Description

Technical Field

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

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

[0003] Existing floating photovoltaic systems use multiple floating photovoltaic platforms. The floating photovoltaic platforms are provided with crossbeams. The crossbeams can be used to install photovoltaic brackets and can also be used to connect adjacent floating photovoltaic platforms. Currently, the crossbeams of adjacent floating photovoltaic platforms are connected in a rigid connection or hinge connection manner, resulting in insufficient freedom between the two connected crossbeams. Moreover, the water area environment has waves (especially the sea water area environment has large waves), and 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 freedom between the two connected crossbeams, it is extremely easy for the connection of the two connected crossbeams to break and for the crossbeams to deform, which extremely affects the stability of the floating photovoltaic system.

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

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a novel connecting component for floating photovoltaic platforms, which is used to connect two crossbeams and can enable the two crossbeams to cooperate movably to resist the adverse effects brought by waves.

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

[0007] A novel connecting component for floating photovoltaic platforms includes two connectors for connecting crossbeams and a connecting member connecting the two connectors; the connector is provided with a connection hole; the connecting member can rotatably pass through the connection holes of the two connectors and the connecting member is in sliding fit with the connection holes, and both ends of the connecting member are in movable stop fit with the two connectors.

[0008] The novel connecting component for floating photovoltaic platforms further includes a buffer spring, and the buffer spring is sleeved on the connecting member and is located between the two connectors.

[0009] The described novel floating PV platform connection component further includes at least one elastic pad, which is sleeved on the connecting member and located between two joints.

[0010] The number of the elastic pads is two, and the two elastic pads are respectively connected to the two joints and arranged facing each other.

[0011] One end of the connecting member forms a stop head, and a pin is inserted through the other end of the connecting member; the stop head and the pin are respectively in movable stop cooperation with the two joints.

[0012] The joint is in a "U" structure, and the joint has a main board and side boards respectively bent and connected to both sides of the main board. The main board is provided with the described connection hole; both ends of the connecting member are respectively in movable stop cooperation with the main boards of the two joints.

[0013] The side board of the joint is provided with a fixing hole.

[0014] After adopting the above scheme, the connecting member of the novel floating PV platform connection component of the present utility model can rotatably pass through the connection holes of the two joints and the connecting member is in sliding fit with the connection holes, so that the two joints can rotate around the connecting member and the two joints can move relatively. In this way, the two cross beams connected by the novel floating PV platform connection component of the present utility model can rotate around the connecting member and the two cross beams can move relatively, thereby enabling the two cross beams to be movably matched to resist the adverse effects brought by waves, and preventing the connected two cross beams from disconnecting and deforming due to the action of waves.
