A PV module frame, includes a module recess, a sidewall vertical to the module recess and a bottom portion vertical to the sidewall. The bottom portion extends from the bottom of the sidewall along the opposite direction of the recess of the module recess. A PV module having the PV module frame and a PV module installation system for installing the PV module onto a support, wherein the bottom portions of the adjacent solar cell assemblies are socket jointed and fixed to at least one installation beam which is fixed to the support. The beneficial effect of the present invention is that: fast installation of a PV module could be realized only by using the improved frame and one installation beam, Which reduces the quantity of the members in an installation system module and makes the installation more efficient, easier and more economical.

1. A PV module frame for fast installing a PV module, comprising: a module recess;a sidewall vertical to the module recess;a bottom portion perpendicular to the sidewall, wherein said bottom portion extending from the bottom of said sidewall along an opposite direction of an opening of said module recess, and an alignment hole for a power cord is opened on said sidewall; anda side portion extending upwards from a free end of the bottom portion along a direction vertical to the bottom portion, wherein an alignment slot corresponding to the alignment hole is opened on the side portion. 2. The PV module frame according to claim 1, wherein said sidewall is of cavity structure. 3. The PV module frame according to claim 2, wherein a reinforcement plate for strengthening a bending strength of the sidewall is provided within said cavity structure. 4. The PV module frame according to claim 1, wherein a recess for the power cord is provided on said alignment hole. 5. The PV module frame according to claim 1, wherein a height of said side portion is less than or equal to a height of said sidewall. 6. The PV module frame according to claim 1, wherein recesses for the power cord are provided on said alignment hole and said alignment slot, respectively. 7. A PV module, comprising: a plurality of solar cells and frames, said frame comprising a module recess; anda sidewall vertical to the module recess and a bottom portion perpendicular to the sidewall, wherein the bottom portion of said frames of said PV module extending from a bottom of the respective sidewall along an opposite direction of an opening of said module recess, and the bottom portion of one frame defining an outmost face adapted to positionally abut against the sidewall of the adjacent frame, wherein an alignment hole for a power cord is opened on said sidewall and wherein a recess for the power cord is provided on said alignment hole. 8. The PV module frame according to claim 7, wherein the sidewalls are of cavity structure in which a reinforcement plate for strengthening bending strength of the sidewall is provided. 9. The PV module according to claim 7, wherein the width of the bottom portion of the frame is greater than that of the bottom portion of the adjacent frame. 10. The PV module according to claim 7, wherein the frames include a side portion extending upwards from a free end of the bottom portion along a direction vertical to the bottom portion, and furthermore, a width of the bottom portion of the frame is greater than that of the bottom portion of the adjacent frame so that the frame with a smaller width could be socket jointed to that with a greater width. 11. The PV module according to claim 10, wherein an alignment slot corresponding to the alignment hole is opened on said side portion. 12. The PV module according to claim 11, wherein recesses for the power cord are provided on said alignment hole and said alignment slot. 13. A PV module installation system for fast installing a PV module, comprising: a PV module, comprising:a plurality of solar cells and frames, said frame comprising a module recess; anda sidewall vertical to the module recess and a bottom portion perpendicular to the sidewall;wherein the bottom portion of said frames of said PV module extending from a bottom of the respective sidewall along an opposite direction of an opening of said module recess, and the bottom portion of one frame defining an outmost face adapted to positionally abut against the sidewall of the adjacent frame;wherein the sidewalls of said frames are of cavity structure in which a reinforcement plate for strengthening bending strength of the sidewall is provided;wherein an alignment hole for a power cord is opened on said sidewall and a recess for the power cord is provided on said alignment hole;wherein the width of the bottom portion of the frame of said one side is greater than that of the bottom portion of the adjacent frame; andwherein the PV module is on a support, and bottom portions of adjacent solar cell assemblies are socket jointed and fixed to at least one installation beam which is fixed to said support. 14. The PV module installation system according to claim 13, wherein at least one of frames of adjacent sides of said adjacent solar cell assemblies includes a side portion. 15. The PV module installation system according to claim 13, wherein said installation beam and said bottom portion are fixed by a fastener.
