Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bracket technology, and specifically relates to an adjustable bracket for photovoltaic water heaters. Background Technology

[0002] Photovoltaic water heaters are a type of new energy household product. They convert sunlight into electricity and use it to heat water. The water is heated by photovoltaic heating rods for hot water and heating purposes. During installation, photovoltaic water heaters require brackets to support and fix the photovoltaic panels and the hot water tank.

[0003] While existing photovoltaic water heater brackets are sturdy and their 45-degree slope maximizes solar radiation absorption by the photovoltaic panels, they also present other problems during use. For example, they lack bottom adjustment functionality. When using the bracket, it is necessary to ensure that the four support surfaces at the bottom are in contact with the ground. If the ground is not flat or has a slope or steps, the bracket may tilt, causing the angle of the photovoltaic panels to deviate, resulting in poor stability. Furthermore, it is not convenient to quickly install or remove the photovoltaic panels. The photovoltaic panels are directly fixed with screws during installation. Although this is stable and reliable, when the photovoltaic panels malfunction and need repair or maintenance, tools are required, reducing the efficiency of personnel. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an adjustable bracket for a photovoltaic water heater, which has the advantages of having an adjustable bottom and facilitating quick assembly and disassembly of the photovoltaic panel.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: an adjustable bracket for a photovoltaic water heater, comprising a connecting plate, side plates bolted to both the front and back of the connecting plate, an adjusting plate provided on one side of the connecting plate, a fixing seat welded to one side of the back of each of the two side plates, two threaded rods rotatably connected to one side of the adjusting plate via bearings, the other end of the threaded rods penetrating and extending to the outside of the fixing seat, a bearing plate installed on the other side of the side plate, a lower retaining seat and a fixing plate respectively installed between the two side plates, an upper retaining seat provided inside the fixing plate, and a limit spring bolted between the top of the upper retaining seat and the fixing plate via a spring fixing piece.

[0006] The above technical solution features adjustable bottom, which improves the applicable environment range of the bracket, ensures the orientation and power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic panels, and provides good stability and flexibility. It also facilitates quick and easy installation and removal of photovoltaic panels, making operation simple and labor-saving, improving the efficiency of personnel inspection and maintenance, and making it highly practical.

[0007] The present invention is further provided that the surfaces of the connecting plate, the side plate and the adjusting plate are all coated with anti-corrosion coating.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the anti-corrosion and moisture-proof effects of the connecting plate, side plate and adjusting plate can be improved by applying anti-corrosion coating.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that a throttle handle is bolted to the other end of the threaded rod.

[0010] The above technical solution allows for easy rotation of the threaded rod by the use of a throttle handle.

[0011] The present invention is further provided that wear-resistant pads are bolted to the bottom of both the side plate and the adjustment plate.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the wear resistance of the bottom of the connecting plate and the adjusting plate can be improved by setting wear-resistant pads.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that a damper is installed between the top of the upper card holder and the fixing plate.

[0014] The above technical solution utilizes a damper to suppress the jumping of the limit spring, dissipate the kinetic energy stored in the limit spring, and improve stability.

[0015] The present invention is further provided that the top of the side plate is integrally stamped with a groove.

[0016] The above technical solution allows for easy placement and securing of the hot water tank by the use of grooves.

[0017] The present invention is further configured such that the limiting spring is made of carbon spring steel.

[0018] Using the above technical solution, the limit spring has the characteristics of excellent mechanical properties, good resistance to spring reduction, low temperature resistance and corrosion resistance.

[0019] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. First, place the bracket in a suitable position and assemble it. When the bracket is placed and tilted to the left, one person will straighten the bracket so that the bottom left side is suspended in the air. Then, another person will hold the handle and turn it. When the handle is turned, it will drive the threaded rod to rotate downward through the cooperation of the fixed seat. When the threaded rod moves downward, it will drive the adjusting plate to move downward together through the cooperation of the bearing until it is in contact with the ground. It has the function of bottom adjustment, which improves the applicable environment of the bracket, ensures the orientation of the photovoltaic panel and the power generation efficiency, and has good stability and flexibility.

[0021] 2. By lifting the hot water tank into the top recess and fixing it with screws, the photovoltaic panel is lifted. After the hot water tank is fixed, the top of the photovoltaic panel is first inserted into the upper bracket and pushed upward. When the upper bracket moves upward under the pushing force, it will compress the limit spring and damper, causing them to contract. When the photovoltaic panel is pushed all the way down, the bottom end is pushed inward and placed into the lower bracket. This method facilitates quick and easy installation and removal of the photovoltaic panel, is simple and labor-saving, improves the efficiency of personnel inspection and maintenance, and is highly practical.
