[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of photovoltaic panel installation, and particularly to a photovoltaic panel installation device. Background Art

[0002] Photovoltaic panels are composed of thin solid photovoltaic cells made almost entirely of semiconductor materials (such as silicon). Since they generate direct current when exposed to sunlight, they are widely used in the field of power generation technology, and centralized photovoltaic power stations are one of the applications.

[0003] During the construction of a centralized photovoltaic power station, it is necessary to erect a photovoltaic array. The steps of erecting a photovoltaic array are as follows: First, it is necessary to drive piles on the ground. After driving the piles, install a photovoltaic panel support on the pipe piles. Finally, install the photovoltaic panels on the photovoltaic panel support. However, in the existing construction process, when installing the photovoltaic panels on the photovoltaic panel support, generally, workers need to lift the photovoltaic panels one by one and then install them on the photovoltaic panel support. At least two workers are required to cooperate in the construction. Moreover, due to the dense arrangement of the pipe piles, the process of workers carrying the photovoltaic panels is also relatively inconvenient, and the installation efficiency is low.

[0010] Furthermore, the first support part includes a first support plate, a second support plate horizontally arranged on one side of the first support plate, and support bars connecting the first support plate and the second support plate in an up-and-down distribution state. The second support part includes a third support plate, a fourth support plate, and a connecting bar. The connecting bar horizontally connects the third support plate and the fourth support plate and distributes them at an up-and-down interval;

[0011] When the first support part and the second support part are both located at the bottom of the adsorption part, the third support plate is located below the first support plate, and the fourth support plate is located above the second support plate.

[0012] Furthermore, both the first support plate and the fourth support plate are slidably connected to the bottom of the adsorption part.

[0014] Furthermore, the bottom of the support frame can perform a reciprocating translational movement on the mounting table, and the moving direction of the support frame is perpendicular to the moving direction of the crawler wheels.

[0015] Furthermore, a counterweight is also arranged on the mounting table.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the present invention are embodied in:

[0017] The photovoltaic panel installation device of the present invention is provided with a mobile platform, a support frame and a photovoltaic panel adsorption mechanism.

[0029] The photovoltaic panel installation equipment of the present invention includes a mobile platform 1, a support frame 2 and a photovoltaic panel adsorption mechanism 3. The support frame 2 is arranged on the mobile platform 1. The photovoltaic panel adsorption mechanism 3 includes a fixed part 301 and an adsorption part 302. The fixed part 301 can be raised and lowered on the support frame 2. The adsorption part 302 is hinged to the fixed part 301 and can be rotated along the hinge to be parallel, vertical or inclined to the ground.

[0030] The photovoltaic panel installation device of the present invention is provided with a mobile platform 1, a support frame 2 and a photovoltaic panel adsorption mechanism 3. The photovoltaic panel adsorption mechanism 3 includes a fixed part 301 and an adsorption part 302. During the specific installation process of the photovoltaic panel, the mobile platform 1 is first moved to an open area, and the fixed part 301 drives the adsorption part 302 to be lowered to the lowest horizontal state. The adsorption part 302 rotates to a state parallel to the ground and adsorbs the photovoltaic panel. After adsorption, the adsorption part 302 rotates to a state perpendicular to the ground, and the fixed part 301 drives the adsorption part 302 to rise in height. Then, the mobile platform 1 moves the adsorption part 302 above the photovoltaic panel bracket to be installed. At this time, the adsorption part 302 rotates to a state inclined with the ground, and the inclination angle is consistent with the inclination angle of the photovoltaic panel bracket and the ground. Then, the photovoltaic panel on the adsorption part 302 is adjusted to be attached to the photovoltaic panel bracket through the mobile platform 1 and the fixed part 301. Finally, the worker connects the photovoltaic panel to the bracket.

[0031] The entire process uses mechanical equipment to transport and lift the photovoltaic panels, which has a high degree of mechanization, convenient operation, and saves time and effort; the personnel on the pile are responsible for connecting the photovoltaic panels and the photovoltaic panel brackets, and the personnel under the pile arrange the photovoltaic panels, and the piles are separated and do not interfere with each other, which enhances the installation efficiency; the adsorption part 302 is always perpendicular to the ground during the process of moving from an open area to the photovoltaic panel bracket to be installed, reducing the volume occupied by the equipment movement and meeting the characteristics of dense arrangement of pipe piles; and in the present invention, the lifting function of the fixing part 301 on the support frame 2 can be directly obtained through the lifting mechanism of the existing technology, which will not be described in detail here. The connection between the photovoltaic panel and the photovoltaic panel bracket can adopt a relatively simple threaded connection method.

[0032] In one embodiment, the adsorption portion 302 includes a fixed frame 3021, an adsorption assembly 3022, and an angle sensor 3023. The fixed frame 3021 is hingedly connected to the fixed portion 301, and the adsorption assembly 3022 is rotatably disposed within the fixed frame 3021. The angle sensor 3023 is disposed at the rotational connection between the fixed frame 3021 and the adsorption assembly 3022 and is capable of detecting the rotation angle of the adsorption assembly 3022. This design allows the angle sensor 3023 to measure the rotation angle, facilitating accurate attachment of the photovoltaic panel to the surface of the photovoltaic panel support and facilitating installation. Furthermore, the rotational connection of the adsorption assembly 3022 allows the fixed frame 3021 to remain parallel to the ground simply by rotating the adsorption assembly 3022 when attaching the photovoltaic panel to the photovoltaic panel support. In this embodiment, the fixed frame 3021 is configured to have a U-shaped structure.

[0033] In one embodiment, the adsorption assembly 3022 includes an adsorption platform 3024 and a plurality of adsorption parts 3025 that can be raised and lowered on the adsorption platform 3024, and the adsorption platform 3024 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 3021. With this design, the adsorption operation of the adsorption parts 3025 is facilitated by the raising and lowering of the adsorption parts 3025 on the adsorption platform 3024. In this embodiment, at least four adsorption parts 3025 are provided, which are distributed in two rows and two on the adsorption platform 3024, thereby improving the efficiency of the one-time adsorption of the adsorption parts 3025. The adsorption parts 3025 provided can use the vacuum suction cup structure in the prior art. The raising and lowering of the adsorption parts 3025 on the adsorption platform 3024 can be achieved by the linear drive mechanism in the prior art. The adsorption platform 3024 provided can be driven by the motor in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.

[0034] In one embodiment, the photovoltaic panel adsorption mechanism 3 further includes two electric push rods 307, one end of each of which is hinged to the two ends of the fixing frame 3021, and the other end of each of which is hinged to the two ends of the fixing frame 3021. This design allows the first electric push rod 307 to maintain the adsorption portion 302 in a vertical, horizontal, or tilted position relative to the ground.

[0035] In one embodiment, the photovoltaic panel adsorption mechanism 3 further includes a first support portion 303 for placing the photovoltaic panel, a first mounting plate 304 is provided on one side of the adsorption portion 302, the first mounting plate 304 is hinged to the fixed portion 301, the first support portion 303 is slidably provided on the first mounting plate 304, and the first support portion 303 can slide in or out of the bottom of the adsorption portion 302 along the first mounting plate 304. With this design, by providing the first support portion 303, the photovoltaic panel can be directly placed on the first support portion 303, which facilitates the adsorption of the photovoltaic panel by the adsorption portion 302, and in this embodiment, the first mounting plate 304 is provided on one side of the fixed frame 3021; the first support portion 303 provided can support at least four photovoltaic panels at a time, which can improve the working efficiency of the adsorption component 3025 when used once; the first support portion 303 provided The operation of sliding in or out of the bottom of the adsorption part 302 can be achieved by a linear drive mechanism in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here; in specific use, when the adsorption part 302 is at a lower position and remains parallel to the ground, the first support part 303 is located on the outside of the adsorption part 302. After the photovoltaic panel is placed on the first support part 303, the first support part 303 moves to the bottom of the adsorption part 302, and then the moving operation is achieved through the mobile platform 1. When the photovoltaic panel is specifically attached to the surface of the photovoltaic panel bracket, the adsorption part 302 is first kept parallel to the ground, the adsorption part 3025 adsorbs the photovoltaic panel, the first support part 303 moves to the outside of the adsorption part 302, and the adsorption platform 3024 is rotated.

[0036] In one embodiment, the photovoltaic panel adsorption mechanism 3 further includes a second support portion 305. On the other side of the adsorption portion 302, there is a second mounting plate 306. The second mounting plate 306 is hinged to the fixing portion 301. The second support portion 305 is slidably disposed on the second mounting plate 306, and the second support portion 305 can slide into or out of the bottom of the adsorption portion 302 along the second mounting plate 306. With such a design, by providing the second support portion 305, the number of photovoltaic panels that can be installed by the device at one time is further increased; and in this embodiment, the second mounting plate 306 is provided on the other side of the fixing frame 3021; the second support portion 305 can support at least four photovoltaic panels at a time, and the operation of the second support portion 305 sliding into or out of the bottom of the adsorption portion 302 can be realized by a linear driving mechanism in the prior art, which will not be elaborated here; in the specific use process, when the adsorption portion 302 is at a lower position and parallel to the ground, the second support portion 305 is also located outside the adsorption portion 302. After placing the photovoltaic panel on the second support portion 305, the second support portion 305 moves to the bottom of the adsorption portion 302. During the process of the adsorbent 3025 adsorbing the photovoltaic panel on the first support portion 303, the second support portion 305 moves to the outside of the adsorption portion 302. After installing the photovoltaic panel on the first support portion 303, the second support portion 305 moves to the bottom of the adsorption portion 302, and then the adsorption and installation steps can be repeated.

[0037] In one embodiment, the first support portion 303 includes a first support plate 3031, a second support plate 3032 horizontally disposed on one side of the first support plate 3031, and a support bar 3033 that connects the first support plate 3031 and the second support plate 3032 in an up-and-down distribution state. The second support portion 305 includes a third support plate 3051, a fourth support plate 3052, and a connecting bar 3053. The connecting bar 3053 horizontally connects the third support plate 3051 and the fourth support plate 3052 and is distributed at an up-and-down interval;

[0038] When both the first support portion 303 and the second support portion 305 are located at the bottom of the adsorption portion 302, the third support plate 3051 is located below the first support plate 3031, and the fourth support plate 3052 is located above the second support plate 3032. This design ensures that when the adsorption member 3025 is installed with photovoltaic panels, the number of photovoltaic panels adsorbed on each support portion is the same. When the adsorption member 3025 is installed with photovoltaic panels, the two support portions are located on the outer sides of the adsorption portion 302, thereby maintaining the weight balance on both sides of the adsorption portion 302 and maintaining the stability of the device. In this embodiment, to prevent the photovoltaic panels on the second support plate 3032 and the third support plate 3051 located below from sliding during the rotation of the adsorption portion 302, adsorption members can also be provided on the inner bottom of the second support plate 3032 and the third support plate 3051.

[0039] In one embodiment, the first support plate 3031 and the fourth support plate 3052 are both slidably connected to the bottom of the adsorption portion 302. This design can maintain the stability of the first support portion 303 and the second support portion 305 sliding in and out of the bottom of the adsorption portion 302.

[0040] In one embodiment, the mobile platform 1 includes a mounting platform 101 and two track wheels 102 respectively provided at the bottom of the mounting platform 101. In this design, by providing the track wheels 102, the photovoltaic panels can be stably transported and installed even in uneven areas.

[0041] In one embodiment, the bottom of the support frame 2 can perform reciprocating translational motion on the mounting platform 101, and the movement direction of the support frame 2 is perpendicular to the movement direction of the track wheels 102. This design, while aligning the movement directions of the support frame 2 and the track wheels 102, facilitates moving the photovoltaic panel to the photovoltaic panel support attachment to be installed. In this embodiment, the reciprocating translational motion of the support frame 2 on the mounting platform 101 can be achieved using existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0042] In one embodiment, a counterweight 103 is further provided on the mounting platform 101. This design ensures the stability of the entire device, and in this embodiment, the counterweight 103 is installed on the back of the mounting platform 101 compared to the support frame 2.
