The invention relates to the technical field of protection structures, in particular to overwater photovoltaic equipment with a protection function. The device comprises a
floating platform, a plurality of supporting columns are fixed to the outer side of the top end of the
floating platform, a supporting plate is fixed to the top ends of the supporting columns, a photovoltaic panel is fixed to the top end of the supporting plate, a plurality of
buoyancy rings are fixed to the bottom end of the
floating platform, and a plurality of L-shaped frames are slidably connected to the outer side of the interior of the floating platform; a guide sliding cylinder is fixed to the bottom ends of the L-shaped frames, and a
telescopic cylinder is slidably connected to the inner side of the guide sliding cylinder. According to the overwater photovoltaic equipment with the protection function, a photovoltaic panel is assembled above a supporting plate, a floating platform floats on the water surface, an L-shaped frame, a
buoyancy cylinder, a guide sliding cylinder and a
telescopic cylinder float under the water surface, when
sea waves push the floating platform, the L-shaped frame and the floating platform slide, and the floating platform is driven by the
buoyancy cylinder to slide; and finally, the floating platform and the photovoltaic panel are pulled back through the L-shaped frame, so that the stability of the photovoltaic panel and the floating platform is maintained.
