[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0027] A photovoltaic panel mounting support device includes a bracket 1, with symmetrical vertical plates 2 fixedly mounted on both sides of the bracket 1. A horizontal bar 3 is rotatably arranged between the two sets of vertical plates 2. A mounting plate 4 is fixedly mounted on the horizontal bar 3. A horizontal plate 5 is fixedly mounted on the bracket 1. A motor 6 is fixedly mounted on one end of the horizontal plate 5. A slide rail 7 is provided on the horizontal plate 5. A lead screw 8 is rotatably arranged in the slide rail 7. The output shaft end of the motor 6 is fixedly installed with the rotating shaft end of the lead screw 8. A movable block 9 is slidably arranged on the slide rail 7. The movable block 9 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 8. A movable rod 10 is rotatably arranged on the movable block 9. The top end of the movable rod 10 is rotatably arranged on the bottom edge of the mounting plate 4. A solar tracking sensor is arranged on the mounting plate 4.

[0028] In use, bracket 1 is used to support the entire device. The solar photovoltaic panel is fixedly installed on the mounting plate 4. After installation, it absorbs solar energy when the sun rises. The solar tracking sensor is used to track the position of the sun in the sky.

[0029] When the solar tracking sensor detects a change in the sun's position, it starts motor 6. Once motor 6 starts working, its output shaft drives lead screw 8 to rotate within slide rail 7 of horizontal plate 5. Since movable block 9 is threadedly connected to lead screw 8, the rotation of lead screw 8 is converted into linear movement of movable block 9 on slide rail 7. The movement of movable block 9 further drives movable rod 10 to deflect. Because the top of movable rod 10 is rotated and set at the bottom edge of mounting plate 4, the deflection of movable rod 10 will cause mounting plate 4 (and the photovoltaic panels on it) to deflect. The angle and direction of deflection are determined by the real-time feedback data from the solar tracking sensor, ensuring that the photovoltaic panels always face the sun, thereby maximizing the absorption effect of solar energy.

[0030] This photovoltaic panel mounting support device can deflect the photovoltaic panel according to the sun's position, thereby improving the absorption of solar energy. The device has a simple overall structure, is easy to operate, and is highly practical.

[0031] Mounting boxes 11 are fixedly installed on the outer walls of vertical plates 2. Each mounting box 11 has a retaining ring 12 rotatably installed inside. The rotating shaft end of the retaining ring 12 is fixedly installed with the rotating shaft end of the horizontal bar 3. Electric push rods 13 are fixedly installed on the sides of mounting boxes 11. Arc-shaped retaining plates 14 are provided inside mounting boxes 11. The output shaft end of the electric push rod 13 is fixedly installed with the side of the arc-shaped retaining plate 14. The size of the arc-shaped retaining plate 14 is adapted to the size of the retaining ring 12.

[0032] After the photovoltaic panel angle is adjusted, the electric push rod 13 is activated. The output shaft of the electric push rod 13 pushes the arc-shaped clamping plate 14 to move towards the clamping ring 12 inside the mounting box 11. Since the size of the arc-shaped clamping plate 14 is compatible with the clamping ring 12, when the arc-shaped clamping plate 14 contacts and fits tightly with the clamping ring 12, the friction generated between them can effectively prevent the crossbar 3 from rotating unexpectedly under the action of wind or other external forces. This not only enhances the stability of the system, but also ensures the accurate solar orientation of the photovoltaic panel during long-term operation.

[0033] Evenly distributed reinforcing rods 15 are fixedly installed between the bracket 1 and the horizontal plate 5;

[0034] Setting up the reinforcing rod 15 can improve the overall stability of the bracket 1.

[0035] Slide 7 runs from top to bottom through the horizontal plate 5;

[0036] The slide 7 runs through the horizontal plate 5 from top to bottom, which can prevent impurities and rainwater from accumulating in the slide 7 and affecting the rotation of the lead screw 8 and the sliding of the movable block 9.

[0037] A controller is installed on the horizontal plate 5, and the controller is electrically connected to the motor 6, the solar tracking sensor, and the electric push rod 13 respectively;

[0038] Setting up a controller enables automatic control of various components of the device.

[0039] Working principle:

[0040] In use, bracket 1 is used to support the entire device. The solar photovoltaic panel is fixedly installed on the mounting plate 4. After installation, it absorbs solar energy when the sun rises. The solar tracking sensor is used to track the position of the sun in the sky.

[0041] When the solar tracking sensor detects a change in the sun's position, it starts motor 6. Once motor 6 starts working, its output shaft drives lead screw 8 to rotate within slide rail 7 of horizontal plate 5. Since movable block 9 is threadedly connected to lead screw 8, the rotation of lead screw 8 is converted into linear movement of movable block 9 on slide rail 7. The movement of movable block 9 further drives movable rod 10 to deflect. Because the top of movable rod 10 is rotated and set at the bottom edge of mounting plate 4, the deflection of movable rod 10 will cause mounting plate 4 (and the photovoltaic panels on it) to deflect. The angle and direction of deflection are determined by the real-time feedback data from the solar tracking sensor, ensuring that the photovoltaic panels always face the sun, thereby maximizing the absorption effect of solar energy.

[0042] After the photovoltaic panel angle is adjusted, the electric push rod 13 is activated. The output shaft of the electric push rod 13 pushes the arc-shaped clamping plate 14 to move towards the clamping ring 12 inside the mounting box 11. Since the size of the arc-shaped clamping plate 14 is compatible with the clamping ring 12, when the arc-shaped clamping plate 14 contacts and fits tightly with the clamping ring 12, the friction generated between them can effectively prevent the crossbar 3 from rotating unexpectedly under the action of wind or other external forces. This not only enhances the stability of the system, but also ensures the accurate solar orientation of the photovoltaic panel during long-term operation.

[0043] This photovoltaic panel mounting support device can deflect the photovoltaic panel according to the sun's position, thereby improving the absorption of solar energy. The device has a simple overall structure, is easy to operate, and is highly practical.

[0044] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
