[0002] A solar panel module refers to a power generation device formed by assembling multiple solar cells using specific materials and processes, creating a device with specific functions and performance. Solar panel modules are one of the core components of a photovoltaic power generation system. Because individual solar cells are fragile and susceptible to corrosion, direct exposure to the environment can lead to a decrease in photoelectric conversion efficiency or even damage. Assembling the cells into modules effectively protects them, extends their lifespan, and improves overall power generation efficiency and reliability. Solar panel module splicing refers to combining multiple solar panels using specific connection methods to achieve higher voltage and current output, thereby meeting greater power demands. To improve the efficiency of solar panel assembly, a connection device is needed; however, existing connection devices still have the following shortcomings:
[0003] When using existing connection devices, most of them lack the ability to precisely position and align the solar panel components before installation. This necessitates manual positioning when installing multiple solar panels, increasing labor intensity and reducing the practicality and efficiency of the connection devices. Utility Model Content

A spring damping rod is installed inside the receiving groove, and a limiting ball is installed at the front end of the spring damping rod. An installation docking block is disposed at the middle of the outside of the first solar panel, and limiting through holes are formed on both sides of the inside of the installation docking block.
[0006] Furthermore, the outer sides of the first solar panel and the outer sides of the second solar panel are horizontally distributed, and the outer sides of the first solar panel and the outer sides of the second solar panel are closely attached to each other.
[0007] Furthermore, the internal dimensions of the mounting groove are adapted to the external dimensions of the mounting block, and the mounting block is connected to the first solar panel through the mounting groove.

The internal dimensions of the threaded grooves 5 are adapted to the external dimensions of the mounting bolts 6. Furthermore, the mounting bolt 6 is rotatably connected to the mounting block 4 through the threaded groove 5. The mounting block 4 is installed into the first solar panel 1 and the second solar panel 2 through the mounting grooves 3 opened at the four corners inside the first solar panel 1 and the second solar panel 2, thereby completing the docking of the first solar panel 1 and the second solar panel 2. The internal dimensions of the threaded groove 5 opened inside the mounting block 4 are adapted to the external dimensions of the mounting bolt 6. After the first solar panel 1 and the second solar panel 2 are docked, the mounting bolt 6 is used to fix the first solar panel 1 and the second solar panel 2 to the mounting block 4, so that the four solar panel components are fixedly installed, thereby increasing the ease of installation of the solar panel components and improving the overall practicality and efficiency of the connection device.
[0022] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the first solar panel 1 has limiting grooves 7 on both sides inside, and limiting sliders 8 are connected inside the limiting grooves 7. A mounting docking groove 9 is provided in the middle of the first solar panel 1, and receiving grooves 10 are provided on both sides outside the mounting docking groove 9.

The internal dimensions of the mounting docking groove 9 are adapted to the external dimensions of the mounting docking block 13, and the mounting docking block 13 is connected to the first solar panel 1 via the mounting docking groove 9. The spring damping rod 11 and the limiting ball 12 are vertically distributed, and the limiting ball 12 is elastically connected to the receiving groove 10 via the spring damping rod 11.
