Patent ID: 8678069

Claim:
A photovoltaic blind window comprising: a multilayer glass comprised of a pair of plate glass sheets joined to each other along rims thereof via spacers to form an internal space between the plate glass sheets; an electric blind received in the internal space of the multilayer glass and including a plurality of slats moved in a vertical direction or tilted by operation of a drive motor; a plurality of photovoltaic cells arranged on at least one side of each of the respective slats; and a storage battery storing electric power generated by the photovoltaic cells, wherein the plurality of slats are connected to each other in series, and each of the plurality of slats further include a dummy line separate from the photovoltaic cells and traversing each slat in the longitudinal direction such that one of a negative terminal and a positive terminal of a lowermost slat is connected to the other of a negative terminal and a positive terminal of an uppermost slat through the dummy lines of intermediate slats, whereby an electrical circuit is completed.
