Description
Technical Field

[0002] Photovoltaic equipment refers to various devices used in solar photovoltaic power generation systems. As the photovoltaic equipment market expands year by year, the demand for photovoltaic equipment is booming, and the corresponding installation fixtures are also showing a rapid increase in demand.
[0003] Chinese patent (authorization announcement number: CN 222169675 U, authorization announcement date: 2024.12.13) proposes an installation clamp for photovoltaic equipment. This installation clamp for photovoltaic equipment, by setting a clamping unit, places a clamping block into a T-shaped groove opened on the upper surface of the base plate, and rotates the clamping block to engage with the T-shaped groove. Then, rotating the first nut causes the pressure plate and gasket to move down and squeeze the first and second photovoltaic lightweight flexible components until the first and second photovoltaic lightweight flexible components are fixed. The fixing method is simple and efficient, and solves the problem of inconvenience in fixing photovoltaic lightweight flexible components with rivets during use, as mentioned in the background technology.
[0004] However, the photovoltaic panels installed by the above-mentioned mounting clamps can only be installed horizontally, and the installation angle cannot be adjusted according to the installation scenario. As a result, the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic panels cannot be maximized, and the practicality is greatly reduced. In order to enable the photovoltaic panels to adjust the installation angle during installation, we propose a mounting clamp for photovoltaic equipment. Utility Model Content

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 protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] Please see Figure 1-7 This utility model provides a technical solution: an installation clamp for photovoltaic equipment, including two sets of limiting arms 1, with an adjustment assembly 4 and a clamping assembly 8 installed on the limiting arms 1. The clamping assembly 8 includes a support arm 16, which is rotatably installed with the corresponding limiting arm 1. The adjustment assembly 4 includes a limiting rod 11, which is hinged to the support arm 16. A mating block 12 is fixedly installed on the limiting arm 1, and a sliding groove 13 is provided on the mating block 12. A hinge block 14 is fixedly installed on the mating block 12 by two sets of first bolts and two sets of first nuts. The hinge block 14 is rotatably connected to the limiting rod 11. The clamping assembly 8 includes a pressure plate 17, a mounting slot on the support arm 16, and the pressure plate 17 is installed in the mounting slot. Three sets of protrusions 21 are fixedly installed on the pressure plate 17. The protrusions 21 are slidably connected to the support arm 16. Several limiting bolts 18 are threadedly connected to the support arm 16. A photovoltaic lightweight flexible module 2 is installed between the pressure plate 17 and the support arm 16. Several auxiliary slots 20 are opened on the pressure plate 17. A limiting plate 19 is rotatably installed at the bottom of the limiting bolts 18. The limiting plate 19 cooperates with the auxiliary slots 20.
[0027] In use, the support arm 16 is rotated, and the support arm 16 drives the hinge block 14 to slide in the sliding groove 13 on the mating block 12 through the limiting rod 11. After the support arm 16 is adjusted to a suitable angle, the two sets of second limiting holes on the hinge block 14 are aligned with the nearest first limiting hole. Then, the hinge block 14 is fixedly installed on the mating block 12 by two sets of first bolts and two sets of first nuts, thereby restricting the support arm 16 on the limiting arm 1, thus realizing the angle adjustment of the installation fixture. Then, the photovoltaic lightweight flexible module 2 is placed between the pressure plate 17 and the support arm 16. By rotating the limiting bolt 18, under the action of the protrusion 21 and the support arm 16, and the cooperation of the limiting plate 19 and the auxiliary groove 20, the pressure plate 17 is pressed onto the photovoltaic lightweight flexible module 2. The two sets of clamping components 8 firmly restrict the photovoltaic lightweight flexible module 2 on this installation fixture.
[0028] In Embodiment 1, a first placement hole 6 and a second placement hole 7 are provided on the limiting arm 1. Two sets of mounting blocks 10 are fixedly installed on the side of the limiting arm 1, and mounting holes are provided on the mounting blocks 10. Two sets of first limiting components 3 are installed between the limiting arms 1. The first limiting component 3 includes a hollow long rod 15, which passes through the left limiting arm 1. An auxiliary rod 22 is slidably installed inside the hollow long rod 15. Several through holes are provided on both the hollow long rod 15 and the auxiliary rod 22. The hollow long rod 15 and the auxiliary rod 22 are fixedly connected by several second bolts and several second nuts. A limiting threaded post 23 is threadedly connected to the left side of the hollow long rod 15. A first threaded section is provided on the right side of the auxiliary rod 22. The first threaded section is threadedly connected to the limiting post 24. The first placement hole 6 cooperates with the hollow long rod 15.
[0029] In use, after the support arm 16 is adjusted to the desired angle, the two sets of hollow long rods 15 are removed from the first placement hole 6. According to the size of the lightweight flexible photovoltaic module 2 being held, the auxiliary rod 22 is stretched to a suitable angle. Then, the through holes on the hollow long rod 15 are aligned with the through holes on the auxiliary rod 22. The hollow long rod 15 and the auxiliary rod 22 are fixedly connected together by several second bolts and several second nuts. Then, the hollow long rod 15 is inserted between the two sets of limiting arms 1. The limiting threaded post 23 is installed on the left side of the hollow long rod 15, and the limiting post 24 is installed on the right side of the auxiliary rod 22 to limit the distance between the two sets of limiting arms 1.
[0030] In Embodiment 2, unlike Embodiment 1, two sets of second limiting components 5 are installed between the limiting arms 1. The second limiting component 5 includes a mating rod 9, which passes between the two sets of limiting arms 1. The left side of the mating rod 9 is threadedly connected to a limiting threaded post 23, and the right side of the mating rod 9 is provided with a second threaded section, which is threadedly connected to a limiting post 24. The second placement hole 7 mates with the mating rod 9.
[0031] In use, remove the two sets of first limiting components 3, then push the auxiliary rod 22 into the hollow long rod 15, then insert the hollow long rod 15 into the first placement hole 6, then remove the photovoltaic lightweight flexible component 2, restore the two sets of support arms 16, then take out the two sets of mating rods 9 from the second placement hole 7, close the two sets of limiting arms 1, insert the two sets of mating rods 9 between the two sets of limiting arms 1, then install the limiting threaded post 23 on the left side of the mating rod 9, and install the limiting post 24 on the right side of the mating rod 9, thereby installing the two sets of limiting arms 1 together, thus realizing the storage of this installation fixture, greatly reducing the storage space of this installation fixture.
[0032] Working principle: During use, the support arm 16 is rotated, and the support arm 16 drives the hinge block 14 to slide in the sliding groove 13 on the mating block 12 through the limiting rod 11. After the support arm 16 is adjusted to a suitable angle, the two sets of second limiting holes on the hinge block 14 are aligned with the nearest first limiting hole. Then, the hinge block 14 is fixedly installed on the mating block 12 by two sets of first bolts and two sets of first nuts, thereby restricting the support arm 16 on the limiting arm 1, thus realizing the angle adjustment of the installation fixture. Then, the photovoltaic lightweight flexible module 2 is placed between the pressure plate 17 and the support arm 16. By rotating the limiting bolt 18, under the action of the protrusion 21 and the support arm 16, and the cooperation of the limiting plate 19 and the auxiliary groove 20, the pressure plate 17 is pressed onto the photovoltaic lightweight flexible module 2. The two sets of clamping components 8 firmly restrict the photovoltaic lightweight flexible module 2 on this installation fixture. This design realizes the angle adjustment of the installation fixture, allowing the photovoltaic lightweight flexible module 2 to work at a more suitable angle.
[0033] After the support arm 16 is adjusted to the desired angle, the two sets of hollow long rods 15 are removed from the first placement hole 6. According to the size of the lightweight flexible photovoltaic module 2 being clamped, the auxiliary rod 22 is stretched to a suitable angle. Then, the through holes on the hollow long rod 15 are aligned with the through holes on the auxiliary rod 22. The hollow long rod 15 and the auxiliary rod 22 are fixedly connected together by several second bolts and several second nuts. Then, the hollow long rod 15 is inserted between the two sets of limiting arms 1. The limiting threaded post 23 is installed on the left side of the hollow long rod 15, and the limiting post 24 is installed on the right side of the auxiliary rod 22 to limit the distance between the two sets of limiting arms 1. The mounting block 10 is used to install this mounting fixture onto the mounting frame.
[0034] When the mounting fixture needs to be stored, remove the two sets of first limiting components 3, then push the auxiliary rod 22 into the hollow long rod 15, then insert the hollow long rod 15 into the first storage hole 6, then remove the photovoltaic lightweight flexible component 2, restore the two sets of support arms 16, then take out the two sets of mating rods 9 from the second storage hole 7, close the two sets of limiting arms 1, insert the two sets of mating rods 9 between the two sets of limiting arms 1, then install the limiting threaded post 23 on the left side of the mating rod 9, and install the limiting post 24 on the right side of the mating rod 9, thereby installing the two sets of limiting arms 1 together, thus realizing the storage of the mounting fixture and greatly reducing the storage space of the mounting fixture.
