Solar panel device

A solar panel device which is attached to a lamp tube of a linear fluorescent lamp having high-temperature regions on both sides and a low-temperature region between the high-temperature regions or a lamp tube of a linear LED lamp having a low-temperature region as a whole to construct a power-generating lamp, comprising:

• one or more solar panels for receiving light from a rear surface of the lamp tube to generate an electromotive force, which comprise a plurality of unit solar panels having a flat band-like shape, wherein the unit solar panels are arranged with a size range of ⅕ to ½ of an outer circumference of the lamp tube in a cross-sectional view, and edges of the neighboring unit solar panels are connected so as to be foldable and extendable,
• a power supply line that outputs the electromotive force of the solar panel;
• and
• a tubular base holder having a tube shape in which the plurality of unit solar panels are arranged in a folded manner to form a part of polygonal shape and are attached to an inner surface or an outer surface thereof in a length direction, the tubular base holder being externally fitted to cover the lamp tube, and holds the solar panels so that a part of a light-receiving surface of each unit solar panel comes in contact with the surface of the lamp tube and the remaining portion of the light-receiving surface is located with a distance of 10 mm or less from the surface of the lamp tube or so that the light-receiving surface of each unit solar panel is located with a distance of 10 mm or less from the surface of the lamp tube.
