US Patent:

20090139567, Jun 4, 2009

Filed:

Nov 29, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/947543

Inventors:

Philip Chihchau Liu - Fremont CA, US
Marvin S. Keshner - Sonora CA, US
Paul McClelland - Monmouth OR, US
Donald Winston Rice - San Jose CA, US
Rajeewa Arya - Beaverton OR, US

International Classification:

H01L 31/0216
B05D 5/12

US Classification:

136256, 427 74

Abstract:

A multilayer conformal coating is optimized in both composition and geometry to protect the back and sides of a transparent-fronted thin-film solar photovoltaic panel or similar device from various damage mechanisms associated with long-term outdoor exposure without an additional backcap or edge frame. A “barrier stack” or “barrier layer” of inorganic moisture-barrier and chemical-barrier layers is applied to the back of the photovoltaic functional film stack, extending into a bare-substrate border zone around the functional stack edges. The barrier stack shields the functional stack from moisture and chemical invasion, and the coated border zone effectively seals the vulnerable edges of the functional stack. An “envelope stack” or “envelope layer” of thicker polymer films is applied over the mechanically delicate inorganic barrier stack and around the solar photovoltaic panel edges. The envelope stack electrically insulates the solar photovoltaic panel and substantially protects the panel back and sides from mechanical shock, stress, and abrasion, thermal stress, fire, weathering, and UV-exposure degradation.

International Classification:

G06Q 30/02

US Classification:

705 729

Abstract:

The invention provides systems and methods for processing sales leads. Illustratively, the invention provides a method of assigning sales leads in a network environment, the sales leads relating to persons interested in effecting a purchase, the method comprising: obtaining a lead, the lead including lead information relating to a person interested in effecting a purchase; loading the lead into a lead processing portion; determining if the lead is auto-assignable; assigning the lead to a sales agent; and outputting the lead information over the network environment to a lead distribution portion, so as to be accessible to the sales agent.
