Specific embodiments

[0023] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a photovoltaic support mechanism, including a photovoltaic panel 7, further including:

[0025] A support rod 1, on which a plurality of first hoops 2 are sleeved, and two support arms 201 are fixedly connected to the first hoops 2, and a connecting column 202 is fixedly connected between the two support arms 201;

[0026] The clamping mechanism 3, the clamping mechanism 3 includes a mounting plate 4 and two L-shaped clamping plates 5. A limiting sliding groove 401 is formed on the upper surface of the mounting plate 4, and an adjusting groove 402 is rotatably installed in the limiting sliding groove 401. A limiting sliding block 501 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the L-shaped clamping plate 5. The limiting sliding block 501 is slidably matched with the limiting sliding groove 401. A connecting square hole 502 is formed in the limiting sliding block 501. Mounting grooves 503 are formed on the inner walls of both sides of the connecting square hole 502. A toothed plate 504 is slidably installed in the mounting groove 503. A slider 6 is slidably installed in the connecting square hole 502. Tooth grooves 601 are formed on both sides of the slider 6. A second threaded sleeve 602 is embedded in the slider 6. The second threaded sleeve 602 is threadedly matched with a bidirectional screw rod 403.

[0027] In this implementation scheme, through the threaded cooperation between the second threaded sleeve 602 and the bidirectional screw rod 403, rotating the bidirectional screw rod 403 can drive the slider 6 to move. The slider 6 is slidably installed inside the connecting square hole 502. The toothed plate 504 and the tooth grooves 601 cooperate with each other. The convex teeth on the toothed plate 504 are stuck inside the tooth grooves 601. At this time, the slider 6 and the limiting sliding block 501 will be connected together. Thus, the limiting sliding block 501 is driven to move by the slider 6. The movement of the limiting sliding block 501 will drive the L-shaped clamping plate 5 to move, and further make the two L-shaped clamping plates 5 approach each other, and then clamp and fix the photovoltaic panel 7. When the clamping force is too large, the convex teeth on the toothed plate 504 are triangular. After being stressed, part of the force will be decomposed into extrusion force, and the toothed plate 504 will be extruded into the mounting groove 503. At this time, when the slider 6 is stressed too much, the convex teeth on the toothed plate 504 will be extruded out of the tooth grooves 601, and the toothed plate 504 will retract into the mounting groove 503. At this time, the slider 6 can slide alone. When the other tooth grooves 601 move to the convex teeth of the toothed plate 504, the convex teeth on the toothed plate 504 will be stuck into other tooth grooves 601 again, thereby making a certain sound to remind the operator to stop rotating the bidirectional screw rod 403, and effectively avoiding the problem that the two L-shaped clamping plates 5 over-clamp the photovoltaic panel 7 and cause damage to the photovoltaic panel 7. At the same time, the device vertically connects multiple photovoltaic panels 7 to the support rod 1 and seeks space upward, so as to occupy as little land as possible, support multiple photovoltaic panels 7, and make full use of land resources.

[0028] Among them, in order to achieve the purpose of fixing the device on the support rod 1, the following technical scheme is adopted for this device: A fixed base 101 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the support rod 1. A second hoop 405 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the mounting plate 4. The second hoop 405 cooperates with the connecting column 202. A nut 404 is fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional screw rod 403.

[0029] The support rod 1 can be vertically fixed on the base through the fixed base 101. The second hoop 405 cooperates with the connecting column 202, thereby fixing the clamping mechanism 3 on the connecting column 202. The connecting column 202 is fixed to the support rod 1 through the first hoop 2 and the support arm 201, and then the whole device is fixedly connected to the support rod 1.

[0030] Among them, in order to achieve the purpose of adjusting the set clamping force, the present device is implemented by the following technical solution: A return spring 505 is fixedly connected to one side of the toothed plate 504, the other end of the return spring 505 is fixedly connected to an adjusting plate 506, first threaded sleeves 507 are embedded and installed on both sides of the limit slider 501, an adjusting screw 508 is installed with internal threads in the first threaded sleeves 507, one end of the adjusting screw 508 is rotatably connected to the adjusting plate 506, an internal angle hole 509 is opened at the other end of the adjusting screw 508, and adjusting grooves 402 are opened on both sides of the mounting plate 4.

[0031] The interference between the mounting plate 4 and the adjusting screw 508 can be avoided through the opened adjusting grooves 402. At the same time, it is convenient to insert an internal angle wrench into the internal angle hole 509, and then rotate the adjusting screw 508. The rotation of the adjusting screw 508 will drive the adjusting plate 506 to move. The movement of the adjusting plate 506 will compress or release the return spring 505, thereby adjusting the extrusion force received by the toothed plate 504, and thus adjusting the force required for the relative sliding of the slider 6 and the clamping force.

[0032] The working principle and usage process of the present utility model: When in use, the support rod 1 needs to be fixed at a suitable position, the photovoltaic panel 7 is placed between the two L-shaped clamping plates 5, and then a tool such as a wrench is used to rotate the nut 404. The nut 404 will drive the bidirectional screw 403 to rotate, thereby driving the two L-shaped clamping plates 5 to approach each other. When the L-shaped clamping plates 5 clamp and fix the photovoltaic panel 7 and the clamping force is appropriate, at this time, the slider 6 is driven by the bidirectional screw 403 to continue moving, and the toothed plate 504 will be pushed into the installation groove 503, so that the slider 6 can move relative to the limit slider 501. When the convex teeth on the toothed plate 504 are aligned with other tooth grooves 601, they will continue to be snapped into the tooth grooves 601 under the push of the return spring 505, thereby making a certain sound. At this time, the rotation of the nut 404 can be stopped, the angle of the photovoltaic panel 7 is adjusted, the second hoop 405 is fixed on the connecting column 202, and the first hoop 2 is fixed on the support rod 1 to complete the installation.

[0033] Although the embodiments of the present utility model have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present utility model. The scope of the present utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
