[0033] Figure 7 is a structural diagram of a moving plate according to the embodiment of the utility model.

[0034] Referring to Figure 7 Preferably, in the embodiment, in order to prevent the photovoltaic module 5 from falling during the overturning process, the clamping assembly 3 further comprises a moving plate 35, a driving cylinder 36 and a clamping claw 37.

When the moving plate moves, the moving plate and the connector remain relatively stationary, and the connector moves in the second sliding groove 3721, thereby driving the claw portion 371 to rotate. Thus, the claw portion 371 is arranged outside the longitudinal truss 32 during the overturning of the photovoltaic module 5, and then clamps the two side edges of the photovoltaic module 5. Preferably, each moving plate is provided with a plurality of clamping claws 37, and each clamping claw 37 is arranged on the moving plate in a spaced manner, so that the photovoltaic module 5 remains stable during the overturning.

[0036] In summary, the utility model discloses a clamping assembly and a rotating assembly are matched with each other, so that when the sensing assembly detects that the orientation of the photovoltaic module is wrong, the whole photovoltaic module is overturned in time to correct it.
