[0067] Another object of the present application is to disclose a photovoltaic system including the above-mentioned flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket.

[0068] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0069] like Figure 1-Figure 16As shown, the embodiment of the present application discloses a flexible tracking photovoltaic support, including a main cable assembly, a support assembly, a tracking assembly 500 and a wind-resistant assembly 300. The main cable assembly includes at least two parallel main cables 100, on which photovoltaic assemblies 600 are laid; the support assembly includes at least two support frames, each of which is arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the main cable 100, and the two support frames located at the ends along the extension direction of the main cable 100 are defined as end supports 200, and the support frame located between the two end supports 200 is defined as an intermediate support 210. Then, according to the actual span of the main cable 100, the intermediate support 210 may not be provided or different numbers of intermediate supports 210 may be provided. The end support 200 is connected to the ground foundation through the inclined cable assembly 400, and the inclined cable assembly 400 can increase the overall stability of the flexible tracking photovoltaic support. The tracking assembly 500 includes a plurality of driving members 510 and a plurality of crossbeams 520. Each crossbeam 520 is rotatably arranged on each support frame in a one-to-one correspondence. Each driving member 510 is also arranged on each support frame in a one-to-one correspondence. Both ends of the main cable 100 are respectively arranged on the crossbeams 520 located at the end brackets 200 to achieve position fixation. In the case of an intermediate bracket 210, the middle position of the main cable 100 is fixed to the crossbeam 520 located on the intermediate bracket 210 to improve the wind resistance of the main cable 100. The driving member 510 is connected to the crossbeam 520 in a one-to-one correspondence transmission manner to drive the crossbeam 520 to rotate. The rotation of the crossbeam 520 can drive the main cable 100 and the photovoltaic assembly 600 arranged on the main cable 100 to rotate synchronously to adjust the installation angle, adapt to the change of the altitude angle of the sun at different times and seasons, and ensure the effective light receiving area of ​​the photovoltaic assembly 600.

[0070] Specifically, in some embodiments, the support assembly includes an end column 201 and an end column head node, the wind-resistant cable 320 is connected to the end column 201 by a clamp or other means, and the end column 201 can be a structure such as a concrete pipe pile or a steel pile; the end column head node includes a node main body plate 203 and a connecting ear plate 204, the node main body plate 203 is arranged on the top of the end column 201, and the driving member 510 is connected to the node main body plate 203 of the end bracket 200, and the connecting ear plate 204 is arranged and connected to the node main body plate 203 at an angle, which can enhance its out-of-plane stability and avoid excessive deformation and overall instability. The inclined cable assembly 400 is connected to the connecting ear plate 204, that is, the end column head node in the embodiment of the present application has the function of connecting with the tracking assembly 500 and the inclined cable assembly 400 at the same time. Compared with the technical solution in the related art that the inclined cable assembly 400 is directly connected to the end column 201 by means of a clamp or the like, the present application connects the inclined cable assembly 400 with the end column 201 by setting a connecting ear plate 204 on the end column head node, thereby simplifying the installation process of the flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket, improving production efficiency, and having a simple structure and low cost. At the same time, it can ensure that after the main cable 100 applies prestress to the support assembly, the support assembly can still meet the requirements of overturning and axial force.

[0071] Furthermore, the node main plate 203 and the connecting ear plate 204 of the above-mentioned end column head node adopt an integrated structural design to reduce the influence of weld quality on structural strength by reducing the number of welds, thereby improving overall strength and assembly efficiency. The end column head node disclosed in the embodiment of the present application has the advantages of simple structure and low processing difficulty. Specifically, the node main plate 203 and the connecting ear plate 204 arranged and connected at an angle can be prepared by bending steel plates, which not only simplifies the manufacturing process, but also ensures that the force transmission and stability are not affected, while reducing the installation process, achieving rapid installation, and ensuring the efficiency and reliability of the structure.

[0072] Combination Figure 3The wind-resistant component 300 is used to reduce the risk of damage to the photovoltaic component 600 due to wind force. It includes a stabilizing cable 310, a wind-resistant cable 320 and a wind-resistant frame structure. There are at least two stabilizing cables 310, and the two ends of the stabilizing cables 310 are respectively connected to the crossbeam 520 located at the two end brackets 200 to achieve position fixation; when an intermediate bracket 210 is provided, the middle position of the stabilizing cable 310 is fixed to the crossbeam 520 located on the intermediate bracket 210 to improve the stability and wind resistance of the stabilizing cable 310; the two ends of the wind-resistant cable 320 are respectively connected to two adjacent support frames for easy construction, that is, when the intermediate bracket 210 is not provided, the two ends of the wind-resistant cable 320 are respectively fixed to the two end brackets 200, and when the intermediate bracket 210 is provided, the two ends of the wind-resistant cable 320 are respectively connected to the end bracket 200 and the intermediate bracket 210, or the two ends are respectively connected to the two adjacent intermediate brackets 210. The stabilizing cable 310 and the wind-resistant cable 320 are both arranged below the main cable 100 to avoid affecting the installation of the photovoltaic module 600 on the main cable 100. The top of the wind-resistant frame structure is connected to the main cable 100, and the bottom of the wind-resistant frame structure is connected to the stabilizing cable 310, so that the position of the wind-resistant frame structure is fixed by the main cable 100 and the stabilizing cable 310, and the wind-resistant frame structure is connected to the wind-resistant cable 320, and the middle position of the wind-resistant cable 320 is arched upward. This kind of upwardly arched wind-resistant cable 320 can effectively increase the stability and wind resistance of the overall structure of the flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket, prevent the wind-resistant frame structure from being vertically displaced by wind suction and wind lifting, and at the same time, it does not occupy the space at the bottom of the flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket, and realizes the high clearance layout at the bottom of the flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket.

[0073] Exemplarily, in some embodiments, the wind-resistant frame structure includes one or more three-dimensional wind-resistant frames, the top of the three-dimensional wind-resistant frame is connected to the main cable 100, the bottom of the three-dimensional wind-resistant frame is connected to the stabilizing cable 310, and the three-dimensional wind-resistant frame is connected to the wind-resistant cable 320 through a vertical cable, and the middle position of the wind-resistant cable 320 is arched upward, and the wind-resistant frame structure in this embodiment has reliable strength and good wind resistance. In other embodiments, the wind-resistant frame structure includes a first wind-resistant frame 330 and a second wind-resistant frame 340, the tops of the first wind-resistant frame 330 and the second wind-resistant frame 340 are both connected to the main cable 100, and the bottoms of the first wind-resistant frame 330 and the second wind-resistant frame 340 are both connected to the stabilizing cable 310, so as to realize the position fixation of the first wind-resistant frame 330 and the second wind-resistant frame 340 through the main cable 100 and the stabilizing cable 310. The first wind-resistant frame 330 and the second wind-resistant frame 340 are connected to the wind-resistant cable 320 through the first cable 350 and the second cable 360, respectively, and the middle part of the wind-resistant cable 320 is arched upward. In addition, the second wind-resistant frame 340 is arranged at the top position of the arch of the wind-resistant cable 320. The first wind-resistant frame 330 is a three-dimensional wind-resistant frame, and the second wind-resistant frame 340 is a plane wind-resistant frame, wherein the top position of the arch of the wind-resistant cable 320 is the middle position of two adjacent support frames, that is, when the intermediate support 210 is not provided, the middle position of the two end supports 200, when the intermediate support 210 is provided, the middle position of the end support 200 and the adjacent intermediate support 210 or the middle position of two adjacent intermediate supports 210. At the top position of the arch of the wind-resistant cable 320, the stress of the stabilizing cable 310 is small, and the wind resistance performance requirement of the second wind-resistant frame 340 is low, so the second wind-resistant frame 340 with a plane structure can meet the wind resistance requirements, thereby reducing costs. In addition, the bottom of the second wind-resistant frame 340 is an arc-shaped structure arched toward the main cable 100, which is used to avoid interference between the second wind-resistant frame 340 and the wind-resistant cable 320 and facilitate the arching of the wind-resistant cable 320, thereby realizing a high-clearance layout of the flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket.

[0074] In the embodiment of the present application, the main cable 100 is arranged above the cross beam 520, and the stabilizing cable 310 is arranged below the cross beam 520. Compared with the technical solution in which the main cable 100 and the stabilizing cable 310 are arranged above or below the cross beam 520, the technical solution disclosed in the present application can effectively reduce the deformation of the cross beam 520 and ensure its structural strength and service life. Fig. 9 The main cable 100 and the stabilizing cable 310 can share the same cable clamp 521 to be connected to the crossbeam 520, thereby simplifying the assembly process.

[0075] Compared with the related art, the flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket disclosed in the present application fixes the wind-resistant frame structure through the structure of the stabilizing cable 310 and the wind-resistant cable 320, thereby avoiding the occupation of the bottom space of the flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket by the wind-resistant frame fixing structure such as ground piles, and realizing a high-clearance layout at the bottom of the flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket, thereby improving the utilization rate of the bottom space of the flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket, facilitating the realization of industrial models such as fish-light complementarity and agricultural-light complementarity at the bottom of the flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket, improving the practicality and economic benefits of the flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket, and having the advantages of simple structure, high cost, and strong wind resistance; in addition, the present application can further increase the arch height of the wind-resistant cable 320 through the arc structure that arches upward at the bottom of the second wind-resistant frame 340, and provide more space for the bottom of the flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket, thereby expanding the high-clearance advantage of the bottom of the flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket.

[0076] Combination Figure 8 and Fig. 9 In order to ensure the stable placement of the end column 201, in some embodiments, a single end column 201 transmits the force to the ground through two or more inclined cable assemblies 400, and the angle arrangement between the connecting ear plate 204 and the node body plate 203 facilitates the layout of the inclined cable assembly 400. Exemplary, Figure 8 and Fig. 9 A technical solution is shown in which an end column cap node includes two connecting ear plates 204 bent 15° in opposite directions relative to a node main body plate 203, the two connecting ear plates 204 are respectively connected to a cable-stayed cable assembly 400, and the two cable-stayed cable assemblies 400 extend along the planes of their respective corresponding connecting ear plates 204. The two cable-stayed cable assemblies 400 and the end column 201 together form a triangular support structure. The node main body plates 203 are two connected to the connecting ear plates 204 in a one-to-one correspondence, and the plate surface of the node main body plates 203 is parallel to the extension direction of the main cable 100. Optionally, the preset angle between the node main body plate 203 and the connecting ear plate 204 can be 135° to 170°, so that an angle of 20° to 90° can be formed between the two cable-stayed cable assemblies 400 respectively connected to the two connecting ear plates 204, thereby improving the transmission efficiency of the tension of the cable-stayed cable assembly 400 and enhancing the out-of-plane stability. Fig.10 and Fig.11 In order to enhance the structural strength of the end column node, at least one reinforcing rib plate 206 is connected between the two node main plates 203 and between the two connecting ear plates 204. The reinforcing rib plate 206 can be welded to the node main plate 203 and the connecting ear plate 204.

[0077] Combination Fig.10 and Fig.11The connecting ear plate 204 includes a connecting portion 204a, and a connecting hole for connecting to the inclined cable assembly 400 is opened on the connecting portion 204a, and the connecting portion 204a is raised in the direction away from the end column 201. The upwardly raised structure of the connecting portion 204a can make the connection angle between the inclined cable assembly 400 and the end bracket 200 more reasonable, thereby optimizing the stress state of the inclined cable assembly 400, reducing the additional stress concentration caused by improper angles, and enhancing the reliability of the structure; in addition, the upwardly raised structure of the connecting portion 204a can reduce the friction between the inclined cable assembly 400 and the end column node to a certain extent. A column connecting plate 202 can be set at the bottom of the node main plate 203 by welding or the like, and the column connecting plate 202 is fixed to the end column 201 by bolts or other structures, which has a simple structure and is quick to install. Further, combined with Fig. 9 and Fig.10 In the vertical direction, the connection holes and the column connection plate 202 are staggered to further avoid friction between the inclined cable assembly 400 and the column connection plate 202, thereby extending the service life of the inclined cable assembly 400. The present application does not limit the specific angle of the connection portion 204a.

[0078] The connecting ear plate 204 is usually arranged on the side of the node main plate 203 away from the wind-resistant frame structure. When the cross beam 520 is also arranged on the side of the node main plate 203 away from the wind-resistant frame structure, in order to avoid the connecting ear plate 204 interfering with the rotation of the cross beam 520, Fig.10 and Fig.11 The connecting ear plate 204 includes an avoidance portion 204 b, and the avoidance portion 204 b has an avoidance space for avoiding the rotation of the beam 520.

[0079] Combination Fig. 9 and Fig.10 A drive mounting plate 205 is provided on one side of the node main body plate 203. The drive member 510 is fixed to the drive mounting plate 205 by bolt connection, welding, etc. The drive member 510 may be a reducer. Fig. 9 and Fig.12 The driving member 510 and the cross beam 520 can be connected by bolts or welding through the flange 522 or other components; further, the flange 522 and the cross beam 520 are also reinforced by triangular reinforcement plates, which are specifically arranged on the upper and lower sides of the cross beam 520 and limit the cross beam 520 to improve the stability of the cross beam 520 when it is subjected to unbalanced overturning force. Fig. 9 and Fig.10A welding avoidance notch 205a is also provided on the drive mounting plate 205, and the welding avoidance notch 205a is used to avoid the welding position of the reinforcing rib plate 206 and the connecting ear plate 204, so as to ensure the continuity of the weld between the reinforcing rib plate 206 and the connecting ear plate 204, and at the same time facilitate the on-site welding of the reinforcing rib plate 206 and the connecting ear plate 204 by tools such as a welding gun. The above-mentioned drive mounting plate 205 can extend to the column connecting plate 202 and be connected to the column connecting plate 202 to improve the reliability of the structure.

[0080] Combination Fig. 9 and Fig.11 The node body plate 203 is placed in the vertical direction. Under the prestressed action of the main cable 100 and the stabilizing cable 310, the cross beam 520 makes the force form between the driving member 510 and the driving mounting plate 205 compressive, and the pressure will be transmitted to the node body plate 203, the column connecting plate 202 and the end column 201 in sequence through the driving mounting plate 205. Since the welds on the transmission path all play an auxiliary compressive role, the unfavorable force form of the weld being tensile is avoided, thereby ensuring the reliability of the structure at the end column head node.

[0081] In order to ensure stable force, the center of gravity of the beam 520 located at the end bracket 200, the center of gravity of the driving member 510, the fixed positions of the beam 520 and the driving member 510, and the fixed positions of the driving member 510 and the end column head node should be set on the same straight line; accordingly, the center of gravity of the beam 520 and the driving member 510 located at the middle bracket 210 are both on the same straight line with the center of gravity of the middle bracket 210.

[0082] It should be noted that, since the horizontal tension in the middle of the main cable 100 is smaller than that at the end, the driving member 510 located on the end bracket 200 can use a horizontal reducer, and the driving member 510 located on the middle bracket 210 can use a low-cost vertical reducer to assist the main cable 100 in rotating. Fig.13 and Fig.14 The intermediate support 210 includes an intermediate column 211 and a connecting pipe 213, which are welded together via an intermediate connecting plate 212. The crossbeam 520 and the driving member 510 on the intermediate support 210 are both arranged on the connecting pipe 213, and the driving member 510 is bolted to the crossbeam 520 via a flange. In order to improve the structural strength, a plurality of stiffening plates 214 are arranged around the connecting pipe 213, and the stiffening plates 214 are connected to the intermediate connecting plate 212 and the connecting pipe 213.

[0084] Furthermore, the first wind-resistant frame 330 further includes a first reinforcing rod 333 , which is connected between the first connecting rod 331 and the second connecting rod 332 , and is used to reduce structural deformation of the three-dimensional wind-resistant frame and improve structural strength.

[0085] In some embodiments, in combination Figure 6 and Figure 7 The second wind-resistant frame 340 includes a top rod 341, a bottom rod 342 and a third connecting rod 343. The top rod 341 is connected to the main cable 100. The second cable 360 ​​connects the top rod 341 and the wind-resistant cable 320. The middle part of the bottom rod 342 is bent toward the top rod 341 to form the above-mentioned arc structure. The second connecting rod 332 is connected between the top rod 341 and the bottom rod 342, and together with the top rod 341 and the bottom rod 342, it forms a frame structure. The plane wind-resistant frame disclosed in the embodiment of the present application has a simple structure, low production cost, and good wind resistance. The arc structure of the bottom rod 342 can avoid the wind-resistant cable 320, so that the wind-resistant cable 320 has a higher arch height, and improves the high clearance advantage of the bottom of the flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket. One of the top rod 341 and the bottom rod 342 and the third connecting rod 343 can be an integrated structure, which is convenient for processing and production. The lengths of the top rod 341 and the bottom rod 342 can be the same or different.

The second reinforcing rod 344 can enhance the structural strength and wind resistance of the planar wind-resistant frame as a whole. The second reinforcing rod 344 can be welded to the top rod 341 and the bottom rod 342.

[0087] Combination Figure 2 There are multiple first wind-resistant frames 330, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the second wind-resistant frame 340, so that the flexible tracking photovoltaic bracket is uniformly stressed, convenient for arrangement, and improves the structural strength. Specifically, a second wind-resistant frame 340 is arranged in the middle of two adjacent support frames, and multiple second wind-resistant frames 340 are symmetrically arranged relative to the second wind-resistant frame 340.
