[0030] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a BIPV roof structure without a support, including a plurality of support bars 2 and a plurality of photovoltaic modules 5, such as Figure 2 As shown, the support bars 2 are arranged perpendicular to the purlins 1, and a plurality of support bars 2 are placed in parallel on the purlins 1. Two adjacent support bars 2 and two adjacent purlins 1 can form a rectangular support structure, such as Figure 1 As shown, the photovoltaic module 5 is fixed on a rectangular support structure composed of a support bar 2 and a purlin 1. Figure 1 Only one photovoltaic module 5 and a partial structure of eight surrounding photovoltaic modules 5 are shown.

[0032] like Figure 3 , 5 As shown, the photovoltaic assembly 5 includes a photovoltaic panel 6 and a frame fixed to the edge of the photovoltaic panel 6. The frame is rectangular as a whole. The photovoltaic panel 6 and the frame are connected by a third sealant 9. The frame includes two parallel long frames 7 and two parallel short frames 8. The width of the photovoltaic assembly 5 is smaller than the center distance between two adjacent purlins 1, so that the photovoltaic panel 6 can be placed on the purlin 1 through the long frame 7. A plurality of mounting holes are provided on the long frame 7. The long frame 7 is detachably connected to the purlin 1 by bolts passing through the mounting holes. A seal is provided between the long frames 7 of two adjacent photovoltaic assemblies 5 to seal the gap between the two adjacent photovoltaic assemblies 5.

[0033] The sealing member includes a first sealant 10, a second sealant 11 and a sealing strip 12 arranged between the first sealant 10 and the second sealant 11. The sealing effect is improved by a three-layer sealing method; the first sealant 10 is arranged on the outside of the sealing strip 12, and the top of the cross section of the first sealant 10 is a concave arc, which is convenient for drainage.

[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, the support bar 2 includes a bottom plate 13 and multiple sets of side plates, which are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the bottom plate 13, and the spacing between two adjacent sets of side plates is equal to the width of the purlin 1, so that the side plates will not interfere with the frame of the photovoltaic module 5, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 Each set of side panels includes two baffles 3, which are vertically arranged on both sides of the bottom plate 13 along the length direction, and the bottom plate 13 and the two baffles 3 form a slot 4. In this embodiment, the bottom plate 13 and the baffles 3 are an integrated structure.

[0035] like Figure 6As shown, the center distance between two adjacent support bars 2 is greater than the length of the photovoltaic module 5, so that the short frames 8 of the two adjacent photovoltaic modules 5 can be respectively clamped on both sides of the card slot 4, and a seal is also provided between the short frames 8 of the two adjacent photovoltaic modules 5, such as Figure 7 As shown, the photovoltaic module 5 is sealed on all sides by a seal. Two adjacent short frames 8 are against the inner wall of the slot 4 and pressed on the bottom of the slot 4. It can be understood that when one of the photovoltaic modules 5 moves horizontally, due to the existence of the slot 4, the adjacent photovoltaic modules 5 will play a role of limiting, thereby improving the integrity of the entire roof structure; in addition, since the short frame 8 of the photovoltaic module 5 is pressed on the bottom of the slot 4, and the bottom plate 13 of the support bar 2 has a certain thickness, when the short frame 8 of the photovoltaic module 5 is fastened to the purlin 1 by bolts, the short frame 8 of the photovoltaic module 5 will press the support bar 2 tightly against the purlin 1, thereby fixing the support bar 2.

[0036] The BIPV roof structure of this embodiment does not require the use of a bracket, and the photovoltaic components 5 can be installed only through a plurality of support bars 2. In addition, the support bars 2 do not need to be fixed separately, so the installation is convenient and the cost is low. The three-layer structure of the seal between adjacent photovoltaic components 5 improves the sealing effect and also increases the service life of the sealing strip 12.

[0037] The embodiments described above are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit them. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, a person skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments may still be modified, or some of the technical features may be replaced by equivalents. Such modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, and should all be included in the protection scope of the present application.
