[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a hanging structure for installing photovoltaic tiles on a metal roof, which can simplify the installation process, reduce the installation cost, and form a better appearance effect.

[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0005] A hanging structure for installing photovoltaic tiles on a metal roof is used to install photovoltaic tiles on a metal roof with a lock edge. The hanging structure for installing photovoltaic tiles on a metal roof includes a component frame connected to the photovoltaic tiles and installation screws. The component frame includes a fixing part fixed to the edge of the photovoltaic tiles and a connecting part connected to one side of the fixing part.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings.

[0020] Embodiment 1: As shown in FIG Figure 1 and FIG Figure 2 , the metal roof 1 is formed by splicing a plurality of metal plates, and a standing edge 2 of the metal roof 1 is formed at the splicing position of adjacent metal plates. The structure of the edge locking 2 includes a standing seam mounting member 3 perpendicular to the metal roof 1, a first folded edge formed by folding the edge of one metal plate, and a second folded edge formed by folding the edge of another metal plate. The first folded edge extends upward along one side of the standing seam mounting member 3 to the top of the standing seam mounting member 3 and covers the top of the standing seam mounting member 3, while the second folded edge extends upward along the other side of the standing seam mounting member 3 to the top of the standing seam mounting member 3 and covers a partial first folded edge outside the top of the standing seam mounting member 3.

[0021] For the metal roof 1 with the above structure, the following hanging structure for the installation of photovoltaic tiles on the metal roof is designed to install the photovoltaic tiles 15 on the metal roof 1 with the edge lock 2.

[0022] The hanging structure for the installation of the photovoltaic tiles on the metal roof includes a component frame 4 and installation screws 5. As shown in the appendix Figure 3 As shown, the component frame 4 is connected to the photovoltaic tile 15 and fixed at the edge of the photovoltaic tile 15. It includes at least a fixing part 6 and a connecting part 7. The fixing part 6 is used to fix at the edge of the photovoltaic tile 15, and it includes a glass groove 9 for embedding the edge of the photovoltaic tile 15. The inner wall of the glass groove 9 is an uneven curved surface. The connecting part 7 is connected to one side of the fixing part 6 (the upward side) and is provided with a screw hole. The installation screw 5 is arranged in the screw hole to connect the connecting part 7 with the edge lock 2 of the metal roof 1. When the photovoltaic tile 15 is installed on the metal roof 1, the end of the screw rod of the installation screw 5 abuts against the edge lock 2 of the metal roof 1. Further, the edge lock 2 of the metal roof 1 forms a depression under the abutting action of the installation screw 5, and the end of the screw rod of the installation screw 5 fits tightly with the depression. Specifically, the connecting part 7 includes a connecting plate 10 and a baffle 11. One side of the connecting plate 10 is connected to the fixing part 6, and the baffle 11 is arranged on the other side of the connecting plate 10. The thickness of the middle part of the connecting plate 10 is greater than that of its edge, so that a thickened part is formed in the middle of the connecting plate 10, and the screw hole is opened in the thickened part. In addition, the component frame 4 further includes a supporting part 8 connected to the other side of the fixing part 6 (the downward side) and supported on the metal roof 1. The supporting part 8 includes a supporting plate 12 connected to the fixing part 6 and located between the fixing part 6 and the metal roof 1, and a bottom plate 13 connected to the supporting plate 12 and directly or indirectly placed on the metal roof 1. The supporting plate 12, the bottom plate 13 of the glass groove 9, and the connecting plate 10 are coplanar. The component frame 4 and the photovoltaic tile 15 (i.e., the glass component) form an integral body, and the component frame 4 is fixed to the photovoltaic tile 15 by structural adhesive or other means.

[0023] As shown in the appendix Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, when the second folded edge continues to extend to have an edge lock extension part 14 that shields the first folded edge, for the installation screws 5 on one side of the edge lock extension part 14, it is necessary to first penetrate the edge lock extension part 14 and then squeeze into the surface of the metal plate forming the first folded edge. The advantage of this solution is that the installation screw 5 penetrates into the second folded edge, making the connection between the photovoltaic tile 15 and the metal roof 1 tighter.

[0024] The prerequisite for applying the hanging structure of the above-mentioned photovoltaic tiles during installation on a metal roof is that the installation of the metal roof 1 with the upright lock edge 2 has been completed. During installation, the photovoltaic tile 15 with the component frame 4 is placed on the metal roof 1 between the two lock edges 2. The opposite side edges of the photovoltaic tile 15 are provided with the component frame 4. Installation screws 5 are screwed into the component frame 4, and the arrangement pitch of the installation screws 5 can be determined according to actual needs. The end of the screw rod of the installation screw 5 is a smooth round head. The installation screw 5 is tightened so that the installation screw 5 abuts against the side metal plate of the lock edge 2, and the metal plate of the lock edge 2 is recessed due to the extrusion of the installation screw 5, and the end of the installation screw 5 fits tightly with the recess, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing the photovoltaic tile 15. All the photovoltaic tiles 15 are laid in the same way, and the photovoltaic tiles 15 are attached to the surface of the metal roof 1, which can not only keep the same overall appearance form as the original metal roof 1, but also play a decorative effect on the original metal roof 1, making the appearance of the metal roof 1 more beautiful.

[0025] Since there is a support portion 8 in the component frame 4, there is a certain gap between the photovoltaic tile 15 and the surface of the metal roof 1, forming a heat dissipation and ventilation channel on the back surface of the photovoltaic tile 15, which helps the heat dissipation and ventilation of the metal roof 1 and the photovoltaic tile 15, and also plays a positive role in the heat insulation of the metal roof 1.

[0026] The above-mentioned scheme is easy to install. Compared with the traditional method of installing photovoltaic modules by erecting brackets on the surface of the metal roof 1, this scheme is easier to install, consumes less materials, and also improves the consistency of the appearance of the photovoltaic modules and the metal roof 1 on the metal roof 1, enhancing the appearance effect of the building roof.

[0027] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical concept and features of the present invention, and their purpose is to enable those who are familiar with this technology to understand the content of the present invention and implement it accordingly, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit and essence of the present invention should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
