Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cleaning and maintenance in a new energy photovoltaic power generation system, in particular to an enhanced converging water-guiding mud-draining clamp for a photovoltaic component. Background Art

[0002] As the global demand for renewable energy continues to grow, photovoltaic power generation, as an important component of it, has a broad market prospect. In the field of cleaning and maintenance technology in new energy photovoltaic power generation systems, the main function of photovoltaic module water guide and mud removal clamps is to effectively remove water and dust on the surface of photovoltaic modules, reduce the impact of modules being blocked, thereby improving the power generation efficiency and performance stability of photovoltaic modules, reducing cleaning and maintenance costs, and extending the service life of photovoltaic modules. At present, the existing technology mainly has deficiencies in material durability, water guide and mud removal performance, installation and maintenance.

[0003] There are many existing technologies for water-conducting and mud-draining clamp devices. For example, Chinese patent publication number: CN217769965U discloses a water-conducting and mud-draining clamp for photovoltaic modules, including a water-conducting and mud-draining clamp body, the water-conducting and mud-draining clamp body includes a modified plastic shell and a limiting bottom plate, and a support column is longitudinally arranged between the modified plastic shell and the limiting bottom plate, and a limiting rod is longitudinally slidably arranged inside the support column, and a tension spring is embedded in the middle position of the top outer surface of the limiting rod. The water-conducting and mud-draining clamp for photovoltaic modules is provided with a support column and a tension spring. The device as a whole can be stretched and adjusted by setting the tension spring and the limiting rod during use, so that the whole can also be used when the customized size deviates, so that the overall scope of application is wide, the overall versatility is strong, and photovoltaic panels of different thicknesses can be clamped and installed, and the whole is more convenient and quick during use.

[0004] It can be seen that the current water-guiding and mud-draining clamps used to fix photovoltaic modules are mainly made of plastic materials. During the 25-year service life of the photovoltaic system, they are prone to deformation, damage, and even falling off, and require regular maintenance and replacement during the operation of the power station. The water-guiding performance is relatively limited, and usually only basic water-guiding functions can be achieved. The ability to quickly drain a large amount of accumulated water is weak, which affects the power generation efficiency and safety of the photovoltaic system.

[0005] In view of this, the utility model provides an enhanced converging water-guiding mud-draining clamp for a photovoltaic module. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an enhanced confluence water guide and mud drainage clamp for photovoltaic modules. It is used to solve the problem of performance degradation of photovoltaic modules caused by water and mud accumulation in outdoor environments. The confluence water guide and mud drainage clamp adopts a unique structural design, which can effectively guide the accumulated water and mud away from the surface of the photovoltaic module to avoid the damage of the accumulated water and mud to the photovoltaic module. The confluence water guide and mud drainage clamp in the utility model integrates the functions of water guiding, mud drainage and confluence. It is made of stainless steel and has excellent weather resistance and corrosion resistance. It can maintain stable performance in long-term outdoor use. In addition, by providing a water guide groove and a confluence water guide and mud drainage port, the three-in-one confluence function is integrated, so that the accumulated water and mud on the photovoltaic module can be discharged quickly and smoothly, and it can cope with the situation of large amounts of rainwater to avoid being retained on the surface of the photovoltaic module.

[0007] The utility model is realized by the following technical solutions:

[0008] A reinforced water conduit and mud drainage clamp for photovoltaic modules, comprising a water conduit and mud drainage clamp body; wherein: a buckle portion is provided at the bottom of the water conduit and mud drainage clamp body; the water conduit and mud drainage clamp body is buckled onto the frame of the tilted photovoltaic module through the buckle portion; the buckle portion is connected with a fitting portion; the fitting portion is tightly attached to the front of the photovoltaic module; the inner side wall of the water conduit and mud drainage clamp body is provided with a fixed base tightly attached to the photovoltaic module; a water guide groove is arranged on the inner side wall of the water conduit and mud drainage clamp body; a plurality of water conduit and mud drainage ports are opened on the buckle portion; one end of the water guide groove is open; the other end of the water guide groove is connected with each of the water conduit and mud drainage ports.

[0009] As a further improvement of the technical solution of the utility model, the body of the converging water guiding and mud draining clamp is made of stainless steel.

[0010] As a further improvement of the technical solution of the utility model, the converging water diversion and mud discharge outlet is U-shaped as a whole.

[0011] As a further improvement of the technical solution of the utility model, the diameter of one end of the water guiding groove is smaller than the diameter of the other end of the water guiding groove; the water guiding groove is arranged in an eight-shaped shape on the converging water guiding and mud draining clamp body.

[0012] As a further improvement of the technical solution of the utility model, a circular transition smooth guide portion is provided at the backflow front end of the buckle portion.

[0013] As a further improvement of the technical solution of the utility model, two exhaust holes are symmetrically arranged in the middle of the converging water guiding and mud draining clamp body.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides an enhanced converging water-guiding mud-draining clamp for photovoltaic modules, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] (1) Environmental protection: Cleaning of photovoltaic modules is essential to maintaining their efficient operation. The enhanced converging water guide and mud removal clamp can significantly reduce the mud belt problem caused by water and dust accumulation, thereby reducing the number of cleaning times and the use of cleaning agents, which helps to reduce pollution to the environment.

[0016] (2) Improve energy utilization: The presence of mud belts will seriously affect the power generation efficiency of photovoltaic modules. The use of enhanced converging water diversion mud clamps can effectively solve this problem, improve the energy conversion efficiency of photovoltaic modules, and thus improve the energy utilization of the entire photovoltaic system.

[0017] (3) Power generation gain: By installing enhanced confluence water guide and mud drainage clamps, the power generation of photovoltaic modules can be significantly improved. This means that for photovoltaic power stations that generate their own electricity for their own use and connect their surplus electricity to the grid, a large amount of electricity bill expenditure can be saved each year. For photovoltaic power stations that are fully connected to the grid, the electricity bill income can be increased each year due to the increase in power generation.

[0018] (4) Reduced operation and maintenance costs: Since the number of cleaning times and the use of cleaning agents are reduced, the operation and maintenance costs are also reduced accordingly. At the same time, since the enhanced confluence water guide and mud removal clamp is made of stainless steel with high durability and stability, the frequency of replacement and maintenance is reduced, further reducing the operation and maintenance costs.

[0019] (5) The enhanced confluence water guide and mud drainage clamp is made of stainless steel and has a "three-in-one" water guide and mud drainage design, which has better drainage effect and stronger adaptability. It can effectively prevent the accumulation of water, mud and other substances, keep the photovoltaic modules clean and operate efficiently, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the photovoltaic system.

[0029] The present invention is further described and illustrated below in conjunction with specific embodiments and accompanying drawings:

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4, an enhanced confluence water guide and mud discharge clamp for photovoltaic modules, comprising a confluence water guide and mud discharge clamp body 1; wherein: a buckle portion 11 is provided at the bottom of the confluence water guide and mud discharge clamp body 1; the confluence water guide and mud discharge clamp body 1 is buckled on the frame of the tilted photovoltaic module through the buckle portion 11; the buckle portion 11 is connected with a fitting portion 12; the fitting portion 12 is tightly attached to the front of the photovoltaic module; the inner side wall of the confluence water guide and mud discharge clamp body 1 is provided with a fixed base 13 that is tightly attached to the photovoltaic module; the confluence water guide and mud discharge clamp body 1 is fixedly assembled on the photovoltaic module through the fixed base 13; a water guide groove 14 is arranged on the inner side wall of the confluence water guide and mud discharge clamp body 1; a plurality of confluence water guide and mud discharge ports 15 ("three confluences and one confluence" confluence design) are opened on the buckle portion 11; one end of the water guide groove 14 is open; the other end of the water guide groove 14 is connected with each of the confluence water guide and mud discharge ports 15. It should be noted that the confluence water-guiding and mud-draining clamp in the utility model integrates the functions of water guiding, mud drainage and confluence. By arranging the water-guiding guide groove 14 and the confluence water-guiding and mud-draining port 15, the three-in-one confluence function is integrated, so that the accumulated water and mud on the photovoltaic module can be discharged quickly and smoothly, and can cope with the situation of large amounts of rain water to avoid retention on the surface of the photovoltaic module.

[0031] Specifically, in this embodiment, the converging water guide and mud discharge clamp body 1 is made of stainless steel. It should be noted that the converging water guide and mud discharge clamp body 1 is made of stainless steel with high strength and corrosion resistance, which can ensure stability and durability in various harsh environments compared to the prior art. In terms of operation and maintenance costs, due to its high strength and toughness, once installed, the enhanced converging water guide and mud discharge clamp has relatively low maintenance frequency, which greatly reduces the operation and maintenance costs.

[0032] Specifically, in this embodiment, the converging water diversion and mud discharge port 15 is U-shaped as a whole.

[0033] Specifically, in this embodiment, the diameter of one end of the water guide groove 14 is smaller than the diameter of the other end of the water guide groove 14; the water guide groove 14 is arranged in an eight-shaped shape on the confluence water guide mud discharge clamp body 1. It should be noted that the accumulated water and mud on the photovoltaic module are collected at the confluence water guide mud discharge port 15, and combined with the "three-in-one" confluence design, the accumulated water and mud on the photovoltaic module can be quickly and smoothly discharged along the drainage groove 14 by destroying the water surface tension and using the siphon principle.

[0034] Specifically, in this embodiment, the reverse flow front end of the buckle part 11 is provided with a round transition smooth guide part 16. It should be noted that in terms of structural design, the reverse flow front end design of the enhanced converging water diversion and mud discharge clamp "three converging and one" adopts a round transition smooth design. Compared with the prior art, the reverse flow front end design has protruding sharp corners, which is easy to be accidentally injured or bumped during manual operation and installation or maintenance personnel's maintenance, posing a safety hazard. The utility model is safer and more reliable.

[0035] Specifically, in this embodiment, two exhaust holes 17 are symmetrically arranged in the middle of the converging water-guiding mud-draining clamp body 1. It should be noted that the converging water-guiding mud-draining clamp body 1 is hollowed out, and the exhaust holes 17 are conducive to air discharge.

[0036] The working principle of this utility model:

[0037] The converging water-guiding and mud-draining clamp body 1 is clamped to the lower end frame of the inclined photovoltaic module through the snap-fitting part, the fitting part 12 is tightly attached to the front side of the photovoltaic module, and the converging water-guiding and mud-draining clamp body 1 is fixed to the card interface of the photovoltaic module (the back side of the photovoltaic module) through the fixed base 13; at this time, the fitting part 12 is attached to the inclined surface of the photovoltaic module, and the accumulated water and mud on the photovoltaic module are gathered at the converging water-guiding and mud-draining port 15. Combined with the "three-in-one" converging design, the accumulated water and mud on the photovoltaic module can be quickly and smoothly discharged along the drainage groove 14 by destroying the water surface tension and utilizing the siphon principle, thereby realizing the function of rapid water guiding and mud drainage.

[0038] (1) Principle of breaking tension: Water surface tension is the tension on any boundary line along the surface caused by the imbalance of molecular attraction on the surface layer of the liquid, making the surface of the liquid like a taut film. After the converging water diversion and mud drainage clamp is installed on the photovoltaic module, the water surface tension is broken, allowing the liquid to flow smoothly.

[0039] (2) Siphon principle: refers to the phenomenon that liquid flows from high to low under the influence of height difference and atmospheric pressure. After the confluence water guide and mud drainage clamp is installed on the photovoltaic module, a guiding channel will be formed. This channel is the "pipeline" in the siphon phenomenon. The accumulated water and mud will flow along the slope of the photovoltaic module to the edge and enter the channel formed by the confluence water guide and mud drainage clamp, realizing the water guide and mud drainage function.

[0040] (3) Convergence principle: Through the "three-in-one" structural design, the multiple openings formed by the installed converging water guide and mud drainage clamps and the photovoltaic modules improve the efficiency of discharging accumulated water and mud, avoid prolonged water accumulation in the modules, and ensure the safe and stable operation of the power station.

[0041] Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides an enhanced converging water-guiding mud-draining clamp for photovoltaic modules, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0042] (1) Environmental protection: Cleaning of photovoltaic modules is essential to maintaining their efficient operation. The enhanced converging water guide and mud removal clamp can significantly reduce the mud belt problem caused by water and dust accumulation, thereby reducing the number of cleaning times and the use of cleaning agents, which helps to reduce pollution to the environment.

[0043] (2) Improve energy utilization: The presence of mud belts will seriously affect the power generation efficiency of photovoltaic modules. The use of enhanced converging water diversion mud clamps can effectively solve this problem, improve the energy conversion efficiency of photovoltaic modules, and thus improve the energy utilization of the entire photovoltaic system.

[0044] (3) Power generation gain: By installing enhanced confluence water guide and mud drainage clamps, the power generation of photovoltaic modules can be significantly improved. This means that for photovoltaic power stations that generate their own electricity for their own use and connect their surplus electricity to the grid, a large amount of electricity bill expenditure can be saved each year. For photovoltaic power stations that are fully connected to the grid, the electricity bill income can be increased each year due to the increase in power generation.

[0045] (4) Reduced operation and maintenance costs: Since the number of cleaning times and the use of cleaning agents are reduced, the operation and maintenance costs are also reduced accordingly. At the same time, since the enhanced confluence water guide and mud removal clamp is made of stainless steel with high durability and stability, the frequency of replacement and maintenance is reduced, further reducing the operation and maintenance costs.

[0046] (5) The enhanced confluence water guide and mud drainage clamp is made of stainless steel and has a "three-in-one" water guide and mud drainage design, which has better drainage effect and stronger adaptability. It can effectively prevent the accumulation of water, mud and other substances, keep the photovoltaic modules clean and operate efficiently, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the photovoltaic system.

[0047] The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present invention are introduced in detail above. Specific examples are used in this article to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the embodiments of the present invention. The description of the above embodiments is only applicable to help understand the principles of the embodiments of the present invention. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the embodiments of the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scopes. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.
