[0029] Two baffle mechanisms 4 are arranged on both sides of the solar panel body 2, and the baffle mechanism 4 includes a first movable plate 42 and a second movable plate 43. The first movable plate 42 and the second movable plate 43 are hinged to form a baffle 41, and the second movable plate 43 is provided with a cleaning component 5 for cleaning the solar panel body 2. The two baffle mechanisms 4 can be driven by the driving mechanism 3 to a first state, a second state, or a third state. When the baffle mechanism 4 is in the first state, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the two baffles 41 are located on both sides of the solar panel body 2 and do not block the surface of the solar panel body 2. To prevent the sides from blocking and absorbing sunlight, the first movable plate 42 and the second movable plate 43 are made of transparent material.

[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, when the baffle mechanism 4 is in the second state, the two second movable plates 43 move synchronously away from or towards each other, and the cleaning assembly 5 on the second movable plates 43 always faces the solar panel body 2 to clean the solar panel body 2 reciprocatingly.

[0031] like Figure 5 As shown, when the baffle mechanism 4 is in the third state, the first movable plate 42 and the second movable plate 43 are arranged above the solar panel body 2 horizontally relative to the plane of the solar panel body 2, the two second movable plates 43 are in conflict with each other, and the two baffles 41 can cover the surface of the solar panel body 2 to prevent long-term rain, snow and hail from damaging the surface of the solar panel.

[0032] The driving mechanism 3 includes a transmission belt mechanism 31; the transmission belt mechanism 31 includes a transmission belt 311, a driving wheel 312 and a driven wheel 313, the driving wheel 312 and the driven wheel 313 are rotatably arranged on the bracket 1 and at both sides of one end of the solar panel body 2, and the driving wheel 312 and the driven wheel 313 are connected through the transmission belt 311;

[0033] The two second movable plates 43 are connected to the two side belt portions of the transmission belt 311 through the first connecting member 32 and the second connecting member 33 respectively, so that the two second movable plates 43 move synchronously toward or away from each other during the operation of the transmission belt mechanism 31 .

[0034] The driving mechanism 3 further includes a U-shaped frame 34; the U-shaped frame 34 opens toward the bracket 1, and the U-shaped frame 34 is installed between the driving belt mechanism 31 and the solar panel body 2;

[0035] The first connecting member 32 includes a first sliding sleeve 321 and a first connecting rod 322, and the second connecting member 33 includes a second sliding sleeve 331 and a second connecting rod 332. The first sliding sleeve 321 and the second sliding sleeve 331 are respectively sleeved on the U-shaped frame 34 and can move along the U-shaped frame 34. A second movable plate 43 is rotatably connected to one end of the first sliding sleeve 321, one end of the first connecting rod 322 is connected to the other end of the first sliding sleeve 321, and the other end is connected to a belt portion on one side of the transmission belt 311, and another second movable plate 43 is rotatably connected to one end of the second sliding sleeve 331, one end of the second connecting rod 332 is connected to the other end of the second sliding sleeve 331, and the other end is connected to a belt portion on the other side of the transmission belt 311;

[0036] The first movable plate 42 is rotatably connected to the bracket 1 at one side away from the second movable plate 43 . Connecting plates 36 are provided on both sides of the first movable plate 42 . Support plates 37 are provided at corresponding positions of the bracket 1 . The connecting plates 36 on the first movable plate 42 are rotatably connected to the corresponding support plates 37 .

[0037] The cleaning assembly 5 includes a nozzle 51, a water tank 52 and two connecting hoses 53;

[0038] A cavity (not shown) is provided inside the second movable plate 43 on a side away from the corresponding first movable plate 42; Figure 6 As shown, the end surfaces of the two second movable plates 43 that are in conflict with each other are each provided with a groove 432, and nozzles 51 connected to the corresponding cavities are evenly provided at the grooves 432 (the grooves 432 are provided to prevent the nozzles 51 on the two second movable plates 43 from interfering with each other when the baffle mechanism 4 is in the third state), and a water inlet 431 connected to the cavity is provided on the second movable plate 43.

[0039] The water tank 52 is installed on the bracket 1. One end of the two connecting hoses 53 is connected to the water tank 52 through the water pump, and the other end is connected to the water inlet 431 of the corresponding second movable plate 43. When the water pump is turned on, the water in the water tank 52 enters the cavity in the corresponding second movable plate 43 through the two connecting hoses 53, and is then sprayed out through each nozzle 51.

[0040] A motor 35 is provided below the bracket 1 ; the driving wheel 312 is driven by the motor 35 and is rotationally connected to the bracket 1 .

[0041] The solar panel also includes a timer and a controller; the timer and the motor 35 are both electrically connected to the controller. After a certain period of time, the timer controls the motor 35 to start through the controller, and the solar panel body 2 is self-cleaned regularly. The motor 35 adopts a stepper motor, and the controller controls the stepper motor 35 to rotate alternately in the forward direction and the reverse direction, so that the transmission belt 311 rotates counterclockwise or clockwise, so that the two second moving plates 43 move away from or towards each other, and then each nozzle 51 sprays the solar panel body 2 back and forth. When extreme weather such as rain, snow, and hail occurs, the controller connected to the external network receives a signal and controls the motor 35 to start, so that the baffle mechanism 4 is in the third state to protect the solar panel body 2.

[0042] like Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, the working principle and process of the present invention are as follows:

[0043] The motor 35 is started, the driving wheel 312 rotates, and the driven wheel 313 rotates through the transmission belt 311, and the first connecting rod 322 and the second connecting rod 332 on the transmission belt 311 move toward or away from each other, so that the first sliding sleeve 321 and the second sliding sleeve 331 move toward or away from each other on the U-shaped frame 34. When rain, snow, hail or other extreme weather occurs, the controller connected to the external network receives a signal, controls the motor 35 to start, and adjusts the baffle mechanism 4 to be in the third state, such as Figure 5 As shown, the first sliding sleeve 321 and the second sliding sleeve 331 are in conflict with each other, the first movable plate 42 and the second movable plate 43 are both in a horizontal state relative to the plane of the solar panel body 2, the two second movable plates 43 are in conflict with each other, and the two baffles 41 cover the solar panel body 2, which can protect the solar panel body 2.

[0044] After a certain time, the timer controls the motor 35 to start through the controller, and starts to clean the solar panel body 2: Figure 4 As shown, the first sleeve 321 and the second sleeve 331 start to move away from each other, driving the corresponding second movable plate 43 to rotate around the corresponding first sleeve 321 or the second sleeve 331, and then driving the corresponding connecting plate 36 on the first movable plate 42 to rotate around the supporting plate 37 on the bracket 1. The smaller the angle between the first movable plate 42 and the second movable plate 43 is (the angle is 180° in the third state), the water pump is turned on at the same time, and the water in the water tank 52 enters the cavity of the corresponding second movable plate 43 through the two connecting hoses 53, and the surface of the solar panel is washed through the corresponding nozzles 51 (although the nozzles 51 on the second movable plate 43 are not perpendicular to the solar panel body 2, during the movement, although the nozzles 51 rotate with the second movable plate 43, the nozzles 51 are always facing the solar panel body 2), until the nozzles 51 on the two second movable plates 43 are located on both sides outside the solar panel body 2, at this time, the baffle 41 no longer blocks the solar panel body 2, and the solar panel body 2 is completely exposed, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the solar panel is in a state of receiving solar energy on a daily basis, and the above-mentioned actions are repeated so that each nozzle 51 sprays back and forth on the solar panel body 2 .

[0045] It should be noted that, although the above embodiments have been described in this article, the patent protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereby. Therefore, based on the innovative concept of the present invention, changes and modifications made to the embodiments described herein, or equivalent structures or equivalent process changes made using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings, directly or indirectly applying the above technical solutions to other related technical fields, are all included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
