Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic module support technology, specifically a photovoltaic module support device that facilitates quick assembly and disassembly. Background Technology

[0002] The photovoltaic module support device, which allows for quick and easy installation and disassembly, is a modular, tool-free or tool-less structural system designed to simplify the installation and maintenance process of photovoltaic panels, improve efficiency, and reduce costs. Photovoltaic modules are typically fixed to a support frame, which consists of columns and support rods. The photovoltaic modules are secured to the support rods by pressure plates. The pressure plates can be installed with medium or low pressure. With medium pressure, the pressure plate is installed between two photovoltaic panels, leaving a gap between them. With low pressure, U-bolts are used to connect the pressure plate to the inner side of the frame at the lower end of the photovoltaic panels, ensuring a tight fit between the two panels.

[0003] The current downward-pressing fixing method requires first fitting the pressure plate onto the U-bolt connector, then placing the pressure plate and U-bolt connector onto the support rod. Next, the limiting plate at the lower end of the U-bolt connector is installed, and the nuts are tightened to firmly press the pressure plate onto the photovoltaic panel frame. This fixing method requires tightening numerous nuts, making assembly and disassembly time-consuming and labor-intensive. Therefore, a photovoltaic module support device that facilitates quick assembly and disassembly is needed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

The lower end of the first L-shaped limiting plate 202 is fixed to one end of the first connecting plate 200, and the upper end is clamped inside the lower frame of the photovoltaic panel. The second connector 21 includes a second connecting plate 210, a threaded tube 211, and a second L-shaped limiting plate 212. The second connecting plate 210 is attached to the lower end of the first connecting plate 200. The threaded tube 211 passes through and is fixed to the lower end of the second connecting plate 210. The lower end of the second L-shaped limiting plate 212 is fixed to one end of the second connecting plate 210, and the upper end is stuck inside the lower frame of the photovoltaic panel. The threaded hole 201 and the threaded tube 211 are aligned, and the fastening bolt 22 is screwed into the threaded hole 201 and the threaded tube 211, with its upper end firmly abutting against the lower end of the support rod 10. When the second connecting plate 210 is attached to the lower end of the first connecting plate 200, the upper ends of the first L-shaped limiting plate 202 and the second L-shaped limiting plate 212 are at the same height. The first connector 20, the second connector 21, and the fastening bolt 22 are used to fix the photovoltaic panel module. The first connecting plate 200 and the second connecting plate 210 serve as a connection. The threaded hole 201 and the threaded tube 211 are used to connect the fastening bolt 22. The first L-shaped limiting plate 202 and the second L-shaped limiting plate 212 serve as limiting plates.

[0019] Working principle: Place two adjacent photovoltaic panels on two support rods 10, and screw the fastening bolts 22 into the threaded tubes 211. Hold the first connector 20 and the second connector 21 with both hands respectively. First, move the middle position of the first L-shaped limiting plate 202 upward from the support rod 10, and the upper end is locked on the frame at the lower end of one of the photovoltaic panels. Follow the same steps to lock the upper end of the second L-shaped limiting plate 212 on the frame at the lower end of the other photovoltaic panel. At this time, the second connecting plate 210 is attached to the lower end of the first connecting plate 200. Hold the first connector 20 and the second connector 21 with one hand, and use a wrench to turn the fastening bolts 22. Tighten the threaded hole 201 at the upper end of the fastening bolts 22 until the upper end is pressed against the lower end of the support rod 10.
