[0045] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0046] Example 1
[0047] like Figures 1-10 As shown, a photovoltaic system component assembly equipment includes a conveying mechanism 2 for supporting and conveying an inclined beam 11, a first installation mechanism 3 disposed outside the conveying mechanism 2 for conveying and installing a column 12 and a first connecting rod 15, a second installation mechanism 4 disposed outside the conveying mechanism 2 for conveying and installing a support mechanism 14 and a second connecting rod 16, a detection mechanism 5 disposed on the conveying mechanism 2 for rotating the photovoltaic system components for collection and inspection, and a strapping machine 6 disposed outside the first conveying mechanism 2 for bundling the photovoltaic system components.
[0048] In this embodiment, during the process of conveying the inclined beam 11 by the conveying mechanism 2, the first installation mechanism 3 and the second installation mechanism 4 are used to install the column 12, the first connecting rod 15, the support mechanism 14 and the second connecting rod 16 on the inclined beam 11. Then, the detection mechanism 5 is used to gather the column 12, the first connecting rod 15, the support mechanism 14 and the second connecting rod 16 into the inclined beam 11 for detection. Finally, the binding machine 6 is used to bind them, thus completing the automated production.
[0049] In detail, firstly, the inclined beam 11 is conveyed to the first installation mechanism 3 via the conveying mechanism 2, and then the column 12 is conveyed to the first receiving area 112 via the first installation mechanism 3, and the first connecting rod 15 is conveyed to the second receiving area 115. Installation is carried out under the receiving and positioning functions of the first receiving area 112 and the second receiving area 115. Then, the column 12 is rotated to open, and the conveying mechanism 2 conveys the inclined beam 11 to the second installation mechanism 4. Then, the support mechanism 14 is installed between the column 12 and the inclined beam 11 via the second installation mechanism 4, and at the same time, the second connecting rod 16 is conveyed between the two second reinforcing plates 113. Installation is carried out under the positioning function of the two second reinforcing plates 113. Finally, the conveying mechanism 2 conveys the inclined beam 11 to the detection mechanism 5 to gather the column 12, the first connecting rod 15, the support mechanism 14 and the second connecting rod 16. After the detection is completed, the components are bundled by the strapping machine 6.
[0050] It should be noted that the strapping machine 6 itself and its installation method are existing technologies, and will not be described in detail here.
[0051] like Figures 10-11 As shown, the conveying mechanism 2 includes a conveying component 21, a clamping component 22 disposed on the conveying component 21 for clamping the positioning inclined beam 11, a first conveying component 23 disposed on the outside of the conveying mechanism for conveying the inclined beam 11, and a first gripping component disposed between the conveying component 21 and the first conveying component 23 for gripping the inclined beam 11 on the first conveying component 23 onto the clamping component 22.
[0052] In this embodiment, after the first conveying component 23 is used in conjunction with the gripping component to grip and position the component on the clamping component 22, the installation and testing of each component are completed during the conveying process by the conveying component 21.
[0053] It should be noted that the conveying component 21 is a roller guide rail conveyor line, and the roller guide rail conveyor line is in two sections. The two sections of the roller guide rail conveyor line are conveyed through the upper and lower ends of the clamping component 22 respectively, so as to avoid interference with the rotation of the first connecting rod 15 and the second connecting rod 16 on the upper and lower sides of the inclined beam 11 during the detection.
[0054] As shown in the figure Figure 11As shown, the clamping assembly 22 has two opening and closing mechanisms on the conveying mechanism and is used to support the inclined beam 11 and the clamping plate 221 that clamps the second reinforcing plate 113.
[0055] In this embodiment, the inclined beam 11 is supported and clamped by setting two opening and closing clamping plates 221.
[0056] In detail, during use, the two clamping plates 221 are opened, the first gripping component places the inclined beam 11 on the two clamping plates 221 and makes the second reinforcing rib located between the two clamping plates 221. Then the two clamping plates 221 are closed to clamp the second reinforcing rib, thus completing the support and positioning of the inclined beam 11.
[0057] like Figure 10 , Figures 12-13 as well as Figures 16-17 As shown, the first installation mechanism 3 includes a second conveying assembly 31 disposed outside the conveying mechanism 2 for conveying the column 12, a second gripping assembly disposed between the second conveying assembly 31 and the conveying mechanism 2 for gripping the column 12 on the second conveying assembly 31 into the first receiving area 112 of the inclined beam 11, a first positioning assembly 32 disposed on the conveying mechanism 2 for positioning the connection between the column 12 and the inclined beam 11, a first connecting assembly disposed outside the conveying mechanism 2 for rotating the connecting bolt 131 to force the column 12 to rotate 180° after connecting the connecting bolt 131 between the column 12 and the inclined beam 11, a third conveying assembly 33 disposed outside the conveying mechanism 2 for conveying the first connecting rod 15, a third gripping assembly disposed between the third conveying assembly 33 and the conveying mechanism 2 for gripping the first connecting rod 15 on the third conveying assembly 33 into the second receiving area 115 of the inclined beam 11, and a second positioning assembly 34 disposed on the conveying mechanism 2 for positioning the connection between the first connecting rod 15 and the inclined beam 11.
[0058] In this embodiment, by setting the second conveying component 31 and the third conveying component 33 in conjunction with the second gripping component and the third gripping component to convey the column 12 and the first connecting rod 15 into the inclined beam 11, they can be positioned in conjunction with the first positioning component 32 and the second positioning component 34, which facilitates subsequent connection by bolts. At the same time, the first connecting piece connects the column 12 and the inclined beam 11, which forces the column 12 to rotate, which facilitates subsequent installation and testing.
[0059] like Figure 12 as well as Figure 16As shown, the first positioning component 32 includes a first push plate 321 that is movable on the conveying mechanism 2 in the direction of approaching or moving away from the inclined beam 11 and cooperates with the conveying mechanism 2 to push the column 12 to slide in the first receiving area 112 during the process of conveying the inclined beam 11; a first mounting seat 322 that is movable on the conveying mechanism 2 in the direction of approaching or moving away from the inclined beam 11; a first positioning post 323 that is slidably disposed on the first mounting seat 322; and a first elastic member 324 disposed on the first mounting seat 322 and used to force the first positioning post 323 to be inserted into the connection between the column 12 and the inclined beam 11.
[0060] In this embodiment, the first push plate 321, in conjunction with the conveying mechanism 2, pushes the first positioning column 323 to be inserted into the connection between the column 12 and the inclined beam 11 for positioning during the conveying process of the conveying inclined beam 11.
[0061] In detail, during positioning, the first push plate 321 and the first mounting base 322 move toward the inclined beam 11, and the first positioning post 323 abuts against the inclined beam 11. During the process of conveying the inclined beam 11 by the conveying mechanism 2, the column 12 slides in the first receiving area 112 until the connection between the column 12 and the inclined beam 11 is aligned. Then, the first elastic member 324 forces the first positioning post 323 to be inserted from one side of the connection between the column 12 and the inclined beam 11 for positioning, so that the connection can be made by inserting a bolt on the other side of the connection between the column 12 and the inclined beam 11.
[0062] It should be noted that the first positioning post 323 is provided with a guide slope or guide arc surface to facilitate insertion into the connection between the column 12 and the inclined beam 11.
[0063] like Figure 13 as well as Figure 16 As shown, the second positioning assembly 34 includes a second push plate 341 that is movably disposed on the conveying mechanism 2 along the direction of approaching or away from the inclined beam 11 and is used to push the first connecting rod 15 into the second receiving area 115 for positioning; a third push plate 342 that is movably disposed on the conveying mechanism 2 along the direction of approaching or away from the inclined beam 11 and is used to push the first connecting rod 15 to slide in the second receiving area 115 during the process of conveying the inclined beam 11 with the conveying mechanism 2; a second mounting seat 343 that is movably disposed on the conveying mechanism 2 along the direction of approaching or away from the inclined beam 11; a second positioning post 344 that is slidably disposed on the second mounting seat 343; and a second elastic member 344 disposed on the second mounting seat 343 and used to force the second positioning post 344 to be inserted into the connection between the first connecting rod 15 and the inclined beam 11.
[0064] In this embodiment, after the second push plate 341 pushes the first connecting rod 15 into the second receiving groove for positioning, the third push plate 342, in conjunction with the conveying mechanism 2, pushes the second positioning post 344 to be inserted into the connection between the first connecting rod 15 and the inclined beam 11 for positioning during the process of conveying the inclined beam 11.
[0065] In detail, during positioning, the second push plate 341, the third push plate 342, and the second mounting base 343 move toward the inclined beam 11. The second push plate 341 pushes the first connecting rod 15 into the second receiving groove for positioning. The second positioning pin 344 abuts against the inclined beam 11. During the conveying process of the conveying mechanism 2, the first connecting rod 15 slides in the first receiving area 112 until the connection between the first connecting rod 15 and the inclined beam 11 is aligned. Then, the second elastic element 344 forces the second positioning pin 344 to be inserted from one side of the connection between the first connecting rod 15 and the inclined beam 11 for positioning. Then, the connection can be made by inserting a bolt on the other side of the connection between the first connecting rod 15 and the inclined beam 11.
[0066] It should be noted that the second positioning post 344 is provided with a guide slope or guide arc surface to facilitate insertion into the connection between the first connecting rod 15 and the inclined beam 11;
[0067] In addition, the first elastic element 324 and the second elastic element 344 are helical springs, leaf springs, etc., and their installation methods are existing technologies, which will not be described in detail here.
[0068] like Figure 10 , Figures 12-14 as well as Figure 17 As shown, the second installation mechanism 4 includes a fourth conveying assembly 41 disposed outside the conveying mechanism 2 for conveying the support mechanism 14, a fourth gripping assembly disposed between the fourth conveying assembly 41 and the conveying mechanism 2 for gripping the support mechanism 14 on the fourth conveying assembly 41 into the third receiving area 122 of the column 12, a third positioning assembly 42 disposed on the conveying mechanism 2 for positioning the connection between the support mechanism 14 and the column 12, a fifth conveying assembly 43 disposed outside the conveying mechanism 2 for conveying the second connecting rod 16, a fifth gripping assembly disposed between the fifth conveying assembly 43 and the conveying mechanism 2 for gripping the second connecting rod 16 on the fifth conveying assembly 43 into the connection between the two second reinforcing plates 113 of the inclined beam 11, and a fourth positioning assembly 44 disposed on the conveying mechanism 2 for positioning the connection between the second connecting rod 16 and the column 12.
[0069] In this embodiment, by setting the fourth conveying component 41 and the fifth conveying component 43 in conjunction with the fourth gripping component and the fifth gripping component to convey the support mechanism 14 and the second connecting rod 16 into the inclined beam 11, they can be positioned in conjunction with the third positioning component 42 and the fourth positioning component 44, which facilitates the subsequent rotational connection between the support mechanism 14 and the column 12 through the mounting shaft, and facilitates the subsequent connection between the second connecting rod 16 and the column 12 through bolts.
[0070] It should be noted that the third positioning component 42 has the same structure as the first positioning component 32, and the fourth positioning component 44 has the same structure as the second positioning component 34, which will not be described in detail here.
[0071] In addition, the first conveying component 23, the second conveying component 31, the third conveying component 33, the fourth conveying component 41, and the fifth conveying component 43 are step conveying devices for conveying rods, the first gripping component, the second gripping component, the third gripping component, the fourth gripping component, and the fifth gripping component are robotic arms, and the device for installing the rotating shaft is a rotating shaft installation machine. The step conveying device, the robotic arm (not shown in the attached figure), and the rotating shaft installation machine (not shown in the attached figure) and their installation methods are all existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.
[0072] like Figure 10 , Figure 15 as well as Figures 18-19 As shown, the detection mechanism 5 includes a first rotating rod 51 that moves along the direction of the inclined beam 11 and is mounted on the conveying mechanism 2 to force the first connecting rod 15 to unfold and then retract during the conveying process of the inclined beam 11; a second rotating rod 52 that moves along the direction of the inclined beam 11 and is mounted on the conveying mechanism 2 to force the second connecting rod 16 to unfold and then retract during the conveying process of the inclined beam 11; a support plate 54 that moves along the direction of the inclined beam 11 and is mounted on the conveying mechanism 2 to support the second connecting rod 16 in a horizontal position; a second connecting assembly that is mounted on the outside of the conveying mechanism 2 to connect the limiting bolt 132 to the connecting bolt 131 and then rotates the limiting bolt 132 to force the column 12 of the connecting bolt 131 to rotate into the first receiving area 112; and a third rotating rod 53 that moves along the direction of the inclined beam 11 and is mounted on the conveying mechanism 2 to force the support mechanism 14 to rotate into the third receiving area 122 during the rotation of the column 12 in coordination with the second connecting assembly.
[0073] In this embodiment, by setting the first rotating rod 51 and the second rotating rod 52 to push the first connecting rod 15 and the second connecting rod 16 to unfold and then retract them, after completing the detection of the first connecting rod 15 and the second connecting rod 16, the second connecting rod 16 is supported in a horizontal position with the support plate 54, and then the two ends of the first connecting rod 15 and the second connecting rod 16 are connected and fixed by bolts; by setting the second connecting component connecting limit bolt 132 to force the column 12 to rotate, the third rotating rod 53 is used to force the support mechanism 14 to rotate into the third receiving area 122, thus completing the detection of the column 12 and the support mechanism 14.
[0074] It should be noted that during the installation of the support mechanism 14, the adjusting column 1421 on it is locked by the second locking plate 14243 to prevent the adjusting column 1421 from extending out and interfering with the installation and testing process;
[0075] In addition, both the first and second connecting components are bolt tightening machines. Other components that are connected by bolts are also connected by bolt tightening mechanisms. The bolt tightening machines themselves and their installation methods are existing technologies and are not shown in the attached drawings, so they will not be described in detail here.
[0076] Example 2
[0077] Components that are the same as or corresponding to those in Embodiment 1 are referred to using the same reference numerals as in Embodiment 1. For simplicity, only the differences from Embodiment 1 are described below. The difference between Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 is as follows:
[0078] A method for assembling photovoltaic system components includes the following steps:
[0079] Step 1: First assembly process, fix the inclined beam 11, transport the column 12 into the first receiving area 112, and transport the first connecting rod 15 into the second receiving area 115.

[0080] Step 2: Second assembly process. Rotate the column 12 to open it, and the support mechanism 14 can be installed between the column 12 and the inclined beam 11. At the same time, the second connecting rod 16 can be transported between the two second reinforcing plates 113. Under the positioning action of the two second reinforcing plates 113, the second connecting rod 16 is pushed towards the column 12 until it is positioned at the connection point between it and the column 12, and then it can be connected and fixed to complete the assembly of the photovoltaic system accessories.
[0081] Step 3: Inspection process. Rotate the first connecting rod 15 and the second connecting rod 16 to open and then rotate them to close. Then rotate the column 12 to close. The support mechanism 14 and the second connecting rod 16 are hidden in the first receiving area 112 along with the column 12, so that the various components are in a closed state after inspection. After the inspection of the photovoltaic system accessories is completed, the limiting mechanism 13 is installed on the inclined beam 11 and the column 12 to restrict the rotation between them.
[0082] Step 4: Bundling process. The assembled and tested photovoltaic system components are transported to the bundling machine 6 for bundling. The column 12, support mechanism 14 and second connecting rod 16 are confined within the first receiving area 112, and the first connecting rod 15 is placed within the second receiving area 115.

[0086] Two first reinforcing plates 111 are provided on one side of the inclined beam 11, and a first receiving area 112 for accommodating the column 12, the support mechanism 14 and the second connecting rod 16 is formed between the two first reinforcing plates 111. Two second reinforcing plates 113 are provided on the other side of the inclined beam 11. A positioning plate 114 is provided on the first reinforcing plate 111, and a second receiving area 115 for accommodating the first connecting rod 15 is formed between the positioning plate 114 and the end of the inclined beam 11.
[0087] In this embodiment, by setting up inclined beams 11, columns 12, first connecting rods 15 and second connecting rods 16 that are rotatably connected to each other, along with first and second accommodating areas 112 and 115, the photovoltaic system components can be unfolded and retracted. When unfolded, two adjacent photovoltaic system components can be connected to each other, and the stability is improved by limiting mechanism 13 and support mechanism 14. During installation, the need for manual connection operations is reduced, making installation simple, efficient, and time-saving, thereby reducing safety hazards. When retracted, columns 12, first connecting rods 15, support mechanism 14 and second connecting rods 16 are hidden inside inclined beams 11, reducing volume and facilitating storage and transportation.
[0088] In detail, during installation, the limiting mechanism 13 is first opened, and the inclined beam 11 is rotated to expose the column 12 from the first receiving area 112. Then, multiple columns 12 are installed at intervals, and multiple inclined beams 11 are supported at the same tilt angle by the support mechanism 14. Finally, one end of the first connecting rod 15 is disassembled from the inclined beam 11 and rotated to the adjacent inclined beam 11 for connection. At the same time, one end of the second connecting rod 16 is disassembled from the column 12 and rotated to the adjacent column 12 for connection. The disassembly and connection method of the first connecting rod 15 and the second connecting rod 16 further reduces the number of parts to carry, reduces the burden on workers, further reduces operation, and reduces safety hazards.
[0089] It should be noted that the stability of the inclined beam 11 is improved by setting the first reinforcing plate 111 and the second reinforcing plate 113, and the stability of the installation is improved by setting the positioning plate 114 to facilitate the installation of the first connecting rod 15.
[0090] Furthermore, such as Figures 2-6 As shown, the first reinforcing plate 111 has a plurality of adjustment holes 1111 spaced apart along its length;
[0091] The support mechanism 14 includes a support rod 141 rotatably connected to the lower end of the column 12 at one end, and an adjustment component 142 disposed at the end of the support rod 141 away from the column 12 and detachably connected to the adjustment hole 1111.
[0092] In this embodiment, by setting the adjustment component 142 to be connected to each adjustment hole 1111 and cooperating with the support rod 141, the inclined beam 11 is supported at various tilt angles.
[0093] In detail, when the tilt angle of the inclined beam 11 changes, the adjustment component 142 rotates with the support rod 141 and is connected to a corresponding adjustment hole 1111 to achieve the support function.
[0094] It should be noted that grooves 1411 are formed on both sides of the support rod 141, which provides sufficient space for installing the adjustment component 142, thereby avoiding interference with the closing of the support rod 141 and the column 12.
[0095] Furthermore, such as Figures 4-6 As shown, the adjustment assembly 142 includes two adjustment posts 1421 slidably connected to both sides of the support rod 141 and used to connect to the adjustment hole 1111, two push rods 1422 respectively disposed on the two adjustment posts 1421 and used to push the adjustment posts 1421 out of the adjustment hole 1111, an elastic member 1423 disposed on the support rod 141 and used to force the two adjustment posts 1421 to be inserted into the adjustment hole 1111, and a locking member 1424 disposed on the support rod 141 and used to limit the sliding of the adjustment posts 1421.
[0096] In this embodiment, by setting an adjusting column 1421 in conjunction with a push rod 1422, the disassembly and connection between the adjusting column 1421 and the adjusting hole 1111 can be realized. The elastic element 1423 is used to facilitate the automatic connection between the adjusting column 1421 and the adjusting hole 1111. At the same time, a locking element 1424 is used to restrict the sliding of the adjusting column 1421 when the adjusting column 1421 is disassembled from the adjusting hole 1111, so as to prevent the adjusting column 1421 from getting stuck in the adjusting hole 1111 again during the process of adjusting the support angle with the support rod 141.
[0097] In detail, when adjusting the angle, pushing the push rod 1422 forces the adjusting column 1421 to disengage from one adjusting hole 1111. Then, the locking member 1424 restricts the rotation of the adjusting column 1421. Finally, after adjusting the angle by rotating the support rod 141, the restriction of the locking member 1424 is released, and the adjusting column 1421 automatically springs back into the other adjusting hole 1111 under the action of the elastic member 1423, thus completing the angle adjustment.
[0098] It should be noted that the elastic element 1423 is a coil spring, leaf spring, etc., and its own technology and installation method are existing technologies, which will not be described in detail here.
[0099] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown, limiting plates 1112 are provided on both sides of the first receiving area 112, and the limiting plates 1112 and the inclined beam 11 form a limiting area 1113 for restricting the adjusting column 1421 from leaving the first receiving area 112.
[0100] In this embodiment, a limiting area 1113 is formed by setting a limiting plate 1112. When the adjusting column 1421 adjusts the support angle with the support rod 141, the limiting area 1113 restricts the adjusting column 1421 from leaving the first receiving area 112, which makes it easier for the adjusting column 1421 to be reconnected in the adjusting hole 1111, reducing the installation difficulty of the support mechanism 14, further reducing the installation operation, and improving the installation efficiency.
[0101] Furthermore, such as Figures 4-6 As shown, the locking member 1424 includes a mounting base 14241 slidably disposed on the support rod 141 in a direction close to or away from the adjusting column 1421; two first locking plates 14242 disposed on the mounting base 14241 and sliding with the mounting base 14241 respectively for pushing the two adjusting columns 1421 to slide with the two push rods 1422 until they disengage from the adjusting hole 1111; and two second locking plates 14243 disposed on the two first locking plates 14242 respectively and sliding with the mounting base 14241 respectively for pushing the two adjusting columns 1421 to slide with the two push rods 1422 until they disengage from the limiting area 1113.
[0102] In this embodiment, by setting the mounting base 14241 to drive the first locking plate 14242 and the second locking plate 14243 to slide, the adjusting column 1421 is driven to slide synchronously with the push rod 1422, which is convenient for operation. It also realizes the segment locking of the adjusting column 1421, which is convenient for the adjusting column 1421 to be connected in the adjusting hole 1111 and convenient for the adjusting column 1421 to be disassembled and installed in the limiting area 1113.
[0103] It should be noted that under the squeezing action of the elastic element 1423, the friction between the push rod 1422 and the first locking plate 14242 and the second locking plate 14243 is large enough to require manual operation to avoid easy slippage and improve stability.
[0104] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-2 as well as Figure 8 As shown, two third reinforcing plates 121 are provided on one side of the column 12, and a third receiving area 122 for accommodating the support rod 141 is formed between the two second reinforcing plates 113.
[0105] In this embodiment, by setting a second reinforcing plate 113 to form a third receiving area 122, the strength of the column 12 is improved while the column 12 and the support rod 141 are completely received in the first receiving area 112.
[0106] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 as well as Figure 7As shown, a first mounting hole 116 is provided through the middle of the inclined beam 11 and the positioning plate 114 at corresponding positions. A first connecting hole 117 is provided at one end of the inclined beam 11 and the positioning plate 114 at corresponding positions. A first connecting rod 15 is provided through the end of the inclined beam 11 away from the positioning plate 114. One end of the first connecting rod 15 is rotatably connected to the first mounting hole 116 on the inclined beam 11, and the other end is detachably connected to the first connecting hole 117 on the inclined beam 11 or the first splicing hole 118 on another inclined beam 11.
[0107] In this embodiment, by providing the first mounting hole 116, the first connecting hole 117, and the first splicing hole 118, the first support rod 141 can be fixedly connected to an inclined beam 11, preventing the first support rod 141 from detaching from the inclined beam 11 during transportation. At the same time, the first support rod 141 can be disassembled from one inclined beam 11 and then connected and fixed to another adjacent inclined beam 11, improving stability and reducing the number of parts that workers need to carry, thus reducing the burden on workers.
[0108] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 as well as Figure 8 As shown, the column 12 is provided with a second mounting hole 123, a second splicing hole 124 and a second connecting hole 125 from top to bottom. One end of the second connecting rod 16 is rotatably connected to the second mounting hole on the column 12, and the other end is detachably connected to the second connecting hole on the column 12 or the second splicing hole on another column 12.
[0109] In this embodiment, by providing a second mounting hole 123, a second splicing hole 124, and a second connecting hole 125, the second support rod 141 can be fixedly connected to a column 12, preventing the second support rod 141 from detaching from the column 12 during transportation. At the same time, the second support rod 141 can be disassembled from one column 12 and then connected and fixed to another adjacent column 12, improving stability and reducing the number of parts that workers need to carry, thus reducing the burden on workers.
[0110] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 Figure 3 as well as Figure 9 As shown, the limiting mechanism 13 includes a connecting bolt 131 with one end rotatably connected to a first reinforcing plate 111 and the other end threadedly connected to a column 12, and a limiting bolt 132 with one end rotatably connected to another reinforcing plate and the other end threadedly connected to a connector until the connector clamps the inclined beam 11 and the column 12.
[0111] In this embodiment, by setting the connecting bolt 131 in conjunction with the limiting bolt 132, the rotational connection between the inclined beam 11 and the column 12 is realized, and the rotation between the inclined beam 11 and the column 12 is restricted.
[0112] In detail, when the limiting bolt 132 is loosened or tightened between the connecting bolt 131, the inclined beam 11 and the column 12 can rotate. When the limiting bolt 132 is tightened between the connecting bolt 131, the rotation between the inclined beam 11 and the column 12 is restricted.
