Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic power generation metal tile technology, specifically a roof photovoltaic power generation metal tile. Background Technology

[0002] Against the backdrop of growing global energy demand and increasing environmental protection pressures, photovoltaic (PV) power generation technology is gaining increasing attention due to its clean and sustainable characteristics. Simultaneously, the construction industry is seeking innovative materials to meet requirements for energy self-sufficiency and environmental protection. In this context, photovoltaic metal tiles, which combine photovoltaic panels with metal roofing, have emerged. On one hand, the continuous development of PV power generation technology, with improved conversion efficiency and reduced costs, makes its integration with building materials possible. On the other hand, traditional metal roofing tiles possess durability, waterproofing, and aesthetic appeal; combining these two elements gives metal roofing tiles new functions, aligning with sustainable development principles, reducing buildings' dependence on traditional energy sources, and lowering carbon emissions. Connectors play a crucial role in this process, ensuring a more stable connection between the PV panels and the metal roofing tiles, thus guaranteeing the reliability of the entire system. Photovoltaic metal roofing tiles mainly consist of three parts: the metal roofing body, connectors, and the PV panels.

[0003] The current assembly of photovoltaic metal roofing tiles requires first laying and installing the metal tile body, and then connecting and fixing the photovoltaic panel to the metal tile body using connectors. The connectors mainly consist of two clamping plates, guide rails, bolts, and corner pieces for connecting the photovoltaic panel. This connector design makes installation more convenient and secure, improving system reliability and stability. By passing the bolts through the clamping plates and tightening them, the corrugations of the metal tile can be clamped and fixed. Then, the bolts at the bottom of the corner pieces are inserted into the guide rails, which can slide and adjust according to the actual position of the photovoltaic panel, accurately positioning the photovoltaic panel to the optimal position to maximize solar energy reception. Through multiple sets of relative connectors, the photovoltaic panel can be fully fixed and limited, ensuring its stability in various environments and preventing displacement or damage due to wind, vibration, or other factors. This provides a new direction for the widespread application of metal roofing tiles and the sustainable development of the construction industry.

[0004] The existing photovoltaic metal tiles have certain drawbacks in assembly. When assembling existing photovoltaic metal tiles, they are connected to the metal tile body through connectors. First, the two side clips need to be aligned with the corrugated part of the metal tile. Then, the bolts are passed through the guide rail and tightened. After that, the bolts at the bottom of the corner pieces are tightened to form a large pressure and friction between the bolts and the guide rail to achieve fixation and limitation. This assembly method is not only complicated to operate, but the fixing effect is not very stable, which brings many inconveniences to the installation work. Utility Model Content

[0005] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a roof photovoltaic power generation metal tile to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a roof photovoltaic power generation metal tile, comprising a photovoltaic power generation metal tile body, wherein the photovoltaic power generation metal tile body is composed of a metal tile body, a photovoltaic panel, corrugated tiles and connectors, wherein the photovoltaic panel is located on the upper surface of the metal tile body, and connectors are installed at the four corners of the lower surface of the photovoltaic panel, and the bottom end of the connectors is connected to the corrugated tiles;

[0007] The connector includes two sets of clamping plates fixedly installed on the upper surface of the corrugated board. A traction block is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the top of each set of clamping plates, and an installation block is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the top of each set of clamping plates. A guide rail is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the installation block. A sliding groove is formed on the upper surface of the guide rail. A slider is slidably connected inside the sliding groove. An installation cavity is formed inside the slider. A sealing cover is installed at the opening of the installation cavity by bolts. A moving block is slidably connected to the middle position inside the installation cavity. A lead screw is threaded through the middle position of the outer wall of the sealing cover on the side away from the slider, and the lead screw is threadedly connected to the moving block. Two sets of locking rods are symmetrically threaded through the outer walls on both sides of the slider, and one end of each set of locking rods contacts the moving block. An angle plate is rotatably connected to the upper surface of the slider.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the middle position of the two clamping pieces is first aligned with the corrugation of the photovoltaic metal tile and fastened. Then, the bidirectional threaded rod is twisted to drive the two sets of traction blocks to move outward, so that the two clamping pieces on both sides rotate and clamp the corrugation, eliminating the docking step and improving the disassembly and assembly efficiency. Next, the slider is aligned with the slide groove and inserted. When it is moved to the appropriate position, the screw is twisted to push the moving block. The moving block uses the pressure of the two side clamping rods to extend outward and insert into the slot to quickly fix the slider. The above operation is reversed when disassembling. When the moving block moves, the two sets of magnets attract the clamping rods to retract inward and release the limiting fixation of the slider, so as to quickly fix the slider and corner pieces, further improving the disassembly and assembly efficiency.

[0009] Furthermore, the two sets of clamping pieces are symmetrically arranged, and each clamping piece has a slot at its top end, with the traction block rotatably connected to the inner wall of the slot.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the traction block can work with the bidirectional threaded rod to drive the two sets of clamping plates to rotate in opposite directions around the shaft, thereby achieving rapid fixation of the connector and the corrugated parts.

[0011] Furthermore, two sets of shafts are symmetrically fixed on the outer wall of the top of the clamping piece at the position below the traction block, and the two sets of shafts are rotatably connected to the mounting block. A filling pad is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the two sets of clamping pieces on the side closest to each other. A bidirectional threaded rod is threadedly connected to the middle position of the two sets of traction blocks, and a first internal hexagonal nut is fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional threaded rod.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the filling pad is made of soft rubber, which can fill the gap between the clip and the corrugation, increase the bonding surface, and at the same time play a buffering role to prevent the clip and the corrugation from making hard contact and causing scratches on the photovoltaic metal tile body.

[0013] Furthermore, threaded holes with corresponding thread directions are provided at the contact positions of the two sets of traction blocks and the outer walls on both sides of the bidirectional threaded rod. Multiple sets of slots are symmetrically provided on the inner walls on both sides of the slide groove. One end of the moving block penetrates the outer wall of the slider. Both outer walls of the moving block are inclined surfaces. The end of the locking rod near the moving block is a pointed conical inclined surface.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, multiple sets of slots can work with the extended locking rods to quickly fix and limit the slider. The contact surfaces of the moving block and the locking rods are both inclined surfaces, which can ensure that the locking rods on both sides can be smoothly pushed outward when the moving block moves.

[0015] Furthermore, a corresponding screw hole is provided at the contact position between the moving block and the lead screw, and a second internal hexagonal nut is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one end of the lead screw. Magnets are embedded in the contact positions between the moving block and the two sets of clamps, and magnets with opposite magnetic poles are embedded in the contact positions between the clamps and the moving block.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, a corresponding screw hole is opened at the contact position between the moving block and the lead screw, which can drive the moving block to move when the lead screw rotates. Both the second internal hex nut and the first internal hex nut can facilitate the operator to install the equipment using tools. Magnets with opposite magnetic poles are embedded at the contact positions between the moving block and the two sets of clamp rods, which can ensure that one end of the clamp rod can always be in contact with the surface of the moving block, so that the moving block can drive the clamp rod to retract inward, thereby releasing the fixation of the slider.

[0017] Furthermore, the slider has through holes of matching size at the contact points with the two sets of locking rods.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, through holes of matching size are opened at the contact positions of the slider and the two sets of clamps to provide space for the clamps to extend.

[0019] Furthermore, the outer wall of the lever near the slot is a smooth curved surface.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the outer wall of the lever near the slot is a smooth curved surface, which can cause the slider to jam with the slot due to the sharp corners, thus improving the smoothness of the device.

[0021] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0022] This invention first aligns the middle positions of the two clamping pieces with the corrugated area on the surface of the metal tile and fastens them. Then, the double-threaded rod is twisted to move the two sets of traction blocks outward, causing the two clamping pieces to rotate and clamp the corrugated area, eliminating the need for a docking step and improving assembly and disassembly efficiency. Next, the slider is aligned with the groove and inserted. When it moves to the appropriate position, the screw is twisted to push the moving block. The moving block uses the pressure of the two clamping rods on both sides to extend outward and insert into the groove to quickly fix the slider. The above operation is reversed during disassembly. When the moving block moves, the clamping rods can be retracted under the attraction of the two sets of magnets to release the limiting fixation of the slider, thereby quickly fixing the slider and corner pieces and further improving assembly and disassembly efficiency.

[0028] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0029] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.

[0030] A type of rooftop photovoltaic metal tile, such as Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, the photovoltaic power generation metal tile body is composed of a metal tile body 1, a photovoltaic panel 3, a corrugated board 11, and a connector 2. The photovoltaic panel 3 is located on the upper surface of the metal tile body 1, and connectors 2 are installed at the four corners of the lower surface of the photovoltaic panel 3, and the bottom end of the connector 2 is connected to the corrugated board 11.

[0031] The connector 2 includes two sets of clamping plates 22 fixedly installed on the upper surface of the corrugated 11. The inner walls of the top of each set of clamping plates 22 are rotatably connected to traction blocks 23, and the outer walls of the top of each set of clamping plates 22 are rotatably connected to mounting blocks 21. The upper surface of the mounting blocks 21 is fixedly connected to a guide rail 25. The upper surface of the guide rail 25 is provided with a sliding groove 251. A slider 26 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 251. The slider 26 is provided with a mounting cavity 261 inside. A sealing cover 262 is installed at the opening of the mounting cavity 261 by bolts. A moving block 27 is slidably connected to the middle position inside the mounting cavity 261. A lead screw 29 is provided through the middle position of the outer wall of the sealing cover 262 away from the slider 26, and the lead screw 29 is threadedly connected to the moving block 27. Two sets of locking rods 28 are symmetrically provided through the outer walls on both sides of the slider 26, and one end of each set of locking rods 28 is in contact with the moving block 27. Angle pieces 2010 are rotatably connected to the upper surface of the slider 26.

[0032] This invention first aligns the middle positions of the two clamping pieces 22 on both sides of the connector 2 with the corrugations 11 on the surface of the metal tile body 1 and fastens them. Then, the bidirectional threaded rod 24 is twisted, and the rotation of the bidirectional threaded rod 24 simultaneously drives the two sets of traction blocks 23 to move outward. At this time, the clamping pieces 22 on both sides rotate simultaneously to quickly clamp and fix the corrugations 11, eliminating the need to align the two sets of clamping pieces 22, thus improving the efficiency of disassembly and assembly. Next, the slider 26 is aligned with the slide groove 251 and inserted. When it is moved to the appropriate position, the screw 29 is twisted to push. The movable block 27 presses the two side levers 28 outward and inserts them into the corresponding slots 2511, thereby quickly fixing the slider 26. When it is necessary to disassemble the entire connector 2, the above operation can be reversed. When the movable block 27 moves, under the mutual attraction of the two sets of magnets at the contact point between the movable block 27 and the levers 28, the movable block 27 can drive the two side levers 28 to retract inward, thereby releasing the limiting fixation of the slider 26. This can achieve quick fixation of the slider 26 and the corner piece 2010, further improving the disassembly and assembly efficiency.

[0033] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 3 The two sets of clamping plates 22 are symmetrically arranged, and each clamping plate 22 has a slot at its top. The traction block 23 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the slot. With the above structure, the traction block 23 can cooperate with the bidirectional threaded rod 24 to drive the two sets of clamping plates 22 to rotate in opposite directions around the shaft 221, thereby achieving rapid fixation of the connector 2 and the corrugated 11.

[0034] Please see Figure 2 - Figure 3Two sets of shafts 221 are symmetrically fixed on the outer wall of the top of the clamping piece 22, located below the traction block 23. The two sets of shafts 221 are rotatably connected to the mounting block 21. A filling pad 222 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the two sets of clamping pieces 22 on the side closest to each other. A double-threaded rod 24 is threadedly connected to the middle position of the two sets of traction blocks 23. A first internal hexagonal nut 241 is fixedly connected to one end of the double-threaded rod 24. With the above structure, the filling pad 222 is made of soft rubber, which can fill the gap between the clamping piece 22 and the corrugated 11, increase the contact surface, and at the same time play a buffering role to prevent the clamping piece 22 from hard contacting the corrugated 11 and causing scratches on the metal tile body 1.

[0035] Please see Figure 2 - Figure 3 Both sets of traction blocks 23 and the outer walls of the bidirectional threaded rod 24 are provided with threaded holes corresponding to the thread direction at their contact positions. Multiple sets of slots 2511 are symmetrically provided on the inner walls of both sides of the slide groove 251. One end of the moving block 27 penetrates the outer wall of the slider 26. Both outer walls of the moving block 27 are inclined. The end of the locking rod 28 near the moving block 27 is a pointed conical inclined surface. By setting the above structure, the multiple sets of slots 2511 can work with the locking rod 28 in the extended state to quickly fix and limit the slider 26. The contact surfaces of the moving block 27 and the locking rod 28 are both inclined, which can ensure that the locking rods 28 on both sides can be smoothly squeezed outward when the moving block 27 moves.

[0036] Please see Figure 2 - Figure 4 The movable block 27 has a corresponding screw hole at the contact position with the lead screw 29. A second internal hex nut 291 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one end of the lead screw 29. Magnets are embedded in the contact positions of the movable block 27 and the two sets of clamping rods 28. Magnets with opposite magnetic poles are embedded in the contact positions of the clamping rods 28 and the movable block 27. With the above structure, the screw hole at the contact position of the movable block 27 and the lead screw 29 can drive the movable block 27 to move when the lead screw 29 rotates. The second internal hex nut 291 and the first internal hex nut 241 can facilitate the operator to install the equipment with tools. The magnets with opposite magnetic poles embedded in the contact positions of the movable block 27 and the two sets of clamping rods 28 can ensure that one end of the clamping rod 28 can always be in contact with the surface of the movable block 27, so that the movable block 27 can drive the clamping rod 28 to retract, thereby releasing the fixation of the slider 26.

[0037] Please see Figure 3 - Figure 4 The slider 26 has through holes of matching size at the contact positions with the two sets of locking rods 28. By setting the above structure, the slider 26 has through holes of matching size at the contact positions with the two sets of locking rods 28, which can provide space for the locking rods 28 to extend.

[0038] Please see Figure 3 - Figure 4 The outer wall of the lever 28 near the slot 2511 is a smooth curved surface. By setting the above structure, the outer wall of the lever 28 near the slot 2511 is a smooth curved surface, which can make the slider 26 jam with the slot 2511 due to the sharp corners, thus improving the smoothness of the equipment.

[0039] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When connecting the metal tile body 1 to the photovoltaic panel 3, the middle position of the two clamping pieces 22 on both sides of the connector 2 should be aligned with the corrugated 11 on the surface of the metal tile body 1 and then the bidirectional threaded rod 24 should be twisted. The rotation of the bidirectional threaded rod 24 will simultaneously drive the two sets of traction blocks 23 to move outward. At this time, the clamping pieces 22 on both sides will rotate simultaneously to quickly clamp and fix the corrugated 11, eliminating the need to connect the two sets of clamping pieces 22 and improving the disassembly and assembly efficiency.

[0040] Next, align the slider 26 with the groove 251 and insert it. When it moves to the appropriate position, twist the screw 29 to push the moving block 27. Use the moving block 27 to squeeze the locking rods 28 on both sides to extend outward and insert into the corresponding locking grooves 2511, thereby quickly fixing the slider 26. When it is necessary to disassemble the entire connecting part 2, the above operation can be reversed.

[0041] When the movable block 27 moves, the two sets of magnets at the contact point between the movable block 27 and the locking rod 28 attract each other, which causes the movable block 27 to retract the locking rods 28 on both sides, thereby releasing the limiting fixation of the slider 26. This allows for the rapid fixation of the slider 26 and the corner piece 2010, further improving the efficiency of disassembly and assembly.

[0042] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, these specific embodiments are merely explanations of the present invention and are not intended to limit the invention. The specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make modifications, substitutions, and variations to the embodiments as needed without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, provided that such modifications, substitutions, and variations are within the scope of the claims of the present invention and are protected by patent law.
