Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of brackets, and in particular to a flexible photovoltaic bracket. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, Chinese utility model patent CN221709694U discloses a flexible photovoltaic support. While this support can tilt within a certain angle, improving its stability, it still presents other problems during use. For example, it lacks height adjustment; the distance between the top steel strands and the ground after the support is fixed is not adjustable. If used on a steep slope, this can cause the steel strands and photovoltaic panels to contact the ground, leading to wear and malfunctions. Furthermore, it is difficult to stretch and fix the steel strands. To ensure the steel strands are taut after fixing, personnel often need to use winding equipment during installation. This involves first fixing one end of the steel strand with a pressure plate, then straightening the other end and fixing it to another support with screws, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. To address these problems, we propose a flexible photovoltaic support. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a flexible photovoltaic support system that solves the problems of existing flexible supports lacking height adjustment function and being inconvenient for stretching and fixing steel strands.

[0004] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a flexible photovoltaic bracket, comprising two bases, a support plate rotatably connected to the top of the bases, a through groove opened inside the support plate, a first screw threadedly connected to the top of the support plate, a U-shaped plate rotatably connected to the top of the first screw via a bearing, a movable block rotatably connected inside the U-shaped plate, a second screw threadedly connected to one side of the movable block, a connecting seat rotatably connected to one side of the second screw via a bearing, two steel strands provided on one side of the bases, two mounting frames slidably sleeved on the surface of the steel strands, and connecting rings installed at both ends of the steel strands.

[0005] The above technical solution provides height adjustment, is easy to operate, improves the applicability and flexibility of the support system, and facilitates the stretching and fixing of the steel strands without the need for external assistance. This improves the tension of the steel strands after installation and enhances the wind resistance and stability of the photovoltaic panels.

[0006] The present invention is further configured such that: a third screw is threadedly connected to the bottom of the mounting frame, a limit plate is rotatably connected to the top of the third screw via a bearing, and a first throttle is welded to the bottom of the third screw.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the installation frame can be limited after sliding on the steel strand to a suitable position through the setting of the third screw, the limiting plate and the first throttle.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that: a second throttle is welded to the bottom end of the first screw, and a third throttle is welded to the other end of the second screw.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the second and third throttles facilitates the rotation of the first and second screws by personnel.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that two mounting holes are provided on the top of the base.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the through groove design makes it easy for personnel to install and fix the base with screws.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that the two steel strands are of the same length.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that both the first screw and the second screw are made of stainless steel.

[0014] Using the above technical solution, the first screw and the second screw have the characteristics of high strength, low density and excellent corrosion resistance.

[0015] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. This utility model first fixes two bases to a designated position with screws. After the bases are fixed, the second handle is held and rotated. When the second handle is rotated, it will drive the first screw to rotate. When the first screw rotates, it will drive the U-shaped plate to move upward. When the U-shaped plate moves upward, it will drive the connecting seat to move upward together. It can have a height adjustment function, is simple and convenient to operate, and improves the applicable environment and flexibility of the bracket.

[0017] 2. This utility model involves inserting the connecting rings at both ends of the steel strand into two connecting seats. After both steel strands are inserted, the third throttle is held by hand to rotate the second screw. When the second screw rotates, it causes the connecting seats to move outward. As the connecting seats move outward, they cause the connecting rings to move together, thus tautning the steel strands. Finally, the photovoltaic panel is placed on the mounting frame and fixed with screws. This method facilitates the stretching and fixing of the steel strands without the need for external assistance, improving the tension effect of the steel strands after installation and enhancing the wind resistance and stability of the photovoltaic panels.

A U-shaped plate 4 is rotatably connected to the top of the first screw 3 via a bearing. A movable block 5 is rotatably connected inside the U-shaped plate 4. The two bases 1 are first fixed to a designated position with screws. After the bases 1 are fixed, a second handle 14 is held and rotated. When the second handle 14 is rotated, it will drive the first screw 3 to rotate. When the first screw 3 rotates, it will drive the U-shaped plate 4 to move upward. When the U-shaped plate 4 moves upward, it will drive the connecting seat 7 to move upward together. It has a height adjustment function, is simple and convenient to operate, and improves the applicable environment and flexibility of the bracket.

By inserting the connecting rings 10 at both ends of the steel strands 8 into the two connecting seats 7 respectively, and after both steel strands 8 are in place, the third throttle 15 is held by hand to rotate the second screw 6. When the second screw 6 rotates, it will drive the connecting seat 7 to move outward. When the connecting seat 7 moves outward, it will drive the connecting ring 10 to move together and straighten the steel strands 8. Finally, the photovoltaic panel is placed on the mounting frame 9 and fixed with screws. This structure facilitates the stretching and fixing of the steel strands 8 without the need for external assistance, improves the tension effect of the steel strands 8 after installation, and enhances the wind resistance and stability of the photovoltaic panel.
