Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable laying technology, and in particular to a structure for laying DC cables across different arrays in a floating photovoltaic project. Background Technology
[0002] With the generally large installed capacity of new energy photovoltaic fields, especially water-based photovoltaics, in order to meet the construction requirements of "fishery-solar complementarity", the array spacing between different photovoltaic strings is large. The conventional method of laying DC cables with hot-dip galvanized steel pipes has to increase the diameter and thickness of the steel pipe wall to meet the requirements of large span, large cross-sectional area and large rigidity support, resulting in waste of engineering materials and increased engineering construction costs. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a structure for laying DC cables across different arrays in a floating photovoltaic project. This structure can meet the requirements for laying large-span cables between strings, significantly reducing project costs and improving construction efficiency. The aim is to overcome the technical problems of insufficient rigidity, high cost, and difficult construction associated with traditional galvanized steel pipes.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0005] A structure for laying DC cables across different arrays in a floating photovoltaic project includes precast pipe piles, pipe clamps installed at the same height positions of adjacent precast pipe piles, a steel wire rope fixed between two pipe clamps, and a cable protection pipe fixed on the steel wire rope.
[0006] The pipe clamp is connected to a tie rod, the tie rod is connected to a fastener, and the fastener is connected to a wire rope.
[0007] In the aforementioned structure for laying DC cables across different arrays in the floating photovoltaic project, the steel wire rope and the cable protection pipe are fixed together by several pipe clamps.
[0008] In the aforementioned floating photovoltaic project, the spacing between adjacent pipe clamps in the DC cable crossing structure between different arrays is less than 50cm.
[0009] The aforementioned structure for laying DC cables across different arrays in the floating photovoltaic project also includes DC cables, with the DC cable between two precast pipe piles being run through a cable protection pipe.
[0010] In the aforementioned structure for laying DC cables across different arrays in the floating photovoltaic project, the pipe clamp includes two half-clamps, with the two ends of the two half-clamps connected by bolts respectively; one end of the pull rod is hooked and fixed to the bolt, and the other end of the pull rod passes through the wire rope and is hinged and fixed by a fastener.
[0011] Beneficial effects:
[0012] Traditional methods using galvanized steel pipes require increased wall thickness to meet the rigidity requirements of large spans, resulting in high material consumption, high construction costs, and significant construction difficulties. In contrast, this invention only includes common construction site materials such as pipe clamps, wire ropes, tie rods, fasteners, pipe clamps, and cable protection pipes. The assembly structure and process are simple, effectively reducing construction difficulty and project costs. Furthermore, this invention is easy to disassemble and replace components later, making it widely applicable. Therefore, using this invention can optimize project scope, improve construction efficiency, and has no substantial impact on cable laying during implementation, ensuring the normal use of DC cables.
