Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of solar power generation equipment technology, and in particular to a self-maintaining solar power generation equipment. Background Technology
[0002] With economic development and social progress, people are placing increasingly higher demands on energy, making the search for new energy sources an urgent issue facing humanity. Solar energy originates from celestial bodies outside the Earth, primarily solar energy itself. It is the enormous energy released by the fusion of hydrogen nuclei in the sun at extremely high temperatures. In the 21st century, solar energy will become one of the world's major energy sources, representing the most fundamental energy source. The vast majority of the energy needed by humanity comes directly or indirectly from the sun. Solar power generation includes solar photovoltaic power generation and solar thermal power generation. Solar power generation has many advantages, such as requiring no fuel, which significantly reduces operating costs.
[0003] Existing solar panels are exposed to the elements year-round, and over time, a large amount of dust accumulates on their surfaces. Due to the changing seasons, there will be rain and snow. Heavy rainfall may affect the performance of solar panels, while snow will accumulate on them, preventing them from generating photovoltaic power quickly when the weather clears up.
[0004] Chinese invention patent CN112821860B discloses a self-cleaning solar panel, including a water storage base with a fixed support on it. A control cabinet is fixedly installed on the outside of the fixed support, and a rotating shaft is connected to the inside. One end of the rotating shaft is connected to the solar panel, and the other end is connected to a rotating connecting seat. A lifting device is fixedly installed on the rotating connecting seat. A cleaning mechanism is provided below the solar panel and is fixedly connected to the water storage base via a telescopic device. This prior art can prevent damage to the solar panel due to temperature differences without affecting its operation, and can also clean the solar panel to avoid excessive dust accumulation. However, this prior art is not thorough enough in cleaning the solar panel, easily causing dust to accumulate in corners. Furthermore, this prior art cannot prevent damage to the solar panel caused by severe weather. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. The illustrative embodiments and descriptions herein are used to explain the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, an adjusting motor 102 is fixedly installed on the base 1, and a connecting plate 103 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the adjusting motor 102. The mounting base 2 is slidably connected to the connecting plate 103. A support cylinder 101 is fixedly installed on the base 1. A ball bearing 104 is provided on the push rod of the support cylinder 101. The ball bearing 104 contacts the bottom of the mounting base 2 to support the mounting base 2 and reduce friction.
[0024] Protective shells 4 are rotatably mounted on both sides of the mounting base 2. A protective shell motor 401 is fixedly installed on the mounting base 2 to drive the protective shells 4 to rotate. An adjustment component 3 is movably installed on the mounting base 2. The adjustment component 3 is equipped with two washing components 5 for washing the photovoltaic panels and a spraying component 6 for spraying cleaning water.
[0025] like Figure 3 As shown, the adjusting seat 304 is rotatably mounted on the mounting base 2. A lead screw 302 is rotatably mounted on the mounting base 2. A motor 301 for driving the lead screw 302 to rotate is provided on the mounting base 2. A slide rod 305 is slidably mounted on the mounting base 2. The slide rod 305 and the lead screw 302 form a helical pair. A connecting rod 303 is rotatably mounted on the slide rod 305. One end of the connecting rod 303 is rotatably connected to the adjusting seat 304. The angle of the photovoltaic panel is adjusted by changing the angle of the adjusting seat 304.
[0026] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the spraying component 6 includes a transmission box 614 fixedly mounted on the mounting base 2, with a transmission pipe 615 mounted on the transmission box 614; a connecting box 612 fixedly mounted on the adjusting base 304, with one end of the transmission pipe 615 connected to the connecting box 612; a flow regulating valve 608 mounted on the connecting box 612 for regulating the water flow; a nozzle 613 rotatably mounted on the adjusting base 304, with a driven gear 611 fixedly mounted on the nozzle 613, and one end of the nozzle 613 connected to the connecting box 612; a spraying motor 610 fixedly mounted on the adjusting base 304, with a drive gear 609 fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the spraying motor 610, the drive gear 609 meshing with the driven gear 611. The spraying component 6 also includes a belt structure one and a belt structure two. Belt structure one includes pulley one 601 and pulley two 603, which are connected by belt one 602. Belt one 602 is provided with a groove. Belt structure two includes pulley three 605 and pulley four 607, which are connected by belt two 606. Pulley three 605 and pulley two 603 are connected by the two ends of a connecting shaft 604 to enable belt structure one and belt structure two to move together. Pulley four 607 is connected to a flow regulating valve 608. When belt structure two is driven, pulley four 607 drives the flow regulating valve 608 to regulate the water flow.
[0027] like Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, two washing components 5 are mounted on the adjusting seat 304. Each washing component 5 includes two washing slides 506 slidably mounted on the adjusting seat 304. One of the washing slides 506 has a support rod 505, which engages with a groove on the belt 602. A lead screw 503 is rotatably mounted on the adjusting seat 304. A motor 502 for driving the lead screw 503 is fixedly mounted on the adjusting seat 304. The washing slide 506 and the lead screw 503 form a helical pair. A washing rod 501 is rotatably mounted on the washing slide 506, and a mechanism for driving the washing rod 501 is fixedly mounted on the washing slide 506. Motor 3 504; A cam motor 507 is fixedly installed inside the brush rod 501, and a cam 508 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the cam motor 507; Several brush heads 510 for washing are rotatably arranged inside the brush rod 501, and a brush gear 511 is fixedly connected to one end of each brush head 510. A rack 509 that meshes with the brush gear 511 is slidably installed inside the brush rod 501. When the cam 508 rotates, it drives the rack 509 to slide. Through the reciprocating motion of the rack 509, the several brush heads 510 are driven to rotate; A spring 512 for providing elastic force is provided between one end of the rack 509 and the brush rod 501.
[0028] The working principle of this invention is as follows: Initially, the two protective shells 4 are spliced together, with the photovoltaic panel located inside, providing protection for the photovoltaic panel in severe weather. During use, the protective shell motor 401 drives the protective shell 4 to open, exposing the photovoltaic panel. The motor 301 drives the lead screw 302 to rotate, causing the slide bar 305 to slide. Under the connection of the connecting rod 303, the adjusting seat 304 swings to adjust the angle and orientation of the photovoltaic panel. At the same time, the mounting base 2 can also be lifted by the support cylinder 101, so that the mounting base 2 is off the ground by a preset distance. Then, the motor 102 drives the mounting base 2 to rotate at an angle to adjust the angle of the photovoltaic panel. The ball bearing 104 can reduce the friction when the mounting base 2 rotates.
[0029] When not being cleaned, the two brushing components 5 are offset from the photovoltaic panel. When cleaning is required, motor 3 504 drives the brush rod 501 to rotate, causing the brush rod 501 to deflect to the position of the photovoltaic panel. Motor 2 502 drives lead screw 2 503, causing the brush slide 506 to slide, thereby moving the brush rod 501. The cam motor 507 inside the brush rod 501 drives the cam 508. The rack 509 slides under the action of the cam 508, and under the elastic force of the spring 512, the rack 509 slides. 9. The system reciprocates, and under the meshing action of the gears and racks, several washing gears 511 and washing heads 510 rotate, with the washing heads 510 cleaning the surface of the photovoltaic panel. It should also be noted that in this embodiment, one of the washing slides 506 is equipped with a support rod 505, and the belt 602 is equipped with a slot. The support rod 505 engages with the slot, driving the belt 602 to move when the washing slide 506 moves. Under the linkage of belt structure one and belt structure two, the pulley 607 rotates. The pulley 607 rotates, carrying the flow regulating valve 608; the transmission box 614 provides clean water for the washing operation and transports the clean water to the connecting box 612 through the transmission pipe 615; the flow regulating valve 608 rotates to adjust the water flow rate; the clean water enters the nozzle 613 and is sprayed onto the photovoltaic panel through the nozzle 613; during the spraying process, the spray motor 610 drives the drive gear 609, and under the meshing action of the gears, the driven gear 611 rotates, causing the nozzle 613 to perform oscillating spraying; thus expanding the spraying area. In this embodiment, when the photovoltaic panel is tilted and being washed, if the two brush rods 501 move from a relatively low position to a relatively high position, the unwashed area on the photovoltaic panel is relatively large, and the flow regulating valve 608 controls the water flow to gradually decrease, which helps to save water resources. Conversely, if the two brush rods 501 move from a relatively high position to a relatively low position, the photovoltaic panel has been completely washed, and the flow regulating valve 608 controls the water flow to gradually increase, which helps to remove the stains remaining on the photovoltaic panel.
[0030] This invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. Any modifications made by those skilled in the art based on the above concept without creative effort are within the protection scope of this invention.
