[0037] The corner code 300 can be sawed into the required width. The protruding height of each interference anchor point of the short frame 100 and the long frame 200 is matched with the tooth groove structure of the corresponding position of the corner code 300.

[0038] Insert the corner code 300 into both ends of the short frame 100. After completing the above steps, send it to the frame assembly manufacturer. First, glue the short frame 100 and the long frame 200 into the receiving grooves.

[0042] The two ends of the short frame are cut to 45 (0, -0.3) degrees to the side, and the first reinforcing ribs 105 at both ends of the short frame are shortened with a special punching knife, and the shortening distance is 0.5-1mm greater than the dimension of the support wall Ⅰ302 minus the depth of the insertion port Ⅰ301. A special punching tool is used to punch the first reinforcing ribs 105 at both ends of the short frame to form overlapping anchor points, and each anchor point is protrudingly formed at a predetermined height of the first reinforcing rib 105.

[0043] The two ends of the long frame 200 are cut to 45 (0, -0.3) degrees to the side, and the second reinforcing ribs 205 at the two ends of the short frame are shortened by a special punching knife, and the shortening distance is 0.5-1mm larger than the dimension of the support wall II 304 minus the depth of the insertion port II 308. The second reinforcing ribs 205 at the two ends of the long frame 200 are punched with a special punching tool to form overlapping anchor points, and each anchor point is protrudingly formed at a predetermined height of the first reinforcing rib.

[0044] The width of the insertion opening II 308 of the corner code 300 is 0.2-0.5 mm greater than the thickness of the short frame reinforcement rib or the thickness of the long frame 200 reinforcement rib at the corresponding matching position.

[0045] The corner code 300 is inserted into the first reinforcing ribs 105 at both ends of the short frame 100 .

[0046] Glue the short-size receiving grooves 104 of the two short frames 100 and the long-size overflowing grooves 203 of the two long frames 200, insert the photovoltaic panels into the receiving grooves, and insert the second reinforcing ribs 205 at both ends of the long frames 200 into the corner brackets 300 at both ends of the two short frames. The whole assembly process is now completed.
