[0025] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0026] To better understand the above technical solutions, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of the present invention and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.
[0027] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0028] The following is for reference. Figures 1-4 The implementation of the integrated fixing structure for photovoltaic module clamping blocks proposed in the embodiments of this utility model is described in detail.
[0029] The photovoltaic module clamping block integrated fixing structure according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a connecting seat 1 and a clamping block 2.
[0030] The connector 1 is integrally formed and includes two mounting slots 11 for mounting the photovoltaic module frame 3. Each mounting slot 11 has open ends. The two mounting slots 11 are connected at their top and bottom to form a first hollow space 12 between them. The bottom wall of the first hollow space 12 is provided with a first connecting hole 13 for connecting the pressure block. The bottom walls of both mounting slots 11 are provided with a second connecting hole 14 for connecting the photovoltaic module frame 3. The pressure block 2 is provided with a third connecting hole 22 for connecting with the first connecting hole 13. A clamping space for clamping the steel cable 5 is formed between the connector 1 and the pressure block 2.
[0031] In other words, the connector 1 has two mounting slots 11, with both ends of each mounting slot 11 open, allowing the photovoltaic module frame 3 to be directly inserted into the mounting slot 11 from the slot opening. The top wall, side wall, and bottom wall of the mounting slot 11 limit the photovoltaic module frame 3. Together with the second connecting hole 14 and the fastener 4, the photovoltaic module frame 3 is fastened in the mounting slot 11. The first hollow part 12 is formed by the side walls of the two mounting slots 11, the top connection of the two mounting slots 11, and the bottom connection. The setting of the first hollow part 12 can provide space for the fastener 4 to be inserted into the first connecting hole 13, and at the same time, it can reduce the weight of the overall connector 1. By using the fastener 4 in conjunction with the first connecting hole 13 and the third connecting hole 22 to connect the pressure block 2 and the connector 1 and clamp the steel cable 5, the photovoltaic module can be fixed on the steel cable 5. Compared with the existing installation structure, the connector 1 with the integrated design reduces the number of assembly parts, simplifies the installation steps, and helps to improve installation efficiency. Among them, the two mounting slots 11 are symmetrically arranged with their openings facing away from each other. The connecting seat 1 can be an integrally formed aluminum profile. The cross-section of the mounting slot 11 can be C-shaped. The cross-section of the first hollow part 12 can be rectangular. The fastener 4 can be a bolt and nut mating structure.
[0032] Therefore, by integrating the existing separate upper and lower pressure blocks into the connector 1 through the one-piece molding design, the number of installation parts is reduced, the installation steps are simplified, and the assembly efficiency is improved.
[0033] Optionally, the bottom wall of the first cutout 12 is lower than the bottom walls of the two mounting grooves 11, and a reinforcing rib 15 is provided between the bottom wall of the first cutout 12 and the bottom walls of the two mounting grooves 11. Understandably, by making the bottom wall of the first cutout 12 lower than the bottom walls of the two mounting grooves 11, the reinforcing rib 15 has an inclined angle, which helps to improve the support strength of the bottom walls of the first cutout 12 and the two mounting grooves 11, thereby improving the overall strength of the connecting seat 1 and ensuring the reliability of the installation of the photovoltaic module and the steel cable 5. The inclination angle between the reinforcing rib 15 and the bottom walls of the two mounting grooves 11 can be 45° to 60°.
[0034] Furthermore, a second hollow section 16 is constructed between the reinforcing rib 15, the bottom wall of the two mounting grooves 11, and the two side walls of the first hollow section 12. Understandably, by providing the second hollow section 16, the weight of the overall connecting seat 1 can be reduced while ensuring the strength of the connecting seat 1. The second hollow section 16 can be in the shape of a right-angled trapezoid.
[0035] Optionally, the two side walls of the first cutout 12 are provided with two limiting sections 17 to restrict the head of the fastener 4, preventing the fastener 4 from rotating. Understandably, when the connecting seat 1 and the pressure block are connected, the fastener 4 is inserted into the first connecting hole 13 through the first cutout 12. The head of the fastener 4 is restricted from rotating by the limiting sections 17 on the two inner side walls of the first cutout 12. The operator does not need to fix the head of the fastener 4; only the tail of the fastener 4 needs to be tightened, facilitating one-handed operation and improving assembly efficiency. The fastener 4 can be an external hexagonal bolt.
[0036] Furthermore, both sides of the first hollow section 12 are provided with inclined sections 18, which are arranged in an inverted V-shape, with the limiting section 17 located below the inclined sections 18. Understandably, the inverted V-shape arrangement of the inclined sections 18 on the two inner side walls of the first hollow section 12 creates a structure that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom. The larger portion facilitates the insertion of the fastener 4, while the smaller portion limits the head of the fastener 4. Moreover, the inclined sections 18 provide lateral support to the two mounting grooves 11 on both sides of the first hollow section 12, thus improving the support strength of the connecting seat 1.
[0037] Optionally, the bottom walls of the two mounting slots 11 are wider than their top walls. Understandably, the narrower top walls facilitate shading of the photovoltaic module frame 3 while avoiding obstruction of the photovoltaic module's sunlight-receiving area. The wider bottom walls facilitate the provision of a second connecting hole 14, enabling support and connection of the photovoltaic module frame 3. The top walls of the two mounting slots 11 may be on the same horizontal plane as the top connection point; the bottom walls of the two mounting slots 11 are on the same horizontal plane, separated by a first cutout 12.
[0038] Optionally, the pressure block is bent away from the connecting seat 1, and third connecting holes 22 are provided on both sides of the bend 21 of the pressure block. It can be understood that by bending the pressure block, it is easy to match the outer contour of the steel cable 5, thereby ensuring the reliability of the connection. At the same time, it can avoid setting the bottom of the connecting seat 1 to match the contour of the steel cable 5, which helps to reduce the manufacturing cost of the connecting seat 1. The third connecting holes 22 on both sides of the bend 21 make it easy for the pressure block to be clamped onto the steel cable 5 with uniform force by the fastener 4.
