Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of support adjustment structures, in particular to a support adjustment structure for a solar water heater. Background Art
[0002] The solar water heater bracket is an important component for installing a solar water heater. Its main function is to fix the solar water heater in a suitable position and make full use of the heat of solar energy to heat water. The solar water heater bracket is usually made of metal materials, such as stainless steel, aluminum, etc., which has the advantages of corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, and high strength. The design of the solar water heater bracket needs to consider many factors, such as solar radiation intensity, topography, climatic conditions, etc. Generally speaking, the height of the bracket should be determined according to local solar radiation intensity, topography, and building height. In addition, the installation angle of the bracket is also very important, which will affect the absorption of solar energy and the transfer of heat energy. Generally speaking, the installation angle of the solar water heater bracket should be inclined to better absorb solar energy.
[0003] Due to the rotation of seasons, the irradiation angle of sunlight will change, and the angle of sunlight irradiating the vacuum tube will also change. The fixed sunlight receiving direction will lead to a low heating rate of the solar water heater, and the existing solar water heater bracket cannot adapt to water heaters with different vacuum tube lengths. When it rains, the rain will quickly take away the heat of the water heater, and the existing water heater has no rain protection measures. Therefore, a solar water heater bracket adjustment structure is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0012] 1. In the utility model, the telescopic rod, fixed rod, universal ball and reflector are arranged to make the solar water heater receive sunlight in a wider range. When the solar water heater faces away from the sunlight, the telescopic rod is started, and the telescopic rod is extended or retracted to adjust the height of the reflector. The reflector is adjusted, and the universal ball rotates to adjust the angle of the reflector reflecting sunlight. This design can improve the heating rate of the solar water heater;
[0013] 2.

[0014] 3. In the utility model, the solar water heater can prevent heat loss on rainy days by means of the installation plate, fixed column, rotating shaft, rain shield, rope release device, thin rope and threading ring. When it rains, the rope release device is started to release the thin rope.
