DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments so that those skilled in the art can better understand the present invention and implement it. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0028] Example

[0029] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a photovoltaic module 3 support structure of the present invention includes:

[0030] a crossbeam extending along a first direction;

[0031] a purlin 5 provided on the crossbeam and extending along the second direction, with first supporting portions 6 extending from both sides of the purlin 5;

[0032] The purlin support 9 includes a side plate 94, a stiffening plate 92, and a top plate 91 connected to each other. Both sides of the side plate 94 are connected to the first support portion 6. The top plate 91 is arranged horizontally. The planes of the stiffening plate 92, the top plate 91, and the side plates 94 are perpendicular to each other.

[0033] The water tank 10 assembly has a first side disposed between the photovoltaic assemblies 3 to be installed, and a second side disposed on the top plate 91 .

[0034] The photovoltaic module 3 support structure described in the present invention is that rainfall or cleaning water falls on the surface of the photovoltaic module 3 and flows down along the surface of the photovoltaic module 3. Since the first side of the water trough 10 component is arranged between the photovoltaic modules 3, the water will be guided into the water trough 10 component. Through the function of the water trough 10 component to gather water flow, the water will flow to the lowest point of the water trough 10 component under the action of gravity, so that the water can be discharged quickly. The water trough 10 component can also prevent water from leaking from the connection to the bottom of the photovoltaic module 3. The purlin support 9 and the side plate 94 are connected to the first support part 6 to prevent the purlin 5 from twisting, and the top plate 91 provides a large area support for the water trough 10 component. The top plate 91 and the side plate 94 are supported vertically, and a stiffening plate 92 is provided to make the purlin support 9 bear pressure on the water trough 10 component and the inclined beam 2, forming a support structure in three perpendicular spatial directions, forming sufficient support between the purlin 5, the inclined beam 2 and the water trough 10 component, and the reasonable structural layout makes full use of materials and balanced stress, which can greatly save the amount of steel.

[0035] Reference Figure 2 As shown, the water tank 10 assembly includes: a water tank 10, a cross arm 7 and a frame. The water tank 10 is arranged on the top plate 91. The extension direction of the cross arm 7 and the water tank 10 is perpendicular. The cross arm 7 covers the water tank 10 and is connected to the top plate 91. The water tank 10 is arranged under the adjacent photovoltaic module 3. The water tank 10 is fixed to the top plate 91 by the cross arm 7, and the frame is supported by the cross arm 7. The photovoltaic module 3 is installed on the frame to form an overall installation structure.

[0036] The cross arm 7 includes a second supporting portion 71 and a fixing portion 72. The two ends of the second supporting portion 71 are respectively connected to the fixing portion 72. The second supporting portion 71 is arranged on one side of the water tank 10. The fixing portion 72 is connected to the top plate 91. The second supporting portion 71 is arranged above the water tank 10 and does not affect the flow of water. The second supporting body and the fixing portion 72 are bent into one piece to fix the fixing plate and the water tank 10 together on the top plate 91.

[0037] A pressing block 8 is provided on one side of the frame, and a receiving space 11 is provided between the pressing block 8 and the frame. The receiving space 11 is used to place the photovoltaic component 3 to be installed. The receiving space 11 is formed on the frame by the pressing block 8. The size of the receiving space 11 is adapted to the photovoltaic component 3 to be installed, so that the photovoltaic component 3 to be installed can be clamped in the receiving space 11 and can be further locked by screws or pins.

[0038] Reference Figure 3 As shown, there are at least two side panels 94, and the first support portion 6 extends to the third direction with a limit plate, one of the side panels 94 is fitted with the limit plate, and the plane where the limit plate is located is parallel to the plane where the purlin 5 main body plate is located, at least two side panels 94 are respectively connected to the first support portion 6 and the purlin 5 main body plate, and the other side panel 94 is fitted with the main body plate on the back of the purlin 5 and is locked by screws.

[0039] There is a spacing space 93 between at least two side panels 94, and the purlin 5 is accommodated in the spacing space 93. In this embodiment, there are two side panels 94, and the planes where the two side panels 94 are located are parallel to each other. The purlin 5 is clamped between the two side panels 94 to prevent the purlin 5 from twisting when subjected to lateral force. The two side panels 94 are connected by the top panel 91.

[0040] Continue to refer to Figure 3 As shown, each side panel 94 is connected to a stiffening plate 92, the stiffening plate 92 extends along a first direction, and the side panel 94 extends along a second direction. In order to prevent the purlin 5 from tipping over, the stiffening plate 92 is provided in the height direction of the side panel 94, and the plane where the stiffening plate 92 is located is perpendicular to the plane where the side panel 94 is located.

[0041] The side panels 94 are connected to the purlin 5 by the first bolt, the top panel 91 is connected to the cross arm 7 by the second bolt, and the frame is connected to the second support portion 71 by the third bolt. The side panels 94 and the stiffening plate 92 are welded to the inclined beam 2. Since the side panels 94 and the stiffening plate 92 are placed vertically on the inclined beam 2, the contact area between them and the inclined beam 2 is relatively small, and the contact area is the product of their thickness and length. However, since the side panels 94 and the stiffening plate 92 adopt a flat plate structure in order to reduce the amount of steel used and the deadweight load, their thickness is relatively small, and it is inconvenient to set a bolt connection method. Therefore, the side panels 94 and the stiffening plate 92 are welded to the inclined beam 2, and the contact parts of the side panels 94 and the stiffening plate 92 with the inclined beam 2 are only subjected to pressure. The difference is that the side panels 94 are subjected to pressure in the first direction, and the stiffening plate 92 is subjected to pressure in the second direction. The planes in which the first and second directions are located are parallel to the planes in which the top panel 91 and the top of the inclined beam 2 are located. Therefore, they can withstand torsional forces in all directions to prevent deformation and torsion.

[0042] Example 2

[0043] Reference Figure 4As shown, this embodiment provides a carport, including a photovoltaic component 3 support structure as described in Example 1.

[0044] The carport described in this embodiment can provide effective support for the photovoltaic components 3 by applying the photovoltaic component 3 support structure in Example 1, and can provide power for electric vehicles in the carport by generating electricity through the photovoltaic components 3.

[0045] The carport further includes: parking spaces 12, blocks 13, columns 1 and photovoltaic modules 3. There are multiple parking spaces 12, and each parking space 12 is provided with a block 13. The columns 1 are provided between adjacent parking spaces 12. The support mechanism is provided on the columns 1, and the photovoltaic modules 3 are provided on the support mechanism. When a vehicle enters the carport, the parking space 12 provides parking space for the vehicle, and the blocks 13 position or protect the vehicle. The columns 1 support the entire carport structure, and the support mechanism stably fixes the photovoltaic modules 3 above the carport. The photovoltaic modules 3 perform photoelectric conversion under sunlight. The electrical energy generated by the photovoltaic modules 3 can be converted into alternating current through devices such as inverters, and used for lighting, charging facilities, or connection to the power grid in the carport, so that the entire carport structure remains stable under various load conditions. At the same time, the photovoltaic modules 3 continue to perform power generation functions, realizing the multifunctional use of the carport.
