Abstract: A method for plugging a subset of cells of a honeycomb structure that includes: covering a first end face of the honeycomb structure with a mask that comprises a body and a plurality of openings, wherein the plurality of openings of the mask is coincident with a plurality of cells of the honeycomb structure; providing a plenum, a movable plunger and a flow plate; positioning a cylinder between the honeycomb structure and the plenum; dispensing a plugging material into the plenum; moving the plunger toward the flow plate with a force to push the plugging material through the flow plate into the cylinder, the moving generating a pressure in the plenum and the cylinder that forces the plugging material through the mask into the plurality of cells of the honeycomb structure to a predetermined depth; and determining the pressure within the cylinder during the moving of the plunger.

Abstract: A PV module frame, includes a module recess, a sidewall vertical to the module recess and a bottom portion vertical to the sidewall. The bottom portion extends from the bottom of the sidewall along the opposite direction of the recess of the module recess. A PV module having the PV module frame and a PV module installation system for installing the PV module onto a support, wherein the bottom portions of the adjacent solar cell assemblies are socket jointed and fixed to at least one installation beam which is fixed to the support. The beneficial effect of the present invention is that: fast installation of a PV module could be realized only by using the improved frame and one installation beam, Which reduces the quantity of the members in an installation system module and makes the installation more efficient, easier and more economical.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a PV module frame, comprising: an module recess, a sidewall vertical to the module recess and a bottom portion vertical to the sidewall. Said bottom portion extends from the bottom of said sidewall along the opposite direction of the recess of said module recess. The present invention also discloses a PV module having said PV module frame and further discloses a PV module installation system for installing said PV module onto a support, wherein the bottom portions of the adjacent solar cell assemblies are socket jointed and fixed to at least one installation beam which is fixed to said support. The beneficial effect of the present invention is that: fast installation of a PV module could be realized only by using the improved frame and one installation beam, which reduces the quantity of the members in an installation system module and makes the installation more efficient, easier and more economical.
