Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of photovoltaic bracket technology, specifically a photovoltaic bracket that is easy to install. Background Technology

[0002] Photovoltaic (PV) mounting systems are a crucial component for installing solar photovoltaic (PV) modules. They support and secure the modules, ensuring their stability on the ground, roof, or other suitable locations to maximize solar radiation absorption and conversion into electricity. PV mounting systems must withstand the weight of the modules and the elements, including wind and rain. Therefore, easily installed PV mounting systems possess excellent structural strength and stability to ensure the safe operation of the PV modules. Currently, commercially available PV mounting systems require tools for assembly, making the installation process relatively complex, reducing efficiency, hindering smooth installation, and increasing the workload for workers.

[0003] Chinese patent CN219893222U discloses a photovoltaic support system, including a base with two seat rods connected and fixed by two connecting rods. A pile rod is hinged to the left end of the seat rod's top, and two displacement members are movably connected to the surface of the pile rod. A web member assembly is movably connected to the right end of the seat rod's top, and the top of the web member assembly is movably connected to the pile rod. A support assembly is provided on the left end of the pile rod's top. This device supports the pile rod by adjusting the length of the support shaft inside the outer shaft cylinder. A reinforcing component is installed between the support shaft and the concrete pier. This allows the inner screw rod to move relative to each other and adjust to a suitable length to provide force support to the support shaft, forming a triangular stable structure between the support shaft, outer shaft cylinder, and seat rods. This reduces the load at the connection between the support shaft and the pile rod, lowering the probability of cracking at the connection. However, the photovoltaic support system in the aforementioned publication mainly focuses on improving the strength of the connection, but its installation efficiency is not ideal.

[0004] In view of the above, this utility model is hereby proposed. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0029] The following description provides many different embodiments or examples for implementing various features of the present invention. The elements and arrangements described in the specific examples below are only for concise expression of the present invention and are merely examples, not intended to limit the present invention.

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0031] This embodiment provides a photovoltaic mounting bracket that is easy to install, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, it includes a base frame 1, an L-shaped support frame 2, a horizontal support 3, and a photovoltaic panel frame 4, located at opposite ends of the base frame 1. A horizontal connecting hole is provided on the base frame 1 (this structure is not shown in the figure); a connecting groove 5 is provided on the base frame 1 above the two horizontal connecting holes.

[0032] The two connecting slots 5 are respectively connected to one end of the two L-shaped support frames 2, and the other end of the two L-shaped support frames 2 are connected to the horizontal support 3;

[0033] Both of the connecting holes are connected to the connecting parts 41 of the photovoltaic panel frame 4, and the supporting parts 42 of the photovoltaic panel frame 4 are connected to the horizontal support 3.

[0034] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the photovoltaic panel frame 4 includes a connecting part 41, a supporting part 42 and a connecting plate 43. The connecting part 41 and the supporting part 42 are both connected to the connecting plate 43, and the connecting part 41 and the supporting part 42 are arranged in a V-shape.

[0035] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2As shown, the support part 42 includes multiple support rods, one end of which is connected to the connecting plate 43, and the other end of which is connected to the horizontal support 3.

[0036] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the multiple support rods are evenly arranged; "evenly arranged" should be understood as meaning that the spacing between adjacent support rods is equal. This structure provides uniform support to the photovoltaic panels when connected, preventing uneven stress on the photovoltaic support structure and improving its stability.

[0037] To improve the stability of the L-shaped support frame 2, the horizontal support 3, and the photovoltaic panel frame 4 after connection, thereby increasing the supporting force on the photovoltaic panel, in some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the L-shaped support frame 2 includes a horizontal connecting part 21 and a vertical connecting part 22. One end of the horizontal connecting part 21 is connected to the connecting plate 43, the middle part is connected to the connecting groove 5, and the other end is connected to one end of the vertical connecting part 22. The other end of the vertical connecting part 22 is connected to the horizontal support 3.

[0038] Before installation, such as Figure 2 As shown, the L-shaped support frame 2, the horizontal support 3, and the photovoltaic panel frame 4 are first connected to form an integral support frame structure; during installation, as... Figure 1 As shown, align the connecting part 41 with the connecting hole, and simultaneously align the transverse connecting part 21 of the L-shaped support frame 2 with the connecting groove 5. Then, push the support frame structure in the direction of the arrow in the figure so that the connecting part 41 enters the connecting hole, and at the same time, allow the transverse connecting part 21 to slide in the connecting groove 5; until the support frame structure can no longer be pushed, and then fix the connecting part 41 to the base frame 1 with bolts 8.

[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, a cleaning mechanism 6 is provided on the horizontal support 3, which is used to clean the photovoltaic panels connected to the support part 42.

[0040] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the cleaning mechanism 6 includes a guide rod 61, a slider 62, a support structure 63, a brush 64, and a first groove 65 disposed on the horizontal support 3. The guide rod 61 is disposed within the first groove 65, and both ends of the guide rod 61 are fixedly connected to the horizontal support 3. The slider 62 is slidably connected to the guide rod 61, and the slider 62 is connected to the support structure 63. The support structure 63 is connected to the brush 64. The slider 62 slides on the guide rod 61 to allow the brush 64 to clean the photovoltaic panel. This cleaning mechanism 6 has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and has low cost.

[0041] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the cleaning mechanism 6 further includes a drive block 66, a drive rod 67, and a second sliding groove 68 that passes through the horizontal support 3. The drive rod 67 is disposed within the second sliding groove 68, and its two ends are respectively connected to the slider 62 and the drive block 66. The drive block 66 is located outside the second sliding groove 68. This structure allows the slider 62 to slide via the drive block 66, offering advantages such as convenient operation and low labor intensity.

[0042] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the cleaning mechanism 6 also includes a locking bolt 69, which passes through the drive block 66, drive rod 67, and slider 62 in sequence and abuts against the guide rod 61. With this structure, when the brush 64 is not used for cleaning, it can be fixed to one side of the photovoltaic panel, preventing the brush 64 from sliding during use and thus reducing the utilization rate of the photovoltaic panel.

[0043] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the base frame 1 is provided with support legs 7.

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the stated features.
