Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of photovoltaic brackets, and particularly relates to a positioning tooling and a using method for the legs of a photovoltaic bracket. Background Art
[0002] For the brackets of a photovoltaic system, the overall bracket is relatively large and mainly consists of front legs, rear legs, diagonal beams at the tops of the front legs and rear legs, reinforcement beams between the diagonal beams and the rear legs, and cross beams at the top of the diagonal beams. The photovoltaic frame is fixed on the linearly arranged cross beams.
[0003] For the installation of the front legs and rear legs, connecting pieces such as flange plates are arranged at the bottom ends of the legs and fixed on the ground. If the reinforcement requirements are relatively high, a concrete base also needs to be poured between the legs and the ground surface.
[0004] Since it is necessary to ensure the parallelism and flatness of the surface formed by the cross beams on the bracket, the slope and position accuracy requirements of the diagonal beams for support are also relatively high, and thus the position accuracy requirements of the legs are also relatively high.
[0005] Since the number of legs is also relatively large, a large amount of measurement and positioning of the legs need to be carried out by workers during installation, which will affect the installation efficiency of the workers. At the same time, manual assistance is required to ensure the perpendicularity of the legs to the ground during installation, which is not conducive to the operation of the workers, wastes manpower and affects the installation efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of the invention is to provide a positioning tooling for the legs of a photovoltaic bracket. By designing a new type of cross beam tooling, the cross beam can be positioned and restricted. Through the cooperation of the leg tooling and the cross beam, the legs are limited and positioned. The cross beam required for using the photovoltaic bracket is used as the guide and positioning for the linear arrangement of the legs, which is conducive to the operation of the workers, eliminates the need for redundant positioning and limiting, facilitates the installation of the legs by the workers, and saves the use of manpower and material resources.
[0007] To solve the above technical problems, the invention is realized through the following technical solutions:
[0008] The invention is a positioning tooling for the legs of a photovoltaic bracket, including a leg tooling and a cross beam tooling;
[0009] The leg tooling includes a U-shaped seat, side plates and clamping edges;
[0010] An edge seat is fixed at one side edge of the U-shaped seat. The edge seat is vertically arranged and perpendicularly distributed to the side of the U-shaped seat. A hole is opened on the end face of the edge seat, and an elastic rod is arranged in the hole. A fastening screw is arranged on the other side of the U-shaped seat;
[0011] One ends of a plurality of the elastic rods penetrate and are fixed at the edges of the side plates. The side plates are perpendicularly distributed to the edge seats;
[0012] The card edge is fixed to the end face of the side plate by screws. The card edge is distributed parallel to the side plate, and an adjustable cushion block is provided between the card edge and the side plate;

[0025] SS02 Place the crossbeam with the crossbeam tooling on the ground, ensure that the U-shaped frame faces upward, and determine the levelness and specific position of the crossbeam through tools;
[0026] Put the U-shaped seat on the crossbeam with the opening facing downwards. Determine the position of the first leg using a tool. After the position is determined, tighten the fastening screws to ensure the position of the leg tooling on the crossbeam.
[0027] Pull the side plate to move the leg to be installed to the inner wall of the side seat. Release the side plate, and the side plate will be driven by the spring to reset and clamp the leg.
