[0032] Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments according to the present application will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these exemplary embodiments can be implemented in many different forms and should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments described herein.
[0033] The split pressing block described in this embodiment can quickly connect two adjacent photovoltaic panels.
[0034] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the split connector can connect two adjacent photovoltaic frames 7, and the photovoltaic frame 7 is a C-shaped opening frame. The split connector includes: a first connecting block 1, a second connecting block 2 and a fixing member 3.
[0035] The structures and matching relationships of the first connecting block 1 , the second connecting block 2 and the fixing member 3 are described below.
[0036] The first connection block 1 includes a first mounting seat 11 and a first locking portion 12 disposed on the first mounting seat 11, wherein the first locking portion 12 is used to fix the C surface of the photovoltaic frame 7. The second connection block 2 includes a second mounting seat 21 and a second locking portion 22 disposed on the second mounting seat 21, wherein the second locking portion 22 is used to fix the C surface of another photovoltaic frame 7. The fixing member 3 is used to fix the first mounting seat 11 and the second mounting seat 21. The first mounting seat 11 has a receiving cavity 111, the second mounting seat 21 is partially located in the receiving cavity 111, and the second mounting seat 21 is partially disposed in the receiving cavity 111 by sliding.
[0037] The split connector is used to be installed on the aluminum rail 6, which is set on the top of the house by screws, and the side of the aluminum rail 6 away from the roof has a cavity 61. When the photovoltaic panel 8 needs to be installed, the C surface of one of the photovoltaic frames 7 is first fixed to the first connection block 1 through the first locking portion 12, and then the C surface of another adjacent photovoltaic frame 7 is fixed to the second connection block 2 through the second locking portion 22, and then the first mounting seat 11 is slid into the cavity 61 from one end of the cavity 61, and then the second mounting seat 21 is slid into the cavity 61 from the other end of the cavity 61. At this time, the first mounting seat 11 and the second mounting seat 21 are both located in the cavity 61 until the second mounting seat 21 partially slides into the accommodating cavity 111 of the first mounting seat 11, and then the second mounting seat 21 is slid along the aluminum rail 6 until the second mounting seat 21 partially slides into the accommodating cavity 111 of the first mounting seat 11, and finally the first mounting seat 11 and the second mounting seat 21 are fixed to the aluminum rail 6 by the fixing member 3. It should be noted that the first mounting seat 11 can be a solid structure, or a hollow structure or a cavity structure. In the embodiment of the present application, the first mounting seat 11 and the second mounting seat 21 have the same structure, and the width of the second mounting seat 21 is smaller than the width of the first mounting seat 11, so that the second mounting seat 21 can be located in the accommodating cavity 111. The bottom of the first mounting seat 11 has a first assembly surface 113, and the bottom of the second mounting seat 21 has a second assembly surface 212. When the second mounting seat 21 is located in the accommodating cavity 111 of the first mounting seat 11, the first assembly surface 113 and the second assembly surface 212 fit together, and then the first mounting seat 11 and the second mounting seat 21 are fixed to the aluminum rail 6 by the fixing member 3. Since the first assembly surface 113 and the second assembly surface 212 fit together, there is no need to adjust the position of the first mounting seat 11 and the second mounting seat 21, so that the fixing of two adjacent photovoltaic frames 7 is faster and more stable.
[0038] When the first mounting seat 11 and the second mounting seat 21 are both located in the cavity 61, the C surfaces of two adjacent photovoltaic frames 7 abut against the top of the aluminum rail 6, which can assist the first mounting seat 11 and the second mounting seat 21 to be more stably installed or slide on the aluminum rail 6, further reducing the tilt of the first mounting seat 11 and the second mounting seat 21.
[0039] In this embodiment, the embodiment of the present application designs the connector as a split structure. During the installation of the photovoltaic frame 7, the first locking portion 12 can quickly fix the C surface of the photovoltaic frame 7, and then the second locking portion 22 quickly fixes the C surface of another adjacent photovoltaic frame 7, and then the second mounting seat 21 is slid and aligned in the first mounting seat 11, and finally connected through the fixing member 3. In this way, two adjacent photovoltaic frames 7 can be quickly connected, and the structure is simple and reliable, and the disassembly and assembly are fast, which improves the disassembly and assembly efficiency; in addition, since the first mounting seat 11 and the second mounting seat 21 are hidden in the aluminum rail 6 cavity 61 between two adjacent photovoltaic panels 8, the overall aesthetics is higher.
[0040] In an optional embodiment, if Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the first mounting seat 11 has a first mounting hole 112 that penetrates therethrough, and the second mounting seat 21 has a second mounting hole 211 that penetrates therethrough; in the installed state, the first mounting hole 112 and the second mounting hole 211 are coaxial, and the fixing member 3 is passed through the first mounting hole 112 and the second mounting hole 211; in the embodiment of the present application, the first mounting hole 112 and the second mounting hole 211 are both round holes.
[0041] In this embodiment, after the first connecting block 1 and the second connecting block 2 have been fixed to the corresponding photovoltaic frame 7, the first mounting seat 11 is first slid into the cavity 61 of the aluminum rail 6, and then the second mounting seat 21 is slid into the aluminum rail 6 and continues to slide until the second mounting seat 21 slides into the accommodating cavity 111 of the first mounting seat 11 and the first mounting hole 112 is aligned with the second mounting hole 211, and then the fixing member 3 is used to pass through the first mounting hole 112 and the second mounting hole 211 to connect with the aluminum rail 6, and the first mounting seat 11 and the second mounting seat 21 are fixed on the aluminum rail 6. It can be seen that when fixing two adjacent photovoltaic panels 8, there is no need to align and install them by manual visual inspection. It is only necessary to fix the photovoltaic frame 7, align the first mounting hole 112 with the second mounting hole 211, and then insert the fixing member 3 to complete the installation, which greatly reduces the installation steps and installation difficulty, and effectively improves the installation efficiency and installation accuracy.
[0042] In an optional embodiment, if Figures 1 to 4As shown, the fixing member 3 can be a fixing screw, and the first mounting hole 112 and the second mounting hole 211 are drilled holes with internal threads, and the fixing member 3 is threadedly connected to the first mounting hole 112 and the second mounting hole 211. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, when the fixing member 3 is a fixing screw, a hot melt drilling technology can be used so that the first mounting hole 112 and the second mounting hole 211 are drilled holes with internal threads, and the cavity 61 of the aluminum rail 6 also has a fixed drilled hole with internal threads (not shown in the figure). The first mounting seat 11 is also integrally formed with a positioning portion 114 on one side away from the accommodating cavity 111, and the positioning portion 114 has a through positioning hole 1141, and the positioning hole 1141 is coaxially arranged with the first mounting hole 112. When the first mounting seat 11 is installed on the aluminum rail 6, the positioning portion 114 is pre-inserted into the fixed drilled hole of the aluminum rail 6, which has a pre-positioning effect and further improves the installation efficiency. Furthermore, when the first mounting hole 112 , the second mounting hole 211 and the fixing drill hole are coaxial, the fixing screws are threadedly connected with the second mounting hole 211 , the first mounting hole 112 , the positioning hole 1141 and the fixing drill hole in sequence to fix the first mounting seat 11 and the second mounting seat 21 on the aluminum rail 6 .
[0043] In an optional embodiment, if Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the split connector also includes a pressing plate 4, which has a connecting hole (not shown in the figure); in the installed state, the connecting hole, the first mounting hole 112 and the second mounting hole 211 are coaxial, and one end of the fixing member 3 is inserted into the first mounting hole 112 and the second mounting hole 211 through the connecting hole. The pressing plate 4 is located between the first locking portion 12 and the second locking portion 22, and the pressing plate 4 and the two adjacent photovoltaic frames 7 can be spaced apart.
[0044] In this embodiment, the pressing plate 4 is spaced apart from two adjacent photovoltaic frames 7, which is equivalent to having a left-right adjustable space between the pressing plate 4 and the photovoltaic frames 7 on both sides. When the photovoltaic frames 7 are slightly deformed, the connecting hole, the first mounting hole 112 and the second mounting hole 211 can still be made coaxial by adjusting the pressing plate 4 left-right, and the use is not affected. However, if the two sides of the pressing plate 4 are in contact with the two adjacent photovoltaic frames 7, the connecting hole, the first mounting hole 112, the second mounting hole 211 and the fixed drilled hole cannot be coaxial. The pressing plate 4 has no pre-adjusted space and cannot be installed, which affects the service life of the split connector.
[0045] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, the first locking portion 12 includes a first locking block 121 and a first locking member 122, the first locking block 121 is arranged on the first mounting seat 11, a first limiting groove 13 is formed between the first locking block 121 and the first mounting seat 11, the first limiting groove 13 has an accessible first opening end, the first locking block 121 has a penetrating first accommodating hole 1211, the first locking member 122 is arranged in the accommodating hole, and is used to fix the C surface of the photovoltaic frame 7 in the first limiting groove 13; the second locking portion 22 includes It includes a second locking block 221 and a second locking member 222, the second locking block 221 is arranged on the second mounting seat 21, a second limiting groove 23 is formed between the second locking block 221 and the second mounting seat 21, the second limiting groove 23 has an accessible second opening end, the second locking block 221 has a penetrating second accommodating hole 2211, and the second locking member 222 is arranged in the accommodating hole for fixing the C surface of the photovoltaic frame 7 in the second limiting groove 23; wherein the first opening end and the second opening end are opened opposite to each other.
[0046] In this embodiment, the C surface of the photovoltaic frame 7 is inserted into the first limiting groove 13 and is pressed and fixed by the first locking member 122; the C surface of another adjacent photovoltaic frame 7 is inserted into the second limiting groove 23 and is pressed and fixed by the second locking member 222. In this way, the C surfaces of two adjacent photovoltaic frames 7 can be quickly fixed.
[0047] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 2 , 7 As shown in Figure 8, the first locking member 122 includes a first elastic surface 123, one end of which is arranged in the first accommodating hole 1211, and the other end is bent diagonally toward the direction close to the first mounting seat 11, so as to abut against the C-surface of the photovoltaic frame 7; the second locking member 222 includes a second elastic surface 223, one end of which is arranged in the second accommodating hole 2211, and the other end is bent diagonally toward the direction close to the second mounting seat 21, so as to abut against the C-surface of another photovoltaic frame 7; wherein, the ends of the first elastic surface 123 and the second elastic surface 223 are both provided with a clamping portion 5 for fixing the C-surface of the photovoltaic frame 7; during the installation process of the photovoltaic frame 7, the first elastic surface 123 and the second elastic surface 223 are both deformed by force to give way to the C-surface of the photovoltaic frame 7.
[0048] In this embodiment, the first elastic surface 123 and the second elastic surface 223 are both elastic so as to make way for the C surface of the photovoltaic frame 7 during installation, and then the clamping part 5 fixes the C surface of the photovoltaic frame 7 through elastic rebound. The structural design is simple, the installation is convenient and fast, the installation efficiency is high, and no manual fixation is required.
[0049] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 2 , 6As shown in Figures 7 and 8, the pressing portion 5 is at least two sharp claws separated by grooves or depressions.
[0050] In this embodiment, the number of sharp claws separated by grooves or depressions is at least two, and the specific number is not limited. In this embodiment, two sharp claws separated by grooves or depressions are used. The sharp claws of the first locking portion 12 are located in the first limiting groove 13, and the sharp claws of the second locking portion 22 are located in the second limiting groove 23. When fixing the C surface of the photovoltaic frame 7, the sharp claws can penetrate into the upper surface of the C surface of the photovoltaic frame 7, and the C surface of the photovoltaic frame 7 can be fixed to the connector more stably.
[0051] In an optional embodiment, the fixing member 3 may be a latch structure, and the fixing member 3 is inserted into the first mounting hole 112 and the second mounting hole 211 to fix the first mounting seat 11 and the second mounting seat 21 .

[0054] In this embodiment, during the installation of the C-surface of the photovoltaic frame 7, the hinged structure can make the C-surface of the photovoltaic frame 7 easily installed in the first limiting groove 13 or the second limiting groove 23, and then the elastic force of the torsion spring enables the clamping part 5 to fix the C-surface of the photovoltaic frame 7.
