the interconnector and that of the solar battery cell is remarkably relaxed by such constitution, warping generated by the solar battery cell is reduced and reliability in connection between the interconnector and the solar battery cell is improved.
