All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application. Figure 2 of the upper part is described as the upper part). All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0015] Please refer to Figure 1-2 , the present application provides a technical solution: an adjustable mounting bracket for a solar panel, including a base cross brace 7. A vertical support mounting seat 9 is provided at the middle position of the base cross brace 7. A vertical column brace 5 is connected in the groove between the vertical support mounting seats 9. The vertical column brace 5 is an adjustable telescopic mechanism and is height-locked by a locking group.
[0016] The base cross brace 7 is the foundation of the entire mounting bracket, providing necessary stability and balance. It is made of a strong material, such as steel or aluminum alloy, to ensure that it can bear heavy weights and the influence of the external environment.
[0017] The vertical support mounting seat 9 is located at the middle position of the base cross brace 7, providing a fixed mounting position for the vertical column brace 5 to ensure that the vertical column brace 5 can be stably mounted in the vertical direction.
[0018] The vertical column brace 5 is an adjustable telescopic mechanism and its height can be adjusted according to actual needs; the vertical column brace 5 is divided into a lower brace and an upper rising brace, and the height adjustment is achieved through their mutual cooperation.
[0019] An intermediate mounting plate 16 is provided on the upper surface of the vertical column brace 5 for fixedly connecting the support frame 4, and finally supporting the installation of the solar panel.
[0020] After adjusting the height of the vertical column brace 5, the locking group fixes the position of the vertical column brace 5 to prevent it from rising or falling due to external forces.
[0021] The upper surface of the vertical strut 5 of the column is provided with an intermediate mounting plate 16. The upper end of the intermediate mounting plate 16 is provided with a connecting support frame 4. The end of the connecting support frame 4 is provided with a vertical guide plate. A rotating shaft 2 is sleeved in the shaft sleeve of the vertical guide plate. One end of the rotating shaft 2 is provided with a handwheel 3, and the other end of the rotating shaft 2 is connected to the upper support 1.
[0022] The intermediate mounting plate 16 provides a fixed platform for the connecting support frame 4 to ensure the stability of the connecting support frame 4, thereby ensuring the stability of the solar panel after installation.
[0023] The connecting support frame 4 is located above the intermediate mounting plate 16 and is connected to the upper support 1 through the vertical guide plate and the rotating shaft 2 to form a structure with adjustable angle.
[0024] There is a shaft sleeve in the center of the vertical guide plate for installing the rotating shaft 2 and enabling the rotating shaft 2 to rotate therein.
[0025] The handwheel 3 is installed at one end of the rotating shaft 2, which is an operating component for manually adjusting the tilt angle of the solar panel. By rotating the handwheel 3, the rotating shaft 2 is driven to rotate, adjusting the position of the upper support 1 relative to the connecting support frame 4, and further changing the tilt angle of the solar panel to face the sun.
[0026] The upper support 1 is one of the parts directly in contact with the solar panel. Through the threaded holes thereon and in cooperation with fasteners, the functions of supporting and fixing the solar panel are realized.
[0027] On one side of the vertical strut 5 of the column, a cylinder mounting bracket 6 is further provided. The cylinder mounting bracket 6 is connected with an adjusting cylinder 10 through fasteners. The telescopic end of the adjusting cylinder 10 is connected with a lower support 17. The upper support 1 and the lower support 17 are used for placing the solar panel.
[0028] The cylinder mounting bracket 6 is used to fix the position of the adjusting cylinder 10, ensuring the stability and precise control of the adjusting cylinder 10.
[0029] The adjusting cylinder 10 performs telescopic actions through hydraulic or pneumatic means. The telescopic end of the adjusting cylinder 10 is connected to the lower support 17. By controlling the telescopic movement of the cylinder, the position of the lower support 17 can be adjusted, thereby indirectly adjusting the tilt angle of the solar panel.
[0030] The lower support 17 and the upper support 1 are used for installing the solar panel. By adjusting the telescopic movement of the adjusting cylinder 10 and the adjustment system composed of the handwheel 3 and the rotating shaft 2, the angle adjustment of the solar panel is realized.
[0031] Furthermore, the vertical strut 5 of the column is divided into a lower support frame and an upper rising frame. Through holes are provided at the contact positions of the lower ends of both the lower support frame and the upper rising frame.
[0032] The lower support frame is a fixed part of the vertical column strut 5. It is installed on the vertical support mounting seat 9 and serves as the foundation for the entire vertical column strut 5. A through hole is provided at the lower end of the lower support frame for connection with the locking group.
[0033] The rising frame is a movable part of the vertical column strut 5. It can slide up and down inside the lower support frame to adjust the height of the entire mounting frame; a through hole is also provided at the lower end of the rising frame for cooperation with the lower support frame and is fixed in place by the locking group.
[0034] Further, the locking group includes a locking support 14, a first locking shaft 13, a handle pulling seat 12, and an auxiliary capping seat 15. The locking support 14 is located in front of the vertical column strut 5 and is correspondingly arranged with the through holes at the front ends of the lower support frame and the rising frame on the vertical column strut 5. The first locking shaft 13 passes through the left - right through hole of the vertical column strut 5. There is a mounting seat on one side of the lower support frame of the vertical column strut 5, and a handle pulling seat 12 is arranged on the mounting seat. The handle pulling seat 12 and the auxiliary capping seat 15 are hinged to the vertical column strut 5, and the arc - shaped groove at the end of the auxiliary capping seat 15 is engaged with the first locking shaft 13.
[0035] The locking support 14 is installed in front of the vertical column strut 5 and is aligned with the through holes at the front ends of the lower support frame and the rising frame on the vertical column strut 5 to ensure that the locking support 14 locks the lower support frame and the rising frame in the front - rear direction.
[0036] The first locking shaft 13 is a horizontal shaft with a diameter slightly smaller than the diameters of the through holes on the lower support frame and the rising frame of the vertical column strut 5 for easy insertion and extraction. When the first locking shaft 13 passes through these two through holes, it can fix the lower support frame and the rising frame together to prevent relative sliding.
[0037] The handle pulling seat 12 provides a handle for the first locking shaft 13 for easy operation. Users can lift or lower the first locking shaft 13 through it.
[0038] The auxiliary capping seat 15 is also connected to the handle pulling seat 12 through a hinge point. When the first locking shaft 13 is lifted, the arc - shaped groove of the auxiliary capping seat 15 can be engaged with the first locking shaft 13 to fix the position of the first locking shaft 13 and prevent it from accidentally falling.
[0039] Further, a reinforcing side rib is provided between the base cross strut 7 and the vertical column strut 5. The reinforcing side rib is connected to the ear plates provided on the base cross strut 7 and the vertical column strut 5 through fasteners.
[0040] The reinforcing side rib is a component for increasing structural strength, usually made of metal, to improve the connection strength between the base cross strut 7 and the vertical column strut 5 and prevent deformation or loosening when subjected to external forces.
[0041] The ear plate is a small metal plate welded or fixed on the base cross brace 7 and the column vertical brace 5, usually with through holes for connecting with the reinforcing side ribs through fasteners. It provides a firm mounting point for the reinforcing side ribs to ensure that they can function effectively.
[0042] Furthermore, universal wheels 8 are provided at both lower ends of the base cross brace 7.
[0043] The universal wheels 8 are installed at both lower ends of the base cross brace 7, enabling the entire mounting frame to move easily on a plane. This facilitates the user to move the entire device easily and transfer the equipment to the optimal lighting position without disassembly.
[0044] Furthermore, elastic locking shafts 11 are provided at both ends of the lower bracket 17.
[0045] Elastic locking shafts 11 are provided at both ends of the lower bracket 17 for achieving quick disassembly of the lower bracket 17 and the adjusting cylinder 10, thereby improving the assembly efficiency.
[0046] The lower bracket 17, the upper bracket 1, and the connecting brace 4 are all connected through connecting sleeves, which can conveniently adjust the distance to accommodate solar panels of different specifications. The connecting sleeves are inserted into the lower bracket 17 and the upper bracket 1, facilitating the disassembly and assembly of each component and improving the convenience of use.
[0047] During use: Place the solar panel between the upper bracket 1 and the lower bracket 17, and fix the solar panel by matching the threaded holes on the upper bracket 1 and the lower bracket 17 with fasteners. Manually move the lifting frame up and down to the required height; at this time, observe whether the solar panel has reached the ideal lighting angle. After adjustment, lower the first locking shaft 13 so that it passes through the through holes on the lower support of the column vertical brace 5 and the lifting frame, and engage with the first locking shaft 13 through the arc-shaped groove of the auxiliary support seat 15 to complete height locking. According to the position of the sun, rotate the handwheel 3 to drive the rotation of the rotating shaft 2, thereby adjusting the position of the upper bracket 1 relative to the connecting brace 4 and changing the tilt angle of the solar panel. Continuously adjust until the solar panel faces the sun to obtain the best lighting effect. At the same time, the adjusting cylinder 10 is activated, and it extends or retracts to adjust the position of the lower bracket 17. When the adjusting cylinder 10 extends, it will push the lower bracket 17 forward to increase the tilt angle of the solar panel; when the adjusting cylinder 10 contracts, the lower bracket 17 moves downward to reduce the tilt angle, thereby achieving the best lighting angle.
[0048] Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present application. The scope of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
