Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic cells, and more specifically to an installation structure for a photovoltaic module. Background Technology

[0002] Existing patent document (publication number CN118573079A) discloses a clamping module and a photovoltaic system. The clamping module is fixed by both an upper clamping block and a lower clamping block. The upper clamping block presses against the top of the profile, while the lower clamping block can limit the profile in the horizontal direction, thereby improving the fixing strength.

[0003] However, the contact area between the pressure block assembly and the lower end of the profile in the aforementioned document is relatively small, making it easy for the profile to separate from the pressure block assembly under external force. The lower pressure block of the pressure block assembly is confined to the slot of the bracket and contacts the locking element, resulting in inflexible installation. Furthermore, the application scenarios for the pressure block assembly are relatively limited to a single type of bracket, thus preventing its application in different brackets and making it unsuitable for various usage environments.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a photovoltaic module installation structure that is highly stable, flexible in installation, and adaptable to different usage environments. Utility Model Content

Furthermore, in this specification, "upper" is not limited to the case of being formed in contact with an upper surface, but also includes the case of being formed separately on top, and also includes the meaning of an intermediate layer between layers.

[0107] This application provides an installation structure for photovoltaic modules, such as... Figures 1-5 and Figure 8 As shown, the mounting structure includes a pressing member 200, a locking member 300, a fastener 400, and a bracket 500. The pressing member 200 includes a bearing plate 210, a limiting part 220, a first fastening hole 250, and several abutting members 260. The limiting part 220 is located on the upper surface of the bearing plate 210, and the several abutting members 260 are located on the lower surface of the bearing plate 210. The first fastening hole 250 penetrates the bearing plate 210. The bearing plate 210 is used to support profiles (such as...) Figure 8 The bottom 601 (as shown) has a limiting part 220 for fixing the bottom 601 of the profile. The bracket 500 (as shown) Figure 8(As shown) includes a first slot 501, a first side 503, a second side 504, a first protrusion 505, and a second protrusion 506, with the first protrusion 505 and the second protrusion 506 respectively disposed on both sides of the first slot 501. A plurality of abutting members 260 are used to abut against the first protrusion 505 and the second protrusion 506, or a plurality of abutting members 260 are used to abut against the first side 503 and the second side 504, to fix the pressing member 200 and the bracket 500. The locking member 300 includes a locking groove 310 and a second fastening hole 313, the locking groove 310 being used to engage with the bracket 500; a fastener 400 is used to pass through the first fastening hole 250 and the second fastening hole 313.

[0108] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support plate 210 is rectangular, and the first fastening hole 250 is located at the center of the support plate 210. Four abutment members 260 are provided on the lower surface of the support plate 210. Each abutment member 260 extends downwards along a first direction AA' by a distance, and is relatively thin, forming a flattened rectangular shape. Two abutment members 260 are positioned opposite each other along the first edge 213 of the support plate 210, near the center of the first edge 213, and the other two abutment members 260 are positioned opposite each other along the second edge 214 of the support plate 210, near the center of the second edge 214. A locking member 300 is located below the support plate 210, with a second fastening hole 313 opposite to the first fastening hole 250. A fastener 400 passes through the second fastening hole 313 of the locking member 300, connecting the support plate 210 and the locking member 300 together.

[0109] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the locking member 300 includes a locking groove 310, and the locking member 300 is rotatable about the fastener 400. Figure 8 As shown, when locking is not required, the locking member 300 separates from the first protrusion 505 and the second protrusion 506. Figure 9 As shown, when locking is required, the locking groove 310 is aligned with the first protrusion 505 and the second protrusion 506 by rotating the locking member 300, and then the mounting structure is fixed on the bracket 500 by tightening the fastener 400.

[0110] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1-2 and Figure 7As shown, the limiting part 220 includes a first limiting part 230 and a second limiting part 240, which are respectively located in a first region 211 and a second region 212 on the upper surface of the bearing plate; the first limiting part 230 includes a first protrusion 231 and a second protrusion 232, with a first limiting groove 233 between the first protrusion 231 and the second protrusion 232, the first limiting groove 233 being used to engage with the bottom 601 of the profile, and the first protrusion 231 being used to engage or insert with the bottom 601 of the profile; the second limiting part 240 includes a third protrusion 241 and a fourth protrusion 242, with a second limiting groove 243 between the third protrusion 241 and the fourth protrusion 242, the second limiting groove 243 being used to engage with the bottom 601 of another profile, and the third protrusion 241 being used to engage or insert with the bottom 601 of the profile. The first limiting part 230 and the second limiting part 240 can limit the profile 600 in the second direction BB' to prevent the profile 600 from slipping off.

[0111] like Figures 6-7 As shown, the bottom 601 of the profile has a snap-fit ​​groove 603, and a snap-fit ​​protrusion 604 is provided between the snap-fit ​​groove 603 and the side of the profile 600 near the pressing member 200. The snap-fit ​​groove 603 is adapted to snap onto the first protrusion 231 or the third protrusion 241 of the pressing member 200, and the snap-fit ​​protrusion 604 is adapted to abut against the first limiting groove 233 or the second limiting groove 243 of the pressing member 200. The snap-fit ​​groove 603 and the first protrusion 231 or the third protrusion 241 are conformally fitted. The first protrusion 231 and the third protrusion 241 can be outwardly convex arcs, and the snap-fit ​​groove 603 is set to be inwardly concave arcs. When the snap-fit ​​protrusion 604 abuts against the first limiting groove 233, the second protrusion 232 fits against the outer side 602 of the profile 600 near the pressing member 200. When the snap-fit ​​protrusion 604 abuts against the first limiting groove 233, the fourth protrusion 242 adheres to the outer side 602 of the other profile 600 near the pressing member 200. The first region 211 and the second region 212 are located on both sides of the first fastening hole 250, and the first protrusion 231, the second protrusion 232, the third protrusion 241 and the fourth protrusion 242 are arranged near the first fastening hole 250, forming a symmetrical structure.

[0112] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1-2 and Figure 7As shown, the mounting structure also includes an upper pressure member 100, which includes an upper fastening portion 110 and a first pressing portion 120 located on a first side of the upper fastening portion 110. The first pressing portion 120 is used to fix the top 605 of the profile. The upper fastening portion 110 has a third fastening hole 140, and the fastener 400 is also used to pass through the third fastening hole 140. The upper pressure member 100 is disposed above the lower pressure member 200, and the upper pressure member 100 and the lower pressure member 200 cooperate to fix the profile 600. The first pressing portion 120 includes a first side plate 121 and a first pressure plate 122. The first side plate 121 extends from the edge of the first side of the upper fastening portion 110 along a first direction AA', and the first pressure plate 122 extends from the edge of the first side plate 121 away from the bearing plate 210 along a second direction BB' perpendicular to the first direction AA'.

[0113] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, the upper pressing member 100 has a symmetrical structure. Correspondingly, the upper pressing member 100 also includes a second pressing portion 130 located on the second side of the upper fastening portion 110, the second pressing portion 130 being used to fix the top 605 of another profile. The second pressing portion 130 includes a second side plate 131 and a second pressure plate 132. The second side plate 131 extends from the edge of the second side of the upper fastening portion 110 along a first direction AA' and in the same direction as the first side plate 121. The second pressure plate 132 extends from the edge of the second side plate 131 away from the bearing plate 210 along a second direction BB' perpendicular to the first direction AA' and in the opposite direction to the first pressure plate 122. The fastener 400 passes through the third fastening hole 140, connecting the upper pressing member 100, the lower pressing member 200, and the locking member 300 together.

[0114] It is understandable that, such as Figures 1-2 and Figures 6-7 As shown, to ensure that the upper pressing member 100 and the lower pressing member 200 simultaneously cooperate with the profile 600, when the first side plate 121 and the second side plate 131 of the upper pressing member 100 are attached to the profile 600, the snap-fit ​​protrusion 604 of the profile 600 precisely snaps into the first limiting groove 233 or the second limiting groove 243 of the lower pressing member 200. In this embodiment, the vertical projection of the first side plate 121 on the support plate 210 and the vertical projection of the second protrusion 232 on the support plate 210 overlap, and the vertical projection of the second side plate 131 on the support plate 210 and the vertical projection of the fourth protrusion 242 on the support plate 210 overlap. In some embodiments, the abutment member 260 is disposed between the second protrusion 232 and the fourth protrusion 242.

[0115] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-2 and Figures 6-7As shown, in some embodiments, the bottom 601 of the profile has a through-hole (not shown) insertion interface, which is adapted to insert into the first protrusion 231 or the third protrusion 241 of the pressing member 200. The portion of the bottom 601 of the profile located between the insertion interface and the outer side 602 of the profile is adapted to fit into the first limiting groove 233 or the second limiting groove 243 of the pressing member 200. The first protrusion 231 and the third protrusion 241 may be longer in the first direction AA' and inserted into the interior of the profile 600. The position of the insertion interface is not specifically limited in this application, but depends on the distance between the first protrusion 231 / third protrusion 241 and the second and fourth protrusions 232.

[0116] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the fastener 400 includes a bolt 401 and a spring 700 sleeved on the bolt 401. When the bolt 401 passes through the first fastening hole 250, the second fastening hole 313, and the third fastening hole 140, the two ends of the spring 700 abut against the opposing surfaces of the upper fastening part 110 and the lower pressure member 200, respectively. This arrangement allows the mounting components to be pre-assembled, simplifying positioning and installation. By tightening the fastener 400, the threaded connection between the fastener 400 and the locking member 300 generates a reverse movement, causing the upper pressure member 100 and the lower pressure member 200 to gradually move closer together, thus locking the top and bottom of the profile 600. Simultaneously, the distance between the locking member 300 and the bracket 500 gradually decreases, locking the locking member 300 to the bracket 500 and completing the installation of the mounting structure.
