At present, traditional flexible photovoltaic systems can be divided into double-cable systems, three-cable systems, etc. according to the spatial configuration of prestressed cables. In the existing three-cable system, the spatial connection method between component cables and load-bearing cables is mainly formed by splicing round steel pipes in a triangular shape to form a support system, but its adaptability is not strong, especially for the height changes of the load-bearing cables along the direction of the prestressed cables. It cannot adapt quickly and needs to be designed in advance; for wind vibration caused by wind load, the shock absorption and energy consumption effect is poor, causing fatigue damage to the prestressed cables, and also affecting the service life of photovoltaic panels.

[0003] In the existing flexible photovoltaic support system, the present invention provides a prestressed cable connection node with adjustable damping, aiming at the spatial configuration of the connection node of the component cable and the load-bearing cable in the three-cable system. The node can be adjusted at any time during installation without pre-design to adapt to the different spatial configurations of the component cable and the load-bearing cable connection nodes, including the height change of the load-bearing cable, and the height difference change of the component cables with different inclination angles of the photovoltaic panel, thereby improving the installation speed of the flexible photovoltaic three-cable system, shortening the construction period and greatly improving the adaptability of the system.
