Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic module installation, and more specifically to a vertically installed photovoltaic module. Background Technology

[0002] Photovoltaic modules are typically installed with fixed-angle brackets at an inclined angle, forming an installation structure with two rows of brackets. The tilt angle can be changed by adjusting the height of the brackets. At the same time, in order to maximize the annual power generation data, the modules are usually installed at a 0° azimuth angle due south. The tilt angle is greatly affected by latitude and altitude. With the promotion of time-of-use pricing in the market, the electricity price is lower during the period with the highest power generation at noon. During other periods with high electricity prices, the power generation is not high due to the incident angle, which ultimately affects the power generation revenue. Therefore, the solution of vertically installing modules has emerged.

[0003] However, most existing vertical installation solutions use a slot-type fixing method, which is inconvenient to install and expensive. Furthermore, slot-type installation can affect the bifacial power generation performance of bifacial modules to some extent. A similar solution is proposed in patent number CN202121790349.1, which describes a vertical mounting bracket structure for photovoltaic modules. This invention relates to the field of photovoltaic module technology. The photovoltaic panel includes a photovoltaic panel with four sides fixedly connected to a panel frame. Rotating fixing blocks are fixedly connected to the middle positions on both sides of the panel frame. Two sets of rotating fixing blocks are rotatably connected to sliders on one side, two sets of sliders are fixedly connected to springs on one side, two sets of springs are fixedly connected to spring blocks on one side, and two sets of sliders are slidably connected to slide rails. When the terrain is low or there are obstructions in the surrounding environment, tightening the nut causes a primary rotating rod to drive a secondary rotating rod, pushing the support block upwards. The support block then drives the slider to slide in the slide rails until a suitable height is reached. Tightening the nut stops, and the panel frame is fixed in place by the cooperation of the support block and wedge key. In different environments, the height can be adjusted to better allow the photovoltaic panel to receive sunlight and avoid obstruction from the surrounding environment.

[0004] However, the device has high installation costs and is difficult to install, and it cannot improve the bifacial power generation efficiency of photovoltaic modules or increase the revenue from power generation under time-of-use pricing. Utility Model Content

[0005] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the limitations of the prior art, save installation costs and reduce installation difficulty, improve the bifacial power generation efficiency of photovoltaic modules, and increase the revenue from power generation under time-of-use pricing.

[0006] Therefore, the technical solution adopted is a vertically installed photovoltaic module of this utility model, which includes a photovoltaic panel, the photovoltaic panel being fixed between two mounting beams, and both mounting beams being fixed on one or more vertical supports.

[0007] Preferably, the photovoltaic panel is double-sided double-glass, and a photovoltaic panel frame is fixed around the perimeter of the photovoltaic panel.

[0008] Preferably, the mounting beam is provided with a plurality of photovoltaic module connection and mounting holes evenly distributed on it.

[0009] Preferably, the outer wall of the photovoltaic panel frame is provided with multiple side mounting slots arranged in parallel, and the multiple side mounting slots can be aligned and connected to multiple photovoltaic module connection and mounting holes.

[0010] Preferably, the mounting beam is provided with a plurality of vertical bracket connection mounting holes evenly distributed on it.

[0011] Preferably, the vertical support has multiple mounting holes evenly distributed on it.

[0012] Preferably, the vertical bracket is connected to the mounting hole and the mounting hole by a threaded connection of a fixing bolt.

[0013] Preferably, the lower end of the vertical bracket is fixed by a plurality of fixed expansion bolts connected by threaded connection.

[0014] Preferably, the vertical support includes a base and a rotating plate. The lower end of the rotating plate rotates on the upper end of the base via a rotating gear shaft. A locking platform is connected to the fixed threaded seat on the side end of the base via a threaded engagement. The upper end of the locking platform meshes with the rotating gear shaft.

[0030] Example 1:

[0031] like Figure 1 — Figure 5 As shown, a vertically installed photovoltaic module includes a photovoltaic panel 1, which is fixed between two mounting beams 3, and both mounting beams 3 are fixed on one or more vertical supports 2.

[0032] The working principle and beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: This design uses multiple sets of vertical metal supports 2 with multiple mounting holes. The bottom of the supports is connected to the ground by expansion bolts 5 through a welded base. The vertical supports 2 and the mounting beam 3 are fixed with bolts to form an installation plane. The vertical supports 2 have strong rigidity and multiple strip-shaped cutouts in the middle. The photovoltaic panel 1 is vertically installed by aligning the special strip-shaped cutouts of the photovoltaic panel frame 9 with the strip-shaped cutouts of the mounting beam 3 and then fixing it with bolts. After installation, the mounting beam 3 fits against the outer side wall of the photovoltaic panel frame 9 and does not obstruct the photovoltaic module.

[0033] This will save on installation costs and reduce installation difficulty, improve the bifacial power generation efficiency of photovoltaic modules, and increase the revenue from power generation under time-of-use pricing.

[0034] Example 2:

[0035] like Figure 1 — Figure 5 As shown, a vertically installed photovoltaic module is provided, wherein the photovoltaic panel 1 is double-sided double-glass, and a photovoltaic panel frame 9 is fixedly wrapped around the periphery of the photovoltaic panel 1.

[0036] The working principle and beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: The photovoltaic panel 1 is double-sided and double-glass. The double-sided and double-glass design allows the photovoltaic panel 1 to not only receive direct sunlight from the front, but also to utilize reflected and scattered light, thereby significantly improving power generation efficiency. The double-sided and double-glass photovoltaic panel 1 usually adopts a double-layer glass structure, which has high weather resistance and fire resistance, as well as good sealing performance and long life. The photovoltaic panel 1 is surrounded and fixed by a photovoltaic panel frame 9, which facilitates the protection of the photovoltaic panel 1 while also making it easy to install and fix, thereby fully absorbing energy.

[0037] Example 3:

[0038] like Figure 1 — Figure 5 As shown, a vertically installed photovoltaic module has multiple photovoltaic module connection mounting holes 7 evenly arranged on the mounting beam 3; multiple side mounting grooves 10 are evenly arranged side by side on the outer wall of the photovoltaic panel frame 9, and the multiple side mounting grooves 10 can be aligned and connected to the multiple photovoltaic module connection mounting holes 7.

[0039] The working principle and beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: Multiple photovoltaic module connection mounting holes 7 are evenly arranged on the mounting beam 3 and are opposite to multiple side mounting grooves 10 on the side end of the photovoltaic panel frame 9. The photovoltaic panel 1 is vertically installed by bolting after the multiple side mounting grooves 10 with the special strip-shaped hollow photovoltaic module connection mounting holes 7 of the mounting beam 3 are aligned with the positions of the mounting beam 3. After installation, the mounting beam 3 is attached to the outer wall of the photovoltaic panel frame 9 and does not block the photovoltaic module.

[0040] After the outer wall of the side end of the photovoltaic panel frame 9 is fixed to the mounting beam 3, the mounting beam 3 will not obstruct the effective power generation area on the back of the photovoltaic panel 1.

[0041] Example 4:

[0042] like Figure 1 — Figure 5 As shown, a vertically installed photovoltaic module has multiple vertical support connection mounting holes 6 evenly arranged on the mounting beam 3; multiple mounting holes 8 evenly arranged on the vertical support 2; and the vertical support connection mounting holes 6 and mounting holes 8 are connected by a fixing bolt 4 threaded engagement.

[0043] The working principle and beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: by connecting multiple fixing bolts 4 into the vertical bracket connection mounting holes 6 and mounting holes 8, the installation and fixing of the horizontal beam 3 on the vertical bracket 2 is realized, thereby supporting the photovoltaic panel 1 to absorb energy.

[0044] Example 5:

[0045] like Figure 1 — Figure 5 As shown, a vertically installed photovoltaic module is fixed at its bottom by a plurality of fixed expansion bolts 5 connected by threaded connection to the lower end of the vertical bracket 2.

[0046] The working principle and beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: by fixing multiple expansion bolts 5 at the bottom of the vertical bracket 2, the vertical bracket 2 is stably supported and fixed. By selecting the use of expansion bolts 5, long-term stable use can be achieved, thereby ensuring stable use on the ground or at a designated installation location for support and fixation.

[0047] Example 6:

[0048] like Figure 1 — Figure 6 As shown, a vertically installed photovoltaic module is provided. The vertical support 2 includes a base 12 and a rotating plate 11. The lower end of the rotating plate 11 rotates on the upper end of the base 12 via a rotating gear 13. A locking platform 14 is connected to the fixed threaded seat on the side end of the base 12 via a threaded engagement. The upper end of the locking platform 14 meshes with the rotating gear 13.

[0049] The working principle and beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: Vertical use in a specific environment can fully guarantee the absorption of energy from both sides. However, considering different seasons and geographical locations, it is necessary to consider how to maximize energy absorption from both sides when installing the photovoltaic panel 1. Therefore, overall angle fine-tuning is required to adapt to different seasons and geographical locations. By rotating the rotating gear shaft 13, the rotating plate 11 is driven to rotate and tilt on the base 12, thereby tilting both the mounting beam 3 and the photovoltaic panel 1. Then, by rotating the bolt on the locking platform 14 at the side end of the base 12, the locking platform 14 is pushed to engage with the rotating gear shaft 13, locking the tilt angle. This achieves the effect of convenient overall adjustment of the tilt angle, ensuring adaptability to different seasons and geographical locations.

[0050] At the same time, the combined use of multiple vertical supports 2 can extend the installation of photovoltaic panels 1, increasing the support and fixation of the photovoltaic panels 1's usable receiving area.

[0051] Example 7:

[0052] like Figure 1 — Figure 6 As shown, a vertically installed photovoltaic module has internal threaded holes at both ends of the mounting beam 3.

[0053] The working principle and beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: the internal threaded holes at both ends of the mounting beam 3 facilitate the extension of the mounting beam 3 by connecting it through threaded engagement, thereby facilitating the extension and combination of multiple photovoltaic panels 1 of the same specifications, and thus enabling the support, fixation and adjustment of multiple photovoltaic panels 1.

[0054] The above description is not intended to limit the present utility model, nor is the present utility model limited to the examples given above. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present utility model are also within the protection scope of the present utility model.
