[0002] Photovoltaic power generation technology, based on the fundamental principle of the photovoltaic effect, cleverly utilizes solar cell modules to achieve the goal of directly and efficiently converting abundant solar energy into electrical energy. Theoretically, this technology has wide applicability and can serve any scenario that needs power supply, demonstrating its enormous potential as a clean energy solution.

[0003] However, in practical applications, especially when facing photovoltaic projects in mountainous areas and photovoltaic module installation operations in areas with complex and uneven terrain, the installation tools currently available on the market exhibit significant differences in quality and limitations in adaptability. In particular, in these special environments, setting up traditional scaffolding is not only extremely difficult but also costly, which seriously restricts the efficient progress of installation operations and greatly reduces the work efficiency and safety of construction workers. Therefore, a support device for photovoltaic module installation is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide a support device for installing photovoltaic modules to solve or alleviate the technical problems existing in the prior art, and at least provide a beneficial option.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model embodiment is implemented as follows: A support device for installing photovoltaic modules includes a support assembly, which includes a support mesh plate, a plurality of inclined support rods, a working platform, a guardrail, a plurality of stabilizing support blocks, and a plurality of hanging mechanisms. The working platform is disposed on the rear surface of the support mesh plate, and the lower surface of the guardrail is disposed on the upper surface of the working platform. The guardrail is disposed on the rear surface of the support mesh plate. The upper surfaces of the inclined support rods are uniformly disposed on the lower surface of the working platform, and the lower surfaces of the plurality of inclined support rods are uniformly disposed on the rear surface of the support mesh plate. The plurality of stabilizing support blocks and the plurality of hanging mechanisms are uniformly disposed on the front surface of the support mesh plate.

[0006] In some embodiments, the affixing mechanism includes a Z-shaped connecting block, a limiting block, a pull rope, and a spring. The Z-shaped connecting block is disposed on the front surface of the supporting mesh plate, and a movable through groove is formed on the lower surface of the Z-shaped connecting block. The outer wall of the limiting block is slidably connected to the inner wall of the movable through groove, and a circular through hole is formed on the inner top wall of the movable through groove. One end of the pull rope passes through the circular through hole and is disposed on the upper surface of the limiting block. The top end of the spring is disposed on the inner top wall of the movable through groove, and the bottom end of the spring is disposed on the upper surface of the limiting block. The pull rope passes through the spring.

[0007] In some embodiments, the lower surface of the Z-shaped connecting block is uniformly embedded with a first steel ball.

[0008] In some embodiments, a second steel ball is uniformly embedded in the inner wall of the circular through hole, and the second steel ball is in contact with the pull rope.

[0009] In some embodiments, the outer wall of the stabilizing support block is provided with a rubber layer.

[0010] In some embodiments, the inner wall of the movable channel is uniformly provided with sliding grooves, and the outer wall of the limiting block is uniformly provided with sliders, the outer wall of the sliders being slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding grooves.

[0011] The present invention has the following advantages due to the adoption of the above technical solution:

[0012] This invention places a pull rope on a photovoltaic frame, then mounts the rope on a winch. The pull rope pulls a limiting block into a movable slot, causing the limiting block to move upward, which in turn moves a Z-shaped connecting block upward. The Z-shaped connecting block then moves the supporting mesh, inclined support rod, working platform, guardrail, and stabilizing support block upward. Once the Z-shaped connecting block is on the photovoltaic frame and in contact with it, the winch releases the pull rope, and the elastic potential energy of the spring moves the limiting block downward to fix the Z-shaped connecting block to the photovoltaic frame. This significantly reduces construction difficulty, avoids the complexity and high cost of traditional scaffolding, and can adapt to various complex terrains and climate conditions, providing strong support for the installation of photovoltaic modules and thus significantly enhancing stability.

[0025] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] like Figures 1-6 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a support device for photovoltaic module installation, including a support component 1. The support component 1 includes a support mesh plate 10, a plurality of inclined support rods 11, a working platform 12, a guardrail 13, a plurality of stabilizing support blocks 14, and a plurality of hanging mechanisms 15. The working platform 12 is disposed on the rear surface of the support mesh plate 10, and the lower surface of the guardrail 13 is disposed on the upper surface of the working platform 12. The guardrail 13 is disposed on the rear surface of the support mesh plate 10. The upper surfaces of the inclined support rods 11 are uniformly disposed on the lower surface of the working platform 12, and the lower surfaces of the plurality of inclined support rods 11 are uniformly disposed on the rear surface of the support mesh plate 10. The plurality of stabilizing support blocks 14 and the plurality of hanging mechanisms 15 are uniformly disposed on the front surface of the support mesh plate 10.

[0027] In this embodiment, specifically, the hanging mechanism 15 includes a Z-shaped connecting block 150, a limiting block 151, a pull rope 152, and a spring 153. The Z-shaped connecting block 150 is disposed on the front surface of the supporting mesh plate 10, and a movable through groove 3 is formed on the lower surface of the Z-shaped connecting block 150. The outer wall of the limiting block 151 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the movable through groove 3, and a circular through hole 7 is formed on the inner top wall of the movable through groove 3. One end of the pull rope 152 passes through the circular through hole 7 and is disposed on the upper surface of the limiting block 151. The top end of the spring 153 is disposed on the inner top wall of the movable through groove 3, and the bottom end of the spring 153 is disposed on the upper surface of the limiting block 151. The pull rope 152 passes through the spring 153. With the above arrangement, relevant personnel can pull the rope... 152 is placed on the photovoltaic frame. Then, relevant personnel set the pull rope 152 on the winch. The pull rope 152 pulls the limit block 151 to move into the movable through slot 3, so that the limit block 151 drives the Z-shaped connecting block 150 to move upward. The Z-shaped connecting block 150 drives the support mesh plate 10, the inclined support rod 11, the working platform 12, the guardrail 13 and the stabilizing support block 14 to move upward. After the Z-shaped connecting block 150 moves onto the photovoltaic frame, the stabilizing support block 14 comes into contact with the photovoltaic frame. Then, the pull rope 152 is released by the winch. The elastic potential energy of the spring 153 drives the limit block 151 to move downward to fix the Z-shaped connecting block 150 onto the photovoltaic frame.

[0028] In this embodiment, specifically, the lower surface of the Z-shaped connecting block 150 is uniformly embedded with the first steel ball 4. With the above arrangement, the Z-shaped connecting block 150 moves to the photovoltaic frame via the first steel ball 4.

[0029] In this embodiment, specifically, the inner wall of the circular through hole 7 is uniformly embedded with a second steel ball 8, and the second steel ball 8 is in contact with the pull rope 152. The second steel ball 8 is used to assist the pull rope 152 in sliding within the circular through hole 7.

[0030] In this embodiment, specifically, the outer wall of the stabilizing support block 14 is provided with a rubber layer 2, which is used to enhance the friction between the stabilizing support block 14 and the photovoltaic frame.

[0031] In this embodiment, specifically, the inner wall of the movable through groove 3 is uniformly provided with sliding grooves 5, and the outer wall of the limiting block 151 is uniformly provided with sliders 6. The outer wall of the slider 6 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 5. By the above arrangement, the slider 6 can slide in the sliding groove 5, which can both assist the limiting block 151 to move and stabilize the position of the limiting block 151.

[0032] In operation, the present invention works as follows: personnel place the pull rope 152 on the photovoltaic frame, and then set the pull rope 152 on the winch. The pull rope 152 pulls the limiting block 151 into the movable through slot 3, causing the limiting block 151 to move upward, which in turn moves the Z-shaped connecting block 150 upward. The Z-shaped connecting block 150 then moves the supporting mesh plate 10, the inclined support rod 11, the working platform 12, the guardrail 13, and the stabilizing support block 14 upward. After the Z-shaped connecting block 150 moves onto the photovoltaic frame, it moves onto the photovoltaic frame via the first steel ball 4, causing the stabilizing support block 14 to contact the photovoltaic frame. Then, the pull rope 152 is released by the winch, and the elastic potential energy of the spring 153 causes the limiting block 151 to move downward to fix the Z-shaped connecting block 150 onto the photovoltaic frame.

[0033] When it is necessary to remove the support mesh panel 10, inclined support rod 11, working platform 12, guardrail 13, and stabilizing support block 14 from the photovoltaic frame, relevant personnel use a winch to pull the pull rope 152. The pull rope 152 pulls the limiting block 151 to move into the movable through slot 3, causing the limiting block 151 to move upward, which in turn moves the Z-shaped connecting block 150 upward. The Z-shaped connecting block 150 then moves the support mesh panel 10, inclined support rod 11, working platform 12, guardrail 13, and stabilizing support block 14 upward. Afterward, relevant personnel pull the support mesh panel 10, inclined support rod 11, working platform 12, and guardrail 13 outward, thus facilitating the removal of the support mesh panel 10, inclined support rod 11, working platform 12, and guardrail 13 from the photovoltaic frame.

[0034] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various variations or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, and these should all be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
