Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic support technology, specifically a floating photovoltaic adjustable angle support. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous development of renewable energy technologies, floating photovoltaic (PV) power generation systems have gradually become an important development direction in the PV application field due to their advantages such as not occupying land resources and adapting to aquatic environments. In existing floating PV support structures, a single support typically supports one PV panel, and the panels are usually installed at a fixed angle. While this structure is simple to install and has low cost, it has certain limitations in practical applications.
[0003] Because each photovoltaic panel is fixed by an independent bracket, and the installation angle is either not adjustable or has a limited adjustment range, it is difficult to keep adjacent photovoltaic panels on the same plane. This is especially true when the water surface is undulating or the terrain is uneven, which can easily lead to inconsistencies in the height and angle of the photovoltaic panels in the front, back, left, and right. This non-coplanar installation not only affects the aesthetics and structural stability of the overall system, but may also cause shading between photovoltaic panels, reducing the utilization rate of sunlight and thus affecting the power generation efficiency. To address this issue, a floating photovoltaic adjustable angle bracket is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a floating photovoltaic adjustable angle support to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a floating photovoltaic adjustable angle support, comprising: multiple bases, each of which is provided with two sets of telescopic components; each of the two sets of telescopic components has a U-shaped groove oppositely arranged at its end away from the base; a photovoltaic panel is arranged between the two U-shaped grooves; each telescopic component includes a hollow rod and a telescopic rod.
[0006] The telescopic rod is disposed inside the hollow rod. Several springs are connected to the end face of the telescopic rod located inside the hollow rod. A limiting strip is provided on the hollow rod to keep in contact with the springs and to limit the position of one end of the spring.
[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: limit grooves are provided on both sides of the telescopic rod, and a limit block connected to the hollow rod is slidably installed inside the limit groove.
[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a plurality of through grooves are provided on the hollow rod, the outer diameter of the limiting strip is adapted to the inner diameter of the through groove, and after the limiting strip is inserted into the through groove, friction texture is provided in the area outside the hollow rod.
[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the telescopic rod and the U-shaped channel are connected by a connecting frame.

A bolt is installed on the U-shaped frame, and the end of the bolt passes through the U-shaped frame and is threadedly connected to the base.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] This application, by setting a U-shaped trough, enables multiple photovoltaic panels to be kept on the same plane, improving the flatness and coordination of the overall installation.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Please see Figures 1-7 In this embodiment of the utility model, a floating photovoltaic adjustable angle bracket includes: multiple bases 1, each of which is provided with two sets of telescopic components. The ends of the two sets of telescopic components away from the bases 1 are provided with U-shaped grooves 5 arranged opposite to each other. A photovoltaic panel 11 is arranged between the two U-shaped grooves 5. The telescopic components include a hollow rod 2 and a telescopic rod 3. The telescopic rod 3 is arranged inside the hollow rod 2. The end face of the telescopic rod 3 located inside the hollow rod 2 is connected to several springs 8. A limiting strip 7 is provided on the hollow rod 2 to keep in contact with the springs 8 and to limit the position of one end of the springs 8.
[0025] Specifically, the number of bases 1 is not limited and can be determined according to the size of the photovoltaic panel 11. Each set of bases 1 has two sets of telescopic components installed on its upper surface. The two sets of telescopic components are used to fix the two sides of the photovoltaic panel 11, so that the photovoltaic panel 11 is tilted at a certain angle to better absorb sunlight. The two sets of telescopic components have the same structure, but the size of the telescopic components is different, so as to better achieve the tilt fixation of the photovoltaic panel 11. The inside of the U-shaped groove 5 is the same thickness as the photovoltaic panel 11, which makes it easier to insert the photovoltaic panel 11 into the U-shaped groove 5. In addition, the length of the U-shaped groove 5 is customized according to the number of photovoltaic panels 11, so that the photovoltaic panels 11 in the same row are all assembled on the U-shaped groove 5, so that the photovoltaic panels 11 in this row are all on the same plane, making it more convenient for workers to install and remove the photovoltaic panels 11.
[0026] Secondly, the outer diameter of the telescopic rod 3 is matched with the inner diameter of the hollow rod 2, so that the telescopic rod 3 can move along the length of the hollow rod 2 inside the hollow rod 2. The telescopic rod 3 is fixedly connected to several springs 8 at its end, which can create a buffer area inside the hollow rod 2. The buffer area is composed of limit strips 7 and springs 8, which can effectively reduce the impact pressure of water surface fluctuations on the photovoltaic panel and improve the stability of the system.
[0027] Through the above technical solution, the design of the U-shaped trough 5 provides a good foundation for the installation and adjustment of the photovoltaic panel 11; while the buffer area composed of the spring 8 and the limiting strip 7 further enhances the pressure resistance of the photovoltaic panel in the water environment and strengthens the adaptability and reliability of the overall device.
[0028] Please see Figure 5 In one embodiment, preferably, limiting grooves 9 are provided on both sides of the telescopic rod 3, and limiting blocks 10 connected to the hollow rod 2 are slidably installed inside the limiting grooves 9. Furthermore, with the cooperation of the limiting grooves 9 and the limiting blocks 10, the range of motion of the telescopic rod 3 can be restricted to prevent the telescopic rod 3 from leaving the interior of the hollow rod 2, thereby avoiding the problem of the photovoltaic panel 11 falling off due to the telescopic rod 3 falling off.
[0029] Please see Figures 1-3 In one embodiment, preferably, the hollow rod 2 has several through slots 6, and the outer diameter of the limiting strip 7 is adapted to the inner diameter of the through slot 6. After the limiting strip 7 is inserted into the through slot 6, friction texture is provided in the area outside the hollow rod 2. The presence of friction texture makes it convenient for workers to pull the limiting strip 7 out of the through slot 6. Furthermore, the presence of several through slots 6 allows the limiting strip 7 to be inserted into the through slot 6 at the corresponding height, which can fix the end of the photovoltaic panel 11 at different heights, so that the photovoltaic panel 11 can maintain different tilt angles and adapt to different lighting conditions.
[0030] Please see Figure 2 In one embodiment, preferably, the telescopic rod 3 and the U-shaped groove 5 are connected by a connecting frame 4. The telescopic rod 3 and the connecting frame 4 are rotatably connected. The connecting frame 4 has a limiting groove that is adapted to the outer surface of the U-shaped groove 5. The connecting frame 4 and the U-shaped groove 5 are fixedly connected. In this way, the telescopic rod 3 can adapt to photovoltaic panels 11 with different tilt angles while maintaining a vertical state.
[0031] Please see Figures 1-3 In one embodiment, preferably, a retaining strip 13 is installed on the hollow rod 2 to keep in contact with the base 1. A U-shaped frame 14 is provided on the retaining strip 13 and sleeved on the outer surface of the base 1. A bolt 15 is installed on the U-shaped frame 14 and the end of the bolt 15 passes through the U-shaped frame 14 and is threadedly connected to the base 1.
[0032] Specifically, the clip 13 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the hollow rod 2, and the opening of the U-shaped frame 14 passes through the clip 13 and connects to the base 1. Then, by passing the bolt 15 through the U-shaped frame 14 and the base 1, the base 1 and the hollow rod 2 are firmly fixed to each other, ensuring that their relative positions remain stable.
[0033] Please seeFigure 6 In one embodiment, preferably, the upper surfaces of the plurality of bases 1 are all connected to the bridge frame 12, and the lower surfaces of the plurality of bases 1 are all connected to two connecting plates 16. Multiple floats 17 are installed on the two connecting plates 16, so that the photovoltaic panel 11 can float stably on the water surface.

Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
[0035] Therefore, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit the scope of this application; that is, all equivalent modifications made in accordance with the scope of the claims of this application shall be within the protection scope of the claims of this application.
