Photovoltaic module support and installation method

Abstract

The present invention relates to the field of photovoltaic brackets, and in particular to a photovoltaic component bracket and an installation method, comprising a supporting mechanism, a loading and unloading mechanism and a locking mechanism. When installing photovoltaic components, the photovoltaic bracket generally has individual fixed installation, frame installation and centralized installation. The disadvantage of individual fixed installation is that it is relatively cumbersome and the installation speed is slow; the disadvantage of frame installation and centralized installation is that it is difficult to disassemble when a photovoltaic component fails, which is inconvenient for maintenance and replacement; the clamping component in the loading and unloading mechanism of the present invention clamps the four sides of the photovoltaic component through two front and rear symmetrical spring rods and L-shaped baffles at both ends of the spring rods. During installation, it is only necessary to pull the telescopic rod to the left to extend the two spring rods, and then put the photovoltaic component in, which is convenient and quick; a pressing plate is also installed on the L-shaped baffle through a connecting piece, and the photovoltaic component can be fixed from above. When the photovoltaic component fails and needs to be replaced, the connecting piece and the pressing plate can be removed to replace the photovoltaic component at that location.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of photovoltaic brackets, and in particular to a photovoltaic component bracket and an installation method. Background Art

[0002] Photovoltaic brackets are supporting structures for mounting solar photovoltaic modules, usually made of aluminum alloy or galvanized steel. These brackets are usually used to install solar photovoltaic panels on roofs, fields or other appropriate places to capture sunlight and convert it into electrical energy.

[0003] When installing photovoltaic modules through photovoltaic brackets, there are generally individual fixed installation, frame installation and centralized installation. Individual fixation is to fix the photovoltaic modules on the photovoltaic bracket through a large number of bolts and pressure plates. This installation method is cumbersome to operate and slow to install due to the large number of bolts and pressure plates required to be installed. Frame installation and centralized installation methods are to install the photovoltaic modules into the installation frame reserved on the photovoltaic bracket. Compared with individual installation, this installation method is simpler, but if one of the photovoltaic modules is damaged and needs to be replaced, since multiple photovoltaic modules are installed together as a whole, it is difficult to disassemble and inconvenient for maintenance and replacement.

[0004] After the photovoltaic components are installed on the photovoltaic bracket through the frame installation method, in order to maximize the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic system, it is sometimes necessary to adjust the angle of the photovoltaic panel according to the changes in lighting conditions caused by the season or other external environment. The general adjustment method is to disassemble and reassemble the legs of the photovoltaic bracket, and adjust the inclination angle of the photovoltaic component by changing the height of the legs on both sides.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the invention can be implemented in many different ways as defined and covered by the claims.

[0033] See also Figure 1 A photovoltaic module bracket includes a supporting mechanism 1, a loading and unloading mechanism 2 and a locking mechanism 3. The supporting mechanism 1 is connected to multiple loading and unloading mechanisms 2, and the loading and unloading mechanisms 2 located on the same straight line from the front to the rear are connected by the locking mechanism 3.

[0034] Before installing the photovoltaic module, the support mechanism 1 is first fixedly installed at the designated installation location, and then the photovoltaic modules are installed on the loading and unloading mechanism 2 in sequence. Finally, the loading and unloading mechanisms 2 installed on the same straight line in front and behind are locked by the locking mechanism 3.

[0035] During specific work, when the angle of the photovoltaic components needs to be adjusted according to changes in seasons or external environment, the support mechanism 1 can be directly adjusted manually; when some of the photovoltaic components fail or need to be replaced, they can be directly removed from the loading and unloading mechanism 2 and replaced.

[0036] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3The support mechanism 1 includes a mounting plate 11, a rectangular tube 12, a support rod 13, a hinge seat 14, an adjustment component 15, a cross frame 16 and a mounting frame group 17. The mounting plates 11 are grouped into two on the left and right sides, and multiple groups are evenly arranged in the front and back. The multiple groups of mounting plates 11 are fixedly connected to the specified installation position. The upper end surface of the mounting plate 11 is fixedly connected to the rectangular tube 12, and the support rod 13 is slidably connected to the rectangular tube 12. The support rod 13 and the rectangular tube 12 are jointly installed with the adjustment component 15. The top of the support rod 13 is rotatably connected to the hinge seat 14. The left and right sides are fixedly connected to the support rod 13. Two hinged seats 14 located in the same straight line are commonly connected with a cross frame 16, the hinged seat 14 at the upper end of the left support rod 13 is fixedly connected to the cross frame 16, and the hinged seat 14 at the upper end of the right support rod 13 is slidably connected to the cross frame 16 through a slide groove, and two mounting frame groups 17 are commonly fixedly connected to the multiple cross frames 16 from left to right, and the mounting frame group 17 includes two mounting frames arranged on the left and right, and a plurality of wire grooves 171 for passing the wires on the photovoltaic components are evenly opened on the lower end surface of the mounting frame, and the two mounting frame groups 17 are connected with a loading and unloading mechanism 2.

[0037] See also Figure 4 The adjustment component 15 includes a limit groove 151 and a self-locking module 152. The limit groove 151 is opened on the rectangular tube 12 from front to back. The limit groove 151 includes a parallelogram groove 1511, a straight groove 1512 and an arch groove 1513. The upper and lower vertices of the parallelogram groove 1511 are connected with the straight groove 1512. A plurality of arch grooves 1513 are evenly opened from top to bottom on the lower vertical section of the parallelogram groove 1511. The edge of the side wall above the arch groove 1513 is rounded. The limit groove 151 and the support rod 13 are internally connected with the self-locking module 152.

[0038] During the specific work, the photovoltaic component is first installed on the loading and unloading mechanism 2 manually, and then the position of the loading and unloading mechanism 2 and the photovoltaic component is fixed by the locking mechanism 3. When the inclination angle of the photovoltaic component needs to be adjusted due to changes in external lighting conditions, the height of the left and right support rods 13 in the rectangular tube 12 is adjusted according to needs. After the adjustment is completed, the position of the support rod 13 is automatically locked by the self-locking module 152. When the heights of the left and right support rods 13 are different, the stroke is replenished through the slide groove at the connection between the hinged seat 14 at the upper end of the right support rod 13 and the cross frame 16 to achieve angle adjustment. The adjustment process is simple and only one person is required to operate the entire process.

[0039] See also Figure 5The self-locking module 152 includes a mounting rod 1521, an L-shaped paddle 1522, a connecting handle 1523 and a round rod 1524. The mounting rod 1521 is fixedly penetrated at the lower end of the support rod 13. The lower positions of the outer walls at both ends of the mounting rod 1521 are rotatably connected with L-shaped paddles 1522. The L-shaped paddles 1522 are connected to the support rod 13 through a torsion spring. The support rod 13 is symmetrically rotatably connected with the connecting handle 1523 at a position located at the lower right corner of the mounting rod 1521. The connecting handle 1523 is composed of two upper and lower ring plates and a connecting plate fixedly connected between the ring plates. The two ring plates located at the bottom are rotatably connected with the round rod 1524 together. The outer side wall of the ring plate located at the top is provided with a notch 1525 and a slot 1526 at the upper and lower sides on the side away from the arch groove 1513. The end of the horizontal section of the L-shaped paddle 1522 abuts against the notch 1525.

[0040] See also Figure 2 and Figure 7 Taking the change of the self-locking module 152 located at the front end and on the right side as an example, the highest point, inflection point and lowest point of the notch 1525 are named points a, b and c respectively. In the initial state, the end of the L-shaped paddle 1522 abuts against point b, the lower end of the connecting handle 1523 tilts to the right, and the round rod 1524 is placed in the arched groove 1513, which can fix the lower end of the support rod 13.

[0041] When it is necessary to move the mounting frame group 17 upward, the mounting frame group 17 on that side needs to be adjusted upward, driving the support rod 13 to move upward synchronously. The round rod 1524 slides upward along the rounded corner of the upper edge of the arched groove 1513 due to the upward force and enters the edge of the upper arched groove 1513. At the same time, the connecting handle 1523 will rotate clockwise by a certain angle under the drive of the round rod 1524, so that the end of the horizontal section of the L-shaped paddle 1522 slides from point b to point c; when the height adjustment of the mounting frame group 17 is completed, the round rod 1524 also moves to the left side of the upper arched groove 1513. At this time, the L-shaped paddle 1522 will be pushed to the right under the action of the torsion spring and slide back to point b along point c, thereby driving the connecting handle 1523 to rotate counterclockwise, pushing the round rod 1524 into the arched groove 1513, and re-fixing the lower end of the support rod 13.

[0042] See also Figure 2 and Figure 8When the mounting bracket 17 needs to be moved downward, the mounting bracket 17 is first pulled upward to make the round rod 1524 slide into the upper straight groove 1512. When the round rod 1524 slides into the straight groove 1512, it drives the connecting handle 1523 to rotate clockwise at a larger angle, and then the end of the L-shaped paddle 1522 slides into the slot 1526 and is engaged therein. At this time, the mounting bracket 17 is moved downward again, and the round rod 1524 can slide downward along the parallelogram slot 1511 without entering the arch. In the shaped groove 1513, when the round rod 1524 slides from the parallelogram groove 1511 to the linear groove 1512 below, the round rod 1524 will move a distance to the right when passing the inclined section below the parallelogram groove 1511, so that the connecting handle 1523 will rotate counterclockwise by a certain angle, and the L-shaped paddle 1522 will also disengage from the slot 1526 and enter the missing groove 1525 again under the action of the torsion spring, and then the height of the mounting frame assembly 17 can be adjusted starting from the bottom of the missing groove 1525.

[0043] See also Figure 6 The loading and unloading mechanism 2 includes a clamping component 21 and a fixing component 22. The clamping component 21 is used to install the photovoltaic component. The clamping component 21 is connected to the mounting frame group 17. Four fixing components 22 for pressing and fixing the photovoltaic component from above are connected to the clamping component 21 in a matrix arrangement.

[0044] See also Figure 6 The clamping assembly 21 includes a spring rod 211, a slider 212, an L-shaped baffle 213 and a telescopic rod 214. Two spring rods 211 are symmetrically arranged front and back. The lower end surface of the fixed section of the spring rod 211 is symmetrically fixedly connected with two sliders 212. The two sliders 212 are slidably mounted in the mounting frame group 17. Both ends of the spring rod 211 are fixedly connected with L-shaped baffles 213. The two L-shaped baffles 213 on the left are fixedly connected by a telescopic rod 214. The horizontal section of the L-shaped baffle 213 in the left and right directions is connected with a fixing assembly 22.

[0045] See also Figure 6 The fixing assembly 22 includes a pressing plate 221, a connecting piece 222 and a rubber pad 223. The pressing plate 221 is installed on the horizontal section of the left and right directions of the L-shaped baffle 213 in a threaded manner through the connecting piece 222. The lower end surface of the pressing plate 221 is fixedly connected to the rubber pad 223.

[0046] During the specific operation, first adjust the length of the telescopic rod 214 according to the width of the photovoltaic component to be installed, then pull the telescopic rod 214 to the left, place the photovoltaic component to be installed on the mounting frame group 17 between the two spring rods 211, and then loosen the telescopic rod 214, and clamp the left and right ends of the photovoltaic component through the spring rod 211. At the same time, the pressure plate 221 and the rubber pad 223 also limit the photovoltaic component from the top. After the photovoltaic components on the same mounting frame group 17 are installed, the front and rear sides of the photovoltaic component are locked by the locking mechanism 3; after the installation is completed, when any of the photovoltaic components fails and needs to be removed, the fasteners and pressure plates 221 above the photovoltaic components to be replaced are removed, and then the photovoltaic components are replaced. After the replacement is completed, the fasteners and pressure plates 221 can be reinstalled.

[0047] See also Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Fig. 9 The locking mechanism 3 includes a long plate 31, a locking block 32 and a locking assembly 33. The number of the long plates 31 is two. The two long plates 31 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the mounting frame group 17. The locking block 32 is fixedly connected to the lower end surface of the fixed section of the spring rod 211. A locking groove 321 is provided on the locking block 32 to pass through the front and rear. The locking groove 321 includes a circular groove and two rectangular grooves that are symmetrically connected to both sides of the circular groove. A slot 311 corresponding to the locking groove 321 is provided on the long plate 31. The locking assembly 33 is connected to the slot 311 and the lock groove 321 that are located on the same straight line from front to back.

[0048] See also Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Fig. 9 The locking assembly 33 includes a locking rod 331, a clamping strip 332, a knob 333 and a seat plate 334. The locking rod 331 is inserted into the slot 311 and the locking slot 321 which are located in the same straight line from front to back. A plurality of clamping strips 332 matching the rectangular slots are evenly and symmetrically fixedly connected to the side wall of the locking rod 331 in the front and back. The front end of the locking rod 331 is fixedly connected to the knob 333. The rear long plate 31 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the seat plate 334 at the left and right sides of the rear end of the locking rod 331. The rear end of the locking rod 331 is fixedly connected between the two seat plates 334 by bolts and nuts.

[0049] The length of the clip 332 is the same as the width of the photovoltaic module. During specific operation, in the initial state, the clip 332 is in a horizontal state, so that the spring rod 211 can slide left and right on the mounting frame group 17, so that the photovoltaic module can be installed between the spring rods 211; after the photovoltaic module is installed between the two spring rods 211, the spacing between each photovoltaic module is first adjusted so that the clip 332 is located between the two locking blocks 32 under the symmetrical spring rods 211, and then the knob 333 is rotated ninety degrees to drive the clip 332 to rotate ninety degrees through the locking rod 331, and then the front and rear distance between the two locking blocks 32 under the two symmetrical spring rods 211 can be limited by the clip 332, and then the front and rear distance between the two spring rods 211 located on the same mounting frame group 17 and symmetrical to each other is also locked, and finally the end of the locking rod 331 is locked by a bolt and a nut, and the installation is completed.
