Abstract
Provided is a photovoltaic cell assembly that effectively collects light and dissipates heat to improve electricity generating efficiency. The photovoltaic cell assembly includes a light collecting unit configured to collect sunlight incident from a Fresnel lens, a cell receiver configured to convert the sunlight collected by the light collecting unit to an electrical signal, a heat dissipation plate configured to support the light collecting unit and the cell receiver and fixed to an inner surface of a housing, and a heat dissipation block disposed on an outer surface of the housing and coupled to the heat dissipation plate with the housing interposed between the heat dissipation plate and the heat dissipation block.
Claims29
A photovoltaic cell assembly comprising:
- a light collecting unit configured to collect sunlight incident from a Fresnel lens;
- a cell receiver configured to convert the sunlight collected by the light collecting unit to an electrical signal;
- a heat dissipation plate configured to support the light collecting unit and the cell receiver and fixed to an inner surface of a housing;
- and
- a heat dissipation block disposed on an outer surface of the housing and coupled to the heat dissipation plate with the housing interposed between the heat dissipation plate and the heat dissipation block.
A photovoltaic cell assembly comprising:
- a light collecting unit configured to collect sunlight incident from a Fresnel lens;
- a cell receiver configured to convert the sunlight collected by the light collecting unit to an electrical signal;
- a heat dissipation plate configured to support the light collecting unit and the cell receiver;
- and
- a heat dissipation block integrally formed with the heat dissipation plate and disposed outside a housing,
- wherein the heat dissipation plate and the heat dissipation block each includes a body and a plurality of heat dissipation fins protruding from the body, and a size of the heat dissipation plate is smaller than a size of the heat dissipation block, and the heat dissipation plate is fitted in an opening having a size corresponding to the size of the heat dissipation plate and formed in the housing such that the heat dissipation block is fixed to the housing.
A photovoltaic cell assembly comprising:
- a light collecting unit configured to collect sunlight incident from a Fresnel lens;
- a cell receiver configured to convert the sunlight collected by the light collecting unit to an electrical signal;
- a heat sink block including an upper body configured to support the light collecting unit and the cell receiver, and a lower body integrally formed with the upper body and disposed outside a housing;
- and
- a heat pipe coupled to the heat sink block and provided with a plurality of heat dissipation fins that are spaced a constant distance from one other and are fitted in and fixed to the heat pipe,
- wherein a size of the upper body is smaller than a size of the lower body, and the upper body is fitted in an opening having a size corresponding to the size of the upper body and formed in the housing such that the heat sink block is fixed to the housing.
