Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field related to photovoltaics, and particularly relates to a photovoltaic module installation and adjustment device. Background Art

[0002] In the context of the increasingly severe global energy crisis and environmental pollution today, solar energy, as a clean and renewable energy source, has received extensive attention and application. Photovoltaic power generation technology, as an important means of solar energy utilization, its core lies in converting sunlight into electrical energy through photovoltaic panels. However, the power generation efficiency of photovoltaic panels is affected by various factors, and the most crucial among them are the angle and azimuth between the photovoltaic panels and sunlight. In order to maximize the power generation efficiency of photovoltaic panels, it is necessary to precisely adjust the angle and azimuth of the photovoltaic panels so that they are always in the best state of receiving sunlight.

[0003] Traditional photovoltaic panel installations usually adopt fixed bracket structures and cannot be automatically adjusted according to the movement of the sun, resulting in the photovoltaic panels being unable to receive sunlight at the best angle for most of the day, thereby reducing the power generation efficiency. In addition, fixed installations also have the problem of inconvenient seasonal adjustment and are difficult to adapt to the changes in the sun's altitude in different seasons.

[0004] To overcome these problems, some automatic tracking photovoltaic panel installation systems have emerged on the market, which can achieve automatic adjustment of the angle and azimuth of photovoltaic panels through mechanical or electronic control systems. However, these systems often have complex structures, high costs, and difficult maintenance, which are not conducive to large-scale popularization and application.

[0005] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, this patent proposes a new type of photovoltaic module installation and adjustment device, aiming to achieve precise adjustment of the angle and azimuth of photovoltaic panels through a simple and reliable mechanical structure, and improve the photovoltaic power generation efficiency. The device includes key components such as a base, a support column, an orientation adjustment mechanism, a rotating base, a photovoltaic panel, a limiting sleeve, a support ring, a support ladder rod, an angle adjustment slide rail, etc. Through the coordinated operation of these components, multi-degree-of-freedom adjustment of the photovoltaic panel is achieved, enabling it to automatically adjust to the best angle and azimuth according to the position of the sun, thereby significantly improving the overall performance of the photovoltaic power generation system.

[0006] The innovation of this patent lies in the adoption of advanced technologies such as a spiral angle adjustment slide rail, a double-layer adjustment structure, a sliding connection mechanism, a rolling support design, and a safety locking function. It not only improves the flexibility and accuracy of photovoltaic panel adjustment, but also simplifies the system structure, reduces costs, enhances the stability and durability of the system, and provides a new solution for the development of photovoltaic power generation technology.

[0024] 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 of 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.

[0025] The present utility model provides a photovoltaic module installation and adjustment device as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , which includes a base 1. A support column 2 is fixedly connected to the center of the upper end of the base 1. The support column 2 is used to connect the base 1 and the orientation adjustment mechanism 3 and support the orientation adjustment mechanism 3. The upper end of the support column 2 is provided with an orientation adjustment mechanism 3 for adjusting the angular orientation of the turntable 4 and the photovoltaic panel 5. The upper end of the orientation adjustment mechanism 3 is rotatably connected to a photovoltaic panel 5 through a turntable 4. The turntable 4 is used for adjusting the elevation angle of the photovoltaic panel 5. An outer sleeve of the support column 2 is sleeved with a limit sleeve 6 for adjusting and fixing the position of the angle adjustment slide rail 9. The outside of the limit sleeve 6 is fixedly connected to a support ring 7 through a plurality of connecting rods. The upper end of the support ring 7 is fixedly connected to a plurality of support ladder rods 8 and an angle adjustment slide rail 9. The support ring 7 and the support ladder rods 8 are used for connecting and supporting the limit sleeve 6 and the angle adjustment slide rail 9. The lower side of the center of the front end of the orientation adjustment mechanism 3 is fixedly connected to a limit rod 10, which restricts the angle adjustment support sleeve rod 11 to be located at the front side of the center of the lower end of the photovoltaic panel 5 and always keeps it in a vertical state. The angle adjustment support sleeve rod 11 penetrates through the limit rod 10 vertically up and down, and the angle adjustment support sleeve rod 11 is located between the front side of the lower end of the photovoltaic panel 5 and the angle adjustment slide rail 9, for adjusting the elevation angle of the photovoltaic panel 5 and supporting and limiting the front side of the lower end of the photovoltaic panel 5. The angle adjustment slide rail 9 is arranged in a spiral shape, and a plurality of support ladder rods 8 are fixedly connected between the support ring 7 and the angle adjustment slide rail 9, so that the angle adjustment support sleeve rod 11 can move spirally upward on the upper side of the angle adjustment slide rail 9. The inner thread of the center of the rear end of the limit sleeve 6 is connected with a fixing knob for locking the limit sleeve 6 outside the support column 2.

[0026] Preferably, the photovoltaic panel 5 can adjust its orientation through the orientation adjustment mechanism 3 so that the photovoltaic panel 5 can always face the sun, and the photovoltaic panel 5 can adjust its elevation angle through the swivel base 4 so that the outer wall of the upper end of the photovoltaic panel 5 can be perpendicular to the light. During the process of the orientation adjustment mechanism 3 rotating to adjust the orientation of the photovoltaic panel 5, since the limit rod 10 can limit the angle adjustment support sleeve rod 11 at the front side of the center of the lower end of the photovoltaic panel 5 and always keep it in a vertical state, during the rotation of the orientation adjustment mechanism 3, the angle adjustment support sleeve rod 11 can move on the upper end of the angle adjustment slide rail 9 and move upward in a spiral through the angle adjustment slide rail 9 seat, thereby adjusting the elevation angle of the photovoltaic panel 5 so that the photovoltaic panel 5 can always be perpendicular to the light, ensuring that the photovoltaic panel 5 can generate electricity with the highest efficiency. The limit sleeve 6 can adjust the height of the angle adjustment slide rail 9 by adjusting its position outside the support column 2, thereby adjusting the position between the angle adjustment slide rail 9 and the angle adjustment support sleeve rod 11, and further adjusting the initial elevation angle of the photovoltaic panel 5.

[0027] As Figures 2 - 5 shown, a angle adjustment support slide rod 12 penetrates downward inside the lower end of the angle adjustment support sleeve rod 11. The angle adjustment support slide rod 12 can cooperate with the limit sleeve 6 to adjust the initial elevation angle of the photovoltaic panel 5. A locking knob is threadedly connected inside the lower left side of the angle adjustment support sleeve rod 11, and the angle adjustment support slide rod 12 can be locked inside the angle adjustment support sleeve rod 11 through the locking knob to fix the initial elevation angle of the photovoltaic panel 5. The upper end of the angle adjustment support sleeve rod 11 is fixedly connected with an adjustment connection head 13 for connecting and position adjustment between the angle adjustment support sleeve rod 11 and the adjustment chute 14. The top of the adjustment connection head 13 is fixedly connected with a cylindrical clamping shaft. An adjustment chute 14 is provided inside the front side of the center of the lower end of the photovoltaic panel 5 for adjusting the position of the adjustment connection head 13 inside the front side of the lower end of the photovoltaic panel 5. The top of the adjustment connection head 13 can be slidably connected inside the adjustment chute 14 through the clamping shaft to prevent the adjustment connection head 13 from separating from the photovoltaic panel 5. The center of the lower end of the angle adjustment support slide rod 12 is rotatably connected with a steering head 15 for connecting the angle adjustment support slide rod 12 and the angle adjustment slide rail 9. The lower end of the steering head 15 is fixedly connected with a limit roller 16 for the movement of the angle adjustment support sleeve rod 11 and the angle adjustment support slide rod 12 on the upper end of the angle adjustment slide rail 9. The limit roller 16 is composed of a middle rotating frame and two side rollers to reduce the rolling resistance. A limit rolling groove 17 is provided inside the spiral outer wall of the upper end of the angle adjustment slide rail 9, and the steering head 15 is clamped inside the limit rolling groove 17 through the limit roller 16. The limit roller 16 is rollingly connected inside the limit rolling groove 17 to limit the position of the limit roller 16 and prevent the angle adjustment support slide rod 12 and the adjustment connection head 13 from separating from the upper end of the angle adjustment slide rail 9.

[0028] Preferably, during the process of adjusting the elevation angle of the photovoltaic panel 5 by the angle-adjusting support sleeve rod 11, the direction-adjusting mechanism 3 drives the angle-adjusting support sleeve rod 11 and the photovoltaic panel 5 to rotate together through the limiting rod 10. At this time, the angle-adjusting support slide rod 12 locked inside the lower end of the angle-adjusting support sleeve rod 11 can roll on the spiral outer wall at the upper end of the angle-adjusting slide rail 9 through the steering head 15 and the limiting roller 16, and the position of the angle-adjusting support slide rod 12 is restricted by the limiting groove 17 to prevent it from separating from the angle-adjusting slide rail 9. At the same time, since the positions of the angle-adjusting support sleeve rod 11 and the angle-adjusting support slide rod 12 are locked, and the angle-adjusting support slide rod 12 moves spirally upward on the upper end seat of the angle-adjusting slide rail 9, the angle-adjusting support sleeve rod 11 and the position-adjusting connecting head 13 at its upper end move spirally upward together, thereby pushing upward the front side at the center of the lower end of the photovoltaic panel 5, so that the elevation angle of the photovoltaic panel 5 remains perpendicular to the light. Moreover, the angle-adjusting support sleeve rod 11 can adjust its position relative to the photovoltaic panel 5 through the sliding of the position-adjusting connecting head 13 inside the position-adjusting chute 14 to prevent the position of the angle-adjusting support sleeve rod 11 from being locked with the photovoltaic panel 5.

[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
