[0004] In the above scheme, silicone is used to connect the frame and the solar panel, which still has the following disadvantages: after the frame and the solar panel are connected with silicone, if the solar panel is damaged, the solar panel that is glued together with the frame and the solar panel using silicone cannot be conveniently disassembled and replaced, reducing the convenience of replacing the solar panel. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a sealed aluminum alloy frame of a photovoltaic component to solve the problem that the solar panel cannot be conveniently disassembled and replaced by gluing the frame to the solar panel using silicone, thereby reducing the convenience of replacing the solar panel.
[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose of the utility model, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: a sealed aluminum alloy frame of a photovoltaic component, including an upper frame, which is detachably arranged above the lower frame, and the bottom surface of the upper frame and the top surface of the lower frame are respectively provided with placement grooves, a pressing frame is slidably arranged inside the upper frame, and a plurality of fixed folding plates are fixed to the top surface of the upper frame, and a sleeve hole is arranged on the top surface of the fixed folding plate, and a sliding rod is slidably inserted inside the sleeve hole, the bottom end of the sliding rod is fixed to the top surface of the pressing frame, and a spring is surrounded by the surface of the sliding rod, the top end of the spring is fixed to the bottom surface of the fixed folding plate, and the other end of the spring is fixed to the top surface of the pressing frame, and an elastic frame is fixed to the bottom surface of the pressing frame.
[0007] Preferably, two drainage grooves are formed on the top surface of the upper frame, and two connection grooves are formed on the top surface of the pressing frame.
[0008] Preferably, mounting folding plates are fixed at the four corners of the upper frame and the lower frame respectively, and two fixing holes are provided on the top surface of the mounting folding plates. Fixing bolts are rotatably inserted inside the fixing holes, and the bottom ends of the fixing bolts pass through the fixing holes and are threadedly connected with nuts.
[0009] Preferably, semi-arc blocks are fixed to both sides of the upper frame, and splicing blocks are fixed to both sides of the lower frame.
[0010] Preferably, semi-arc blocks are fixed to both sides of the upper frame, and splicing blocks are fixed to both sides of the lower frame.
[0011] Preferably, a blocking disk is fixed to the top end of the sliding rod.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, a photovoltaic module sealed aluminum alloy frame adopting the above technical solution has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] 1. When installing the photovoltaic module between the upper frame and the lower frame, the staff will first place the photovoltaic module inside the placement groove, and then assemble the upper frame and the lower frame together to install the photovoltaic module. When the upper frame moves downward to assemble with the lower frame, the elastic frame will first contact the top surface of the photovoltaic module, and as the upper frame continues to move downward, it can drive the sliding rod to slide upward inside the sleeve hole and compress the spring at the same time. The compressed spring will exert a downward force on the pressing frame and the elastic frame, so that the elastic frame and the photovoltaic module are closely fitted, which increases the sealing between the photovoltaic module and the upper frame and the lower frame. The method of squeezing the elastic frame is used to increase the sealing, which increases the convenience of replacing the photovoltaic module;
[0014] Second, after the upper frame and the lower frame are assembled together, the two installation folding plates will be assembled together, and then the fixing bolts will be passed through the fixing holes and the nuts will be screwed on, so that the upper frame and the lower frame can be tightly assembled together. When the upper frame and the lower frame are tightly assembled together, the sealing frame will be squeezed and sealed inside the storage tank, thereby increasing the sealing between the upper frame and the lower frame;
[0015] 3. The semi-arc block and the assembled block will be assembled into a complete cylinder, which is convenient for installing the upper frame and the lower frame on the photovoltaic base. If there is water accumulation in the space formed by the upper frame and the photovoltaic module, the upper frame and the lower frame will be tilted with the semi-arc block as the center of the circle. The tilted upper frame will allow the internal accumulated water to be discharged through the connecting groove and the drainage groove to prevent the accumulated water from affecting the operation of the photovoltaic module.

[0023] During use, when installing the photovoltaic module between the upper frame 1 and the lower frame 2, the staff will first place the photovoltaic module inside the placement groove 3, and then assemble the upper frame 1 and the lower frame 2 together to install the photovoltaic module. When the upper frame 1 moves downward and assembles with the lower frame 2, the elastic frame 9 will first contact the top surface of the photovoltaic module, and as the upper frame 1 continues to move downward, it can drive the sliding rod 7 to slide upward inside the sleeve hole 6 and compress the spring 8 at the same time. The compressed spring 8 will exert a downward force on the pressing frame 4 and the elastic frame 9, so that the elastic frame 9 is tightly fitted with the photovoltaic module, thereby increasing the sealing between the photovoltaic module and the upper frame 1 and the lower frame 2. The sealing is increased by squeezing the elastic frame 9, which increases the convenience of replacing the photovoltaic module.

While the upper frame 1 and the lower frame 2 are tightly installed together, the sealing frame 16 will be squeezed and sealed inside the storage slot 15, thereby increasing the sealing between the upper frame 1 and the lower frame 2.

If there is water accumulation in the space formed by the upper frame 1 and the photovoltaic module, the upper frame 1 and the lower frame 2 will be tilted with the semi-arc block 17 as the center of the circle, and the upper frame 1 can be tilted. The tilted upper frame 1 will allow the accumulated water inside to be discharged through the connecting groove 11 and the drainage groove 10, thereby preventing the accumulated water from affecting the operation of the photovoltaic module.
