Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of photovoltaic carport equipment, and specifically relates to a photovoltaic panel carport equipped with a drainage pipe. Background Technology

[0002] A photovoltaic (PV) carport is a facility that combines a photovoltaic power generation system with the carport structure. Based on a traditional carport, it installs PV panels on the roof, providing a shaded and rain-protected parking space for vehicles while also generating electricity using solar energy. However, current PV carports have several drawbacks when lacking drainage pipes. Without drainage pipes, rainwater (and snowmelt) cannot be effectively discharged, accumulating on the PV panel surface and flowing down the panels, affecting vehicles underneath, such as wetting them, leaving water stains and dirt, and potentially damaging the paint. This is because there is no dedicated drainage channel to guide the rainwater (and snowmelt) away. Furthermore, long-term retention of rainwater (and snowmelt) on the PV panels can lead to scale and stains, reducing the light transmittance and power generation efficiency of the PV panels. This is because dust and other impurities mix with rainwater (and snowmelt) and adhere to the surface. Additionally, accumulated water increases the weight load on the carport, potentially causing structural damage, as the weight of water is not negligible.

[0003] Conventional solutions include adjusting the angle of the photovoltaic panels to allow rainwater (snow) to slide off faster, but this may change the optimal angle for the photovoltaic panels to receive sunlight, thus reducing power generation efficiency. This is because the change in angle affects the amount of sunlight received. Therefore, a new structure is needed to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a photovoltaic panel carport with drainage pipes to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a photovoltaic panel carport equipped with a drainage pipe, comprising: a carport assembly and a drainage assembly. Multiple sets of drainage assemblies are evenly installed on the lower surface of the carport assembly. The carport assembly includes: columns and crossbeams. A crossbeam is installed on the upper edge of the outer surface of the columns. Multiple photovoltaic panels are installed on the upper surface of the crossbeams via multiple mounting brackets. A fixing bracket I is installed between the crossbeams and the columns, and a fixing bracket II is installed between each column. The drainage assembly includes: a drainage pipe and a water inlet box. A drainage pipe and a fixing plate are installed between two water inlet boxes. A filter screen is installed inside the water inlet box. A water outlet pipe is installed on the lower surface of the water inlet box. An arc-shaped protrusion is installed inside the drainage pipe.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment, multiple columns are provided, and the multiple columns have the same structure. The columns and the crossbeams form an inverted L-shaped structure. A row of photovoltaic panels is evenly installed on the upper surface of the crossbeams through two mounting brackets, and two mounting brackets form a group.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, three rows of photovoltaic panels are mounted on the upper surface of the crossbeam via three sets of mounting brackets. The photovoltaic panels are mounted at a 15-degree angle, with the front lower than the back, on the upper surface of the mounting brackets. A fixing bracket I is installed between the crossbeam and the column at a 45-degree angle, with the front higher than the back. Multiple fixing brackets II are evenly installed on the same horizontal line between the multiple columns. In use, the fixing bracket I installed between the crossbeam and the column can enhance the connection strength between the crossbeam and the column. Because the photovoltaic panels are installed on the crossbeam, when encountering strong winds or other severe weather, they will exert great pressure and tension on the crossbeam. The fixing bracket I can effectively disperse these forces, prevent the crossbeam from deforming or detaching from the column, thereby ensuring the installation stability of the photovoltaic panels and enabling them to better withstand forces from different directions.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the drain pipe has a U-shaped cross-section, an arc-shaped protrusion is installed at the bottom inside the drain pipe, a drain pipe is installed on the lower side of the front side of each row of photovoltaic panels, and the upper surface of the water inlet box is designed to be open.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the water outlets at both ends of the drain pipe are respectively located inside the water inlet box. The water outlets are located above the filter screen. A water outlet pipe is installed at the center of the lower surface of the water inlet box. The end of the water outlet pipe away from the water inlet box is connected to the sewer. In use, the presence of the drainage component ensures that the carport can quickly and effectively drain rainwater. During rainfall, rainwater can be collected in time through the water inlet box and then drained away in an orderly manner through the drain pipe, which can drain a large amount of rainwater and maintain the stability of the carport structure.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the length of the drain pipe is matched with the length of a row of photovoltaic panels, and a set of drainage components is installed on the lower surface of each row of photovoltaic panels.

[0011] After adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting up a carport assembly, multiple sets of drainage components are evenly installed on the lower surface of the carport assembly. The carport assembly includes: columns and crossbeams. A crossbeam is installed on the upper edge of the outer surface of the column. Multiple photovoltaic panels are installed on the upper surface of the crossbeam through multiple mounting brackets. A fixing bracket 1 is installed between the crossbeam and the column, and a fixing bracket 2 is installed between each column. In use, the fixing bracket 1 installed between the crossbeam and the column can enhance the connection strength between the crossbeam and the column. Because the photovoltaic panels are installed on the crossbeam, when encountering strong winds or other severe weather, they will exert great pressure and tension on the crossbeam. The fixing bracket 1 can effectively disperse these forces, prevent the crossbeam from deforming or detaching from the column, thereby ensuring the installation stability of the photovoltaic panels and better being able to withstand forces from different directions.

[0012] By setting up a drainage component, which includes a drain pipe and a water inlet box, a drain pipe and a fixing plate are installed between the two water inlet boxes. A filter screen is installed inside the water inlet box, and a water outlet pipe is installed on the lower surface of the water inlet box. An arc-shaped protrusion is installed inside the drain pipe. When in use, the existence of the drainage component ensures that the carport can quickly and effectively drain rainwater, and the increased drainage makes the use of the photovoltaic carport more convenient.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides a technical solution: a photovoltaic panel carport equipped with a drainage pipe, comprising: a carport assembly and a drainage assembly. Multiple sets of drainage assemblies are evenly installed on the lower surface of the carport assembly. The carport assembly includes: columns 100 and crossbeams 110. The crossbeams 110 are installed on the upper edge of the outer surface of the columns 100. Multiple photovoltaic panels 150 are installed on the upper surface of the crossbeams 110 through multiple mounting brackets 140. A fixing bracket 130 is installed between the crossbeams 110 and the columns 100. A fixing bracket 120 is installed between each column 100. The drainage assembly includes: a drainage pipe 240 and a water inlet box 200. A drainage pipe 240 and a fixing plate 230 are installed between two water inlet boxes 200. A filter screen 210 is installed inside the water inlet box 200. A water outlet pipe 220 is installed on the lower surface of the water inlet box 200. An arc-shaped protrusion 241 is installed inside the drainage pipe 240.

[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 3 As the first embodiment of this utility model: multiple columns 100 are provided, and the multiple columns 100 have the same structure. The columns 100 and the crossbeam 110 form an inverted L-shaped structure. A row of photovoltaic panels 150 is evenly installed on the upper surface of the crossbeam 110 through two mounting brackets 140. The two mounting brackets 140 form a group.

[0022] Three rows of photovoltaic panels 150 are installed on the upper surface of the crossbeam 110 via three sets of mounting brackets 140. The photovoltaic panels 150 are installed at a 15-degree angle with the front lower than the back on the upper surface of the mounting brackets 140. A fixing bracket 130 is installed between the crossbeam 110 and the column 100 at a 45-degree angle with the front higher than the back. Multiple fixing brackets 120 are evenly installed on the same horizontal line between the multiple columns 100.

[0023] During use, the fixing bracket 130 installed between the crossbeam 110 and the column 100 can enhance the connection strength between the crossbeam 110 and the column 100. Because the photovoltaic panel 150 is installed on the crossbeam 110, when encountering strong winds or other severe weather, it will exert great pressure and tension on the crossbeam 110. The fixing bracket 130 can effectively disperse these forces, prevent the crossbeam 110 from deforming or detaching from the column 100, thereby ensuring the installation stability of the photovoltaic panel 150 and enabling it to better withstand forces from different directions. When it rains and drainage is required, the rainwater falls on the upper surface of the photovoltaic panel 150. Due to the tilted installation of the photovoltaic panel 150, the rainwater will fall into the drainage component due to gravity, and then the drainage component will perform the drainage operation.

[0024] Please see Figures 1 to 3 As a second embodiment of the present utility model: the cross-section of the drain pipe 240 is U-shaped, and an arc-shaped protrusion 241 is installed at the bottom inside the drain pipe 240. A drain pipe 240 is installed on the lower side of the front side of each row of photovoltaic panels 150, and the upper surface of the water inlet box 200 is designed with an opening.

[0025] The water outlets at both ends of the drain pipe 240 are respectively located inside the water inlet box 200. The water outlets are located above the filter screen 210. A water outlet pipe 220 is installed at the center of the lower surface of the water inlet box 200. The end of the water outlet pipe 220 away from the water inlet box 200 is connected to the sewer.

[0026] The length of the drain pipe 240 matches the length of a row of photovoltaic panels 150, and a set of drainage components is installed on the lower surface of each row of photovoltaic panels 150.

[0027] In use, when rainwater enters the drain pipe 240 through the steps of the first embodiment, the rainwater will be discharged to both ends of the drain pipe 240 due to the arc-shaped protrusions 241 installed inside the drain pipe 240, caused by the gravity of the arc. After being discharged through the drain pipe 240, the rainwater enters the inlet box 200. The filter screen 210 inside the inlet box 200 will then perform coarse filtration to prevent impurities from clogging the outlet pipe 220. After a period of use, the user can clean the filter screen 210 to avoid any issues during subsequent use. The water enters the inlet box 200 and is then discharged into the outlet pipe 220, where it is finally discharged. The end of the outlet pipe 220 away from the inlet box 200 can be connected to a sewer or a rainwater collection device, without being limited to a specific connection method. During use, the drainage components ensure that the carport can quickly and effectively drain rainwater. During rainfall, rainwater can be collected in time through the inlet box 200 and then discharged in an orderly manner through the drain pipe 240, which can discharge and collect a large amount of rainwater, maintaining the stability of the carport structure.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
