Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic tool technology, and in particular to a pole-mounted photovoltaic bracket for installing solar panels. Background Technology

[0002] Photovoltaic power generation, as a clean and efficient energy form, is widely used. Urban and rural areas possess abundant public pole resources, including utility poles, communication poles, streetlight poles, and surveillance poles. These poles are characterized by their wide distribution, stable structure, and suitable height; however, the space on their tops and sides has long been idle. If photovoltaic modules could be installed on these idle pole spaces, "one pole, multiple uses" could be achieved, eliminating the need for additional land and significantly reducing the site costs of distributed photovoltaics. To this end, various photovoltaic brackets have been designed for installation on these poles, such as the photovoltaic utility pole structure disclosed in Chinese utility model patent CN221767912U. However, existing such devices typically suffer from the following problems: firstly, the mounting rings are generally designed for poles of a specific diameter, resulting in a small adjustment range and poor adaptability to poles of different diameters; secondly, the tilt adjustment mechanisms are complex, requiring telescopic structures, making adjustment cumbersome, unstable, or sometimes unable to adjust the tilt angle at all. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a pole-mounted photovoltaic support system that features a simpler structure, more reasonable design, easier installation and operation, higher stability, and a wider range of adaptable pole diameters.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a pole-mounted photovoltaic support, comprising a set of multiple poles, several crossbeams and several longitudinal beams, which are locked to the pole body by inserting bolts through them, and each crossbeam is installed on the pole in a transverse direction; several connectors are fixed on the crossbeams, and several fixing holes are provided on the upper and lower edges of the connectors, and screws are inserted into any fixing hole and then into the screw holes of the longitudinal beams to achieve the installation and fixation of the longitudinal beams.

[0005] Furthermore, the main body of the connector is an L-shaped structure, with one side abutting against the side of the crossbeam and fixed to the crossbeam, and the other side abutting against the side of the longitudinal beam and fixed to the longitudinal beam. Several fixing holes are provided on both sides of the connector.

[0006] Furthermore, the connector is locked and fixed to the crossbeam by passing screws through the fixing holes on the connector that are attached to the crossbeam, and the longitudinal beam is locked and fixed to the connector by passing screws through the fixing holes on the connector that are attached to the longitudinal beam, with the longitudinal beam pressing on the crossbeam.

[0007] Furthermore, the fixing holes on both sides of the connector are arranged in an up-down structure, and at least one fixing hole on each side is a strip hole.

[0008] Furthermore, reinforcing plates are provided at both the upper and lower ends of the connector, and the reinforcing plates are connected to both sides of the connector to form an integral structure.

[0009] Furthermore, screw holes for fixing photovoltaic panels are provided on the longitudinal beam near both ends.

[0010] Furthermore, the support pole includes two poles, one in front and one in back, which are symmetrical and are locked to the pole body by bolts passing through the two poles; the crossbeam includes two beams, one in front and one in back, which are respectively locked to the two poles by screws.

[0011] Furthermore, the support rod includes several rib plates arranged laterally, with both ends of the rib plates connected to form an integral structure by connecting bones, and bolts passing through the connecting bones of the front and rear support rods to lock the two support rods.

[0012] Furthermore, a groove is provided in the middle of each clamping plate of the two poles, with the groove facing the pole body. Several locking teeth are provided on the clamping plate along the groove, and the pole contacts the surface of the pole body through the locking teeth.

[0013] Preferably, the support pole, crossbeam, longitudinal beam, and connecting parts are made of zinc alloy or aluminum alloy.

[0014] This invention utilizes a set of interlocking clamping rods to form an adjustable clamping structure, adaptable to rods with a wide range of diameter variations. It features fewer parts, good versatility, improved component adaptability, and reduced accessory types and inventory pressure. Furthermore, the angle of the photovoltaic panel can be adjusted simply by locking the longitudinal beams into different screw holes on the connectors, making operation convenient, simple, and practical. Additionally, the longitudinal beams can be pre-installed on the photovoltaic panels and then mounted on the crossbeams via connectors, further facilitating operation and improving installation efficiency.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] In this embodiment, refer to Figures 1-4 The pole-mounted photovoltaic support includes a set of multiple poles 2 (e.g., two poles), several crossbeams 3 (e.g., two crossbeams), and several longitudinal beams 4 (e.g., four beams, two on each side). The poles 2 are locked to the pole body 1 (e.g., utility poles, street light poles, etc.) by inserting bolts 6 through them. Each crossbeam 3 is installed on the pole 2, one in the front and one in the back. Several connectors 5 are fixed on the crossbeams 3, and the number of connectors 5 on each crossbeam 3 is the same as the number of longitudinal beams 4. Several fixing holes are provided on the connectors 5 along their vertical position. Screws 7 are inserted into any of the fixing holes and then into the screw holes of the longitudinal beams 4 to achieve the installation and fixation of the longitudinal beams 4.

[0021] The main body of the connector 5 is an L-shaped structure (similar to a corner bracket). One side of the connector is attached to the side of the crossbeam 3 and is fixed to the crossbeam 3, while the other side is attached to the side of the longitudinal beam 4 and is fixed to the longitudinal beam 4. Several fixing holes are provided on both sides of the connector 5.

[0022] By passing screw 7 through the fixing hole on the connector 5 that is attached to the crossbeam 3, the connector 5 is locked and fixed to the crossbeam 3. By passing screw 7 through the fixing hole on the connector 5 that is attached to the longitudinal beam 4, the longitudinal beam 4 is locked and fixed to the connector 5. The longitudinal beam 4 presses on the crossbeam 3 to improve the support capacity and stability.

[0023] The fixing holes on both sides of the connector 5 are arranged in a vertical structure, and at least one fixing hole on each side is a strip hole 52. In this embodiment, there are two vertical strip holes on top and one horizontal strip hole on the bottom. This allows for fine-tuning of the connection position through the strip holes 52 to achieve the optimal installation posture. By locking the longitudinal beam with fixing holes at different heights, the tilt angle of the photovoltaic panel 8 can be easily changed. Therefore, the structure for adjusting the tilt angle of the photovoltaic panel 8 is not only simple and effective, but also convenient to operate.

[0024] Reinforcing plates 51 are provided at the upper and lower ends of the connector 5, and the reinforcing plates 51 are connected to the two sides of the connector 5 as an integral structure, which can improve the structural strength of the connector 5.

[0025] Screw holes for fixing photovoltaic panels 8 are provided near both ends of the longitudinal beam 4, allowing the longitudinal beam to be pre-installed on the ground. This improves installation efficiency and reduces installation difficulty.

[0026] The support pole 2 includes two poles, one in front and one in back, which are symmetrical. Bolts 6 pass through the two support poles 2 and lock them to the pole body 1. This allows it to accommodate pole bodies 1 of different diameters within a wide range (e.g., Φ100mm-Φ300mm). The crossbeam 3 includes two beams, one in front and one in back, which are respectively locked to the two support poles 2 by screws.

[0027] The support rod 2 includes several clamping plates 21 arranged laterally. The two ends of the clamping plates 21 are connected into an integral structure by connecting bones 22. This can maintain a sufficiently high structural strength while reducing the weight of the support rod 2. Bolts 6 pass through the connecting bones 22 of the front and rear support rods 2 to lock the two support rods 2.

[0028] A groove 23 is provided in the middle of each clamping plate 21 of the two supporting rods 2, facing the rod body 1, so as to better fit with the rod body 1. Several locking teeth 24 are provided on the clamping plate 21 along the groove 23, and the supporting rod 2 contacts the surface of the rod body 1 through the locking teeth 24. This can increase the friction between the supporting rod 2 and the rod body 1, making the overall support more stable.

[0029] The pole 2, crossbeam 3, longitudinal beam 4 and connecting parts 5 are made of zinc alloy or aluminum alloy, which has good corrosion resistance, simpler overall structure design, fewer parts, high strength and good durability.

[0030] During installation, the longitudinal beams 4 can be pre-installed on both sides of the bottom surface of the photovoltaic panel 8 on the ground, and the connectors 5 can be pre-installed on the crossbeams 3. The mounting pole 2 is installed on the pole body 1 with bolts 6, and then the crossbeams 3 are tightened onto the mounting pole 2 with screws. Finally, the longitudinal beams are tightened onto the connectors 5 with screws 7 to complete the installation and fixing of the photovoltaic panel 8.

[0031] The present invention has been described in detail above. The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. All equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the scope of this application should still fall within the scope of the present invention.
