For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to specific situations.

[0055] The following is a reference to Figures 1 - 25 Describe the mounting bracket 100 for the micro-inverter 200 according to an embodiment of the present application. The mounting bracket 100 is used to mount the micro-inverter 200 to the mounting position 300 to meet the assembly requirements of the micro-inverter 200.

[0056] Currently, there are many scenarios for the micro-inverter 200, such as: on the roof, on the wall, etc. In the related art, by setting an ear plate structure on the housing of the micro-inverter 200 and cooperating with the ear plate structure through a connecting component (such as: a bolt, etc.), the micro-inverter 200 is installed and fixed, resulting in a single installation method for the micro-inverter 200, and it is not convenient to adjust the position of the mounting position 300 of the micro-inverter 200. At the same time, the disassembly and assembly process of the micro-inverter 200 requires the assistance of tools, which is not conducive to the quick removal of the micro-inverter 200 during later maintenance.

[0057] Combined with Figures 1 - 25 , the mounting bracket 100 in the present application includes: a first bracket 1 and a second bracket 2.

[0058] Specifically, the first bracket 1 is provided with a first connecting portion 101 for connecting with the micro-inverter 200, and the first bracket 1 is formed with a fixing groove 102 that opens in a first direction. The second bracket 2 is provided with a second connecting portion 201 for connecting and cooperating with the mounting position 300, and the second bracket 2 is formed with a mounting groove 202 that opens in a second direction. The first bracket 1 can be inserted into and cooperated with the mounting groove 202 from the open side of the mounting groove 202 to realize the assembly of the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2.

[0059] It should be noted that the "mounting position 300" refers to: a fixed position for arranging the micro-inverter 200, which can be a certain position in a mounting structure such as a column, a wall, a crossbar, etc. The micro-inverter 200 can be installed and fixed at the mounting position 300 through the mounting bracket 100.

[0060] Refer to Figure 22 , when the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2 are installed and cooperated, a part of the second bracket 2 is arranged in the fixing groove 102 to support and fix the first bracket 1, and a part of the first bracket 1 is also arranged in the mounting groove 202, thereby ensuring the connection reliability between the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2. At the same time, the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2 are assembled by an insertion installation method, which can reduce the assembly difficulty of the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2, and is convenient for the first bracket 1 to be pulled out from the second bracket 2 during later maintenance, that is, the disassembly of the micro-inverter 200 from the mounting position 300 can be realized, which is conducive to the quick removal of the micro-inverter 200 during later maintenance.

[0061] Combined with Figure 4 , Figure 8 and Figure 10It can be seen that the first direction is opposite to the second direction, that is to say, the opening direction of the fixing groove 102 is opposite to the opening direction of the installation groove 202. For example, when the opening direction of the fixing groove 102 is downward, the opening direction of the installation groove 202 is upward, and the first bracket 1 can be installed at the installation groove 202 by inserting it from top to bottom.

[0062] It can be understood that the first bracket 1 is provided with a first connecting portion 101, and the first connecting portion 101 is used to connect with the micro-inverter 200 to fix the first bracket 1 on the micro-inverter 200, so as to form a fixing structure (i.e., the above-mentioned fixing groove 102) on the micro-inverter 200 through the first bracket 1; the second bracket 2 is provided with a second connecting portion 201, and the second connecting portion 201 is used to connect with the installation position 300 to fix the second bracket 2 at the installation position 300, so as to form an installation structure (i.e., the above-mentioned installation groove 202) at the installation position 300 through the second bracket 2. During the installation process of the micro-inverter 200, the micro-inverter 200 with the first bracket 1 installed can be moved to the installation position 300 together, and through the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2, the micro-inverter 200 and the first bracket 1 arranged on the micro-inverter 200 can be assembled at the installation position 300 together, and the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2 are fixed by inserting and matching, so as to arrange the micro-inverter 200 at the installation position 300.

[0063] Therefore, by connecting and cooperating the first bracket 1 with the micro-inverter 200, a fixing structure is formed on the micro-inverter 200, reducing the design difficulty of the housing of the micro-inverter 200, and by connecting and cooperating the second bracket 2 with the installation position 300, an installation structure is formed at the installation position 300. By inserting and unplugging the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2, the installation or removal of the micro-inverter 200 at the installation position 300 can be realized. The installation method is simple and easy to operate, and the quick disassembly and assembly of the micro-inverter 200 can be realized.

[0064] It can be understood that in the prior art solution, the micro-inverter 200 is fixed at the installation position 300 (such as installation structures such as walls and columns) through the ear plate structure formed on its outer shell and connecting components (such as screws, bolts, etc.). During the reinstallation process after the micro-inverter 200 is removed, if the micro-inverter 200 is arranged at the previous installation position 300 again, the hole structure formed by the connecting components and the installation position 300 will affect the connection reliability of the micro-inverter 200, and problems such as loosening or connection failure are likely to occur.

[0065] In the present application, when the micro inverter 200 needs to be removed, the micro inverter 200 can be quickly removed from the installation position 300, and when the micro inverter 200 needs to be installed at the installation position 300 again, the micro inverter 200 can be arranged at the removal position again by the cooperation of the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2. That is to say, in the present application, the disassembly and assembly of the micro inverter 200 is realized based on the plug-in cooperation of the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2, so that the disassembly and assembly method of the micro inverter 200 is simple and reliable.

[0066] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the first bracket 1 includes a first plate segment 11 , a second plate segment 12 and a transition segment 13 .

[0067] Specifically, the first plate segment 11 is provided with a first connecting portion 101, the second plate segment 12 is opposite to the first plate segment 11 and is spaced apart, the transition segment 13 is connected between the first plate segment 11 and the second plate segment 12, and the transition segment 13, the first plate segment 11 and the second plate segment 12 jointly define the above-mentioned fixing groove 102.

[0068] The first plate segment 11 is used to connect with the micro inverter 200, and the second plate segment 12 is arranged on the side of the first plate segment 11 away from the micro inverter 200, and is connected to the first plate segment 11 through the transition segment 13, thereby forming a groove structure with a U-shaped cross section on the first bracket 1. Figure 4 and Figure 6 The transition section 13 is connected between the end of the first plate section 11 and the end of the second plate section 12, and the transition section 13 is arranged opposite to the opening of the fixing groove 102. When the second bracket 2 is inserted from the opening of the fixing groove 102, the end of the second bracket 2 can abut against the transition section 13 to position the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2.

[0069] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 6 The first plate segment 11 can be constructed as a flat plate structure, so that the first plate segment 11 can be fitted with the housing of the micro inverter 200, thereby increasing the contact area between the first bracket 1 and the micro inverter 200, and making the first bracket 1 and the micro inverter 200 fit compactly, thereby improving the connection reliability between the first bracket 1 and the micro inverter 200.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present application, the first connecting portion 101 is configured as a first mounting hole, and the first mounting hole penetrates through the first plate segment 11 in the thickness direction. During the assembly process of the first bracket 1 and the micro-inverter 200, the first connecting member 31 (such as a threaded connecting member, etc.) can pass through the first mounting hole and be connected and cooperated with the micro-inverter 200 to fix the first bracket 1 on the micro-inverter 200. The installation method is simple and highly reliable.

[0071] In some embodiments of the present application, the connection between the transition segment 13 and the first plate segment 11 is arc-shaped, and the connection between the transition segment 13 and the second plate segment 12 is arc-shaped, so as to prevent stress concentration between the transition segment 13 and the first plate segment 11, and between the transition segment 13 and the second plate segment 12, thereby improving the structural reliability of the first bracket 1.

[0072] Such as Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, an anti-disengagement portion 121 is provided on the side of the second plate segment 12 opposite to the first plate segment 11. The anti-disengagement portion 121 is used for anti-disengagement cooperation with the second bracket 2 to prevent the first bracket 1 after plug-in cooperation from disengaging from the second bracket 2, and improve the assembly reliability between the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2.

[0073] Such as Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the anti-disengagement portion 121 is configured as an anti-disengagement barb, and the anti-disengagement barb extends obliquely from the second plate segment 12 towards the first plate segment 11 and towards the transition segment 13 to cooperate with the second bracket 2 to prevent the second bracket from disengaging from the fixing groove 102.

[0074] It can be understood that when the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2 are plug-in cooperated and the second bracket 2 extends into the fixing groove 102, since the anti-disengagement barb extends towards the transition segment 13, the anti-disengagement barb will not generate excessive resistance to the second bracket 2 inserted towards the transition segment 13, so as to facilitate the insertion of the second bracket 2 into the fixing groove 102. If the second bracket 2 is withdrawn from the fixing groove 102 along the second direction, the anti-disengagement barb can apply a resistance in the first direction to the second bracket 2 to increase the difficulty of the second bracket 2 being withdrawn and reduce the risk of the second bracket 2 being withdrawn from the fixing groove 102.

[0075] Such as Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, a guiding segment 122 is formed on the side of the second plate segment 12 near the opening of the fixing groove 102, and the distance between the guiding segment 122 and the first plate segment 11 gradually increases along the first direction to guide the second bracket 2 through the guiding segment 122 and facilitate the insertion of the second bracket 2 into the fixing groove 102.

[0076] Refer toFigure 4 and Figure 6 It can be understood that the guiding section 122 is a part of the second plate section 12. The guiding section 122 is used to cooperate with the first plate section 11 and form a guiding structure that gradually expands in the first direction at the opening, thereby reducing the installation difficulty of inserting the second plate section 12 into the fixing groove 102 and playing a role in assisting the assembly of the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2.

[0077] As Figure 4 shown, in some embodiments of the present application, an anti-slip portion 111 is provided on the surface of the first plate section 11 opposite to the second plate section 12. The anti-slip portion 111 is used for anti-slip cooperation with the second bracket 2.

[0078] In some embodiments of the present application, the anti-slip portion 111 is configured as anti-slip lines, and the anti-slip lines are arranged in a wavy or serrated shape. That is, the anti-slip portion 111 is configured as a protruding structure protruding from the first plate section 11 toward the second plate section 12, and the wavy or serrated anti-slip lines are arranged along the insertion and extraction direction of the second bracket 2 to further increase the difficulty of the second bracket 2 being disengaged from the fixing groove 102.

[0079] It can be understood that when the second bracket 2 is inserted and cooperated with the fixing groove 102, the second bracket 2 is clamped between the first plate section 11 and the second plate section 12. By setting the anti-slip lines, the contact surface between the first plate section 11 and the second bracket 2 can be increased, thereby increasing the damping between the first plate section 11 and the second bracket 2 to prevent the second bracket 2 from being disengaged from the fixing groove 102.

[0080] Referring to Figure 4 and Figure 6 , the second plate section 12 is provided with a clamping section 123. The clamping section 123 is arranged at the middle position of the second plate section 12 to cooperate with the first plate section 11 through the clamping section 123 to improve the clamping effect of the first bracket 1 on the second bracket 2. Among them, the distance between the clamping section 123 and the first plate section 11 is less than the distance between the first plate section 11 and the area of the second plate section 12 other than the clamping section 123 (such as: at the guiding section 122), so as to improve the clamping effect on the second bracket 2 by changing the clamping size of the fixing groove 102. Among them, the anti-disengagement barbs are arranged at the clamping section 123.

[0081] Referring to Figure 4 , the anti-slip portion 111 is arranged at the middle position of the first plate section 11, and the anti-disengagement portion 121 is arranged at the middle position of the second plate section 12, and the anti-slip portion 111 and the anti-disengagement portion 121 are arranged opposite to each other, so as to further improve the anti-disengagement effect at the local position (i.e., the middle position) of the first bracket 1 and ensure the assembly reliability between the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2.

[0082] In some embodiments of the present application, in the projection perpendicular to the plane where the first plate segment 11 is located, the projection of the first connecting portion 101 is located outside the projection of the second plate segment 12, so that the second plate segment 12 can avoid the first connecting portion 101, so that during the assembly process of the first bracket 1 and the micro-inverter 200, the first connecting portion 101 is exposed, facilitating the operator to cooperate the first connecting member 31 with the first connecting portion 101 (such as: in the way of passing through the first mating portion) to fix the first bracket 1 on the micro-inverter 200, thereby reducing the assembly difficulty between the first bracket 1 and the micro-inverter 200.

[0083] In some embodiments of the present application, the second bracket 2 includes a third plate segment 21 and a fourth plate segment 22. The third plate segment 21 forms an installation groove 202, and the fourth plate segment 22 is connected to the third plate segment 21, and the fourth plate segment 22 is provided with a second connecting portion 201.

[0084] Thus, in the second bracket 2, the third plate segment 21 is used for plugging and mating with the fixing groove 102, and is fixed at the installation position 300 through the fourth plate segment 22, so as to meet the connection requirement between the second bracket 2 and the installation position 300 and the assembly requirement between the second bracket 2 and the first bracket 1 by setting two plate segments.

[0085] Refer to Figure 22 , when the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2 are connected, at least part of the third plate segment 21 is arranged between the first plate segment 11 and the second plate segment 12 to plug and mate the third plate segment 21 with the fixing groove 102, so as to realize the connection and fixation between the second bracket 2 and the first bracket 1.

[0086] It can be understood that the structures of the third plate segment 21 and the fourth plate segment 22 can be designed according to the scenario of forming the installation position 300. For example, the third plate segment 21 and the fourth plate segment 22 are arranged at a certain angle, and the third plate segment 21 and the fourth plate segment 22 are opposite and spaced apart, etc., so that the first bracket 1 is adapted to the second bracket 2 in different installation scenarios, improving the adaptability of the installation bracket 100.

[0087] In some embodiments of the present application, the second connecting portion 201 is configured as a second installation hole, and the second installation hole penetrates through the fourth plate segment 22 along the thickness direction. During the assembly process of the second bracket 2 and the installation position 300, the second connecting member 32 (such as: a threaded connecting member, etc.) can pass through the second installation hole and be connected and mated with the installation position 300 (such as: a column, a wall, a cross bar, etc.) to fix the second bracket 2 at the installation position 300, and the installation method is simple and reliable.

[0088] Such as Figure 7 and Figure 10As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, a limiting boss 212 protruding in the second direction is provided in the installation groove 202 to form a limiting structure in the installation groove 202 that cooperates with the first bracket 1. Among them, the installation groove 202 is recessed along the first direction at the upper end of the third plate segment 21, and the limiting boss 212 is formed at the bottom wall of the installation groove 202, that is, on one side wall surface of the installation groove 202 in the first direction.

[0089] Further in combination with Figure 1 , a limiting groove 131 is provided at the transition section 13, and the limiting boss 212 is inserted and cooperated with the limiting groove 131 to insert and fix the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2. Refer to Figure 17 , during the assembly process of the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2, the third plate segment 21 is inserted into the fixing groove 102 along the second direction, and after the limiting boss 212 is inserted and cooperated with the limiting groove 131, it protrudes from the limiting groove 131 to improve the insertion and cooperation effect of the third plate segment 21 and the fixing groove 102.
