Patent number: 9381726Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for packaging secondary optical element. By coating optical glue on the bottom surface of the secondary optical element and on the substrate and by hardening individually, as well as using the technical characteristics of flipping the substrate and the fixture, the secondary optical element can fall naturally and be positioned above an optoelectric device such as a solar cell or a light-emitting diode. No additional fastener is required for supporting the secondary optical element.Type: GrantFiled: August 5, 2014Date of Patent: July 5, 2016Assignee: Atomic Energy Council—Institute of Nuclear Energy ResearchInventors: Yueh-Mu Lee, Zun-Hao Shih, Yi-Ping Liang, Hwa-Yuh Shin, Hwen-Fen Hong

Patent number: 9178094Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for packaging solar cell receivers having secondary optical elements. The present invention adopts a mold having mold cavities with special shapes. By filling mold cavities with optical encapsulant, the substrate containing solar cells is placed upside down towards the mold. Then the solar cells are immersed into the optical encapsulant before curing. Then, the cured optical encapsulant has the characteristics of the secondary optical elements and thus can be used as secondary optical elements such as spherical lenses. Meanwhile, the packaging of the solar cells is completed as well. The overall process requires only one curing process, which reduces the packaging time substantially.Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 2014Date of Patent: November 3, 2015Assignee: Atomic Energy Council—Institute of Nuclear Energy ResearchInventors: Hwen-Fen Hong, Zun-Hao Shih, Yueh-Mu Lee, Yi-Ping Liang, Hwa-Yuh Shin

Publication number: 20150194554Abstract: The present invention relates to a structure of concentrating solar cell module with reduced height, which includes multiple partitions and reflection mirrors. The solar cell receiver is attach to a surface of the partition and rotated by 90 degrees. After the reflection leans against a surface of another partition, the light concentrated by the concentrating lens can be redirected from vertical incidence to horizontal incidence. Then the redirected light is focused at the 90-degree rotated solar cell receiver for performing energy conversion. This structure avoids the limitation of the concentrating solar cell module by the focal distance of the concentrating lens. Thereby, the height of the module is reduced substantially; the volume of the module becomes thinner and the weight thereof becomes lighter and thus facilitating installation and transportation.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 7, 2014Publication date: July 9, 2015Applicant: ATOMIC ENERGY COUNCIL-INSTITUTE OF NUCLEAR ENERGY RESEARCHInventors: YI-PING LIANG, YI-YA HUANG, HWEN-FEN HONG

Publication number: 20150179854Abstract: A method of packaging ball lends of a solar collector contains step of coating optical clear adhesives on colloid layers twice, and the optical clear adhesives are solidified so that a solar cell, plural gold wires, and an electric circuit are packaged, thus eliminating use of a conventional support component, lowering weight of the solar collector, and simplifying the solar collector. Moreover, a dam is applied to absorb stray light so as to enhance light absorption of the solar cell and working efficiency of the solar collector.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 19, 2013Publication date: June 25, 2015Applicant: ATOMIC ENERGY COUNCIL - INSTITUTE OF NUCLEAR ENERGY RESEARCHInventors: YUEH-MU LEE, ZUN-HAO SHIH, YI-PING LIANG, HWA-YUH SHIN, HWEN-FEN HONG

Publication number: 20150096608Abstract: The present invention relates to a fixing apparatus for ball lens used for facilitating installation of concentrator solar cell receiver module. The present invention can finish installing the fixing base for ball lens at a time and positioning the ball lens rapidly and accurately. It can also control the distance between the ball lens and the solar cell excellently. In addition, the present invention further has the function of sheltering the circuit of concentrator solar cell receiver module. When off-axis illumination of sunlight occurs, direct illumination of sunlight on, and consequently high-temperature burnout of, the circuit can be avoided. Thereby, the lifetime of the circuit can be extended effectively and the probability of failure can be reduced as well.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 8, 2013Publication date: April 9, 2015Applicant: ATOMIC ENERGY COUNCIL - INSTITUTE OF NUCLEAR ENERGY RESEARCHInventors: YUEH-MU LEE, ZUN-HAO SHIH, YI-PING LIANG, HWA-YUH SHIN, HWEN-FEN HONG

Publication number: 20150047821Abstract: The present relates to a heating device structure, which comprises a heat conducting member to mate with the heat dissipation fins of an electronic device. Thereby, during the packaging process of the electronic device, the effect of multi-point heating can be achieved by combining the heat conducting member and the fins. Accordingly, heating can be performed rapidly to reach the soldering temperature. Without the influence of the structure of heat dissipation fins, the heating process will not be performed at low efficiency.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 14, 2013Publication date: February 19, 2015Applicant: ATOMIC ENERGY COUNCIL - INSTITUTE OF NUCLEAR ENERGY RESEARCHInventors: YUEH-MU LEE, HWA-YUH SHIN, ZUN-HAO SHIH, YI-PING LIANG, HWEN-FEN HONG

Publication number: 20150021842Abstract: A fixture for attaching a homogenizer of a concentrator solar receiver is revealed. By fixing bodies and a sleeve being connected to or separated from each other, a homogenizer is attached firmly with adhesive in an inverted cone-shaped space. Moreover, an installation position and the adhesion height of the homogenizer can be controlled precisely. Thus time and labor consumed in assembling the homogenizer are dramatically reduced and good adhesion performance is achieved.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2013Publication date: January 22, 2015Inventors: HWA-YUH SHIN, YI-PING LIANG, HUNG-SHENG CHIU, HWEN-FEN HONG

Publication number: 20140060647Abstract: The present invention relates to a concentrator-type photovoltaic receiver having homogenizer with fixing structure. The resent invention improves the structure of the homogenizer, which comprises a homogenizing part providing homogenizing function and a supporting part providing supporting and fixing function. The homogenizing part and the supporting part are formed integrally. The supporting part is a straight pillar. The user can bond the supporting part to the insulating substrate via glue and thus preventing the homogenizing part therein from collapse and contamination by dirt. Accordingly, good quality and lifetime can be maintained.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 5, 2012Publication date: March 6, 2014Inventors: Yueh-Mu Lee, Yi-Ping Liang, Hwen-Fen Hong, Hwa-Yuh Shin

Publication number: 20140048134Abstract: A concentrator solar receiver with an improved homogenizer is revealed. A homogenizer used in a concentrator solar module is improved. Instead of a smooth flat surface, a bottom surface of the homogenizer can be a positively curved surface, a conic solid, or a truncated tapered structure. Moreover, the bottom surface can be a rough surface. Thus not only the glue-overflow problem occurred during adhesion of the homogenizer to the solar cell can be solved, but also the possibility of air bubbles remaining between the glue and the homogenizer is reduced. Therefore the yield rate of a concentrator solar module is improved and the service life of the concentrator solar module is prolonged.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 16, 2012Publication date: February 20, 2014Applicant: ATOMIC ENERGY COUNCIL - INSTITUTE OF NUCLEAR ENERGY RESEARCHInventors: YI-PING LIANG, HWA-YUH SHIN, HWEN-FEN HONG
