Smart support for solar water heater

Abstract

The invention discloses a smart support for a solar water heater. The smart support comprises a supporting mechanism, a telescopic mechanism, a shielding mechanism and a control structure. The supporting mechanism comprises a pair of oppositely-arranged supporting pieces. First supporting columns are provided with step-like sliding ways. The telescopic mechanism comprises a first telescopic piece and a right-square-bracket second telescopic piece, a third telescopic piece and a fourth telescopic piece, wherein the middle of the third telescopic piece and the middle of the fourth telescopic piece are connected in a sliding manner. The shielding mechanism comprises multiple semicircular bottom plates and arc collection plates. The control structure comprises a solar photovoltaic panel and a controller. The controller is set in the manner that when the temperature drop in a water tank exceeds 5 DEG C, the controller drives the two arc collection plates to rotate to the position above solar heat collecting tubes. By means of the smart support, the heat collecting tubes are protected under the severe weather as well as the low-temperature weather, and the solar utilization efficiency of solar energy is improved. The smart support has the beneficial effects of being simple in structure, low in production cost, high in bearing strength and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of solar energy, in particular to a solar intelligent bracket. Background technique [0002] With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, solar water heaters have gradually entered the homes of more and more people. The solar radiation passes through the outer tube of the vacuum tube, is absorbed by the heat-collecting coating, and then transfers to the water in the tube along the inner tube wall, and the temperature of the water in the tube rises after absorbing heat. Since solar water heaters are generally installed on roofs, etc., the requirements for solar supports are also constantly increasing. Most of the brackets of solar water heater manufacturers generally use triangular geometric brackets composed of front and rear legs. This structure is mainly suitable for installation on flat roofs, and the differences in the shape of solar water heaters from various manufacturers are small. Existing s...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

There are still many deficiencies in the existing triangular bracket structure solar water heaters on the market installed on sloping roofs. Solar water heaters only rely on heat collecting tubes to convert solar energy, and the utilization efficiency of solar energy needs to be improved.

In addition, the bracket of the solar water heater is installed outdoors, and the operating environment is harsh. In severe weather such as heavy rain, thunder, lightning, and hail, it may cause damage or rust to the heat collecting tube, so the heat collection efficiency of the solar water heater’s heat collecting tube cannot be maximized.
