WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/080027
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a flexible thermoelectric module and, more specifically, to a flexible thermoelectric module used in the shape of a curved surface. A flexible thermoelectric module used in the shape of a curved surface according to the present invention comprises: a substrate provided in a plate shape transformable into the shape of a curved surface; a plurality of thermoelectric devices comprising an N-type semiconductor and a P-type semiconductor disposed so as to form a two-dimensional array on the substrate; and a plurality of electrodes connecting the N-type semiconductor and P-type semiconductor, wherein the plurality of thermoelectric devices form a thermoelectric line comprising thermoelectric devices consecutively connected by means of the electrodes and forming a line, wherein an extension direction of the thermoelectric line can be closer to a direction perpendicular to a curving direction for transformation into the shape of a curved surface than the curving direction.
