  • Patent number: 7002813
    Abstract: An arrangement which has a panel-like electrical/electronic module, such as a solar power module, and a connection unit which are electrically connected to one another. The module and the connection unit each have an essentially flat printed conductor structure with connecting sections. The printed conductor structures are situated in parallel planes. The connecting sections are rigid electrical conductor sections and are bent out from the planes of the printed conductor structures of the connection unit and the module. The connecting sections of the connection unit are situated corresponding to the arrangement of the connecting sections of the module so that for the connection unit connected to the module each connecting section of the module is electrically connected to a respective connecting section of the connection unit and these adjoin one another in one section situated in a different spatial position than that of the planes of the printed conductor structures.

  • Publication number: 20040047118
    Abstract: An arrangement comprising a panel-like electrical/electronic module 7 having a flat surface with openly contactable connecting sections AS as part of an essentially flat printed conductor structure for the electrical connection of the module 7, and comprising a connection unit 1 having electrical/electronic elements D located on a printed conductor structure 2 situated in a plane parallel to the printed conductor structure of the module 7 and provided with means for contacting connecting sections of the module, so that the module is electrically connectable via the connection unit, characterized in that the means for contacting the connecting sections AS of the module 7 are bent out from the plane of the printed conductor structure 2, and a portion of the connecting sections AA representing the printed conductor structure and the connecting sections AS of the module 7 are rigid electrical conductor sections AS which can be bent out of the plane of the printed conductor structure of the module 7, the connectin
