Abstract:
1. A vacuum lamination method of manufacturing a laminate module, comprising: forming a continuous long gap between each of evacuation members and a base plate; arranging the evacuation members to be spaced apart from each other with the long gaps facing each other; placing a spacer in each of the gaps between the evacuation member and the base plate, the spacer preventing the gap from being blocked; placing components of the laminate module on the base plate between the evacuation members fixed to the base plate at opposing sides thereof, covering the evacuation members and the base plate with a cover sheet to form a space for a lamination process, evacuating the space with a vacuum pump, and heating the space while maintaining evacuation to complete the lamination process for the components of the laminate module; wherein each evacuation member has a triangular shape with an inclined surface facing upwardly relative to the base plate when placed on the base plate, said long gap being formed between an end of the inclined surface and the base so that the spacer extends from an inside to an outside of the triangular evacuation member through the gap.
