DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the present invention includes a solar greenhouse 1, a photovoltaic module, a water collection module and a water guide module. The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a photovoltaic system combined with agriculture includes solar greenhouses 1, which are arranged in rows, and photovoltaic modules are provided on the top of each solar greenhouse 1 and on the ground between each two adjacent solar greenhouses 1; Figure 2 As shown, the distance between each two adjacent solar greenhouses 1, and the height and position of the photovoltaic modules located on the ground are such that when the sun 7 altitude angle is the smallest, the sunlight irradiates all the photovoltaic panels of the photovoltaic modules located on the ground. In this way, between each two adjacent solar greenhouses, the setting of one solar greenhouse and its top photovoltaic modules will not affect the lighting of the adjacent solar greenhouses and the photovoltaic modules between the two solar greenhouses, thereby realizing the combination of solar greenhouses and photovoltaic modules and making full use of land resources. Figure 3 As shown, when the solar altitude angle is the smallest, all photovoltaic modules located on the ground can be illuminated by sunlight. When the solar altitude angle increases, all photovoltaic modules located on the ground can be illuminated by sunlight.

[0025] In order to ensure the structural strength of the photovoltaic modules and facilitate the assembly between the photovoltaic modules and the solar greenhouse 1, Figure 4 As shown, the photovoltaic assembly includes a photovoltaic mounting plate 3 and a photovoltaic bracket 2. The photovoltaic mounting plate 3 is equipped with a photovoltaic panel, and the photovoltaic bracket 2 is a right-angled triangle structure. Figure 7 As shown, the photovoltaic brackets 2 are multiple and arranged in parallel, and every two adjacent photovoltaic brackets 2 are fixedly connected by a connecting rod 5. The photovoltaic mounting plate is located on the hypotenuse 23 of the photovoltaic bracket 2, and the horizontal right-angled side of the photovoltaic bracket 2 is fixedly connected to the rear wall 11 of the solar greenhouse 1.

[0026] In order to further enhance the structural strength of the photovoltaic module, the rear wall 11 of the solar greenhouse 1 is provided with a vertical support rod 12, such as Figure 4 As shown, there is a lower support rod 21 between the vertical support rod 12 and the horizontal right angle side of the photovoltaic bracket 2. In this way, the photovoltaic bracket 2 is a triangular structure, and the horizontal right angle side of the photovoltaic bracket 2 and the vertical support rod 12 and the lower support rod 21 form a triangular structure, and the overall structure is stable.

[0027] Due to the change of seasons, the solar altitude angle is constantly changing. In order to make the sunlight as direct as possible to the photovoltaic panels, Figure 5As shown, one end of the hypotenuse 23 of the photovoltaic bracket 2 is hingedly connected to the horizontal right-angle side of the photovoltaic bracket 2 through the hinge shaft 24, and the other end of the hypotenuse 23 of the photovoltaic bracket 2 is slidably connected to the vertical right-angle side of the photovoltaic bracket 2. The sliding trajectory is an arc line, and for this purpose, an arc groove is provided on the side wall of the vertical right-angle side of the photovoltaic bracket 2. The end face of the hypotenuse 23 of the photovoltaic bracket 2 is in contact with the end face of the vertical right-angle side of the photovoltaic bracket 2, and the photovoltaic bracket 2 has an adjustment mechanism for driving the hypotenuse 23 of the photovoltaic bracket 2 to swing around the hinge point. The adjustment mechanism includes a crank 4, which is threadedly connected to the connecting rod 5, one end of the crank 4 is connected to the hypotenuse 23 of the photovoltaic bracket 2 through a universal joint 22, and the other end of the crank 4 is a driving part. When in use, the driving part of the crank 4 is shaken to rotate the crank 4, and at this time, the hypotenuse 23 of the photovoltaic bracket 2 is pulled by the universal joint 22 to swing around the hinge shaft 24, so that the inclination angle of the hypotenuse 23 of the photovoltaic bracket 2 changes. When the solar altitude angle increases, the handle 4 is shaken to reduce the inclination angle of the hypotenuse 23 of the photovoltaic bracket 2. Figure 6 As shown, so that the sunlight can directly hit the photovoltaic panel as much as possible. To facilitate the installation of the crank 4, as shown Figure 7 As shown, a threaded hole 51 is provided on the connecting rod 5 , and the threaded hole 51 is threadedly connected to the crank 4 .

[0028] In order to clean the photovoltaic modules and increase the photoelectric conversion efficiency, the photovoltaic system of the present invention also includes a water collection module. The water collection module collects steam water in the solar greenhouse 1, and uses the steam water to clean the photovoltaic panels of the photovoltaic modules. The water after cleaning the photovoltaic panels flows into the solar greenhouse 1. The steam water in the solar greenhouse mainly flows along the plastic film of the solar greenhouse. Therefore, a water collection trough is placed on the ground inside the solar greenhouse to collect the steam water left on the plastic film of the solar greenhouse. The steam water does not contain soil or contains very little soil, and can be used to clean the photovoltaic panels of the photovoltaic modules. In order to recycle the dirty water after cleaning the photovoltaic panels, the present invention also includes a water guide module, such as Figure 8 As shown, the water guide module includes a recovery tank 6 and a conduit 61. The recovery tank 6 is located at the bottom of the photovoltaic module. The water for cleaning the photovoltaic panel flows along the surface of the photovoltaic panel into the recovery tank 6; one end of the conduit 61 is connected to the bottom of the recovery tank 6, and the other end of the conduit 61 extends into the solar greenhouse 1. The dirty water after cleaning the photovoltaic panel flows along the photovoltaic panel into the recovery tank 6, and then flows to the ground of the solar greenhouse 1 through the conduit 61. By guiding the other end of the conduit 61 to the roots of the plants, irrigation of the plants can be achieved.

[0029] The beneficial effects of the invention are as follows: through the combination of solar greenhouses and photovoltaic modules, the free space between solar greenhouses and the space above the solar greenhouses can be reasonably utilized to build photovoltaic modules for photovoltaic power generation; by designing the spacing between solar greenhouses and the height position of photovoltaic modules, when the solar altitude angle is the smallest, the entire photovoltaic module between two adjacent solar greenhouses can be irradiated with sunlight, thereby making full use of sunlight. By setting the adjustment mechanism, the inclination angle of the photovoltaic panel can be adjusted according to the change of the solar altitude angle to ensure the photoelectric conversion efficiency. The setting of the water collection module can fully recycle the evaporated water in the solar greenhouse and use it to clean the surface of the photovoltaic panel, thereby ensuring the photoelectric conversion efficiency. The dirty water after cleaning the photovoltaic panel is guided to the solar greenhouse 1 through the water guide module for irrigation of plants, thereby realizing the recycling and reuse of water resources.
