Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of floating photovoltaics, in particular to a connecting component for a floating photovoltaic platform. Background Art

[0002] A floating photovoltaic system is a photovoltaic system that generates electricity in a water environment (such as a lake water environment or a sea water environment). It has the characteristics of high power generation, less land occupation, and easy combination with other industries. It is beneficial to optimize the energy consumption structure and has a broad commercial prospect. It has gradually become a new direction for the industry development and a hot project that energy investors compete to participate in.

[0003] Existing floating photovoltaic systems use multiple floating photovoltaic platforms. Crossbeams are provided on the floating photovoltaic platforms. The crossbeams are used for installing photovoltaic brackets and also for connecting adjacent floating photovoltaic platforms. At present, the crossbeams of adjacent floating photovoltaic platforms are connected in a rigid connection or hinged manner, resulting in insufficient degrees of freedom between the two connected crossbeams. Moreover, the water environment has waves (especially the sea water environment has large waves). The variability of the waves causes the force at the connection of the two connected crossbeams to be multi-directional. However, due to the insufficient degrees of freedom between the two connected crossbeams, it is extremely easy to cause the disconnection at the connection of the two connected crossbeams and the deformation of the crossbeams, which greatly affects the stability of the floating photovoltaic system.

[0004] In view of the existence of the above problems, it is necessary to study a connecting component for a floating photovoltaic platform, which is used to connect two crossbeams and can enable the two crossbeams to move with multiple degrees of freedom to resist the adverse effects brought by waves. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a connecting component for a floating photovoltaic platform, which is used to connect two crossbeams and can enable the two crossbeams to move with multiple degrees of freedom to resist the adverse effects brought by waves.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the solution of the utility model is:

[0007] A connecting component for a floating photovoltaic platform includes two connecting joints for connecting crossbeams and at least one flexible connecting piece connecting the two connecting joints; both ends of the flexible connecting piece are respectively matched with the two connecting joints.

[0008] The connecting joint is provided with a perforation for matching with the flexible connecting piece. The flexible connecting piece passes through the perforation of the connecting joint movably, and a limiting piece that is movably clamped with the perforation is connected to the end of the flexible connecting piece.

[0009] The limiting piece adopts a U-shaped shackle.

[0010] The number of the flexible connectors is at least two.

[0011] The flexible connectors are chains or cables.

[0012] The connection joints are fitted with elastic pads.

[0013] The elastic pads fitted to the two connection joints are arranged facing each other.

[0014] The connection joint includes a joint body which includes a crossbeam connecting body in a "U"-shaped joint and two connecting plates respectively bent and connected to both sides of the crossbeam connecting body; the two connecting plates of one of the two connection joints are respectively connected to the two connecting plates of the other connection joint through flexible connectors.

[0015] The connection joint further includes a baffle connected to one side of the joint body, and the baffles of the two connection joints are arranged facing each other.

[0016] The baffles of the two connection joints are both fitted with elastic pads.

[0017] After adopting the above scheme, the connection assembly of the floating photovoltaic platform of the present utility model includes two connection joints for connecting crossbeams and at least one flexible connector connecting the two connection joints, and both ends of the flexible connector are respectively matched with the two connection joints. Among them, since the flexible connector can be bent and deformed arbitrarily, the two connection joints can rotate and move relative to each other, and further the two crossbeams connected by the connection assembly of the floating photovoltaic platform of the present utility model can rotate and move relative to each other, so that the two connected crossbeams can resist the adverse effects brought by waves, and the two connected crossbeams will not have problems of connection disconnection and crossbeam deformation due to the action of waves.

[0032] In order to further explain the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be elaborated in detail through specific embodiments below.

[0033] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, the present invention discloses a connection assembly A for a floating photovoltaic platform, which includes two connection joints 1 for connecting crossbeams B and at least one flexible connecting piece 2 for connecting the two connection joints 1; both ends of the flexible connecting piece 2 are respectively matched with the two connection joints 1. Among them, since the flexible connecting piece 2 can be bent and deformed arbitrarily, the two connection joints 1 can rotate relative to each other and move relative to each other. Furthermore, the two crossbeams B connected by the connection assembly A of the floating photovoltaic platform of the present invention can rotate relative to each other and move relative to each other, so that the two connected crossbeams B can resist the adverse effects brought by waves, and the two connected crossbeams B will not be disconnected due to the action of waves and the problem of crossbeam B deformation.

[0034] In an embodiment of the present invention, the connection joint 1 is provided with a perforation 1121 for cooperating with the flexible connecting piece 2, the flexible connecting piece 2 movably passes through the perforation 1121 of the connection joint 1, and a positioning piece 3 that movably abuts against the perforation 1121 is connected to the end of the flexible connecting piece 2 to prevent the flexible connecting piece 2 from disengaging from the perforation 1121; the present invention is arranged in this way, so that the connection between the flexible connecting piece 2 and the connection joint 1 is movable, which helps to improve the ability of the flexible connecting piece 2 to resist waves, thereby effectively improving the service life of the flexible connecting piece 2. Among them, the positioning piece 3 can adopt a U-shaped shackle, and the U-shaped shackle has the advantage of being convenient for disassembly and assembly.

[0035] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the connecting joint 1 may include a joint body 11. The joint body 11 includes a crossbeam connecting body 111 in the shape of a "U" - shaped joint and two connecting plates 112 respectively bent and connected to both sides of the crossbeam connecting body 111. The crossbeam connecting body 111 is used to connect with the crossbeam B. The crossbeam connecting body 111 may be provided with a through - hole 1111 and can be locked with the crossbeam B through a bolt C. Two connecting plates 112 of one connecting joint 1 among the two connecting joints 1 are respectively connected to two connecting plates 112 of the other connecting joint 1 among the two connecting joints 1 through a flexible connecting member 2, and the connecting plate 112 is provided with the perforation 1121.

[0036] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the connecting joint 1 may further include a baffle 12 connected to one side of the joint body 11. The baffles 12 of the two connecting joints 1 are arranged facing each other. The baffle 12 has high strength so that the two connecting joints 1 will not be damaged when they collide with each other. In addition, elastic pads 4 may be fitted to the baffles 12 of the two connecting joints 1. The elastic pads 4 fitted to the baffles 12 of the two connecting joints 1 are arranged facing each other. The elastic pad 4 has a buffering property and can absorb the impact force when the two connecting joints 1 collide with each other, effectively ensuring that the connecting joint 1 will not be damaged.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the number of the flexible connecting members 2 of the floating - type photovoltaic platform connecting assembly A of the present utility model is at least two. In this way, when one flexible connecting member 2 has a problem, there is a spare flexible connecting member 2 to maintain the connection between the two connecting joints 1.

[0038] In an embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 1 shown, the flexible connecting member 2 is a chain, and the chain can be bent and deformed arbitrarily; it should be noted that the flexible connecting member 2 may also be a rope (preferably a steel wire rope), and the rope can also be bent and deformed arbitrarily.

[0039] The above - mentioned embodiments and drawings do not limit the product form and style of the present utility model. Any appropriate changes or modifications made by those of ordinary skill in the art shall be regarded as not departing from the patent scope of the present utility model.
