Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of photovoltaic support technology, specifically referring to an adjustable photovoltaic support. Background Technology
[0002] Patent CN117691932B discloses a followable photovoltaic panel mounting bracket. When there is a large parallel airflow near the ground, the bracket removes the angle restriction on the photovoltaic panel through decoupling, thereby reducing its windward area and the possibility of being overturned by the airflow. A comparison between this technical solution and the present solution shows that the present solution still has some unconsidered problems and areas for improvement.
[0003] First: Since the direction of the sun and the angle between the rays and the ground are different at sunrise, sunset and noon, neither horizontal rotation nor pitch change is the best solution to maintain high-efficiency power generation. Relatively speaking, except in the equatorial region, rotating the photovoltaic panels around an inclined axis can better keep the photovoltaic panels perpendicular to the sunlight. Second: The structural design of this technical solution can only be adapted to photovoltaic panels with individual pitch adjustment, and cannot be applied to mechanisms that can flip angles; Third: After decoupling, the photovoltaic panel should remain in a horizontal position to ensure that its windward area is minimized. Otherwise, when the airflow blows it and causes it to tilt, the tilt angle will continue to increase and the windward area will still increase.
[0004] Fourth: The comparison document senses wind speed parallel to the ground, but the angle of the photovoltaic panel is constantly changing. If it is midday, the angle between the photovoltaic panel and the ground is smaller, so it can withstand higher wind speeds. Therefore, the technical solution described in the comparison document may cause unnecessary decoupling, which will affect the power generation efficiency in the afternoon and increase the workload of resetting the photovoltaic panel.
[0005] Compared to the prior art, the main technical problem addressed by this solution is how to sense wind speed perpendicular to the photovoltaic panel and decouple it when a threshold is reached, and how to ensure that the photovoltaic panel can automatically reset to a horizontal state and lock after decoupling at any position. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the above issues and overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention proposes an adjustable photovoltaic support. A vertical wind pressure decoupling mechanism senses the wind pressure perpendicular to the photovoltaic panel. When the wind pressure is too high, the photovoltaic panel is automatically unlocked and flipped using a flip spring. The flipped photovoltaic panel is then locked in its position and angle by a horizontal locking mechanism, thus securing it in a horizontal state. An adjustment mechanism for the pitch compensation mechanism adapts to changes in the angle of sunlight at different latitudes and seasons. A swing-type light-aligning mechanism actively adjusts the orientation of the photovoltaic panel throughout the day, allowing it to follow the sun's movement.
[0007] The technical solution adopted by this invention is as follows: This invention proposes an adjustable photovoltaic support, including a vertical wind pressure decoupling mechanism, a horizontal locking mechanism, a swing-to-light mechanism, and a pitch compensation mechanism. The pitch compensation mechanism is disposed on the swing-to-light mechanism, the vertical wind pressure decoupling mechanism is disposed on the pitch compensation mechanism, and the horizontal locking mechanism is disposed at the end of the vertical wind pressure decoupling mechanism. The vertical wind pressure decoupling mechanism includes an elastic connecting component and a vertical wind pressure sensing component. The elastic connecting component is rotatably disposed on the pitch compensation mechanism, and the vertical wind pressure sensing component is disposed on the elastic connecting component.
[0008] The vertical wind pressure sensor can sense the pressure of airflow in the direction perpendicular to the photovoltaic panel. When the wind force perpendicular to the photovoltaic panel reaches a certain level, it automatically releases the original angle restriction on the photovoltaic panel and causes it to quickly flip and bounce back until it is in a horizontal state.
[0009] Furthermore, the elastic connection assembly includes a locking platform and a photovoltaic panel, and the vertical wind pressure sensing assembly includes a nut, a screw, and an impeller. The nut is disposed on the photovoltaic panel, and the screw and nut are threadedly driven. One end of the screw is provided with a push rod, and the impeller is disposed at the other end of the screw. The impeller is located outside the photovoltaic panel, and the plane of rotation of the impeller is perpendicular to the plane on which the photovoltaic panel is located.
[0010] Preferably, the elastic connection assembly further includes a flip spring, an elastic hook, and a latch. The flip spring is disposed between the photovoltaic panel and the oscillating light-aligning mechanism, the elastic hook is disposed on the photovoltaic panel, a power supply switch is provided on the back of the elastic hook, and the latch is disposed on the oscillating light-aligning mechanism and cooperates with the elastic hook.
[0011] Furthermore, the horizontal locking mechanism includes an arc-shaped limiting component, a hook component, and a circular anti-detachment component. The arc-shaped limiting component is disposed on the swing-aligning light mechanism, the hook component is disposed on the locking platform, and the circular anti-detachment component is symmetrically disposed on the hook component.
[0012] By triggering the horizontal locking mechanism, the photovoltaic panel can be automatically locked in position after being flipped to a horizontal state, preventing it from swinging randomly under the influence of wind force after being unlocked and being blown into the windward state again by the airflow.
[0013] Preferably, the arc-shaped limiting assembly includes a first arc-shaped rod, a second arc-shaped rod, and a return spring. The first and second arc-shaped rods are mounted on the main frame, and their central axes coincide. A notch is provided in the middle of the second arc-shaped rod. Two return springs are sleeved on the first arc-shaped rod and are symmetrically arranged.
[0014] Because the positions of the first and second arc-shaped rods are fixed, the photovoltaic panel can eventually be reset to a horizontal state relative to the ground, regardless of its angle and position before unlocking.
[0015] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the hook assembly includes a semi-circular hook, a spring base, a swing locking spring, and a swing locking block.

The ring buckle is engaged and slidably disposed at both ends of the semi-circular hook, the magnetic block is fixedly connected to the semi-circular hook, and the anti-detachment spring is sleeved on the ring buckle.
[0017] The process of adjusting the photovoltaic panel to a horizontal position consists of two steps: pitch reset and flip reset. When the flip spring is released, the semi-circular hook will latch onto the second arc-shaped rod and be locked by the sliding ring lock, thus completing the pitch reset. Subsequently, the arc-shaped slide will be reset to the middle position of the return spring under the action of the return spring and locked by the cooperation of the swing lock block and the notch, thus completing the flip reset.
[0018] Furthermore, the oscillating light-adjusting mechanism includes a base plate, a main frame, an oscillating assembly, and an oscillating drive assembly. The main frame is mounted on the base plate, the oscillating assembly is mounted on the base plate, and the oscillating drive assembly is mounted on the base plate.
[0019] The swing drive component can actively control the rotation angle of the swing frame. When the power switch is turned off, the drive motor will also be de-energized. At this time, the swing frame will be reset to the vertical state under the elastic force of the return spring.
[0020] Preferably, the swing assembly includes a pivot bracket, a pivot body, and a swing frame. The pivot bracket is mounted on the base plate and the main frame. The pivot body is rotatably mounted in the pivot bracket, and the swing frame is fixedly connected to the pivot body.
[0021] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the swing drive assembly includes a drive motor, a drive gear, and a driven gear. The drive motor is mounted on the base plate, the drive gear is fixed to the output shaft of the drive motor, and the driven gear is fixed to the rotating shaft body.

[0022] Furthermore, the pitch compensation mechanism includes a pitch compensation component and a pitch adjustment component. The pitch compensation component is slidably mounted on the first arc-shaped rod, and the pitch adjustment component is mounted on the pitch compensation component.
[0023] By rotating the handle, the angle of the tilt bracket can be actively adjusted, allowing the angle of the photovoltaic panel to be well adapted to different latitudes and seasons.
[0024] Preferably, the pitch compensation assembly includes an arc-shaped slide, a pitch support, and an adjusting strut. The arc-shaped slide is fixed to the swing frame and slidably mounted on the first arc-shaped rod. The centering spring is located at both ends of the arc-shaped slide. The locking platform and the pitch support are rotatably mounted on the arc-shaped slide. One end of the adjusting strut is hinged to the pitch support.
[0025] As a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the pitch adjustment assembly includes a lead screw support, an adjusting lead screw, and an adjusting nut. The lead screw support is mounted on the swing frame, the adjusting lead screw is rotatably mounted in the lead screw support, the end of the adjusting lead screw is provided with a handle, the adjusting nut is engaged and slidably mounted on the swing frame, the adjusting nut and the adjusting lead screw are threadedly connected, and the other end of the adjusting support rod is hinged to the adjusting nut.
[0026] The beneficial effects achieved by the present invention using the above structure are as follows: (1) The vertical wind pressure sensing component can sense the pressure of the airflow in the direction perpendicular to the photovoltaic panel, and when the wind force perpendicular to the photovoltaic panel reaches a certain level, it automatically releases the original angle restriction on the photovoltaic panel and makes it quickly flip and bounce back until it is in a horizontal state.
[0027] (2) By triggering the horizontal locking mechanism, the photovoltaic panel can be automatically locked after being flipped to the horizontal state, so as to prevent it from swinging randomly under the action of wind force after being unlocked and being blown to the windward state again by the airflow.
[0028] (3) Since the positions of the first arc rod and the second arc rod are fixed, the photovoltaic panel can eventually be reset to a horizontal state relative to the ground, regardless of its angle and position before unlocking.
[0029] (4) The process of adjusting the photovoltaic panel to a horizontal position consists of two steps: pitch reset and flip reset. The semi-circular hook will be hooked onto the second arc-shaped rod by the release of the spring force of the flip spring, and locked by the sliding ring lock, thus completing the pitch reset. Then the arc-shaped slide will be reset to the middle position of the return spring by the spring force of the return spring, and locked by the cooperation of the swing lock block and the notch, thus completing the flip reset.
[0030] (5) The swing drive assembly can actively control the rotation angle of the swing frame. When the power supply switch is turned off, the drive motor will also be de-energized. At this time, the swing frame will be reset to the vertical state under the elastic force of the return spring.
[0031] (6) By rotating the handle, the angle of the pitch support can be actively adjusted, so that the angle of the photovoltaic panel can be well adapted to different latitudes and seasons. Attached Figure Description

[0043] By rotating the handle 49, the angle of the pitch support 44 can be actively adjusted, so that the angle of the photovoltaic panel 8 can be well adapted to different latitudes and seasons.
[0044] The pitch compensation assembly 41 includes an arc-shaped slide 43, a pitch support 44, and an adjusting strut 45. The arc-shaped slide 43 is fixed to the swing frame 37 and slides on the first arc-shaped rod 20. The return spring 22 is located at both ends of the arc-shaped slide 43.

The other end of the adjusting support rod 45 is hinged to the adjusting nut 1248.
[0046] The vertical wind pressure decoupling mechanism 1 includes an elastic connection component 5 and a vertical wind pressure sensing component 6. The elastic connection component 5 is rotatably mounted on the pitch compensation mechanism 4, and the vertical wind pressure sensing component 6 is mounted on the elastic connection component 5.
[0047] The vertical wind pressure sensing component 6 can sense the pressure of the airflow in the direction perpendicular to the photovoltaic panel 8, and when the wind force perpendicular to the photovoltaic panel 8 reaches a certain level, it automatically releases the original angle restriction on the photovoltaic panel 8 and makes it quickly flip and bounce back until it is in a horizontal state.
[0048] The flexible connection assembly 5 includes a locking platform 7 and a photovoltaic panel 8. The vertical wind pressure sensing assembly 6 includes a nut 12, a screw 13 and an impeller 14. The nut 12 is mounted on the photovoltaic panel 8. The screw 13 and the nut 12 are threaded together. One end of the screw 13 is provided with a push rod 16. The impeller 14 is located at the other end of the screw 13. The impeller 14 is located outside the photovoltaic panel 8. The plane of rotation of the impeller 14 is perpendicular to the plane on which the photovoltaic panel 8 is located.
[0049] The elastic connection assembly 5 also includes a flip spring 9, an elastic hook 10, and a latch 11. The flip spring 9 is located between the photovoltaic panel 8 and the swing light-aligning mechanism 3. The elastic hook 10 is located on the photovoltaic panel 8. A power supply switch 15 is located on the back of the elastic hook 10. The latch 11 is located on the swing light-aligning mechanism 3 and cooperates with the elastic hook 10.
[0050] The horizontal locking mechanism 2 includes an arc-shaped limiting component 17, a hook component 18, and a circular anti-detachment component 19. The arc-shaped limiting component 17 is disposed on the swing-aligning light mechanism 3, the hook component 18 is disposed on the locking platform 7, and the circular anti-detachment component 19 is symmetrically disposed on the hook component 18.
[0051] By triggering the horizontal locking mechanism 2, the photovoltaic panel 8 can be automatically locked in position after being flipped to a horizontal state, preventing it from swinging randomly under the influence of wind force after being unlocked and being blown into the windward state again by the airflow.
[0052] The arc-shaped limiting assembly 17 includes a first arc-shaped rod 20, a second arc-shaped rod 21, and a return spring 22. The first arc-shaped rod 20 and the second arc-shaped rod 21 are mounted on the main frame 32. The central axes of the first arc-shaped rod 20 and the second arc-shaped rod 21 coincide. A notch 30 is provided in the middle position of the second arc-shaped rod 21. The return spring 22 is sleeved on the first arc-shaped rod 20 and two are symmetrically arranged.
[0053] Since the positions of the first arc rod 20 and the second arc rod 21 are fixed, the photovoltaic panel 8 can eventually be reset to a horizontal state relative to the ground, regardless of its angle and position before unlocking.
[0054] The hook assembly 18 includes a semi-circular hook 23, a spring base 24, a swing locking spring 25, and a swing locking block 26. The semi-circular hook 23 is located at the end of the locking platform 7, the spring base 24 is located on the semi-circular hook 23, the swing locking block 26 is engaged and slidably located in the semi-circular hook 23, the swing locking spring 25 is located between the spring base 24 and the swing locking block 26, and the swing locking block 26 matches the notch 30.
[0055] The circular anti-detachment component 19 includes a ring lock 1127, a magnetic block 28, and an anti-detachment spring 29. The ring lock 1127 is engaged and slidably disposed at both ends of the semi-circular hook 23, the magnetic block 28 is fixedly connected to the semi-circular hook 23, and the anti-detachment spring 29 is sleeved on the ring lock 1127.
[0056] The process of adjusting the photovoltaic panel 8 to a horizontal position consists of two steps: pitch reset and flip reset. When the flip spring 9 is released, the semi-circular hook 23 will hook onto the second arc-shaped rod 21 and be locked by the sliding ring lock 1127, thus completing the pitch reset. Subsequently, the arc-shaped slide 43 will be reset to the middle position of the return spring 22 under the action of the return spring 22 and locked by the cooperation of the swing lock block 26 and the notch 30, thus completing the flip reset.
[0057] In practical use, the user first needs to install the base plate 31 and make the center of the first arc rod 20 and the second arc rod 21 face the direction of the sun at noon at that location. Then, according to the location and latitude, the user can adjust the pitch angle of the photovoltaic panel 8 by rotating the handle part 49. When the handle 49 is rotated, the adjusting nut 1248 slides along the swing frame 37. At this time, by adjusting the support and linkage of the support rod 45, the angle of the pitch support 44 also changes accordingly, thereby adjusting the photovoltaic panel 8 to an angle perpendicular to the midday sun.
[0058] After the adjustment is completed, when the relative angle between the sun and the ground changes, the drive motor 38 rotates the shaft body 36, which in turn causes the swing frame 37, the pitch compensation mechanism 4, and the photovoltaic panel 8 to swing as a whole, thereby ensuring that the sunlight is always approximately perpendicular to the photovoltaic panel 8, thus achieving higher power generation efficiency.
[0059] When there is airflow in the outside, it will blow the impeller 14. Since the vertical wind pressure sensing component 6 is installed on the photovoltaic panel 8, and the plane of rotation of the impeller 14 is perpendicular to the plane of the photovoltaic panel 8, the impeller 14 actually senses the component of the airflow in the direction perpendicular to the photovoltaic panel 8. When the impeller 14 rotates, the push rod 16 will abut against the elastic hook 10. When the component of the airflow in the direction perpendicular to the photovoltaic panel 8 reaches a certain level, the push rod 16 will push the elastic hook 10 out of the latch 11. At this time, the photovoltaic panel 8 and the locking platform 7 will flip upward under the elastic force of the flipping spring 9. Since the first arc rod 20 and the second arc rod 21 are both rotating bodies with the rotating shaft body 36 as the axis, no matter what angle the swing frame 37 is at, when the photovoltaic panel 8 flips upward, the semi-circular hook 23 will be hooked on the second arc rod 21; at this time, the pitch reset is completed.
[0060] When the semi-circular hook 23 strikes the second arc-shaped rod 21, the annular latch 1127 will separate from the magnetic block 28 under the action of inertia and slide out from the semi-circular hook 23. After sliding out along the semi-circular hook 23, the annular latch 1127 will continue to slide out under the action of the anti-detachment spring 29 until the end of the annular latch 1127 contacts and attracts the magnetic block 28. At this time, the semi-circular hook 23 will not detach from the second arc-shaped rod 21. On the other hand, when the elastic hook 10 is pushed, the power supply switch 15 is also switched to the off state. At this time, the driven gear 40 loses power and position holding ability. The arc-shaped slide 43, together with the swing frame 37, will be reset to the middle state under the elastic force of the return spring 22. When the semi-circular hook 23 is also reset to the middle along with the arc-shaped slide 43, the swing lock block 26 will extend and lock into the notch 30 under the elastic force of the swing locking spring 25, thus completing the flip reset.
[0061] After both pitch reset and flip reset steps are completed, the photovoltaic panel 8 will be locked in a state parallel to the ground. In this state, the photovoltaic panel 8 is less affected by near-ground winds and is less likely to be overturned.
[0062] After the strong winds subside, you can manually reset the photovoltaic panel 8.
