Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of photovoltaic panel installation measurement technology, and in particular to a distance measuring device for photovoltaic panel installation. Background Technology

[0002] The core function of photovoltaic panels (also known as "photovoltaic solar panels") is to convert solar energy into electrical energy, making them the core energy conversion component of a photovoltaic power generation system. Their functions revolve around both "energy conversion" and "electrical energy application."

[0003] The selection of photovoltaic panel installation locations revolves around three core principles: "maximizing sunlight reception" (ensuring power generation), "adapting to the characteristics of the installation carrier" (ensuring safety and stability), and "matching power consumption / grid connection requirements." Based on application scenarios and carrier differences, they can be mainly divided into three categories: ground-mounted, building-mounted, and special-scenario installations.

[0004] When installing photovoltaic (PV) panels, the spacing between adjacent PV panel groups needs to be determined based on factors such as the size and orientation of the installation site. This is to prevent the distance between adjacent PV panels from being too small, which would cause light blockage between them and affect power generation efficiency. At the same time, it is also to prevent the distance between adjacent PV panels from being too large, which would reduce the number of PV panels that can be installed, and thus also affect power generation efficiency.

[0005] During installation, the spacing between adjacent photovoltaic panels often requires at least two workers to work together with measuring tapes. This method increases the workload for workers, and when there are obstacles at the measurement site, the two workers need to raise the measuring tapes to avoid them. However, it is difficult to ensure the levelness of the measuring tapes during measurement, which reduces the accuracy of the measurement.

[0006] Furthermore, the gaps between two adjacent photovoltaic panel modules can easily form air ducts, which can seriously affect the stability of the two sets of photovoltaic panel modules. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the technical problems of existing technologies where measuring the distance between adjacent photovoltaic panels often requires at least two workers to operate measuring tapes, increasing labor input, and when there are obstacles at the measurement location, the two workers need to raise the measuring tapes to avoid them, making it difficult to ensure the levelness of the measuring tapes and reducing measurement accuracy, and the gap between two sets of photovoltaic panels can easily form an airflow channel, which seriously affects the stability of the two sets of photovoltaic panels, this invention provides a distance measuring device for photovoltaic panel installation.

[0008] The present invention provides a distance measuring device for photovoltaic panel installation, which adopts the following technical solution: A distance measuring device for photovoltaic panel installation includes a measuring component disposed at the bottom of a first group of photovoltaic panel modules to measure the distance between two adjacent groups of photovoltaic panel modules. The first group of photovoltaic panel modules includes a support assembly and photovoltaic panels disposed at the top of the support assembly. The measuring component is disposed at the bottom of the support assembly. The device also includes a driving component that is rotatably disposed at the bottom of the measuring component to drive the measuring component to perform the measurement. A locking component is disposed at the bottom of the measuring component to fix the measuring position of the measuring component. A first clamping component and a second clamping component are disposed at the end of the measuring component to be fixedly connected to a second group of photovoltaic panel modules.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution: the measuring component measures the distance between two sets of adjacent photovoltaic panels by rotating the driving component, the measuring position of the measuring component is fixed by the locking component, and the measuring component is fixedly connected to the second set of photovoltaic panels by the first clamping component and the second clamping component. This device can not only accurately measure the distance between the two sets of photovoltaic panels, but also increase the stability between the two sets of photovoltaic panels.

[0010] Furthermore, the support assembly includes two vertical frames symmetrically arranged on both sides, and two short frames corresponding to one side of the two vertical frames. An inclined beam is welded to the top of the vertical frames and the short frames, and a photovoltaic panel is screwed onto the upper surface of the inclined beam. The measuring component is longitudinally movably sleeved on the outer wall of the vertical frame.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution: photovoltaic panels convert light energy into electrical energy, and measuring components measure the installation distance between two adjacent sets of photovoltaic panel components.

[0012] Furthermore, the measuring component includes a fixed sleeve fitted outside the vertical frame; a locking pin screwed onto the upper part of the fixed sleeve to fix the fixed sleeve to the vertical frame; a connecting sleeve rotatably fitted outside the fixed sleeve; and a ruler slidably disposed outside the connecting sleeve to measure the installation distance between two adjacent photovoltaic panel components, with a numerical indicator needle provided in the fixed sleeve at a position corresponding to the ruler.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the spacing between two adjacent photovoltaic panel modules is determined by observing the corresponding position of the numerical indicator needle and the ruler after moving the ruler.

[0014] Furthermore, the fixing sleeve includes a circular sleeve with a rotating groove on its outer wall. The connecting sleeve is rotatably disposed within the rotating groove. A first limiting block and a second limiting block are provided protruding outward from the outer wall of the rotating groove. A locking groove is provided on the inner wall of the connecting sleeve to engage with the first or second limiting block. A boss is provided on the top of the circular sleeve. After the locking pin passes through the side wall of the boss, it presses against the side wall of the vertical frame. The locking pin and the side wall of the boss form a threaded connection.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the fixing sleeve can be fixedly installed on the vertical frame by locking the locking pin, and the measuring direction of the ruler can be changed by rotating the connecting sleeve to switch the position of the slot.

[0016] Furthermore, two slide rails are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connecting sleeve. There are two ruler plates, which are slidably arranged in the two slide rails respectively. A connecting seat is fixedly welded to the side of the two ruler plates away from the reinforcing frame, and the two ruler plates are connected by the connecting seat.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, when measuring distance, only one ruler needs to be moved to make the two rulers move synchronously.

[0018] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes a gear and a knob fixedly disposed on the side of the gear. An extension plate extends downward from the bottom of the slide rail located outside the connecting sleeve. The gear is rotatably disposed on the extension plate. The bottom of the ruler plate has horizontal teeth, and the gear meshes with the horizontal teeth at the bottom of the ruler plate.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the gear can be driven to move the ruler plate to measure dimensions by rotating the knob.

[0020] Furthermore, the locking assembly includes a locking block that engages with the bottom of the gear, a side groove on the surface of the extension plate, and the bottom of the locking block slidably disposed within the side groove; a connecting post disposed on the side wall of the locking block; a mounting plate disposed at the end of the side groove, the connecting post passing through the mounting plate and having a pull plate fixedly disposed at its end; and a thrust spring disposed between the locking block and the mounting plate, the thrust spring being sleeved on the outside of the connecting post.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the locking block and the gear are engaged under the elastic force of the thrust spring, so that the locking assembly fixes the rotation position of the knob, thereby fixing the measuring position of the ruler.

[0022] Furthermore, a first clamping component and a second clamping component are provided on the upper part of the connecting seat to be fixedly connected to the vertical frame in the second group of photovoltaic panels, and the connecting seat is provided with a through hole.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution: by inserting the vertical frame of the second set of photovoltaic panels into the through hole in the connector, and clamping and fixing it by the first clamping component and the second clamping component, the ruler is simultaneously fixedly connected to the first set of photovoltaic panels and the second set of photovoltaic panels.

[0024] Furthermore, there are two first clamping assemblies, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connecting seat. Each first clamping assembly includes a first clamping block slidably disposed on the surface of the connecting seat, and a first sliding groove provided on the surface of the connecting seat. The bottom of the first clamping block is slidably disposed in the first sliding groove. A connecting rod is disposed on the side of the first clamping block. A first connecting plate is provided at the end of the first sliding groove. After the connecting rod passes through the first connecting plate, a rotating handle is fixedly disposed at its end. The end of the connecting rod near the first connecting plate has a thread, and the connecting rod and the first connecting plate form a threaded connection.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution: by rotating the rotating handle, the first clamping blocks on both sides of the connecting seat clamp and fix the side wall of the vertical frame in the second group of photovoltaic panels.

[0026] Furthermore, the second clamping assembly includes a second clamping block slidably disposed on the upper part of the connecting seat, the upper part of the connecting seat being provided with a second sliding groove, and a sliding plate located at the bottom of the second clamping block, the sliding plate being slidably disposed within the second sliding groove; a connecting rod disposed at the end of the sliding plate, the end of the second sliding groove being provided with a second connecting plate, the connecting rod passing through the second connecting plate and having a baffle plate disposed at its end; a U-shaped connecting arm slidably disposed on the first sliding groove, the outer wall of the connecting rod near the first clamping block being provided with a limiting ring, the U-shaped connecting arm being disposed within the limiting ring and forming a rotatable connection with the connecting rod; cylindrical push blocks rotatably disposed at both ends of the U-shaped connecting arm, the cylindrical push blocks being connected to the side of the second clamping block; and a tension spring disposed between the second connecting plate and the sliding plate, the tension spring being sleeved on the outside of the connecting rod, the side wall of the second clamping block having an inclined groove that cooperates with the cylindrical push block.

[0027] By adopting the above technical solution: under the tension of the tension spring, the cylindrical push block is lowered into the inclined groove. When the rotating handle is rotated, the U-shaped connecting arm can move together with the first clamping block. During the movement of the U-shaped connecting arm, the cylindrical push block presses against the side wall of the second clamping block and pushes the second clamping block to clamp and fix the other side walls of the vertical frame in the second group of photovoltaic panels.

[0028] In summary, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. By setting up a measuring component, when installing multiple photovoltaic panel modules, the user determines the spacing between two adjacent photovoltaic panel modules based on factors such as the size and orientation of the installation site, and selects a measuring component of suitable size for use, avoiding excessively long measuring components that increase material and transportation costs. The measuring component is then fitted onto the outer wall of the bottom of the vertical frame through the top of the frame, and the bracket assembly and photovoltaic panels are assembled. When measuring the spacing between two adjacent photovoltaic panel modules, the user first rotates the fixing sleeve to make the measuring component movable. Then, according to the actual situation of the installation site, the height of the measuring component is adjusted. If there are obstacles in the installation site, the measuring component can be moved upwards to avoid them. The fixing sleeve is then locked to fix the installation position of the measuring component. The user rotates the knob to make the ruler measure and position the distance between two adjacent photovoltaic panel modules. When using this device for measurement, two workers are not required to hold a measuring tape to cooperate in the measurement; only one worker is needed to complete the measurement. Furthermore, because this measurement method is horizontal, the results are more accurate. By using this invention, not only is the amount of labor required reduced, but the accuracy of photovoltaic panel module installation is also improved.

[0029] 2. By setting up a locking assembly, a first clamping assembly, and a second clamping assembly, the locking assembly fixes the measuring position of the ruler plate during use. Then, the bottom of the vertical frame of the second photovoltaic panel assembly is installed at the measuring position at the bottom of the connecting seat through the through hole. Rotating the rotating handle in the first clamping assembly causes the connecting rod to move the first clamping block and the U-shaped connecting arm towards the vertical frame. The first clamping block clamps and fixes the two sides of the vertical frame in the second photovoltaic panel assembly. At the same time, during the movement of the U-shaped connecting arm, the cylindrical push block pushes the second clamping block towards the vertical frame. The second clamping block clamps and fixes the two outer side walls of the vertical frame. Finally, the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly form a fixed connection between the connecting seat and the vertical frame in the second photovoltaic panel assembly, thereby fixing the ruler plate between the two adjacent photovoltaic panel assemblies. This structural design increases the wind resistance and stability of the two adjacent photovoltaic panel assemblies during use, effectively preventing the wind channel formed between the two adjacent photovoltaic panel assemblies from affecting the stability of the two photovoltaic panel assemblies during use.

[0032] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. The illustrative embodiments and descriptions herein are used to explain the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the first embodiment of the present invention discloses a distance measuring device for photovoltaic panel installation, including a measuring component 3 disposed at the bottom of a photovoltaic panel assembly. The measuring component 3 measures the installation distance between adjacent photovoltaic panel assemblies to prevent the distance between adjacent photovoltaic panel assemblies from being too small, which would cause light blockage between adjacent photovoltaic panel assemblies and affect power generation efficiency. At the same time, it also prevents the distance between adjacent photovoltaic panel assemblies from being too large, which would reduce the number of photovoltaic panel assemblies installed, which would also affect power generation efficiency. It also includes a drive component 4 disposed at the bottom of the measuring component 3 to rotate. The driving component 4 rotates to cause the measuring component 3 to perform distance measurement. Hereinafter, two adjacent sets of photovoltaic panel assemblies are referred to as the first set of photovoltaic panel assemblies and the second set of photovoltaic panel assemblies. The first set of photovoltaic panel assemblies and the second set of photovoltaic panel assemblies have the same structure.

[0034] Specifically, the first photovoltaic panel assembly includes a support assembly 1 and photovoltaic panels 2 screwed onto the top of the support assembly 1, converting light energy into electrical energy through the photovoltaic panels 2. Preferably, the support assembly 1 includes two vertical frames 11 symmetrically arranged on both sides, with two short frames 12 correspondingly arranged on one side of each vertical frame 11. An inclined beam 13 is welded to the top of the vertical frames 11 and short frames 12, and the photovoltaic panels 2 are screwed onto the upper surface of the inclined beam 13. To increase the stability of the support assembly 1 during use, a reinforcing frame 15 can be added between the vertical frames 11 and the short frames 12. The top of the reinforcing frame 15 is welded and fixed to the bottom of the inclined beam 13. Additionally, reinforcing beams 14 can be added between the vertical frames 11 and the reinforcing frame 15, between the reinforcing frame 15 and the short frames 12, and between the two vertical frames 11. The addition of reinforcing beams 14 and reinforcing frames 15 increases the overall wind resistance of the support assembly 1 and enhances its stability during use. The measuring component 3 is longitudinally movably sleeved on the outer wall of the vertical frame 11.

[0035] Moreover, refer to Figures 2-4 and Figure 7As shown, the measuring component 3 includes a fixed sleeve 31 sleeved on the outside of the vertical frame 11; a locking pin 35 screwed onto the upper part of the fixed sleeve 31 to fix the fixed sleeve 31 to the vertical frame 11; a connecting sleeve 32 rotatably sleeved on the outside of the fixed sleeve 31; and a ruler 34 slidably disposed on the outside of the connecting sleeve 32 to measure the installation distance between two adjacent photovoltaic panel components. A numerical indicator needle 313 is provided in the fixed sleeve 31 at a position corresponding to the ruler 34. Preferably, the fixing sleeve 31 includes a circular sleeve 311, the outer wall of which is provided with a rotating groove 312. The connecting sleeve 32 is rotatably disposed within the rotating groove 312. A first limiting block 314 and a second limiting block 316 are provided protruding outward from the outer wall of the rotating groove 312. A locking groove 322 is provided on the inner wall of the connecting sleeve 32 to engage with the first limiting block 314 or the second limiting block 316. By switching the engagement position of the locking groove 322, the measuring direction of the ruler 34 can be changed. When changing the measuring direction of the ruler 34, the ruler 34 needs to be pulled away from the reinforcing frame 15 so that the end of the ruler 34 is located between the vertical frame 11 and the reinforcing frame 15, preventing the ruler from being rotated by the connecting sleeve 32. When the measuring position of plate 34 is changed, the end of the ruler plate 34 interferes with the reinforcing frame 15. The boss 315 set on the top of the circular sleeve 311 has a locking pin 35 that passes through the side wall of the boss 315 and presses against the side wall of the vertical frame 11. The locking pin 35 and the side wall of the boss 315 form a threaded connection. Rotating the locking pin 35 locks the locking pin 35 into the boss 315 and presses it against the side wall of the vertical frame 11, thus fixing the installation position of the measuring component 3. In use, the user can rotate the locking pin 35 to keep the measuring component 3 and the vertical frame 11 in an active state. When there is an obstacle at the measuring position, the ruler plate 34 can be moved upward by moving the measuring component 3 upward to avoid the obstacle, ensuring that the measurement work can be carried out smoothly.

[0036] Reference Figure 3 As shown, two slide rails 33 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connecting sleeve 32. There are two ruler plates 34, which are slidably arranged in the two slide rails 33 respectively. A connecting seat 7 is fixedly welded to the side of the two ruler plates 34 away from the reinforcing frame 15. The two ruler plates 34 are connected by the connecting seat 7. When measuring distance, only one ruler plate 34 needs to be moved to make the two ruler plates 34 move synchronously.

[0037] Specifically, refer to Figure 5As shown, the drive assembly 4 includes a gear 41 and a knob 42 fixedly disposed on the side of the gear 41. An extension plate 321 extends downward from the bottom of the slide rail 33 located outside the connecting sleeve 32. The gear 41 is rotatably disposed on the extension plate 321. The ruler plate 34 has horizontal teeth at the bottom. The gear 41 meshes with the horizontal teeth at the bottom of the ruler plate 34. By rotating the knob 42, the gear 41 can drive the ruler plate 34 to move for size measurement.

[0038] When installing multiple photovoltaic (PV) panel modules, the user determines the spacing between adjacent groups of PV panel modules based on factors such as the size and orientation of the installation site, and selects a suitable measuring component 3 for use to avoid increasing material and transportation costs due to excessively long measuring component 3. The measuring component 3 is then fitted onto the outer wall of the bottom of the vertical frame 11 via the top of the frame. The support assembly 1 and PV panel 2 are then assembled. When measuring the spacing between adjacent groups of PV panel modules, the user first rotates the fixing sleeve 31 to make the measuring component 3 movable. Then, based on the actual conditions of the installation site, the height of the measuring component 3 is adjusted. Adjustments can be made, such as when there are obstacles at the installation site, the measuring component 3 can be moved upward to avoid the obstacles, and then the fixing sleeve 31 can be locked to fix the installation position of the measuring component 3. The user can rotate the knob 42 to make the ruler 34 measure and position the distance between two adjacent photovoltaic panel components. When using this device for measurement, it is not necessary for two workers to hold a tape measure to cooperate in the measurement. Only one worker is needed to operate it to complete the measurement. Moreover, since this measurement method is a horizontal measurement, the result is more accurate. By using this invention, not only is the amount of labor input and workload reduced, but the accuracy of photovoltaic panel component installation is also improved.

[0039] The second embodiment of the present invention, referred to Figures 5-7 As shown, a locking component 5 is located at the bottom of the measuring component 3 to fix the measuring position of the measuring component 3; a first clamping component 6 and a second clamping component 8 are located on the upper part of the connecting seat 7 to fix the vertical frame 11 in the second group of photovoltaic panels. The connecting seat 7 is provided with a through hole. In use, the bottom of the vertical frame 11 in the second group of photovoltaic panels passes through the through hole on the connecting seat 7 and is installed at the measuring position at the bottom of the connecting seat 7. The first clamping component 6 and the second clamping component 8 fix the connecting seat 7 and the vertical frame 11, thereby fixing the ruler 34 between the two adjacent groups of photovoltaic panels. This structural design increases the wind resistance and stability of the two adjacent groups of photovoltaic panels during use.

[0040] Specifically, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the locking assembly 5 includes a locking block 52 that engages with the bottom of the gear 41. The surface of the extension plate 321 is provided with a side groove 323, and the bottom of the locking block 52 is slidably disposed within the side groove 323. A connecting post 55 is disposed on the side wall of the locking block 52. A mounting plate 53 is disposed at the end of the side groove 323. After the connecting post 55 passes through the mounting plate 53, a pull plate 51 is fixedly disposed at its end. A thrust spring 54 is disposed between the locking block 52 and the mounting plate 53. The thrust spring 54 is sleeved on the outside of the connecting post 55. Under the elastic force of the thrust spring 54, the locking block 52 engages with the gear 41, fixing the rotation position of the knob 42, thereby fixing the measuring position of the ruler 34.

[0041] Moreover, refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, there are two first clamping components 6, symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connecting seat 7. These first clamping components 6 clamp and fix the two side walls of the vertical frame 11. Each first clamping component 6 includes a first clamping block 61 slidably disposed on the surface of the connecting seat 7. The surface of the connecting seat 7 is provided with a first sliding groove 71, and the bottom of the first clamping block 61 is slidably disposed within the first sliding groove 71. A connecting rod 62 is disposed on the side of the first clamping block 61. A first connecting plate 72 is disposed at the end of the first sliding groove 71. The connecting rod 62 passes through the first connecting plate 72 and has a rotating handle 64 fixedly disposed at its end. The end of the connecting rod 62 near the first connecting plate 72 has a thread, and the connecting rod 62 forms a threaded connection with the first connecting plate 72. In use, by rotating the rotating handle 64, the first clamping blocks 61 on both sides of the connecting seat 7 clamp and fix the side walls of the vertical frame 11 in the second photovoltaic panel assembly.

[0042] Reference Figure 8As shown, the second clamping assembly 8 includes a second clamping block 81 slidably disposed on the upper part of the connecting seat 7 to fix other side walls of the vertical frame 11 in the second photovoltaic panel assembly. The upper part of the connecting seat 7 is provided with a second sliding groove 73, and a sliding plate 82 is located at the bottom of the second clamping block 81. The sliding plate 82 is slidably disposed in the second sliding groove 73. A connecting rod 83 is disposed at the end of the sliding plate 82. The end of the second sliding groove 73 is provided with a second connecting plate 74. After the connecting rod 83 passes through the second connecting plate 74, a baffle 87 is provided at its end. A U-shaped connecting arm 85 is slidably disposed on the first sliding groove 71. A limit ring 63 is provided on the outer wall of the connecting rod 62 near the first clamping block 61. The U-shaped connecting arm 85 is provided with... The U-shaped connecting arm 85 is placed inside the limiting ring 63 and rotatedly connected to the connecting rod 62. When the rotating handle 64 is rotated, the U-shaped connecting arm 85 can move together with the first clamping block 61. The cylindrical push blocks 86, which are rotatably set at both ends of the U-shaped connecting arm 85, are connected to the side of the second clamping block 81. During use, the cylindrical push blocks 86 can press against the side wall of the second clamping block 81 during the movement of the U-shaped connecting arm 85. The tension spring 84, which is set between the second connecting plate 74 and the sliding plate 82, is sleeved on the outside of the connecting rod 83 and has a groove 811 on the side wall of the second clamping block 81. Under the tension of the tension spring 84, the cylindrical push block 86 is lowered into the groove 811.

[0043] In use, pull the pull plate 51 outward to disengage the locking block 52 from the gear 41. At this time, the drive assembly 4 is in a rotatable state. Rotate the knob 42 to move the ruler 34 for size measurement. When the ruler 34 moves to the verified size, release the pull plate 51. The locking block 52 engages with the gear 41 under the elastic force of the thrust spring 54, fixing the position of the ruler 34. Then, the bottom of the vertical frame 11 in the second photovoltaic panel assembly is installed at the measuring position at the bottom of the connecting seat 7 through the through hole. Rotate the rotating handle 64 to move the connecting rod 62 towards the vertical frame 11, causing the first clamping block 61 and the U-shaped connecting arm 85 to move towards the vertical frame 11. The first clamping block 61 then clamps the vertical frame 11. The two sides are clamped and fixed. At the same time, during the movement of the U-shaped connecting arm 85, the cylindrical push block 86 pushes the second clamping block 81 to move towards the vertical frame 11. The second clamping block 81 clamps and fixes the two outer side walls of the vertical frame 11. Finally, the first clamping component 6 and the second clamping component 8 form a fixed connection between the connecting seat 7 and the vertical frame 11 in the second group of photovoltaic panels, so that the ruler plate 34 is fixedly set between the two adjacent groups of photovoltaic panels. This structural design increases the wind resistance and stability of the two adjacent groups of photovoltaic panels during use, and effectively prevents the wind channel formed between the two adjacent groups of photovoltaic panels from affecting the stability of the two groups of photovoltaic panels during use.
