[0026] Example 1

[0027] Please see Figures 1-2 The present invention provides an embodiment of a folding photovoltaic corner device, comprising a base plate 1 and a top plate 3. The two adjacent sides of the base plate 1 and the top plate 3 are connected by side plates 2. The base plate 1 and the top plate 3 are arranged in parallel. A fastening plate 4 is provided on the base plate 1, and the fastening plate 4 is located between the base plate 1 and the top plate 3.

[0028] The base plate 1 is provided with a groove for accommodating the fastening plate 4. The fastening plate 4 is located in the groove of the base plate 1 and is slidably connected to the groove of the base plate 1.

[0029] Several sets of limiting rods 7 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the fastening plate 4, and the limiting rods 7 are slidably connected to the base plate 1.

[0030] The bottom surface of the fastening plate 4 is rotatably connected to a fastening bolt 5, which is threaded onto the base plate 1, and the end of the fastening bolt 5 away from the fastening plate 4 passes through the base plate 1.

[0031] A knob 6 is fixedly connected to the end of the fastening bolt 5 away from the fastening plate 4.

[0032] The area of ​​the top plate 3 is smaller than the area of ​​the bottom plate 1.

[0033] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above scheme are as follows:

[0034] This application sets up a base plate 1, a side plate 2, and a top plate 3 and covers the corners of the photovoltaic panel. In the event of an impact, the base plate 1, side plate 2, and top plate 3 provide cushioning and protection, greatly avoiding damage to the photovoltaic panel.

[0035] Furthermore, the area of ​​the top plate 3 is smaller than that of the bottom plate 1. After the photovoltaic panel is covered, the top plate 3 only acts on the side of the photovoltaic panel and will not affect the conversion efficiency of the photovoltaic panel. Therefore, there is no need to disassemble this structure during subsequent use.

[0036] After the base plate 1, side plate 2, and top plate 3 are fitted onto the corners of the photovoltaic panel, turn the knob 6 to rotate the fastening bolt 5, so that the fastening plate 4 is close to the top plate 3. This operation can securely fix the base plate 1, side plate 2, and top plate 3.

[0037] The setting of the limiting rod 7 ensures that the fastening plate 4 is always parallel to the top plate 3, which can effectively prevent uneven force on the photovoltaic panel during the fastening process.

[0038] Example 2

[0039] Please see Figures 3-4 Based on embodiment 1, a mounting bracket 9 is provided on the outer side of the side plate 2, and the mounting bracket 9 is connected to the side plate 2 through an elastic bracket 8.

[0040] The elastic frame 8 includes a first transmission rod 11 and a second transmission rod 12, which are arranged to slide in a cross manner.

[0041] The first transmission rod 11 and the second transmission rod 12 are both rotatably connected to a fixing block 10 at one end on the same side, and the fixing block 10 is fixedly connected to the side plate 2;

[0042] The first transmission rod 11 and the second transmission rod 12 are each rotatably connected to a sliding block 13 at one end on the other side. The sliding block 13 is slidably connected to the slide groove 14, and the slide groove 14 is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 9.

[0043] A spring 15 is provided between the sliding block 13 and the end of the slide groove 14, and the two ends of the spring 15 are fixedly connected to the ends of the sliding block 13 and the slide groove 14, respectively.

[0044] A spring 15 is provided between the two sets of sliding blocks 13, and the two ends of the spring 15 are fixedly connected to the two sets of sliding blocks 13 respectively.

[0045] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above scheme are as follows:

[0046] When the photovoltaic panel is impacted, the side plate 2 will squeeze the first transmission rod 11 and the second transmission rod 12. The first transmission rod 11 and the second transmission rod 12 will deflect, causing the sliding block 13 to move, squeezing or stretching the spring 15 to counteract the force acting on the photovoltaic panel, thus buffering and preventing damage to the photovoltaic panel.

[0047] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
