Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of photoelectric conversion technology, and more particularly to an installation device. Background Technology

[0002] Photovoltaic (PV) devices convert solar energy into electrical energy. A PV device consists of a PV support structure and PV modules. The support structure holds the PV modules, ensuring their surfaces receive ample sunlight. During installation, PV modules can be installed individually or assembled into a single PV array.

[0003] The method of installing each photovoltaic module individually is inefficient and significantly impacts the construction process. While assembling multiple photovoltaic modules into a semi-finished array requires installation equipment, current equipment is too heavy and bulky, lacks maneuverability, and is not well-suited to the site conditions.

[0043] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 The diagram shows a structural schematic of a photovoltaic device provided in some embodiments of this application. The photovoltaic device includes a photovoltaic support 200 and a photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 disposed on the photovoltaic support 200.

[0044] The photovoltaic support bracket 200 supports the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300. For example, the photovoltaic support bracket 200 may include columns and diagonal braces. The columns can be pre-installed on pile foundations, the ground, buildings, etc., and the diagonal braces can be fixed to the columns. The photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 is set on the columns and diagonal braces so that the photovoltaic modules 310 are spaced apart from the ground, buildings, etc. The columns and diagonal braces can provide a reference surface that is inclined relative to a horizontal surface as needed. The photovoltaic modules 310 installed on the photovoltaic support bracket 200 can extend within this reference surface so that the surface of the photovoltaic modules 310 receiving sunlight is adapted to the solar altitude angle.

[0045] The photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 includes multiple photovoltaic modules 310, which are connected by connectors to form a whole. The photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 can collect solar energy through the photovoltaic modules 310 and convert solar energy into electrical energy. During the installation process, the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 is generally installed on the photovoltaic bracket 200 using installation equipment. The photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 can be installed at an angle relative to the horizontal surface so that the surface of the photovoltaic modules 310 can receive more sunlight.

[0046] Figure 2 A non-limiting example of a photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 is shown. The connector includes multiple purlins 320 and multiple support beams 330. The purlins 320 are spaced apart and arranged in parallel, and the support beams 330 are also spaced apart and arranged in parallel. The purlins 320 and support beams 330 intersect and overlap to form a frame. Multiple photovoltaic modules 310 are arranged in an array and installed on the frame formed by the purlins 320 and support beams 330, thus constituting the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300. In other examples, the connector may also include a main axis capable of rotating the photovoltaic modules 310 about it. The photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 can be assembled in a factory. Compared to on-site assembly for outdoor photovoltaic installations, the assembly process can rely on specialized equipment, which helps improve installation accuracy and efficiency.

[0047] Due to the large weight and size of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300, installation equipment is required for hoisting the assembled photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300. However, the current installation equipment used for installing the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 is too heavy, lacks maneuverability when turning, and cannot well adapt to the site environment. To solve the above problems, this application provides a new installation equipment for hoisting, transferring, and installing the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300. The following description, in conjunction with the attached... Figures 1 to 8 The installation devices of various embodiments of this application will be described in detail.

[0048] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 3A schematic diagram of the structure of the installation device 100 provided in some embodiments of this application is shown.

[0049] This application provides an installation device 100, which includes a main vehicle 1 and a hoisting mechanism 2. The main vehicle 1 includes a vertical support component 11, a horizontal support component 12, and a traveling mechanism 13. One end of the vertical support component 11 is connected to the traveling mechanism 13, and the other end is connected to the horizontal support component 12. The horizontal support component 12 extends outward relative to at least one side of the vertical support component 11 along a first direction X to form a cantilever structure. The hoisting mechanism 2 is connected to the cantilever structure and has a degree of freedom of movement along the first direction X relative to the cantilever structure. A workspace is formed below the cantilever structure. The hoisting mechanism 2 is used to acquire a photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 within the workspace and hoist it to the installation position for installation.

[0050] The installation equipment 100 in this embodiment includes a main vehicle 1 and a hoisting mechanism 2 mounted on the main vehicle 1. The main vehicle 1 includes a traveling mechanism 13. When installing the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300, the entire installation equipment 100 can be moved to the working position by driving the traveling mechanism 13. The main vehicle 1 also includes a vertical support component 11 and a horizontal support component 12 mounted on the traveling mechanism 13. The horizontal support component 12 extends outward relative to at least one side of the vertical support component 11 along a first direction X to form a cantilever structure. The hoisting mechanism 2 is connected to the cantilever structure and has a degree of freedom of movement along the first direction X relative to the cantilever structure. Thus, after the installation equipment 100 moves to the working position, the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 can be obtained and hoisted onto the photovoltaic bracket 200 for installation by controlling the movement of the hoisting mechanism 2 relative to the cantilever structure in the first direction X, thereby meeting the installation requirements of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300. Furthermore, since the installation device 100 in this embodiment improves the main vehicle 1 into a single-sided cantilever structure, the structure of the main vehicle 1 can be simplified, and the overall weight of the installation device 100 can be reduced. In addition, the main vehicle 1 only needs to be equipped with a walking mechanism 13 on one side, making driving and turning more flexible, improving its passability in complex areas, and enhancing its applicability to the site environment.

[0051] It is understandable that, compared to the form in which vertical support components 11 are set on both sides of the horizontal support component 12, the installation equipment 100 in this embodiment, by adopting a cantilever structure with single-sided support, can reduce unnecessary support components while meeting the installation requirements of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300, thereby reducing the overall weight of the installation equipment 100. Furthermore, since the vertical support component 11 is set on only one side, the traveling mechanism 13 can also be set on only one side, thereby reducing the span of the traveling mechanism 13 along the first direction X, making the traveling mechanism 13 more flexible in its movement and turning, facilitating the movement of the installation equipment 100 to the working position, and making it more suitable for the installation of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 in environments such as deserts.

[0052] The working position that the installation equipment 100 needs to move to refers to a position where the working space under the cantilever structure of the main vehicle 1 can meet the acquisition and / or lifting requirements of the hoisting mechanism 2. In some embodiments, when the installation equipment 100 needs to move to the working position, the working space under the cantilever structure of the main vehicle 1 can cover the photovoltaic bracket 200 to be installed, or it can cover the transfer carrier 400 storing the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300, or it can cover both the photovoltaic bracket 200 to be installed and the transfer carrier 400 storing the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300.

[0053] Taking the simultaneous covering of the photovoltaic bracket 200 to be installed and the transfer carrier 400 storing the photovoltaic bracket 200 as an example, when the main vehicle 1 moves to the working position via the walking mechanism 13, the hoisting mechanism 2 can be moved relative to the cantilever structure along the first direction X to above the transfer carrier 400 storing the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300, and the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 can be retrieved from the transfer carrier 400. Then, the hoisting mechanism 2 can be moved relative to the cantilever structure along the first direction X to above the photovoltaic bracket 200, thereby hoisting the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 onto the photovoltaic bracket 200 for the installation of the photovoltaic device.

[0054] Optionally, the hoisting mechanism 2 can be slidably connected to the cantilever structure along the first direction X. In the embodiments of this application, the sliding connection between the two means that one is movable relative to the other in a specific direction. For the two slidably connected, there is no limitation on the specific implementation of the sliding connection. It can be any combination of structures such as slide rails, slide grooves, slide tracks, and sliding components such as sliders, pulleys, and rollers, or any other form that can realize the relative sliding of the two.

[0055] To facilitate a better understanding of the technical solution of this application, the structure of each component of the installation device 100 in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0056] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 4 , Figure 4A schematic diagram of the structure of the installation device 100 provided in some embodiments of this application is shown.

[0057] In some alternative embodiments, the lateral load-bearing assembly 12 includes at least two crossbeams 121 spaced apart along the travel direction Y of the main vehicle 1, with the two ends of the at least two crossbeams 121 connected by connecting beams 122 to form a rectangular frame structure. The vertical load-bearing assembly 11 includes at least two columns 111 spaced apart along the travel direction Y of the main vehicle 1, with each crossbeam 121 connected to the upper end of each column 111.

[0058] Wherein, the direction of travel Y of the main vehicle 1 refers to the direction in which the front of the vehicle is facing in the coordinate system centered on the main vehicle 1 itself, and the direction of travel Y of the main vehicle 1 intersects with the first direction X.

[0059] The vertical load-bearing component 11 and the transverse load-bearing component 12 are the main load-bearing bodies of the main vehicle 1. By setting the transverse load-bearing component 12 as at least two crossbeams 121 spaced apart along the travel direction Y of the main vehicle 1, and fixing the two crossbeams 121 together with two connecting beams 122 to form a rectangular frame structure, the weight of the transverse load-bearing component 12 can be reduced. Moreover, the rectangular frame structure has better structural stability and can effectively resist the bending moment and shear force at the end of the cantilever structure, reducing the risk of stress deformation caused by local stress concentration in the transverse load-bearing component 12. Correspondingly, by also including at least two columns 111 arranged along the travel direction Y of the main vehicle 1 in the vertical load-bearing component 11, reliable support for the transverse load-bearing component 12 can be achieved while reducing the weight of the vertical load-bearing component 11.

[0060] It is understood that the transverse load-bearing component 12 includes at least two crossbeams 121, or it may include two, three, or even four crossbeams 121, in order to further improve the structural stability of the transverse load-bearing component 12 by increasing the number of crossbeams 121. When the number of crossbeams 121 is greater than two, at least two connecting beams 122 may be provided between any two crossbeams 121 to assemble the two adjacent crossbeams 121 together.

[0061] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the number of uprights 111 can be the same as the number of crossbeams 121. For example, when there are two crossbeams 121, there are also two uprights 111, each corresponding to one of the crossbeams 121. When there are three crossbeams 121, there are also three uprights 111, and so on. In other embodiments, the number of uprights 111 can be different from the number of crossbeams 121. For example, the number of uprights 111 can be less than the number of crossbeams 121. The uprights 111 are arranged between multiple crossbeams 121 along the traveling direction Y of the main vehicle 1, and at least two crossbeams 121 are connected to the same upright 111.

[0062] Optionally, the vertical load-bearing component 11 may also include at least one connecting beam 122, that is, the connecting beam 122 of the horizontal load-bearing component 12 is the first connecting beam, and the connecting beam 122 of the vertical load-bearing component 11 is the second connecting beam, the second connecting beam connecting at least two columns 111, so as to further improve the structural stability of the vertical load-bearing component 11.

[0063] Optionally, the crossbeam 121 is detachably connected to the column 111, and / or the connecting beam 122 is detachably connected to the crossbeam 121. By adopting a detachable connection method between the crossbeam 121, the column 111, and the connecting beam 122, each component can be prefabricated and directly assembled on-site, reducing transportation difficulties and improving the construction cycle. Furthermore, if any of the crossbeam 121, the column 111, or the connecting beam 122 is damaged, it can be disassembled and replaced individually without affecting other parts, reducing maintenance costs. As an optional implementation, high-strength bolts or embedded parts can be used to achieve the detachability between the crossbeam 121, the column 111, and the connecting beam 122.

[0064] Please see Figures 1 to 4 In some optional embodiments, a support assembly 14 is also connected between the crossbeam 121 and the column 111. One end of the support assembly 14 is connected to the end of the crossbeam 121 away from the hoisting mechanism 2, and the other end of the support assembly 14 is connected to the column 111. By setting the support assembly 14 to connect the crossbeam 121 and the column 111, the force on the cantilever structure can be transferred to the column 111 through the support assembly 14, reducing the stress deformation of the cantilever structure and improving the accuracy of the installation equipment 100 during operation.

[0065] Optionally, the number of support components 14 is the same as the number of crossbeams 121, that is, each crossbeam 121 and column 111 is provided with a corresponding support component 14 to further improve the structural stability of the installation equipment 100.

[0066] Optionally, the other end of the support component 14 can be connected to the bottom of the column 111, thereby transmitting the force of the cantilever structure to the bottom of the column 111, that is, to the support position of the vertical bearing component 11, reducing the impact on the vertical bearing component 11 and improving the reliability of the vertical bearing component 11.

[0067] In some embodiments, to facilitate the connection of the support assembly 14 to the end of the crossbeam 121 away from the lifting structure, the crossbeam 121 may protrude a certain distance away from the lifting mechanism 2 relative to the column 111 along the first direction X. The support assembly 14 may be configured as a diagonal brace, with one end connected to the end of the crossbeam 121 away from the lifting mechanism 2 and the other end connected to the bottom of the column 111. By setting the diagonal brace, a triangular stabilizing mechanism can be formed, effectively constraining the cantilever structure and reducing the risk of instability of the installation equipment 100 under load.

[0068] Please see Figures 1 to 4 In some alternative embodiments, the beam 121 and / or column 111 are truss structures.

[0069] By using a truss structure, the weight of the beams 121 and / or columns 111 can be reduced. At the same time, the truss can effectively distribute the load and avoid local stress concentration. Furthermore, the triangular structure has geometric stability, which can increase the overall stiffness of the beams 121 and / or columns 111 to better meet the installation requirements of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300.

[0070] It is understandable that the crossbeam 121 and / or the column 111 are truss structures. This can be either only the crossbeam 121, only the column 111, or both the crossbeam 121 and the column 111 are truss structures. By setting both the crossbeam 121 and the column 111 as truss structures, the installation requirements of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 can be met while effectively reducing the weight of the installation equipment 100.

[0071] Optionally, the truss structure of the crossbeam 121 and / or the column 111 is a hollow structure, which can further reduce the weight of the main vehicle 1, thereby reducing the weight of the installation equipment 100. As an optional embodiment, the crossbeam 121 can be configured as a hollow truss structure formed by welding hollow tubes, and the column 111 can also be configured as a hollow truss structure formed by welding hollow tubes. The crossbeam 121 can be connected to the top of the column 111 by bolts to realize the installation of the main vehicle 1.

[0072] In some alternative embodiments, the hoisting mechanism 2 includes a trolley 21 and a lifting device 22. The trolley 21 includes two trolley modules 211, which are movably mounted on two crossbeams 121. Both trolley modules 211 are connected to the lifting device 22, and the two trolley modules 211 are arranged at intervals along the length of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300.

[0073] In conjunction with the crossbeam 121, the trolley 21 can be configured as a split-type trolley 21. For example, when there are two crossbeams 121, the trolley 21 can also include two trolley modules 211, one trolley module 211 connected to one crossbeam 121 and the other trolley module 211 connected to the other crossbeam 121. Each trolley module 211 can reciprocate along the crossbeam 121 in the first direction X. The two trolley modules 211 are connected together to the lifting device 22 used for hoisting the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300. By configuring the trolley 21 as a split-type trolley 21, the weight of the hoisting mechanism 2 can be reduced, thereby reducing the weight of the installation equipment 100.

[0074] Since the two trolley modules 211 are respectively installed on the two crossbeams 121, that is, the two trolley modules 211 are spaced apart along the travel direction Y of the main vehicle 1, when the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 is lifted by the lifting device 22, the length direction of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 can be made parallel to the travel direction Y of the main vehicle 1. By setting the two trolley modules 211 along the length direction of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300, the state of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 can be more evenly distributed between the two trolley modules 211, effectively suppressing the bending deformation of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 due to its own weight, making it easier for the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 to maintain a stable state when lifted by the lifting device 22, thus improving the lifting stability.

[0075] The frame of the trolley module 211 can be connected to the lifting device 22, which is a structure for lifting the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300. When used for transporting the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300, the lifting device 22 may include a frame assembly and an adsorption assembly. The adsorption assembly includes multiple suction cups spaced apart on the frame assembly to simultaneously adsorb multiple photovoltaic modules 310 of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300. The lifting device 22 can grab and lift the photovoltaic module 310 array semi-finished product formed by assembling multiple photovoltaic modules 310 at one time for assembly operations. The lifting device 22 can employ various methods such as vacuum adsorption and electromagnetic adsorption. For example, the lifting device 22 may include a vacuum pump, at least one gas collection pipe, and multiple connecting pipes. The vacuum pump is used to evacuate the suction cup to provide negative pressure. The connecting pipes connect to the suction cup, and the gas collection pipes connect the vacuum pump and the connecting pipes and can correspond to multiple connecting pipes. This allows the suction cup to form a suction force under the action of the vacuum pump to firmly hold the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the photovoltaic module 310 and enabling reliable handling of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 within the working space.

[0076] Please see Figures 1 to 4In some optional embodiments, the lateral support component 12 includes a first end S1 and a second end S2 disposed along a first direction X. The first end S1 is supported by the vertical support component 11, and the second end S2 extends outward relative to one side of the vertical support component 11 to form a first cantilever structure. The hoisting mechanism 2 is mounted on the first cantilever structure and has a degree of freedom of movement along the first direction X relative to the first cantilever structure. A workspace is formed below the first cantilever structure. The first direction X intersects with the travel direction Y of the main vehicle 1.

[0077] The main vehicle 1 can be configured as a single cantilever structure, meaning that the lateral load-bearing component 12 is supported only at the first end S1, while the second end S2 is suspended. By configuring the main vehicle 1 as a single cantilever structure, space occupation can be reduced, the structure can be simplified, and the operational flexibility can be increased, thereby improving construction efficiency.

[0078] It is understood that the first end S1 is supported on the vertical support component 11. This can be either the first end S1 is directly supported on the vertical support component 11, or the first end S1 is protruding relative to the vertical support component 11 along the first direction X. The first end S1 is supported on the vertical support component 11 through the support component 14. This application does not make any specific limitation in this regard.

[0079] In some alternative embodiments, the vertical support assembly 11 includes a vertical frame and an equipment platform 112, with a walking mechanism 13 mounted at the bottom of the vertical frame and the equipment platform 112 mounted on the vertical frame and located above the walking mechanism 13.

[0080] When the vertical support component 11 includes a vertical frame and an equipment platform 112, the vertical frame extends along the vertical direction Z, and the horizontal support component 12 is connected to the top of the vertical frame. The equipment platform 112 is mounted on the vertical frame, and the traveling mechanism 13 is mounted on the bottom of the vertical frame, specifically on the bottom of the equipment platform 112. The traveling mechanism 13 may include a vehicle body and traveling components 131 respectively disposed on both sides of the vehicle body along the first direction X. The vehicle body is connected to the equipment platform 112, so that the balance during movement is improved by using two sets of traveling components 131. Optionally, the traveling components 131 on both sides can be driven independently. By using two sets of traveling components 131, the speed difference between the traveling components 131 on both sides can be controlled to achieve turning, improving environmental adaptability and operational flexibility.

[0081] Optionally, the installation equipment 100 also includes a counterweight assembly 3, which can be mounted on the equipment platform 112. The counterweight assembly 3 can be positioned along the first direction X on the side of the equipment platform 112 away from the first cantilever structure. By mounting the counterweight assembly 3, the torque of the lifting mechanism 2 on the first cantilever structure can be balanced, thereby ensuring that the center of gravity of the installation equipment 100 is near the traveling assembly 131, thus reducing the risk of the installation equipment 100 overturning.

[0082] Optionally, the counterweight assembly 3 may include a counterweight block 31, electrical equipment 32, etc. That is, the counterweight assembly 3 may be provided with a counterweight block 31 alone, or the electrical equipment 32 may be reused as the counterweight assembly 3. The electrical equipment 32 may be, for example, a control device or drive device that drives the walking mechanism 13 to move. That is, while realizing its own function, the electrical equipment 32 can also act as a counterweight to balance the torque of the hoisting mechanism 2 in the first cantilever structure and reduce the risk of the installation equipment 100 overturning.

[0083] Please see Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5 This paper shows a front view of an installation device 100 provided in another embodiment of the present application. Figure 6 A schematic diagram of the structure of an installation device 100 provided in another embodiment of this application is shown.

[0084] In some optional embodiments, the vertical support assembly 11 includes a first vertical frame 1111, a second vertical frame 1112, and a connecting frame 1113 spaced apart along a first direction X. The end of the first vertical frame 1111 facing the horizontal support assembly 12 is lower than the second vertical frame 1112. The connecting frame 1113 connects the first vertical frame 1111 and the second vertical frame 1112 along the first direction X to form an equipment platform 112. The horizontal support assembly 12 is connected to the second vertical frame 1112. The first cantilever structure and the first vertical frame 1111 are located on opposite sides of the second vertical frame 1112 along the first direction X.

[0085] By configuring the vertical support component 11 as a first vertical frame 1111, a second vertical frame 1112, and a connecting frame 1113, and connecting the horizontal support component 12 to the second vertical frame 1112, and with the first cantilever structure and the first vertical frame 1111 located on both sides of the second vertical frame 1112 along the first direction X, the overturning moment generated by the first cantilever structure can be balanced by the first vertical frame 1111, thus achieving dynamic balance.

[0086] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first vertical frame 1111 and the second vertical frame 1112 each include two columns spaced apart along the travel direction Y, and the bottoms of the columns opposite each other in the travel direction Y are connected by a base; the connecting frame 1113 includes two connecting beams spaced apart along the travel direction Y, and the connecting beams extend along the first direction X for connecting the columns opposite each other in the first direction X.

[0087] Optionally, the first vertical frame 1111, the second vertical frame 1112, and the connecting frame 1113 can all be configured as truss structures to reduce the weight of the vertical load-bearing components 11. Taking one column of the first vertical frame 1111 as an example, it includes four columns, horizontal bars, and diagonal braces. The center line connecting the four columns forms a rectangle, and each column extends vertically. Horizontal bars and diagonal braces are provided between every two adjacent columns, with multiple horizontal bars and diagonal braces. The horizontal bars and diagonal braces are alternately arranged vertically to combine with the columns and form a truss structure.

[0088] Optionally, the structure of the second vertical frame 1112 and the structure of the connecting frame 113 can be the same as the structure of the first vertical frame 1111. By adopting the above structure, the load-bearing capacity of the vertical load-bearing component 11 can be improved while the weight of the vertical load-bearing component 11 can be reduced, thereby further reducing the weight of the installed equipment.

[0089] It is understandable that when the vertical bearing assembly 11 includes a first vertical frame 1111, a second vertical frame 1112, and a connecting frame 1113, the horizontal bearing assembly 12 may also include a first end S1 and a second end S2. When the first end S1 protrudes away from the hoisting mechanism 2 along the first direction X, the support assembly 14 may be connected to the first end S1 and the connecting frame 1113 along the vertical direction Z to simplify the reliability of force transmission.

[0090] In some alternative embodiments, the walking mechanism 13 includes two sets of walking components 131, which are respectively disposed at the bottom of the first vertical frame 1111 and the second vertical frame 1112.

[0091] By setting the vertical support components 11 as the first vertical frame 1111 and the second vertical frame 1112 respectively, and setting one of the two sets of walking components 131 at the bottom of the first vertical frame 1111 and the other at the bottom of the second vertical frame 1112, it is possible to reliably install the photovoltaic bracket 200 in situations where the spacing along the first direction X is small.

[0092] Understandably, since the installation site for photovoltaic devices may have multiple photovoltaic supports 200, when the spacing between adjacent photovoltaic supports 200 along the first direction X is small, compared to making the vertical support component 11 a single integrated structure, by using a separate first vertical frame 1111 and a second vertical frame 1112 for the vertical support component 11, the dimensions of both the first vertical frame 1111 and the second vertical frame 1112 along the first direction X are smaller than the dimensions of the single vertical support component 11 along the first direction X under the same load-bearing capacity. Therefore, when installing the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300, it is easier for the first vertical frame 1111 and / or the second vertical frame 1112 to pass through the gap between two adjacent photovoltaic supports 200, thereby achieving reliable installation when the spacing between the photovoltaic supports 200 along the first direction X is small.

[0093] For the installation process of the photovoltaic bracket 200, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 In some embodiments, the mounting surface of the photovoltaic support 200 can be tilted. The photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 and the photovoltaic support 200 are installed by tilting and hoisting it onto the photovoltaic support 200. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 5 and Figure 6 In other embodiments, the mounting surface of the photovoltaic bracket 200 can also be set to a horizontal plane. After the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 is hoisted onto the photovoltaic bracket 200 and the photovoltaic bracket 200 is installed, the surface of the photovoltaic bracket 200 is tilted so that the surface of the photovoltaic module 310 can fully receive sunlight. By setting the mounting surface of the photovoltaic bracket 200 to a horizontal plane, it is easier to install the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 onto the photovoltaic bracket 200 and reduces the risk of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 tilting and slipping after being hoisted onto the photovoltaic bracket 200. However, the above installation method will result in a small gap between two adjacent photovoltaic brackets 200 along the first direction X. The installation device 100 in this embodiment can be adapted to the small-pitch installation conditions where the mounting surface of the photovoltaic bracket 200 is set to a horizontal plane, thereby improving the installation reliability.

[0094] Please see Figures 5 to 6 In some optional embodiments, the installation device 100 further includes a counterweight component 3, which is disposed on the vertical support component 11, specifically on the connecting frame 1113.

[0095] By setting a counterweight assembly 3 on the connecting frame 1113, the moment of the hoisting mechanism 2 in the first cantilever structure can be balanced, thereby ensuring that the center of gravity of the installation equipment 100 is near the traveling assembly 131, thus reducing the risk of the installation equipment 100 overturning. Optionally, when the connecting frame 1113 is configured as a truss structure, the counterweight assembly 3 can be secured to the connecting frame 1113 via a slot.

[0096] Optionally, the counterweight component 3 can be configured as at least one of the counterweight block 31 and the electrical equipment 32. That is, the counterweight component 3 can be configured with a counterweight block 31 alone, or the electrical equipment 32 can be reused as the counterweight component 3. The electrical equipment 32 can be, for example, a control device, a drive device, a distribution box, etc. that drives the walking mechanism 13 to move. In other words, the electrical equipment 32 can perform its own function while also acting as a counterweight to balance the torque of the hoisting mechanism 2 in the first cantilever structure and reduce the risk of the installed equipment 100 overturning.

[0097] In some alternative embodiments, in the first direction X, the counterweight component 3 is disposed on the side of the vertical bearing component 11 away from the lifting mechanism 2. By displacing the counterweight component 3 away from the lifting mechanism 2, the weight of the counterweight component 3 can be reduced while balancing the torque of the lifting mechanism 2 on the first cantilever structure, thereby reducing the weight of the installation equipment 100.

[0098] Please see Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 7 The following is a front view of the installation device 100 provided in some embodiments of this application. Figure 8 A schematic diagram of the structure of the installation device 100 provided in some embodiments of this application is shown.

[0099] In some optional embodiments, the first end S1 of the lateral support component 12 extends outward relative to the other side of the vertical support component 11 to form a second cantilever structure. The installation equipment 100 also includes a counterweight component 3, at least a portion of which is disposed on the second cantilever structure. That is, the first end S1 of the lateral support component 12, i.e., the end facing away from the second lifting mechanism 2, can also extend outward relative to the other side of the vertical support component 11 to form a second cantilever structure, thus forming a double cantilever structure. By setting the second cantilever structure, the torque of the lifting mechanism 2 on the first cantilever structure can be balanced, reducing the risk of the installation equipment 100 overturning.

[0100] It is understandable that when the first end S1 of the lateral load-bearing component 12 extends outward relative to the other side of the vertical load-bearing component 11 to form a second cantilever structure, the main vehicle 1 may also include a support component 14. The support component 14 can be connected to the middle position of the second cantilever structure and the vertical load-bearing component 11 to provide stability for the main vehicle 1. In addition, when the installation equipment 100 is configured as a double cantilever structure, the vertical load-bearing component 11 can be integrally set or separately configured as a first vertical frame 1111, a second vertical frame 1112, and a connecting frame 1113 (not shown in the figure). For ease of description, this application will use the example of the vertical load-bearing component 11 including the vertical frame and the equipment platform 112 for illustration.

[0101] When the lateral load-bearing component 12 is configured as a double cantilever structure, the counterweight component 3 of the installation equipment 100 can be configured on the second cantilever structure. By increasing the distance between the counterweight component 3 and the vertical load-bearing component 11 along the first direction X, the weight of the counterweight component 3 can be reduced while balancing the torque of the hoisting mechanism 2 on the first cantilever structure, thereby reducing the weight of the installation equipment 100 and improving dynamic stability.

[0102] In some alternative embodiments, the counterweight component 3 is disposed at the end of the second cantilever structure away from the vertical bearing component 11, the weight of the counterweight component 3 is adjustable, and / or the connection position of the counterweight component 3 on the second cantilever structure along the first direction X is adjustable.

[0103] By making the weight of the counterweight component 3 and / or the connection position of the counterweight component 3 along the first direction X on the second cantilever structure adjustable, the weight of the counterweight component 3 and / or the connection position of the counterweight component 3 can be adjusted according to different photovoltaic array semi-finished products 300 to be hoisted. Thus, for different photovoltaic array semi-finished products 300, the torque of the hoisting mechanism 2 on the first cantilever structure can be balanced more reliably, reducing the risk of the installation equipment 100 overturning and improving the reliability of use.

[0104] Optionally, the weight of the counterweight assembly 3 is adjustable. The counterweight assembly 3 can be detachably connected to the second cantilever structure, and its weight can be adjusted by replacing it with different specifications. And / or, the counterweight assembly 3 may include multiple counterweights, so the weight of the counterweight assembly 3 can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the weight of the counterweights.

[0105] Optionally, the connection position of the counterweight assembly 3 on the second cantilever structure along the first direction X is adjustable. For example, the counterweight assembly 3 can be slidably connected to the second cantilever structure along the first direction X. In some embodiments, the mounting device 100 further includes a fourth drive mechanism for driving the counterweight assembly 3 to move along the second cantilever structure. The fourth drive mechanism can be configured as a ball screw mechanism, a rack and pinion mechanism, a worm gear mechanism, etc.

[0106] It is understandable that by making the connection position of the counterweight component 3 on the second cantilever structure adjustable along the first direction X, the counterweight component 3 can be synchronously controlled to move towards or away from each other along the first direction X when the hoisting mechanism 2 moves along the first direction X. This makes it easier to ensure that the center of gravity of the installation equipment 100 is set between the two sets of traveling components 131 along the first direction X throughout the entire installation process, so as to more reliably balance the torque and reduce the risk of the installation equipment 100 overturning.

[0107] Optionally, the counterweight assembly 3 includes at least one of a counterweight block 31, an electrical device 32, and a drive device 33.

[0108] When the counterweight assembly 3 includes at least one of the following: counterweight block 31, electrical equipment 32, and drive equipment 33, that is, the counterweight assembly 3 can be provided with counterweight block 31 alone, or the electrical equipment 32 and / or drive equipment 33 can be reused as the counterweight assembly 3. The drive equipment 33 can be, for example, the drive equipment 33 that drives the hoisting mechanism 2, and the electrical equipment 32 can be, for example, the control device or drive device that drives the walking mechanism 13 to move. That is, the electrical equipment 32 and / or drive equipment 33 can perform their own functions while acting as a counterweight to balance the torque of the hoisting mechanism 2 in the first cantilever structure and reduce the risk of the installation equipment 100 overturning.

[0109] It is understandable that the counterweight 31, electrical equipment 32, and drive equipment 33 can be set in different positions. In the double cantilever structure, at least part of the counterweight assembly 3 is set on the second cantilever structure. For example, the counterweight 31 and drive equipment 33 can be set on the second cantilever structure of the transverse bearing assembly 12, and the electrical equipment 32 can be set on the vertical bearing assembly 11.

[0110] Please see Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some alternative embodiments, the lifting mechanism 2 includes a trolley 21 and a spreader 22 connected to the trolley 21. The trolley 21 is movably mounted on the transverse load-bearing assembly 12. The lifting mechanism 2 also includes a drive device 33 for the operation of the trolley 21 and the spreader 22. The drive device 33 is located on the main vehicle 1 at least partially independent of the trolley 21.

[0111] Since the hoisting mechanism 2 is located on the first cantilever structure, by making the drive device 33 at least partially independent of the trolley 21, the drive device 33 can be reused as a counterweight component 3 while driving the trolley 21 and the lifting device 22 to balance the torque of the hoisting mechanism 2, thereby reducing costs and the weight of the installation equipment 100.

[0112] In some alternative embodiments, the drive device 33 includes a first drive mechanism for driving the trolley 21 to move relative to the lateral support assembly 12 in a first direction X, and a second drive mechanism for driving the lifting device 22 to rise and fall relative to the trolley 21. The first drive mechanism and / or the second drive mechanism are disposed on the main vehicle 1 independently of the trolley 21.

[0113] Specifically, the drive device 33 may include a first drive mechanism and a second drive mechanism. The first drive mechanism is used to drive the trolley 21 to move relative to the transverse bearing component 12 along the first direction X. The second drive mechanism is used to connect with the lifting device 22 and drive the lifting device 22 to rise and fall relative to the trolley 21 along the vertical direction Z, so that the lifting device 22 can descend along the vertical direction Z. For example, it can extend into the transfer carrier 400 containing the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 to obtain the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300. After obtaining it, it can lift the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 to take it out. Then, the trolley module 211 moves along the first direction X to above the photovoltaic bracket 200, and controls the lifting device 22 to descend along the vertical direction Z to place the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 on the photovoltaic bracket 200 for installation.

[0114] By making the first drive mechanism and / or the second drive mechanism independent of the trolley 21, the first drive mechanism and / or the second drive mechanism can be reused as a counterweight component 3 to balance the torque of the lifting mechanism 2, thereby reducing costs and the weight of the installation equipment 100.

[0115] As an optional implementation, the trolley 21 may include a frame and rollers. The first drive mechanism may include a motor roller and a traction cable. The traction cable is wound around the motor roller and connected to the frame. The motor roller can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise to wind or release the traction cable, thereby driving each trolley module 211 to move relative to the crossbeam 121 along the first direction X. The crossbeam 121 may be provided with a track adapted to the rollers to improve the reliability of the movement of the trolley module 211 relative to the crossbeam 121.

[0116] As an optional implementation, the second drive mechanism can be configured as a winch, which may include a motor drum and a wire rope. The wire rope is wound on the motor drum and can be wound around the pulley of the trolley 21, extended vertically in the Z direction and connected to the lifting device 22. The lifting device 22 can be raised or lowered by rotating the motor drum clockwise or counterclockwise.

[0117] Optionally, there can be multiple second drive mechanisms, and the wire ropes of these mechanisms can be connected to different positions on the lifting device 22. The connection positions between the multiple wire ropes and the lifting device 22 can be relatively evenly distributed. Each second drive mechanism can be driven independently to adjust the winding length of each wire rope, thereby adjusting the spatial orientation and angle of the lifting device 22, thus facilitating the flexible installation angle of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300. For example, adjusting the vertical length of the wire rope connected to one side of the lifting device 22 to be less than the vertical length of the wire rope connected to the other side of the lifting device 22 can cause the lifting device 22 to be in an inclined state.

[0118] In some alternative embodiments, the drive device 33 is disposed at the end of the lateral support assembly 12 away from the trolley 21, or the drive device 33 is disposed on the vertical support assembly 11.

[0119] Taking the drive device 33, which includes a first drive mechanism and a second drive mechanism, as an example, the first drive mechanism and the second drive mechanism can both be set on the second cantilever structure, or both can be set on the vertical bearing component 11, or they can be partially set on the second cantilever structure and partially set on the vertical bearing component 11. Their specific setting positions can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0120] In some alternative embodiments, the trolley 21 includes a trolley frame and a micro-motion mechanism movably mounted on the trolley frame, and the lifting device 22 is connected to the micro-motion mechanism; the driving device 33 also includes a third driving mechanism that drives the micro-motion mechanism to move relative to the trolley frame. The third driving mechanism can be directly mounted on the micro-motion mechanism or the trolley frame, or it can be mounted independently of the trolley 21 on the main vehicle 1, and can be selected according to different driving methods.

[0121] Among them, the first drive mechanism drives the trolley 21 to slide a long distance relative to the first cantilever structure, and the third drive mechanism can drive the micro-motion mechanism to drive the lifting device 22 to move slightly relative to the trolley frame, thereby finely adjusting the position of the lifting device 22 in the working space so as to accurately install the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300.

[0122] Optionally, the micro-motion mechanism can be used to move the spreader 22 relative to the trolley frame along the first direction X to adjust the position of the spreader 22 in the first direction X. The micro-motion mechanism can also be used to move the spreader 22 relative to the trolley frame along the travel direction Y to adjust the position of the spreader 22 in the travel direction Y. Alternatively, the micro-motion mechanism can also be used to move the spreader 22 relative to the trolley frame along both the first direction X and the travel direction Y to adjust the position of the spreader 22 in both directions.

[0123] As an optional implementation, the micro-motion mechanism can be divided into a first micro-motion mechanism and a second micro-motion mechanism according to its adjustment method. The first micro-motion mechanism is set on the trolley frame, the second micro-motion mechanism is set on the first micro-motion mechanism, and the lifting device is connected to the second micro-motion mechanism. One of the first micro-motion mechanism and the second micro-motion mechanism is used to drive the lifting device 22 to move relative to the trolley frame in the first direction X, and the other is used to drive the lifting device 22 to move relative to the trolley frame in the travel direction Y, thereby realizing the fine adjustment of the lifting device 22 in the first direction X and the travel direction Y.

[0124] Optionally, the first micro-motion mechanism and the trolley frame, and the second micro-motion mechanism and the first micro-motion mechanism are driven by a gear and rack mechanism. The third drive mechanism can be a drive motor that drives the gear to rotate. For example, the trolley frame is equipped with a rack, and the first micro-motion mechanism is equipped with a gear and a drive motor for driving the gear to rotate. The gear meshes with the rack, and the rotation of the gear drives the first micro-motion mechanism to move relative to the trolley frame. Of course, the drive mechanism between the first micro-motion mechanism and the trolley frame, and between the second micro-motion mechanism and the first micro-motion mechanism, is not limited to the above. A sprocket and chain drive mechanism, a rope traction drive mechanism, etc., can also be used. There are no restrictions here.

[0125] In some alternative embodiments, the walking mechanism 13 includes a tracked walking mechanism.

[0126] By including a tracked walking mechanism 13, the larger contact area with the ground and better stability of the tracked walking mechanism improves the stability and reliability of the main vehicle 1's movement. This allows the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 installation equipment 100 to lift large, heavy-duty photovoltaic array semi-finished products 300, and also makes the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 installation equipment 100 suitable for various ground environments such as deserts and uneven terrain, improving environmental adaptability. Optionally, the tracked chassis walking mechanism 13 can be electrically driven or hydraulically driven.

[0127] It is understood that, as other examples, the traveling mechanism 13 may also include any other suitable type of traveling mechanism 13 of a different type from the tracked traveling mechanism 13. For example, the traveling mechanism 13 may also include a wheeled traveling mechanism 13, the wheeled traveling unit including at least travel wheels.

[0128] Please see Figures 1 to 8In the embodiment of this application, when installing the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300, the installation equipment 100 can be moved to the pre-installed photovoltaic bracket 200 position by the walking mechanism 13. The trolley 21 can move along the first direction X relative to the first cantilever structure under the action of the first drive mechanism to the transfer carrier 400 containing the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300. The lifting device 22 can descend along the first direction X into the transfer carrier 400 containing the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 under the action of the second drive mechanism and pick up the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300. After the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 is picked up, the lifting device 22 can rise to a certain height along the first direction X under the action of the second drive mechanism, and then move along the first direction X to the position of the photovoltaic bracket 200. Then, the lifting device 22 can be micro-moved by the micro-motion mechanism to achieve precise positioning of the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 relative to the photovoltaic bracket 200. After the micro-motion positioning is completed, the photovoltaic array semi-finished product 300 and the photovoltaic bracket 200 can be installed. This cycle continues until all the photovoltaic array semi-finished products 300 are installed.

[0129] Although this application has been described with reference to preferred embodiments, various modifications can be made thereto and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of this application. In particular, the technical features mentioned in the various embodiments can be combined in any manner, provided there is no structural conflict. This application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
