The photovoltaic module 200 includes a photovoltaic frame 210. The photovoltaic frame 210 includes two first frames 2101 and a second frame 2103 opposite to each other in the first direction X. The frame structure 100 includes a plurality of frame assemblies 10, and the plurality of frame assemblies 10 surround a first space 110. The first space 110 is used to install the photovoltaic module 200. The frame assembly 10 includes a frame 11 and a mounting frame 17 arranged on the inner side of the frame 11. The mounting frame 17 is connected to the first frame 2101. The quick-release assembly 300 passes through the mounting frame 17 and the first frame 2101 and / or the second frame 2103 to connect the first frame 2101 and / or the second frame 2103 with the mounting frame 17.

[0041] The frame structure 100 may be made of metal and / or non-metallic materials, and metal materials include but are not limited to aluminum, iron, steel or aluminum alloys, and non-metallic materials include but are not limited to plastics. Exemplarily, the frame structure 100 may be made of metal materials, for example, the frame structure 100 may be made of aluminum alloy, which can improve the structural strength of the frame structure 100, enhance the ability of the photovoltaic awning 1000 to resist the external environment (such as wind, rain, snow, etc.), and ensure the stability and reliability of the photovoltaic awning 1000. It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the overall shape of the frame structure 100 may include but are not limited to square, cylindrical and diamond shapes. In this way, the frame structure 100 can adapt to the installation of photovoltaic modules 200 of different sizes and shapes.

[0042] The photovoltaic assembly 200 is a structure in the photovoltaic awning 1000 that can convert solar energy into electrical energy. The photovoltaic assembly 200 can be installed on the top of the frame structure 100 or at a specific installation position on the frame structure 100. In certain embodiments of the present application, the photovoltaic assembly 200 includes a photovoltaic frame 210 and a photovoltaic panel 230, and the photovoltaic panel 230 is used to convert solar energy into electrical energy. The photovoltaic panel 230 can be different types of solar energy conversion devices such as monocrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon or thin-film solar cells. Among them, the user can choose photovoltaic panels 230 of different efficiencies and sizes according to usage requirements and the frame structure 100. The photovoltaic frame 210 includes two first frames 2101 and a second frame 2103 that are opposite to each other in a first direction X. The first frame 2101 and the second frame 2103 can be in the width direction of the frame structure 100 (i.e. Figure 1 In the X direction), the two portions are spaced apart from each other, and can also be spaced apart in the length direction of the frame structure 100 (i.e. Figure 1 The intervals in the Y direction are relatively small.

[0043] In some embodiments, the photovoltaic assembly 200 can be installed on the frame structure 100 in a detachable connection manner, so that the photovoltaic assembly 200 can be easily removed from the frame structure 100 when it needs to be repaired or replaced. Among them, the detachable connection method includes but is not limited to bolt connection and snap connection. In other embodiments, the photovoltaic assembly 200 can be installed on the frame structure 100 in a non-detachable connection manner, so that the bonding strength between the photovoltaic assembly 200 and the frame structure 100 can be improved, the ability of the photovoltaic awning 1000 to resist external environmental factors can be improved, and the stability and reliability of the photovoltaic awning 1000 can be ensured. Among them, the non-detachable connection method includes but is not limited to bonding or welding.

It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the energy storage battery may be a lithium-ion battery, a lead-acid battery, or other types of rechargeable batteries.

[0044] The frame assembly 10 is a structure in the frame structure 100 for encapsulating and fixing the photovoltaic assembly 200. The photovoltaic assembly 200 can be installed in a first space 110 formed by connecting multiple frame assemblies 10 end to end, and the periphery of the photovoltaic assembly 200 can be connected to the frame assembly 10, so as to ensure the stability of the photovoltaic assembly 200 installed in the frame structure 100. The frame assembly 10 can be made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials, such as aluminum alloy, etc., so as to meet the use requirements of the frame structure 100 in a long-term outdoor environment. The cross-sectional shape of the first space 110 may include but is not limited to regular shapes or irregular shapes such as square, circular, triangular and diamond. In the embodiment of the present application, only the cross-sectional shape of the first space 110 is a square as an example for explanation. At this time, the frame assembly 10 may include four, and the four frame assemblies 10 together enclose the first space 110.

[0045] In some embodiments, the frame structure 100 further includes a beam assembly 20. The opposite ends of the beam assembly 20 are respectively connected to the two opposite frame assemblies 10, and the first space 110 is divided into a plurality of second spaces 120. The beam assembly 20 includes a beam 21 and a loading rack 23 disposed on opposite sides of the beam 21. Specifically, the frame structure 100 is a structure in the photovoltaic awning 1000 that can provide installation and support for the photovoltaic assembly 200.

[0046] The crossbeam assembly 20 is a structure used to strengthen and support the frame structure 100. The crossbeam assembly 20 forms a stable support structure by connecting two opposite frame assemblies 10, which is conducive to more stable installation of the photovoltaic assembly 200. Specifically, the crossbeam assembly 20 can divide the first space 110 into multiple second spaces 120, so that the photovoltaic assembly 200 can be independently installed and supported in the second space 120, thereby not only improving the stability of the photovoltaic awning 1000, but also more effectively utilizing the overall space enclosed by the frame assembly 10 (i.e., the first space 110), maximizing the number of photovoltaic assemblies 200 installed, and improving the power generation capacity of the photovoltaic awning 1000.

[0047] More specifically, the loading rack 23 and the mounting rack 17 are used to carry the photovoltaic assembly 200. In the present application, the crossbeam 21 extends along the second direction Y, the loading rack 23 is arranged on the opposite sides of the crossbeam 21 in the first direction X, and the mounting rack 17 is arranged on the side of the frame assembly 10 close to the first space 110. In one embodiment, the mounting rack 17 is engaged and connected with the first frame 2101 of the outermost photovoltaic assembly 200, and the quick-release assembly 300 passes through the loading rack 23 and the second frame 2103 of the outermost photovoltaic assembly 200; in another embodiment, the loading rack 23 is engaged and connected with the first frame 2101 of the outermost photovoltaic assembly 200, and the quick-release assembly 300 passes through the mounting rack 17 and the second frame 2103 of the outermost photovoltaic assembly 200. The present application is described with the embodiment in which the loading rack 23 is engaged and connected with the first frame 2101 of the outermost photovoltaic assembly 200, and the quick-release assembly 300 passes through the mounting rack 17 and the second frame 2103 of the outermost photovoltaic assembly 200. It is understandable that the mounting frame 17 is engaged with the first frame 2101 of the outermost photovoltaic assembly 200 , and the quick-release assembly 300 passing through the loading frame 23 and the second frame 2103 of the outermost photovoltaic assembly 200 also has at least the same beneficial effect.

[0048] The loading rack 23 is snap-connected with the first frame 2101 of the outermost photovoltaic assembly 200. The assembly process of the snap-connection does not require additional tools or equipment, and the assembly can be completed by a simple push-in or press action, thereby improving assembly efficiency. At the same time, the snap-connection does not require the use of screws, glue or other fasteners, thereby reducing the consumption and cost of additional materials. The quick-release assembly 300 is passed through the mounting frame 17 and the second frame 2103 to connect the second frame 2103 and the mounting frame 17. The quick-release assembly 300 can be one or more. When the second frame 2103 and the mounting frame 17 need to be connected, the quick-release assembly 300 can be quickly passed through and installed on the mounting frame 17 and the second frame 2103. When the second frame 2103 and the mounting frame 17 do not need to be connected, the quick-release assembly 300 can be removed from the mounting frame 17 and the second frame 2103, so the quick-release assembly 300 is easy to replace.

[0049] In one installation method, the photovoltaic component 200 is placed on the loading frame 23 and the mounting frame 17, and the first frame 2101 is snap-connected with the loading frame 23, which can provide basic positioning and fixation for the installation of the photovoltaic component 200. After the first frame 2101 is snap-connected with the loading frame 23, the quick-release assembly 300 is passed through the mounting frame 17 and the second frame 2103 to further fix the mounting frame 17 and the second frame 2103, thereby completing the connection between the photovoltaic component 200 and the frame structure 100.

[0050] In the photovoltaic awning 1000 of the embodiment of the present application, the first frame 2101 of the photovoltaic module 200 is connected to the frame structure 100 by a snap-fit ​​connection, and the second frame 2103 of the photovoltaic module 200 is connected to the frame structure 100 by a quick-release assembly 300. On the one hand, it can ensure a firm connection between the photovoltaic module 200 and the frame structure 100 and improve the stability of the photovoltaic awning 100. On the other hand, the quick-release assembly 300 is detachable, which is conducive to the separation of the photovoltaic module 200 and the frame structure 100, thereby facilitating the maintenance and replacement of the photovoltaic module 200 and the frame structure 100.

[0051] See also Figures 2 to 4In some embodiments, the mounting frame 17 includes a bearing plate 173, the second frame 2103 includes a first limiting portion 21033, and the first limiting portion 21033 is supported on the bearing plate 173. The quick release assembly 300 includes a first limiting member 310, a second limiting member 330, a connecting member 350, and a handle 370. The first limiting member 310 is used to abut against one of the bearing plate 173 and the first limiting portion 21033 to limit the movement of the photovoltaic assembly 200 or the frame assembly 10 along the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) of the photovoltaic assembly 200. The second limiting member 330 is used to abut against the other of the bearing plate 173 and the first limiting portion 21033 to limit the movement of the photovoltaic assembly 200 or the frame assembly 10 in the reverse direction Z2 of the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) of the photovoltaic assembly 200. The connecting member 350 penetrates the second frame 2103 and the frame 11 body, and the first limiting member 310 and the second limiting member 330 are both sleeved on the connecting member 350. The handle 370 is rotatably connected to the connecting member 350 via the connecting shaft 390. The quick release assembly 300 has a locked state and an unlocked state. When the quick release assembly 300 is in the locked state, the distance between the connecting shaft 390 and the first limiting member 310 in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) is greater than the distance between the connecting shaft 390 and the first limiting member 310 in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) when the quick release assembly 300 is in the unlocked state.

[0052] Specifically, the mounting frame 17 includes a connecting plate 171 and a bearing plate 173, and the connecting plate 171 is connected to the frame 11 to fix the mounting frame 17 on the frame 11. The connecting plate 171 is connected to the bearing plate 173, and the bearing plate 173 extends from the connecting plate 171 toward the center direction of the second space 120, and the first limiting portion 21033 is supported on the bearing plate 173, and the bearing plate 173 can provide support force for the first limiting portion 21033 to prevent the first limiting portion 21033 from falling.

[0053] In one embodiment, Figure 3As shown, the first limiting member 310 is used to abut against the first limiting portion 21033 to limit the positive Z1 movement of the photovoltaic assembly 200 relative to the frame assembly 10 along the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) of the photovoltaic assembly 200; the second limiting member 330 is used to abut against the supporting plate 173 to limit the reverse Z2 movement of the frame assembly 10 relative to the photovoltaic assembly 200 along the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) of the photovoltaic assembly 200. In another embodiment, the first limiting member 310 is used to abut against the supporting plate 173 to limit the reverse Z2 movement of the frame assembly 10 relative to the photovoltaic assembly 200 along the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) of the photovoltaic assembly 200; the second limiting member 330 is used to abut against the first limiting portion 21033 to limit the positive Z1 movement of the photovoltaic assembly 200 relative to the frame assembly 10 along the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) of the photovoltaic assembly 200. This application is described by assuming that the first limiting member 310 is located above the first limiting portion 21033 and abuts against the first limiting portion 21033, and the second limiting member 330 is located below the carrying plate 173 and abuts against the carrying plate 173. It can be understood that the first limiting member 310 is located below the carrying plate 173 and abuts against the carrying plate 173, and the second limiting member 330 is located above the first limiting portion 21033 and abuts against the first limiting portion 21033, and the detailed description is not expanded in this article.

[0054] The connecting member 350 penetrates the first limiting portion 21033 and the carrying plate 173 in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2), wherein the portion of the connecting member 350 extending from the first limiting portion 21033 is connected to the first limiting member 310, and the portion of the connecting member 350 extending from the carrying plate 173 is connected to the second limiting member 330. The first limiting member 310 and the second limiting member 330 are both sleeved on the connecting member 350 and can move on the connecting member 350 to adjust the distance between the first limiting member 310 and the second limiting member 330 in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2).

[0055] The first limiting member 310 is used to limit the positive Z1 movement of the photovoltaic component 200 relative to the frame component 10 along the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) of the photovoltaic component 200. The first limiting member 310 can be one or more. In the present application, the first limiting member 310 is one. The material of the first limiting member 310 includes but is not limited to plastic, aluminum alloy, copper, iron, steel and carbon fiber composite materials. Exemplarily, when the material of the first limiting member 310 is plastic, the first limiting member 310 has low cost and light weight. When the material of the first limiting member 310 is metal such as aluminum alloy, the first limiting member 310 has high strength, good wear resistance and long service life.

[0056] The second limiting member 330 is used to limit the reverse Z2 movement of the frame assembly 10 relative to the photovoltaic assembly 200 along the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) of the photovoltaic assembly 200. The second limiting member 330 can be one or more. In the present application, the second limiting member 330 is one. The material of the second limiting member 330 includes but is not limited to plastic, aluminum alloy, copper, iron, steel and carbon fiber composite materials. Exemplarily, when the material of the second limiting member 330 is plastic, the second limiting member 330 has a lower cost and a lighter weight. When the material of the second limiting member 330 is a metal such as an aluminum alloy, the second limiting member 330 has a higher strength, good wear resistance and a longer service life.

[0057] The handle 370 is a structure used by the user to hold and change the state of the quick-release assembly 300. The handle 370 is sleeved on one end of the connecting member 350 connected to the second limiting member 330, that is, in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2), the second limiting member 330 is located between the handle 370 and the first limiting member 310. Further, in the positive direction Z1 of the thickness direction, the connecting member 350 sequentially passes through the handle 370, the second limiting member 330, the bearing plate 173, the first limiting portion 21033 and the first limiting member 310. The handle 370 is rotatably connected to the connecting member 350 through the connecting shaft 390, and the rotation process drives the distance between the connecting shaft 390 and the first limiting member 310 relative to the bearing plate 173 or the first limiting member 310 in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) to change, so as to put the quick-release assembly 300 in the locked state ( Figure 6 shown) and unlocked state ( Figure 5 In the process of switching from the unlocked state to the locked state, that is, from Figure 5 The status shown is switched to Figure 6 During the state shown in the figure, the rotation of the handle 370 (clockwise R1 rotation in the present application) can increase the distance between the connecting shaft 390 and the first limiting member 310 in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2), so as to compress the gap between the first limiting member 310, the first limiting portion 21033, the supporting plate 173 and the second limiting member 330, thereby clamping the first limiting portion 21033 and the supporting plate 173, and then fixing the photovoltaic module 200 on the frame structure 100. In the process of switching from the locked state to the unlocked state, that is, from the locked state to the unlocked state, Figure 6 The status shown is switched to Figure 5 During the state shown, the rotation of the handle 370 (counterclockwise rotation R2 in the present application) can reduce the distance between the connecting shaft 390 and the first limiting member 310 in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2), so that the first limiting member 310, the first limiting portion 21033, the supporting plate 173 and the second limiting member 330 are no longer clamped, and the first limiting portion 21033 and the supporting plate 173 can move relative to each other, thereby enabling the photovoltaic assembly 200 to be removed from the frame structure 100.

[0058] See also Figures 3 to 6 In some embodiments, when the quick-release assembly 300 is in a locked state, one of the supporting plate 173 and the first limiting portion 21033 abuts against the first limiting member 310 and forms a first force F1, and the other of the supporting plate 173 and the first limiting portion 21033 abuts against the second limiting member 330 and forms a second force F2; when the quick-release assembly 300 is in an unlocked state, one of the supporting plate 173 and the first limiting portion 21033 abuts against the first limiting member 310 and forms a third force F3, and the other of the supporting plate 173 and the first limiting portion 21033 abuts against the second limiting member 330 and forms a fourth force F4, and the first force F1 is greater than the third force F3, and the second force F2 is greater than the fourth force F4.

[0059] As described above, the present application takes the example that the first limiting member 310 is located above the first limiting portion 21033 and abuts against the first limiting portion 21033, and the second limiting member 330 is located below the supporting plate 173 and abuts against the supporting plate 173, and will not be repeated in the following text. Figure 6 When the quick release assembly 300 is in the locked state, the first limiting member 310 abuts against the first limiting portion 21033 and applies a first force F1 to the first limiting portion 21033, and the direction of the first force F1 is the reverse direction Z2 of the thickness direction. The second limiting member 330 abuts against the supporting plate 173 and applies a second force F2 to the supporting plate 173, and the direction of the second force F2 is the positive direction Z1 of the thickness direction. Figure 5 When the quick-release assembly 300 is in the unlocked state, the first limiting member 310 abuts against the first limiting portion 21033 and applies a third force F3 to the first limiting portion 21033, and the direction of the third force F3 is the opposite direction Z2 of the thickness direction. The second limiting member 330 abuts against the supporting plate 173 and applies a fourth force F4 to the supporting plate 173, and the direction of the fourth force F4 is the positive direction Z1 of the thickness direction.

[0060] In the process of switching from the unlocked state to the locked state (i.e. from Figure 5 Switch to Figure 6), on the one hand, the handle 370 rotates in the clockwise direction R1 and drives the connecting shaft 390 to move in the opposite direction Z2 of the thickness direction, so the connecting shaft 390 exerts a force in the opposite direction Z2 on the connecting member 350. Further, the first limiting member 310 can be a nut and is connected to the connecting member 350 by a thread, so there is no relative displacement in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) between the first limiting member 310 and the connecting member 350, and the force in the Z2 direction exerted by the connecting shaft 390 on the connecting member 350 is transmitted to the first limiting member 310. After receiving the force in the Z2 direction, the first limiting member 310 further abuts against the first limiting portion 21033 and forms the first force F1 in the locking position. Therefore, in the process of switching from the unlocked state to the locked state, the force exerted by the first limiting member 310 on the first limiting portion 21033 is changed from the third force F3 to the first force F1, and is gradually increased.

[0061] On the other hand, the second limiting member 330 is sleeved with the connecting member 350. The second limiting member 330 can slide or deform on the connecting member 350 to change the distance between the first limiting member 310 and the connecting shaft 390 in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) under the action of force. The second limiting member 330 abuts the supporting plate 173 in the Z1 direction and abuts the supporting surface in the Z2 direction. The supporting surface can be a part of the connecting member 350 or a part of the handle 370, or can include a part of the handle 370 and a part of the connecting member 350, that is, the supporting plate 173 can abut both the handle 370 and the connecting member 350. The present application is described with the supporting surface as a part of the connecting member 350. The supporting surface can bear the second limiting member 330 and provide a force in the Z1 direction to the second limiting member 330. In the process of switching from the unlocked state to the locked state (i.e., from the unlocked state to the locked state), the second limiting member 330 can abut against the supporting surface. Figure 5 Switch to Figure 6 ), the handle 370 rotates in the clockwise direction R1 and drives the connecting shaft 390 to move in the reverse direction Z2, and causes the abutting surface to move in the Z1 direction, thereby the connecting member 350 applies a force in the Z1 direction to the second limiting member 330, and the Z1 direction force is transmitted to the bearing plate 173 to form a second force F2 in the locked position, and the first force F1 and the second force F2 are in opposite directions. Therefore, in the process of switching from the unlocked state to the locked state, the force applied by the second limiting member 330 to the bearing plate 173 is changed from the fourth force F4 to the second force F2, and is gradually increased.

[0062] Therefore, in the process of switching from the unlocked state to the locked state, the clamping force between the first limiting member 310 and the second limiting member 330 gradually increases, which can clamp the carrier plate 173 and the first limiting portion 21033, thereby clamping the photovoltaic module 200 and the frame structure 100. The second limiting member 330 can be made of soft and elastic materials, such as silicone, rubber or polyvinyl chloride. In addition, the second limiting member 330 is arranged between the carrier plate 173 and the abutting surface, which can reduce the wear caused by the contact between the carrier plate 173 and the connecting member 350, and help to extend the service life of the carrier plate 173 and the connecting member 350. The second limiting member 330 can also be made of a high-strength material such as aluminum alloy, which has high strength and good wear resistance.

[0063] In the process of switching from the locked state to the unlocked state (i.e. from Figure 6 Switch to Figure 5 ), on the one hand, the handle 370 rotates in the counterclockwise direction R2 and drives the connecting shaft 390 to move in the positive direction Z1 in the thickness direction, so the connecting shaft 390 exerts a positive force Z1 on the connecting member 350. Further, the first limiting member 310 can be a nut and is threadedly connected to the connecting member 350, so there is no relative displacement in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) between the first limiting member 310 and the connecting member 350, and the force in the Z1 direction applied by the connecting shaft 390 to the connecting member 350 is transmitted to the first limiting member 310. After the first limiting member 310 is subjected to the force in the Z1 direction, the force abutting against the first limiting portion 21033 is continuously reduced to form a third force F3 in the unlocking position, and the third force F3 can be small enough to release the restriction of the first limiting member 310 on the first limiting portion 21033.

[0064] On the other hand, the handle 370 rotates in the counterclockwise direction R2 and drives the connecting shaft 390 to move in the positive direction Z1, and the abutting surface moves in the Z2 direction. The second limiting member 330 abuts against the supporting plate 173 in the Z1 direction and against the abutting surface in the Z2 direction. The abutting surface can be a part of the connecting member 350 or a part of the handle 370, and can also include a part of the handle 370 and a part of the connecting member 350. The present application describes the abutting surface as a part of the connecting member 350. The abutting surface can support the second limiting member 330 and provide a force in the Z1 direction to the second limiting member 330. In the process of switching from the locked state to the unlocked state (i.e., from the locked state to the unlocked state), the second limiting member 330 abuts against the supporting surface. Figure 6 Switch to Figure 5 ), the handle 370 rotates in the counterclockwise direction R2 and drives the connecting shaft 390 to move in the positive direction Z1 in the thickness direction, and the supporting surface moves in the Z2 direction. As a result, the Z1 direction force applied by the connecting member 350 to the second limiting member 330 is continuously reduced, and a fourth force F4 is formed in the unlocked state. The fourth force F4 can be small enough to release the restriction of the second limiting member 330 on the supporting plate 173.

[0065] Therefore, in the process of switching from the locked state to the unlocked state, the clamping force between the first limiting member 310 and the second limiting member 330 is continuously reduced, so that the supporting plate 173 and the first limiting portion 21033 can be loosened, thereby releasing the connection between the photovoltaic component 200 and the frame structure 100, and the photovoltaic component 200 can be removed from the frame structure 100.

[0066] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) of the photovoltaic module 200, the carrier plate 173 includes a first surface 1731 and a second surface 1732 opposite to each other, the first stopper 21033 includes a first surface 21036 and a second surface 21037 opposite to each other, and the carrier plate 173 also includes a third surface 1733 connecting the first surface 1731 and the second surface 1732. The carrier plate 173 is provided with a first notch 1735 that passes through the first surface 1731, the second surface 1732, and the third surface 1733, the first stopper 21033 also includes a third surface 21038 that connects the first surface 21036 and the second surface 21037, and the first stopper 21033 is provided with a second notch 21039 that passes through the first surface 21036, the second surface 21037, and the third surface 21038, and the first notch 1735 and the second notch 21039 are at least partially aligned to allow the connector 350 to pass through.

[0067] Specifically, the first surface 1731 and the second surface 1732 are two surfaces of the bearing plate 173 facing each other in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2), wherein the first surface 1731 faces the Z1 direction, the second surface 1732 faces the Z2 direction, and the third surface 1733 connects the first surface 1731 and the second surface 1732. The first notch 1735 can be one or more, and in the present application, one bearing plate 173 is provided with two first notches 1735. The first surface 21036 and the second surface 21037 are two surfaces of the first limiting portion 21033 facing each other in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2), wherein the first surface 21036 faces the Z1 direction, the second surface 21037 faces the Z2 direction, and the third surface 21038 connects the first surface 21036 and the second surface 21037. The second notch 21039 can be one or more, and in the present application, one first limiting portion 21033 is provided with two second notches 21039. The first notch 1735 and the second notch 21039 are at least partially aligned, so that one photovoltaic assembly 200 can have two connectors 350 passing through the first notch 1735 and the second notch 21039, that is, one photovoltaic assembly 200 can be installed on the frame assembly 10 through two quick-release assemblies 300, and the two quick-release assemblies 300 can provide redundancy. In the event that one quick-release assembly 300 fails to work, the other quick-release assembly 300 can continue to work to connect the photovoltaic assembly 200 and the frame structure 100. At the same time, one photovoltaic assembly 200 is installed on the frame assembly 10 through two quick-release assemblies 300, and the relative positions of the two quick-release assemblies 300 on the frame assembly 10 can be reasonably designed so that the photovoltaic assembly 200 can be installed on the frame assembly 10 in the most stable manner to adapt to harsh application environments such as strong winds, heavy rains, and earthquakes.

[0068] The first notch 1735 penetrates the first surface 1731 and the second surface 1732, and the second notch 21039 penetrates the first surface 21036 and the second surface 21037, so that the connector 350 can pass through the first limiting portion 21033 and the bearing plate 173, thereby installing the first limiting member 310 and the second limiting member 330. The first notch 1735 penetrates the third surface 1733, and the second notch 21039 penetrates the third surface 21038, so that when installing or removing the connector 350, it can be directly removed from the part penetrated by the third surface 1733 and the third surface 21038, without the need to accurately align the connector 350 with the space where the first notch 1735 and the second notch 21039 overlap in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2), and then fix the connector 350. Therefore, the first notch 1735 penetrates the third surface 1733, and the second notch 21039 penetrates the third surface 21038, so that the installation of the quick release assembly 300 is simpler and the installation efficiency is improved. It should be noted that the number of quick-release assemblies 300 is not limited to one or two as mentioned above, but may also be three, four or even more, which are not listed here one by one.

[0069] In one installation method, the photovoltaic component 200 is placed on the mounting frame 17 and the loading frame 23, the photovoltaic component 200 is engaged with the loading frame 23, and aligned with the first notch 1735 and the second notch 21039, the connecting member 350 is inserted into the first notch 1735 and the second notch 21039, and then the first limiting member 310 is connected and fixed to the connecting member 350, and finally the handle 370 is rotated 180 degrees in the clockwise direction R1 to lock the photovoltaic component 200 and the frame structure 100; correspondingly, in a disassembly method, the handle 370 is rotated 180 degrees in the counterclockwise direction R2, the quick-release component 300 is removed from the first notch 1735 and the second notch 21039, and the engagement connection between the photovoltaic component 200 and the loading frame 23 is loosened, so that the photovoltaic component 200 can be removed from the frame structure 100.

[0070] See also Figures 4 to 6 In some embodiments, in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2), the handle 370 includes a first side 3071 and a second side 3072. When the quick release assembly 300 is in a locked state, the first side 3071 of the handle 370 is closer to the first limiting member 310 than the second side 3072 of the handle 370; when the quick release assembly 300 is in an unlocked state, the second side 3072 of the handle 370 is closer to the first limiting member 310 than the first side 3071 of the handle 370.

[0071] Specifically, in the process of switching from the unlocked state to the locked state (from Figure 5 The status shown is switched to Figure 6In the process of switching from the locked state to the unlocked state (from the locked state to the unlocked state), the handle 370 rotates in the clockwise direction R1. In the locked state, the first side 3071 of the handle 370 is closer to the first limiting member 310 than the second side 3072 of the handle 370. Figure 6 The status shown is switched to Figure 5 During the process of the state shown in the figure, the handle 370 rotates in the counterclockwise direction R2. In the unlocked state, the second side 3072 of the handle 370 is closer to the first limiting member 310 than the first side 3071 of the handle 370. Exemplarily, the surface where the first side 3071 of the handle 370 is located is recessed from the first side 3071 to the second side 3072. In this way, the user can better identify the locked state and the unlocked state.

[0072] See also Figures 4 to 6 In some embodiments, the handle 370 includes a grip portion 371 and a connection portion 373. The grip portion 371 is used for a user to grip so that the handle 370 rotates around the connection shaft 390. The connection portion 373 is connected to the grip portion 371 and is connected to the connection member 350 through the connection shaft 390. The connection portion 373 is connected to the connection shaft 390 at an eccentric position of the connection portion 373.

[0073] Specifically, in some embodiments, the grip portion 371 and the connection portion 373 are an integral structure, that is, the grip portion 371 and the connection portion 373 are an integral structure, thereby improving the bonding strength between the grip portion 371 and the connection portion 373, preventing the grip portion 371 and the connection portion 373 from being separated during the operation of the handle 370, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the operation of the handle 370. In other embodiments, the grip portion 371 and the connection portion 373 are split structures, that is, the grip portion 371 and the connection portion 373 are two different structures. In one example, the grip portion 371 and the connection portion 373 can be combined together in a detachable connection manner, and the detachable connection manner includes but is not limited to a snap connection or a threaded connection. In another example, the grip portion 371 and the connection portion 373 can be combined together in a non-detachable connection manner, and the non-detachable connection manner includes but is not limited to bonding or welding.

[0074] The connecting portion 373 is used to connect the gripping portion 371. The connection between the connecting portion 373 and the connecting shaft 390 is located at an eccentric position of the connecting portion 373, so that when the handle 370 rotates with the connecting shaft 390 as the rotation center, the distance between the abutting surface and the rotation center can change, that is, the position where the handle 370 / or the connecting member 350 abuts against the second limiting member 330 and the connecting shaft 390 can change during the rotation of the handle 370.

[0075] See also Figures 4 to 6In some embodiments, the connecting member 350 includes a connecting portion 351 and a rod body 352. The connecting portion 351 is connected to the connecting portion 373 of the handle 370 via a connecting shaft 390. The rod body 352 passes through the first limiting portion 21033 and the bearing plate 173, and the first limiting member 310 is connected to the rod body 352.

[0076] Specifically, in some embodiments, the joint 351 and the rod 352 are an integral structure, that is, the joint 351 and the rod 352 are an integral structure, thereby improving the strength of the joint 351 and the rod 352, preventing the joint 351 and the rod 352 from separating during the operation of the handle 370, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the operation of the handle 370. In other embodiments, the joint 351 and the rod 352 are split structures, that is, the joint 351 and the rod 352 are two different structures. In one example, the joint 351 and the rod 352 can be combined together in a detachable connection manner, and the detachable connection manner includes but is not limited to a snap connection or a threaded connection. In another example, the joint 351 and the rod 352 can be combined together in a non-detachable connection manner, and the non-detachable connection manner includes but is not limited to bonding or welding.

[0077] The coupling portion 351 is used to connect the handle 370 , and the rod body 352 is used to connect the first limiting member 310 . Furthermore, in the present application, the first limiting member 310 and the rod body 352 are connected by a threaded connection, which is detachable and easy to operate.

[0078] See also Figures 4 to 6 In one embodiment, the connecting portion 373 is provided with an opening 375 , the coupling portion 351 is received in the opening 375 , and is connected to two opposite side walls of the opening 375 via a connecting shaft 390 .

[0079] Specifically, the opening 375 is provided on the inner surface of the connecting portion 373 and is used to accommodate the connecting portion 351. In the projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2), the shape of the cross section of the opening 375 can be rectangular, circular or other shapes. Preferably, the shape and size of the opening 375 match the outer contour of the connecting portion 351, thereby ensuring the stable installation of the connecting portion 351, making the connecting portion 351 not easy to shift, avoiding displacement or loosening. The opening 375 also has a positioning effect, which facilitates the installation of the connecting portion 351. The connecting shaft 390 passes through the opening 375 in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) of the connecting portion 373, so that the connecting portion 373 and the connecting portion 351 can rotate in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the connecting shaft 390. In another embodiment, the connecting portion 351 is provided with an opening 375, and the connecting portion 373 is accommodated in the opening 375 and connected to two opposite side walls of the opening 375 through the connecting shaft 390. It will not be repeated here.

[0080] It should be noted that the frame structure 100 of the photovoltaic sunshade 1000 includes a plurality of beam assemblies 20 (eg Figure 7 ) in the embodiment, the photovoltaic assembly 200 that is not located on the outermost side, that is, the photovoltaic assembly 200 is located in the first direction X, and in the embodiment in which the first frame 2101 and the second frame 2103 are both connected to the beam assembly 20, one of the first frame 2101 and the second frame 2103 is snap-connected with any beam assembly 20, and the other of the first frame 2101 and the second frame 2103 is connected with the other beam assembly 20 through the quick-release assembly 300.

[0081] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the first frame 2101 and the second frame 2103 both include a frame body and a first stopper 21013 / 21033 disposed at the bottom of the frame body and extending toward the center of the second space 120; when the loading frame 23 is engaged with the first frame 2101 of the outermost photovoltaic assembly 200, and the mounting frame 17 is connected to the second frame 2103 of the outermost photovoltaic assembly 200 through the quick release assembly 300, the loading frame 23 includes a connecting arm 231, a bearing arm 233, and a locking arm 235. The connecting arm 231 is connected to the crossbeam 21. The bearing arm 233 is connected to the connecting arm 231. The locking arm 235 is connected to the supporting arm 233. In the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) of the photovoltaic component 200, the locking arm 235 and the connecting arm 231 are respectively located on the same side of the supporting arm 233 and are spaced apart from each other in the first direction X. The frame body of the first frame 2101 is supported on the supporting arm 233. The first limiting portion 21013 of the first frame 2101 is engaged with the locking arm 235 to limit the movement of the photovoltaic component 200 in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) and the positive direction of the first direction X (from the first limiting portion 21013 to the locking arm 235). The thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) is perpendicular to the first direction X.

[0082] Specifically, the connecting arm 231 is a connecting structure on the loading frame 23. The connecting arm 231 is connected to the cross beam 21 to fix the entire loading frame 23 on the cross beam 21, thereby ensuring that the loading frame 23 can firmly support the photovoltaic module 200. The connecting arm 231 is connected to the cross beam 21 by screw connection or rivet connection, thereby ensuring that the loading frame 23 can withstand a large pressure or tension, thereby improving the connection firmness between the loading frame 23 and the cross beam 21. The connection mode of the bearing arm 233 and the connecting arm 231 is an integral connection, which can ensure that the bearing arm 233 and the connecting arm 231 have a very high connection firmness, thereby ensuring the stability of the bearing arm 233 carrying the photovoltaic module 200. The connection mode of the clamping arm 235 and the bearing arm 233 is also an integral connection, which can ensure that the clamping arm 235 and the bearing arm 233 have a very high connection firmness. In the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) of the photovoltaic module 200, the engaging arm 235 and the connecting arm 231 are respectively located on the same side of the bearing arm 233 and are spaced opposite to each other in the first direction X. The first frame 2101 and the second frame 2103 both include a frame body and a first limiting portion 21013 / 21033 disposed at the bottom of the frame body and extending toward the center direction of the second space 120. The present application is described by the first limiting portion 21033 of the second frame 2103 being fixedly connected to the bearing plate 173 through the quick release assembly 300, and the first limiting portion 21013 of the first frame 2101 being engaged and connected. It can be understood that the engaging connection of the first limiting portion 21033 of the second frame 2103 and the fixed connection of the first limiting portion 21013 of the first frame 2101 through the quick release assembly 300 also have at least the same beneficial effects.

[0083] The first limiter 21013 / 21033 is engaged with the locking arm 235, thereby limiting the movement of the photovoltaic assembly 200 in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) and the positive direction of the first direction X (from the first limiter 21013 / 21033 to the locking arm 235), so as to prevent the photovoltaic assembly 200 from shaking in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) and moving in the positive direction of the first direction X in a scene with strong wind. The thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) is perpendicular to the first direction X.

[0084] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7In some embodiments, the engaging arm 235 includes a first sub-arm 2351 and a second sub-arm 2353. The first sub-arm 2351 extends from the carrying arm 233 toward the photovoltaic component 230 of the photovoltaic assembly 200, and the distance between the first sub-arm 2351 and the connecting arm 231 is greater than the dimension of the projection of the first frame 2101 on the carrying arm 233 in the first direction X. The second sub-arm 2353 extends from one end of the first sub-arm 2351 away from the carrying arm 233 toward the connecting arm 231 to form a semi-enclosed limiting space 2355 with the carrying arm 233 and the first sub-arm 2351, and the first limiting portion 21013 / 21033 is at least partially accommodated in the limiting space 2355.

[0085] Specifically, the engaging arm 235 includes a first sub-arm 2351 and a second sub-arm 2353. The first sub-arm 2351 extends toward the photovoltaic component 230 of the photovoltaic assembly 200. The distance between the first sub-arm 2351 and the connecting arm 231 is greater than the dimension of the projection of the first frame 2101 on the bearing arm 233 in the first direction X, so as to ensure that the first frame 2101 can be placed on the bearing arm 233. The second sub-arm 2353 extends from one end of the first sub-arm 2351 away from the bearing arm 233 toward the connecting arm 231, so as to form a semi-enclosed limiting space 2355 with the bearing arm 233 and the first sub-arm 2351, and partially accommodate the first limiting portion 21013 / 21033 in the limiting space 2355. The second sub-arm 2353 forms a semi-enclosed limiting space 2355 with the supporting arm 233 and the first sub-arm 2351, thereby realizing the locking connection between the first limiting portion 21013 / 21033 and the locking arm 235, and limiting the positive movement of the photovoltaic component 200 in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) and the first direction X, so as to avoid the photovoltaic component 200 from shaking in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) and moving forward along the first direction X in a scene with strong wind.

[0086] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 , see Figure 1 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the angle between the surface of the second sub-arm 2353 facing the support arm 233 and the surface of the first sub-arm 2351 facing the connecting arm 231 is an obtuse angle.

[0087] It can be understood that if the angle between the surface of the second sub-arm 2353 facing the supporting arm 233 and the surface of the first sub-arm 2351 facing the connecting arm 231 is an acute angle, the first limiting portion 21013 / 21033 cannot be snap-fitted and installed into the limiting space 2355, and the first limiting portion 21013 of the first frame 2101 / the first limiting portion 21033 of the second frame 2103 cannot be removed from the limiting space 2355 in a direction away from the snap-fit ​​arm 235. If the angle between the surface of the second sub-arm 2353 facing the supporting arm 233 and the surface of the first sub-arm 2351 facing the connecting arm 231 is a right angle, during the installation and disassembly of the photovoltaic assembly 200, when the first limiting portion 21013 / 21033 is taken out from the limiting space 2355 in the direction away from the locking arm 235, there will be certain scratches between the first limiting portion 21013 / 21033 and the second sub-arm 2353, which can easily cause damage to the first limiting portion 21013 / 21033 and the second sub-arm 2353, thereby reducing the service life of the photovoltaic awning 1000. If the angle between the surface of the second sub-arm 2353 facing the supporting arm 233 and the surface of the first sub-arm 2351 facing the connecting arm 231 is an obtuse angle, then when the first limiting portion 21013 / 21033 is taken out from the limiting space 2355 in the direction away from the locking arm 235, the angle provides a certain avoidance space, and it is not easy to cause scratches between the first limiting portion 21013 / 21033 and the second sub-arm 2353, which is conducive to the installation and disassembly between the first limiting portion 21033 and the second sub-arm 2353.

[0088] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the photovoltaic assembly 200 further includes a photovoltaic element 230. The first frame 2101 and the second frame 2103 further include a second stopper 21015 / 21035 disposed on the top of the frame body (the second stopper 21035 of the second frame 2103 is used for illustration), and the photovoltaic element 230 is carried on the top of the frame body and is located between the second stopper 21015 of the first frame 2101 and the second stopper 21035 of the second frame 2103 in the first direction X.

[0089] The present application is illustrated with the second limit portion 21035 of the second frame 2103. It is understandable that the second limit portion of the first frame 2101 also has the same beneficial effect. The photovoltaic assembly 200 also includes a photovoltaic component 230. The main function of the photovoltaic component 230 is to convert solar energy into electrical energy, which is a core part of the photovoltaic awning 1000. The photovoltaic component 230 can be a photovoltaic panel or a photovoltaic module. The photovoltaic component 230 realizes the energy conversion from solar energy to electrical energy through the photoelectric effect. When sunlight shines on the semiconductor material (such as silicon) of the photovoltaic component 230, the energy of the photon excites the electrons in the material, causing them to transition from their original position to a higher energy state, thereby forming an electric current. This process is the core principle of photoelectric conversion. The photovoltaic component 230 converts sunlight energy into direct current, and then converts the direct current into alternating current through an inverter for home, commercial or industrial use, or feeds back to the power grid. The photovoltaic element 230 provides clean renewable energy. The photoelectric conversion process of the photovoltaic element 230 does not produce greenhouse gases, wastewater or harmful substances, and has a minimal impact on the environment compared to fossil fuels. Therefore, the photovoltaic element 230 can effectively reduce the carbon footprint of buildings and reduce dependence on traditional energy. In addition, the photovoltaic element 230 is also connected to the power grid to transmit excess electricity to the power grid, realizing a two-way flow of electricity.

[0090] Specifically, during the use of the photovoltaic awning 1000, it is also necessary to prevent the photovoltaic component 230 from shaking or moving in a windy environment. To this end, the first frame 2101 and the second frame 2103 of the photovoltaic assembly 200 of the present application are both provided with a second limiting portion 21015 / 21035. Since the photovoltaic component 230 is carried on the top of the frame body and is located between the second limiting portion 21015 of the first frame 2101 and the second limiting portion 21035 of the second frame 2103 in the first direction X, the second limiting portion 21015 of the first frame 2101 and the second limiting portion 21035 of the second frame 2103 can cooperate with each other to limit the photovoltaic component 230 in the first direction X. Figure 1 Movement in the X-axis direction can prevent the photovoltaic component 230 from moving or shaking in windy scenes, thereby improving the firmness of the photovoltaic awning 1000.

[0091] See also Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 8In some embodiments, the beam assembly 20 includes multiple beam assemblies, and the opposite ends of the multiple beam assemblies 20 are respectively connected to the two opposite frame assemblies 10, and the two adjacent beam assemblies 20 include a first beam assembly 25 and a second beam assembly 27. In the photovoltaic assembly 200 located between the first beam assembly 25 and the second beam assembly 27, the first frame 2101 is engaged with the loading part of the first beam assembly 25, and the second frame 2103 is connected to the loading frame 23 of the second beam assembly 27 through a quick release assembly 300.

[0092] It is understandable that if the user needs a photovoltaic awning 1000 with a larger area, the number of photovoltaic assemblies 200 disposed between the beam assembly 20 and the frame assembly 10 can be increased by increasing the number of beam assemblies 20. As the number of photovoltaic assemblies 200 increases, the area of ​​the photovoltaic awning 1000 also increases until the needs of the user are met. Specifically, when the number of beam assemblies 20 is more than one, some photovoltaic assemblies 200 are installed between two adjacent beam assemblies 20. The two adjacent beam assemblies 20 include a first beam assembly 25 and a second beam assembly 27. In the photovoltaic assembly 200 located between the first beam assembly 25 and the second beam assembly 27, the first frame 2101 is engaged with the frame 23 of the first beam assembly 25, and the second frame 2103 is connected to the loading frame 23 of the second beam assembly 27 through a quick release assembly 300, thereby ensuring that the photovoltaic assembly 200 located between the first beam assembly 25 and the second beam assembly 27 can be firmly connected to the first beam assembly 25 and the second beam assembly 27.

[0093] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the photovoltaic assembly 200 also includes a photovoltaic component 230, and the photovoltaic frame 210 also includes two third frames 2105 and a fourth frame 2107 opposite to each other in the second direction Y, the second direction Y is perpendicular to the first direction X, the first frame 2101, the third frame 2105, the second frame 2103 and the fourth frame 2107 are connected in sequence and enclose an installation space, and the photovoltaic component 230 is accommodated in the installation space; the third frame 2105 and / or the fourth frame 2107 include a frame body 21051 / 21071, an extension portion 21053 / 21073 arranged at the top of the frame body 21051 / 21071 and extending away from the frame body 21051 / 21071, and a limiting portion 21055 / 21075 arranged at the extension portion 21053 / 21073 and extending toward the center of the installation space. The top of the frame body 21051 / 21071, the extension portion 21053 / 21073 and the limiting portion 21055 / 21075 together form a confined space, and one end of the photovoltaic component 230 is accommodated in the confined space.

[0094] Specifically, the photovoltaic frame 210 also includes two third frames 2105 and a fourth frame 2107 that are opposite to each other in the second direction Y, the second direction Y is perpendicular to the first direction X, and the first frame 2101, the third frame 2105, the second frame 2103 and the fourth frame 2107 are sequentially connected and enclose an installation space for accommodating the photovoltaic component 230. The third frame 2105 and / or the fourth frame 2107 each include a frame body 21051 / 21071, an extension portion 21053 / 21073 and a restriction portion 21055 / 21075. Among them, the extension portion 21053 / 21073 is arranged on the top of the frame body 21051 / 21071 and extends away from the frame body 21051 / 21071 to fix the photovoltaic component 230 and prevent the photovoltaic component 230 from moving in the second direction Y of the photovoltaic assembly 200. The limiting portion 21055 / 21075 is disposed on the extension portion 21053 / 21073 and extends toward the center of the installation space to fix the photovoltaic component 230 and prevent the photovoltaic component 230 from moving in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2) of the photovoltaic assembly 200. The top of the frame body 21051 / 21071, the extension portion 21053 / 21073 and the limiting portion 21055 / 21075 together form a restricted space, and one end of the photovoltaic component 230 is accommodated in the restricted space, thereby ensuring that when the photovoltaic awning 1000 is used in an environment with strong winds, the photovoltaic component 230 can be firmly fixed in the original position and prevent the photovoltaic component 230 from moving in the second direction Y or in the thickness direction (Z1 / Z2).
