[0031] First embodiment

[0032] See also Figure 1 to Figure 7 The present invention provides a flexible photovoltaic bracket, including a support frame 101, a rope 102, an anchor rod 103, a plurality of mobile frames 104, a plurality of connecting rod groups 105 and a partition 106, one end of the rope 102 is fixed to the anchor rod 103, the other end of the rope 102 passes through the support frame 101 for installing photovoltaic panels, a plurality of mobile frames 104 are slidably arranged on the rope 102, a plurality of connecting rod groups 105 are arranged on both sides of the plurality of mobile frames 104, the connecting rod group 105 includes a rotating rod 107, a connecting rod body 108, a first spring 109 and a limit plate 110, the rotating plate is rotatably arranged on the mobile frame 104, the connecting rod body 108 is slidably arranged on the rotating plate, the first spring 109 is arranged between the connecting rod body 108 and the rotating rod 107, and the limit plate 110 is fixed to the bottom of the connecting rod body 108.

[0033] In this embodiment, one end of the rope 102 is firmly fixed to the anchor rod 103, and the other end passes through the support frame 101, providing a basic framework for the installation of the photovoltaic panel.

[0034] A plurality of mobile racks 104 are slidably arranged on the rope 102 so that the spacing can be adjusted according to the size of the photovoltaic panel, thereby meeting the installation of photovoltaic panels of different sizes. In order to enhance the stability of the photovoltaic panel during installation, a connecting rod group 105 is configured on both sides of each mobile rack 104. These connecting rod groups 105 are composed of a rotating rod 107, a connecting rod body 108, a first spring 109 and a limiting plate 110. The rotating rod 107 can rotate relative to the mobile rack 104, so that after the photovoltaic panel is placed on the rope 102, the rotating rod 107 can be rotated, and then the connecting rod body 108 can be slid so that the limiting plate 110 is close to the edge of the photovoltaic panel, and the first spring 109 is tightened, so that the position of the photovoltaic panel can be pre-fixed by the limiting plates 110 on both sides. After that, the positions of two adjacent photovoltaic panels are limited by the partition 106 to avoid collision under strong wind conditions, so that the photovoltaic panel can be installed more conveniently and with higher stability.

[0035] The mobile frame 104 includes a frame body 111 and stabilizing ribs 112 . The stabilizing ribs 112 are disposed on both sides of the frame body 111 for auxiliary support of the photovoltaic panels.

[0036] The design of the mobile frame 104 is particularly ingenious and comprehensive. The mobile frame 104 is composed of a frame body 111 and stabilizing ribs 112, wherein the stabilizing ribs 112 are arranged on both sides of the frame body 111 to provide additional auxiliary support for the photovoltaic panel, ensuring that the photovoltaic panel can be firmly installed on the bracket and maintain good stability even in adverse weather conditions.

[0037] The frame 111 has a plurality of weight-reducing holes 113 , and the plurality of weight-reducing holes 113 are distributed on the frame 111 .

[0038] In order to reduce the overall weight and optimize the efficiency of material use, the frame 111 is designed with multiple weight-reducing holes 113. These holes are reasonably distributed on the frame 111, which effectively reduces the weight of the entire device without affecting the structural strength, facilitates transportation and installation, and also reduces costs.

[0039] The mobile frame 104 also includes a sliding rod 114, a lock 115 and a second spring 116. The sliding rod 114 is slidably set at the bottom of the frame body 111, the second spring 116 is set between the sliding rod 114 and the frame body 111, and the lock 115 is slidably set on the frame body 111 and corresponds to a plurality of lock holes 123 on the sliding rod 114.

[0040] In order to prevent the middle section from falling seriously due to gravity and affecting the light receiving rate, the sliding rod 114 is slidably set at the bottom of the frame 111 to allow the position to be adjusted so as to contact the ground for support. The lock buckle 115 cooperates with the lock hole 123 to lock the position on the sliding rod 114, thereby providing auxiliary support.

[0041] The limiting plate 110 includes a plate body 117 and two extension rods 118 . The two extension rods 118 are slidably connected to the plate body 117 and are located on both sides of the plate body 117 .

[0042] As another important component, the limiting plate 110 includes a plate body 117 and two extension rods 118. The two extension rods 118 are slidably connected to the plate body 117 and are respectively located on both sides of the plate body 117. This design not only increases the functional diversity of the limiting plate 110, but also improves its flexibility, so that it can be adjusted according to actual needs, and further enhances the stability and reliability of the entire mobile frame 104.

[0043] The connecting rod group 105 also includes a pull rope 119, a rotating handle 120, a locking rod 121 and a locking disk 122. The rotating handle 120 is rotatably set on the frame 111, one end of the pull rope 119 is fixed to the rotating handle 120, and the other end of the pull rope 119 is fixed to the connecting rod body 108. The locking disk 122 is fixed on one side of the rotating handle 120, and a plurality of locking holes 123 are set on the locking disk 122. The locking rod 121 is slidably set on the rotating handle 120 and is close to the locking hole 123.

[0044] In order to further enhance the stability of the connection, the present application provides a pull rope 119. After the limit plate 110 is installed, the pull rope 119 is retracted by rotating the rotating wrench, thereby increasing the tensioning force and making the limit plate 110 more stably fixed. After the adjustment is completed, the locking rod 121 is slid into the locking hole 123 on the locking disk 122 to complete the fixation.

[0045] The partition 106 includes a rotating shaft 124, a third spring 125, two support plates 126 and two connecting plates 127. The two support plates 126 are rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 124 and are located between two adjacent photovoltaic panels. The two connecting plates 127 are respectively arranged on the two support plates 126 for connecting to the photovoltaic panels.

[0046] The two support plates 126 are rotatably connected to the partition plate 106 through the rotating shaft 124 and are arranged between two adjacent photovoltaic panels. This design allows the support plates 126 to rotate freely within a certain range to meet the requirements of different installation angles, and also to make appropriate angle adjustments when subjected to external forces, thereby protecting the photovoltaic panels from damage.

[0047] The connecting plate 127 includes two L-shaped adjustment plates 128, two clamping plates 129, an elastic gasket 130 and an adjusting nut 131. The two L-shaped adjustment plates 128 are respectively slidably set on the two supporting plates 126, and the two clamping plates 129 are respectively slidably set above the two clamping plates 129. The adjusting nut 131 is threadedly connected to the L-shaped adjustment plate 128 for adjusting the position of the clamping plate 129. The elastic gasket 130 is used to support the L-shaped adjustment plate 128.

[0048] A connecting plate 127 is provided on each support plate 126 to establish a stable connection with the photovoltaic panel. The design of the connecting plate 127 is also meticulous, including two L-shaped adjustment plates 128, two clamping plates 129, elastic gaskets 130 and adjustment nuts 131. Among them, the two L-shaped adjustment plates 128 are respectively slidably set on the two support plates 126, providing flexible position adjustment capabilities, so that the connecting plate 127 can adapt to photovoltaic panels of different sizes and shapes. The clamping plates 129 are respectively slidably set above the two L-shaped adjustment plates 128 to further enhance the fixing effect of the photovoltaic panel.

[0049] The adjusting nut 131 and the L-shaped adjusting plate 128 are connected by threads, and the user can precisely adjust the position of the pressing plate 129 by rotating the adjusting nut 131 to ensure that the photovoltaic panel is firmly pressed at the predetermined position. This mechanism not only improves the flexibility during the installation process, but also ensures the stability of the photovoltaic panel throughout its entire service life.

[0050] In addition, the elastic gasket 130 is used to support the L-shaped adjustment plate 128, thereby increasing the buffering performance of the entire structure. This can not only absorb external impacts and reduce damage to the photovoltaic panel caused by vibration or displacement, but also effectively alleviate the impact of thermal expansion and contraction, thereby extending the service life of the photovoltaic panel and its mounting structure.

[0051] Second embodiment

[0052] See also Figure 8 The present invention also provides a working method of a flexible photovoltaic support, comprising:

[0053] S201 positions the rope 102 and the support frame 101 through the anchor rod 103 to build an installation environment;

[0054] One end of the rope 102 is firmly fixed to the ground or a suitable supporting structure through the anchor rod 103, and the other end of the rope 102 is passed through the support frame 101 to complete the preliminary installation frame construction. This step ensures the basic stability of the entire system and provides a reliable support environment for the installation of subsequent components.

[0055] S202 slidingly disposing a plurality of moving frames 104 on the rope 102;

[0056] A plurality of mobile racks 104 are slidably arranged on the ropes 102. These mobile racks 104 can slide back and forth on the ropes 102, allowing the user to flexibly adjust the position and angle of each photovoltaic panel according to actual needs. This step not only simplifies the installation process of the photovoltaic panels, but also improves the adaptability of the system, enabling it to better cope with different terrains and lighting conditions.

[0057] S203: placing the photovoltaic panel on the mobile frame 104 and initially supporting it through the rope 102;

[0058] The photovoltaic panel is carefully placed on the mobile frame 104 and initially fixed with the support provided by the rope 102. In this step, attention should be paid to the placement and angle of the photovoltaic panel to ensure that it can be fine-tuned smoothly in subsequent operations to achieve the best light receiving effect.

[0059] S204: Then, the rotating rod 107 is rotated so that the limiting plate 110 contacts the edge of the photovoltaic panel, and the limiting plate 110 is tightened by the first spring 109 to limit the photovoltaic panel;

[0060] After the photovoltaic panel is roughly positioned, the rotating rod 107 in the connecting rod group 105 is rotated to make the limit plate 110 contact and press the edge of the photovoltaic panel. In this process, the first spring 109 will tighten the limit plate 110 to ensure that it applies appropriate pressure to the photovoltaic panel, thereby effectively preventing the photovoltaic panel from being displaced or tilted due to external factors (such as wind force). This operation is crucial to maintaining the stability and safety of the photovoltaic panel.

[0061] S205: a partition 106 is provided between two photovoltaic panels for position limiting.

[0062] A partition 106 is provided between two adjacent photovoltaic panels for further positioning and support. The partition 106 not only helps to maintain uniform spacing between photovoltaic panels and avoid potential damage caused by direct contact, but also enhances the stability of the overall structure. In addition, design elements such as the rotating shaft 124 and the third spring 125 on the partition 106 can provide additional buffering and adaptability, so that the photovoltaic system can perform well in the face of various environmental challenges.

[0063] Through the above steps, a flexible photovoltaic bracket was successfully built, which not only ensured the safe and stable installation of photovoltaic panels, but also achieved efficient solar energy conversion, reflecting the important value of the system in modern green energy solutions.

[0064] What is disclosed above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it certainly cannot be used to limit the scope of rights of the present invention. Ordinary technicians in this field can understand that all or part of the processes of the above embodiment and equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention still fall within the scope of the invention.
