For ease of description, the directions mentioned below are defined as follows: the directions of up, down, left, right, front, and back mentioned below are the same as... Figure 1 The projection relationship is consistent in the up, down, left, right, front, and back directions. This utility model provides a photovoltaic module installation bracket that is adaptable to various terrains. It includes four bodies 15, which are assembled into a whole. A base assembly is provided on the top of the body 15. A side bracket 21 is provided on one side of the body 15. A connecting rod 31 is hinged to the bottom of the side bracket 21. A telescopic rod 28 is provided inside the connecting rod 31. An adjustment component for swinging and adjusting the connecting rod 31 is provided inside the side bracket 21. A telescopic component for sliding the telescopic rod 28 is provided inside the connecting rod 31.

[0022] Advantageously, the body 15 is provided with a first mounting cavity 13, the first mounting cavity 13 is provided with a through hole, and fasteners are provided in the through hole to connect and fix multiple bodies 15.

[0023] Advantageously, inclined surfaces are provided on both sides of the body 15, and adjacent bodies 15 are connected by the inclined surfaces abutting each other.

[0024] Advantageously, the base assembly includes a top seat 11, which has multiple first mounting cavities 13. A stud 12 is provided on the top of the body 15. The stud 12 passes through the top seat 11 and enters the first mounting cavity 13. A nut 14 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the stud 12. The nut 14 abuts against the lower end wall of the first mounting cavity 13, so that the top seat 11 is fixedly mounted on the upper side of the body 15.

[0025] Advantageously, the adjusting assembly includes a first threaded shaft 22 rotatably disposed within a side bracket 21, a bearing seat 24 disposed on one side of the side bracket 21, the bearing seat 24 being rotatably connected to the first threaded shaft 22, an internal threaded block 26 disposed within the side bracket 21, a guide rail 25 disposed within the side bracket 21, the guide rail 25 being slidably connected to the internal threaded block 26, the first threaded shaft 22 passing through the internal threaded block 26, the first threaded shaft 22 being threadedly connected to the internal threaded block 26, and a connecting rod structure being disposed between the internal threaded block 26 and the connecting rod 31.

[0026] Advantageously, a rotating wheel 23 is provided on one side of the first threaded shaft 22.

[0027] Advantageously, the connecting rod structure includes a hinge seat 29 disposed on the top side of the connecting rod 31, and a swing rod 27 is disposed between the hinge seat 29 and the internal thread block 26. The swing rod 27 is rotatably connected to the hinge seat 29 and the internal thread block 26.

[0028] Advantageously, the telescopic assembly includes a groove 42 disposed in the connecting rod 31, a second threaded shaft 41 rotatably disposed in the groove 42, an inner cavity 43 disposed in the telescopic rod 28, the second threaded shaft 41 passes through the telescopic rod 28 and enters the inner cavity 43, and the second threaded shaft 41 is threadedly connected to the telescopic rod 28.

[0029] Advantageously, the telescopic rod 28 is provided with a second mounting cavity 44, which can be used to install fasteners to connect and fix it to the ground, so that the entire equipment is completely fixed to the ground.

[0030] Advantageously, a handwheel 32 is provided on one side of the second threaded shaft 41.

[0031] After the photovoltaic panel is installed on one side of the top seat 11, the operator can rotate the first threaded shaft 22 by rotating the rotating wheel 23, which in turn causes the internal threaded block 26 to slide along the guide rail 25. Since the swing rod 27 is hinged between the internal threaded block 26 and the hinge seat 29, the connecting rod 31 swings relative to the machine body 15. Alternatively, the operator can rotate the handwheel 32 to drive the second threaded shaft 41 to rotate. Since the telescopic rod 28 is threadedly connected to the second threaded shaft 41, the telescopic rod 28 will extend and retract within the connecting rod 31.

[0032] Based on the terrain, by adjusting the swing angle of the connecting rod 31 and the extension and retraction of the telescopic rod 28, the telescopic rod 28 can be placed stably on uneven ground, so that the body 15 can be kept as horizontal as possible.

[0033] During this process, the positions of the telescopic rod 28 and the connecting rod 31 can be adjusted individually to make the body 15 and the top seat 11 tilted, making it easier to place the entire equipment on the slope. For example, two adjacent connecting rods 31 and telescopic rods 28 can be adjusted to a lower position, and then the other two connecting rods 31 and telescopic rods 28 can be adjusted to a higher position, so that the body 15 and the top seat 11 have a height difference, and the top seat 11 and the body 15 are tilted.

[0034] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions conceived without creative effort should be included within the protection scope of this utility model; therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
