Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of photovoltaic panel installation technology, and in particular relates to a photovoltaic panel splice sealing clip. Background Technology

[0002] In photovoltaic (PV) power generation systems, the installation and securing of PV panels is a crucial step. Traditional PV panel installation methods often involve directly fixing the panels to the bracket using screws and clips. This method, however, leaves gaps at the panel joints, allowing rainwater to seep into the mounting frame below and onto the back of the PV panel. This can damage the wiring connections and inverters on the back of the PV panel, ultimately affecting the panel's power generation efficiency and lifespan. Furthermore, while projects now use PV panels above roads to create green roads, the dripping water from the gaps between the panels obstructs the passage of vehicles and pedestrians.

[0003] Therefore, developing a photovoltaic panel splice sealing clip that is simple in structure, easy to install, and has excellent waterproof performance is of great practical significance. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a photovoltaic panel seam sealing clip, which achieves nail-free installation and efficient sealing of photovoltaic panel seams through a unique design of support clips, rubber strips and clamping clips.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model relates to a photovoltaic panel seam sealing clip, comprising a support clip, a rubber strip, and a clamping clip. The support clip includes a rectangular tube. Two partition plates are integrally formed on the upper surface of the rectangular tube, arranged along its length, and the two partition plates are symmetrically arranged about the center of the rectangular tube. The rubber strip is clipped onto the photovoltaic panel frame. The clamping clip includes a horizontal pressure plate, and the width of the horizontal pressure plate is not less than the width of the rectangular tube. A clip strip is integrally formed on the lower surface of the horizontal pressure plate, arranged along its length. The clip strip engages with the two partition plates in a groove. The photovoltaic panel frame and the rubber strip mounted on it are pressed and installed between the upper surface of the rectangular tube and the lower surface of the horizontal pressure plate.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the card strip has protrusions on its opposite sides along its length; the two partition plates have grooves on their opposite inner walls along their length that mate with the protrusions.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a row of first pressure strips is integrally formed on the upper surface of the rectangular tube located outside the partition plate.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a row of second pressure strips is integrally formed on the lower surface of the horizontal pressure plate on both sides of the card strip.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the top surface of the horizontal pressure plate is configured as an arc surface.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the upper and lower walls of the rectangular tube are provided with a row of first circular through holes, and the first circular through holes are located between the two partition plates.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the horizontal pressure plate and the card strip are provided with a row of second circular through holes.

[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. This utility model can quickly seal the longitudinal gap between two photovoltaic panels by combining the supporting clip, rubber strip and clamping clip. The clip has a protrusion on the opposite side and a groove on the opposite inner wall of the partition plate to cooperate with the protrusion. This realizes the nail-free installation and clamping of the photovoltaic panel between the supporting clip and the clamping clip, which improves the stability and convenience of installation.

[0015] 2. The rubber strip of this utility model is clamped onto the frame of the photovoltaic panel, serving a sealing and waterproof function, while also improving the airtightness of the longitudinal gaps in the clamped photovoltaic panel. By setting the first and second pressure strips, multiple water-proof structures are formed between the rubber strip and the first pressure strip, effectively improving the overall impermeability of the sealed clamp after installation.

[0016] 3. The rectangular tube body of this utility model has a row of first through holes on both its upper and lower walls, facilitating the quick and easy installation of the support clips onto the steel frame using bolts or self-tapping screws. The horizontal pressure plate and the clip strip have a row of second through holes, facilitating the quick and easy installation of the clamping clips onto the support clips using self-tapping screws, ensuring long-term stability and reliability.

[0017] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

[0024] 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 scope of protection of the present utility model. Specific Implementation Example 1:

[0026] Please see Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model is a photovoltaic panel seam sealing clip, including a supporting clip 1, a rubber strip 2, and a clamping clip 3. The supporting clip 1 includes a rectangular tube 11. Two partition plates 12 are integrally formed on the upper surface of the rectangular tube 11, arranged along its length, and the two partition plates 12 are symmetrically arranged about the center face of the rectangular tube 11. The rubber strip 2 has a C-shaped cross-section. The rubber strip 2 is clipped onto the photovoltaic panel frame. The clamping clip 3 includes a horizontal pressure plate 31, and the width of the horizontal pressure plate 31 is not less than the width of the rectangular tube 11. A clip 32 is integrally formed on the lower surface of the horizontal pressure plate 31, arranged along its length. The clip 32 engages with the slots between the two partition plates 12. The photovoltaic panel frame and the rubber strip 2 mounted on it are pressed between the upper surface of the rectangular tube 11 and the lower surface of the horizontal pressure plate 31. The support clip 1 and clamping clip 3 connect and close the longitudinal gaps of the photovoltaic panel. The rubber strip 2 acts as a sealant between the photovoltaic panel and the support clip 1 and clamping clip 3, while also improving the airtightness of the longitudinal gaps of the photovoltaic panel. The transverse gaps of the photovoltaic panel are filled with structural sealant, with the upper end of the sealant not exceeding the height of the photovoltaic panel frame to ensure smooth water flow along the photovoltaic panel matrix and prevent dust accumulation.

[0027] To secure the photovoltaic panel between the support clip 1 and the clamping clip 3 without nails, protrusions (not shown in the figure) are provided on the opposite sides of the clip 32 along its length. The inner walls of the two partition plates 12 have grooves (not shown in the figure) that mate with the protrusions along their length. The clamping clip 3 is driven into the grooves of the partition plates 12 by striking with a rubber mallet, thus ensuring stability of the photovoltaic panel during nail-free installation by the support clip 1 and the clamping clip 3.

[0028] The upper surface of the rectangular tube 11, located outside the partition plate 12, has an integrally formed row of first pressure strips 13. The lower surface of the horizontal pressure plate 31, located on both sides of the retaining strip 32, has an integrally formed row of second pressure strips 33. By setting one row of first pressure strips 13 and one row of second pressure strips 33, a multi-layered waterproof structure is formed between the strip and the rubber strip 2, effectively improving the overall impermeability of the sealed fitting after installation.

[0029] In order to allow water to slide down quickly from the top of the clamping piece 3, the top surface of the horizontal pressure plate 31 is set as an arc surface.

[0030] To facilitate the installation of the support bracket 1 onto the steel frame, a row of first through holes 14 is provided on both the upper and lower walls of the rectangular tube 11, and the first through holes 14 are positioned between the two partition plates 12. The support bracket 1 can be quickly and securely installed onto the steel frame using bolts or self-tapping screws through the first through holes 14.

[0031] To ensure long-term stability and reliability after the clamping clip 3 is connected to the supporting clip 1, a row of second through holes 34 is provided on the horizontal pressure plate 31 and the clip strip 32. The clamping clip 3 can be quickly and securely installed onto the supporting clip 1 using self-tapping screws.
