Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of lighting, and particularly relates to a mounting bracket for a solar panel. Background Technique
[0002] Solar energy refers to the thermal radiation energy of the sun (see the three ways of heat energy propagation), and its main manifestation is the commonly said sunlight. In modern times, it is generally used for power generation or providing energy for water heaters. Since the birth of life on earth, it has mainly survived by the thermal radiation energy provided by the sun. Since ancient times, humans have also known to dry objects with sunlight and use it as a method of making food, such as making salt and drying salted fish. In the case of the decreasing fossil fuels, solar energy has become an important part of the energy used by humans and is constantly developing. There are two ways to utilize solar energy: photothermal conversion and photoelectric conversion. Solar power generation is a new type of renewable energy. Generally speaking, solar energy on earth also includes wind energy, chemical energy, water energy, etc.
[0003] A solar panel is a device that absorbs sunlight and directly or indirectly converts solar radiation energy into electrical energy through the photovoltaic effect or the photochemical effect. The main material of most solar panels is "silicon", but due to the high production cost, it cannot be widely and commonly used in large quantities.
[0004] Compared with ordinary batteries and rechargeable batteries, solar cells are more energy-saving and environmentally friendly green products. At present, the utilization of solar energy mainly relies on solar panels. In the installation process of existing solar panels, the brackets are large in volume and inconvenient to transport, and the inclination angle of the solar panels is inconvenient to adjust, resulting in low power generation efficiency.

[0020] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0021] As Figures 1 to 8 shown, the present invention is a mounting bracket for a solar panel. The present invention mainly consists of three parts, namely a mounting plate (1), a support frame (2) and a fixing plate (3). The mounting plate (1) and the fixing plate (3) are both movably connected to both ends of the support frame (2) by means of hinge connection. Among them, a fixing block (10) is provided at the bottom of the mounting plate (1), and the support frame (2) is assembled to the mounting plate (1) by connecting with the fixing block (10). Thanks to the hinge connection method, the mounting plate (1) and the fixing plate (3) at both ends of the support frame (2) can make relative movements within a certain range relative to the support frame (2). In the present invention, it is a rotational movement, so that the present invention can Figure 1 and Figure 3 as shown, achieve storage and deployment, so as to reduce the space it occupies and greatly improve the transportation efficiency.
[0022] In order to make the whole more flat after storage, through grooves (110) and grooves (30) are respectively formed on the fixing block (10) and the fixing plate (3) for the support frame (2) to be stored therein after folding.
[0023] An active fastener (11) is designed and installed on the fixing block (10), which can cooperate with multiple rows of hanging grooves (22) formed on the support frame (2) to limit and fix the mounting plate (1). For details, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 . It should be further explained that the hanging groove (22) is designed as a closed-end through groove, and its cross-section is in the shape of an "8", that is, the bottom surface of the groove cavity is a non-planar design. Among them Figure 2 is used to be hung on the railing in cooperation with the hanging groove (31) designed at the bottom of the fixing plate (3). After adjusting the angle of the mounting plate (1) in the hanging rod state and placing the active fastener (11) into the required hanging groove (22), due to the influence of gravity, the mounting plate (1) will tilt forward and drop, thereby strengthening the position of the active fastener (11) in the hanging groove (22). Thanks to the closed-end through groove design of the hanging groove (22), it is not easy to shake or come out, and can ensure stability during use. And Figure 3This is a schematic diagram of the state when the present utility model is unfolded and placed upright on the ground. Similarly, in the hanging rod state, after adjusting the angle of the mounting plate (1) and inserting the movable fastener (11) into the required hanging groove (22), due to the influence of gravity, the mounting plate (1) will also tilt forward and fall. At this time, since the movable fastener (11) has been inserted into the hanging groove (22), it will be pressed by the mounting plate (1) and locked in the hanging groove (22). Such a design not only facilitates installation, disassembly, and angle adjustment, but also can utilize the self-weight of the mounting plate (1) of the present utility model to lock its angle without the need for other auxiliary tools.
[0024] It should be noted that to prevent the support frame (2) from tilting forward and collapsing when the present utility model is unfolded and placed upright on the ground, a sliding groove (20) is provided on the support frame (2) of the present utility model for movably assembling the limit sliding member (21). When in use, the limit sliding member (21) is slid downward into the groove (30) to fill the space reserved for the rotation and folding of the support frame (2), thereby realizing the upright reinforcement of the support frame (2) and ensuring the safety and stability during use. If it is set for a hanging rod or a hanging wall, the same operation can be carried out to ensure that the support frame (2) can be stably perpendicular to the fixed plate (3) and provide a stable angle without easy shaking.
[0025] In addition, the fixed plate (3) can be designed and formed as a flat plate or a split frame. The split frame design can better wrap and protect the solar panel installed inside, thereby improving the service life, safety, and practicability.
