[0037] The mounting portion 10 is provided with a card interface 11, and the card interface 11 is used to snap onto the edge of the photovoltaic module 30, and the card interface 11 covers the edge of the photovoltaic module 30.
[0038] In the embodiment of the present application, the connection to the photovoltaic module 30 is achieved through the card interface 11 of the mounting portion 10. Since the card interface 11 covers the edge of the photovoltaic module 30, it has a good covering effect on the edge of the photovoltaic module 30, avoiding the generation of gaps between adjacent photovoltaic modules 30, enabling the edge of the photovoltaic module 30 to achieve a good waterproof function, preventing rainwater or snow water from easily depositing in the gaps and affecting the performance of the photovoltaic module 30, and also avoiding the problem of difficult maintenance at the gaps.

However, in order to enable the photovoltaic module to have a good connection strength with the color steel tile, a special structure, such as a suitable substrate, etc., needs to be provided at the bottom of the color steel tile, resulting in an increased load on the photovoltaic building structure, a relatively complex and cumbersome overall structure, and an increase in production costs.

Exemplarily, the materials of the installation part 10 and the connection part 20 can be metal, plastic, rubber, etc., such as aluminum alloy, galvanized steel, composite materials, etc. The materials of the installation part 10 and the connection part 20 can be the same or different, and the specific materials of the installation part 10 and the connection part 20 in the embodiment of the present application can be not limited.

The length of the photovoltaic module connection structure 50 can be 1100 mm, 1500 m, 2000 mm, 2300 mm, etc. The embodiment of the present application can be not limited to the specific length of the photovoltaic module connection structure 50 either.
[0044] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the number of the photovoltaic module connection structures 50 includes a plurality of; in the case of connecting two adjacent photovoltaic modules 30, the connection part 20 of one of the photovoltaic module connection structures 50 is connected to the connection part 20 of the other photovoltaic module connection structure 50.

Exemplarily, one photovoltaic module 30 can be correspondingly provided with four photovoltaic module connection structures 50. The photovoltaic module 30 can include four edges, and the four photovoltaic module connection structures 50 are respectively arranged on the four edges, so that the photovoltaic module connection structures 50 have a good covering and closing effect on the periphery of the photovoltaic module 30, avoiding the edges of the photovoltaic module 30 being exposed and easily immersed in rainwater or snow water, and having a good waterproof effect on the photovoltaic module 30. In addition, the number of the photovoltaic module connection structures 50 can also be set to 8, 12, 16, etc., and can be set according to actual needs. The embodiment of the present application can be not limited to the specific number of the photovoltaic module connection structures 50 set.
[0046] Optionally, in the embodiments of the present application, among two adjacent photovoltaic module connection structures 50, the connecting portion 20 of one of the photovoltaic module connection structures 50 is a first connecting buckle 21, and the connecting portion 20 of the other photovoltaic module connection structure 50 is a second connecting buckle 22; the first connecting buckle 21 is lapped on the second connecting buckle 22. In this way, a relatively stable and reliable connection effect between the connecting portions 20 of two adjacent photovoltaic module connection structures 50 is achieved through the first connecting buckle 21 and the second connecting buckle 22. The connecting portions 20 of two adjacent photovoltaic module connection structures 50 can be mutually adapted. For example, Figure 1 and 2 as shown, exemplarily, the first connecting buckle 21 and the second connecting buckle 22 have the same or similar shapes, and the two are arranged in an inverted manner so that the first connecting buckle 21 can be better lapped on the second connecting buckle 22.

In this way, the L-shaped first connecting buckle 21 can be better lapped on the L-shaped second connecting buckle 22, and the operation is easy, simple and convenient. For example, Figure 1 and2 As shown, the first connecting buckle 21 can be in a positive L shape, and the second connecting buckle 22 can be in an inverted L shape, that is, the two are arranged in reverse, so that the first connecting buckle 21 can be better lapped on the second connecting buckle 22.

In addition, the photovoltaic system can also be connected to a roofing fixing structure such as a roof beam. Specifically, the connecting beam 60 can be clamped on the roof beam through a fixture such as a clamping jaw to achieve a relatively stable and reliable connection between the photovoltaic system and the roofing.
