SOLAR BATTERY PANEL Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC H01L31/42 

FIELD: electrical engineering; solar-to-electric energy conversion.

SUBSTANCE: proposed solar battery panel has flat frame, net sheet elastically tightened thereon and made of orthogonally intersecting strings with film substrate attached by means of fasteners at their intersection points; substrate mounts photoelectric converters secured thereon by means of adhesive; each fastener is made in the form of coaxially aligned pairs of washers. The latter have longitudinal projections and are provided with two holes for passing length of flexible material through them to enclose both washers and strings at their intersection points and to secure them in position. One of washers is mounted on film substrate face and other one, on its rear end. Longitudinal projection of washer rests on string. Such reliable fastening of substrate to strings through substrate-mounted washers enhances panel resistance to mechanical and thermomechanical thrusts.

EFFECT: reduced specific mass of panel, enhanced reparability, facilitated substrate attachment to frame-mounted net sheet.
