A thermoelectric power generation device includes: a high-temperature plate having an upper face; a low-temperature plate having a lower face; a thermoelectric module disposed between the upper face and the lower face; a sealing portion disposed between the upper and lower faces, the sealing portion sealing the thermoelectric module at a circumferential portion of the upper face and a circumferential portion of the lower face; a first positioning portion disposed at the circumferential portion of the upper face; and a second positioning portion disposed at the circumferential portion of the lower face. The first positioning portion positions the sealing portion at the circumferential portion of the upper face, and the second positioning portion positions the sealing portion at the circumferential portion of the lower face.

Thermoelectric power generation device

A thermoelectric generator module includes a first base material that is formed into a sheet and that has a thermoplastic layer, a second base material that is formed into a sheet and that has a thermoplastic layer, a plurality of thermoelectric conversion elements arranged between the first base material and the second base material, a plurality of first electrodes arranged between the first base material and the thermoelectric conversion elements, a plurality of second electrodes arranged between the second base material and the thermoelectric conversion elements, and a joint that joins the first base material to the second base material. The thermoelectric conversion elements, the plurality of first electrodes, and the plurality of second electrodes are sealed by the joint.

Thermoelectric generator module

A thermoelectric module includes a substrate, a plurality of electrodes arranged on a surface of the substrate, a plurality of thermoelectric elements respectively connected to the plurality of electrodes, and at least three terminals respectively connected to the different electrodes and connected to one or both of a first load and a second load.

Thermoelectric module and adjustment method of thermoelectric module

A thermoelectric module includesa plurality of electrodes (high temperature side electrodes and low temperature side electrodes, thermoelectric conversion elements (p-type element and n-type element) arranged between the two electrodes, and a bonding layer disposed between the electrodes and the thermoelectric conversion elements. The bonding layer includes copper-containing particles, copper balls each having a particle diameter of 30 μm or more, an intermetallic compound of copper and tin, and a fired resin.
