Patent ID: 8299350

Claim:
A solar cell module comprising first and second solar cells arranged in a line in a first direction and a wiring member electrically connecting the first and second solar cells, wherein the first and second solar cells each include a photoelectric conversion part configured to produce photogenerated carriers by receiving light and a collecting electrode which is formed on a principal surface of the photoelectric conversion part and is configured to collect the photogenerated carriers, the wiring member is provided in the first direction on the principal surfaces of the first and second solar cells, a resin adhesive is provided between the wiring member and the principal surfaces of the first and second solar cells, a cross section of the wiring member is convexly formed toward the first and second solar cells, the cross section being substantially perpendicular to the first direction, and in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction, a width of a connection region in which the wiring member and the collecting electrode are electrically connected is larger than a substantially half a width of the wiring member in an edge portion of the wiring member in the second direction, the wiring member and the collecting electrode are connected by a resin in the resin adhesive, the resin continuing from a surface of the wiring member to a surface of the collecting electrode.
