Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of photovoltaic mounting brackets, and in particular to a photovoltaic component mounting bracket adaptable to multiple terrains. Background Art

[0002] As the global energy structure transforms to renewable energy, photovoltaic power generation is an important form of clean and renewable energy. Photovoltaic power generation mainly includes solar panels and mounting brackets. The solar panels are installed at the use location through the mounting brackets, and the solar panels absorb light energy and then convert it into electrical energy through other equipment. When installing the solar panels, they need to be adjusted to different angles according to the duration of sunshine and the height of the sea level, so as to absorb light energy in the most appropriate direction, which helps to improve the efficiency of power generation; The existing photovoltaic module mounting bracket still has the following technical problems when in use, such as: Existing photovoltaic module mounting brackets need to be installed in different terrains, such as hard soil, hard rock, wet and soft soil, etc. When the photovoltaic module mounting bracket is installed in soft terrain such as wet and soft soil, it is easy to cause the bracket to tilt due to uneven force, which in turn easily causes the angle of the solar panel to change, which is not conducive to ensuring that it is at the best installation angle to absorb light, and is not conducive to improving the efficiency of power generation; Although there are solar panels with automatic adjustment and balance in the prior art, they cannot improve the efficiency of power generation. For example, the publication number is CN219697574U, and the publication date is September 15, 2023. It discloses a photovoltaic bracket with automatic adjustment and balance. It realizes the adjustment of the solar panel by setting components such as sensors, signal transmitters and cylinders. However, it consumes electric energy during use, and thus cannot achieve the purpose of improving power generation efficiency. In addition, setting components such as sensors, signal transmitters and cylinders will not only increase the manufacturing cost, but also increase the maintenance cost. Therefore, a photovoltaic module mounting bracket that is adaptable to multiple terrains is needed to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0005] Preferably, the screw rod is provided with two sections of threads which are symmetrical about a vertical line therein, and the two sections of threads have opposite rotation directions, so that when the screw rod rotates, the two sliders always move in opposite directions.

[0006] Preferably, the lower surface of the sliding block is slidably connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate, and the supporting rods connected to the two sliding blocks are arranged in an eight-shaped shape.

[0008] Preferably, the balance control mechanism includes a mounting frame installed inside the control platform, and a cavity is installed on the mounting frame. The cavity is a tubular structure with a single opening, and a piston disk is seamlessly slidably connected to the inner side of the opening of the cavity. The side of the piston disk close to the cavity opening is connected to one end of a push-pull rod through a universal ball shaft.

[0009] Preferably, the balance control mechanism also includes a shaft rod passing through the inner side and the lower surface of the control platform, and the middle part of the shaft rod is connected to the control platform through a universal ball shaft, the lower end of the shaft rod is provided with a weight ball coaxial therewith, and the outer side of the upper end of the shaft rod is connected to the other end of the push-pull rod through a universal ball shaft.

In addition, the mounting bracket has a simple structure, and the production cost and maintenance cost are low: 1. When the control table is in a horizontal position, the positions of the piston disks in the four cavity tubes are the same relative to it.

At this time, the piston disks in the four cavity tubes will be in different positions relative to it through the push-pull rod. At this time, gas will be delivered to or extracted from the corresponding piston tube, so that the position of the piston tube and the corresponding piston rod will change, which will help the installation plate gradually approach the horizontal level, thereby reducing the influence of the tilt of the support frame on the position of the photovoltaic panel, which will help to improve the efficiency of power generation; 2. The heavy ball driven balance control mechanism can avoid the need to install power-consuming equipment such as sensors, which helps reduce production costs. In addition, since the heavy ball driven balance control mechanism is not easily damaged, it helps reduce maintenance costs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0019] The screw rod 7 is provided with two sections of threads which are symmetrical about the vertical line, and the rotation directions of the two sections of threads are opposite, so that when the screw rod 7 rotates, the two sliders 8 always move in opposite directions. The lower surface of the slider 8 is slidably connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate 19, and the supporting rod 9 connected to the two sliders 8 is arranged in an eight-shaped shape. When in use, the screw rod 7 is driven to rotate by the rocker to make the two sliders 8 move towards or away from each other, thereby lifting or lowering one end of the photovoltaic panel 6. In conjunction with the top frame 5, the inclination angle of the photovoltaic panel 6 can be adjusted, which helps to adjust the photovoltaic panel 6 to a suitable position according to the sunshine conditions and altitudes at different locations.

[0020] The pneumatic support mechanism includes a piston tube 3 arranged on the upper surface of the control table 4, and the lower end of the piston rod 2 seamlessly slidably connected to the piston tube 3 extends into the inner side of the upper end of the piston tube 3, and the upper end of the piston rod 2 is connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate 19 through a universal ball shaft.

[0021] The balancing and regulating mechanism includes a mounting frame 12 installed inside the regulating and controlling platform 4, and a cavity tube 13 is installed on the mounting frame 12. The cavity tube 13 is a tubular structure with a single opening, and a piston disk 16 is seamlessly slidably connected to the inner side of the opening of the cavity tube 13. The side of the piston disk 16 close to the opening of the cavity tube 13 is connected to one end of a push-pull rod 17 through a universal ball shaft. The balancing and regulating mechanism also includes a shaft rod 11 that passes through the inner side and the lower surface of the regulating and controlling platform 4, and the middle part of the shaft rod 11 is connected to the regulating and controlling platform 4 through a universal ball shaft. The lower end of the shaft rod 11 is provided with a coaxial heavy ball 10, and the outer side of the upper end of the shaft rod 11 is connected to the other end of the push-pull rod 17 through a universal ball shaft. When in use, the support frame 1 is installed in a fixed position to fix the photovoltaic components thereon. Thereafter, if the Due to terrain reasons, such as settlement, the support frame 1 tilts, which will cause the control table 4 to tilt with it. During this process, since the heavy ball 10 will always be suspended vertically, the push-pull rod 17 at the corresponding position will drive the piston plate 16 to move in the corresponding cavity 13, so that the gas in the cavity 13 is squeezed into the corresponding piston tube 3 or the gas in the corresponding piston tube 3 is drawn into the cavity 13. The above process will cause the relative position of the piston tube 3 and the piston rod 2 to change, and then the mounting plate 19 can be gradually leveled, thereby reducing the problem of the support frame 1 tilting due to terrain changes or the originally inclined terrain, causing the photovoltaic components installed on the support frame 1 to be affected, thereby relatively improving the power generation efficiency.

The cavity 13 is connected with the piston tube 3 opposite to it, so as to adjust the balance of the control console 4. During production, there is no need to install power-consuming equipment such as sensors, which helps to reduce production costs. In addition, since structures such as the heavy ball 10 are not easily damaged, the cost is reduced during maintenance, which helps to use the mounting bracket in conjunction with photovoltaic components outdoors for a long time.
