AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing photovoltaic tracking brackets suffer from insufficient self-locking capability when driven at a single point, and high cost when driven at multiple points.

Method used

Design a photovoltaic tracking bracket, which consists of a support frame, a driving component, a self-locking component, and a damping component. The driving component transmits power to the main beam through the damping component and the self-locking component. The self-locking component has an active shaft and a passive shaft to achieve multi-point locking. The damping component provides a damping structure to resist wind pressure.

Benefits of technology

This improved system reliability and reduced costs, while also minimizing wind-induced vibrations, ensuring the stability of the photovoltaic panels and increasing energy output.

Abstract

This application relates to a photovoltaic tracking bracket and a photovoltaic system. The photovoltaic tracking bracket includes a support frame, a driving component, at least one self-locking component, at least one damping component, and multiple main beam segments. The driving component, each locking component, and each damping component are spaced apart on the support frame along a first direction. Both ends of the driving component, self-locking component, and damping component are drivenly connected to the main beam, and any adjacent pairs of the driving component, each locking component, and each damping component share a main beam segment. The self-locking component has a driving shaft and a driven shaft. The driving shaft is configured to operably drive the driven shaft to rotate, while the rotation of the driven shaft is restricted, and the driven shaft is located on the side away from the driving component. The driving component is used to drive the corresponding main beam to rotate and transmits power to the main beam located at the end through the damping component and the self-locking component. Only one driving component is provided on the support frame, and the remaining self-locking points are set through the self-locking components to form a multi-point locking effect on the support frame, thereby making the system more reliable and the product cost lower.
