[0002] Photovoltaic panel assemblies can be made into different shapes, and the assemblies can be connected to generate more electricity. In recent years, photovoltaic panel assemblies have been used on rooftops, building surfaces, parks and roadsides, and are even used as part of windows, skylights or shading devices. Photovoltaic panel assemblies are usually installed and fixed with photovoltaic brackets during use to meet the needs of users.

[0003] After searching, Chinese patent CN218788737U was found and announced a photovoltaic bracket with rainwater collection function. The photovoltaic panel is inserted into the first slide rail and placed on the limit bottom plate. There is a gap between the photovoltaic panel and the support plate, and a water collection tank is set at the bottom of the support plate. When it rains, rainwater can fall from the inside of the photovoltaic bracket to the water collection tank along the support plate, or fall from the outside of the photovoltaic bracket to the water collection tank along the photovoltaic panel, and then flow into the rainwater channel, and finally flow into the rainwater collection box to realize rainwater collection. It can be seen that this patent realizes the collection of rainwater confluence, as a photovoltaic The original intention of collecting rainwater on the board is to monitor the distribution effect of photovoltaic panels on precipitation in the forest, or to monitor the amount of rainwater intercepted by photovoltaic panels under different rainfall intensities. The rainwater intercepted by photovoltaic panels is collected in buckets. If only one bucket is used to collect the rainwater, the bucket will be full soon. Therefore, the bucket needs to be taken out and replaced. During this process, the water in the water pipe is still flowing out, causing the collected rainwater to flow to the ground, resulting in inaccurate visual observation of the amount of rainwater intercepted by photovoltaic panels. Therefore, it is necessary to divert the water in the water pipe, so a rainwater collection device for a photovoltaic panel support frame is proposed. Utility Model Content
