Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic module technology, specifically a BIPV photovoltaic module connection clamp. Background Technology
[0002] BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaic) modules are a technology that integrates solar power generation into buildings, serving the dual functions of power generation and building materials. They come in various types, including photovoltaic roof tiles, photovoltaic curtain walls, and photovoltaic skylights. They combine aesthetics and functionality: flexible designs with customizable patterns and colors to meet architectural aesthetic needs. Structural advantages include the use of tempered glass, offering strong resistance to mold and mildew, high load-bearing capacity, and excellent sealing. High power generation is achieved through heterojunction modules, which generate 5%-6% more electricity than conventional cells. Safety is ensured by the absence of microcracks and hot spot effects, guaranteeing long-term stable operation.
[0003] The invention patent with publication number CN119210290B discloses a rooftop BIPV photovoltaic module, belonging to the field of photovoltaic equipment technology. By installing a cleaning roller within a drainage channel, and having the cleaning roller cooperate with an anti-interference unit and a traction unit, it prevents excessive accumulation of dust and debris in the drainage channel over time, thus preventing it from losing its drainage function. Furthermore, in conjunction with the anti-interference unit and the traction unit, it performs reciprocating motion on the surface of the photovoltaic panel to effectively clean bird droppings. This addresses the problem of dust and dirt accumulating on the surface of the photovoltaic module during long-term use, affecting light transmittance and reducing photoelectric conversion efficiency. Long-term neglect of cleaning leads to a decrease in power generation, failing to meet actual needs. Regular cleaning of the photovoltaic module surface is necessary. However, existing technologies using wind power for cleaning photovoltaic modules are ineffective, failing to effectively separate stubborn dirt from the photovoltaic module.
[0004] BIPV photovoltaic modules are fixed to the mounting bracket by snap fasteners during installation. At least four sets of snap fasteners are required to fix the four corners of the BIPV photovoltaic module during installation, which is cumbersome and inconvenient for quick assembly and disassembly of the BIPV photovoltaic module during use. To solve the above problems, this application proposes a BIPV photovoltaic module connection clamp. Utility Model Content
[0005] (I) Purpose of the utility model
[0006] To address the technical problems existing in the background art, this utility model proposes a BIPV photovoltaic module connection clamp. An adjusting screw can drive an adjusting crossbar through positive and negative threads, causing the adjusting crossbar to move the positioning clamps closer together or further apart. The positioning clamps are arranged back-to-back. When driven to move away from each other, the positioning clamps can be inserted into the inner cavity of the photovoltaic panel frame, thereby enabling rapid installation and removal of the photovoltaic panel, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0007] (II) Technical Solution
[0008] To solve the above technical problems, this utility model provides a BIPV photovoltaic module connection clamp, including a clamp base, a connecting crossbar welded between two adjacent sets of clamp bases, a connecting longitudinal bar provided in the middle of two adjacent sets of connecting crossbars, and the two ends of the connecting longitudinal bar welded to the connecting crossbar;
[0009] The connecting rod is rotatably provided with an adjusting screw at the middle, and the two ends of the adjusting screw are respectively provided with positive threads and negative threads;
[0010] The connecting crossbar is slidably provided with guide sleeves, which are symmetrically distributed at both ends of the connecting crossbar. An adjusting crossbar is welded between two adjacent sets of guide sleeves, and a positioning clamp is welded to the surface of each adjusting crossbar. The two sets of positioning clamps are arranged back to back.
[0011] Preferably, each clamping seat cavity is movably provided with a clamping top plate, and the bottom of each clamping top plate is threadedly connected to a locking screw.
[0012] Preferably, each of the adjusting crossbars has a connecting thread hole through its middle section, and both ends of the adjusting screw are threaded to the connecting thread hole through positive and negative threads, respectively.

[0017] The above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial technical effects:
[0018] 1. In this utility model, the BIPV photovoltaic module connecting clamp is engaged with the longitudinal beam of the mounting bracket through the clamp seat. By rotating the No. 1 locking screw, the No. 1 locking screw pushes the clamping top plate to rise under the action of the surface thread. The clamping top plate abuts against the lower surface of the longitudinal beam, which can realize the quick fixation of the BIPV photovoltaic module connecting clamp.
[0019] 2. In this utility model, a handwheel drives an adjusting screw to rotate. The two ends of the adjusting screw are threaded to the connecting thread holes on the surface of the adjusting crossbar through positive and negative threads, respectively. The two ends of the adjusting crossbar are slidably connected to the connecting crossbar through guide sleeves. The guide sleeves guide the movement of the adjusting crossbar. At the same time, the adjusting screw drives the adjusting crossbar through positive and negative threads, causing the adjusting crossbar to move the positioning clamps closer to or further apart. The positioning clamps are arranged back to back. When they are driven to move away from each other, the positioning clamps can be inserted into the inner cavity of the photovoltaic panel frame, thereby enabling the photovoltaic panel to be quickly installed through the positioning clamps.

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of this utility model.
[0027] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the present invention proposes a BIPV photovoltaic module connection fixture, including a clamping base 1, a connecting crossbar 3 welded between two adjacent sets of clamping bases 1, and a connecting longitudinal bar 4 provided in the middle of two adjacent sets of connecting crossbars 3, the two ends of the connecting longitudinal bar 4 being welded to the connecting crossbar 3.
[0028] The connecting rod 4 is rotatably provided with an adjusting screw 9 in the middle, and the two ends of the adjusting screw 9 are respectively provided with positive thread 10 and negative thread 11.
[0029] The connecting crossbar 3 is slidably provided with guide sleeves 5. The guide sleeves 5 are symmetrically distributed at both ends of the connecting crossbar 3. An adjusting crossbar 6 is welded between two adjacent sets of guide sleeves 5. A positioning clamp 7 is welded to the surface of each adjusting crossbar 6. The two sets of positioning clamps 7 are arranged back to back.
[0030] It should be noted that the adjustment screw 9 is rotated by the handwheel. The two ends of the adjustment screw 9 are threaded to the connecting thread holes 8 on the surface of the adjustment crossbar 6 through the positive thread 10 and the negative thread 11, respectively. The two ends of the adjustment crossbar 6 are slidably connected to the connecting crossbar 3 through the guide sleeve 5. The guide sleeve 5 can guide the movement of the adjustment crossbar 6. At the same time, the adjustment screw 9 can drive the adjustment crossbar 6 through the positive thread 10 and the negative thread 11, so that the adjustment crossbar 6 drives the positioning clamps 7 to move closer or further apart. The positioning clamps 7 are arranged back to back. When they are driven to move away from each other, the positioning clamps 7 can be inserted into the inner cavity of the photovoltaic panel frame, so that the photovoltaic panel can be quickly installed through the positioning clamps 7.
[0031] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown, each of the clamping seats 1 has a clamping top plate 2 movably mounted in its inner cavity, and each of the clamping top plates 2 has a locking screw threaded to its bottom.
[0032] It should be noted that rotating the No. 1 locking screw causes the No. 1 locking screw to push the clamping top plate 2 to rise under the action of the surface thread. The clamping top plate 2 then abuts against the lower surface of the longitudinal beam, which can achieve rapid fixation of the BIPV photovoltaic module connection clamp.
[0033] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, each of the adjusting crossbars 6 has a connecting thread hole 8 through its middle section. The two ends of the adjusting screw 9 are threaded to the connecting thread hole 8 through a positive thread 10 and a negative thread 11, respectively. The adjusting screw 9 has a connecting shaft 12 in its middle section, which is located between the positive thread 10 and the negative thread 11. The connecting longitudinal rod 4 has a rotating shaft hole 13 through its middle section, and the adjusting screw 9 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft hole 13 through the connecting shaft 12.
[0034] It should be noted that the middle part of the adjusting screw 9 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft hole 13 through the connecting shaft 12. The adjusting screw 9 can be fixed by the connecting longitudinal rod 4. The two ends of the adjusting screw 9 are respectively threaded to the connecting thread hole 8 through the positive thread 10 and the negative thread 11. The adjusting screw 9 can drive the adjusting crossbar 6 to move.
[0035] In this embodiment, as Figure 3As shown, the end of the adjusting screw 9 is threaded with a locking nut 14, which abuts against the surface of the adjusting crossbar 6.
[0036] It should be noted that rotating the locking nut 14, which abuts against the surface of the adjusting crossbar 6, can lock the adjusting screw 9 to ensure the stability of the photovoltaic panel installation.
[0037] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown, the guide sleeve 5 is threaded through with a second locking screw, which abuts against the surface of the connecting crossbar 3.
[0038] It should be noted that the No. 2 locking screw abuts against the surface of the connecting crossbar 3, and the guide sleeve 5 can be locked by the No. 2 locking screw to ensure the stability of the photovoltaic panel installation.
[0039] The working principle and usage process of this utility model: The BIPV photovoltaic module connecting clamp is engaged with the longitudinal beam of the mounting bracket through the clamp seat 1. Rotating the first locking screw causes the locking screw to push the clamping top plate 2 to rise under the action of the surface thread. The clamping top plate 2 abuts against the lower surface of the longitudinal beam, which can quickly fix the BIPV photovoltaic module connecting clamp. The handwheel drives the adjusting screw 9 to rotate. The two ends of the adjusting screw 9 are respectively connected to the connecting thread hole 8 on the surface of the adjusting crossbar 6 through the positive thread 10 and the negative thread 11. The two ends of the adjusting crossbar 6 are connected to the connecting crossbar 3 through the guide sleeve 5. The guide sleeve 5 guides the movement of the adjusting crossbar 6, while the adjusting screw 9 drives the adjusting crossbar 6 through the positive thread 10 and the negative thread 11, causing the adjusting crossbar 6 to move the positioning clamps 7 closer or further apart. The positioning clamps 7 are arranged back to back. When they are driven to move away from each other, the positioning clamps 7 can be inserted into the inner cavity of the photovoltaic panel frame, so that the photovoltaic panel can be quickly installed through the positioning clamps 7. Rotating the locking nut 14, the locking nut 14 abuts against the surface of the adjusting crossbar 6, which can lock the adjusting screw 9 to ensure the stability of the photovoltaic panel installation.
