Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic support technology, specifically a roof photovoltaic support with a quick positioning groove. Background Technology

[0002] Rooftop photovoltaic (PV) brackets are support structures specifically designed for installing solar photovoltaic panels on rooftops. They are mainly used in residential and commercial rooftop PV projects. Common materials include hot-dip galvanized steel, galvanized aluminum-magnesium steel, and weathering steel. Weathering steel brackets do not require additional anti-corrosion treatment, are environmentally friendly, and have low maintenance costs. They consist of components such as rear columns, front columns, and crossbeams, and are connected by bolts for easy installation and maintenance. With the continuous development of PV technology, various types of PV brackets have emerged, such as a rooftop PV bracket with a quick-positioning slot.

[0003] Currently, most sloping roof supports on the market consist of roof hooks, guide rails, and pressure blocks. They typically do not damage the roof waterproofing (non-penetrating type). The hooks directly clamp or connect to the roof rafters, resulting in a relatively simple structure. Although they can provide stable fixation, they require measurement, marking, and high precision. Using a level and adjusting each bolt individually is very tedious. Placing the photovoltaic panels, aligning them, finding the correct holes from a pile of bolts, inserting the bolts, putting on the nuts, and tightening them are all cumbersome. Disassembling the installation box is also troublesome, time-consuming, and labor-intensive. Therefore, we propose a roof photovoltaic support with a quick positioning groove that allows for simple operation—"one-place" and "one-twist"—for quick positioning and efficient installation of photovoltaic panels, saving time and effort. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a rooftop photovoltaic bracket with a quick positioning groove. It features the advantages of quick positioning and efficient installation of photovoltaic panels through simple operation of "one placement" and "one rotation," saving time and effort. It solves the problems of current sloping roof brackets on the market, which require measurement, marking, high precision, and the use of a level to adjust bolts one by one, which is very cumbersome and time-consuming for placing photovoltaic panels.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned goal of quickly positioning and efficiently installing photovoltaic panels through simple operation of "one place" and "one turn", saving time and effort, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a roof photovoltaic bracket with a quick positioning groove, including a support frame, a photovoltaic panel body is provided on the outside of the support frame, three connecting rods are fixedly connected inside the support frame, and a positioning mechanism is provided inside the support frame; The positioning mechanism includes a fixing block, a placement box, a threaded column, a bearing, an arc-shaped pressure plate, insert rods, a limiting plate, and an arc-shaped block. Two fixing blocks are welded to the bottom of the support frame, and the placement box is movably connected to the opposite surfaces of the two fixing blocks. A threaded column is provided inside the support frame, and a bearing is fixedly connected to the outside of the threaded column. An arc-shaped pressure plate is provided outside the bearing, and three insert rods are welded to the outside of the arc-shaped pressure plate. A limiting plate is welded to the top of the support frame, and an arc-shaped block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the roof photovoltaic bracket.

[0006] Furthermore, the support frame has an internal thread inside, which is adapted to the threaded post.

[0007] Furthermore, four positioning blocks are welded to the bottom of the photovoltaic panel body, and positioning grooves that are adapted to the four positioning blocks are opened on the outside of the support frame.

[0008] Furthermore, the arc-shaped block has three insertion holes inside, which are respectively adapted to three insertion rods.

[0009] Furthermore, two transverse limiting rods are welded to the outside of the arc-shaped pressure plate, and the inside of the support frame is provided with movable grooves that are adapted to the two transverse limiting rods.

[0010] Furthermore, a rotating block is fixedly connected to the outside of the threaded column, and the outside of the rotating block is provided with anti-slip texture.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects: This rooftop photovoltaic bracket with a quick-positioning slot utilizes a positioning mechanism. When rapid installation of photovoltaic panels is required, the movable placement box is first erected, and the bottom of the photovoltaic panel is placed into the placement box for pre-fixation. Then, the panel is slowly tilted towards the support frame, at which point the arc-shaped block enters the support frame. By slowly rotating the rotating block, the threaded column engages with the internal thread, and the rotation simultaneously pushes the insertion rod on the arc-shaped pressure plate into the insertion hole, thus forming a rotation that fixes the photovoltaic panel. This positioning mechanism enables quick positioning and efficient installation of photovoltaic panels through simple operation—"one placement" and "one rotation"—saving time and effort.

Detailed Implementation

[0014] 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.

[0015] Please see Figure 1-4 In this embodiment, a roof photovoltaic bracket with a quick positioning groove includes a support frame 1, a photovoltaic panel body 2 is provided on the outside of the support frame 1, three connecting rods 3 are fixedly connected inside the support frame 1, and a positioning mechanism 4 is provided inside the support frame 1. The positioning mechanism 4 includes a fixing block 401, a placement box 402, a threaded column 403, a bearing 404, an arc-shaped pressure plate 405, a plug rod 406, a limiting plate 407, and an arc-shaped block 408. Two fixing blocks 401 are welded to the bottom of the support frame 1. The placement box 402 is movably connected to the opposite surfaces of the two fixing blocks 401. The threaded column 403 is provided inside the support frame 1. The bearing 404 is fixedly connected to the outside of the threaded column 403. The arc-shaped pressure plate 405 is provided outside the bearing 404. Three plug rods 406 are welded to the outside of the arc-shaped pressure plate 405. The limiting plate 407 is welded to the top of the support frame 1. The arc-shaped block 408 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the roof photovoltaic bracket.

[0016] In the implementation of the case, the support frame 1 has an internal thread 5, which is adapted to the threaded post 403. The threaded drive has a force amplification effect. By rotating the rotating block 9 with a small torque, a large axial thrust can be generated, which pushes the arc-shaped pressure plate 405 and the insertion rod 406 forward, ensuring that the insertion rod 406 can be firmly inserted into the insertion hole 7 with sufficient locking force. Ordinary threaded pairs have self-locking properties. When the rotating block 9 stops rotating, the threaded post 403 will remain in position in the internal thread 5 and will not loosen due to the weight or vibration of the photovoltaic panel itself, which greatly enhances the reliability and stability of locking.

[0017] In the case implementation, four positioning blocks 6 are welded to the bottom of the photovoltaic panel body 2, and positioning grooves that match the four positioning blocks 6 are opened on the outside of the support frame 1. The core of quick initial positioning is: before leaning the photovoltaic panel against the support frame 1, the operator can first align the positioning blocks 6 with the positioning grooves on the support frame 1. This ensures that the photovoltaic panel is in a state very close to the correct installation position before final fixing, realizing true "quick positioning".

[0018] In the implementation of the case, the arc-shaped block 408 has three insertion holes 7 inside, which are respectively adapted to three insertion rods 406. The insertion rods 406 are inserted into the insertion holes 7 to form an interference or tight fit mechanical connection. This is a very direct and reliable rigid locking method that can effectively resist forces such as wind loads that attempt to pull up the photovoltaic panel.

[0019] In the implementation of this case, two lateral limiting rods 8 are welded to the outside of the arc-shaped pressure plate 405. The support frame 1 has an internal movable groove that matches the two lateral limiting rods 8. The structure consisting of the lateral limiting rods 8 and the movable groove ensures that the arc-shaped pressure plate 405 can only move along a preset straight path. Figure 2 It moves vertically without swaying or getting stuck.

[0020] In the case implementation, the threaded post 403 is externally fixedly connected to a rotating block 9. The rotating block 9 has anti-slip texture on its exterior. The operation method is labor-saving and efficient: the rotating block 9 provides a lever arm, which allows the operator to rotate the threaded post 403 with less effort. Compared with directly tightening the bare threaded post 403 by hand, the comfort and efficiency of operation are greatly improved.

[0021] When implementing this procedure, please follow these steps: 1) When the photovoltaic panels need to be installed quickly, first erect the movable connection placement box 402; 2) Then, the bottom of the photovoltaic panel body 2 is placed into the placement box 402 to form a "placement" for pre-fixation; 3) Slowly lean against the support frame 1, at which point the arc-shaped block 408 enters the interior of the support frame 1; 4) Finally, by slowly rotating the rotating block 9, the threaded column 403 engages with the internal thread 5. While rotating, the insertion rod 406 on the arc-shaped pressure plate 405 is pushed into the insertion hole 7, thus forming a "rotation" to fix the photovoltaic panel body 2.

[0022] In summary, this rooftop photovoltaic bracket with a quick positioning groove, through the setting of the positioning mechanism 4, allows for rapid installation of photovoltaic panels. First, the movable placement box 402 is erected, and the bottom of the photovoltaic panel body 2 is placed into the placement box 402 to form a "placement" for pre-fixation. Then, it is slowly leaned against the support frame 1. At this time, the arc-shaped block 408 enters the support frame 1. By slowly rotating the rotating block 9, the threaded column 403 engages with the internal thread 5. While rotating, the insertion rod 406 on the arc-shaped pressure plate 405 is pushed into the insertion hole 7, thus forming a "rotation" to fix the photovoltaic panel body 2. This positioning mechanism 4 can quickly position and efficiently install photovoltaic panels through simple operation of "placement" and "rotation", saving time and effort.
