[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is hereby declared that the orientation terms such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, and outside that appear or will appear in the text of the present utility model are only based on the drawings of the present utility model, and they do not specifically limit the present utility model.
[0027] For the operation and maintenance pedal provided by the present utility model, when stepping on the pedal body 2 to perform operation and maintenance on the photovoltaic module 1, it is not necessary to step on the photovoltaic module 1, effectively avoiding the occurrence of hidden cracks or other irreversible damages to the photovoltaic module 1 due to concentrated stress, thereby improving the service life of the photovoltaic module 1.
[0028] In an embodiment of the present utility model, as Figures 1 to 5 shown, the operation and maintenance pedal is installed between two adjacent photovoltaic modules 1. The operation and maintenance pedal includes a pedal body 2. An installation gap is formed between any two adjacent photovoltaic modules 1. One side of the pedal body 2 facing the photovoltaic module 1 abuts against the photovoltaic module 1. An installation boss 21 is formed on one side of the pedal body 2 facing the photovoltaic module 1. The installation boss 21 is located in the middle of the pedal body 2. An installation gap is formed between two adjacent photovoltaic modules 1. The pedal body 2 is clamped in the installation gap through the installation boss 21.
[0029] For the operation and maintenance pedal provided by the present utility model, by clamping the installation boss 21 of the pedal body 2 in the installation gap between two adjacent photovoltaic modules 1 and abutting one side of the pedal body 2 facing the photovoltaic module 1 against the photovoltaic module 1, the pedal body 2 is installed between two adjacent photovoltaic modules 1. Furthermore, when stepping on the pedal body 2 to perform operation and maintenance on the photovoltaic module 1, the external force applied by the operator to the pedal body 2 can be dispersed into the photovoltaic modules 1 on both sides of the pedal body 2, without directly stepping on the photovoltaic module 1, effectively avoiding the occurrence of hidden cracks or other irreversible damages to the photovoltaic module 1 due to concentrated stress, thereby improving the service life of the photovoltaic module 1.
[0030] Moreover, since the mounting boss 21 is located in the middle of the pedal body 2, the external forces received by the photovoltaic modules 1 on both sides of the pedal body 2 can be made close to each other, avoiding stress concentration on one of the photovoltaic modules 1 and further preventing damage to one of the photovoltaic modules 1 due to excessive force.
[0031] It should be noted here that the photovoltaic module includes a cement support pier, a column, a main beam, a secondary beam and a photovoltaic panel. The cement support pier is used for counterweight, the column is fixed to the cement support pier through a pre-embedded part, the column is connected to the main beam by a bolt connection method, one end of the secondary beam is threadedly connected to the main beam, a pressing code is provided at the other end of the secondary beam, and the photovoltaic panel is installed on the secondary beam through the pressing code, so as to fix the photovoltaic panel to the cement support pier for the photovoltaic panel to work. The pedal body 2 is clamped between two adjacent photovoltaic panels through the mounting boss 21.
[0032] In this embodiment, to ensure that the pedal body 2 can be stably installed in the installation gap between two photovoltaic modules 1 through the mounting boss 21, the forming method of the mounting boss 21 on the pedal body 2 can adopt the following forming methods:
[0033] The first forming method is that the mounting boss 21 extends along the length direction of the pedal body 2, and the length of the mounting boss 21 is equal to the length of the pedal body 2. Furthermore, when the pedal body 2 is installed in the installation gap between two adjacent photovoltaic modules 1 through the mounting boss 21, the mounting boss 21 can provide a strong support structure so that the entire pedal body 2 can be supported, further ensuring that the photovoltaic module 1 can be evenly stressed in the area connected to the pedal body 2 and effectively avoiding stress concentration and potential damage risks.
[0034] The second forming method is as Figure 5 shown, the pedal body 2 is provided with at least two mounting bosses 21, and the at least two mounting bosses 21 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the pedal body 2. Furthermore, when connecting the pedal body 2 and two adjacent photovoltaic modules 1 through the mounting boss 21 and evenly distributing the external force received by the pedal body 2 to the two photovoltaic modules 1, the forming material of the mounting boss 21 on the pedal body 2 can be effectively reduced, thus simplifying the manufacturing process of the pedal body 2.
[0035] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, anti-slip members 23 are provided on the side of the pedal body 2 facing the photovoltaic module 1 and on the mounting boss 21 to increase the friction of the contact surface between the pedal body 2 and the photovoltaic module 1 by using the anti-slip members 23, thereby preventing relative sliding between the pedal body 2 and the photovoltaic module 1 due to external forces during the operation and maintenance process.
[0036] Specifically, a layer of anti-slip pads is attached to both the side of the pedal body 2 facing the photovoltaic module 1 and the mounting boss 21. The anti-slip pads are made of EVA material, so as to increase the friction of the contact surface while avoiding scratching the panel and frame of the photovoltaic module 1 by the pedal body 2, thereby protecting the photovoltaic module 1.
[0037] In this embodiment, the pedal body 2 is made of a load-bearing material. Preferably, the main material of the pedal body 2 is PP with fiber added, so as to ensure that the pedal body 2 can have sufficient strength and stability, and can bear a large load and external impact, thereby ensuring the safety of operation and maintenance personnel.
[0038] In this embodiment, as Figures 2 to 4 shown, the pedal body 2 is provided with a plurality of traction rings 22, and the traction rings 22 are hinged to the outer wall surface of the pedal body 2. Furthermore, when the operation and maintenance of the photovoltaic module 1 are completed, a traction rope can be connected to the traction rings 22, and the pedal body 2 can be taken out from between the two photovoltaic modules 1, avoiding additional shadow occlusion of the photovoltaic module 1 by the pedal body 2, and improving the portability of the use of the pedal body 2. At the same time, when transferring the pedal body 2, the pedal body 2 can be transferred through the traction rings 22, making the pedal body 2 easy to carry.
[0039] In another embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 6 shown, the pedal body 2 is provided with two extension plates 31. One of the extension plates 31 is movably connected to one side of the pedal body 2, and the other extension plate 31 is movably connected to the other side of the pedal body 2, and the two extension plates 31 are arranged along the length direction perpendicular to the pedal body 2, and the extension plates 31 are adapted to abut against the photovoltaic module 1.
[0040] It can be understood that by movably connecting the extension plates 31 to the pedal body 2, the extension plates 31 can be unfolded from the pedal body 2 or the extension plates 31 can be retracted into the pedal body 2, thereby reducing the space occupied by the extension plates 31 and the pedal body 2 and facilitating the carrying of the extension plates 31 and the pedal body 2. And because the two extension plates 31 are respectively arranged on both sides of the pedal body 2 along the length direction perpendicular to the pedal body 2, when the extension plates 31 are unfolded from the pedal body 2, the extension plates 31 can increase the contact surface between the pedal body 2 and the photovoltaic module 1, and the area that the operation and maintenance personnel can step on or use during the operation and maintenance work increases, thereby improving the operation efficiency of the operation and maintenance work.
[0041] Specifically, to ensure that the extension plates 31 can be unfolded from the pedal body 2 or the extension plates 31 can be retracted into the pedal body 2, the following connection method can be adopted between the pedal body 2 and the extension plates 31:
[0042] For the first connection method, chutes are provided on both sides of the pedal body 2, and sliding platforms are provided on the side of the extension plate 31 facing the pedal body 2. The extension plate 31 and the pedal body 2 are slidably connected through the sliding platforms and the chutes. Furthermore, when it is necessary to increase the usage area of the pedal body 2, the extension plate 31 can be slid out from the pedal body 2, so that the extension plate 31 is unfolded from the pedal body 2, increasing the contact surface area between the pedal body 2 and the photovoltaic module 1 for maintenance personnel to step on or use. When it is necessary to retract the extension plate 31, the extension plate 31 can be slid into the chute of the pedal body 2 to complete the storage of the extension plate 31.
[0043] For the second connection method, as Figure 6 shown, hinge hinges are provided on both sides of the pedal body 2, and the extension plate 31 is hinged to the pedal body 2 through the hinge hinge 32. Furthermore, when it is necessary to increase the usage area of the pedal body 2, the extension plate 31 can be rotated relative to the pedal body 2 to protrude the extension plate 31 from the pedal body 2, so that the extension plate 31 is unfolded from the pedal body 2, thereby increasing the contact surface area between the pedal body 2 and the photovoltaic module 1. When it is necessary to retract the extension plate 31, the extension plate 31 can be rotated relative to the pedal body 2 to turn the extension plate 31 into the pedal body 2 to complete the storage of the extension plate 31.
[0044] Among them, a support rod 33 is provided on the side surface of the pedal body 2. The support rod 33 is located between the extension plate 31 and the photovoltaic module 1. The extension plate 31 abuts against the photovoltaic module 1 through the support rod 33, and the support rod 33 is a telescopic rod.
[0045] It can be understood that when the extension plate 31 is unfolded from the pedal body 2, the support rod 33 can extend out from the side surface of the pedal body 2 to support the extension plate 31; when the extension plate 31 is retracted into the pedal body 2, the support rod 33 is retracted into the pedal body 2 to reduce the space occupied by the support rod 33 and improve the aesthetics of the pedal body 2.
[0046] When the extension plate 31 is unfolded from the pedal body 2, the extension plate 31 can be supported by the support rod 33. The support rod 33 can disperse the force on the extension plate 31 to ensure that the extension plate 31 can bear a certain weight and ensure that the extension plate 31 can maintain stability and safety during use.
[0047] In another embodiment of the present utility model, an insulating member is provided between the pedal body 2 and the photovoltaic module 1. Specifically, the insulating member can be an insulating pad laid between the pedal body 2 and the photovoltaic module 1, or an insulating coating applied to the surface of the pedal body 2, so as to utilize the insulating effect of the insulating pad or the insulating coating between the pedal body 2 and the photovoltaic module 1 to ensure the safety during the maintenance operation.
[0048] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the surface of the pedal body 2 generally needs to be stamped. To improve the safety performance of the pedal body 2 during use, as Figure 3 shown, a stamping anti-slip pattern 24 is provided on the side of the pedal body 2 facing away from the photovoltaic module 1. The stamping anti-slip pattern 24 is used to increase the roughness of the surface of the pedal body 2, thereby increasing the friction force of the contact surface between the operation and maintenance personnel and the pedal body 2, and reducing the risk of the operation and maintenance personnel.
[0049] The above is the preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the principle of the present invention, several improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements are also regarded as the protection scope of the present utility model.
