[0019] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs; the terminology used herein in the specification of the application is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application; the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, in the specification, claims, and foregoing drawings of this application are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, or foregoing drawings of this application are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a particular order.

[0020] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0021] This utility model embodiment provides a novel double-sided glass hollow BIPV module, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the system includes a front glass panel 1. Solar cells 9 are connected to the rear side of the front glass panel 1 near the top and bottom. Assembly plates 10 are connected to the adjacent sides of the two solar cells 9 near the left and right sides. Two locking holes are opened near the center of the inner cavity of the two assembly plates 10 on the side away from the center of the inner cavity of the front glass panel 1. The rear sides of the two assembly plates 10 and the two solar cells 9 are connected to a rear glass panel 11. A protective frame 2 is fitted on both the front glass panel 1 and the rear glass panel 11. The protective frame 2 is provided with locking components 3 on the left and right sides. Each locking component 3 includes a connecting box 31. The two connecting boxes 31 are symmetrically arranged with the center of the inner cavity of the protective frame 2 as the axis of symmetry. The adjacent sides of the two connecting boxes 31 are connected to the left and right sides of the protective frame 2 near the center.

[0022] It should be noted that, due to the cumbersome disassembly and assembly of the protective frame and BIPV module in existing double-sided glass hollow BIPV modules, and the fixed angle that cannot be adjusted, this solution addresses the problems encountered during the use of existing double-sided glass hollow BIPV modules by adding locking components 3 on both sides of the protective frame 2 and using the cooperation of various components on the top of the protective frame 2.

[0023] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1-4As shown, guide rods 34 are connected to the inner walls of the two connecting boxes 31 on the side away from the center of the inner cavity of the protective frame 2, near the center of the upper and lower sides. The two guide rods 34 on the left and right sides are connected to the left and right sides of the protective frame 2 near the center of the upper and lower sides, respectively. The guide plates 36 are sleeved on the two guide rods 34 on the left and right sides near the center of the inner cavity of the protective frame 2. Two locking rods 37 are connected to the adjacent side of the two guide plates 36 near the center. Two movable holes are opened on the left and right sides of the protective frame 2 near the center. The two locking rods 37 on the left and right sides near the center of the inner cavity of the protective frame 2 penetrate the inner cavity of the adjacent movable hole and extend into the inner cavity of the adjacent locking hole.

[0024] In this embodiment, when the worker needs to inspect and maintain the BIPV components inside the protective frame 2, the worker slides the two guide plates 36 on the two adjacent guide rods 34 away from the center of the inner cavity of the protective frame 2. This allows the four locking rods 37 to be pulled out from the adjacent locking holes, thereby releasing the restriction on the BIPV components inside the protective frame 2. This allows the worker to quickly separate the BIPV components from the protective frame 2, facilitating their quick removal from the protective frame 2 for inspection and maintenance. After the maintenance work is completed, the staff places it inside the protective frame 2, ensuring that all four locking holes are on the same horizontal line as the adjacent locking rods 37. At this time, the two adjacent return springs 35 begin to extend outward after the external force disappears, thereby driving the two guide plates 36 to slide on the two adjacent guide rods 34 towards the center of the inner cavity of the protective frame 2. This allows the two guide plates 36 to quickly push the two adjacent locking rods 37 into the adjacent locking holes, thereby limiting the position of the BIPV component and ensuring that it can be firmly assembled with the protective frame 2 for use.

[0025] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and 2 As shown, each of the two connecting boxes 31 is provided with a handle 33 near the center on the side away from the center of the inner cavity of the protective frame 2. Both handles 33 are connected to pull plates 32 at their upper and lower ends. Both connecting boxes 31 are provided with movable openings near the center of the upper and lower sides on the side away from the center of the inner cavity of the protective frame 2. The two pull plates 32 located on the left and right sides are connected to the adjacent movable openings near the center of the inner cavity of the protective frame 2 and are connected to the adjacent guide plates 36 near the center of the upper and lower sides on the side away from the center of the inner cavity of the protective frame 2.

[0026] In this embodiment, the worker holds two handles 33 and pulls them to both sides, so that the two handles 33 can gradually pull the two adjacent pull plates 32 out from the adjacent connecting box 31, thereby driving the two guide plates 36 to slide on the two adjacent guide rods 34 toward the side away from the center of the inner cavity of the protective frame 2.

[0027] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, a return spring 35 is fitted on the two guide rods 34 on the left and right sides at the end away from the center of the inner cavity of the protective frame 2. The two return springs 35 on the left and right sides are respectively connected to the inner wall of the adjacent connecting box 31 on the side away from the center of the inner cavity of the protective frame 2 near the center of the upper and lower sides. The two return springs 35 on the left and right sides are respectively connected to the adjacent guide plate 36 on the side away from the center of the inner cavity of the protective frame 2 near the center of the upper and lower sides.

[0028] In this embodiment, the elastic reset function of several reset springs 35 enables two adjacent reset springs 35 to quickly drive adjacent guide plates 36 to slide on two adjacent guide rods 34.

[0029] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, there is a rotating rod 7 near the center of the top of the protective frame 2. There are connecting ears 8 near the left and right ends of the rotating rod 7. The two connecting ears 8 are symmetrically arranged with the center of the inner cavity of the rotating rod 7 as the axis of symmetry. The bottom of the two connecting ears 8 are respectively connected to the center of the top of the protective frame 2 near the left and right sides. A limiting sleeve is fitted on the rotating rod 7 near the left end. The side wall of the rotating rod 7 is threaded near the left end. A driving hole is opened near the center of the inner cavity of the limiting sleeve. The inner wall of the driving hole is threaded to match the thread of the rotating rod 7.

[0030] In this embodiment, when adjusting the angle of the BIPV component, the operator rotates the limiting sleeve forward to separate it from the left support ear 6, thereby releasing the restriction on the rotating rod 7. The operator then rotates the rotating rod 7 forward, which in turn rotates the two connecting ears 8, causing the two connecting ears 8 to rotate together and thus rotate the protective frame 2 forward. This achieves the purpose of adjusting the angle of the BIPV component fixed inside the protective frame 2, thereby adjusting the area of ​​the BIPV component that receives light, maximizing its effective light-receiving area, increasing energy absorption, avoiding resource waste, and facilitating practical use. After the BIPV component angle is adjusted, the operator rotates the limiting sleeve in the opposite direction to make it contact the left support ear 6, thereby limiting the position of the rotating rod 7 and preventing it from rotating further, thus fixing the angle of the BIPV component.

[0031] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, there are support ears 6 at both ends of the rotating rod 7, and the two support ears 6 are movably connected to the left and right ends of the rotating rod 7 respectively near the center of the front side. A connecting shaft is connected to the right end of the rotating rod 7 near the center. A rotating hole is opened in the inner cavity of the support ear 6 on the right side near the center of the front side. The right end of the connecting shaft passes through the inner cavity of the rotating hole and is connected to the crank handle 4.

[0032] In this embodiment, when the operator rotates the crank 4 in the forward direction, the crank 4 can quickly drive the rotating rod 7 to rotate in the forward direction via the connecting shaft.

[0033] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, a mounting plate 5 is provided on the rear side of both support ears 6. The front side of the mounting plate 5 is connected to the rear side of the adjacent support ears 6 near the center of the left and right sides, and a fixing screw hole is provided in the inner cavity of the mounting plate 5 near the center of the left and right sides.

[0034] In this embodiment, the BIPV assembly is fixed to the building wall by means of a mounting plate 5 connected to the rear side of the two support ears 6, and two fixing screw holes are provided on the mounting plate 5.
