[0025] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The preferred embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a solar panel mounting structure 100 for streetlights, including: a base 110, which can be spliced and connected for fixing to the outer ring of the light pole; multiple solar panels 120, each solar panel 120 having a connecting seat 122 at both ends in the length direction, the length direction of the solar panel 120 being arranged along the extension direction of the light pole, and adjacent solar panels 120 being sequentially connected in the width direction for surrounding the outer ring of the light pole; and a fixing seat 130, located at both ends in the length direction of the solar panel 120, the fixing seat 130 including multiple splicable connecting plates 132, the multiple connecting plates 132 being connected one-to-one with the multiple solar panels 120, and the fixing seat 130 being able to be fixed to the outer ring of the light pole; wherein, the connecting seat 122 located at one end of the solar panel 120 can be engaged with the base 110.
[0027] Specifically, the base 110 adopts a modular connection method, facilitating its fit and fixation with the outer ring of the light pole. It also serves as a stable support for the solar panels 120. The solar panels 120 are configured as multiple separate units, with adjacent panels 120 sequentially joined together in the width direction, forming a complete enclosure around the outer ring of the light pole. This avoids the traditional single large panel configuration, instead using a combination of multiple smaller panels, requiring only on-site assembly after transportation. Furthermore, the fixing bases 130 are located at both ends of the solar panels 120 along their length and are composed of multiple modular connecting plates 132. These connecting plates 132 connect one-to-one with the multiple solar panels 120, and the fixing bases 130 can be fixed to the outer ring of the light pole, further stabilizing the solar panels 120 on the pole. One end of the connecting base 122 of the solar panel 120 can engage with the base 110, reducing the difficulty of assembly and allowing a single person to complete the necessary assembly work.
[0028] Using the aforementioned solar panel mounting structure 100 for streetlights, during assembly, it is only necessary to first assemble the base 110 to fix it to the outer ring of the light pole, providing the necessary support for subsequent installation. After fixing the base 110 to the light pole, one of the fixing seats 130 can be attached to the base 110, and multiple solar panels 120 can be secured to the base 110 via connecting seats 122 to assemble and maintain the current state of the solar panels 120. Then, another set of fixing seats 130 is assembled, and the fixing seats 130 at both ends of the solar panels 120 are connected to the solar panels 120 respectively, ensuring the reliability of the assembled state of the solar panels 120, thereby forming a stable connection with the light pole.
[0029] The solar panel mounting structure 100 for streetlights provided in this application embodiment uses multiple solar panels 120 spliced together. This makes each individual solar panel 120 small in size and light in weight, facilitating transportation and installation. Furthermore, the splicable design of the base 110 and the fixing seat 130 allows for quick assembly without complex operations. The multiple solar panels 120 are arranged in a ring around the outer edge of the light pole. Compared to the traditional single large panel, this disperses the windward surface, reduces wind resistance, and improves stability during later use, reducing the risk of damage due to strong winds. In addition, the solar panels 120 are snapped onto the base 110 via connecting seats 122, and further secured from both ends by the fixing seats 130. This multiple securing method ensures the stability of the solar panels 120 on the light pole, reducing the possibility of shaking or detachment. By adopting the above method, the installation difficulty of the solar panels 120 is reduced while also improving stability during later use.
[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, the base 110 includes a first half 112 and a second half 114 that can be joined together. A first ear plate 1122 is provided on the first half 112, and a second ear plate 1142 is provided on the second half 114. When the first half 112 and the second half 114 are spliced together, the first ear plate 1122 and the second ear plate 1142 are in contact, and the first ear plate 1122 and the second ear plate 1142 can be connected by a first connector.
[0031] Specifically, through the cooperation of the first half 112 and the second half 114, during installation, the first half 112 and the second half 114 can be placed on both sides of the lamp post. After alignment, the first ear plate 1122 and the second ear plate 1142 can fit together, facilitating the connection of the first ear plate 1122 and the second ear plate 1142 via the first connector. This ensures that the base 110 can be stably fixed on the lamp post, providing reliable support for the solar panel 120. The first connector can be secured using a bolt and nut combination.
[0032] like Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the base 110 has multiple slots 115, and the connecting seat 122 is provided with a locking block 1222. Multiple solar panels 120 are locked in place by the corresponding locking blocks 1222 and the multiple slots 115.
[0033] Using the above-described configuration, during installation, multiple solar panels 120 are simply engaged with the corresponding slots 115 on the base 110 via their respective locking blocks 1222, thus connecting the solar panels 120 to the base 110. This locking connection method between the locking blocks 1222 and the slots 115 is a quick-connect structure, requiring no complex tools and enabling rapid positioning and fixation of the solar panels 120 to the base 110, shortening installation time. When maintenance or replacement of the solar panels 120 is needed, simply remove the locking blocks 1222 from the slots 115, simplifying the maintenance process and reducing maintenance costs.
[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, the first half 112 and the second half 114 each have an arc-shaped notch 116 for fitting with the lamp post. The two arc-shaped notches 116 can be closed to form a circle, and an arc-shaped plate 118 is provided on the edge of the arc-shaped notch 116. A through hole 1182 is provided on the arc-shaped plate 118 for the first fastener to pass through the through hole 1182 and abut against the lamp post.
[0035] Specifically, the arc-shaped notch 116 is adapted to the shape of the lamp post, allowing the base 110 to fit tightly against the lamp post, thus improving the compatibility between the base 110 and the lamp post. Furthermore, the connection strength between the base 110 and the lamp post is further enhanced by the first fastener passing through the through hole 1182 in the arc-shaped plate 118 and abutting against the lamp post, preventing the base 110 from sliding or rotating on the lamp post, especially ensuring the stability of the overall structure under adverse weather conditions. The first fastener can be a bolt or screw.
[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, a plurality of clearance grooves 134 are formed on the fixing base 130, and the plurality of clearance grooves 134 are configured to correspond one-to-one with a plurality of slots 115.
[0037] Specifically, the clearance groove 134 is configured to leave space for the slot 115 on the base 110 and the locking block 1222 on the solar panel 120 connector 122. When installing the fixing seat 130, it will not collide or interfere with the locking block 1222 or the slot 115, ensuring the smoothness of the installation process.
[0038] Please continue to refer to this. Figure 4Connecting plates 1322 are provided on opposite sides of the connecting plate 132. When multiple connecting plates 132 are spliced together, the connecting plates 1322 of adjacent connecting plates 132 are joined together to be connected by a second connector. Connecting plates 132 are also provided with connecting holes 1324 so that a third connector can pass through the connecting holes 1324 and connect to the connecting seat 122.
[0039] Specifically, the design of the connecting lugs 1322 allows for flexible splicing of multiple connecting plates 132. The size of the mounting base 130 can be adjusted according to the number of solar panels 120 and the size of the light pole to adapt to different installation needs. When multiple connecting plates 132 are spliced, the connecting lugs 1322 of adjacent connecting plates 132 abut against each other and are connected by a second connector (such as a bolt). The connecting plates 132 are also provided with connecting holes 1324, through which a third connector (such as a screw) can pass to connect with the mounting base 122 of the solar panel 120. In addition, the connecting lugs 1322 of adjacent connecting plates 132 are connected by the second connector, ensuring the overall strength of the mounting base 130 after splicing; at the same time, the third connector passes through the connecting hole 1324 to connect with the mounting base 122, ensuring a reliable connection between the mounting base 130 and the solar panel 120, further improving the stability of the solar panel 120 on the light pole.
[0040] like Figure 4 As shown, the connecting plate 132 is provided with an arc-shaped clearance opening 1326, and adjacent arc-shaped clearance openings 1326 are connected in sequence to form a circle. An arc-shaped positioning plate 1328 is also provided on the edge of the arc-shaped clearance opening 1326. The arc-shaped positioning plate 1328 is provided with a positioning hole 1328a, which is used to allow the second fastener to pass through the positioning hole 1328a and abut against the lamp post.
[0041] Specifically, the circular shape formed by the arc-shaped clearance 1326 is adapted to the light pole, allowing the mounting bracket 130 to fit tightly against the light pole, thus improving the compatibility between the mounting bracket 130 and the light pole. Simultaneously, the second fastener passes through the positioning hole 1328a and abuts against the light pole, enhancing the friction and connection strength between the mounting bracket 130 and the light pole, preventing the mounting bracket 130 from loosening or sliding on the light pole, and ensuring the stable installation of the solar panel 120.
[0042] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, protective frames are also provided on both sides of the solar panel 120 in the width direction. The protective frames are connected to the connecting seat 122 to form a frame structure. A storage battery 140 is also electrically connected to the back of each solar panel 120. The storage battery 140 is fixedly connected to the protective frame and is used to supply power to the street light.
[0043] Specifically, protective frames are provided on both sides of the solar panel 120 in the width direction. The protective frames are connected to the connecting seat 122 to form a frame structure, which protects the solar panel 120. The battery 140 is electrically connected to the solar panel 120 and fixed on the protective frame, realizing an integrated design of power generation and energy storage, simplifying the power supply line layout of the street light, and facilitating installation and maintenance. At the same time, the battery 140 can store the electrical energy generated by the solar panel 120, ensuring a stable power supply for the street light at night or on cloudy days.
[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the protective frame is also equipped with light strips, which are arranged along the length of the solar panel 120 and are electrically connected to the battery 140.
[0045] Specifically, the installation of light strips increases the illumination area and brightness of streetlights, serving as a supplement to the main streetlight illumination and enhancing nighttime lighting effects. They are particularly suitable for lighting areas such as road edges and sidewalks.
[0046] This utility model also discloses a street light, including a lamp post and a solar panel mounting structure 100 for the street light as described above, wherein the solar panel mounting structure 100 is mounted on the lamp post. This street light has the same structure and beneficial effects as the solar panel mounting structure 100 for the street light in the foregoing embodiments. The structure and beneficial effects of the solar panel mounting structure 100 for the street light have been described in detail in the foregoing embodiments and will not be repeated here.
