Abstract

See full text

A thermoelectric conversion module has a substrate, a plurality of first electrodes, a plurality of thermoelectric conversion elements 2, a plurality of second electrodes 4, and connectors 42. The plurality of thermoelectric conversion elements 2 are n-type elements, connected in series. The connector 42 is formed as a single unit with the second electrodes 4 and separate from the first electrodes 3. A receptor 33 that accepts the tip of the connector 42 is provided to each of the first electrodes 3. Six element rows 6 of five thermoelectric conversion elements 2 aligned along the X axis are arrayed along the Y axis. The receptors 33 are configured to accept connectors 42 of the same shape whether electrically connecting the thermoelectric conversion elements 2 within the element rows 6 or electrically connecting between adjacent element rows 6. The first electrodes 3 and second electrodes 4 are all the same shape.
