Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic roof panel technology, and in particular to a prefabricated photovoltaic roof panel. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional photovoltaic (PV) roof panels integrate building structure and photovoltaic power generation functions in their design, aiming to achieve green building environmental protection and energy self-sufficiency. The system typically includes the following main components: 1) Main structure: bearing the main load-bearing task of the entire roof and providing stable support; 2) Secondary structure purlins: installed on the main structure to support the roof substrate and insulation materials; 3) Insulation cotton: providing good heat insulation and reducing energy loss inside the building; 4) Roof substrate: serving as the installation base for the PV panels, and also providing waterproofing and heat insulation; 5) PV fixing structure: used to fix the PV panels, ensuring their stable installation on the roof; 6. PV panels: the core of the PV system, responsible for converting solar energy into electrical energy. However, during construction, this traditional PV roof panel system has the following problems: First, the construction process is relatively cumbersome. After the main roof structure is completed, the PV connection structure needs to be added on-site, which usually involves complex measurement and installation work. This work not only requires specialized technicians but also takes a long time to complete, thus increasing the construction cycle. Second, the installation of this system significantly increases the roof load. The weight of the photovoltaic panels and fixed structures places higher demands on the roof structure, potentially requiring reinforcement of the main and secondary roof structures, further increasing the building's cost and complexity. Furthermore, the need to add extra structures during construction leads to high overall costs. This includes not only material costs but also construction worker wages, equipment rental fees, and more. In the long run, these high costs may negatively impact the building's return on investment.

[0003] Therefore, it is crucial to provide a photovoltaic roof panel that can solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
