Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic support technology, and in particular to a semi-circular support guide structure used in photovoltaic supports. Background Technology

[0002] Chinese invention patent (application number 201811220221.4) discloses a rope transmission structure and a solar tracker, including a drive wheel, a driven wheel, a main transmission rope, and multiple tracking units. The main transmission rope is connected end to end, with one end sleeved on the drive wheel and the other end sleeved on the driven wheel. The drive wheel can drive the driven wheel to rotate through the main transmission rope. Multiple tracking units are spaced apart along the length of the main transmission rope. Each tracking unit includes a mounting bracket, a rotating component, and a first branch rope. The rotating component is hinged to the mounting bracket, and the plane in which the rotation direction of the rotating component is located is perpendicular to the plane in which the rotation direction of the drive wheel is located. One end of the first branch rope is connected to the rotating component, and the other end is connected to the main transmission rope. The first branch rope can drive the rotating component to rotate when the drive wheel rotates.

[0003] In actual use, it was found that under the action of wind, the rotating parts will be laterally offset. In this state, the rotation axis of the rotating parts will be offset from the set rotation axis. Over time, this will damage the bearings, reduce their service life, and affect the transmission stability of the photovoltaic bracket.

[0004] Therefore, in view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, it is necessary to design a semi-circular support guide structure for use in photovoltaic brackets to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0010] A limiting mechanism is fixed on the column and is configured to provide limiting guidance for the two sides of the semicircular support.

[0011] A preferred technical solution is as follows: a horizontally arranged support shaft is fixedly provided at the top of the column; an ear plate is fixedly provided on the top side of the middle section of the crossbeam, a bearing mounting seat is provided on the ear plate, a bearing is provided in the bearing mounting seat, the inner ring of the bearing is fixedly connected to the support shaft, and the outer ring of the bearing is fixedly connected to the bearing mounting seat.

[0012] The preferred technical solution is as follows: the crossbeam is an I-beam, and the semicircular support is a C-shaped structure with a rope groove on the outwardly protruding side.

[0013] The preferred technical solution is as follows: the limiting mechanism consists of a connecting plate, a limiting block mounting plate, and limiting blocks. The connecting plate is fixed on the column and has a C-shaped notch. The semi-circular support is set through the C-shaped notch. The two limiting blocks are fixed on the connecting plate through their respective limiting block mounting plates and are located on both sides of the semi-circular support. The two limiting blocks form a limiting guide for the two sides of the semi-circular support.

[0014] The preferred technical solution is that the limiting surface of the limiting block is arranged parallel to the side surface of the semi-circular support.

[0015] The preferred technical solution is that the limiting block mounting plate is configured as an angle iron structure to cover and press the limiting block onto the connecting plate, and the limiting block mounting plate and the connecting plate are fixedly installed by bolts.

[0016] Due to the application of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] Enhancing structural stability: The limiting mechanism provides limiting guidance to the sides of the semi-circular support, which can effectively prevent the crossbeam from shifting laterally under the action of external forces such as wind, avoid the rotation axis from shifting, reduce bearing damage, extend service life, and ensure the transmission stability of the photovoltaic support.

[0018] Optimized rotational connection: The support shaft at the top of the column cooperates with the bearing in the ear plate of the crossbeam, allowing the crossbeam to rotate flexibly. At the same time, the bearing support can reduce rotational friction and improve the rotational smoothness of the photovoltaic bracket tracking system.
