Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a multi-layer offshore photovoltaic support structure. Background Art

[0002] The construction cost of offshore wind power is relatively high, requiring a large amount of capital, manpower and material resources, including wind turbines, transmission lines, foundation laying and other links; in addition, since offshore wind farms are generally built in deep sea areas with larger waves, the transportation and infrastructure costs are higher. Offshore wind power requires frequent maintenance and overhaul during operation, and usually requires shutdown operations.

[0003] Compared with traditional photovoltaic power stations, the construction cost of offshore photovoltaics is higher, including equipment, engineering and maintenance costs. In addition, offshore photovoltaic power stations are easily affected by sea conditions such as wind, waves and currents, and are mostly built on mudflats and offshore areas. For the construction of offshore photovoltaics in deep sea areas, related technologies such as floating offshore photovoltaics are still not mature.

[0004] At present, offshore photovoltaic support structures and photovoltaic panels are mostly spread over a large area along the horizontal space, occupying a large area of ​​sea area. For pile-based fixed offshore photovoltaic support structures, a large number of piles will be driven into the sea to support the upper structure. When the life of the photovoltaic project ends, the recovery of structural components is relatively cumbersome. In addition, due to technical and cost constraints, the current offshore photovoltaics are mostly built on tidal flats and offshore areas. For the construction of offshore photovoltaics in deep and deep sea areas, related technologies such as floating offshore photovoltaics are not yet mature. Therefore, a multi-layer offshore photovoltaic support structure is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

The placement frame assemblies are connected to photovoltaic devices.

[0009] Preferably, the fixing frame assembly includes two first transverse support rods, one first vertical support rod and two first oblique support rods; each end of the first vertical support rod is connected to a first transverse support rod, the other ends of the two first transverse support rods are connected to the outer wall of the tower, and two first oblique support rods are connected between the two first transverse support rods and the first vertical support rods.

[0010] Preferably, the rotating assembly includes a rotating shaft, and one end of the two first transverse support rods away from the tower is rotatably connected to two ends of the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is connected to the placement frame assembly.

[0011] Preferably, the placement frame assembly includes two second transverse support rods, three second vertical support rods and four second oblique support rods; two second transverse support rods and two second vertical support rods are connected to form a square frame, another second vertical support rod is connected between the two second transverse support rods, and four second oblique support rods are connected in the square frame formed by two second transverse support rods and three second vertical support rods; two second transverse support rods are connected to the rotating shaft at one end close to the tower.

The placement frame assemblies 22 are connected to photovoltaic devices, which are photovoltaic panels, etc. The fixed frame assemblies 21 and the placement frame assemblies 22 can be steel pipes, I-beams or channel steels, etc.

[0026] like Figure 4 As shown, the fixing frame assembly 21 includes two first transverse support rods 211, a first vertical support rod 212 and two first oblique support rods 213; the two ends of the first vertical support rod 212 are respectively connected to a first transverse support rod 211, the other ends of the two first transverse support rods 211 are connected to the outer wall of the tower 1, and the two first oblique support rods 213 are connected between the two first transverse support rods 211 and the first vertical support rod 212.

[0027] The first oblique support rod 213 is used to enhance stability.

[0028] like Figure 5 As shown, the rotating assembly 23 includes a rotating shaft 231, and the ends of the two first transverse support rods 211 away from the tower 1 are rotatably connected to the two ends of the rotating shaft 231, and the rotating shaft 231 is connected to the placement frame assembly 22.
