Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic module frame installation, and in particular to a structure for preventing deformation of the screw holes in the photovoltaic module frame during installation. Background Technology
[0002] As the size of solar cells and modules increases, the force that the screw holes on the frame must withstand also increases. As the demand for cost reduction continues to rise, the mounting hole surface on the frame is becoming thinner and thinner, with the distance from the hole to the edge reduced from 12mm to 9mm (hole diameter is 9mm) (the effective force-bearing area width at the edge is 4.5mm). The frame itself is under mechanical stress when the mounting holes are stamped. During installation, due to the 2-3mm wall thickness of the bracket, the area around the bolt holes in the frame concaves downwards during the pre-tightening process. This creates a cantilever beam cavity structure between the outer edge of the frame mounting hole and the inner area of the bracket mounting hole. When the bolts are tightened downwards, the suspended area of the frame hole deforms downwards. Assuming the contact surface of the frame is less than 0.8mm thick, the flat washer may also deform simultaneously. Furthermore, the frame will be under stress, increasing the risk of the frame holes being torn during gusts of wind, high wind pressure, or component swaying.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a structure to prevent deformation of the screw holes on the photovoltaic module frame during installation in order to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a structure that prevents deformation of the screw holes on the frame of photovoltaic modules during installation, which can effectively solve the problems in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A structure for preventing deformation of screw holes in the frame of a photovoltaic module includes a first filler, a second filler, and a bracket slat. The first filler is C-shaped, with fitting edges symmetrically installed on both sides of one end of the first filler, and external serrations symmetrically installed on both sides of the inner cavity of the first filler. One end of the second filler is provided with a reduction perforation, and the two sides of the second filler are symmetrically equipped with internal serrations. Reinforcing blocks are movably connected in the inner cavities of both the second filler and the first filler.
[0006] Preferably, the second filler has symmetrical upper and lower protruding limiting angles installed on both sides of one end, and a reduction through hole is provided at one end of the second filler for bolts to pass through.
[0007] Preferably, the first filler and the second filler have the same thickness, the hollow area size of the first filler is adapted to the second filler, the outer and inner serrations can engage with each other, and the outer and inner serrations are used to push inward together under mutual interaction to adjust the length of the engagement between the first filler and the second filler.
[0008] Preferably, the first filler and the second filler can engage downwards and horizontally.
[0009] Preferably, the first and second fillers are installed at the bracket purlin, where a frame is installed and a frame collapse area is formed. The first and second fillers are installed in the frame collapse area, and a gap is left between the first and second fillers and the frame collapse area after they are engaged. The gap is respectively the frame mounting hole and the bracket waist-shaped hole. The gap between the first and second fillers after they are engaged is used for the entry of bolts. The frame, bracket purlin, frame mounting hole and bracket waist-shaped hole are connected by bolts.
[0010] Preferably, a movable rod is installed at one end of the reinforcing block, a reset block is sleeved at the other end of the movable rod, a spring is wound around the outer wall of the movable rod, and one end of the spring is connected to the reset block.
[0011] Preferably, the movable rod, the reset block, and the spring are all movably connected in the inner cavities of the first filler and the second filler, and the other end of the spring is installed on the side of the inner cavity of the first filler and the second filler.
[0012] Preferably, a second adjusting component 19 is rotatably connected to the top of the inner cavity of the first filling member 1 and the second filling member 2. One end of the second adjusting component 19 is connected to a lead screw 9, and the other end of the reset block 11 is equipped with a movable cylinder 10. The lead screw 9 is threadedly connected to the inner cavity of the movable cylinder 10, and the movable cylinder 10 is movably connected to the inner cavity of the first filling member 1 and the second filling member 2.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a structure to prevent deformation of the screw holes in the frame of photovoltaic modules, which has the following beneficial effects: This structure, designed to prevent deformation of the screw holes in the photovoltaic module frame, significantly reduces the area of the mounting holes in the frame and decreases the displacement space of the screws through the combination of the first and second fillers. It can greatly reduce the original recessed area around the collapsed area of the frame, and even make the inner cavity of the filler smaller than the diameter of the frame hole, resulting in no recess or reduced risk. This achieves flat installation of the frame bolt holes, with no bending stress during installation, and greatly reduces the risks associated with installation. Attached Figure Description

[0016] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0017] Example 1: like Figures 1-8As shown, a structure for preventing deformation of screw holes in a photovoltaic module frame includes a first filler 1, a second filler 2, and a bracket shank 15. The first filler 1 is C-shaped, with symmetrical fitting edges 3 installed on both sides of one end. External serrations 18 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the inner cavity of the first filler 1. A reduction perforation 6 is opened at one end of the second filler 2, and internal serrations 4 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the second filler 2. Reinforcing blocks 8 are movably connected to the inner cavities of both the second filler 2 and the first filler 1. Vertically protruding limiting angles 5 are symmetrically installed on both sides of one end of the second filler 2. A... There is a reduced-size perforation 6 for bolt drilling. The first filler 1 and the second filler 2 have the same thickness. The hollow area size of the first filler 1 is adapted to the second filler 2. The outer serration 18 and the inner serration 4 can engage with each other. The outer serration 18 and the inner serration 4 are used to push inward together under mutual interaction to adjust the length of the engagement between the first filler 1 and the second filler 2. The first filler 1 and the second filler 2 can engage downwards and left and right. The first filler 1 and the second filler 2 are used to be installed at the bracket slat 15. A frame 14 is installed at the bracket slat 15. Fifteen frame collapse areas 20 are provided. The first filler 1 and the second filler 2 are installed in the frame collapse areas 20. After the first filler 1 and the second filler 2 are engaged, there are gaps between them and the frame collapse areas 20. These gaps are respectively the frame mounting hole 16 and the bracket waist-shaped hole 17. The gaps between the first filler 1 and the second filler 2 after engagement are used for bolt entry. The frame 14, the bracket purlin 15, the frame mounting hole 16 and the bracket waist-shaped hole 17 are connected by bolts. One end of the reinforcing block 8 is equipped with a movable rod 12, and the other end of the movable rod 12 is fitted with a reset block 11. The outer wall of the movable rod 12 is wound with a spring 13. One end of the spring 13 is connected to the reset block 11. The movable rod 12, the reset block 11, and the spring 13 are all movably connected in the inner cavities of the first filler 1 and the second filler 2. The other end of the spring 13 is installed on the side of the inner cavity of the first filler 1 and the second filler 2. The top of the inner cavity of the first filler 1 and the second filler 2 is rotatably connected to the second adjusting assembly 19. One end of the second adjusting assembly 19 is connected to the lead screw 9. The other end of the reset block 11 is installed with the movable cylinder 10. The lead screw 9 is threaded in the inner cavity of the movable cylinder 10. The movable cylinder 10 is movably connected in the inner cavities of the first filler 1 and the second filler 2.
[0018] Example 2: like Figure 2As shown, the first filler 1 is C-shaped in general. There is a row of serrated triangular structures forming the outer serrations 18 on the inner side of the upper and lower wings, and a semi-circular fitting edge 3 on the side. According to the mounting hole requirements of the bracket slats 15 and the general thickness standard of the bracket, the thickness of the first filler 1 is in the range of 2.0mm-3.5mm, which is the same as the thickness of the bracket slats 15 that directly contacts the frame 14. The surface size of the first filler 1 is in the range of 8.9mm-11.9mm, which is smaller than the collapsed area 20 of the frame. like Figure 3 As shown, the second filler 2 is basically the opposite of the first filler 1. A row of horizontal sawtooth-shaped triangular structures with inner sawtooth 4 is designed on the outer side of the upper and lower wings. There is a pair of upper and lower protruding limiting angles 5 on the left side. The shortest distance between the upper and lower limiting angles 5 is 5-7mm, generally <8mm, which is the outer diameter of the bolt. The internal opening formed by the reduced perforation 6 is the area for the bolt to be perforated later. It further reduces the empty space around the bolt. like Figure 1 As shown, the first filler 1 and the second filler 2 have the same thickness. When the first filler 1 and the second filler 2 are combined, the outer serration 18 of the first filler 1 engages with the inner serration 4 of the second filler 2. The two interact and push inward together. The length of the interlocking between the first filler 1 and the second filler 2 is adjusted according to the length of the collapsed area 20 of the border, or as shown in the figure. Figure 4 As shown, based on the length of the collapsed area 20 of the border, the first filler 1 and the second filler 2 are directly inserted vertically, and the length is subsequently adjusted according to the collapsed area 20 of the border. Figure 5 As shown, at this time, the first filler 1 and the second filler 2 can only have gap displacement and cannot continue to shorten the distance.
[0019] Example 3: like Figures 1-8 As shown, first, align the mounting holes of frame 14 with the collapsed area 20 of the frame, forming a cross-shaped combination of upper and lower holes. Place a flat washer on the upper contact surface of the mounting holes of frame 14 to increase the contact area, reduce the force on the mounting holes of frame 14, and reduce the direct force of the high-hardness bolt on the low-hardness frame. Pass through the bolt, and from the bottom up through the bolt thread, place the combination of the first filler 1 and the second filler 2 according to the collapsed area 20 of the frame, which greatly reduces the area of the mounting holes of frame 14 and reduces the displacement space of the bolt. Finally, place the flat washer, spring washer, and nut to pre-tighten the whole set of fasteners. During the bolt pre-tightening process, due to the presence of the first filler 1 and the second filler 2, the original recessed area around the collapsed area 20 of the frame is greatly reduced, and even the inner cavity of the filler is smaller than the diameter of the frame hole, resulting in no recess or reduced risk, achieving flat installation of the frame bolt holes, no bending stress during installation, and greatly reducing the risk of installation. When the spring 13 is in its normal state, it can push the reinforcing block 8 outward. When in use, the second adjustment component 19 can be rotated so that the lead screw 9 can be threadedly connected to the movable cylinder 10. Based on this, the reinforcing block 8 can be moved by the reset block 11 and the movable rod 12, so that the reinforcing block 8 can extend to the outside of the first filler 1 and the second filler 2 and fit against the outer wall of the bolt, which can further improve the fastening effect.
