Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of charging equipment, specifically to an integrated photovoltaic carport. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, there are a large number of electric bicycles on the Chinese market. These electric bicycles all need to be charged in charging sheds, and charging these electric bicycles requires a lot of electricity. Photovoltaic power generation, as a safe, environmentally friendly and clean power generation mode, is very suitable for powering electric bicycle charging. Using photovoltaic power generation to power electric bicycle charging can reduce the dependence of charging sheds on power sources and reduce electricity costs.

[0003] Currently, carports with photovoltaic power generation capabilities typically only have photovoltaic panels installed flat on the roof. This method of fixing the panels results in a limited area for the panels to be installed, insufficient power generation, and the panels are usually quite fragile and easily damaged in harsh environments. Damaged panels need to be replaced promptly, otherwise it may cause short circuits, leading to malfunctions in the charging carport or even fires. Furthermore, the flat installation of photovoltaic panels on the roof is complicated to dismantle, requiring workers to climb onto the roof for construction, which also carries the risk of falling. Daily maintenance and repair are also very inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides an integrated photovoltaic carport.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0006] An integrated photovoltaic carport includes a canopy module and a photovoltaic module. The canopy module includes a photovoltaic frame and two supporting side frames. Each supporting side frame includes a vertical frame and a horizontal beam. The lower end of the vertical frame is perpendicular to the ground, and the upper end is fixedly connected to the horizontal beam. The photovoltaic frame includes a support frame and a panel frame. The two ends of the support frame are respectively perpendicularly fixedly connected to the inner surfaces of the horizontal beams of the two supporting side frames. The panel frame is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support frame. The photovoltaic module includes several photovoltaic strips. The upper surface of the panel frame is provided with several parallel photovoltaic grooves. The cross-sectional shape of the trough includes a V-shape. The bottom surface of the photovoltaic trough is provided with symmetrically arranged mounting slots. The mounting slots are arranged along the length of the photovoltaic trough. The cross-sectional shape of the mounting slots matches the shape of the photovoltaic strip. The mounting slots can accommodate the insertion of the photovoltaic strip. The frame can install more photovoltaic strips per unit area, thereby increasing the power generation of the photovoltaic module. Moreover, compared with the method of fixing the photovoltaic panels directly to the roof of the carport, maintenance personnel no longer need to climb onto the roof to work, making the maintenance and replacement of the photovoltaic strip more convenient, safe, and quick.

[0007] To protect the photovoltaic panels in the mounting groove from being damaged by debris, a protective plate is provided at the upper opening of the mounting groove. The protective plate is made of transparent acrylic sheet.

[0008] To prevent the photovoltaic panel from sliding out of the mounting groove, a sealing cap is provided at both ends of the mounting groove. The sealing cap is connected to the surface of the opening of the mounting groove by bolts. The sealing cap can fix the photovoltaic panel.

[0009] In order to enable the integrated photovoltaic carport to integrate complete photovoltaic power generation functions, the photovoltaic module also includes a controller, a battery and a charging socket. The controller is connected to the battery, photovoltaic panels and charging socket through wires.

[0010] To integrate the controller and battery, the shelving module also includes a storage box, which is located below the support frame. The two ends of the storage box are fixedly connected to the inner sides of the two support side frames, and the controller and battery are housed in the storage box.

[0011] To prevent the weight of the controller, battery, and photovoltaic panels in the storage box from collapsing the frame module, a first reinforcing rib is fixedly connected between the lower surface of the photovoltaic frame and the surface of the vertical frame, and a second reinforcing rib is fixedly connected between the lower surface of the crossbeam and the surface of the vertical frame.

[0012] To facilitate users charging their electric bicycles using the integrated photovoltaic vehicle shed, the shed module also includes a charging crossbeam. The two ends of the charging crossbeam are respectively vertically and fixedly connected to the inner surfaces of the vertical supports of the two side frames. The charging socket is vertically and fixedly connected to the surface of the charging crossbeam. The distance between the charging crossbeam and the ground is 1-1.3m.

[0013] To ensure the arrangement area of ​​the photovoltaic strips, the width of the photovoltaic strips is 20-50cm and the length is 250-300cm.

[0014] To ensure the contact area between the photovoltaic panels and sunlight and to prevent the photovoltaic panels from tilting excessively and affecting the reception of sunlight, the angle between the bottom surfaces of the photovoltaic trough is angle α, and the angle α is 80-110°.

[0015] To ensure the stability of the integrated photovoltaic carport fixed on the ground, the supporting frame also includes a counterweight leg. The upper surface of the counterweight leg is vertically fixed to the lower end of the vertical frame, and the lower surface is bolted to a counterweight base, which is made of concrete.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] This utility model discloses an integrated photovoltaic carport. The upper surface of the frame for installing photovoltaic panels in the integrated photovoltaic carport is provided with several mounting grooves at a certain angle. The photovoltaic panels are all installed in the mounting grooves, so that the photovoltaic panels can be arranged in a wave shape. Compared with the traditional installation method of laying photovoltaic panels flat on the roof, it can effectively increase the capacity of photovoltaic panels, thereby improving the power generation of the photovoltaic module. Moreover, because the photovoltaic panels are installed in the corresponding mounting grooves, compared with the traditional installation method of directly fixing photovoltaic panels to the roof with screws, the installation and removal of photovoltaic panels are more convenient. Maintenance personnel do not need to climb to the roof to carry out construction, simplifying maintenance work and improving the safety of maintenance work. Attached Figure Description

[0026] See Figures 1-5An integrated photovoltaic carport includes a canopy module 1 and a photovoltaic module 2. The canopy module 1 includes a photovoltaic frame 11 and two supporting side frames 12. The supporting side frames 12 include vertical frames 121 and horizontal beams 122. The lower end of the vertical frame 121 is perpendicular to the ground, and the upper end is fixedly connected to the horizontal beams 122. The photovoltaic frame 11 includes a support frame 111 and a panel frame 112. The two ends of the support frame 111 are respectively perpendicularly fixedly connected to the inner surfaces of the horizontal beams 122 of the two supporting side frames 12. The panel frame 112 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the support frame 111. The photovoltaic module 2 includes several photovoltaic strips 21. The upper surface of the panel frame 112 is provided with several parallel photovoltaic channels 113. The cross-sectional shape of the photovoltaic channels 113 includes the letter V. The bottom surface of the photovoltaic channels 113 is provided with symmetrically arranged mounting brackets. The mounting groove 114 is arranged along the length of the photovoltaic groove 113. The cross-sectional shape of the mounting groove 114 matches the shape of the photovoltaic strip 21. The mounting groove 114 can accommodate the insertion of the photovoltaic strip 21. Compared with the traditional method of directly laying photovoltaic panels on the roof of the carport, the photovoltaic module 2 and the frame module 1 of the integrated photovoltaic carport have a higher degree of integration. The frame 112 can install more photovoltaic strips 21 in a unit area, thereby increasing the power generation of the photovoltaic module 2. Moreover, compared with the method of fixing the photovoltaic panels directly to the roof of the carport, when it is necessary to replace the photovoltaic strip 21, the corresponding photovoltaic strip 21 can be pulled out from the photovoltaic groove 113. Maintenance personnel no longer need to climb to the roof to work, making the maintenance and replacement of the photovoltaic strip 21 more convenient, safe and quick.

[0027] To protect the photovoltaic panel 21 in the mounting groove 114 from damage caused by falling debris, see [reference needed]. Figure 4 and Figure 4 A protective plate 115 is provided at the upper opening of the mounting groove 114. The protective plate 115 is made of transparent acrylic sheet, which protects the photovoltaic strip 21 from damage by debris and allows sunlight to pass through the protective plate 115 to irradiate the surface of the photovoltaic strip 21.

[0028] To prevent the photovoltaic panel 21 from sliding out of the mounting groove 114, see... Figure 3 Both ends of the mounting groove 114 are provided with sealing caps 116. The sealing caps 116 are connected to the surface of the opening of the mounting groove 114 by bolts. The sealing caps 116 can fix the photovoltaic strip 21. When the maintenance personnel need to replace the photovoltaic strip 21, they can remove the corresponding sealing caps 116 and take the photovoltaic strip 21 out of the mounting groove 114.

[0029] To enable the integrated photovoltaic carport to integrate complete photovoltaic power generation functions, the photovoltaic module 2 also includes a controller 22, a battery 23, and a charging socket 24. The controller 22 is connected to the battery 23, the photovoltaic panel 21, and the charging socket 24 via wires, so that the electrical energy converted by the photovoltaic panel 21 can be rectified by the controller 22 and then stored in the battery 23. When the user uses the integrated photovoltaic carport to charge the electric bicycle, the electrical energy stored in the battery 23 can be converted into 220V AC power by the controller 22 to power the charging socket 24. The user can connect the charger plug to the charging socket 24 to charge the electric bicycle.

[0030] For the integrated installation of the controller 22 and the battery 23, see [link / reference] Figure 5 The canopy module 1 also includes a storage box 18, which is located below the support frame 111. The two ends of the storage box 18 are fixedly connected to the inner sides of the two support side frames 12. The controller 22 and the battery 23 are located in the storage box 18. The storage box 18 can integrate the controller 22 and the battery 23 of the photovoltaic module 2 into the integrated photovoltaic canopy, improving the integration level. After the controller 22 and the battery 23 of the photovoltaic module 2 are integrated into the storage box 18, the controller 22 and the battery 23 can be suspended in the air, avoiding water accumulation on the ground from corroding and damaging the controller 22 and the battery 23.

[0031] To prevent the weight of the controller 22 and battery 23 in the storage box 18, as well as the weight of the photovoltaic panel 21, from collapsing the shelving module 1, see [reference needed]. Figure 5 A first reinforcing rib 14 is fixedly connected between the lower surface of the photovoltaic frame 11 and the surface of the vertical frame 121. The first reinforcing rib 14 can enhance the stability of the connection between the photovoltaic frame 11 and the vertical frame 121. A second reinforcing rib 15 is fixedly connected between the lower surface of the crossbeam 122 and the surface of the vertical frame 121. The second reinforcing rib 15 can enhance the stability of the connection between the crossbeam 122 and the vertical frame 121, thereby improving the overall structural strength of the shed module 1 and preventing it from being crushed by the weight of the controller 22 and the battery 23 in the storage box 18 and the weight of the photovoltaic strip 21.

[0032] See Figure 2 To facilitate users charging electric bicycles using the integrated photovoltaic vehicle shed, the shed module 1 also includes a charging crossbeam 13. The two ends of the charging crossbeam 13 are respectively vertically and fixedly connected to the inner surfaces of the vertical frames 121 of the two supporting side frames 12. The charging socket 24 is vertically and fixedly connected to the surface of the charging crossbeam 13. The distance between the charging crossbeam 13 and the ground is 1-1.3m, which makes it convenient for users to connect the charger plug to the charging socket 24.

[0033] Preferably, in order to ensure the arrangement area of ​​the photovoltaic strip 21, the width of the photovoltaic strip 21 is 20-50cm and the length is 250-300cm, so as to ensure the single panel area of ​​the photovoltaic strip 21, as well as the overall arrangement area of ​​the photovoltaic strip 21, and ensure the photovoltaic power generation capacity of the integrated photovoltaic carport.

[0034] See Figure 4 To ensure the contact area between the photovoltaic panel 21 and sunlight, and to prevent the photovoltaic panel 21 from tilting excessively and affecting the reception of sunlight, the angle between the bottom surfaces of the photovoltaic trough 113 is angle α, and the angle α is 80-110°. This ensures the irradiation effect of sunlight on the photovoltaic panel 21, while also ensuring that the integrated photovoltaic carport can accommodate a sufficient number of photovoltaic panels 21.

[0035] To ensure the stability of the integrated photovoltaic vehicle shed on the ground, preferably, the supporting frame 12 also includes a counterweight leg 16. The upper surface of the counterweight leg 16 is vertically fixed to the lower end of the vertical frame 121, and the lower surface is bolted to a counterweight base 17. The counterweight base 17 is made of concrete and can be buried underground, which lowers the overall center of gravity of the integrated photovoltaic vehicle shed and plays a stabilizing role, thereby stably fixing the integrated photovoltaic vehicle shed on the ground.
