1. A detachable geothermal in-situ thermovoltaic power generation module, comprising:
a heat pipe, with a cross section set as a regular polygon structure;
a plurality of thermovoltaic power generation units, sleeved on the heat pipe at intervals and arranged in series;
wherein each of the thermovoltaic power generation units comprises a plurality of thermovoltaic power generation modules, and a number of the plurality of thermovoltaic power generation units corresponds to a number of sides of the heat pipe;
each of the thermovoltaic power generation modules comprises:
a housing, arranged at one side of the heat pipe, and a side of the housing facing the heat pipe is an open end;
an electric heating block, arranged at one side of an inner cavity of the housing far from the open end and used as a local heat source;
a framework, connected with an outer wall of the open end of the housing;
thermovoltaic power generation sheets, arranged at one side of the inner cavity of the housing close to the open end, and the thermovoltaic power generation sheets are located between the framework and the electric heating block; and
two hoops, respectively connected with two ends of the housing, and the hoops are sleeved on the heat pipe, and cross sections of the hoops are arranged in regular polygon structures and corresponding to an outer wall of the heat pipe, wherein a relative distance between the two hoops is adjusted according to a length of the housing;
wherein each of the hoops comprises:
two half-hoops, combined to form the hoop, two ends of each of the half-hoops are respectively provided with matched clamping grooves and clamping blocks, the clamping grooves and the clamping blocks are tenoned, and holes used for connecting by bolts are formed on the clamping grooves and the clamping blocks; and
wherein a groove is formed in a middle of any side of each of the half-hoops, and both ends of an outer wall of each of the half-hoops located at both sides of the groove are respectively provided with threaded holes.
