Description

Technical Field

[0002] Photovoltaic panels are the core components of photovoltaic power generation systems, and the assembly of photovoltaic panel modules is a critical step in building a photovoltaic power station system. Traditionally, existing assembly methods rely heavily on manual labor. The panels are transported to the installation area on site, manually lifted and lowered onto the brackets, and then bolted down after installers adjust their position and orientation. Throughout this entire process, secure installation and tightening are essential to ensure they withstand wind and external factors, ensuring proper operation. Traditional photovoltaic module installation is labor-intensive and inefficient. With the widespread construction of photovoltaic power stations and rising labor costs, it's imperative that this laborious task be replaced with intelligent, automated methods.

[0003] A torque tube supporting the photovoltaic panel needs to be installed on its back. During installation, the panel needs to be placed slightly tilted before the torque tube is locked to the back of the panel. The torque tube's rotation angle also needs to be controlled during installation. In practice, the torque tube is relatively long, and its diameter varies depending on the size of the photovoltaic panel. This typically requires the collaboration of multiple people, resulting in inefficient installation. Utility Model Content

The first lifting group 31 is arranged below the first adjustment group 21, and the first lifting group 31 is used to lift the adjustment assembly 2. At least one second lifting group 32 is arranged below the torque tube 82. The second lifting group 32 and the first lifting group 31 are used to lift the torque tube 82 upward so that the chuck 231 engages the torque tube 82 and then adjusts the rotation angle of the torque tube 82; the stop block assembly 4 is arranged on the base 1, and the stop block assembly 4 is arranged between the first lifting group 31 and the second lifting group 32. The stop block assembly 4 is used to limit the bearing seat 83 that is mounted but not installed on the torque tube 82.

[0070] In this embodiment, the base 1 can be understood as the primary support structure for installing the photovoltaic assembly 8. It should be noted that during the installation of the photovoltaic assembly 8, the photovoltaic panels 81 must first be tilted and placed on the base 1 at a certain angle. Purlins are then installed between two adjacent photovoltaic panels 81. After the purlins are installed, the torque tube 82 is placed horizontally behind the photovoltaic panels 81, with the torque tube 82 positioned along the central axis of the photovoltaic panels 81. A bearing seat 83 is sleeved on the torque tube 82 and secured to prevent the bearing seat 83 from sliding on the torque tube 82 during installation. The torque tube 82 is then rotated so that the mounting holes on the torque tube 82 align with the reserved mounting holes for the torque tube 82 on the photovoltaic panels 81. Finally, the bolts on the torque tube 82 are tightened to maintain relative fixation between the torque tube 82 and the photovoltaic panels 81. After installation, the angle of the row of photovoltaic panels 81 can be adjusted by adjusting the rotation angle of the torque tube 82.

[0071] During the installation process of the torque tube 82, there are problems: the torque tube 82 is long and heavy, and manual handling and lifting require a lot of energy. At the same time, the torque tube 82 needs to be kept at a certain height, which requires multiple workers to maintain consistency in their actions during the handling of the torque tube 82, which is difficult to control; and on this basis, the axial rotation angle of the torque tube 82 also needs to be adjusted, which has certain precision requirements.

[0072] Based on this, the feed assembly device provided in this embodiment can realize automatic position adjustment of the torque tube 82, so as to simplify the installation steps of the torque tube 82, free up manpower, and improve installation efficiency.

[0073] In this embodiment, the adjustment assembly 2 is arranged at one end of the base 1. The adjustment assembly 2 includes a first adjustment group 21, a second adjustment group 22, and a third adjustment group 23. The first adjustment group 21 has a first movable end, the second adjustment group 22 has a second movable end, and the third adjustment group 23 is provided with a chuck 231. The first movable end can move along a first direction a, the second movable end can move along a second direction b, and the chuck 231 on the third movable end can rotate along a third direction c. The chuck 231 is used to engage the end of the torque tube 82. In this embodiment, the first direction a and the second direction b are as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the second adjustment group 22 is set at the first moving end, and the third adjustment group 23 is set at the second moving end, so the chuck 231 has the ability to adjust the displacement within the plane formed by the first direction a and the second direction b. Specifically, the third direction c shown in this embodiment is the rotation direction, such as Figure 2 As shown, after the chuck 231 on the third movable end engages the torque tube 82, the rotation angle of the torque tube 82 can be adjusted so that the mounting hole on the torque tube 82 is adapted to the mounting hole on the photovoltaic panel 81 to meet actual usage requirements.

[0074] This embodiment further includes a lifting assembly 3, which includes a first lifting group 31 and a second lifting group 32. The first lifting group 31 is disposed below the adjustment assembly 2. That is, the adjustment assembly 2 as a whole can be lifted back and forth in the vertical direction by the first lifting group 31 to meet the height adjustment requirements of the torque tube 82 clamped on the chuck 231. The second lifting group 32 is disposed on the torque tube 82. The first lifting group 31 and the second lifting group 32 can lift the torque tube 82 and adjust the installation height of the torque tube 82. It should be noted that the number of second lifting groups 32 can be multiple, and multiple second lifting groups 32 are disposed at intervals below the torque tube 82.

[0075] Furthermore, this embodiment is also provided with a block assembly 4, which is used to limit the displacement of the bearing seat 83 mounted on the torque tube 82, thereby preventing the bearing seat 83 from shifting during the installation of the torque tube 82, resulting in rework of the installation operation of the torque tube 82.

[0076] When in use, after placing the torque tube 82 on the base 1, the bearing seat 83 is manually inserted from the end of the torque tube 82 into the bearing seat 83, and the bearing seat 83 is adjusted to the limit area of ​​the block assembly 4; the adjustment assembly 2 is controlled to make the chuck 231 coaxial with the torque tube 82, and the chuck 231 is controlled to engage with the torque tube 82; the lifting assembly 3 is controlled to adjust the height of the torque tube 82, and at the same time, the block assembly 4 is controlled to keep the bearing seat 83 limited; after the torque tube 82 reaches the installation position, the rotation angle of the chuck 231 is controlled to make the installation hole of the torque tube 82 coincide with the installation hole of the photovoltaic panel 81, and the torque tube 82 is kept in this position. After that, the torque tube 82 can be locked on the photovoltaic panel 81 manually or automatically to complete the locking operation of the photovoltaic panel 81.

[0077] In some embodiments, a nut locking mechanism and a bolt locking mechanism may be provided on both sides of the base 1 to achieve automatic installation of the torque tube 82 , thereby freeing up manpower and improving installation efficiency.

[0078] The device shown in this embodiment realizes automatic adjustment of the lifting and position adjustment of the torque tube 82 through the coordinated cooperation of various components, which fully reduces the position adjustment steps during the installation of the torque tube 82 and improves the installation efficiency of the torque tube 82.

[0089] In this embodiment, the fifth drive unit is disposed on the lower surface of the base 1. The relationship between the fifth drive unit, the second base plate 321, the second screw 323, and the second screw nut can be understood by referring to the positional relationship between the fourth drive unit, the first base plate 24, the first screw, and the first screw nut. Similarly, the fifth drive unit and the fourth drive unit need to be controlled by certain logic to ensure that the vertical displacement of the first engaging member and the chuck 231 remains consistent.

[0090] By setting the first lifting group 31 and the second lifting group 32, the torque tube 82 can be automatically adjusted in height. In some optional embodiments, the torque tube 82 can be adjusted to the required rotation angle first, and then the torque tube 82 can be moved toward the back of the photovoltaic panel 81, that is, the torque tube 82 is controlled to move along the first direction a until the torque tube 82 and the photovoltaic panel 81 are placed within the distance range required for installation, which facilitates the subsequent screwing operations of nuts and bolts and improves installation efficiency.

[0091] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the block assembly 4 also includes a third screw rod, a third screw rod nut, a sixth drive unit, a third base plate 42, a seventh drive unit and a second engaging member 41, the third screw rod is arranged on the base 1, and the third screw rod extends along the second direction b; the third screw rod nut is sleeved on the third screw rod; the sixth drive unit is arranged on the base 1, and the sixth drive unit is transmission connected to the third screw rod; the third base plate 42 is arranged on the third screw rod nut; the seventh drive unit is arranged on the third base plate 42; the second engaging member 41 is transmission connected to the output end of the seventh drive unit, and the second engaging member 41 is used to move upward under the drive of the seventh drive unit to engage the torque tube 82 and limit the bearing seat 83.

[0092] In this embodiment, the stopper assembly 4 includes a third screw, a third screw nut, a sixth drive unit, a third base plate 42, a seventh drive unit, and a second engaging member 41. The second engaging member 41 is used to engage the torque tube 82. Unlike the first engaging member, the second engaging member 41 also limits the axial displacement of the bearing seat 83 relative to the torque tube 82. The second engaging member 41 may be provided with a corresponding limiting protrusion to constrain the bearing seat 83 within the limiting protrusion.

[0093] In this embodiment, the third screw extends along the second direction b, the third base plate 42 is disposed on the third screw nut, and the sixth drive unit is in transmission connection with the third screw.

Optionally, the block assembly 4 also includes an indicator light 43, which can be used to indicate the position status of the bearing seat 83, making it easier for the user to control other equipment based on the position status of the bearing seat 83. For example, when the indicator light 43 is red, indicating that the second engaging member 41 is not currently limiting the bearing seat 83, the user can promptly stop the installation operation of the torque tube 82 to avoid incorrect installation.

[0094] During use, when manually installing the bearing seat 83, the bearing seat 83 can be moved to just above the second engaging member 41. The seventh drive unit is then controlled to lift the second engaging member 41 upward and engage the torque tube 82, while simultaneously placing the bearing seat 83 within the limiting area of ​​the second engaging member 41. Furthermore, by adjusting the sixth drive unit, the third base plate 42, the second engaging member 41, and the bearing seat 83 can be displaced axially along the torque tube 82, thereby adjusting the bearing seat 83. After the bearing seat 83 is adjusted to the reserved position, the limiting relationship between the second engaging member 41 and the bearing seat 83 is maintained, and the position adjustment and installation and locking process of the torque tube 82 are performed. This method can avoid installation errors caused by the position problem of the bearing seat 83 during the installation of the torque tube 82, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the torque tube 82.
