Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of solar photovoltaic power generation equipment, and particularly relates to an extended solar power generation device for vehicle rooftops. Background Technology
[0002] Photovoltaic power generation is a technology that uses the photovoltaic effect at the semiconductor interface to directly convert light energy into electrical energy. It mainly consists of three parts: solar panel modules, controllers, and inverters. The main components are composed of electronic components, and multiple sets of solar cells can be connected in series to form a large-area photovoltaic power generation device.
[0003] With the vigorous promotion of new energy sources, solar energy, as a clean energy source, is widely used. One method is to install photovoltaic cells on the roofs of vehicles, which generates electricity. However, existing solar panels on vehicle roofs are mostly fixed in structure, and due to the limited area of the roof, the solar panels that can be installed are usually small and cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the angle of sunlight, resulting in low flexibility and low utilization rate of solar energy. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention provides an extended solar power generation device for vehicle rooftops to solve the aforementioned problems existing in the prior art.
[0005] This invention provides a roof-mounted extended solar power generation device, including a mounting base disposed on the top of a vehicle body. The roof-mounted extended solar power generation device also includes a first mounting bracket. A rotating base is disposed at the top of the mounting base. A first connecting rod is disposed in the middle of the mounting base, and a second connecting rod is disposed in the middle of the rotating base. The second connecting rod is mounted on the first connecting rod via a rotating platform. One end of the first mounting bracket is rotatably disposed on the top side of the rotating base via a hinge. One end of a first lifting rod is disposed at the bottom of the first mounting bracket, and the other end of the first lifting rod is disposed on the second connecting rod. A second mounting bracket is inserted into the end of the first mounting bracket away from the hinge. Solar panels are mounted on both the first and second mounting brackets. A locking system that engages with the mounting base is disposed at the bottom of the rotating base.
[0006] In the above technical solution, solar panels are laid on mounting frames one and two, and are mounted on mounting bases via rotating bases. The mounting bases are designed according to the actual size of the vehicle roof. Since mounting frame two is extendable and retractable onto mounting frame one, the placement of solar panels does not need to be based on the size of the vehicle roof, effectively increasing the number of solar panels that can be installed on a single vehicle roof and expanding the area available for solar energy reception. The overall structure is simple and easy to install and remove. Because the rotating base is mounted on the mounting base via a rotating platform, the solar panels can be rotated as a whole, adjusting their orientation to adapt to different angles of sunlight and maximize sunlight reception, effectively improving the utilization rate of solar energy.
[0007] Furthermore, a small solar panel is also provided in the middle of the first mounting frame.
[0008] In the above technical solution, the small solar panel increases the area that can receive solar energy.
[0009] Furthermore, a drive cylinder is provided at the bottom of the first lifting rod for driving the first lifting rod to extend or retract.
[0010] In the above technical solution, the No. 1 drive cylinder is used to drive the No. 1 lifting rod to extend and retract, so as to stably provide power.
[0011] Furthermore, the first mounting frame is also equipped with a second drive cylinder and a second lifting rod. One end of the second lifting rod is located at the end of the first mounting frame connected to the rotating base, and the other end of the second lifting rod is located at the outer end of the second mounting frame. The end of the second mounting frame away from the outer end is inserted into the inner side of the first mounting frame. The second drive cylinder is located at the end of the second lifting rod and is used to drive the second lifting rod to extend or retract.
[0012] Furthermore, a guide rail is provided on the inner side wall of the first mounting bracket, and the second mounting bracket is slidably mounted on the guide rail.
[0013] In the above technical solution, the No. 2 drive cylinder can provide the extension and retraction power for the No. 2 lifting rod. Since one end of the No. 2 lifting rod is set on the No. 1 mounting frame and the other end is set on the No. 2 mounting frame, and the No. 2 mounting frame is slidably set on the No. 1 mounting frame through the guide rail, the No. 2 mounting frame can be driven by the No. 2 drive cylinder to move and extend along the guide rail inside the No. 1 mounting frame, thereby completing the expansion of the solar power generation device.
[0014] Furthermore, the roof-mounted extended solar power generation device also includes a sun-tracking system, which is connected to the first drive cylinder, the second drive cylinder, and the rotating platform.
[0015] In the above technical solution, the solar tracking system adopts a solar solar tracking system, which can adjust the orientation of the No. 1 mounting frame in real time according to the angle of sunlight through the No. 1 drive cylinder, the No. 2 drive cylinder and the rotating platform, effectively ensuring the effective duration of sunlight and improving the utilization efficiency of solar energy.
[0016] Furthermore, the connection surface between the mounting base and the top of the vehicle body is provided with a flexible anti-slip layer.
[0017] In the above technical solution, the flexible anti-slip layer can effectively prevent the paint on the top of the vehicle body from being scratched when the mounting base is placed on the top of the vehicle body, and can also effectively reduce the vibration transmitted to the mounting base during the operation of the vehicle body.
[0018] Furthermore, the mounting base is mounted on the top of the vehicle body via a detachable connector.
[0019] In the above technical solution, the detachable connector allows for flexible installation and removal of the mounting base, resulting in greater flexibility in use.
[0020] In summary, the present invention provides an extended solar power generation device for vehicle rooftops, which has the following advantages:
[0021] (1) By laying solar panels on mounting frame 1 and mounting frame 2, and mounting frame 2 being movably inserted into mounting frame 1, the solar panels can form an extended structure. That is, the laying of solar panels does not need to be set according to the size of the vehicle body top, effectively increasing the number of solar panels that can be laid on a single vehicle body top and increasing the area that can receive solar energy.
[0022] (2) The overall structure is simple and easy to install and disassemble;
[0023] (3) Since the rotating base is set on the mounting base through the rotating platform, the solar panel can be rotated as a whole to adjust the orientation of the solar panel to adapt to different angles of sunlight.
[0024] (4) Since one end of the No. 1 mounting frame is hinged to the rotating base, the No. 1 mounting frame can rotate with the hinge as the connection point, and adjust the tilt angle of the No. 1 mounting frame and the No. 2 mounting frame to fully receive sunlight, thus effectively improving the utilization rate of solar energy.

Detailed Implementation
[0029] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention or the prior art, the present invention will be briefly introduced below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and descriptions of the embodiments or the prior art. Obviously, the following description of the structure of the accompanying drawings is only some embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort. It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is for the purpose of helping to understand the present invention, but does not constitute a limitation of the present invention.
[0030] The following combination Figures 1 to 3 The invention will be further described.
[0031] Example 1:
[0032] Reference Figure 1As shown, this embodiment provides a roof-mounted extended solar power generation device, including a mounting base 101, which is disposed on the top of the vehicle body. The roof-mounted extended solar power generation device also includes a first mounting bracket 102. A rotating base 103 is disposed on the top of the mounting base 101. A first connecting rod 104 is disposed in the middle of the mounting base 101, and a second connecting rod 105 is disposed in the middle of the rotating base 103. The second connecting rod 105 is disposed on the first connecting rod 104 via a rotating platform 118. One end of the first mounting bracket 102... The rotating base 103 is rotatably mounted on the top side of the rotating base 103 via a hinge 106. One end of a first lifting rod 107 is provided at the bottom of the first mounting bracket 102, and the other end of the first lifting rod 107 is provided on the second connecting rod 105. A second mounting bracket 108 is inserted into the end of the first mounting bracket 102 away from the hinge 106. Solar panels 109 are laid on both the first mounting bracket 102 and the second mounting bracket 108. The bottom of the rotating base 103 is provided with a locking system that engages with the mounting base 101.
[0033] In the above embodiment, solar panels 109 are laid on the first mounting bracket 102 and the second mounting bracket 108, and are mounted on the mounting base 101 by rotating the base 103. That is, the mounting base 101 is set according to the actual size of the vehicle body top. Since the second mounting bracket 108 is telescopically mounted on the first mounting bracket 102, the laying of solar panels 109 does not need to be set according to the size of the vehicle body top, which effectively increases the number of solar panels 109 that can be laid on a single vehicle body top, and increases the area that can receive solar energy. The overall structure is simple and easy to install and disassemble.
[0034] Among them, such as Figure 3 As shown, the locking system includes a hinge rod assembly 114, a locking post 115, a locking groove 116, and a motor with a push rod 117. The hinge rod assembly 114 is located at the bottom of the rotating platform 118. The locking post 115 is located at the bottom of the rotating base 103. The locking groove 116 is located at the top of the mounting base 101. The locking post 115 is movably inserted into the locking groove 116.
[0035] The aforementioned rotating platform 118 is an electric rotating platform. A mounting platform 119 can be installed at the bottom of the rotating platform 118. A hinged rod assembly 114, consisting of multiple connecting rods, is arranged around the periphery of the mounting platform 119. The two ends of each connecting rod are hinged to the mounting platform 119 and the first connecting rod 104, respectively. A motor is located in front of the rotating platform 118. A push rod 117 is controlled by the motor to extend and retract. The movable end of the push rod 117 abuts against the rotating platform 118. After the motor starts, the push rod 117 moves to push the rotating platform 118, causing the rotating platform 118 to rise around the hinged rod assembly 114 as a fulcrum. The locking post 115 separates from the locking groove 116, locking... When the system is turned on, the rotating base 103 can rotate smoothly. When the motor is turned off and the push rod 117 is shortened, the rotating platform 118 returns to its original position, causing the second mounting bracket 108 to move down until the locking post 115 on the rotating base 103 engages in the locking groove 116 of the mounting base 101, thus locking it and effectively preventing the generator from shaking during vehicle movement. The rotating platform 118 can return to its original position by the motor driving the push rod 117 to drive the rotating platform 118 back to its original position, or by setting a reset spring on the hinge rod assembly 114 so that the rotating platform 118 automatically returns to its original position when the push rod 117 is no longer pushed.
[0036] On the other hand, since the rotating base 103 is mounted on the mounting base 101 via a rotating platform, the solar panel 109 can be rotated as a whole to adjust its orientation to adapt to different angles of sunlight. Furthermore, since one end of the first mounting bracket 102 is hinged to the rotating base 103, the first mounting bracket 102 can rotate with the hinge 106 as the connection point to adjust the tilt angle between the first mounting bracket 102 and the second mounting bracket 108, so as to fully receive sunlight and effectively improve the utilization rate of solar energy.
[0037] Example 2:
[0038] Reference Figure 1As shown, this embodiment provides a roof-mounted extended solar power generation device, including a mounting base 101 disposed on the top of the vehicle body. The roof-mounted extended solar power generation device also includes a first mounting bracket 102. A rotating base 103 is disposed on the top of the mounting base 101. A first connecting rod 104 is disposed in the middle of the mounting base 101, and a second connecting rod 105 is disposed in the middle of the rotating base 103. The second connecting rod 105 is mounted on the first connecting rod 104 via a rotating platform 118. The first mounting bracket 102... One end of the first mounting bracket 102 is rotatably mounted on the top side of the rotating base 103 via a hinge 106. One end of the first lifting rod 107 is located at the bottom of the first mounting bracket 102, and the other end of the first lifting rod 107 is located on the second connecting rod 105. A second mounting bracket 108 is inserted into the end of the first mounting bracket 102 away from the hinge 106. Solar panels 109 are laid on both the first mounting bracket 102 and the second mounting bracket 108. A small solar panel 110 is also provided in the middle of the first mounting bracket 102.
[0039] In the above embodiment, solar panels 109 are laid on mounting bracket 102 and mounting bracket 108, and are mounted on mounting base 101 via rotating base 103. That is, mounting base 101 is set according to the actual size of the vehicle body top. Since mounting bracket 108 is telescopically mounted on mounting bracket 102, the laying of solar panels 109 does not need to be set according to the size of the vehicle body top, effectively increasing the number of solar panels 109 that can be laid on a single vehicle body top, increasing the area that can receive solar energy. The overall structure is simple and easy to install and disassemble. Since rotating base 103 is mounted on mounting base 101 via a rotating platform, the solar panels 109 can be rotated as a whole to adjust the orientation of the solar panels 109 to adapt to different angles of sunlight to fully receive sunlight, effectively improving the utilization rate of solar energy. The additional small solar panels 110 further increase the area that can receive solar energy.
[0040] Example 3:
[0041] Reference Figure 1As shown, this embodiment provides a roof-mounted extended solar power generation device, including a mounting base 101, which is disposed on the top of the vehicle body. The roof-mounted extended solar power generation device also includes a first mounting bracket 102. A rotating base 103 is disposed on the top of the mounting base 101. A first connecting rod 104 is disposed in the middle of the mounting base 101, and a second connecting rod 105 is disposed in the middle of the rotating base 103. The second connecting rod 105 is mounted on the first connecting rod 104 via a rotating platform. On the top side of the rotating base 103, one end of the first mounting bracket 102 is rotatably mounted on the top side of the first rotating base 103 via a hinge 106. One end of the first lifting rod 107 is provided at the bottom of the first mounting bracket 102, and the other end of the first lifting rod 107 is provided on the second connecting rod 105. A second mounting bracket 108 is inserted into the end of the first mounting bracket 102 away from the hinge 106. Solar panels 109 are laid on both the first mounting bracket 102 and the second mounting bracket 108.
[0042] The first lifting rod 107 is provided with a first driving cylinder 111 at its bottom for driving the first lifting rod 107 to extend and retract. The first mounting frame 102 is also provided with a second driving cylinder 112 and a second lifting rod 113. One end of the second lifting rod 113 is located at the end of the first mounting frame 102 connected to the rotating base 103, and the other end of the second lifting rod 113 is located at the outer end of the second mounting frame 108. The end of the second mounting frame 108 away from the outer end is inserted into the inner side of the first mounting frame 102. The second driving cylinder 112 is located at the end of the second lifting rod 113 for driving the second lifting rod 113 to extend and retract. The inner side wall of the first mounting frame 102 is provided with a guide rail (not shown in the figure), and the second mounting frame 108 is slidably mounted on the guide rail.
[0043] In the above embodiment, the first drive cylinder 111 is used to drive the first lifting rod 107 to extend and retract, so as to stably provide power. The second drive cylinder 112 can provide the power for the extension and retraction of the second lifting rod 113. Since one end of the second lifting rod 113 is set on the first mounting frame 102 and the other end is set on the second mounting frame 108, and the second mounting frame 108 is slidably set on the first mounting frame 102 through the guide rail, the second mounting frame 108 can be driven by the second drive cylinder 112 to move and extend along the guide rail inside the first mounting frame 102, thereby completing the expansion of the solar power generation device.
[0044] Example 4:
[0045] In conjunction with the above embodiments, such as Figure 1As shown, the roof-mounted extended solar power generation device also includes a sun-tracking system (not shown in the figure). The sun-tracking system is connected to the first drive cylinder 111, the second drive cylinder 112 and the rotating platform. The mounting base 101 and the connection surface of the vehicle body top are provided with a flexible anti-slip layer (not shown in the figure). The mounting base 101 is mounted on the vehicle body top through a detachable connector.
[0046] The solar tracking system in the above embodiment adopts a solar solar tracking system, which can adjust the orientation of the first mounting bracket 102 in real time according to the angle of sunlight through the first drive cylinder 111, the second drive cylinder 112 and the rotating platform. This effectively ensures the effective duration of sunlight exposure and improves the utilization efficiency of solar energy. The flexible anti-slip layer can effectively prevent the mounting base 101 from scratching the paint on the top of the vehicle body when it is placed on the top of the vehicle body. It can also effectively reduce the vibration transmitted to the mounting base 101 during vehicle operation. The detachable connector allows for flexible installation and removal of the mounting base 101, making it more flexible to use.
[0047] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the solar power generation device can be detachably installed on the top of the vehicle body via the mounting base 101. The solar power generation device can be connected to the battery inside the vehicle body for power storage, or a battery can be installed inside or outside the vehicle body for power storage. In actual use, when the wind is strong while the vehicle is in motion, the second mounting bracket 108 of the solar power generation device can be retracted into the first mounting bracket 102, and then the first mounting bracket 102 can be folded and laid flat on the top of the vehicle body to reduce the impact of driving resistance on the solar power generation device. When the vehicle is parked or moving slowly and the wind is weak, the solar power generation device of the present invention can be extended for use.
[0048] This invention provides an extended solar power generation device for vehicle roofs. The overall structure is simple and reasonable, facilitating installation and disassembly. Solar panels are laid on mounting frames one and two, with the second mounting frame movably inserted into the first mounting frame. This allows the solar panels to form an extended structure, meaning the installation of solar panels does not need to be based on the size of the vehicle roof, effectively increasing the number of solar panels that can be installed on a single vehicle roof and expanding the area available for receiving solar energy. Because the rotating base is mounted on the mounting base via a rotating platform, the solar panels can be rotated as a whole, adjusting their orientation to accommodate different angles of sunlight. Since one end of the first mounting frame is hinged to the rotating base, the first mounting frame can rotate around the hinge, adjusting the tilt angle of the first and second mounting frames to maximize sunlight reception, effectively improving solar energy utilization and facilitating widespread use.
[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
