Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic panel installation, and more particularly to photovoltaic panel mounting brackets. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, in existing photovoltaic (PV) panel installation processes, PV panels typically need to be fixed using brackets. Especially when the brackets are designed with an angled surface to accommodate the roof or ground tilt, the PV panels are often positioned initially using only temporary placement or manual support. Due to the PV panels' significant weight and smooth surface, they are easily slipped down the slope under gravity before being fully secured. This not only increases the difficulty and safety risks for installers but may also lead to displacement, collisions, or even damage to the PV panels. Furthermore, manual support is inefficient, especially in large-scale installation scenarios, severely hindering construction progress. Although some existing technologies attempt to alleviate this problem by adding temporary clips or auxiliary supports, these solutions are often structurally complex, have poor adaptability, or require additional tools, failing to fundamentally solve the pre-positioning problem of PV panels on angled brackets.

[0003] Therefore, a photovoltaic panel mounting bracket was designed. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a photovoltaic panel mounting frame. It solves the problem that during the installation of traditional photovoltaic brackets and photovoltaic panels, the photovoltaic panels on the inclined brackets are prone to sliding down due to gravity due to the lack of a limiting structure, requiring manual support, which increases operational risks and affects efficiency.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A photovoltaic panel mounting frame includes a support frame, a fixing frame mounted on the upper surface of the support frame, and a limiter disposed at the bottom of the fixing frame. The outer surfaces of the support frame, the fixing frame, and the limiter are all provided with an anti-rust coating.

[0006] Preferably, the support frame consists of two symmetrically arranged triangular brackets and a crossbar connecting the two, the fixing frame is used to support the photovoltaic panel, and the limiter is used to limit and fix the photovoltaic panel.

[0007] Preferably, each of the two triangular supports of the support frame has an insertion groove on its inclined surface, and the bottom of the fixing frame is provided with an insertion block, the insertion block and the insertion groove forming an inclined surface self-locking structure.

[0008] Preferably, the fixing frame is a hollow frame structure with limiting plates symmetrically arranged on both sides for limiting the left and right sides of the photovoltaic panel.

[0009] Preferably, the limiters are multiple and arranged in a linear array at the bottom of the fixing frame, and each limiter is a U-shaped structure used to support and limit the bottom of the photovoltaic panel.

[0010] Preferably, the inner side of the U-shaped structure of the limiter is provided with a protective pad made of elastic rubber, and the surface of the protective pad is provided with anti-slip texture for cushioning and anti-slip.

[0011] Preferably, each of the limiters is rotatably connected to the fixed frame via a rotating shaft, the rotating shaft passing through the limit plates on both sides.

[0012] Preferably, the two ends of the rotating shaft are provided with limit plates to prevent the limiters from moving axially.

[0013] Preferably, the limiter can rotate around the pivot and has two states: a working position and a cleaning position. The U-shaped opening faces upward to support the photovoltaic panel; rotation causes the U-shaped opening to face downward, making it easier to remove accumulated dust.

[0014] Preferably, each of the plurality of limiters has a circular hole, and the limit plate and the limiter have positioning holes at corresponding positions. A positioning pin is slidably inserted into the positioning hole to fix the rotation angle of the limiter.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This utility model achieves three core advantages through innovative structural design: convenient installation, stable operation, and efficient maintenance. Its inclined self-locking structure (with the insertion block and insertion slot working together) significantly improves installation efficiency, allowing a single person to quickly and accurately complete the positioning. The U-shaped limiter array, combined with the elastic protective pad with anti-slip texture, forms multiple layers of protection, improving wind resistance. The unique rotatable design, combined with the positioning pin mechanism, greatly improves the efficiency of dust removal and maintenance, and can accurately fix the working angle. It solves the key problem of traditional photovoltaic brackets and photovoltaic panels, where photovoltaic panels on inclined brackets are prone to sliding due to gravity due to the lack of a limiting structure, requiring manual support. In addition, the overall structure adopts a professional anti-rust treatment process, which greatly improves the durability and service life of the equipment in harsh outdoor environments, providing a reliable guarantee for the long-term stable operation of photovoltaic power stations.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-5A photovoltaic panel mounting frame includes a support frame 1, a fixing frame 2 mounted on the upper surface of the support frame 1, and a limiter 3 set at the bottom of the fixing frame 2. The outer surfaces of the support frame 1, the fixing frame 2 and the limiter 3 are all coated with an anti-rust coating. The support frame 1 consists of two symmetrically arranged triangular brackets and a crossbar connecting the two. The fixing frame 2 is used to support the photovoltaic panel, and the limiter 3 is used to limit and fix the photovoltaic panel. The two triangular supports of the support frame 1 are provided with insertion slots 11 on their inclined surfaces. The bottom of the fixed frame 2 is provided with an insertion block 22. The insertion block 22 and the insertion slot 11 form an inclined self-locking structure. The fixed frame 2 is a hollow frame structure with limit plates 21 symmetrically arranged on both sides for limiting the left and right sides of the photovoltaic panel. Multiple limiters 3 are arranged in a linear array at the bottom of the fixing frame 2. Each limiter 3 is a U-shaped structure used to support and limit the bottom of the photovoltaic panel. This photovoltaic panel mounting frame achieves efficient installation and stable operation through innovative structural design. During installation, the insertion block 22 at the bottom of the fixing frame 2 and the insertion slot 11 of the support frame 1 are quickly locked together by the inclined self-locking structure, achieving precise positioning without the need for bolt tightening. After the photovoltaic panel is placed, the limit plates 21 on both sides automatically guide the positioning, and the array of U-shaped limiters 3 at the bottom provides uniform support, forming a stable three-point fixing mode. This design utilizes the inclined self-locking structure to improve installation efficiency, allowing a single person to complete the operation. The hollow frame structure reduces weight while ensuring strength, and the anti-rust coating adapts to various harsh environments. The linearly arranged U-shaped limiters ensure uniform force on the panel and avoid local stress concentration. After installation, the entire device is structurally stable and reliable, effectively resisting strong wind loads and significantly reducing installation and maintenance costs. It is particularly suitable for the rapid deployment of large-scale photovoltaic power plants.

[0024] Please see Figure 4 The U-shaped structure of the limiter 3 is provided with a protective pad 31 made of elastic rubber. The surface of the protective pad 31 is provided with anti-slip texture for cushioning and anti-slip. Each limiter 3 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 2 through a rotating shaft 32. The rotating shaft 32 passes through the limit plates 21 on both sides. Limiting round plates 321 are provided at both ends of the rotating shaft 32 to prevent the limiter 3 from moving axially. The limiter 3 can rotate around the rotating shaft 32 and has two states: working position and cleaning position. The U-shaped opening faces upward to support the photovoltaic panel; rotation makes the U-shaped opening face downward, which is convenient for cleaning accumulated dust. Multiple limiters 3 are provided with round holes 33. The limiter plate 21 and the limiter 3 are provided with positioning holes 34 at corresponding positions. The positioning pins 35 are slidably inserted into the positioning holes 34 to fix the rotation angle of the limiter 3. The limiter 3 of this photovoltaic panel mounting bracket features an innovative rotatable design. It rotates flexibly via a pivot 32 and a fixed bracket 2. In operation, the U-shaped opening faces upwards, and the inner elastic rubber protective pad 31 provides double protection through its anti-slip texture, cushioning vibrations and preventing panel slippage. When maintenance is required, it can be easily rotated 180° to the cleaning position, causing the U-shaped opening to face downwards. Accumulated dust automatically falls off along the circular hole 33. The positioning hole 34 and positioning pin 35 work together to ensure precise fixation of the rotation angle. The limiting circular plate 321 effectively prevents axial movement. This design, utilizing the elastic rubber material and anti-slip texture of the protective pad 31, significantly improves anti-slip capability. The rotational dust removal function enhances maintenance efficiency, eliminating the need to disassemble components. The cooperation between the positioning pin 35 and the circular hole 33 ensures accurate positioning in both the working and cleaning positions, greatly improving the reliability and ease of maintenance of the device. The overall structure is rust-proofed, making it particularly suitable for use in photovoltaic power plants with high dust levels, thus reducing operation and maintenance costs.

The purpose of the present invention has been fully and effectively achieved. The functions and structural principles of the present invention have been shown and explained in the embodiments.
