Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic operation platforms, specifically a photovoltaic module operation platform. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of my country's photovoltaic industry, a large number of photovoltaic power plants have entered the later operation and maintenance stage. Due to long-term exposure to sun and rain, some photovoltaic modules have begun to be damaged and need to be replaced.

[0003] In existing technologies, such as the Chinese utility model patent CN219952639U, "Photovoltaic Working Platform and Photovoltaic System," a photovoltaic working platform applied to a photovoltaic support structure is disclosed. The photovoltaic support structure has parallel purlins; the photovoltaic working platform has legs corresponding to two of the purlins, each leg having a slot for accommodating the purlin, the top wall of the slot abutting against the purlin, and the side of the photovoltaic working platform facing away from the legs supporting maintenance personnel. However, in actual photovoltaic power plant operations, each photovoltaic module in each branch is tightly arranged, leaving no gap to accommodate the legs, making it impossible to support the working platform. Furthermore, when the working platform has multiple layers, moving between different layers at such a height is extremely inconvenient and dangerous.

[0004] Currently, photovoltaic (PV) modules are typically installed on poles two to three meters high. During replacement, maintenance personnel must climb onto these modules to perform high-altitude work. This method presents several safety hazards: first, it's difficult to use safety belts and other protective measures; second, during module replacement, personnel need to step on other modules, and the slippery glass surface of PV modules makes movement difficult and unstable, increasing the risk of falls and injuries; third, there is insufficient space to store essential tools and equipment during replacement, and the tools, often made of iron, can easily damage other PV modules, increasing additional losses. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the technical shortcomings of insufficient stability for maintenance personnel when performing photovoltaic module maintenance at high altitudes, this utility model provides a photovoltaic module operation platform.

[0006] This utility model is implemented according to the following technical solution:

[0007] The photovoltaic module operation platform of this utility model is applied to a photovoltaic panel and includes a platform body. The lower wall of the platform body is shaped to match the upper surface of the photovoltaic panel, allowing the platform body to be laid flat on the photovoltaic panel. An insulating adhesive layer is provided on the lower wall of the platform body to prevent damage to the photovoltaic panel and to make the contact between the two more stable. A fixing device is provided at one end of the platform body. The fixing device is U-shaped and can hook onto the edge of the photovoltaic panel, thereby fixing the platform body to the photovoltaic panel. A conveying device is installed on the upper surface of the platform body for moving maintenance personnel working on the photovoltaic panel.

[0008] Preferably, the conveying device includes a drive mechanism, a control unit, and a conveyor belt; the drive mechanism is disposed at one end of the conveyor belt; the control unit is connected to the drive mechanism, and the control unit controls the drive mechanism to drive the conveyor belt to operate.

[0009] Preferably, the conveyor belt includes a conveyor belt, several rollers, and several idlers. The conveyor belt is made of rubber material. The rollers are respectively installed at both ends of the conveyor belt. The idlers are evenly installed between the rollers to support the conveyor belt and maintenance personnel.

[0010] Preferably, the platform body is made of anodized aluminum material.

[0011] Preferably, the upper wall of the fixing device is provided with a tool storage box and an anchor rod, the tool storage box and the anchor rod are connected side by side, the tool storage box is used to store tools, and the anchor rod is used to fix the platform body.

[0012] Preferably, the insulating adhesive layer is made of rubber.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] In use, this invention uses a U-shaped fixing device hooked onto the edge of the photovoltaic panel to secure the platform body to the panel. The lower wall of the platform body matches the upper surface of the photovoltaic panel, allowing the platform body to lie flat on the panel, resulting in a large and relatively stable contact area. An insulating layer is provided on the lower wall of the platform body, preventing mechanical damage to the photovoltaic panel surface during operation and acting as a buffer layer to increase the friction coefficient and improve the stability of the contact between the platform body and the photovoltaic panel. Furthermore, this invention includes a conveyor device installed on the upper surface of the platform body for moving maintenance personnel working on the photovoltaic panel. When maintenance personnel need to move back and forth, they simply need to activate the conveyor device to move them to the required position, preventing swaying caused by personnel movement, significantly reducing operational risks, and improving operational efficiency and safety. When using this invention, maintenance personnel do not need to directly step on the photovoltaic panel, thus reducing damage to the panel.

[0015] Therefore, using this utility model will make the operation more stable, effectively avoiding the personal safety hazards such as slipping when maintenance personnel are performing photovoltaic module maintenance and replacement. It can also avoid secondary damage to photovoltaic modules during the operation, providing maintenance personnel with a safe and efficient operating platform for repairing and replacing photovoltaic modules, improving operational safety, and effectively protecting photovoltaic modules from secondary damage.

[0021] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0022] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0023] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the position or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0024] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the photovoltaic module operation platform of this utility model is applied to a photovoltaic panel 20, including a platform body 10. The lower wall surface 114 of the platform body 10 has the same shape as the upper surface of the photovoltaic panel 20, allowing the platform body 10 to be laid flat on the photovoltaic panel 20. An insulating adhesive layer 115 is provided on the lower wall surface of the platform body 10 to prevent damage to the photovoltaic panel and to make the contact between the two more stable. An auxiliary device is provided at one end of the platform body 10. The auxiliary device is U-shaped and can be hooked on the edge of the photovoltaic panel, thereby fixing the platform body 10 to the photovoltaic panel. A conveying device 12 is installed on the upper surface of the platform body 10. The conveying device 12 is used to move the maintenance personnel working on the photovoltaic panel.

[0025] Understandably, in one embodiment, the platform body 10 and the upper surface of the photovoltaic panel 20 have the same shape, which allows the platform body 10 to be laid flat on the photovoltaic panel 20. The rectangular structure of the platform body 10 can be adapted to the photovoltaic panel 20 and can also be fixed more stably on the photovoltaic panel 20.

[0026] Optionally, the platform body 10 is made of anodized aluminum.

[0027] In one embodiment, the platform body 10 is made of lightweight aluminum alloy and undergoes anodizing for electrical conductivity protection. The anodizing process forms a dense oxide film on the aluminum alloy surface, which possesses high hardness and good wear resistance, effectively resisting friction and scratches and extending the service life of the aluminum alloy components. Simultaneously, the anodized film not only exhibits excellent corrosion resistance, preventing corrosive media from eroding the aluminum alloy substrate and protecting it from environmental factors, thus improving its durability in harsh environments, but also possesses good electrical insulation properties, preventing current flow and ensuring stable electrical performance.

[0028] Anodizing is an electrochemical process. In the electrolyte, aluminum alloy serves as the anode, and materials such as stainless steel serve as the cathode. When an applied current passes through the electrolyte, an oxidation reaction occurs at the anode, where aluminum atoms lose electrons and become aluminum ions. Simultaneously, oxygen ions in the electrolyte combine with the aluminum ions to form an aluminum oxide film on the surface of the aluminum alloy.

[0029] Optionally, the lower wall surface 114 of the platform body 10 is provided with an insulating adhesive layer 115, which is made of rubber.

[0030] The lower wall surface 114 of the platform body 10, which contacts the photovoltaic modules, is covered with an insulating rubber layer to prevent electrical conduction and damage to other photovoltaic modules. The main function of the insulating rubber is to prevent current from passing through, protecting the safety of personnel and equipment. For example, in electrical work, rubber can prevent current from passing through the human body, reducing the risk of electric shock. The insulating rubber layer 115 can prevent current leakage, protect electrical equipment from damage, and extend the service life of the equipment. The insulating rubber layer 115 has good elasticity and flexibility, which can play a role in buffering and shock absorption, reducing the impact of mechanical vibration on equipment and personnel. In one embodiment, the insulating rubber layer 115 is made of ethylene propylene rubber, which has excellent electrical insulation properties, ozone resistance, heat resistance, cold resistance, and aging resistance.

The U-shaped fixing device 11, with its U-shaped opening, can adapt to photovoltaic panels 20 of different shapes and materials, thus functioning effectively in various scenarios. During maintenance, the platform body 10 can be hung against the frame of adjacent photovoltaic panels 20, making the hook of the platform body 10 more stable and preventing it from falling. The lower wall surface 114 of the platform body 10 is provided with an insulating adhesive layer 115. This insulating adhesive layer 115 not only prevents the platform body from damaging the photovoltaic panels but also serves as a buffer layer for contact between the two, further increasing stability. It combines insulation and anti-slip functions, avoiding the risk of electric shock to maintenance personnel due to photovoltaic module current leakage during operation.

[0033] Optional, such as Figure 2 As shown, the transmission device 20 includes a drive mechanism 121, a control unit 122, and a conveyor belt 123; the drive mechanism 121 is disposed at one end of the conveyor belt 123; the control unit 122 is connected to the drive mechanism 121, and the control unit 122 controls the drive mechanism 121 to drive the conveyor belt 123 to operate.

[0034] The drive mechanism 121 is equipped with an electric motor and a reducer. The electric motor provides power, which is transmitted to the conveyor belt 123 through the reducer. The conveyor belt 123 moves the maintenance personnel to a suitable location for maintenance.

[0035] Optional, such as Figure 1 As shown, the conveyor belt 123 includes a conveyor belt 1231, a plurality of rollers 1232 and a plurality of idlers 1233. The conveyor belt 1231 is made of rubber material. The rollers 1232 are respectively installed at both ends of the conveyor belt 1231. The idlers 1233 are evenly installed between the rollers 1232 for supporting the conveyor belt 1231 and maintenance personnel.

[0036] In one embodiment, the conveyor belt 123 includes a conveyor belt 1231 made of rubber material, a roller 1232, and an idler roller 1233, which can be adjusted in both directions. Push-button switches 1221 are provided on both the left and right sides of the conveyor belt 123. A control module connected to the push-button switches 1221 is provided inside the conveyor belt 123. Maintenance personnel control the direction and speed of movement through the push-button switches 1221 on the left and right sides of the conveyor belt 123. The push-button switches 1221 are located on the left and right sides of the conveyor belt 123 to facilitate maintenance personnel to adjust the working position at any time.

[0037] The surface of the conveyor belt 1231 is provided with anti-slip patterns to increase the friction between the conveyor belt 1231 and maintenance personnel. Rollers 1232 are installed at both ends of the conveyor belt 1231 to drive the conveyor belt 1231 to roll. Idler rollers 1233 are installed between the two rollers 1232 to support the conveyor belt 1231 and maintenance personnel.

[0038] Optionally, the upper wall 13 of the fixing device 11 is provided with a tool storage box 111 and an anchor rod 112. The tool storage box 111 and the anchor rod 112 are connected side by side. The tool storage box 111 is used to store tools, and the anchor rod 112 is used to fix the platform body 10.

[0039] Understandably, such as Figure 2 As shown, a tool storage box 111 is provided on the upper wall 113 of the fixing device 11. The tool storage box 111 is connected side by side with the anchor rod 112, and the anchor rod 112 is used for safety rope hooks. After the maintenance personnel climb onto the platform body 10, they can hook the safety rope to the anchor rod 112 on the upper wall 113 of the fixing device 11 to further ensure the safety of high-altitude operations.

[0040] In one embodiment, the tool storage box 111 is made of silicone, which has extremely high resistivity and can effectively prevent current from passing through, prevent leakage and short circuit, and ensure the safety of equipment and personnel. The tool storage box 111 is made of soft insulating silicone to avoid impact damage.

[0041] In one embodiment, the operation involves the maintenance personnel securely attaching the platform body 10 to the frame of the adjacent photovoltaic module using the fixing device 11. The platform body 10 is laid flat on the adjacent photovoltaic module. After the platform body is fixed, the maintenance personnel attach the safety lock to the anchor rod 112 set on the fixing device 11, place the tools in the tool storage box 111, and squat on the conveyor belt 1231 with anti-slip pattern to perform maintenance on the photovoltaic module. When movement is required, the maintenance personnel operate the control switch 1221 to move the conveyor belt 123.
