[0043] Example 1
[0044] See also Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a photovoltaic module clamp includes a first clamping unit 1 and a second clamping unit 2. The first clamping unit 1 includes a first horizontal plate 10. One end of the first horizontal plate 10 in the longitudinal direction is connected to a first clamping plate 11. The first horizontal plate 10 is provided with one or more connecting threaded holes 13.

The surface of the second horizontal plate 20 is provided with a connecting through hole 23 corresponding to the connecting threaded hole. In this embodiment, the second horizontal plate is provided with two connecting through holes.
[0046] When the first horizontal plate 10 and the second horizontal plate 20 are connected, the second horizontal plate 20 is arranged above the first horizontal plate, and the fastener 3 passes through the connecting through hole 23 of the second horizontal plate 20 and is connected to the connecting threaded hole 13 of the first horizontal plate 10. The first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 21 are arranged opposite to each other, and a clamping space 3 is formed between the first horizontal plate 10 and the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 21. The first horizontal plate 10 and / or the second horizontal plate 20 are provided with a connecting part 4 connected to the photovoltaic module.
[0047] The utility model designs a photovoltaic module clamp, which clamps the convex part of the tile surface through the clamping space formed between the first horizontal plate, the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate, thereby realizing the connection and fixation of the photovoltaic module clamp and the tile. In the connection process, the fastener connects the first clamping unit and the second clamping unit together, and there is no fastener connected to the tile, which reduces the damage to the tile during the installation of the photovoltaic module clamp, thereby also reducing the subsequent process steps such as waterproofing treatment. The photovoltaic module clamp is easy to install and the connection is reliable, which reduces the damage to the tile.
[0048] For further information, see Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the connecting portion 4 described in this embodiment includes a first rib 12 provided at both ends of the width direction of the lower surface of the first horizontal plate 10, and a second rib 22 provided at both ends of the width direction of the upper surface of the second horizontal plate 20.

The fastener passes through the connecting through hole of the rotating plate and is connected to the connecting threaded hole on the first clamping plate. The rotating plate can rotate around the connection between it and the second horizontal plate, but the two are inseparable. The rotating structural design is adopted, and the rotating plate will not interfere with the first clamping plate during the assembly process, which facilitates the assembly of the first horizontal plate and the second horizontal plate and improves the assembly efficiency.
[0050] The connection structure between the rotating plate and the second horizontal plate is described below.
[0051] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the other end of the second horizontal plate 20 is provided with a cylindrical shaft 200, and the upper end of the rotating plate 24 is provided with a C-shaped clamp 241, and the C-shaped clamp 241 of the rotating plate is sleeved on the cylindrical shaft.
[0052] Further references Figure 5 As shown, another connection structure is given here, the other end of the second horizontal plate is provided with a recess 203, and the second horizontal plates on both sides of the recess are respectively provided with pin mounting holes, and the upper end of the rotating plate is provided with a protrusion 242 that can fit in the recess, and the protrusion is provided with a pin hole, and the pin is connected through the pin hole and the pin mounting hole to realize the connection between the rotating plate and the second horizontal plate.
[0053] During the connection process of the first horizontal plate and the second horizontal plate of the first clamping unit and the second clamping unit, the rotating plate connected to the second horizontal plate can be rotated to a certain angle to avoid interference between the rotating plate and the first clamping plate of the first clamping unit during the approach of the second horizontal plate of the second clamping unit and the first horizontal plate of the first clamping unit, thereby facilitating the assembly between the first clamping unit and the second clamping unit and improving the assembly efficiency.
[0054] Example 2

The first horizontal plate 10 is provided with one or more connecting threaded holes 13. In this embodiment, the first horizontal plate is provided with two connecting threaded holes, and the two connecting threaded holes are arranged in a straight line in the longitudinal direction of the first horizontal plate.
[0056] The second clamping unit 2 includes a second horizontal plate 20, one end of which is connected to a second clamping plate 21 in the longitudinal direction. The surface of the second horizontal plate 20 is provided with a connecting through hole 23 corresponding to the connecting threaded hole. In this embodiment, the second horizontal plate is provided with two connecting through holes.
[0057] When the first horizontal plate 10 and the second horizontal plate 20 are connected, the second horizontal plate 20 is arranged above the first horizontal plate, and the fastener 3 passes through the connecting through hole 23 of the second horizontal plate 20 and is connected to the connecting threaded hole 13 of the first horizontal plate 10. The first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 21 are arranged opposite to each other, and a clamping space 3 is formed between the first horizontal plate 10 and the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 21. The first horizontal plate 10 and / or the second horizontal plate 20 are provided with a connecting part 4 connected to the photovoltaic module.
[0058] The structure of the connecting portion in this embodiment is different from that of Example 1. The connecting portion 4 includes a first connecting edge 201 provided at both ends in the width direction of the upper surface of the second horizontal plate 20, and a pressing edge 202 extending laterally from the upper end of the second connecting edge. The pressing edge is used to press on the upper end surface of the photovoltaic frame. The first connecting edge and the pressing edge are integrally formed with the second horizontal plate. When the second clamping unit is assembled with the first clamping unit, the photovoltaic component is simultaneously installed under the pressing edge. The fasteners connect the first horizontal plate and the second horizontal plate to fix the photovoltaic component clamp to the tile plate and the photovoltaic component, thereby improving installation efficiency.

[0063] The structure of the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate is limited above. The first clamping edge, the second clamping edge and the third clamping edge can form a vertical limiting structure. When the first clamping unit and the second clamping unit are connected, the first clamping edge, the second clamping edge, the third clamping edge, the fourth clamping edge, the fifth clamping edge and the sixth clamping edge are tightly attached to the side walls of the raised part of the tile, thereby realizing a fixed connection between the photovoltaic module clamp and the tile.
[0064] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
