Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of photovoltaic inverter grid-connected technology, and in particular to a photovoltaic grid-connected inverter which is convenient for heat dissipation. Background Art
[0002] Photovoltaic inverter, also known as solar inverter, is one of the key components in solar photovoltaic system. Its function is to convert the direct current generated by solar panels into alternating current for use in power grid or household appliances. Photovoltaic inverter is one of the important system balances in photovoltaic array system and can be used with general AC power supply equipment. Solar inverter has special functions for photovoltaic array, such as maximum power point tracking and islanding effect protection. Photovoltaic inverter not only has direct-to-ac conversion function, but also has the function of maximizing the performance of solar cells and system fault protection. In summary, it has automatic operation and shutdown function, maximum power tracking control function, anti-single operation function (for grid-connected system), automatic voltage adjustment function (for grid-connected system), DC detection function (for grid-connected system), DC grounding detection function (for grid-connected system).
[0003] Most of the direct output of solar energy is 12VDC, 24VDC, and 48VDC. The effective conversion of the DC power generated by the system into AC power should be realized, so as to provide enough power for 220VAC appliances. Therefore, the DC-AC inverter is mainly selected. The main function of the inverter is to realize the effective conversion of DC power into AC power. Both solar cells and batteries are DC power sources. Therefore, once the load contains AC power, the inverter becomes an indispensable part. According to statistics, the reliability of electronic components decreases by 10% for every 2℃ increase in temperature. When the temperature rises to 50℃, the life span is only 1 / 6 of that at 25℃. Therefore, the electronic components must be effectively cooled to ensure the reliable operation of the devices. The heat dissipation problem is becoming an important factor affecting the development of electronic technology. For photovoltaic grid-connected inverters, due to their small single-unit power, natural air cooling is usually used. The heat sink is directly used on the power device of the equipment. Relying on the principle of hot air rising and cold air falling, the effective heat dissipation of the heat sink can be guaranteed.
[0004] After patent search, the Chinese invention patent with authorization number CN116073187B discloses a photovoltaic grid-connected inverter, including a main body, a protective component and a clamping component. A support frame is installed at the bottom end of the main body, and a connector is also connected to the main body. This photovoltaic grid-connected inverter is provided with a clamping component, and then under normal use, the protective cover is closed. At this time, the wind wheel is driven to rotate by the motor, so the wind generated by the rotating wind wheel blows to the rotating tube and then blows to the connecting tube and the connecting tube through the rotating tube, so it enters the airbag to expand the airbag, and then the expanded airbag squeezes the connecting wire, thereby clamping the connecting wire, relieving the pressure of the gravity of the connecting wire, thereby avoiding the loosening of the connecting wire due to gravity after the connecting wire falls. However, the structure of the patent is complex and the heat dissipation effect is poor, resulting in a substantial increase in the device structure and cost. Taking into account the compactness and heat dissipation effect of the assembly structure is the key point in the technical solution. Summary of the invention

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0032] Example 1
[0033] See also Figures 1 to 9 , an embodiment of the present invention comprises:
[0034] A photovoltaic grid-connected inverter for facilitating heat dissipation comprises a shell 1, a top plate 2 is movably connected to the surface at the upper end of the shell 1, a display screen 3 is fixedly arranged at the center of the top plate 2, a bottom plate 4 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the shell 1, a plurality of heat dissipation fins 5 are arranged on the back of the bottom plate 4, baffles 7 are arranged on both sides of the heat dissipation fins 5 on the left and right sides of the back of the bottom plate 4, rectangular grooves 8 are opened above and below the baffles 7, and an extension portion 9 is arranged at the bottom of the rectangular groove 8.
[0035] In this embodiment, the shell 1 is the peripheral structure of the inverter, which plays the role of bearing, containing and protecting.

[0037] In this embodiment, a strip hole 6 is opened on the bottom plate, and a buckle cover 10 is fixed at the rear end. The buckle cover 10 is located on the rear side of the strip hole 6. The design of the strip hole 6 increases the surface area of the heat dissipation fins, and also promotes air circulation to help heat dissipation. When the heat dissipation demand is large, the buckle cover 10 can be opened to increase air circulation and improve the heat dissipation effect; when the heat dissipation demand is not large, the buckle cover 10 can close the strip hole 6 to reduce the intrusion of dust and moisture.

[0040] Example 2
[0041] See also Figure 7A fixing frame 19 is fixedly connected above the top plate 2, a square hole 20 is opened on the fixing frame 19, and an acrylic baffle 21 is arranged on the square hole 20. The fixing frame 19 and the square hole 20 are designed to protect the display screen 3 on the top plate 2, and the acrylic baffle plays a protective role without blocking the content displayed on the display screen 3.
[0042] See also Fig. 9 A square hole 20 is provided on the fixed frame 19 with slide rails on the left and right sides respectively. The baffle 21 slides up and down on the fixed frame through the slide rails. The two sides of the baffle 21 are respectively slidably matched with the slide rails. The baffle 21 can slide, which is convenient for opening the baffle 21 in special circumstances such as fog in winter to observe the content on the display screen 3.
[0043] See also Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 The heat dissipation fins 5 are divided into two groups, one group is located on the left side of the strip hole 6, and the other group is located on the right side of the strip hole 6. Each group of heat dissipation fins 5 is longitudinally equidistantly distributed on the bottom plate 4 and is perpendicular to the bottom plate 4.
[0044] In this embodiment, the heat dissipation fins 5 are made of metal, such as aluminum or copper. Due to their high thermal conductivity, they can quickly conduct heat from the inside of the inverter to the outside. One group is located on the left side of the strip hole 6, and the other group is located on the right side of the strip hole 6. Each group of heat dissipation fins 5 are distributed on the bottom plate 4 at equal intervals in the longitudinal direction and are perpendicular to the bottom plate 4. This layout helps to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the photovoltaic grid-connected inverter.
[0045] Specifically, there are two photovoltaic input interfaces 13 and two mains interfaces 14 . The photovoltaic input interfaces 13 and the mains interfaces 14 are aligned with each other, and the two photovoltaic input interfaces 13 and the two mains interfaces 14 are aligned with each other, which is convenient for installation and connection.
[0046] See also Figure 4 and Figure 8 In this embodiment, screw holes are opened around the strip hole 6, and the buckle cover 10 is fixed to the base plate 4 by positioning bolts. This design facilitates the installation, maintenance and disassembly of the buckle cover 10. The positioning bolts of the buckle cover 10 are connected to the buckle cover 10 in an integrated manner. When installing, align the positioning bolts with the screw holes around the strip hole 6 and tighten the bolts. When disassembling, loosen the positioning bolts. Due to the integrated connection method, the positioning bolts will not fall off, and the inconvenience caused by the loss of the bolts after the buckle cover 10 is disassembled can be prevented.
[0047] Specifically, a cooling fan is provided inside the shell 1, and cooling ports are provided on the two baffles 7. This design shows that in addition to the cooling fins 5, the photovoltaic grid-connected inverter also has a special cooling fan to ensure the temperature control of the photovoltaic inverter during operation, improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the inverter, and effectively dissipate the heat generated by the components in the shell 1. The top plate 2 and the bottom plate 4 are both made of aluminum alloy. Aluminum alloy is widely used in the construction of electronic equipment due to its light weight and good heat dissipation performance. The top plate 2 and the bottom plate 4 of the photovoltaic grid-connected inverter are made of aluminum alloy, which can not only reduce its own weight but also improve the heat dissipation effect.
[0048] The photovoltaic grid-connected inverter provided by the present invention is designed to improve the heat dissipation capacity of the photovoltaic grid-connected inverter, ensuring that the equipment will not suffer performance degradation or shortened life due to excessive temperature while operating efficiently. At the same time, the structure is compact and not only simple in structure, but also easy to load and unload.
[0049] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the parts not described in detail are all prior art.
