Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic power generation application technology, and in particular to a snow-blocking and water-guiding clip for photovoltaic modules. Background Technology

[0002] Photovoltaic power generation, as a clean and green energy source, has been widely used in industrial, commercial, and residential applications in recent years. During the construction and installation of photovoltaic power stations, factors such as the orientation of the photovoltaic modules to the sun, the slope angle, drainage, and snowfall must be considered. Therefore, snow-blocking clamps need to be installed on the outside of the drainage slope frame of the photovoltaic modules. However, when conventional snow-blocking clamps are fixed to the frame of the photovoltaic modules, the overall structure is relatively complex, requiring multiple adjustments and making construction inconvenient. At the same time, snow-blocking clamps generally focus on the purpose of blocking snow and pay less attention to the problem of snow melting and drainage, which easily leads to a certain amount of water accumulation at the lower end of the snow-blocking clamp. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A snow-blocking and water-guiding clamp for photovoltaic modules, comprising a first fixing clamp and a second fixing clamp, characterized in that: the first fixing clamp and the second fixing clamp are fixedly connected by fixing bolts, the fixing bolts respectively pass through the first fixing through hole on the first fixing clamp and the second fixing through hole on the second fixing clamp, a second fixing clamp protrusion is provided at the upper middle part of one side of the second fixing clamp, a fixing slot is provided on one side of the first fixing through hole, and the second fixing clamp protrusion is inserted into the fixing slot, so that the first fixing clamp and the second fixing clamp are fixed. Using this technical solution, during the fixed connection process between the first and second fixing clamps, it is only necessary to first insert the second fixing clamp protrusion on one side of the second fixing clamp into the fixing slot, then pass the fixing bolt through the first fixing through hole and the second fixing through hole, install the fixing nut at the bottom of the fixing bolt, and tighten the fixing bolt to achieve a fixed connection between the first and second fixing clamps. It should be noted that the travel height between the first and second fixing clamps is affected by the vertical thickness between the photovoltaic module frame and the bottom surface of the photovoltaic module.

[0004] Optionally, a snow baffle is provided on one side of the first fixing clamp, and snow-blocking protrusions are provided on both sides of the snow baffle, with the snow-blocking protrusions protruding outward from the snow baffle. This technical solution takes into account that the entire surface of the photovoltaic module is a relatively smooth plane. In snowy weather, snow accumulates on the surface of the photovoltaic module and, due to gravity and the tilt angle of the photovoltaic module, the snow will slide along the photovoltaic module. To enable the snow baffle to better block snowdrifts, the snow-blocking protrusions are set to form an interlocking pattern with the snow baffle, enhancing the overall blocking ability of the snow baffle against snowdrifts.

[0005] Optionally, a first auxiliary pressure block is provided at each of the horizontal ends of the first fixed through hole. A water guiding groove is provided on the upper side inside the first auxiliary pressure block, and a first abutment block is provided on the side of the water guiding groove away from the first fixed through hole. Rainwater on the surface of the photovoltaic module is quickly collected into the water guiding groove and guided out through it.

[0006] Optionally, a second abutting block is provided on one side of the first fixing through hole, and the second abutting block abuts against the photovoltaic module on its horizontal side. A photovoltaic module frame is provided on the upper part of the photovoltaic module, and the photovoltaic module frame protrudes from the upper surface of the photovoltaic module. The first abutting block abuts against the upper surface of the photovoltaic module.

[0007] Optionally, a limiting block is provided on one side inside the first abutting block. The limiting block abuts against one side of the photovoltaic module frame to assist in limiting the overall horizontal movement of the photovoltaic module. Using this technical solution, during the process of fixing and limiting the outer edge of the photovoltaic module frame, the limiting block effectively constrains and limits the entire photovoltaic module in the horizontal direction using the first and second fixing clamps. No complicated adjustments are required; simply bring the limiting block close to and abuts against one side of the photovoltaic module frame in the horizontal direction.

[0008] Optionally, the horizontal length of the first abutment block is greater than the horizontal length of the second abutment block.

[0009] Optionally, the first fixing clamp 1 has multiple first limiting anti-slip strips on its bottom inner side, and the second fixing clamp has multiple second limiting anti-slip strips on the side away from the second fixing through hole. Each of the two ends of the second limiting anti-slip strip has a connecting through groove to isolate it. Using this technical solution, when the photovoltaic module is fixed as a whole by the first and second fixing clamps, the first limiting anti-slip strips are in close contact with the upper surface of the photovoltaic module frame, and the second limiting anti-slip strips are in close contact with the lower surface of the photovoltaic module. Through the action of the respective anti-slip strips, the horizontal fixing constraint capability of the first and second fixing clamps on the photovoltaic module in the horizontal direction is enhanced.

[0010] Optionally, the horizontal coverage length of the second limiting anti-slip strip is greater than the horizontal coverage length of the first limiting anti-slip strip.

[0011] Optionally, both the first and second fixing fixtures are integrally formed using a metal stamping process.

[0012] Optionally, the first fixing clamp is designed to be symmetrically distributed about the diameter extension line of the first fixing through hole in the horizontal direction.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0014] In this utility model, 1. Firstly, the device integrates snow blocking and water guiding functions. A snow blocking plate is set on the upper part of the first fixing clamp, and water guiding grooves are set at both ends on the lower side of the first fixing clamp, so that rainwater flowing over the surface of the photovoltaic module can be quickly discharged through the water guiding grooves.

[0015] 2. A limit stop is provided on the lower inner side of the first fixed clamp to limit the horizontal movement of the photovoltaic module. Furthermore, a first limit anti-slip strip and a second limit anti-slip strip are respectively provided on the first fixed clamp and the second fixed clamp to effectively constrain and limit the horizontal movement of the photovoltaic module.

[0016] 3. The first fixing clamp and the second fixing clamp are fixed together by fixing bolts through the first fixing through hole and the second fixing through hole. It should also be noted that the protrusion of the second fixing clamp and the fixing slot can be quickly inserted and matched, which makes the overall installation process of the first fixing clamp and the second fixing clamp simple, convenient and easy to operate, without the need for complicated adjustments.
