This leads to delays in the installation of solar panels of other sizes, increases labor costs, and reduces the flexibility and adaptability of the installation structure. Therefore, innovation is needed in this technology. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an installation structure for a flexible photovoltaic bracket, so as to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the connector can only install solar panels of a specific size, which will cause delays in the installation process of solar panels of other sizes and increase labor costs.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an installation structure for a flexible photovoltaic bracket, comprising a first connecting ring and a second connecting ring, the second connecting ring being disposed on the top of the first connecting ring, limit blocks being provided on both sides of the first and second connecting rings, a support plate being provided on the top of the second connecting ring, a solar panel being mounted on the top of the support plate, an adjusting rod being provided inside the support plate, adjusting blocks being sleeved on both ends of the adjusting rod, extension plates being provided on both sides of the two adjusting blocks, and clamping plates being provided between the inner walls of two adjacent extension plates.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. This utility model discloses an installation structure for a flexible photovoltaic bracket. By incorporating an adjusting rod, adjusting blocks, an extension plate, clamping plates, auxiliary strips, and auxiliary holes, the bottom surface of the solar panel is tightly fitted to the top of the support plate. Moving the two clamping plates sequentially allows the two adjusting blocks to move at one end of the adjusting rod. The connection of the two extension plates causes the clamping plates to move synchronously, thus adjusting the distance between them. Therefore, the clamping plates can be used to clamp and fix the solar panel according to its size. Bolts further limit the movement between the solar panel and the support plate. After one side of the clamping plate is clamped to one side of the solar panel, the auxiliary strip is embedded into the extension plate and the auxiliary hole. The three are threaded together, thus limiting the movement of the support plate and the clamping plates, thereby improving the applicability of the installation structure.

By setting up a support plate, limiting blocks, screws, and limiting nuts, the first connecting ring and the second connecting ring respectively clamp the two sides of the binding line, so that the four limiting blocks fit together. The screw is inserted between the two limiting blocks, and the limiting nut and the screw are threaded together to limit and fix the first connecting ring and the second connecting ring, thereby further ensuring the stability of the support plate.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution for the installation structure of a flexible photovoltaic bracket:

[0023] Example 1:

[0024] like Figure 1-3As shown, an installation structure for a flexible photovoltaic bracket includes a first connecting ring 1 and a second connecting ring 2. The second connecting ring 2 is located on top of the first connecting ring 1. Limiting blocks 3 are provided on both sides of the first connecting ring 1 and the second connecting ring 2. A support plate 7 is provided on the top of the second connecting ring 2. A solar panel 8 is installed on the top of the support plate 7. An adjusting rod 9 is provided inside the support plate 7. Adjusting blocks 10 are sleeved on both ends of the adjusting rod 9. Extension plates 11 are provided on both sides of the two adjusting blocks 10. Clamping plates 12 are provided between the inner walls of two adjacent extension plates 11. With the connection of the two extension plates 11, the clamping plates 12 will move synchronously, thereby adjusting the distance between the two clamping plates 12. Therefore, the solar panel 8 can be clamped and fixed according to the size of the solar panel 8 using the clamping plates 12. The solar panel 8 and the support plate 7 are further limited by bolts. After one side of the clamping plate 12 is clamped with one side of the solar panel 8, an auxiliary strip 14 is embedded into the extension plate 11 and the auxiliary hole 15. The three are threaded together.

[0025] Example 2:

[0026] Based on Example 1, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, two adjusting blocks 10 are movably sleeved with the two ends of the adjusting rod 9, and auxiliary blocks 13 are provided on one side of each of the four extension plates 11. Multiple auxiliary holes 15 are provided on both sides of the support plate 7. One side of each of the two clamping plates 12 is in contact with both sides of the solar panel 8. A binding line 6 is provided between the first connecting ring 1 and the second connecting ring 2. The first connecting ring 1 and the second connecting ring 2 clamp the two sides of the binding line 6 respectively, so that the four limiting blocks 3 fit together. The screw 4 is inserted between the two limiting blocks 3 and the thread of the limiting nut 5 is used to sleeve the screw 4.

[0027] Working Principle: Currently, photovoltaic (PV) brackets using rigging mechanisms as the primary load-bearing structure are called flexible brackets. Flexible brackets have the advantages of large span and flexible adjustable span range, thus having a wide range of applications. A flexible PV bracket is a support structure suitable for flexible PV modules. Flexible PV brackets use lightweight materials to reduce the weight of the bracket. The main function of a flexible PV bracket is to support PV modules, primarily by fixing them to the solar panels 8 using an installation structure. Pre-drilled holes are opened on the surfaces of the support plate 7 and the solar panels 8, and bolts are used to install them. In the above technology, connectors facilitate the installation of the solar panels 8. However, since solar panels 8 come in various sizes, the connectors can only install solar panels of specific sizes, leading to delays in the installation of other sizes, increasing labor costs, and reducing the flexibility and adaptability of the installation structure. Therefore, an innovation is made to this technology: the bottom surface of the solar panel 8 is tightly connected to the top of the support plate 7. The two clamping plates 12 are moved sequentially, and the two adjusting blocks 10 can move at one end of the adjusting rod 9. With the connection of the two extension plates 11, the clamping plates 12 will move synchronously, thereby adjusting the distance between the two clamping plates 12. Therefore, the clamping plates 12 can be used to clamp and fix the solar panel 8 according to its size. The solar panel 8 and the support plate 7 are further limited by bolts. After one side of the clamping plate 12 is clamped to one side of the solar panel 8, the auxiliary strip 14 is embedded into the extension plate 11 and the auxiliary hole 15. The three are threaded together, which can limit the support plate 7 and the clamping plate 12, improving the application range of the installation structure. The first connecting ring 1 and the second connecting ring 2 clamp the two sides of the binding line 6 respectively, so that the four limiting blocks 3 are in contact with each other. The screw 4 is inserted between the two limiting blocks 3. The limiting nut 5 is threaded onto the screw 4, thereby limiting and fixing the first connecting ring 1 and the second connecting ring 2, further ensuring the stability of the support plate 7.
