[0019] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. 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.
[0020] Please see Figures 1 to 5A positioning device for a solar photovoltaic panel includes a photovoltaic panel body 1, a base 2 fixedly mounted on the lower end face of the photovoltaic panel body 1, a prefabricated seat 3 disposed on the lower side of the base 2, a slot 6 formed on the upper end face of the prefabricated seat 3, an insert rod 5 fixedly mounted on the lower end face of the base 2, an inner cavity 4 formed inside the prefabricated seat 3, and a positioning mechanism disposed inside the inner cavity 4. The positioning mechanism includes a locking element disposed inside the inner cavity 4, and the locking element includes a fixing post 7 fixedly mounted inside the inner cavity 4. The outer surface is rotatably connected to crossbar 8 and crossbar 9. The lower end face of the inner cavity 4 is fixedly installed with telescopic rod 10. The end of telescopic rod 10 is fixedly installed with transmission rod 11. The upper end face of transmission rod 11 has a sliding groove 12 on the right side. The sliding rod 13 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 12. The sliding rod 13 is rotatably connected to crossbar 9. The upper end face of transmission rod 11 has a sliding groove 14 on the left side. The sliding rod 15 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 14. The sliding rod 15 is rotatably connected to crossbar 8.
[0021] Both ends of the crossbar 18 and the crossbar 29 are fixedly installed with clamping plates 16. The inner wall of the clamping plate 16 is fixedly installed with the insertion rod 2 17. The outer surface of the insertion rod 15 is provided with a slot 2 18 corresponding to the insertion rod 2 17.
[0022] The first crossbar 8 is set on the upper side of the second crossbar 9. The first crossbar 8 and the second crossbar 9 are arranged in an X shape. The clamping plate 16 on the first crossbar 8 and the clamping plate 16 on the second crossbar 9 are arranged symmetrically.
[0023] When the base 2 on the photovoltaic panel body 1 needs to be installed quickly, the insertion rod 5 on the base 2 is inserted into the slot 6 on the prefabricated base 3. Then, the telescopic rod 10 is activated, causing the transmission rod 11 to move forward. The sliding rod 15 rotatably connected to the crossbar 8 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 14 on the transmission rod 11. Similarly, the sliding rod 13 rotatably connected to the crossbar 9 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 12 on the transmission rod 11. The crossbar 8 and the crossbar 9 are rotatably connected to the outer surface of the fixed column 7, forming an X-shaped structure. Therefore, under the push of the transmission rod 11, the crossbar 8 will rotate counterclockwise, and the crossbar 9 will rotate clockwise. In this way, the clamping plate 16 on the crossbar 8 and the clamping plate 16 on the crossbar 9 can cooperate to clamp and fix the insertion rod 5. At the same time, the insertion rod 17 on the clamping plate 16 will be inserted into the slot 18 for further limiting.
[0024] The positioning mechanism also includes reinforcing members on both sides of the inner cavity 4. The reinforcing members include slide rails 19 fixedly installed at both ends of the transmission rod 11, and the outer surface of the insertion rod 5 is provided with a bayonet 20 corresponding to the slide rail 19.
[0025] The slide rail 19 has a slider 21 inside, and the outer side of the plug rod 5 has an arc rod 22, one end of which is fixedly connected to the slider 21.
[0026] The upper end face of the arc rod 22 is provided with a sliding groove 23, and a limiting block 24 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 23. The limiting block 24 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the inner cavity 4.
[0027] The upper end of the insertion rod 5 has a notch 25 corresponding to the arc rod 22, and two sets of reinforcing members are provided, which are arranged symmetrically.
[0028] Secondly, the transmission rod 11 will carry the slide rails 19 at both ends to move, and the slide rails 19 will be inserted into the slot 20 on the insertion rod 5 for limiting and fixing. The slider 21 fixedly installed at the end of the arc rod 22 is slidably connected to the slide rail 19. The sliding groove 23 opened on the arc rod 22 is slidably connected to the limiting block 24. Therefore, the limiting block 24 will limit and guide the sliding direction of the arc rod 22. Thus, under the push of the slide rail 19, the arc rod 22 will be pushed forward and moved to the upper side of the notch 25 on the insertion rod 5 to lock and limit the insertion rod 5.
[0029] The positioning mechanism also includes an auxiliary component disposed inside the precast base 3. The auxiliary component includes an extrusion plate 27 fixedly installed inside the inner cavity 4. The extrusion plate 27 is disposed on the front side of the transmission rod 11.
[0030] An air bladder 26 is fixedly installed between the transmission rod 11 and the extrusion plate 27. A piston chamber 28 is opened inside the precast seat 3. A connecting cavity is provided between the air bladder 26 and the piston chamber 28. A piston plate 29 is slidably connected inside the piston chamber 28. An insert rod 30 is fixedly installed on the outside of the piston plate 29. A slot 31 is opened on the outer surface of the insert rod 5 corresponding to the insert rod 30.
[0031] Two sets of auxiliary components are provided and arranged symmetrically. Both sets of airbags 26 are fixedly connected to the transmission rod 11.
[0032] At the same time, the displacement of the transmission rod 11 will squeeze the airbag 26, and discharge the gas inside the airbag 26 into the piston chamber 28 through the connecting pipe. This will then push the piston plate 29, which is slidably connected inside the piston chamber 28, to extend and drive the insertion rod 30 to be inserted into the slot 31, thereby further strengthening the fixation and limiting of the insertion rod 5. In this way, the quick installation of the base 2 can be completed.
[0033] Existing solar photovoltaic (PV) panels typically require bolts for installation, necessitating pre-drilled mounting holes. This increases production costs, complicates installation, and hinders efficiency. Some installation methods use simple brackets lacking effective fixing structures, resulting in poor overall stability and susceptibility to wind or other external forces, leading to displacement or tipping and posing safety hazards. Therefore, a novel installation structure is urgently needed that is convenient, reliable, and does not compromise the integrity of the PV panel, improving installation efficiency and system stability. This solution, through a positioning mechanism, enables rapid and precise installation of the base 2 on the PV panel body 1, effectively avoiding the complex procedures of traditional bolt fixing and significantly improving installation efficiency and ease of operation. Furthermore, the added locking, reinforcing, and auxiliary components work together to enhance overall connection strength and further improve the stability and reliability of the installation, ensuring safe and stable operation of the PV panel under various environmental conditions, thereby improving the overall performance and lifespan of the photovoltaic power generation system.
[0034] Usage: When it is necessary to quickly install the base 2 on the photovoltaic panel body 1, insert the insertion rod 5 on the base 2 into the slot 6 on the prefabricated base 3, then activate the telescopic rod 10 to move the transmission rod 11 forward. The sliding rod 15 rotatably connected on the crossbar 8 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 14 on the transmission rod 11. Similarly, the sliding rod 13 rotatably connected on the crossbar 9 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 12 on the transmission rod 11. The crossbar 8 and the crossbar 9 are rotatably connected to the outer surface of the fixed column 7, forming an X-shaped structure. Therefore, under the push of the transmission rod 11, the crossbar 8 will rotate counterclockwise and the crossbar 9 will rotate clockwise. In this way, the clamping plate 16 on the crossbar 8 and the clamping plate 16 on the crossbar 9 can cooperate to clamp and fix the insertion rod 5. At the same time, the insertion rod 17 on the clamping plate 16 will be inserted into the slot 18 for further limiting. Secondly, the transmission rod 11 will carry the slide rails 19 at both ends to move, and the slide rails 19 will be inserted into the slot 20 on the insertion rod 5 for limiting and fixing. The slider 21 fixedly installed at the end of the arc rod 22 is slidably connected to the slide rail 19. The sliding groove 23 opened on the arc rod 22 is slidably connected to the limiting block 24. Therefore, the limiting block 24 will limit and guide the sliding direction of the arc rod 22. Thus, under the push of the slide rail 19, the arc rod 22 will be pushed forward and moved to the upper side of the notch 25 on the insertion rod 5 to lock and limit the insertion rod 5. At the same time, the displacement of the transmission rod 11 will squeeze the airbag 26, and discharge the gas inside the airbag 26 into the piston chamber 28 through the connecting pipe. This will then push the piston plate 29, which is slidably connected inside the piston chamber 28, to extend and drive the insertion rod 30 to be inserted into the slot 31, thereby further strengthening the fixation and limiting of the insertion rod 5. In this way, the quick installation of the base 2 can be completed.

Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and its improved concepts, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
