Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic support technology, specifically an adjustable support for a rooftop photovoltaic system. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of renewable energy technologies, photovoltaic (PV) systems have been widely used as a clean and efficient energy conversion method. Among the many PV system installation methods, rooftop PV systems are favored due to their advantages such as not occupying additional land resources and reducing transmission losses. However, traditional rooftop PV system support designs have certain limitations, such as limited adaptability to PV panels of different sizes and difficulty in flexibly adjusting the angle of the PV panels to maximize solar energy collection efficiency.

[0003] Most existing rooftop photovoltaic (PV) system brackets employ a fixed design, meaning that once installed, the angle and position of the PV panels are difficult to adjust. While this design simplifies the installation process, it limits the energy harvesting efficiency of the PV system, especially under seasonal changes or variations in the solar altitude angle over time. Furthermore, traditional brackets often require customized solutions for PV panels of different sizes and shapes, increasing cost and installation complexity. Therefore, this invention proposes an adjustable bracket for rooftop PV systems. Utility Model Content
