Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic module support technology, and in particular to a photovoltaic module support that can be adjusted at multiple angles. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of photovoltaic (PV) power generation, the installation angle of PV modules has a crucial impact on power generation efficiency. Depending on the geographical location, season, and time of day, PV modules need to be positioned at the appropriate angle to maximize solar radiation reception. However, existing PV module mounting systems have significant shortcomings in angle adjustment. Most traditional mounting systems have a limited angle adjustment range, making it difficult to achieve flexible adjustment from 0 to 90°, thus failing to meet the optimal installation requirements of PV modules under various complex lighting conditions. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a photovoltaic module support that can be adjusted at multiple angles. It adopts a combination of rotating connection and sliding connection to achieve 0~90 degree adjustment between the support and the fixing parts. The structure is simple and the adjustment is convenient.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the solution of this utility model is: a photovoltaic module support that can be adjusted at multiple angles, including a support member, a fixing member and a telescopic sleeve that are pivotally connected to each other, the three of which form a triangular support structure, wherein the support member is used to mount the photovoltaic module; The first end of the telescopic sleeve is fixedly pivotally connected to the support member, and the last end of the telescopic sleeve is slidably connected to the fixed member through a slider. The slider slides along the length direction of the fixed member, causing the last end of the telescopic sleeve to slide. The sliding of the telescopic sleeve is coordinated with its shortening or lengthening, so that the support member is folded or unfolded at a 0~90 degree relative to the fixed member.

[0005] Furthermore, the fixing member has at least two fixed stops along the sliding path of the slider, with different fixed stops corresponding to different positions of the slider on the fixing member; and the telescopic sleeve has at least four length stops, with different length stops corresponding to different length states of the telescopic sleeve.

[0006] Furthermore, the multi-angle adjustable photovoltaic module bracket can freely cooperate with different fixed positions of the slider and different length positions of the telescopic sleeve to make the included angle between the support and the fixing part 0, 35, 45, 60, 75 or 90 degrees.

[0007] Furthermore, the fixed position includes a first fixed position and a second fixed position, with the first fixed position located at the tail end of the fixing member and the second fixed position located at the middle of the fixing member.

[0008] Furthermore, the slider has an adjustment hole, and the fixing member has a number of corresponding stop holes. The adjustment hole cooperates with different stop holes and is locked and unlocked by bolt and nut assembly.

[0009] Furthermore, the telescopic sleeve includes an inner tube and an outer tube that can slide relative to each other, and an elastic clamp is provided between the inner tube and the outer tube. The elastic clamp has a U-shaped elastic body and positioning protrusions located on both sides of the outside of the U-shaped elastic body. An installation hole is provided on the side wall of the inner tube, while several positioning holes are provided on the side wall of the outer tube. The elastic clip is pressed against the inner wall of the inner tube, and the positioning protrusion extends through the installation hole into the positioning hole of the outer tube to position the inner tube and the outer tube to each other.

[0010] Furthermore, the first end of the outer tube is fixedly pivotally connected to the support near the middle, the last end of the inner tube is slidably connected to the first end of the outer tube, and the last end of the inner tube is slidably connected to the fixing member through a slider.

[0011] Furthermore, the fixing member has a sliding groove with an opening facing the center of the triangular bracket structure. The sliding groove has several sliding rails extending along its length, and the slider is slidably mounted on the sliding rails.

[0012] Furthermore, the relative rotation paths of the support member, the fixing member, and the telescopic sleeve are located in the same plane. The support member has a storage groove with its opening facing the telescopic sleeve. When the support member is folded at 0 degrees relative to the fixing member, the telescopic sleeve is hidden in the storage groove.

[0013] Furthermore, the photovoltaic module support is composed of two or more sets of triangular support structures.

[0014] After adopting the above solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The multi-angle adjustable photovoltaic module support provided by this utility model mainly consists of a support member, a fixing member, and a telescopic sleeve that are pivotally connected to each other, forming a triangular support structure. The tail end of the telescopic sleeve is slidably connected to the fixing member via a slider. The slider slides along the length of the fixing member, causing the tail end of the telescopic sleeve to slide. The sliding of the telescopic sleeve, in conjunction with its shortening or lengthening, allows the support member to fold or unfold relative to the fixing member at an angle of 0 to 90 degrees. This solution uses a combination of rotating and sliding connections to achieve multi-angle adjustment of the bracket from 0 to 90 degrees. The structure is simple and the adjustment is convenient.

[0017] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0018] This utility model provides a photovoltaic module 7 support that can be adjusted at multiple angles, such as... Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the structure includes a pivotally connected support member 1, a fixing member 2, and a telescopic sleeve 3, which together form a triangular support structure. During use, the fixing member 2 is used to secure the structure to a base object such as the ground or a wall; the support member 1 is used to mount the photovoltaic module 7; and the telescopic sleeve 3 serves to adjust the angle, allowing for precise adjustment of the tilt angle of the photovoltaic module 7 by adjusting the angle of the support member 1. This design employs a combination of rotating and sliding connections to achieve multi-angle adjustment of the support from 0 to 90 degrees.

[0019] The first end of the telescopic sleeve 3 is fixedly pivotally connected to the support member 1, and the second end of the telescopic sleeve 3 is slidably connected to the fixing member 2 via a slider 23. The slider 23 slides along the length direction of the fixing member 2, causing the second end of the telescopic sleeve 3 to slide. During this process, the sliding of the second end of the telescopic sleeve 3, in conjunction with the shortening or lengthening of the telescopic structure, allows the support member 1 to fold or unfold relative to the fixing member 2 at an angle of 0 to 90 degrees, meeting the diverse tilt angle requirements of the photovoltaic module 7 in different scenarios.

[0020] A complete photovoltaic (PV) support system is typically constructed from two or more sets of triangular support structures arranged symmetrically or in a specific layout. This multi-set triangular support structure design effectively enhances the overall stability and load-bearing capacity of the PV support system, adapting to the installation requirements of PV modules in different scales and scenarios. This embodiment only shows the case of two sets, such as... Figure 1 As shown.

[0021] <Telescopic Sleeve 3> like Figure 2 As shown, the telescopic sleeve 3 structure includes an inner tube 31 and an outer tube 32 that can slide relative to each other. The tail end of the outer tube 32 is sleeved with the head end of the inner tube 31, and the two can slide relative to each other. In this embodiment, the head end of the outer tube 32 is fixedly pivotally connected to the support member 1 near the middle, that is, the two will not slide relative to each other, while the tail end of the inner tube 31 is slidably connected to the fixing member 2 through the slider 23.

[0022] like Figure 3 As shown, the inner tube 31 has a U-shaped cross-section, formed by three sides; the outer tube 32 has a C-shaped cross-section, formed by four sides, one of which has an opening. Compared to the U-shaped structure, the C-shaped structure has a greater degree of enclosure. This structural design ensures the telescopic function while also enhancing the overall stability and strength of the telescopic sleeve 3.

[0023] The telescopic sleeve 3 has at least four length positions, with different length positions corresponding to different length states of the telescopic sleeve 3. Figure 7 In the diagram, a, b, c, d, and e represent the first to fifth length settings, respectively. The adjustment and positioning of the length settings are primarily achieved through the elastic locking mechanism 33, as detailed below: Figure 3 As shown, the inner tube 31 has a mounting hole 311 on its side wall, while the outer tube 32 has a number of positioning holes 321 on its side wall. The elastic clip 33 has a U-shaped elastic body 331 and positioning protrusions 332 located on both sides of the outer side of the U-shaped elastic body 331. The elastic clip 33 is pressed against the inner wall of the inner tube 31, and the positioning protrusions 332 are pressed into the mounting hole 311 and the corresponding positioning hole 321 to position the inner tube 31 and the outer tube 32 relative to each other.

[0024] When the length of the telescopic sleeve 3 needs to be adjusted, an external force is applied to the positioning protrusion 332, causing it to move out of the positioning hole 321 and compress the U-shaped elastic body 331. At this time, the axial restraint between the inner and outer tubes 32 is lost, and the operator can freely pull the inner tube 31. During this pulling process, the positioning protrusion 332 is attached to the inner wall of the outer tube 32. When the inner tube 31 or the outer tube 32 moves to the desired position, aligning the mounting hole 311 with another positioning hole 321, the positioning protrusion 332 will be precisely embedded into the positioning hole 321 under the restoring force of the U-shaped elastic body 331, thereby achieving a new positioning and completing the adjustment of the length of the telescopic sleeve 3.

[0025] <Fastencil 2> The fixing component 2 is equipped with a slide rail 22 structure for sliding connection of other components of the bracket. Specifically, as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the fixing member 2 has a groove 21 with its opening facing the center of the triangular bracket structure. The groove 21 contains several slide rails 22 extending along its length. Here, there are two slide rails 22, symmetrically arranged on the two side walls of the groove 21. A slider 23 is mounted on each slide rail 22, and the slider 23 fits tightly with the slide rail 22, allowing it to slide smoothly along the slide rail 22. After the sliding structure is installed, the tail end of the inner tube 31 in the telescopic sleeve 3 is fixedly pivotally connected to the slider 23 located on the slide rail 22. Thus, under the action of external force, the telescopic sleeve 3 can slide along the slide rail 22.

[0026] The slider 23 is locked and unlocked on the fixing member 2 via the bolt and nut assembly 4. For example... Figure 4 As shown, the slider 23 has an adjustment hole 231, while the fixing member 2 has several stop holes 24 located at different positions along the sliding path of the slider 23. The positions of the different stop holes 24 are different fixed positions. When the slider 23 moves to the desired position, simply pass the bolt through the adjustment hole 231 and the corresponding stop hole 24 in sequence, and then tighten the nut to achieve precise positioning of the slider 23; when the position of the slider 23 needs to be adjusted, simply remove the bolt and nut assembly 4, move the slider 23 to the new position, and tighten the bolt and nut assembly 4 again to complete the new positioning.

[0027] Considering the different angle requirements of the photovoltaic module 7 in actual use, the fixing member 2 is provided with at least two fixing positions on the sliding path of the slider 23. The first fixing position is located at the tail end of the fixing member 2, as shown in the reference... Figure 6 The second fixed stop is located in the middle of the fixing member 2, for reference. Figure 7 These two fixed positions can meet the installation requirements of photovoltaic module 7 at some common angles.

[0028] The connection between support member 1 and fixing member 2 is the same as the connection between telescopic sleeve 3 and support member 1, that is, the first end of support member 1 is fixedly pivotally connected to another slider 23 on slide rail 22. Unlike telescopic sleeve 3, slider 23 connected to support member 1 is usually fixed to the first end of slide rail 22 and rarely used in sliding mode during use, which can ensure that support member 1 has a stable supporting function in most cases.

[0029] The preferred method for the fixed pivot connection described in this case is to utilize the fixed rotating shaft 6 to engage with the shaft hole 5 on the corresponding profile.

[0030] In summary, the photovoltaic module 7 bracket can freely cooperate with the different fixed positions of the slider 23 and the different length positions of the telescopic sleeve 3, so that the included angle between the support member 1 and the fixing member 2 can be flexibly adjusted to various angles such as 0, 35, 45, 60, 75, and 90 degrees, thereby fully meeting the angle requirements of the photovoltaic module 7 under different lighting conditions and usage scenarios, and improving the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic module 7.

[0031] 0-degree folded state (reference) Figure 5 ): Slide the slider 23 connecting the inner tube 31 of the telescopic sleeve 3 to the first fixed position B and lock it. At the same time, adjust the telescopic sleeve 3 to the first length position a and lock it. At this time, the support rod is adjusted to be in a 0-degree folded state with the fixing member 2, that is, the support rod and the fixing member 2 are tightly fitted.

[0032] The relative rotation paths of the support member 1, the fixing member 2, and the telescopic sleeve 3 are located in the same plane. The support member 1 has a storage groove 11 with its opening facing the telescopic sleeve 3. When the support member 1 is folded at 0 degrees relative to the fixing member 2, the telescopic sleeve 3 can be hidden in the storage groove 11. This not only makes the entire photovoltaic module 7 support frame look neater and more aesthetically pleasing in the folded state, but also effectively protects the telescopic sleeve 3 from external environmental corrosion and impact, extending its service life.

[0033] Intermediate unfolded state (reference) Figure 6 ): Slide the slider 23 connecting the inner tube 31 of the telescopic sleeve 3 to the first fixed position B or the second fixed position C. At the same time, adjust the telescopic sleeve 3 to a position between the first length position a and the fifth length position e, so that the support rod can be extended to 35, 45, 60, 75 degrees, etc.

[0034] 90-degree unfolded state (reference) Figure 7 ): Slide the slider 23 connecting the inner tube 31 of the telescopic sleeve 3 to the second fixed position C and lock it. At the same time, adjust the telescopic sleeve 3 to the fifth length position e so that the support rod is extended to 90 degrees.
