Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic components, and in particular to a foldable photovoltaic component. Background Art
[0002] Since the output voltage of a single solar cell is relatively low, and the electrodes of unpackaged cells are easily detached due to environmental influences, a certain number of single cells must be sealed in series and parallel to form a solar cell module to prevent corrosion of the cell electrodes and interconnects. In addition, packaging also prevents cell breakage and facilitates outdoor installation. The quality of packaging determines the service life and reliability of the solar cell module.
[0003] At present, in order to realize the portable use of photovoltaic modules, they are usually designed to be foldable so that they can be stored and folded after use to reduce the space. When in use, they can be unfolded and supported by the support frame on them to contact the sunlight. However, the above-mentioned foldable photovoltaic modules have certain problems in actual use. Since the bracket is fixed to the back of the photovoltaic module, only the supporting angle of the photovoltaic module can be adjusted. When the ground is dirty and there is water, the photovoltaic module is easily in contact with the water source when supported, which poses certain electrical safety hazards.
[0004] Therefore, we make improvements on this and propose a foldable photovoltaic module. Utility Model Content
[0005] The utility model aims to provide a foldable photovoltaic assembly, which solves the problem that the existing foldable photovoltaic assembly cannot be supported and lifted off the ground when in use.
[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model is realized by the following technical solutions:
[0007] A foldable photovoltaic assembly, comprising two photovoltaic panels hinged to each other and a groove body formed on the back of the photovoltaic panels for slide rails to be installed, the surfaces of the two slide rails are equipped with sliders slidably along their lengths, and a support assembly is connected between the two sliders, and the slide rails are threaded with fastening bolts for fixing the support assembly;
[0008] The support assembly comprises a support shaft rotatably arranged inside two sliders through bearings and a support angle fixed to the surface of the support shaft. The bolts on the slider are provided with interference bolts for interfering and fixing the support shaft.
[0009] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the surface sliding sleeve of the support angle is provided with an extension rod, and a connecting plate is connected between the two extension rods.
[0010] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, an inner plate is fixed to the middle of the supporting angle, and the connecting plate is sleeved on the surface of the inner plate and bolted with adjusting bolts.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, a spike portion is formed at the end of the extension rod away from the support shaft, and a snap-on protrusion is fixed to the end of the inner plate.
[0012] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, a strip groove is formed on the slide rail corresponding to the fastening bolt, and the fastening bolt is slidably arranged in the strip groove and is threadedly connected to the slider.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] In the scheme of this application:
[0015] 1. Through the slide rail and support assembly, the support angle can be flipped to place the photovoltaic panel at a certain angle to the ground to receive sunlight. At the same time, the position of the slider can be moved on the slide rail and the extension rod can be extended, so that it can be inserted into the ground and the photovoltaic panel can be lifted to a certain height from the ground, so that the photovoltaic panel can be stably exposed to solar energy and effectively protected;
[0016] 2. Through the provided slide rail, the support angle can be rotated on the inner side of the slider to form the storage of the support assembly, making it convenient for the relative folding and placement of the two photovoltaic panels. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0029] like Figure 1-Figure 5As shown, the present embodiment proposes a foldable photovoltaic assembly, comprising two photovoltaic panels 1 hinged to each other and a groove body 3 formed on the back of the photovoltaic panel 1 for the slide rail 2 to be installed, the surfaces of the two slide rails 2 are slidably equipped with sliders 4 along their lengths, and a support assembly 5 is connected between the two sliders 4, and the slide rails 2 are threaded with fastening bolts 6 for fixing the support assembly 5, and the slide rails 2 are formed with strip grooves 7 corresponding to the fastening bolts 6, and the fastening bolts 6 are slidably arranged therein and threadedly connected to the sliders 4. By flipping the support 5 to form a certain angle with the photovoltaic panel 1, the photovoltaic panel 1 can be supported so that it can be used in contact with sunlight, and by rotating the fastening bolts 6, the position of the slider 4 can be adjusted in the strip groove 7 to form the position adjustment of the support assembly 5, so that it can be adaptively supported and adjusted according to different situations;
[0030] The support assembly 5 includes a support shaft 51 rotatably arranged inside the two sliders 4 through a bearing and a support angle 52 fixed to the surface of the support shaft 51. The slider 4 is provided with a bolt 53 for abutting and fixing the support shaft 51. Figure 4 As shown, the support shaft 51 can be rotated inside the two sliders 4 to adjust the support angle of the support angle 52. Specifically, the abutment bolt 53 is taken out to release the limiting effect on the support shaft 51, and then the support angle 52 is rotated to flip it to a suitable angle, and the abutment bolt 53 is rotated to make one end of it abut against the surface of the support shaft 51 to form a limiting effect on it, so that the support angle 52 after expansion forms a stable state, which is conducive to the support of the photovoltaic panel 1 to form as shown in FIG. Figure 2 Status shown;
[0031] The surface of the support angle 52 is slidably sleeved with an extension rod 54, and a connecting plate 55 is connected between the two extension rods 54. An inner plate 56 is fixed to the middle of the support angle 52, and the connecting plate 55 is sleeved on the surface of the inner plate 56 and bolted with an adjusting bolt 57. The adjusting bolt 57 is taken out to slide the connecting plate 55 on the surface of the inner plate 56, so that the connecting plate 55 drives the extension rod 54 thereon to slide on the corresponding surface of the support angle 52, so as to adjust the overall support height of the support angle 52 and the extension rod 54, and then the adjusting bolt 57 is rotated to make one end of it contact with the inner plate 56 to form a limiting effect, so that when the extension rod 54 is inserted into the ground for use, the photovoltaic panel 1 can be lifted off the ground for use, so as to avoid water and other dirt on the ground from affecting the use of the photovoltaic panel 1;
[0032] The end of the extension rod 54 away from the support shaft 51 is formed with a spike portion 58, and the end of the inner plate 56 is fixed with a buckle protrusion 59, such as Figure 3 As shown in the figure, by setting the spike portion 58, the extension rod 54 is more easily inserted into the ground to form a support for the photovoltaic panel 1, and by setting the buckle protrusion 59 as shown in the figure, Figure 1As shown, when the photovoltaic panel 1 is in the storage state, the buckle protrusion 59 abuts against the inner wall of the slot body 3 to form a support for the support assembly 5, making it more stable during the storage and placement process.
