Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic flexible support connection technology, specifically to a carbon fiber rope mounting clip for a flexible support. Background Technology

[0002] In photovoltaic (PV) support systems, steel strands are commonly used as support and connection components. However, steel strands have significant drawbacks: firstly, they are susceptible to corrosion and wear due to environmental factors, especially in harsh environments like those at sea with high humidity and salt spray, where corrosion occurs even faster; secondly, their weight increases the overall load on the support structure, complicates installation, and requires substantial maintenance to ensure proper performance. To address these issues, carbon fiber ropes have been introduced as a replacement in practical engineering. Carbon fiber ropes offer advantages such as light weight, corrosion resistance, and high strength. However, this raises the issue of reliable connection between the carbon fiber ropes and the flexible PV support system, particularly the steel structural components. Existing connection methods struggle to ensure effective contact between the carbon fiber ropes and the steel structure, leading to uneven stress distribution on the ropes. Prolonged use can damage the carbon fiber ropes, affecting the stability and lifespan of the PV support system. Therefore, improvements are needed to address these problems. Utility Model Content

[0003] In response to the above situation and to overcome the current technical defects, this utility model provides a mounting clip for a carbon fiber rope of a flexible support. This mounting clip achieves a stable connection between the carbon fiber rope and the steel structure by optimizing the clip structure design, while avoiding damage to the carbon fiber rope caused by excessive local stress.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: it includes fixing clips and bolts. The fixing clips are provided in two sets, which are symmetrically arranged. Each set of fixing clips has a bending structure in the middle that matches the diameter of the carbon fiber rope to be installed. The bending height of the bending structure is slightly smaller than the radius of the carbon fiber rope, which is used to fit the outer surface of the carbon fiber rope. When the two sets of fixing clips are closed to clamp the carbon fiber rope, a small gap is left between the fixing clips and the carbon fiber rope. Both ends of the two sets of fixing clips are provided with corresponding bolt holes. The bolts are detachably installed on the fixing clips through the bolt holes at both ends of the fixing clips. By tightening the bolts, the gap between the two fixing clips can be reduced, thereby clamping and fixing the carbon fiber rope within the bending structure of the two fixing clips.

[0005] Preferred technical solution 1: Both ends of the two sets of fixing clips are provided with outwardly extending ear structures. The bolt holes are opened on the ear structures. The ear structures are used to increase the force-bearing area of ​​the bolt connection, avoid damage to the fixing clips due to excessive local force during bolt tightening, and facilitate bolt installation and disassembly operations.

[0006] Preferred technical solution 2: The inner surface of the fixed clip bending structure is provided with anti-slip texture to increase the friction between the fixed clip and the carbon fiber rope and prevent the carbon fiber rope from shifting.

[0007] Preferred technical solution 3: The two ends of the bending structure of the fixing clip are provided with smooth transition arcs to avoid sharp stress concentration points when the fixing clip comes into contact with the carbon fiber rope, and to prevent the carbon fiber rope from being scratched by the edge of the clip during installation and use.

[0008] Preferred technical solution four: The bolt is a high-strength corrosion-resistant bolt, and the bolt surface is provided with a zinc plating layer to enhance the corrosion resistance of the bolt.

[0009] Preferred technical solution five: The fixing clip is made of high-strength stainless steel.

[0010] Preferred technical solution six: The thickness of the fixing clip is 3-5mm, so that the fixing clip can maintain sufficient structural strength and meet the force requirements of clamping the carbon fiber rope.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model by adopting the above structure are as follows:

[0012] 1. This utility model solves the connection problem between carbon fiber rope and photovoltaic flexible support steel structure by using two fixed clamping plates with bending structure and bolts to clamp carbon fiber rope. Moreover, the bending diameter of the bending structure is adapted to the diameter of carbon fiber rope, which increases the contact area between carbon fiber rope and fixed clamping plate, effectively disperses the force on carbon fiber rope, avoids damage due to uneven local stress on carbon fiber rope, and extends the service life of carbon fiber rope.

[0013] 2. The fixing clips are made of high-strength stainless steel, and the bolts are galvanized high-strength corrosion-resistant bolts. The inner surface of the clip bending structure is provided with anti-slip texture. During use, it can provide good corrosion resistance and adapt to the harsh marine environment, and also increase the friction with the carbon fiber rope to improve the reliability and stability of the connection with the carbon fiber rope.

[0014] 3. This fixing clip has a simple structure, few parts, and is easy to install and disassemble, making it convenient for later maintenance and replacement. At the same time, the design of each component conforms to the concept of lightweighting, which will not increase the overall load of the photovoltaic bracket, and is conducive to the overall stability and efficient operation of the photovoltaic bracket system.

[0022] Example 1

[0023] like Figure 1 — Figure 3As shown, the installation clips for the carbon fiber rope of the flexible support provided in this solution include fixing clips 1 and bolts 2. The fixing clips 1 are made of high-strength stainless steel with a thickness of 3-5mm. There are two sets of fixing clips 1, which are symmetrically arranged. Each set of fixing clips 1 has a bending structure 3 in the middle position that matches the diameter of the carbon fiber rope 5 to be installed. The bending height of the bending structure 3 is slightly smaller than the radius of the carbon fiber rope 5, which is used to fit the outer surface of the carbon fiber rope 5. The inner surface of the bending structure 3 has anti-slip texture to increase the friction between the fixing clips 1 and the carbon fiber rope 5 and prevent the carbon fiber rope 5 from shifting. The two ends of the bending structure 3 have smooth transition arcs to avoid sharp stress concentration points when the fixing clips 1 and the carbon fiber rope 5 come into contact, thus preventing the carbon fiber rope from shifting. 5. During installation and use, the edges of the clamping plates are scratched. When the two sets of fixing clamping plates 1 are aligned to clamp the carbon fiber rope 5, there is a small gap 4 between the fixing clamping plates 1 and the carbon fiber rope 5. Both ends of the two sets of fixing clamping plates 1 are provided with corresponding bolt holes. Both ends of the two sets of fixing clamping plates 1 are provided with outwardly extending ear structures 6. The two ends of the ear structures 6 are symmetrically provided with bolt holes. The bolts 2 are high-strength corrosion-resistant bolts, and the surface of the bolts 2 is provided with a galvanized layer. The bolts 2 can be detachably installed on the fixing clamping plates 1 through the bolt holes. The ear structures 6 are used to increase the force-bearing area of ​​the bolt 2 connection to avoid damage to the fixing clamping plates 1 due to excessive local force during the tightening of the bolts 2. By tightening the bolts 2, the gap between the two fixing clamping plates 1 can be reduced, thereby clamping and fixing the carbon fiber rope 5 within the bending structure 3 of the two fixing clamping plates 1.

[0024] In practical use, two fixing clips 1 are symmetrically placed at the connection position between the carbon fiber rope 5 and the steel structure beam 7, so that the carbon fiber rope 5 is located within the bending structure 3 of the two fixing clips 1, ensuring that the bending structure 3 fits snugly against the carbon fiber rope 5. Bolts 2 are passed through the bolt holes of the ear structure 6 at both ends of the two fixing clips 1, and a wrench is used to tighten the bolts 2, fixing the two fixing clips 1 to the carbon fiber rope 5. During the tightening process, the small gap 4 between the two sets of fixing clips 1 gradually decreases, and the clamping force of the bending structure 3 on the carbon fiber rope 5 gradually increases until the carbon fiber rope 5 is firmly clamped, at which point the installation is complete. During use, due to the large contact area between the bending structure 3 of the fixing clips 1 and the carbon fiber rope 5, and the anti-slip texture effectively preventing the carbon fiber rope 5 from slipping, the problem of uneven local stress on the carbon fiber rope 5 can be effectively avoided. At the same time, the high-strength stainless steel fixing clips 1 and the galvanized bolts 2 work together to ensure the corrosion resistance of the installation clips in the high salt spray environment at sea, extending the service life of the overall connection structure.
