Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of photovoltaic installation, and in particular relates to a photovoltaic component connector. Background Art
[0002] Photovoltaic power generation often requires the installation of a large number of PV modules, particularly in mountainous areas. The complex terrain makes installation of PV modules challenging, making it crucial to secure them together to prevent them from falling and causing significant financial losses. To effectively secure the PV modules and minimize impacts on the modules, connectors are required to connect them. These connectors must not only secure the modules but also facilitate installation, ensuring their stability.
[0003] Currently, most domestic photovoltaic module connectors utilize bolted connections, with a pressure plate secured by bolts and nuts. However, due to the complexity and diversity of terrain, geology, and operational conditions, bolted connections are not always suitable for all projects. Furthermore, the narrow distances between photovoltaic modules can make installation difficult. Therefore, adapting appropriate and convenient module connectors to local conditions and reducing the use of bolts is crucial for ensuring project safety and facilitating project operation and management.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0023] The technical solution of the present invention is further described below, but the scope of protection claimed is not limited to the described solution.
[0024] Example:
[0025] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, a photovoltaic module connector includes a pressing plate 1, a push groove top plate 2, a push groove box body 3, a box body upper cover plate 4, a bottom plate 5, a sliding structure and a pushing structure. The pressing plate 1 is connected to the push groove top plate 2, and the push groove top plate 2, the box body upper cover plate 4 and the bottom plate 5 are respectively connected to the push groove box body 3. One side of the bottom plate 5 is connected to the sliding structure. The shape of the bottom plate 5 can be adjusted according to the flatness between the photovoltaic module and the connector to ensure the fixing effect. The sliding structure and the pushing structure are arranged in the cavity 31 of the push groove box body 3. The push groove box body 3, the box body upper cover plate 4 and the push groove top plate 2 form a complete box structure. The box structure mainly plays the role of protecting the internal structure and increasing its service life. It is also connected to the upper pressing plate 1. The upper pressing plate 1 is tightly fitted with the photovoltaic module to ensure the fixing effect. The bottom of the upper pressing plate 1 is connected to the push groove top plate 2 to form an integral structure, which makes the structural integrity better and enhances the fixing effect. The materials of the upper pressing plate 1, the push groove top plate 2, the push groove box body 3, the box body upper cover plate 4, the bottom plate 5 and the push rod 8 are all made of steel.
[0026] The sliding structure includes a sliding groove base member 6 and a sliding clamping groove 7 . The sliding groove base member 6 is arranged in the cavity 31 of the box body 3 for sliding connection, and the sliding clamping groove 7 is arranged on the top of the sliding groove base member 6 .
[0027] The two sliding slots 7 are symmetrically provided, and the two sliding slots 7 are connected at both ends. A groove A71 is provided at one end of the two sliding slots 7 that are connected, a bend A72 is provided on the side of the sliding slot 7 close to the groove A71, a bend B73 is provided in the middle of the sliding slot 7, and a bend C74 is provided at the other end of the two sliding slots 7 that are connected. The structural shape of the sliding slot 7 can be adjusted as needed.
[0028] The setting of the two sliding slots 7 makes it easy for the sliding button 11 to move toward any one of the sliding slots 7 on both sides, which increases the smoothness of operation. At the same time, the groove A71 is used to fix the position of the sliding button 11 so as to maintain the position of the bottom plate 5 relative to the upper pressure plate 1. The setting of the bend A72 is used to change the direction of movement of the sliding button 11, and the bend B73 is used to guide the sliding button 11 to slide toward the bend C74.
[0029] The pushing structure includes a pushing rod 8, an elastic member 9 and a button connecting rod 10. The pushing rod 8 passes through one side of the pushing groove box 3 for sliding connection and extends into the cavity 31 to be connected to one side of the sliding groove base member 6 of the sliding structure. The elastic member 9 is placed in the cavity 31 and is connected to the other side of the sliding groove base member 6 of the sliding structure through the bottom plate 5. The elastic member 9 can be a spring. One end of the button connecting rod 10 is connected to the pushing groove top plate 2, and the other end of the button connecting rod 10 is connected to the sliding slot 7 of the sliding structure.
[0030] Sliding buttons 11 are set at both ends of the button connecting rod 10, one end of the button connecting rod 10 is hinged to the push groove top plate 2 through the button connecting rod 10, and the other end of the button connecting rod 10 is connected to the sliding slot 7 of the sliding structure through the sliding button 11. The sliding button 11 is placed in the sliding slot 7 for sliding connection, and the button connecting rod 10 is rotatably connected to the sliding button 11. The sliding button 11 is circular.
[0031] The pressing plate 1 includes a right-angle clamping plate 101 and a fixed pressing plate 102. Both ends of the fixed pressing plate 102 are connected to the right-angle clamping plate 101, and the fixed pressing plate 102 is connected to the push groove top plate 2. The size of the pressing plate 1 can be adjusted according to the conditions of the photovoltaic module.
[0032] The length of the bottom plate 5 is greater than the width of the push groove box 3 , and both ends of the bottom plate 5 extend out of the push groove box 3 from both sides of the cavity 31 .
[0033] When the present invention is used, the sliding groove base 6 is moved by pressing the push rod 8, and then the button connecting rod 10 is pushed to drive the sliding button 11 located at the bend C74 of the initial position to slide along the sliding card slot 7. Under the elastic force of the elastic member 9 itself, it is compressed, so that the bottom plate 5 moves toward the upper bottom plate 1. At this time, the push rod 8 is released, and its sliding button 11 is fixed in the groove A71 of the sliding card slot 7. The bottom plate 5 and the upper bottom plate 1 clamp and fix the photovoltaic module;
[0034] When the photovoltaic module needs to be released, the push rod 8 is pressed again, and the sliding button 11 returns to the initial bending position C74 under the action of the button connecting rod 10, thereby achieving the dual effects of fixing and releasing.
[0035] The upper pressing plate 1 is used to fit with the frame of the photovoltaic module. Its shape can be adjusted according to the specific situation of the photovoltaic module to ensure a better fixing effect. Even under high wind load or extreme weather, the upper pressing plate 1 and the bottom plate 5 are fixed relative to each other by the sliding structure and the pushing structure. The elastic member 9 cannot be extended or retracted due to being restricted by the sliding structure, thereby forming a reaction force of elastic force, which prevents the bottom plate 5 from moving away from the upper pressing plate 1, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing the photovoltaic module from falling off. In addition, for later maintenance, disassembly and replacement, compared with traditional bolts that become loose during long-term operation and need to be disassembled and replaced, this connector is also convenient to disassemble and replace. You only need to press the push rod again to quickly disassemble and replace it, which can reduce labor costs.
