[0025] 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.

[0026] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fast and convenient photovoltaic module installation device to solve the problems existing in the prior art. The device uses a frame and clips to connect and fix the modules using slots and spikes. The device has a simple structure, is easy and quick to install, does not require installation tools, and is not affected by limited space.

[0027] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, this embodiment provides a fast and convenient photovoltaic module installation device, including a frame 1 and a clip 2. The frame 1 has a U-shaped structure. Clip holes 5 are correspondingly provided on the side walls of the open end of the frame 1. Module frame clips 4 are provided on the closed end of the frame 1. Module frame slots 3 are provided on the side walls of the closed end of the frame 1 on the feeding side of the module frame clips 4. The module frame slots 3 are used to connect with the module frame 9, and the module frame clips 4 are used to prevent... The component frame 9 detaches from the component frame slot 3; the clip 2 is a slot-shaped structure with open top and both ends; the clip 2 is inserted through the clip hole 5; one end of the clip 2 is provided with a clip baffle 8, and the other end of the clip 2 has corresponding clip protrusions 7 on both side walls; the clip baffle 8 is used to limit the connection with one side outer wall of the frame 1, and the clip protrusions 7 are used to limit the connection with the other side outer wall of the frame 1; the rectangular hole formed by the clip 2 and the frame 1 is used to connect with the crossbeam 10.

[0029] During installation, the open end of the card frame 1 is facing the top of the crossbeam 10 and installed from above the crossbeam 10 downwards. The width of the inner wall of the card frame 1 is consistent with the width of the crossbeam 10, thus enabling the card frame 1 and the crossbeam 10 to form a limiting and fixed connection. The bottom mounting plate of the component frame 9 is inserted into the component frame slot 3 on the card frame 1, and the component frame spikes 4 are used to abut against the upper surface of the bottom mounting plate to prevent the component frame 9 from falling out of the component frame slot 3. The side of the card piece 2 with the card piece protrusion 7 is inserted into the card piece hole 5 on one side of the card frame 1, so that the card piece protrusion 7 on the card piece 2 passes through both card piece holes 5. At this time, the end of the card piece protrusion 7 abuts against the outer wall of one side of the card frame 1, and the card piece baffle 8 is in close contact with the outer wall of the other side of the card frame 1, thus making the card piece 2 and the card frame 1 tightly connected. At the same time, the card piece spikes 6 inside the card piece 2 abut against the bottom surface of the crossbeam 10, which can prevent the card piece 2 and the card frame 1 from moving laterally.

[0030] In some specific embodiments, the width and height of the card hole 5 correspond to the width and height of the card 2, so that the card 2 will not wobble inside the card hole 5 after it is inserted into the card hole 5.

[0031] In some specific embodiments, the clip 2 is a sheet metal part made of high-strength stainless steel, wherein the clip spike 6 is a bent plate with the bottom of the clip 2 protruding upward. A trapezoidal piece of plate is cut off from the middle of the clip spike 6, so that the two sides of the clip spike 6 form a triangular structure, thus forming a spike structure.

[0032] In some specific embodiments, one end of the clip 6 is connected to the inner bottom of the clip 2, and the other end of the clip 6 is obliquely upward toward the top of the clip 2. The end of the clip 6 is used to abut against the lower surface of the fixed crossbeam 10, thereby keeping the clip 2 relatively fixed to the lateral side.

[0033] In some specific embodiments, the protrusion height of the clip 6 is not lower than the side wall height of the clip 2, that is, the upper end of the clip 6 exceeds the side wall height of the clip 2, so that the tip of the clip 6 can contact the lower bottom surface of the crossbeam 10.

[0034] In some specific embodiments, the protrusion height of the component frame spike 4 is not higher than the centerline height of the component frame slot 3. The component frame spike 4 is formed by cutting a trapezoidal piece of plate material from the middle of the component frame spike 4, so that the two sides of the component frame spike 4 are triangular structures, forming a spike structure. The tip of the component frame spike 4 can contact the upper surface of the bottom mounting plate of the component frame 9, and the elastic deformation of the component frame spike 4 itself applies a certain pressure to the component frame 9, thereby preventing the component frame 9 from moving relative to the slot 1.

[0035] In some specific embodiments, the length of the component frame slot 3 needs to maintain a certain distance between the edge of the component frame 9 and the component frame spike 4 to prevent the component frame 9 from falling out of the clip 2. In some more specific embodiments, the contact position between the tip of the component frame spike 4 and the bottom mounting plate of the component frame 9 is at the middle part of the bottom mounting plate of the component frame 9. In some more specific embodiments, the tip of the component frame spike 4 is at least 5 cm away from the edge of the bottom mounting plate of the component frame 9.

[0036] In some specific embodiments, the card baffle 8 is a bent plate extending outward from one end of the side wall of the card 2. The card protrusion 7 is a bent plate extending outward from the outer side of the side wall of the card 2. The angle between the card baffle 8 and the side wall of the card 2 is 90 degrees, and the angle between the card protrusion 7 and the side wall of the card 2 is greater than 90 degrees.

[0037] In some specific embodiments, the angle between the card protrusion 7 and the side wall of the card 2 is 150 degrees or 135 degrees.

[0038] In some specific embodiments, the end of the protruding part 7 extends beyond the outer side wall of the card part 2, so that the end of the protruding part 7 can abut against the side wall of the card part 2 around the card hole 5, preventing the card part 2 from detaching from the card frame 1. When it is necessary to remove the card part 2, the protruding part 7 is squeezed from both sides, so that the end of the protruding part 7 is retracted to a width smaller than the card hole 5. At this time, the protruding part 7 can pass through the card hole 5, thereby realizing the separation of the card part 2 from the card frame 1.

[0039] It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, it is obvious that this utility model is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this utility model. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Therefore, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within this utility model, and no reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0040] This specification uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this utility model. The descriptions of the above embodiments are only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of this utility model. In summary, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
