Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of photovoltaic module transport brackets, and in particular to a photovoltaic module transport anti-fall bracket. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of photovoltaic power generation technology, the demand for photovoltaic modules has increased dramatically, and with it comes the need to transport a large number of photovoltaic modules. However, in the actual transportation process, due to the large size and heavy weight of photovoltaic modules, how to ensure the safety of photovoltaic modules has become an urgent problem to be solved. Currently, there are various types of transport brackets on the market for fixing and protecting photovoltaic modules. Although these transport brackets can prevent photovoltaic modules from tilting and collapsing to a certain extent, it is still difficult to effectively ensure the stability of the modules in the face of complex road conditions or sudden braking.

[0003] Most common transport brackets adopt a fixed frame plus cushion design, which is connected to the vehicle body through screw fastening devices at the four corners to limit the movement of photovoltaic modules. However, a common problem with this type of design is insufficient cushioning performance, especially in the event of severe vibration, which can easily cause the photovoltaic modules to loosen or even fall off. Another solution is to set up multiple layers of beams inside the bracket, and use the distance between the beams to adjust to accommodate photovoltaic modules of different sizes. Although this design can better adapt to products of different specifications, the lack of effective lateral fixing measures between the beams leads to poor overall rigidity. When the vehicle is driving on bumpy roads, the photovoltaic modules are prone to shaking.

[0004] Therefore, the photovoltaic module transport brackets currently on the market generally have problems such as insufficient buffering performance and poor adaptability. Especially for long-distance cross-regional transportation, the complex road environment puts higher demands on transportation equipment, and the existing bracket design cannot fully meet this demand.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments.

[0031] Reference Figure 1-3 A photovoltaic module transportation anti-overturning bracket includes a main frame 1, support legs 2, a buffer mechanism 3 and a locking mechanism 4. The main frame 1 is composed of two parallel longitudinal beams 11, and the two longitudinal beams 11 are connected and reinforced by a number of cross beams 12 to form a grid structure. There are four groups of support legs 2, which are arranged at the bottom of both ends of the longitudinal beams 11 respectively. Each group of support legs 2 includes two telescopic support feet 21 and is connected by a hinge assembly 22 to realize the angle adjustment function.

[0032] The telescopic support leg 21 includes a sleeve 211 and a sleeve rod 212. A sleeve rod 212 is provided inside each sleeve 211, and each sleeve rod 212 is threadedly connected to the sleeve 211. The support leg 2 is made of wear-resistant nylon material, which ensures sufficient strength and is not easy to damage, thereby improving the practicality of the device.

[0033] The hinge assembly 22 includes an inverted U bracket 221 and a fastening bolt 222. Each inverted U bracket 221 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the main frame 1, and the top of the sleeve rod 212 of each telescopic support leg 21 is rotatably connected to the inverted U bracket 221; by coordinating the telescopic support leg 21 with the hinge assembly 22, the angle adjustment function is realized to better adapt to the usage scenario, thereby improving the practicality of the device.

[0034] A fastening bolt 222 is provided between each inverted U bracket 221 and the sleeve rod 212; by providing the fastening bolt 222 between the telescopic support leg 21 and the hinge assembly 22, the fastening bolt 222 can adjust the tightness between the telescopic support leg 21 and the hinge assembly 22 for better adjustment, thereby improving the practicality of the device.

[0035] The buffer mechanism 3 is located above the longitudinal beam 11. The buffer mechanism 3 includes a buffer spring 31 and a rubber buffer block 32. There are two groups of buffer springs 31. By setting the buffer spring 31, once the vehicle encounters a bumpy road section or an emergency brake situation during the journey, the buffer mechanism 3 begins to play a role. The buffer spring 31 compresses to store energy and then releases it to alleviate the impact force from the outside, thereby improving the practicality of the device.

[0036] Each group of buffer springs 31 is respectively arranged on the top of the two longitudinal beams 11, and the top end of each group of buffer springs 31 is fixedly connected to a rubber buffer block 32; by setting the rubber buffer block 32, the rubber buffer block 32 will also deform under the action of the buffer spring 31 to absorb part of the energy to further improve the overall stability, thereby improving the practicality of the device.

[0037] The locking mechanism 4 includes an L-support plate 41, an electric push rod 42 and a movable claw 43. Each L-support plate 41 is fixedly connected to the side of the longitudinal beam 11 away from the cross beam 12, and the outside of each L-support plate 41 is fixedly connected to an electric push rod 42. By setting the electric push rod 42 and the movable claw 43, after the photovoltaic component is placed in the main frame 1, the movable claw 43 is driven to move toward the center by starting the electric push rod 42 until it is tightly fitted and clamped on the two sides of the component to achieve the fixation purpose, thereby improving the practicality of the device.

[0038] The telescopic ends of the electric push rod 42 are fixedly connected to movable claws 43, and each movable claw 43 is located above the rubber buffer block 32; the electric push rod 42 drives the movable claws 43 to expand outward so that the distance between the two is greater than the width of the component by about five millimeters and then slowly retracts to achieve automatic locking, checking whether all fasteners are tightened in place to avoid the risk of loosening in the middle, thereby improving the practicality of the device.

[0039] Working principle: After the photovoltaic component is placed in the main frame 1, the active claw 43 is driven to move toward the center by starting the electric push rod 42 until it fits tightly and clamps the two frames of the component to achieve the purpose of fixation. Once a bumpy road or sudden braking situation is encountered during driving, the buffer mechanism 3 begins to play a role, and the buffer spring 31 compresses to store energy and then releases it to alleviate the impact force from the outside. At the same time, the rubber buffer block 32 will also deform and absorb part of the energy to further improve the overall stability. Operation steps and precautions: unfold the support legs 2 and adjust them to the appropriate angle to ensure that the entire device stands firmly on the car floor, lift the photovoltaic component and place it flat in the preset groove position in the main frame 1, turn on the electric push rod 42 to drive the active claw 43 to expand outward so that the distance between the two is about five millimeters greater than the width of the component, and then slowly retract it to achieve automatic locking. Check whether all fasteners are tightened in place to avoid the risk of loosening in the middle.

[0040] The buffer mechanism 3 absorbs impact force by combining a buffer spring 31 with a rubber buffer block 32, ensuring good shock absorption even under harsh road conditions. The locking mechanism 4 effectively clamps and positions the frames on both sides of the photovoltaic module by precisely controlling the opening and closing of the movable claws 43.

[0041] Compared with the existing technology, the technical effect of this technical solution significantly improves the anti-lodging ability of photovoltaic modules during long-distance transportation, enhances the overall buffering performance of the bracket system, reduces the probability of damage caused by external vibration, achieves a more efficient and convenient operation experience, and greatly facilitates the daily loading and unloading operations of workers.

[0042] Regarding the selection of parts, the longitudinal beam 11 is made of high-strength aluminum alloy, which has good strength and toughness and can withstand a certain load without deformation. The cross beam 12 is also made of aluminum alloy pipe to reduce the weight of the entire bracket. The support leg 2 is made of wear-resistant nylon material, which ensures sufficient strength and is not easy to damage. The buffer spring 31 is made of high-quality steel wire, with good elasticity and long service life. The rubber buffer block 32 is made of aging-resistant and high-elastic synthetic rubber.

[0043] The above are only preferred specific implementation methods of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present application within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, and they should be covered by the protection scope of the present application.
