Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic power generation equipment technology, and in particular to a quick adjustment and locking device for a photovoltaic power station support. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of clean energy, photovoltaic power generation, as an important way to utilize renewable energy, has been widely used in various regions. A photovoltaic power station typically consists of multiple photovoltaic modules, which need to be tilted towards the sun at the optimal angle to achieve maximum power generation efficiency. Because the sun's position changes constantly over time, fixed installation methods are no longer sufficient to meet the demands of high-efficiency power generation. Therefore, more and more photovoltaic systems are adopting support structures with angle adjustment capabilities to improve energy utilization and system adaptability.

[0003] Most photovoltaic (PV) mounting systems on the market currently rely on manual adjustment or simple electric adjustment devices. The adjustment process is time-consuming and lacks an effective locking mechanism, making them prone to displacement under external forces such as wind, affecting power generation stability. Furthermore, most devices cannot achieve rapid positioning and secure locking after angle adjustment, preventing PV modules from maintaining optimal sunlight exposure for extended periods and reducing the overall system's operating efficiency and reliability.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a rapid adjustment and locking device for photovoltaic power station brackets to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0022] Example: A quick-adjustment and locking device for a photovoltaic power station support structure, such as... Figures 1-5As shown, the system includes a base 1, a control panel 101, a support frame 2, a limit block 3, a first motor 8, an adapter block 9, a fixing block 10, a Z-shaped rod 12, a mounting bracket 13, an adjustment assembly, and a locking assembly. The control panel 101 is located in the center of the bottom of the base 1. The support frame 2 is installed on the outer periphery of the top of the base 1. The upper left and right sides of each support rod of the support frame 2 are connected to the limit block 3 by bolts. The first motor 8 with its output shaft facing upward is installed in the top of the support frame 2. Its output shaft passes through the top of the support frame 2 and is connected to the adapter block 9 by bolts. The upper part of the adapter block 9 is rotatably connected to the Z-shaped rod 12. The left end of the Z-shaped rod 12 is connected to the fixing block 10 by bolts. The front side of the fixing block 10 is connected to the mounting bracket 13 by bolts. The adjustment assembly is located between the top two sides of the base 1 and the support frame 2. The locking assembly is located between the support frame 2 and the adapter block 9. The first motor 8 is electrically connected to the control panel 101.

[0023] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the adjustment assembly includes a sliding frame 4, an electric push rod 7, a connecting rod 6, and a movable ring plate 11. The support rod of the support frame 2 is slidably connected to the sliding frame 4 on both sides. Each sliding frame 4 has a sliding groove 5 on both sides. The sliding groove 5 is slidably engaged with the limiting block 3. The top left and right sides of the base 1 are equipped with electric push rods 7 with their output ends facing upwards. The output ends of the electric push rods 7 are connected to the connecting rods 6 by bolts. The front and rear ends of the connecting rods 6 are fixedly connected to the corresponding sliding frames 4. The top of the sliding frames 4 is connected to the movable ring plate 11 by bolts. The inner ring of the movable ring plate 11 has a limiting groove. The lower right end of the Z-shaped rod 12 is slidably connected to the limiting groove on the movable ring plate 11. The electric push rod 7 is electrically connected to the control panel 101.

[0024] like Figure 4 As shown, the locking assembly includes a second motor 15, a screw 16, a slider 17, a guide rod 20, an engagement ring 19, and a snap ring 18. The second motor 15, with its output shaft facing upward, is installed on the top left side inside the support frame 2. Its output shaft passes through the top of the support frame 2 and is connected to the screw 16 by welding. The slider 17 is threaded onto the screw 16. The guide rod 20 is slidably connected to the top right side of the support frame 2. The engagement ring 19 is connected to the guide rod 20 and the slider 17 by welding. The snap ring 18 is connected to the bottom of the adapter block 9 by welding. The engagement ring 19 is located directly below the snap ring 18 and engages with it. The second motor 15 is electrically connected to the control panel 101.

[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, it also includes a light sensor 14, a ring 22, a locking rod 21, a ground nail 24, and a striking plate 25. The light sensor 14 is installed at the bottom of the mounting bracket 13. The ring 22 is connected to the left side of the fixing block 10 by bolts. Multiple round holes 23 are opened on the periphery of the ring 22. The locking rod 21 is connected to the top left side of the slider 17 at the position corresponding to the ring 22 by bolts. The locking rod 21 is adapted to the round holes 23. Ground nails 24 are installed on the top left and right sides of the base 1. Each ground nail 24 is equipped with a striking plate 25 on its top. The light sensor 14 and the control panel 101 are electrically connected.

[0026] This device, through the organic coordination of a base 1, control panel 101, support frame 2, limit block 3, first motor 8, adapter block 9, fixing block 10, Z-shaped rod 12, mounting frame 13, adjustment components, locking components, and auxiliary structures, achieves automated, rapid adjustment and stable locking of the photovoltaic support angle. During daily operation, the light sensor 14 continuously collects ambient light information and transmits the data to the control panel 101 in real time. Based on the current sun position and a preset tracking strategy, the control panel 101 automatically determines whether to adjust the tilt angle or horizontal direction of the mounting frame 13.

[0027] When angle adjustment is required, the control panel 101 first starts the first motor 8, driving its output shaft to rotate, which in turn rotates the adapter block 9 fixedly connected to it. This causes the fixed block 10 and the mounting bracket 13 to deflect horizontally together, achieving fine adjustment of the horizontal angle of the mounting bracket 13 to adapt to changes in the solar azimuth angle. Simultaneously, the electric push rod 7 in the adjustment assembly operates synchronously according to the control signal, pushing the sliding frame 4 to move up and down along the support rod. The sliding frame 4 is linked by the connecting rod 6, causing the top moving ring plate 11 to move together. The ring limiting groove on the inner side of the moving ring plate 11 guides the Z-shaped rod 12 to slide along a specific trajectory. Since one end of the Z-shaped rod 12 is connected to the fixed block 10, and the other end can slide within the limiting groove, fine adjustment of the pitch angle of the mounting bracket 13 is achieved through the fixed block 10, resulting in precise matching of the solar altitude angle.

[0028] After angle adjustment, to ensure system stability under wind load or other external forces, control panel 101 can achieve a stabilizing effect by adjusting the locking components. First, the second motor 15 is started, driving screw 16 to rotate, which in turn drives slider 17, guide rod 20, and engagement ring 19 to slide upwards. Guide rod 20 provides guidance, and engagement ring 19 gradually approaches the snap-fit ​​ring 18 at the bottom of adapter block 9, eventually achieving a tight engagement and forming a mechanical locking structure, effectively preventing displacement caused by external disturbances. At this time, the angle of fixing block 10 and mounting bracket 13 is maintained in a locked state, ensuring that the photovoltaic module is always in the optimal light-receiving surface.

[0029] Furthermore, the structure of the ring 22 and the locking lever 21 further enhances the positioning accuracy of the angle adjustment. When the angle is adjusted to a certain set position, the locking lever 21 inserts into the corresponding positioning hole, serving as an auxiliary locking mechanism and providing feedback confirmation, thereby improving the operational stability and user experience of the system. Simultaneously, the ground nails 24 on both sides of the top of the base 1 are hammered into the ground by the striking plate 25, enhancing the overall fixation strength between the device and the ground, significantly improving wind resistance and installation reliability.

[0030] The entire device is compact, responsive, and highly precise in adjustment. The metal components undergo anti-corrosion treatment, such as galvanizing, anodizing, or spraying with anti-rust coatings, to improve their service life and stability in outdoor environments. The non-metallic parts are made of composite materials with good weather resistance, which can effectively resist the effects of ultraviolet radiation, temperature changes, and humid and hot environments, ensuring long-term stable operation of the device. It is suitable for photovoltaic power station application scenarios under various complex terrains and climatic conditions, and can effectively improve power generation efficiency and reduce manual maintenance costs.
