Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0030] According to embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a photovoltaic device is provided, including a support frame 1, a photovoltaic module 2, and an adjustment component 3. The two support frames 1 are suitable for installation on the ground, the photovoltaic module 2 is disposed between the two support frames 1, and one end of the adjustment component 3 is detachably connected to the support frame 1, and the other end is connected to the photovoltaic module 2.

[0031] Specifically, in this embodiment, the support frame 1 is not specifically limited. For example, in this embodiment, the support frame 1 includes a vertical pole and a horizontal beam. The horizontal beam is fixed to the top of the vertical pole, and the vertical pole is set vertically on the steep slope where the photovoltaic equipment is installed. The two support frames 1 are set opposite each other along the steep slope.

[0032] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown, in order to ensure the stability of the support frame 1, wind-resistant cables 4 are installed on both sides of the support frame 1. One end of the wind-resistant cable 4 is connected to the horizontal beam, and the other end is connected to the ground anchor.

[0033] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the photovoltaic module 2 is a flexible photovoltaic module 2. The flexible module is lightweight and can be easily bent and folded, and can adapt to various complex shapes and installation environments. The photovoltaic module 2 is set between two support frames 1 along the length direction. Two adjustment components 3 are respectively installed at both ends of the photovoltaic module 2, and the adjustment components 3 are detachably connected to the horizontal beam at the top of the support frame 1.

[0034] Compared to traditional rigid fixed photovoltaic (PV) equipment, the PV equipment in this embodiment has the advantages of "large span, high clearance, and long row spacing," demonstrating extremely high environmental adaptability when dealing with complex terrains such as mountains, barren slopes, gullies, and steep slopes. By setting up flexible PV modules 2, the PV equipment can easily adapt to various diverse terrain conditions, even performing well in complex scenarios where traditional supports are difficult to install, such as steep slopes, ravines, and mining subsidence areas. This design maximizes the effective use of land area, thereby significantly increasing the installed capacity of the PV power station connected to the PV equipment.

[0035] Thanks to the high clearance and large span characteristics of photovoltaic (PV) equipment, space under PV modules can be effectively freed up in various application scenarios, thus fully leveraging the combined benefits of "PV+". This enables PV equipment to be widely used in multiple fields such as solar-agricultural integration in mountainous areas, solar-agricultural integration in fisheries, coastal mudflat development, desert and wasteland remediation, and distributed energy in industry and commerce.

[0036] This utility model uses an adjustment component 3 to detachably connect both ends of the photovoltaic module 2 to the support frame 1. When maintenance is required on the photovoltaic module 2, the adjustment component 3 can be separated from the support frame 1.

By rotating the adjusting rod 33, the distance between the support 32 and the base 31 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the tension of the photovoltaic module 2. The adjusting rod 33 can be rotated out of the base 31 to remove the photovoltaic module 2 for maintenance. It has the advantages of simple structure and convenient operation.
