Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic bracket installation technology, and in particular to an anti-loosening cable clamp for flexible photovoltaic bracket installation. Background Technology

[0002] Cable clamps play a crucial role in the installation of flexible photovoltaic (PV) systems. Firstly, their primary function is to secure and support the PV module cables within the PV system, ensuring the stability and safety of the PV modules. In a flexible PV system, the module cables are the main load-bearing components; the cable clamps effectively connect the modules to the support structure, forming a stable and reliable support system. Secondly, the design and use of the cable clamps also consider preventing displacement due to their own deformation. During the installation of flexible PV systems, the installation quality and precision of the cable clamps are also critical. Installation must ensure accurate positioning and secure connection of the cable clamps, and must be carried out strictly according to design requirements and installation procedures to guarantee the overall stability and power generation efficiency of the PV system.

[0003] Traditional cable clamps for flexible photovoltaic (PV) mounting systems have several drawbacks. First, after installation, they rely solely on the lower edge of the PV panel frame, making the frame susceptible to deformation due to excessive stress, which can lead to clamp detachment. Second, the clamps require fasteners for securing, which consume significant internal space within the PV panel frame, hindering subsequent panel assembly. Therefore, optimization and improvement of traditional flexible PV mounting cable clamps are necessary. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the aforementioned problems in traditional technologies and provide an anti-loosening cable clip for installing flexible photovoltaic brackets.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives and effects, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0006] A flexible photovoltaic (PV) bracket mounting anti-loosening cable clamp is used to connect a PV panel module frame and module cables. The PV panel module frame includes a rectangular frame and a narrow rectangular side extending inward from the lower end of the rectangular frame. The anti-loosening cable clamp includes a main clamp, a gasket, and fasteners. The main clamp consists of an upper clamping plate, a vertical connecting plate, a lower clamping plate, and an arched plate. The lower clamping plate has an arched plate in the middle for supporting the module cables. The plates on both sides of the lower clamping plate serve as a snap-fit ​​plate and a fixing plate, respectively. The upper clamping plate is connected to the edge of the snap-fit ​​plate via the vertical connecting plate. The snap-fit ​​plate, the vertical connecting plate, and the upper clamping plate together form a snap-fit ​​area that facilitates snap-fitting onto the outside of the rectangular frame. The fixing plate and the gasket can be fixed to both sides of the narrow rectangular side by fasteners.

[0007] Furthermore, in the aforementioned anti-loosening cable clamp for installing flexible photovoltaic brackets, the fastener is a rivet or a bolt.

[0008] Furthermore, in the aforementioned anti-loosening clamp for installing flexible photovoltaic brackets, the main clamp has a first fastening hole on the fixing plate portion that cooperates with the fastener.

[0009] Furthermore, in the aforementioned anti-loosening cable clamp for installing flexible photovoltaic brackets, the gasket has a second fastening hole that mates with the fastener.

[0010] Furthermore, in the aforementioned anti-loosening clamp for installing flexible photovoltaic brackets, the gasket is square, round, or elliptical.

[0011] Furthermore, in the aforementioned anti-loosening cable clamp for installing flexible photovoltaic brackets, the rectangular narrow side of the photovoltaic panel assembly frame is provided with a third fastening hole that mates with a fastener.

[0012] Furthermore, in the aforementioned anti-loosening cable clamp for installing flexible photovoltaic brackets, the upper clamping plate, vertical connecting plate, lower clamping plate, and arched plate of the main clamp are an integral structure.

[0013] Furthermore, in the aforementioned anti-loosening clamp for installing flexible photovoltaic brackets, the main clamp is a sheet metal part.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] The anti-loosening cable clamp structure provided by this utility model has a reasonable design, which includes a main clamp, a gasket, and fasteners. The main clamp consists of an upper clamping plate, a vertical connecting plate, a lower clamping plate, and an arched plate. The snap-fit ​​plate of the lower clamping plate, the vertical connecting plate, and the upper clamping plate together form a snap-fit ​​area, which is used to achieve a snap-fit ​​connection between the anti-loosening cable clamp and the rectangular frame of the photovoltaic panel module. The fixing plate of the lower clamping plate and the gasket are respectively fixed to both sides of the rectangular narrow side of the photovoltaic panel module frame by fasteners. The arched plate in the middle of the lower clamping plate supports the module cable and tightly abuts the module cable against the lower side of the rectangular narrow side of the photovoltaic panel module frame. In this way, the anti-loosening cable clamp can reliably connect the photovoltaic panel module frame and the module cable, while the fastener occupies less internal space of the photovoltaic panel module frame, which is beneficial to the subsequent assembly of the photovoltaic panel.

The lower clamping plate 103 is located on both sides of the arched plate 104, and the plates serve as the snap-fit ​​plate and the fixing plate, respectively. The edge of the snap-fit ​​plate is connected to the upper clamping plate 101 by the vertical connecting plate 102. The snap-fit ​​plate, the vertical connecting plate 102 and the upper clamping plate 101 together form a snap-fit ​​area that is easy to snap onto the outside of the rectangular frame 401. The fixing plate and the gasket 2 can be fixed to both sides of the narrow side of the rectangle 402 by fasteners 3.

[0029] In this embodiment, the fastener 3 is a rivet, which fixes the fixing plate and the washer 2 to the lower and upper sides of the rectangular narrow side 402 respectively by riveting.

[0030] In this embodiment, the main clamp 1 has a first fastening hole 105 on the fixed plate portion that cooperates with the fastener 3.

[0031] In this embodiment, the gasket 2 has a second fastening hole 201 that mates with the fastener 3.

[0032] In this embodiment, the gasket 2 is square, round, or elliptical.

[0033] In this embodiment, the rectangular narrow side 402 of the photovoltaic panel assembly frame 4 is provided with a third fastening hole that cooperates with the fastener 3.

[0034] In this embodiment, the upper clamping plate 101, the vertical connecting plate 102, the lower clamping plate 103, and the arched plate 104 in the main clamp 1 are an integral structure.

[0035] In this embodiment, the main clamp 1 is a sheet metal part.

[0036] The specific application of this embodiment is as follows: This anti-loosening cable clamp includes a main clamp 1, a gasket 2, and a fastener 3. The main clamp 1 is composed of an upper clamping plate 101, a vertical connecting plate 102, a lower clamping plate 103, and an arched plate 104. The snap-fit ​​plate of the lower clamping plate 103, the vertical connecting plate 102, and the upper clamping plate 101 together form a snap-fit ​​area, which is used to achieve snap-fit ​​connection between the anti-loosening cable clamp and the rectangular frame 401 in the photovoltaic panel assembly frame 4.
