Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of photovoltaic panel installation, in particular to a positioning structure used for photovoltaic panel installation. Background Art
[0002] Photovoltaic panels are a type of power generation device that generates direct current when exposed to sunlight. They are composed of thin solid photovoltaic cells made almost entirely of semiconductor materials (such as silicon). Photovoltaic panels have the advantages of inexhaustible energy, convenient energy access, simple energy conversion process, stable and reliable energy conversion process, no need for cooling, and easy installation. In order to facilitate the generation and use of photovoltaic panels, photovoltaic panels are often installed on roofs to improve energy conversion efficiency.
[0003] The Chinese patent with the announcement number CN219509014U discloses a roof photovoltaic panel, which includes a support frame placed on the roof, multiple groups of photovoltaic panels placed above the support frame, and several connecting plates placed on the edge of the roof. The photovoltaic panels and the connecting plates are connected by connecting pieces and the support frame. Each group of photovoltaic panels is parallel to the ridge direction. Multiple groups of photovoltaic panels are staggered and spliced along the direction perpendicular to the ridge and spread all over the roof. The photovoltaic panels of two adjacent groups of photovoltaic panels close to the ridge are placed above the photovoltaic panels far from the ridge and partially overlap. This application has the effect of reducing the construction cost of roof photovoltaic panels while allowing the roof photovoltaic panels to work normally.
[0004] With respect to the above-mentioned related technologies, in the prior art, two opposite corners of the photovoltaic panel are embedded in the groove of the blocking block, and the other two corners are connected by connecting bolts to achieve a scaly distribution of the photovoltaic panel. However, the photovoltaic panel is a power generation equipment after all, and there is a possibility of failure. If one of the photovoltaic panels fails and cannot generate electricity normally, it needs to be dismantled for maintenance. The corners of the photovoltaic panel in the prior art are restricted by the blocking blocks and cannot be pulled out normally, resulting in the staff being unable to dismantle and maintain the damaged photovoltaic panel. The other photovoltaic panels need to be dismantled piece by piece from the initial end position. This increases the disassembly time of the photovoltaic panel and reduces the maintenance efficiency of the photovoltaic panel. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to improve the maintenance efficiency of photovoltaic panels, the present application provides a positioning structure for photovoltaic panel installation.
[0006] The present application provides a positioning structure for photovoltaic panel installation using the following technical solutions:
[0007] A positioning structure for photovoltaic panel installation, comprising an installation column installed on the purlin of a house. The installation column includes a fixed block and a connecting block. The connecting block is detachably connected to the fixed block. A positioning member for restricting a corner of the photovoltaic panel is provided on the connecting block. Two first positioning grooves for positioning a corner of the photovoltaic panel are provided between the fixed block and the connecting block. The two first positioning grooves are arranged oppositely. A second positioning groove for positioning a corner of the photovoltaic panel is formed on the fixed block. When installing the photovoltaic panel, a corner of a photovoltaic panel is connected to the positioning member, a corner of a photovoltaic panel is positioned in the first positioning groove, and a corner of a photovoltaic panel is positioned between the second positioning groove and the connecting block.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, during installation, first insert a corner of a photovoltaic panel into the second positioning groove, then detachably connect the connecting block to the fixed block and press the photovoltaic panel, then place a corner of a photovoltaic panel into the first positioning groove, and finally connect a corner of a photovoltaic panel to the positioning member. By analogy, fix the corners of each photovoltaic panel to achieve the scale-like distributed installation of the photovoltaic panels. During maintenance, the staff only needs to remove the connecting blocks at the four corners of the damaged photovoltaic panel, and then the damaged photovoltaic panel can be pulled out along the direction of the second positioning groove. When reinstalling, it only needs to restore the connecting blocks at the four corners of the photovoltaic panel. Compared with the prior art, the loading and unloading process of the photovoltaic panel is convenient and fast, without the need to remove other photovoltaic panels, shortening the disassembly time of the photovoltaic panel, and there is no need to perform other operations such as hole processing on the photovoltaic panel in advance, shortening the processing cycle of the photovoltaic panel and improving the maintenance efficiency of the photovoltaic panel.
[0009] Optionally, the positioning member is a positioning block, and a limiting groove is formed on the positioning member. During installation, a corner of a photovoltaic panel is inserted and fitted into the limiting groove.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the staff completes the positioning of a corner of the photovoltaic panel by using the limiting groove, and the installation process is fast and convenient, improving the installation efficiency of the photovoltaic panel.
[0011] Optionally, a gap groove is formed at the middle position of the positioning member.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting groove restricts a corner of the photovoltaic panel. However, since the limiting groove needs to be bent and fitted to the corner of the photovoltaic panel, there is a possibility of water accumulation in the limiting groove during the rainy season, affecting the power generation of the photovoltaic panel. By setting the gap groove, the positioning member is separated into two independent individuals. In this way, not only the effect of restricting a corner of the photovoltaic panel is retained, but also the possibility of water accumulation in the limiting groove is reduced, ensuring the normal operation of the photovoltaic panel.
[0013] Optionally, a locking bolt is inserted between the fixed block and the connecting block. The locking bolt is in threaded cooperation with the fixed block. The locking bolt is an internal hexagonal bolt. A countersunk head hole is formed in the connecting block. During installation, the locking bolt is located in the countersunk head hole.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when installing the connecting block, the worker rotates the locking bolt to press the connecting block against the fixed block. The installation process is simple and fast, improving the loading and unloading efficiency of the connecting block.
[0015] Optionally, the cross-section of the fixed block is elliptical, and the longer end of the fixed block is aligned with the first positioning groove.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, if the fixed block is circular or rectangular, the bottom wall area of the first positioning groove is small, resulting in a small supporting area at a corner of the photovoltaic panel, which is likely to cause unstable installation of the photovoltaic panel. The fixed block is elliptical to increase the area of the bottom wall of the first positioning groove, enlarge the supporting area at a corner of the photovoltaic panel, and make the installation of the photovoltaic panel more stable.
[0017] Optionally, an installation edge is connected to the bottom end of the fixed block. A waist-shaped arc groove is formed at the position of the installation edge corresponding to the longer end of the fixed block. An installation bolt is inserted into the waist-shaped arc groove. An installation nut is in threaded cooperation with the installation bolt. During installation, the installation bolt passes through the waist-shaped arc groove and the purlin.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when installing the fixed block, the worker places the fixed block on the purlin, passes the installation bolt through the waist-shaped arc groove and the purlin, and finally rotates the installation nut to press against the purlin, realizing the installation of the fixed block.
[0019] Optionally, a rectangular block is connected to the bottom end of the fixed block. A plug-in slot matching the shape of the rectangular block is formed in the purlin at the position corresponding to the rectangular block. During installation of the fixed block, the rectangular block is inserted and fitted into the plug-in slot.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, when installing the fixed block, the installation angle of the fixed block determines the installation positions of the first positioning groove and the second positioning groove, and also determines the assembly accuracy of the photovoltaic panel. The worker uses the cooperation of the rectangular block and the plug-in slot in advance to limit the installation angle of the fixed block, enabling several photovoltaic panels to be installed along a specific direction, ensuring that other surrounding photovoltaic panels can be smoothly docked during installation, improving the assembly accuracy of the photovoltaic panel, and providing convenience for the installation of the photovoltaic panel.
[0021] Optionally, a sealing strip is installed on the side of the photovoltaic panel. During installation, the top wall of the sealing strip abuts against the upper photovoltaic panel.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the photovoltaic panel is installed by means of the cooperation between the fixing block and the connecting block. However, there is a gap between adjacent photovoltaic panels, and during the rainy season, there is a possibility that rainwater seeps into the house through the gap. The staff wraps the side edges of the photovoltaic panel with a sealing strip, which not only improves the sealing performance between two adjacent photovoltaic panels, but also uses the sealing strip to support the photovoltaic panel above, further improving the installation stability of the photovoltaic panel.
[0023] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0024] 1. During installation, first insert a corner of a photovoltaic panel into the second positioning groove, then detachably connect the connecting block to the fixing block and press the photovoltaic panel, then place a corner of a photovoltaic panel into the first positioning groove, and finally connect a corner of a photovoltaic panel to the positioning member. By analogy, the corners of each photovoltaic panel are fixed, realizing the installation of the photovoltaic panels in a scale-like distribution. During maintenance, the staff only needs to remove the connecting blocks at the four corners of the damaged photovoltaic panel, and then the damaged photovoltaic panel can be pulled out along the direction of the second positioning groove. When reinstalling, it only needs to restore the connecting blocks at the four corners of the photovoltaic panel. Compared with the prior art, the loading and unloading process of the photovoltaic panel is convenient and fast, without the need to remove other photovoltaic panels, shortening the disassembly time of the photovoltaic panel, and there is no need to perform other operations such as hole processing on the photovoltaic panel in advance, shortening the processing cycle of the photovoltaic panel and improving the maintenance efficiency of the photovoltaic panel.
