SUMMARY
[0003] The utility model is intended to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art.
[0004] To this end, the first aspect of the utility model provides a photovoltaic module.
[0005] The second aspect of the utility model provides a photovoltaic power generation system.
[0006] Therefore, the first aspect of the utility model provides a photovoltaic module, which includes a photovoltaic panel, two frames, at least one mounting piece, a support frame, and a first conductive piece.The two frames are arranged on opposite sides of the photovoltaic panel along a first direction.The mounting piece is connected to the photovoltaic panel.The support frame is connected to the mounting piece and is used to support the photovoltaic panel and ground the photovoltaic panel.The first conductive piece electrically connects the mounting piece and the frame, and the mounting piece and the support frame are electrically connected.
[0007] The photovoltaic module provided by the utility model includes a photovoltaic panel, and specifically, along a first direction, the photovoltaic panel can be arranged in a curved shape, that is, along the first direction, the photovoltaic panel is a curved photovoltaic panel.It can be understood that arranging the photovoltaic panel in a curved shape can improve the energy conversion efficiency of the photovoltaic panel during operation, that is, the photovoltaic panel can collect solar energy obliquely as the angle of light changes, and the curved photovoltaic panel can eliminate the reflection and refraction of light, avoiding the loss of power generation efficiency due to the inclination angle of the plane where the photovoltaic panel is located not meeting the requirements.
[0008] Further, the photovoltaic module further includes two frames, which are arranged on opposite sides of the photovoltaic panel along the first direction.Through the arrangement of the frames, the two sides of the photovoltaic panel can be protected and decorated, ensuring the stability and aesthetics of the photovoltaic panel structure.
[0009] Furthermore, the photovoltaic module also includes at least one mounting component and a support frame. The mounting component is connected to the support frame. Specifically, along the second direction, at least one mounting component is connected to the first side of the photovoltaic panel. The mounting component is also connected to the support frame, meaning the photovoltaic panel is mounted onto the support frame via the mounting component, thereby supporting the photovoltaic panel through the support frame. Specifically, when there are multiple mounting components, the multiple mounting components are arranged at intervals along the first direction to ensure the uniformity of force on the photovoltaic panel.
[0010] Furthermore, the support frame can be used for grounding. At the same time, the mounting component is electrically connected to the support frame, that is, the mounting component can be grounded through the support frame. Thus, during the operation of the photovoltaic module, the current on the mounting component can flow to the grounding terminal through the support frame, thereby preventing electric shock when workers touch the mounting component and ensuring the safety of the photovoltaic module during operation.
[0011] Furthermore, the photovoltaic module also includes a first conductive element, which can be disposed on the first side of the photovoltaic panel. The first conductive element is electrically connected to both the frame and the mounting component. That is, the frame can be electrically connected to the mounting component through the first conductive element. At the same time, since the mounting component can be grounded through the support frame, the frame can be grounded through the first conductive element, the mounting component, and the support frame, thus achieving grounding of the frame. During the operation of the photovoltaic module, workers will not be electrocuted when touching the frame, further improving the safety of the photovoltaic module.
[0012] Specifically, the first conductive element can be a flexible conductive element. Based on its flexibility, the shape of the first conductive element can be adapted to the shape of the photovoltaic panel when it is placed on one side of the photovoltaic panel. Specifically, along the first direction, the photovoltaic panel is curved. By adjusting the shape of the first conductive element, it can be adapted to the curved shape of the photovoltaic panel. Thus, while grounding the frame through the flexible circuit board, the overall structure of the photovoltaic module is not damaged. This ensures both the integrity and aesthetics of the photovoltaic module structure while achieving frame grounding.
[0013] The photovoltaic module provided by this utility model, through the setting of the first conductive element, can achieve electrical connection between the frame and the mounting component, thereby enabling the frame to be grounded through the first conductive element, the mounting component, and the support frame, ensuring the safety of the photovoltaic module during operation. Simultaneously, the first conductive element can be set as a flexible conductive element, allowing it to adapt to the curved shape of the photovoltaic panel. While achieving frame grounding through the first conductive element, the overall structure of the photovoltaic module is not damaged, thus ensuring the integrity and aesthetics of the photovoltaic module structure while achieving frame grounding.
[0014] In addition, the photovoltaic module according to the above-mentioned technical solution provided by this utility model may also have the following additional technical features:
[0015] In some technical solutions, the first conductive element may optionally include a flexible metal strip, which is attached to the photovoltaic panel, and the shape of the flexible metal strip is adapted to the shape of the photovoltaic panel along the first direction.
[0016] In this technical solution, the first conductive component can be a flexible metal strip. It is understood that metal has good shape plasticity, allowing the first conductive component to conform as closely as possible to the curved shape of the photovoltaic panel, thereby ensuring the integrity and aesthetics of the photovoltaic module structure. Simultaneously, the metal material also has good electrical conductivity, ensuring an effective electrical connection between the frame and the mounting component, thus guaranteeing the stability of the mounting component's grounding.
[0017] In some technical solutions, the mounting component may optionally include: a connecting part connected to a support frame; and a clamping part connected to the connecting part, which clamps the photovoltaic panel on a first side, wherein a flexible metal strip passes through the clamping part and is electrically connected to the clamping part.
[0018] In this technical solution, the mounting component may include a connecting part and a clamping part. The connecting part is connected to the support frame. Specifically, the connecting part can be connected to the support frame by components such as screws and rivets, thereby ensuring the stability of the connection between the mounting component and the support frame.
[0019] Furthermore, the clamping part is connected to the connecting part, and the clamping part can clamp the first side of the photovoltaic panel, thereby clamping the photovoltaic panel to ensure the stability of the connection between the photovoltaic panel and the mounting component.
[0020] Furthermore, the flexible metal strip passes through the clamping part and is electrically connected to it. That is, the flexible metal strip is disposed on the surface of the photovoltaic panel, allowing its shape to conform to the curved shape of the photovoltaic panel. The flexible metal strip is clamped between the clamping part and the flexible circuit board, enabling direct contact between the flexible metal strip and the clamping part, thus allowing direct electrical connection between the flexible metal strip and the clamping part. This, in turn, connects the flexible metal strip to the support frame via the clamping part, ensuring that the frame is grounded through the flexible metal strip.
[0021] In some technical solutions, optionally, a portion of the surface of the flexible metal strip is attached to a portion of the frame surface, a portion of the surface of the flexible metal strip is attached to the clamping part, and an anti-corrosion coating is provided on the surface of the flexible metal strip except for the portion attached to the frame and the portion attached to the clamping part.
[0022] In this technical solution, a portion of the surface of the flexible metal strip is in contact with a portion of the surface of the frame, thereby ensuring an effective electrical connection between the flexible metal strip and the frame. Simultaneously, a portion of the surface of the flexible metal strip is in contact with the clamping part, thus ensuring an effective electrical connection between the flexible metal strip and the clamping part, which in turn ensures an effective electrical connection between the flexible metal strip and the mounting component. This, in turn, ensures that the frame can be electrically connected to the mounting component through the flexible metal strip, thereby ensuring effective grounding of the frame.
[0023] In some technical solutions, the photovoltaic module may optionally include a second conductive element, through which the connecting part is connected to the support frame.
[0024] In this technical solution, the photovoltaic module may also include a second conductive element. By connecting one end of the second conductive element to the connecting part and the other end of the second conductive element to the support frame, the connecting part and the support frame can be electrically connected through the second conductive element, which ensures that the mounting part and the support frame can be effectively electrically connected.
[0025] In some technical solutions, the photovoltaic module may optionally include a waterproof component, which is disposed on the surface of the photovoltaic panel and is attached to the first conductive component, the shape of the waterproof component being adapted to the shape of the first conductive component.
[0026] In this technical solution, the photovoltaic module may also include a waterproof component, which can be installed on the surface of the photovoltaic panel and is attached to the first conductive component. The waterproof component protects the first conductive component, preventing external water and other impurities from directly contacting and corroding it, thereby ensuring the lifespan of the photovoltaic module.
[0027] It is understandable that, due to the curved shape of the photovoltaic panel, water and other impurities may accumulate on its surface. These impurities may flow through the surface of the photovoltaic panel to the first conductive component and cause corrosion. By installing waterproof components, impurities on the surface of the photovoltaic panel can be blocked, preventing them from directly contacting the first conductive component and thus effectively preventing corrosion of the first conductive component.
[0028] In some technical solutions, optionally, there are multiple photovoltaic panels, which are connected sequentially along the first direction.
[0029] In this technical solution, the number of photovoltaic panels can be set to multiple, and these multiple photovoltaic panels are connected sequentially along the first direction. By setting the number of photovoltaic panels to multiple, the area of the photovoltaic panels that can receive sunlight can be effectively increased, thereby increasing the power generation of the photovoltaic modules.

[0031] The photovoltaic power generation system provided by this utility model includes photovoltaic modules of any of the above-mentioned technical solutions. Therefore, the photovoltaic power generation system has all the beneficial effects of the above-mentioned photovoltaic modules, which will not be described in detail here.
[0032] In some technical solutions, optionally, there are multiple photovoltaic modules arranged along a second direction. The photovoltaic power generation system also includes a third conductive element, through which the support frames of two adjacent photovoltaic modules are electrically connected.
[0033] In this technical solution, the number of photovoltaic modules can be multiple; that is, the photovoltaic power generation system can include multiple photovoltaic modules, and these multiple photovoltaic modules can be arranged sequentially along the second direction. By setting up multiple photovoltaic modules, the area of the photovoltaic power generation system that can receive sunlight can be increased, thereby increasing the power generation of the photovoltaic power generation system.
[0034] Furthermore, the photovoltaic power generation system also includes a third conductive component, which allows the support frames of two adjacent photovoltaic modules to be connected together. In other words, by using the third conductive component, the support frames of multiple photovoltaic modules can be connected in series. This means that if one support frame of multiple photovoltaic modules is grounded, the grounding requirements of all photovoltaic module support frames can be met, thus simplifying the structure of the photovoltaic power generation system while ensuring the grounding needs of multiple photovoltaic modules are met.
[0035] In some technical solutions, optionally, there are multiple photovoltaic modules, which are arranged along a first direction, with the frames of two adjacent photovoltaic modules abutting each other.
[0036] In this technical solution, multiple photovoltaic modules can be arranged along a first direction, with the frames of adjacent photovoltaic modules abutting each other. This allows for electrical connection between the frames of adjacent photovoltaic modules, enabling all photovoltaic module frames to be electrically connected to the mounting component via a first conductive element. Consequently, all photovoltaic module frames can be grounded, ensuring the safety of the photovoltaic power generation system.
[0037] In some technical solutions, the photovoltaic power generation system may optionally include: a lightning protection system for grounding; and a fourth conductive element, through which the support frame of a photovoltaic module is connected to the lightning protection system.
[0038] In this technical solution, the photovoltaic power generation system may also include a lightning protection system. The lightning protection system is used for grounding. In the event of a thunderstorm, if the photovoltaic power generation system is struck by lightning, the lightning protection system can divert a large amount of current from the photovoltaic power generation system into the ground wire, thereby preventing damage caused by a large amount of current accumulating in the photovoltaic power generation system in a short period of time and ensuring the stability of the photovoltaic power generation system operation.
[0039] Furthermore, the photovoltaic power generation system may also include a fourth conductive component, wherein the support frame of one photovoltaic module is connected to the lightning protection system through the fourth conductive component. At the same time, since the support frames of multiple photovoltaic modules are connected in series through a third conductive component, the support frames of multiple photovoltaic modules can be connected to the lightning protection system, thereby enabling the support frames of multiple photovoltaic modules to be grounded, thus ensuring the safety of the photovoltaic power generation system operation.

It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments of this utility model and the features thereof can be combined with each other.
[0055] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0056] The following reference Figures 1 to 10 This invention describes photovoltaic modules and photovoltaic power generation systems according to some embodiments of the present invention.
[0057] like Figure 1 As shown, according to one embodiment of the present invention, a photovoltaic module 100 is provided, comprising: a photovoltaic panel 102; two frames 104, the two frames 104 being respectively disposed on opposite sides of the photovoltaic panel 102 along a first direction; at least one mounting member 106, the mounting member 106 being connected to the photovoltaic panel 102; a support frame 108, connected to the mounting member 106, the support frame 108 being used to support the photovoltaic panel 102 and for grounding; and a first conductive member 110, the first conductive member being electrically connected to the mounting member 106 and the frames 104, the mounting member 106 being electrically connected to the support frame 108.
[0058] The photovoltaic module 100 provided by this utility model includes a photovoltaic panel 102. Specifically, along the first direction, the photovoltaic panel 102 can be configured as a curved shape, that is, along the first direction, the photovoltaic panel 102 is a curved photovoltaic panel 102. It is understood that configuring the shape of the photovoltaic panel 102 as curved can improve the energy conversion efficiency of the photovoltaic panel 102 during operation. That is, the photovoltaic panel 102 can collect solar energy obliquely according to the change of the light angle, and the curved surface of the photovoltaic panel 102 can eliminate the reflection and refraction of light, avoiding the loss of power generation efficiency caused by the tilt angle of the plane on which the photovoltaic panel 102 is located not meeting the requirements. Specifically, as... Figure 2 As shown, the photovoltaic panel 102 can be composed of multiple photovoltaic tiles 122, wherein the surface of the photovoltaic tiles 122 is curved, and multiple photovoltaic tiles 122 are connected sequentially along the first direction. This results in the photovoltaic panel 102 having a curved shape along the first direction, thereby improving the energy conversion efficiency of the photovoltaic panel 102 during operation.
[0059] Furthermore, the photovoltaic module 100 also includes two frames 104. Along the first direction, the two frames 104 are respectively disposed on opposite sides of the photovoltaic panel 102. By setting the frames 104, the sides of the photovoltaic panel 102 can be protected and decorated, ensuring the stability and aesthetics of the photovoltaic panel 102 structure.
[0060] Furthermore, the photovoltaic module 100 also includes at least one mounting member 106 and a support frame 108. The mounting member 106 is connected to the support frame 108. Specifically, along the second direction, at least one mounting member 106 is connected to the first side of the photovoltaic panel 102. The mounting member 106 is connected to the support frame 108, that is, the photovoltaic panel 102 is mounted onto the support frame 108 via the mounting member 106, thereby supporting the photovoltaic panel 102 via the support frame 108. Specifically, when there are multiple mounting members 106, the multiple mounting members 106 are arranged at intervals along the first direction to ensure the uniformity of force on the photovoltaic panel 102.
[0061] Furthermore, the support frame 108 can be used for grounding. At the same time, the mounting component 106 is electrically connected to the support frame 108. That is, the mounting component 106 can be grounded through the support frame 108. Thus, during the operation of the photovoltaic module 100, the current on the mounting component 106 can flow to the grounding terminal through the support frame 108, thereby preventing electric shock when personnel touch the mounting component 106 and ensuring the safety of the photovoltaic module 100 during operation.
[0062] Furthermore, the photovoltaic module 100 also includes a first conductive element 110, which is disposed on the first side of the photovoltaic panel 102. The first conductive element 110 is electrically connected to both the frame 104 and the mounting member 106. That is, the frame 104 can be electrically connected to the mounting member 106 through the first conductive element 110. Meanwhile, since the mounting member 106 can be grounded through the support frame 108, the frame 104 can be grounded through the first conductive element 110, the mounting member 106, and the support frame 108. This achieves grounding of the frame 104, ensuring that workers will not be electrocuted when touching the frame 104 during the operation of the photovoltaic module 100, thus further improving the safety of the photovoltaic module 100.
[0063] Specifically, the first conductive element 110 can be a flexible conductive element. Based on the flexibility of the first conductive element 110, its shape can be adapted to the shape of the photovoltaic panel 102 when it is disposed on one side of the photovoltaic panel 102. Specifically, along the first direction, the photovoltaic panel 102 has a curved shape. By adjusting the shape of the first conductive element 110, its shape can be adapted to the curved shape of the photovoltaic panel 102. Thus, while grounding the frame 104 through the flexible circuit board, the overall structure of the photovoltaic module 100 is not damaged. Therefore, while grounding the frame 104 is achieved, the integrity and aesthetics of the photovoltaic module 100 structure are ensured.
[0064] The photovoltaic module 100 provided by this utility model, through the setting of the first conductive element 110, can realize the electrical connection between the frame 104 and the mounting part 106, thereby enabling the frame 104 to be grounded through the first conductive element 110, the mounting part 106, and the support frame 108, ensuring the safety of the photovoltaic module 100 during operation. At the same time, the first conductive element 110 can be set as a flexible conductive element, so that the first conductive element 110 can be adapted to the curved shape of the photovoltaic panel 102. While grounding the frame 104 through the flexible circuit board, the overall structure of the photovoltaic module 100 is not damaged. Thus, while achieving grounding of the frame 104, the integrity and aesthetics of the photovoltaic module 100 structure are guaranteed.
[0065] In some embodiments, optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first conductive element 110 includes a flexible metal strip 112, which is attached to the photovoltaic panel 102, and the shape of the flexible metal strip 112 is adapted to the shape of the photovoltaic panel 102 along the first direction.
[0066] In this embodiment, the first conductive element 110 can be a flexible metal strip 112. It is understood that metal materials have good shape plasticity, allowing the first conductive element 110 to adapt as closely as possible to the curved shape of the photovoltaic panel 102, thereby ensuring the integrity and aesthetics of the photovoltaic module 100 structure. Simultaneously, the metal material also has good electrical conductivity, ensuring that the frame 104 can be effectively electrically connected to the mounting component 106, thereby ensuring the stability of the grounding of the mounting component 106.
[0067] Specifically, the flexible metal strip 112 can be a flexible aluminum strip. Aluminum is relatively soft and has good plasticity, which can ensure that it is compatible with the curved shape of the photovoltaic panel 102. At the same time, aluminum has good conductivity, which can ensure the stability of the grounding of the frame 104.
[0068] In some embodiments, optionally, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 9 As shown, the mounting component 106 includes: a connecting part 114, which is connected to the support frame 108; and a clamping part 116, which is connected to the connecting part 114 and clamps the photovoltaic panel 102 on the first side. A flexible metal strip 112 passes through the clamping part 116 and is electrically connected to the clamping part 116.
[0069] In this embodiment, the mounting component 106 may include a connecting portion 114 and a clamping portion 116. The connecting portion 114 is connected to the support frame 108. Specifically, the connecting portion 114 can be connected to the support frame 108 by components such as screws and rivets, thereby ensuring the stability of the connection between the mounting component 106 and the support frame 108.
[0070] Furthermore, the clamping part 116 is connected to the connecting part 114. At the same time, the clamping part 116 can clamp the photovoltaic panel 102 on the first side, thereby clamping the photovoltaic panel 102 through the clamping part 116 to ensure the stability of the connection between the photovoltaic panel 102 and the mounting part 106.
[0071] Specifically, the connecting part 114 and the clamping part 116 can be made of metal, which can ensure the structural strength of the mounting part 106 and the supporting effect on the photovoltaic panel 102. Furthermore, the connecting part 114 and the clamping part 116 can be manufactured in one piece to further ensure the structural strength of the mounting part 106.
[0072] Furthermore, the flexible metal strip 112 passes through the clamping part 116 and is electrically connected to the clamping part 116. That is, the flexible metal strip 112 is disposed on the surface of the photovoltaic panel 102, so that the shape of the flexible metal strip 112 can be adapted to the curved shape of the photovoltaic panel 102, and the flexible metal strip 112 can be clamped between the clamping part 116 and the flexible circuit board, so that the flexible metal strip 112 can directly contact the clamping part 116, thereby enabling the flexible metal strip 112 to be directly electrically connected to the clamping part 116, and then electrically connected to the support frame 108 through the clamping part 116, thereby ensuring that the frame 104 can be grounded through the flexible metal strip 112.
[0073] Furthermore, a portion of the surface of the flexible metal strip 112 is in contact with a portion of the surface of the frame 104, and a portion of the surface of the flexible metal strip 112 is in contact with the clamping portion 116. An anti-corrosion coating is provided on the surface of the flexible metal strip 112 except for the portion in contact with the frame 104 and the portion in contact with the clamping portion 116.
[0074] Specifically, a portion of the surface of the flexible metal strip 112 is in contact with a portion of the surface of the frame 104, thereby ensuring an effective electrical connection between the flexible metal strip 112 and the frame 104. Simultaneously, a portion of the surface of the flexible metal strip 112 is in contact with the clamping portion 116, thereby ensuring an effective electrical connection between the flexible metal strip 112 and the clamping portion 116, which in turn ensures an effective electrical connection between the flexible metal strip 112 and the mounting member 106. This, in turn, ensures that the frame 104 can be electrically connected to the mounting member 106 through the flexible metal strip 112, thus ensuring effective grounding of the frame 104.
[0075] Furthermore, an anti-corrosion coating can be provided on the surface of the flexible metal strip 112, except for the portion that adheres to the frame 104 and the portion that adheres to the clamping portion 116. That is, as... Figure 8 As shown, the portions of the flexible metal strip 112 that are in contact with the frame 104 and the clamping portion 116 are exposed areas 124. This ensures that the flexible metal strip 112 can directly contact the frame 104 and the clamping portion 116, thereby enabling effective electrical connection between the flexible metal strip 112 and the frame 104 and the clamping portion 116. In this way, the flexible metal strip 112 can be protected by an anti-corrosion coating, preventing corrosion from the external environment, while also ensuring effective electrical connection between the flexible metal strip 112 and the frame 104 and the clamping portion 116.
[0076] Accordingly, such as Figure 8As shown, an anti-corrosion coating can also be provided on the surface of the clamping part 116, except for the area that is in contact with the flexible metal strip 112. That is, the part of the surface of the clamping part 116 that is in contact with the flexible metal strip 112 is the exposed area 124. In this way, the clamping part 116 can be protected by the anti-corrosion coating, and the stability of the electrical connection between the clamping part 116 and the flexible metal strip 112 can also be guaranteed.
[0077] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, an anti-corrosion coating is provided on the surface of the frame 104, except for the portion that is in contact with the flexible metal strip 112. That is, the portion of the frame 104 that is in contact with the flexible metal strip 112 is also an exposed area 124. In this way, the frame 104 can be protected by the anti-corrosion coating, while also ensuring the stability of the electrical connection between the frame 104 and the flexible metal strip 112.
[0078] In some embodiments, optionally, such as Figure 1 As shown, the photovoltaic module 100 also includes a second conductive element 118, and the connecting part 114 is connected to the support frame 108 through the second conductive element 118.
[0079] In this embodiment, the photovoltaic module 100 may further include a second conductive element 118. By connecting one end of the second conductive element 118 to the connecting part 114 and the other end of the second conductive element 118 to the support frame 108, the connecting part 114 and the support frame 108 can be electrically connected through the second conductive element 118, which ensures that the mounting part 106 and the support frame 108 can be effectively electrically connected.
[0080] In some embodiments, optionally, such as Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the photovoltaic module 100 also includes a waterproof component 120, which is disposed on the surface of the photovoltaic panel 102 and is attached to the first conductive component 110. The shape of the waterproof component 120 is adapted to the shape of the first conductive component 110.
[0081] In this embodiment, the photovoltaic module 100 may further include a waterproof component 120, which may be disposed on the surface of the photovoltaic panel 102 and attached to the first conductive component 110. The waterproof component 120 protects the first conductive component 110, preventing external water and other impurities from directly contacting and corroding it, thereby ensuring the service life of the photovoltaic module 100.
[0082] It is understandable that, since the photovoltaic panel 102 is curved, water and other impurities may accumulate on its surface. These impurities may flow through the surface of the photovoltaic panel 102 to the first conductive element 110 and cause corrosion to the first conductive element 110. By setting the waterproof element 120, the impurities on the surface of the photovoltaic panel 102 can be blocked, preventing the impurities from directly contacting the first conductive element 110, thereby effectively preventing the first conductive element 110 from being corroded.
[0083] Specifically, the waterproof component 120 can be made of flexible materials such as silicone, so that the shape of the waterproof component 120 can be adapted to the shape of the first conductive component 110, thereby ensuring the protective effect on the first conductive component 110, while ensuring the integrity and aesthetics of the photovoltaic module 100 structure.
[0084] In some embodiments, optionally, there are multiple photovoltaic panels 102, which are connected sequentially along a first direction.
[0085] In this embodiment, the number of photovoltaic panels 102 can be set to multiple, and multiple photovoltaic panels 102 are connected sequentially along the first direction. By setting the number of photovoltaic panels 102 to multiple, the area of photovoltaic panels 102 that can receive sunlight can be effectively increased, thereby increasing the power generation of photovoltaic module 100.
[0086] According to one embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 10 As shown, a photovoltaic power generation system 200 is proposed, including a photovoltaic module 100 as described in any of the above technical solutions.
[0087] The photovoltaic power generation system 200 provided by this utility model includes the photovoltaic module 100 of any of the above technical solutions. Therefore, the photovoltaic power generation system 200 has all the beneficial effects of the photovoltaic module 100, which will not be described in detail here.
[0088] In some embodiments, optionally, such as Figure 10 As shown, there are multiple photovoltaic modules 100, which are arranged along the second direction. The photovoltaic power generation system 200 also includes a third conductive element 202, and the support frame 108 of two adjacent photovoltaic modules 100 are electrically connected through the third conductive element 202.
[0089] In this embodiment, the number of photovoltaic modules 100 can be multiple, that is, the photovoltaic power generation system 200 can include multiple photovoltaic modules 100, and the multiple photovoltaic modules 100 can be arranged sequentially along the second direction. By setting multiple photovoltaic modules 100, the area of the photovoltaic power generation system 200 that can receive sunlight can be increased, thereby increasing the power generation of the photovoltaic power generation system 200.
[0090] Furthermore, the photovoltaic power generation system 200 also includes a third conductive element 202, which allows the support frames 108 of two adjacent photovoltaic modules 100 to be connected through the third conductive element 202. That is, by setting the third conductive element 202, the support frames 108 of multiple photovoltaic modules 100 can be connected in series, so that if one support frame 108 of multiple photovoltaic modules 100 is grounded, the grounding of the support frames 108 of all photovoltaic modules 100 can be satisfied. Thus, while ensuring the grounding requirements of multiple photovoltaic modules 100, the structure of the photovoltaic power generation system 200 is simplified.
[0091] In some embodiments, optionally, such as Figure 10 As shown, there are multiple photovoltaic modules 100, which are arranged along the first direction, with the frames 104 of two adjacent photovoltaic modules 100 abutting each other.
[0092] In this technical solution, multiple photovoltaic modules 100 can be arranged along a first direction, and the frames 104 of two adjacent photovoltaic modules 100 abut against each other. This allows for electrical connection between the frames 104 of two adjacent photovoltaic modules 100, enabling all frames 104 of the photovoltaic modules 100 to be electrically connected to the mounting component 106 via the first conductive element 110. This, in turn, ensures that all frames 104 of the photovoltaic modules 100 are grounded, guaranteeing the safety of the photovoltaic power generation system 200.
[0093] In some embodiments, optionally, such as Figure 10 As shown, the photovoltaic power generation system 200 also includes: a lightning protection system 204, which is used for grounding; and a fourth conductive element 206, through which the support frame 108 of a photovoltaic module 100 is connected to the lightning protection system 204.
[0094] In this embodiment, the photovoltaic power generation system 200 may also include a lightning protection system 204. The lightning protection system 204 is used for grounding. In the event of a thunderstorm, if the photovoltaic power generation system 200 is struck by lightning, the lightning protection system 204 can divert a large amount of current in the photovoltaic power generation system 200 into the ground wire, thereby preventing damage caused by a large amount of current accumulating in the photovoltaic power generation system 200 in a short period of time and ensuring the stability of the operation of the photovoltaic power generation system 200.
[0095] Furthermore, the photovoltaic power generation system 200 may also include a fourth conductive element 206, wherein the support frame 108 of one photovoltaic module 100 is connected to the lightning protection system 204 through the fourth conductive element 206. At the same time, since the support frames 108 of multiple photovoltaic modules 100 are connected in series through a third conductive element 202, the support frames 108 of multiple photovoltaic modules 100 can all be connected to the lightning protection system 204, thereby enabling the support frames 108 of multiple photovoltaic modules 100 to be grounded, thus ensuring the safety of the operation of the photovoltaic power generation system 200.
