Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic module frame technology, and in particular to a frame module without an A-side. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the installed capacity of large-scale ground-mounted power plants and distributed power plants is increasing year by year. The types of installed components and installation methods are also diverse. Large-scale ground-mounted power plants and most distributed power plants, using traditional framed solutions, have solved the challenges of moisture and load after component installation through technologies such as anodizing, hot-dip galvanizing, and UV resistance, achieving a lifespan of 25 years or even longer. Large-scale photovoltaic power plants generally have a large installed capacity, a large installation workload, and complex operation and maintenance. In contrast, distributed photovoltaic solutions are favored by residential customers. Distributed power plants have more stringent requirements for component appearance and electrical performance than conventional components. Most existing framed components have a long A-side, commonly known as "framed." In outdoor environments with large temperature variations, the frame can cause problems such as pressure between the frame and the glass surface of the photovoltaic module, leading to a reduction in the lifespan of the photovoltaic panel. This necessitates the replacement of the internal photovoltaic modules, increasing operating costs. Furthermore, traditional framed installations reduce the photovoltaic light-receiving area.

[0028] Please see Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a frame assembly without side A, which includes a base plate 10, at least two first limiting components 20, and at least two second limiting components 30. The base plate 10 has at least one first mounting groove 11 on its first and second sides, and a first snap-fit block 12 is disposed within each first mounting groove 11. The first and second sides are adjacent to each other. The base plate 10 also has at least one second mounting groove 13 on its third and fourth sides, and a second snap-fit block 14 is disposed within each second mounting groove 13. The first limiting components 20 are disposed on the first and second sides of the base plate 10. Each first limiting component 20 includes a first frame 21, with a first edge block 22 on one side of the top of the first frame 21 and a first pad 23 on the other side of the top of the first frame 21. A first glue-filling groove 24 is provided between the first frame 21 and the first edge block 22. A first mating plate 25 is fixedly installed on one side of the bottom of the first frame 21. The first mating plate 25 is configured to cooperate with the first snap-fit block 12 to adjust the installation position of the first frame 21 on the base plate 10. A second limiting component 30 is provided on the third and fourth sides of the base plate 10. The second limiting component 30 includes a second frame 31. A second edge block 32 is provided on one side of the top of the second frame 31. A second pad 33 is provided on the other side of the top of the second frame 31. A second glue-filling groove 34 is provided between the second pad 33 and the second edge block 32. A second mating plate 35 is fixedly installed on one side of the bottom of the second frame 31. The second mating plate 35 is configured to cooperate with the second snap-fit block 14 to be fixedly installed on the base plate 10.
[0029] Specifically, the first and second sides of the base plate 10 are symmetrically spaced with two first mounting grooves 11, and the first limiting component 20 is correspondingly disposed in the first mounting groove 11. The third and fourth sides of the bottom edge are symmetrically spaced with two second mounting grooves 13, and the second limiting component 30 is correspondingly disposed in the second mounting groove 13.
[0030] Specifically, the first mounting slot 11 and the first limiting component 20, the second mounting slot 13 and the second limiting component 30 are all installed through elastic deformation.
[0031] Specifically, the first frame 21 fixes the photovoltaic panel, the first edge block 22 is used to fix the side of the photovoltaic module, the first pad 23 fixes the bottom of the photovoltaic panel, and the first glue filling groove 24 fixes the photovoltaic panel with glue.
[0032] Specifically, the second frame 31 fixes the photovoltaic panel, the second edge block 32 is used to fix the side of the photovoltaic module, the second pad 33 fixes the bottom of the photovoltaic panel, and the second glue groove 34 fixes the photovoltaic panel with glue.
[0033] It can be seen that, through the cooperation of the base plate 10, the first limiting component 20 and the second limiting component 30, the compression between the frame and the glass surface of the photovoltaic module in outdoor environments with large temperature changes will not cause damage to the frame or the photovoltaic module, thus improving the service life of the photovoltaic module.
[0034] In one embodiment, the first snap-fit block 12 includes a first base 120. A plurality of first protrusions 121 are arranged at equal intervals along the length of the first base 120. An inclined guide surface is provided on the first side of the first protrusion 121. An adjusting member 122 perpendicular to the first base 120 is provided on the second side of the first protrusion 121. An elastic member 123 is provided between the adjusting member 122 and the second side wall of the first protrusion 121. The adjusting member 122 can reciprocate along the length of the first base 120. The first side and the second side are opposite sides.
[0035] As can be seen, the guide surface facilitates the smooth sliding of the second protrusion 251, improving installation efficiency. At the same time, the elastic element 123 and the adjusting element 122 enable the adjustment of thermal expansion and contraction between the frame and the glass surface of the photovoltaic module in outdoor environments with large temperature variations, thereby avoiding mutual damage between the frame and the photovoltaic module and improving the service life of the photovoltaic module.
[0036] In one embodiment, the periphery of the adjusting member 122 is provided with a chamfer.
[0037] Specifically, a guide portion 124 is provided on one side of the adjusting member 122.
[0038] As can be seen, the chamfered periphery of the adjusting component 122 serves as a guide when the first mating plate 25 engages with the first locking block 12, making the locking process smoother and reducing jamming. Simultaneously, the chamfer also reduces friction and wear between the adjusting component 122 and other parts, extending the service life of the components.
[0039] In one embodiment, the first docking plate 25 includes a second base 250. A plurality of second protrusions 251 are provided on the second base 250 at equal intervals corresponding to the first protrusion 121. The second protrusions 251 are configured to cooperate with the first protrusion 121 to connect the first base 120 and the second base 250, thereby connecting the first limiting component 20 and the base plate 10.
[0040] As can be seen, the second protrusion 251 corresponds to and cooperates with the first protrusion 121 of the first snap-fit block 12, which can accurately connect the first base 120 and the second base 250, thereby realizing the reliable connection between the first limiting component 20 and the base plate 10, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the connection, so that the frame component will not be displaced during use, and ensuring the reliability of the overall structure.
[0041] In one embodiment, the second snap-fit block 14 includes a third base 140. The third base 140 is provided with a plurality of third protrusions 141 at equal intervals along its own length direction. The first side of the third protrusion 141 is provided with an inclined guide surface, and the second side of the third protrusion 141 is provided with a limiting surface. The limiting surface is provided perpendicular to the third base 140, and the first side and the second side are opposite sides.
[0042] As can be seen, the third protrusion 141 is provided with an inclined guide surface and a vertical limiting surface. The guide surface facilitates the sliding of the fourth protrusion 351, while the limiting surface prevents the fourth protrusion 351 from sliding out in the opposite direction, thereby realizing the one-way fixation of the second limiting component 30 and the base plate 10 and ensuring the connection is firm.
[0043] In one embodiment, the second docking plate 35 includes a fourth base 350. A plurality of fourth protrusions 351 are equidistantly arranged on the fourth base 350 corresponding to the third protrusion 141. The fourth protrusions 351 are configured to cooperate with the third protrusion 141 to connect the third base 140 and the fourth base 350, thereby connecting the second limiting component 30 and the base plate 10.
[0044] As can be seen, the fourth protrusion 351 and the third protrusion 141 cooperate to connect the third base 140 and the fourth base 350, so that the second limiting component 30 is firmly installed on the base plate 10, ensuring the overall stability of the frame component, and the tight cooperation between the components to avoid deformation or damage.
[0045] In one embodiment, a cavity is provided inside the first frame 21 and the second frame 31, and at least one reinforcing rib 26 is provided on the inner wall of the cavity.
[0046] As can be seen, cavities are provided inside the first frame 21 and the second frame 31, and reinforcing ribs 26 are provided on the inner wall of the cavity. The reinforcing ribs 26 can effectively enhance the structural strength of the frame and improve the load-bearing capacity and deformation resistance of the frame assembly.
[0047] In one embodiment, both the first limiting component 20 and the second limiting component 30 are made of aluminum alloy.
[0048] As can be seen, the first limiting component 20 and the second limiting component 30 are made of aluminum alloy, which has the advantages of being lightweight, high-strength, and corrosion-resistant. Lightweight construction reduces the overall weight of the frame assembly, facilitating installation and handling; high strength ensures the structural stability of the frame assembly; and corrosion resistance allows the frame assembly to be used for a long time under different environmental conditions, reducing maintenance costs and replacement frequency.
