[0002] Solar energy is a sustainable and clean energy source. Solar photovoltaic power generation is characterized by its simple layout and convenient maintenance, and has a wide range of applications. When photovoltaic brackets are used in mountainous areas, mechanical components, such as drive bases and main beams, need to be installed at an angle on the already installed pipe pile foundation. The already installed foundation has errors in the height direction and center distance direction. At the same time, the installation angle of the mechanical components to be installed is uncertain and needs to be adjusted as needed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: A multi-degree-of-freedom adjustable base for photovoltaic (PV) pipe pile installation includes: two drive clamps, each capable of being fixedly installed at different heights on the surface of the pipe pile on both sides; a welded base positioned between the two drive clamps for mounting PV mechanical components; two rotating components, one end of which is rotatably connected to the drive clamp on the same side, and the other end of which is fixedly connected to the welded base; a support clamp, which can be fixedly installed at different heights on the surface of the pipe pile on one side, and is located below the drive clamp on the same side; and a support rod, one end of which is rotatably connected to the drive clamp on one side via bolts, and the other end of which is rotatably connected to the support clamp. In use, the height and tilt angle of the welded base are adjusted by adjusting the positions of the drive clamps on the pipe pile, thereby improving the installation accuracy of the PV panel components. The support clamps and support rod also enhance the overall stability of the base.
[0005] Furthermore, the driving clamp includes a first half-clamp and a second half-clamp, which are connected by fastening bolts to form a complete ring that fits on the outer surface of the pipe pile. Two support plates are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the second half-clamp, which are distributed vertically. Four limiting plates are fixedly installed between the two support plates from front to back. A second through hole is opened in the middle of the limiting plate. A first fixing plate is fixedly installed at the bottom of the lower support plate. A first connecting hole is opened in the middle of the first fixing plate. The first connecting hole is connected to the support rod by fastening bolts.
[0006] Furthermore, the welding base includes an I-beam, with grooves provided on both the front and rear sides of the I-beam. A first connecting plate and a second connecting plate are fixedly installed on the left and right ends of the inner wall of the groove. Two second connecting plates are located between two first connecting plates, and a first through hole located on the same center line is opened in the middle of the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate. Several first mounting holes are opened on the top of the I-beam.
[0007] Furthermore, the rotating assembly includes a pin that passes through four second through holes and two hinge bolts sleeved on the front and rear surfaces of the pin. The two hinge bolts are respectively located between two limiting plates distributed front and rear. The threaded rod of the hinge bolt passes through two first through holes on the same side and is threadedly connected to a second fixing nut and a first fixing nut. The second fixing nut and the first fixing nut are located on both sides of the second connecting plate on the same side, and the threaded rod is fixed to the second connecting plate by the second fixing nut and the first fixing nut.
[0008] Furthermore, the outer surface of the pin is provided with screw holes on both the front and rear sides, with two screw holes located on both sides of the four limiting plates respectively, and the screw holes are internally threaded with studs.
[0009] Furthermore, the support clamp includes a third half clamp and a fourth half clamp, which are connected by fastening bolts to form a complete ring that fits on the surface of the pipe pile. A second fixing plate is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the fourth half clamp, and a second connecting hole is opened in the middle of the second fixing plate. The second connecting hole is connected to one end of the support rod by fastening bolts.
[0010] Furthermore, two support rods are provided, each in the shape of a "U". A first mating hole and a second mating hole are respectively opened on the left and right sides of the inner bottom wall of each support rod. Fastening bolts with nuts are inserted into the first mating hole and the first connecting hole, and fastening bolts with nuts are also inserted into the second mating hole and the second connecting hole. A second fixing plate and a first fixing plate are sandwiched between the two support rods, forming a triangular structure between the support rods, the welded base, and the pipe pile, thereby improving the overall structural stability.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This invention discloses a multi-degree-of-freedom adjustable base for photovoltaic (PV) pipe pile installation. It involves installing drive clamps on traditional pipe piles, with the drive clamps on both sides connected to a welded base via a rotating assembly. Adjusting the installation height of the drive clamps on the pipe piles on both sides causes the angle of the welded base to change accordingly via the rotating assembly, allowing the height and tilt angle of the welded base to adapt to installation requirements. Simultaneously, support rods and support clamps provide limiting and support for the welded base. The drive clamps, adjusting assembly, support rods, and support clamps of this invention work together to adjust the height and tilt angle of the welded base to appropriate positions, ensuring the installation accuracy of the mechanical components and meeting the needs of use under complex working conditions.

[0014] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0015] See Figure 1 As shown, this invention is a multi-degree-of-freedom adjustable base for photovoltaic pipe pile installation, comprising: a drive clamp 1, wherein two drive clamps 1 are provided, which can be fixedly installed at any different height on the surface of the pipe pile on both sides respectively. In actual use, the pipe pile can be a steel pipe or a circular column such as a cement column; a welded base 4, which is disposed between the two drive clamps 1, and the welded base 4 is used to install photovoltaic mechanical components; a rotating assembly 2, wherein two rotating assemblies 2 are provided, one end of the rotating assembly 2 is rotatably connected to the drive clamp 1 on the same side, and the other end of the rotating assembly 2 is fixedly connected to the welded base 4; a support clamp 3, which can be fixedly installed at any different height on the surface of the pipe pile on one side, and the support clamp 3 is located below the drive clamp 1 on the same side; and a support rod 5, one end of the support rod 5 is rotatably connected to the drive clamp 1 on one side by bolts, and the other end of the support rod 5 is rotatably connected to the support clamp 3.
[0016] This invention adjusts the height of the drive clamps 1 on both sides, and then drives the welding base 4 to move through the rotating component 2, thereby adjusting the height and tilt direction of the welding base 4. This allows for adjustment of the tilt angle and height of the mechanical components installed on the welding base 4, thereby improving the adaptability of the installation mechanical components to the center distance error of the two installed pipe piles.
[0017] See Figure 2 As shown, the driving clamp 1 includes a first half clamp 11 and a second half clamp 12. The first half clamp 11 and the second half clamp 12 are connected by fastening bolts to form a complete ring that fits on the outer surface of the pipe pile. Two support plates 13 are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the second half clamp 12, which are distributed vertically. Four limiting plates 14 are fixedly installed between the two support plates 13 from front to back. A second through hole 141 is opened in the middle of the limiting plate 14. A first fixing plate 15 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the lower support plate 13. A first connecting hole 151 is opened in the middle of the first fixing plate 15. The first connecting hole 151 is connected to the support rod 5 by fastening bolts.
[0018] Furthermore, both the first half-hoop 11 and the second half-hoop 12 are semi-circular. The first half-hoop 11 has a first fixing ear at both ends and a second fixing ear at both ends. The first fixing ear and the second fixing ear are symmetrically provided with bolt holes and fastening bolts with nuts are inserted to connect the first half-hoop 11 and the second half-hoop 12 into a complete ring that fits on the outer surface of the pipe pile.
[0019] Specifically, during the installation of the drive clamp 1, the first half clamp 11 and the second half clamp 12 are securely installed on the outside of the pipe pile by passing the fastening bolt through the bolt holes of the first and second fixing ears and connecting them with the nuts. When it is necessary to adjust the height of the drive clamp 1, simply loosen the nuts to adjust the drive clamp 1 up and down. Then, by rotating the component 2, the welding base 4 is moved, thereby adjusting the height and tilt angle of the welding base 4 to meet the installation requirements of photovoltaic mechanical components.
[0020] See Figure 4 As shown, the welding base 4 includes an I-beam 41. Grooves 411 are provided on both the front and rear sides of the I-beam 41. A first connecting plate 42 and a second connecting plate 43 are fixedly installed on the left and right ends of the inner wall of the groove 411. The two second connecting plates 43 are located between the two first connecting plates 42. A first through hole 44 located on the same center line is opened in the middle of the first connecting plate 42 and the second connecting plate 43. A plurality of first mounting holes 45 are opened on the top of the I-beam 41.
[0021] Specifically, the mechanical components of the photovoltaic panel are mounted on the welding base 4, which is connected to the adjustment assembly through through holes on both sides.
[0022] See Figure 3 As shown, the rotating assembly 2 includes a pin 21 that passes through four second through holes 141 and two hinge bolts 22 sleeved on the front and rear surfaces of the pin 21. The two hinge bolts 22 are respectively located between two limiting plates 14 distributed front and rear. The threaded rod of the hinge bolt 22 passes through two first through holes 44 on the same side and is threadedly connected to a second fixing nut 23 and a first fixing nut 24. The second fixing nut 23 and the first fixing nut 24 are located on both sides of the second connecting plate 43 on the same side, and the threaded rod is fixed to the second connecting plate 43 by the second fixing nut 23 and the first fixing nut 24.
[0023] Furthermore, screw holes 211 are provided on both the front and rear sides of the outer surface of the pin 21. The two screw holes 211 are located on both sides of the four limiting plates 14 respectively. The screw holes 211 are internally threaded with studs 25, and a knob is fixedly installed on the top of the studs 25.
[0024] Specifically, when it is necessary to adjust the height of the welding base 4, the position of the drive clamps 1 on both sides is adjusted, and the drive clamps 1 are fixedly installed at different heights of the pipe pile. When the pipe pile moves up and down, the drive clamps 1 on both sides will drive the hinge bolts 22 to rotate on the pin shaft 21, thereby changing the angle and height of the welding base 4, so as to better install the mechanical components on the welding base 4.
[0025] See Figure 6As shown, the support clamp 3 includes a third half clamp 31 and a fourth half clamp 32. The third half clamp 31 and the fourth half clamp 32 are connected by fastening bolts to form a complete ring that fits on the surface of the pipe pile. A second fixing plate 33 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the fourth half clamp 32. A second connecting hole 34 is opened in the middle of the second fixing plate 33. The second connecting hole 34 is connected to one end of the support rod 5 by fastening bolts.
[0026] Both the third half-hoop 31 and the fourth half-hoop 32 are semi-circular. Both ends of the third half-hoop 31 are provided with third fixing ears, and both ends of the fourth half-hoop 32 are provided with fourth fixing ears. The third fixing ears and the fourth fixing ears are symmetrically provided with bolt holes and fastening bolts with nuts are inserted to connect the third half-hoop 31 and the fourth half-hoop 32 into a complete ring fitted in the middle of the right-side pipe pile.
[0027] Furthermore, a first reinforcing plate is fixedly installed between the outer surface of the fourth half-hoop 32 and the fourth fixing ear, and a second reinforcing plate is fixedly installed between the fourth half-hoop 32 and the third fixing ear. The strength of the entire support hoop 3 is improved by setting the first and second reinforcing plates.
[0028] Specifically, in order to make the positions of the adjusted drive clamp 1 and welding base 4 more stable, the support clamp 3 and support rod 5 are set to cooperate with each other to form a stable triangular structure between the support rod 5, welding base 4 and pipe pile, so as to avoid the movement of the adjusted drive clamp 1 and welding base 4, thereby affecting the subsequent installation of photovoltaic mechanical components.
[0029] See Figure 5 As shown, there are two support rods 5. The support rods 5 are U-shaped. The left and right sides of the inner bottom wall of the support rod 5 are respectively provided with a first docking hole 51 and a second docking hole 52. Fastening bolts with nuts are installed in the first docking hole 51 and the first connecting hole 151. Fastening bolts with nuts are installed in the second docking hole 52 and the second connecting hole 34. The second fixing plate 33 and the first fixing plate 15 are sandwiched between the two support rods 5. The support rods 5, the welding base 4 and the pipe pile are combined to form an approximately triangular structure, thereby achieving a stable state and preventing the welding base 4 and the drive clamp 1 from moving after adjustment, which would affect the height and angle of the welding base 4 and thus affect the subsequent installation of mechanical components.
[0030] The working principle of this invention is as follows: At the photovoltaic panel installation site, the height of the drive clamp 1 on the pipe piles on both sides is adjusted according to the design elevation. Then, the welding base 4 is moved to a suitable height by rotating component 2. At the same time, the tilt angle of the welding base 4 itself also changes with the up and down displacement of the drive clamp 1, so that the height and tilt angle of the welding base 4 are in a reasonable position, which facilitates the subsequent installation of mechanical components on the welding base 4. After the position of the welding base 4 is determined, the fastening nut on the drive clamp 1 is tightened to make the drive clamp 1 firmly installed on the pipe pile. At the same time, the drive clamp 1 drives the support clamp 3 to move on the pipe pile through the support rod 5. After the drive clamp 1 is installed, the fastening nut on the support clamp 3 is tightened to make the support clamp 3 firmly fixed on the pipe pile. The support rod 5, the welding base 4 and the pipe pile form an approximately triangular stable structure, which provides stable support for the welding base 4 and prevents the welding base 4 from moving. This invention adjusts the height and tilt angle of the welding base 4 by installing a drive clamp 1 on a traditional pipe pile. At the same time, the support rod 5 and the support clamp 3 provide limiting and support for the welding base 4, which effectively improves the installation accuracy and meets the needs of use under complex working conditions.
