Title: Innovations by Inventor Kai Wu
Introduction
Kai Wu is a talented inventor based in Houli, Taiwan. She has made significant contributions to the field of solar technology, holding 2 patents that showcase her innovative spirit and technical expertise. Her work focuses on enhancing the efficiency and safety of solar modules, which are crucial for sustainable energy solutions.
Latest Patents
One of her latest patents is for a backsheet of a solar cell. This invention discloses a backsheet that comprises, sequentially from bottom to top, a bottom plastic layer, at least a first insulating layer, a conductive waterproof layer, at least a second insulating layer formed on the conductive waterproof layer, and a weather-resistant layer formed on the second insulating layer. The voltage-resistant ability of the weather-resistant layer is usually about one-third of that of the ordinary insulating layer. The invention addresses the common issue of pinholes that can lead to arc failures by incorporating a second insulating layer to enhance the voltage-resistant ability of the weather-resistant layer.
Another notable patent is for a solar module with a bimetal breaker. The primary objective of this invention is to provide a solar module that includes terminal ribbons deposited on both sides and inter-connecting ribbons connected to these terminal ribbons. The bimetal breaker, which consists of a bimetal unit made of two metal layers, bends when heated due to different thermal expansion coefficients. This action separates the conducting terminals to prevent damage to the solar module from high temperatures.
