[0034] In addition, the technical features involved in different embodiments of the present utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0035] Embodiment 1:

[0036] Referring to Figures 1-3 As shown, a large-amplitude variable reservoir-type flexible photovoltaic system includes a cableway unit 200 and a photovoltaic unit 300. The cableway unit 200 includes anchor points 210 and a bearing plate cable 220. A plurality of anchor points 210 are respectively installed on two opposite sides of the periphery of the reservoir basin 100, and bearing plate cables 220 are respectively installed on the corresponding anchor points 210 on both sides. The photovoltaic unit 300 includes a photovoltaic panel group, and each photovoltaic panel group is installed on at least two bearing plate cables 220. The cableway unit 200 is used to install the photovoltaic panel group of the photovoltaic unit 300, and the photovoltaic unit 300 generates electric energy through the photovoltaic panel group. Through the above structure, the installation of photovoltaic panels can be realized in the reservoir basin 100 of the pumped storage reservoir.

[0037] In this embodiment, an installation seat can be arranged at the bottom of the photovoltaic panel group. The pressing plate presses the bearing plate cable 200 from the lower side of the bearing plate cable, and the bolt passes through the pressing plate and is connected to the installation seat, thereby fixing the photovoltaic panel group on the bearing plate cable 220.

[0038] Referring to Figure 4 、 5 , a conical groove 211 is arranged on the anchor point 210. The diameter of the conical groove 211 from the platform 101 to the side of the reservoir basin 100 gradually decreases. The top of the anchor point 210 has a notch communicating with the conical groove 211. Two conical-shaped plug plates 212 are installed in the conical groove 211, and the two plug plates 212 clamp the bearing plate cable 220. By clamping the bearing plate cable 220 with two conical-shaped plug plates 212, the connection between the bearing plate cable 220 and the anchor point 210 is convenient and reliable.

[0039] Furthermore, referring to Figure 4 , a first backing plate 215 is installed on the inner side of the plug plate 212. Specifically, the first backing plate 215 is a copper backing plate adapted to the inner hole of the plug plate 212. Because the copper backing plate has a larger friction coefficient and is easy to deform, a larger frictional force is formed between the copper backing plate and the bearing plate cable 220 after being subjected to extrusion force. Coupled with the conical structure of the plug plate 212, the plug plate 212 can clamp the bearing plate cable 220 outside the bearing plate cable 220, ensuring that the bearing plate cable 220 does not come out of the anchor point.

[0040] Embodiment 2:

[0041] Referring to Figure 2 、 5, a rope locking member 213 is further provided on the anchor point 210, and a maintenance cable 230 is connected to the rope locking members 213 corresponding to the anchor points 210 on both sides. The maintenance cable 230 is located above the photovoltaic panel group. On the one hand, when personnel go onto the photovoltaic panel 310 for maintenance, the maintenance cable 230 is used as a handrail rope; on the other hand, a safety belt or safety rope can also be hung on the maintenance cable 230 to ensure the safety of maintenance personnel.

[0042] Further, referring to Figure 4 , 5 , the lower end of the rope locking member 213 passes through the anchor point 210 and extends into the ground. Since the height of the maintenance cable 230 is higher than that of the bearing cable and the photovoltaic panel, in the event of a lightning strike, the lightning will first be introduced to the ground through the maintenance cable by the rope locking member 213, thus achieving the effect of lightning protection. Specifically, the upper end of the rope locking member 213 is annular, and the lower end is rod-shaped and extends into the ground.

[0043] Embodiment 3:

[0044] Referring to Figure 6 , 7 , a plurality of panel wheels 320 are provided at the bottom of the photovoltaic panel group. The photovoltaic panel group is clamped and installed on the bearing cable 220 through the panel wheels 320; the panel wheel 320 includes an upper clamping wheel 321, a lower clamping wheel 322 and a vertical plate 323. The upper clamping wheel 321 and the lower clamping wheel 322 are rotatably installed between the two vertical plates 323, and the bearing cable 220 is located between the upper clamping wheel 321 and the lower clamping wheel 322. Multiple groups of panel wheels 320 are provided under each photovoltaic panel so that the photovoltaic panel can be retracted and installed on the bearing cable 220 under the traction of the maintenance vehicle. Each group of panel wheels is divided into an upper clamping wheel 321 above the bearing cable and a lower clamping wheel 322 stuck under the bearing cable. The upper clamping wheel 321 and the lower clamping wheel 322 are reliably stuck on the bearing cable through bolts connected by the vertical plates 323 on both sides, ensuring that the photovoltaic panel will not derail from the bearing cable during installation or operation.

[0045] Further, referring to Figure 6 , the photovoltaic panel group includes a plurality of photovoltaic panels 310. Connecting plates 311 are respectively provided at both ends of the photovoltaic panel 310. The connecting plates 311 between adjacent photovoltaic panels 310 are connected by fasteners 312. By providing the connecting plates 311, it is convenient to connect adjacent photovoltaic panels 310. When connecting, holes are provided on the connecting plates 311, and the connecting plates 311 of adjacent photovoltaic panels 310 can be connected by bolts or steel wires.

[0046] In one of the solutions, a metal plate is adhesively bonded to the bottom of the photovoltaic panel 310 by structural glue, and the two vertical plates 323 of the panel wheel 320 are welded and fixed to this metal plate.

[0047] Further, referring to Figure 6, a locking ring 214 is provided at the top of the anchor point 210. One end of the photovoltaic panel group near the anchor point 210 is installed with a locking rope 313 through a connecting plate 311, and the locking rope 313 is connected and fixed to the locking ring 214. The photovoltaic panel group is connected and fixed to the anchor point 210 through the locking rope 313.

[0048] Further, there are two groups of photovoltaic panel groups on the load-bearing cable 220. One end of the two adjacent photovoltaic panel groups is not connected, and the other ends away from each other are respectively connected to the anchor point 210 through the locking ropes 313.

[0049] During implementation, the photovoltaic unit 300 further includes a busbar box, an inverter, and a transformer. Each photovoltaic panel group is electrically connected to the busbar box through a cable. The busbar box is electrically connected to the inverter, and the inverter is electrically connected to the transformer. The current collected through the cable is first aggregated by the busbar box, and then the direct current is uniformly converted into alternating current by the inverter, and then boosted by the transformer and transmitted outward.

[0050] As an alternative implementation method, the locking rope member 213 and the locking ring 214 can be integrally designed, and the same function can be achieved with a single integral structure, which is also within the protection scope of this patent.

[0051] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples given for clear illustration and not limitations on the implementation methods. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or variations can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all the implementation methods here. And the obvious changes or variations derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this utility model creation.
