[0024] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a novel lightweight photovoltaic (PV) support includes a base plate 1 with several fixing bolts 101 passing through it. It also includes a support plate 3, a lifting mechanism 2, and a fixing mechanism 4. The lifting mechanism 2 is connected to the upper part of the base plate 1 and is used to control the height of the PV panel. The horizontally arranged support plate 3 is rotatably mounted on the upper end of the lifting mechanism 2 to support and place the PV panel. The fixing mechanism 4 is connected to the support plate 3 and is used to clamp and fix the PV panel. The fixing mechanism 4 includes a motor. 401, screw 404, and clamping plate 405. The motor 401 is fixed to the lower end of the support plate 3. The output end of the motor 401 is fixed to a first bevel gear 402. The first bevel gear 402 is symmetrically meshed with second bevel gears 403 on both sides. One end of the screw 404 is fixed to the second bevel gear 403. The clamping plate 405 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the support plate 3 and perpendicular to it. A horizontal connecting pipe 406 is fixed to one side of the clamping plate 405. The connecting pipe 406 is threaded to the other end of the screw 404, and the two are coaxial.
[0025] like Figure 3 , 4As shown, to improve the stability of the clamping plate 405 extending on both sides of the support plate 3, and thus improve the stability of the clamping plate 405 clamping the photovoltaic panel, the support plate 3 is provided with a toothed groove 301. The first bevel gear 402 and the second bevel gear 403 are both rotatably connected in the toothed groove 301. The toothed groove 301 is symmetrically provided with sliding grooves 302 on the left and right sides. The sliding grooves 302 extend straight to the edge of the support plate 3. The screw 404 and the connecting pipe 406 both move within the sliding grooves 302 that are adapted to them. The inner wall of the 02 ring array is provided with several first limiting grooves 303. The outer periphery of the connecting pipe 406 is fixedly connected to a first limiting block 407. The first limiting block 407 is slidably connected to the first limiting groove 303. The upper part of the support plate 3 is also provided with a second limiting groove 304 near its front and rear ends. The clamping plate 405 is symmetrically fixedly connected to a horizontal limiting rod 408. The free end of the limiting rod 408 is fixedly connected to a second limiting block 409. The second limiting block 409 is slidably adapted to the second limiting groove 304.
[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, in order to adjust the height of the support plate 3 and thus the height of the installed photovoltaic panel, the lifting mechanism 2 includes a hydraulic rod 203, an outer shell 201, and an inner shell 202. The outer shell 201 is fixed to the upper end of the base plate 1, and the inner shell 202 is slidably connected inside the outer shell 201. The hydraulic rod 203 is disposed in the outer shell 201 and the inner shell 202. The lower end of the hydraulic rod 203 is fixed to the outer shell 201, and the upper end of the hydraulic rod 203 is fixed to the inner shell 202.
[0027] like Figure 1 , 5 As shown, a connecting shell 305 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the support plate 3. The motor 401 is located inside the connecting shell 305. First bolts 306 are symmetrically fixed to both sides of the connecting shell 305. A connecting frame 204 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the inner shell 202. The connecting frame 204 is rotatably connected to the first bolts 306 on both sides of the connecting shell 305. The angle of the support plate 3 can be adjusted by the connecting frame 204 and the connecting shell 305. Each of the first bolts 306 is threaded with a fixing ring 307. The angle of the support plate 3 is fixed by the fixing ring 307.
[0028] In use, this utility model uses fixing bolts 101 to fix the mounting point of the base plate 1. Based on the size of the photovoltaic panel, the output end of the motor 401 drives the first bevel gear 402 to rotate, which in turn drives the second bevel gear 403 to rotate, which in turn drives the screw 404 to rotate, causing the connecting pipe 406 to slide within the slide groove 302. Simultaneously, the first limiting block 407 slides and limits the movement within the first limiting groove 303, and the second limiting block 409 slides and limits the movement within the second limiting groove 304, together improving the stability of the connecting pipe 406 sliding within the slide groove 302. The connecting pipe 406 and the second limiting block... The limiting rod 408 on 409 drives the clamping plate 405 to move, thereby clamping and fixing the photovoltaic panel onto the support plate 3. The first bolt 306 on the connecting shell 305 is rotatably connected to the connecting frame 204, allowing the support plate 3 to be rotated to adjust the angle of the photovoltaic panel. After the angle adjustment is completed, the fixing ring 307 is rotated to press and tighten it against both sides of the connecting frame 204, thus fixing the connecting shell 305. The hydraulic rod 203 drives the inner shell 202 to slide and rise within the outer shell 201, thereby driving the connecting frame 204 to rise and fall, thus adjusting the height of the photovoltaic panel.
[0029] In summary: In this embodiment of the utility model, the photovoltaic panel can be installed after the bracket is connected to the installation point via the base plate 1. The bracket fixing method is simple and convenient. The photovoltaic panel is clamped on the support plate 3 by the fixing mechanism 4, which is convenient for installation and disassembly. The support height of the installed photovoltaic panel can be adjusted by the lifting mechanism 2. The angle of the photovoltaic panel can be adjusted by the connection between the connecting shell 305 and the connecting frame 204, and the fixing screw ring 307 can be used to achieve fixation after angle adjustment.
