Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of solar energy, and in particular to a solar automatic snow remover with an inclined structure. Background Art

[0002] Solar panels generally refer to solar cells. Solar cells are a type of photoelectric semiconductor sheet that uses sunlight to generate electricity directly. They are also called "solar chips" or "photocells". As long as they are illuminated under certain illumination conditions, they can instantly output voltage and generate current in the presence of a circuit. Solar cells are devices that directly convert sunlight into electrical energy through light or photochemical effects. When it snows, solar panels are easily covered with a large amount of snow. Snow covering the surface of solar panels will hinder the absorption and conversion of solar radiation, thereby reducing the energy output efficiency of solar panels. At the same time, the weight of snow may put pressure on solar panels and cause structural damage. Long-term snow coverage may also lead to snow accumulation and freezing, increasing the difficulty of maintaining solar panels. In addition, it is necessary to clean the snow covering the solar panels. Existing snow removal technologies mainly include manual snow removal and mechanical snow removal. Manual snow removal uses various snow removal tools, and mechanical snow removal includes snow removal robots and snow removal devices installed on solar brackets.

[0003] For example, in the existing Chinese patent with publication number CN110739906B, a solar photovoltaic panel support device capable of removing snow is disclosed, which includes a bracket and a support plate fixedly arranged on the upper end face of the bracket, a mounting shaft is rotatably provided on the front end face of the support plate, a rotating rod is fixedly provided on the mounting shaft, a mounting plate is fixedly provided on the upper end of the rotating rod, and a solar panel is fixedly arranged on the upper end face of the mounting plate. When snow accumulates on the surface of the solar panel, the mounting shaft rotates to rotate the solar panel to a vertical state. Through the above-mentioned prior art, after snowfall, snow accumulates on the upper surface of the solar panel, the electric push rod is started to disengage the push rod from the positioning hole, the rotating motor is started to rotate the driving shaft, and the mounting shaft is driven through the driving gear and the transmission gear to rotate the mounting plate to a vertical state, and the rotating motor is turned off; the snow on the solar panel falls off under the action of gravity, the transmission rod is pressed against the vibration plate, the vibration motor is started to vibrate the vibration plate, and the mounting plate is driven to vibrate through the transmission rod, so that the remaining snow on the solar panel falls off, the electric guide rail is started, the wiping plate drives the wiping cloth to move downward, and the upper surface of the solar panel is wiped by the wiping cloth, the rotating motor is started to drive the second cam to rotate through the power shaft, thereby pressing the electric guide rail, and the transmission through the intermediate rod causes the left and right electric guide rails to swing back and forth, so as to wipe the remaining snow and water on the solar panel.

[0004] However, the above prior art has the following technical defects:

[0005] 1. Every time the above device is used to clear snow, the rotating motor will drive the mounting plate to rotate to a vertical state. The reality is that when the snow is thick, it is actually only necessary to drive the mounting plate to rotate a certain angle to achieve the cleaning effect. The thicker the snow is, the heavier the gravity is. Then, the mounting plate can be rotated slightly, and the snow will automatically fall off under its own gravity. There is no need to rotate it to a vertical state every time, which results in unnecessary energy consumption.

[0006] Second, as the number of times the solar panels are cleared of snow increases, the vibration motor starts to vibrate the solar panels for a longer time, which will gradually increase the risk of the solar panels being damaged by vibration; secondly, although the above-mentioned device can wipe the surface of the solar panels with a wiping cloth to wipe off the remaining snow and water, the adhesion of snow often causes ice to form on the surface of the solar panels, and the above-mentioned device cannot effectively remove the ice by vibrating and wiping.

[0007] Based on this, on the basis of the existing solar photovoltaic panel support equipment capable of snow removal, in order to overcome the above-mentioned technical defects, there is still room for improvement. Summary of the invention

[0008] In order to automatically adjust the inclination angle of the solar panel according to the thickness of the snow so that the snow can slide off automatically and reduce unnecessary cleaning energy consumption, and at the same time effectively eliminate and clean the ice and freezing phenomenon on the surface of the solar panel to avoid the rapid re-attachment of the snow, the present application provides a solar automatic snow remover with an inclined structure.

[0021] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0022] When the set time for clearing snow arrives, the timing controller will cut off the power to the side electromagnet and the bottom electromagnet, and the gravity of the snow covered on the snow arc plate will press the L drive seat to slide downward. The sliding distance depends on the thickness of the snow covered on the snow arc plate. The thicker the thickness, the more gravity presses the L drive seat downward to slide a greater distance. The greater the distance the L drive seat slides downward, the greater the distance the inner connecting rod drives the limiting trapezoidal plate to slide in the direction of the driving rack. Under the action of the limiting trapezoidal plate, the driving rack is pushed up by the driving cylinder. The shorter the distance, the smaller the angle of rotation of the driving gear, that is, the smaller the angle of rotation of the solar panel, and vice versa. Because the thicker the snow covered on the snow arc plate, the thicker the snow covered on the solar panel, so the solar panel is driven to rotate slightly, and the snow covered on the solar panel will slide down under its own gravity, so as to achieve the effect of automatically adjusting the rotation and cleaning angle of the solar panel according to the thickness of the snow, thereby reducing unnecessary cleaning energy consumption.

[0023] When the snow covering the solar panel is cleared, the snow covering the snow arc plate needs to be cleared for the next use; specifically, when the driving cylinder pushes the driving rack to rise, the characteristics of the ratchet gear will not drive the rotating shaft to rotate, and when the driving cylinder drives the driving rack to descend and reset, the linkage rack will drive the ratchet gear to drive the rotating shaft to rotate, that is, the friction gear continuously rotates and conflicts with the circular rotating wheel, and the L vibration rod can be driven to rotate through the driving connecting rod. When the friction gear gap does not conflict with the circular rotating wheel, the L vibration rod rotates and resets under the action of the reset torsion spring, so that one end of the L vibration rod hits and conflicts on the L connecting rod, thereby reciprocating to achieve the effect of vibrating the snow arc plate, so as to achieve the purpose of clearing the snow covering the snow arc plate.

[0024] When the surface of the solar panel is frozen, the thermal deicing mechanism is started, and the heating base starts to heat the heating tube to heat up the heat-conducting rubber scraper. After heating to a certain temperature, the drive motor is started to drive the bidirectional screw to rotate, and in cooperation with the threaded through hole opened on the inner moment block, the heat-conducting rubber scraper can be driven to slide slowly on the surface of the solar panel, thereby achieving the effect of clearing the ice on the surface of the solar panel.

When the regulating rod 11 is rotated by force, the supporting base plate 22 will rotate together with the regulating rod 11, that is, the solar panel 23 is driven to rotate; a side support base 24 is fixedly arranged on one side of the mounting frame 1, and a control box 25 is fixedly mounted on the side support base 24. The control box 25 is provided with an automatic regulating mechanism 3 for driving the supporting base plate 22 to rotate, which is used to automatically adjust the angle of driving the solar panel 23 to rotate according to the thickness of the snowfall cover to reduce unnecessary rotation energy consumption; a thermal energy deicing mechanism 4 for cleaning the ice on the surface of the solar panel 23 is provided on the supporting base plate 22, which can effectively clean the ice formed on the surface of the solar panel 23.

[0048] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, since it is necessary to automatically adjust the rotation angle of the driving support base plate 22 according to the thickness of the snow cover, the automatic control component 6 includes a limiting trapezoidal plate 61, a U-shaped positioning rod 62, a reaction drive box 63 and a reaction drive unit 7; the limiting trapezoidal plate 61 is horizontally slidably set on the inner wall of the control box 25 above the driving rack 51 through a T-shaped block 64, and a horizontal slide groove 253 for sliding and installing the T-shaped block 64 is opened on the inner wall of the control box 25, and the U-shaped positioning rod 62 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the control box 25 at the horizontal slide groove 253, and the U-shaped positioning rod 62 starts the limiting effect on the T-shaped block 64, so that the T-shaped block 64 cannot slide out of the horizontal slide groove 253; the reaction drive box 63 is fixedly set on the outer wall of the control box 25, and the reaction drive unit 7 is set on the reaction drive box 63, which is used to control the sliding of the limiting trapezoidal plate 61.

When the bottom electromagnet 76 is energized, it will be in a repulsive state with the bottom magnetic block 74, that is, when the L drive seat 72 is in the lower part of the U-shaped base rod 71, it will push the L drive seat 72 to slide upward, so that the side magnetic block 73 on the L drive seat 72 is attracted to the side electromagnet 75.

[0052] When the side electromagnet 75 and the bottom electromagnet 76 are powered off, when the L drive seat 72 slides downward under the action of other external forces, it will drive the outer connecting rod 78 and the inner connecting rod 79 to expand to both sides simultaneously, that is, the outer connecting rod 78 pushes the dovetail adapter seat 77 to slide away from the U-shaped base rod 71, and the inner connecting rod 79 will push the limiting trapezoidal plate 61 to slide above the driving rack 51; the reactor 8 is arranged on the reaction drive box 63 and the control box 25, and is used to drive the L drive seat 72 downward according to the thickness of the snow cover, that is, to drive the limiting trapezoidal plate 61.

[0053] Reference Fig.11 and Fig.12As shown, since it is necessary to drive the limiting trapezoidal plate 61 to different distances according to the thickness of the snow cover, the reactor 8 includes an L-type connecting rod 81, a snow arc plate 82, a triangular base 83, an L-type vibration rod 84, a reset torsion spring 85 and a linkage 9; one end of the L-type connecting rod 81 penetrates the reaction drive box 63 and is fixedly connected to the upper end of the L-type driving seat 72; a rectangular opening 634 for the L-type connecting rod 81 to penetrate and install is provided on the reaction drive box 63; the snow arc plate 82 is fixedly sleeved on the reaction drive box 63 through the intermediate connecting block 86. When the snow falls on the surface of the solar panel 23, it will also cover the snow arc plate 82. When the snow is thicker, that is, the weight is greater, the side electromagnet 75 and the bottom electromagnet 76 can be pressed down to push the L driving seat 72 to slide downward. The longer the distance that the limit trapezoidal plate 61 is driven to slide above the driving rack 51, the smaller the distance between the driving rack 51 and the limit trapezoidal plate 61, and the smaller the space that can be raised. The smaller the angle at which the driving rack 51 can drive the rotating gear 33 to rotate, the smaller the supporting base plate 22 and the solar panel 23 can be driven to rotate slightly, and the snow covering the solar panel 23 will automatically slide down under the action of its own gravity. On the contrary, the thinner the thickness of the snow covering the snow arc plate 82, the smaller the distance that the L driving seat 72 is pushed downward to slide, thereby driving the limiting trapezoidal plate 61 to slide above the driving rack 51. The larger the distance between the driving rack 51 and the limiting trapezoidal plate 61, the larger the space that can be raised, that is, the larger the angle at which the driving rack 51 can drive the rotating gear 33 to rotate, and the larger the supporting base plate 22 and the solar panel 23 can be driven to rotate significantly, and the small amount of snow covering the solar panel 23 can automatically slide down under the action of its own gravity; after the cleaning is completed, the side electromagnet 75 and the bottom electromagnet 76 are energized again, so that the L driving seat 72 rises and resets, that is, the limiting trapezoidal plate 61 and the snow arc plate 82 are driven to return to their initial positions.

[0054] The triangular base 83 is fixedly arranged on the lower side of the reaction drive box 63, and the L vibration rod 84 is rotatably arranged on the triangular base 83 through the middle round rod 87. A round rod through-hole 841 is penetrated on the L vibration rod 84 for installing the middle round rod 87. The reset torsion spring 85 is sleeved on the middle round rod 87 in the round rod through-hole 841. The reset torsion spring 85 always drives the L vibration rod 84 to rotate in the direction of the L connecting rod 81, that is, one end of the L vibration rod 84 always contacts the L connecting rod 81 in the absence of other external forces; the linkage member 9 is arranged in the control box 25, and is used to cooperate with the square stop block 52 for sliding down and resetting to drive the L vibration rod 84.

[0055] Reference Fig.13 and Fig.14As shown, considering that the snow covered on the snow arc plate 82 also needs to be cleared, the linkage member 9 includes a driving link 91, a circular rotating wheel 92, a linkage rack 93, a linkage rod 94, an equipment block 95, a rotating shaft 96, a ratchet gear 97 and a contact gear 98; one end of the driving link 91 is rotatably arranged on the L vibration rod 84, and the other end penetrates and extends into the control box 25, and the control box 25 is provided with a link through hole 255 for the driving link 91 to penetrate and extend into, the circular rotating wheel 92 is rotatably arranged at the extending end of the driving link 91, and the linkage rack 93 is slidably arranged on the inner side wall of the control box 25 through a dovetail bar 99, and the inner side wall of the control box 25 is provided with a dovetail vertical groove 25 for the dovetail bar 99 to slide and install. 6. One end of the linkage rod 94 is fixedly mounted on the square block 52, and the other end is fixedly connected to the lower end of the linkage rack 93. The equipment block 95 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the control box 25. The rotating shaft 96 is rotatably mounted on the equipment block 95. The ratchet gear 97 and the contact gear 98 are both fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft 96, and the ratchet gear 97 is meshed with the linkage rack 93. The contact gear 98 intermittently contacts with the circular rotating wheel 92. When the linkage rack 93 follows the square block 52 to slide upward, the ratchet gear 97 will not be driven to rotate due to the characteristics of the ratchet gear 97. When the linkage rack 93 follows the square block 52 to slide downward to reset, the ratchet gear 97 can be driven to rotate through the rotating shaft 96 to drive the contact gear 98 to rotate.

[0056] The rotation of the friction gear 98 can intermittently interfere with the circular rotating wheel 92. Whenever it interferes with the circular rotating wheel 92, the L vibration rod 84 will be driven to rotate away from the L connecting rod 81 through the driving connecting rod 91. With the continuous cooperation with the reset torsion spring 85, the effect of one end of the L vibration rod 84 reciprocatingly contacting and hitting the L connecting rod 81 can be achieved, and then the snow arc plate 82 is vibrated through the L connecting rod 81, so as to achieve the purpose of clearing the snow covering the snow arc plate 82.

[0057] Reference Fig.15As shown, in order to effectively clean the ice formed on the surface of the solar panel 23, the thermal deicing mechanism 4 includes a protective arc rod 41, a rectangular side rod 42, a heating base 43, a heating tube 44, a heat-conducting rubber scraper 45 and a scraper 49; the protective arc rod 41 is fixedly installed on the supporting base plate 22, the rectangular side rod 42 is fixedly arranged on the side of the supporting base plate 22 away from the control box 25, the heating base 43 is limited and slidably arranged on the rectangular side rod 42 through the inner square block 46, the rectangular side rod 42 is provided with a rectangular slide 421 for sliding installation of the inner square block 46 and a reciprocating slide 422 connected to the rectangular slide 421, the heating tube 44 is arranged on the heating base On the seat 43, the heat-conducting rubber scraper 45 is sleeved on the heating tube 44, and the timing controller 31 can control the heating base 43 to heat the heating tube 44, so that the heat-conducting rubber scraper 45 can be heated. It should be noted that the heat of the heating tube 44 when heated to the highest temperature will not cause damage to the solar panel 23, and the temperature of the heating tube 44 is not higher than the temperature of the direct sunlight on the solar panel 23; the scraper 49 is arranged on the rectangular side rod 42 and the supporting bottom plate 22, and is used to drive the heating tube 44, that is, the heat-conducting rubber scraper 45 to slide slowly back and forth on the solar panel 23, so as to scrape off the residual snow and ice on the surface of the solar panel 23.

[0058] Reference Fig.15 and Fig.16 The figure is a schematic diagram of the structure of the scraper 49 in this embodiment. The scraper 49 includes a bidirectional screw 491, a driving motor 492, a driving groove wheel 493, a transmission groove wheel 494 and a transmission belt 495; one end of the bidirectional screw 491 is rotatably arranged in the rectangular slide groove 421, and the other end passes through the inner square block 46 and penetrates the rectangular side rod 42 to extend outward, and a threaded through hole 461 compatible with the bidirectional screw 491 is opened on the inner square block 46, and a through circular hole 423 for the bidirectional screw 491 to penetrate and extend is opened on the rectangular side rod 42, the driving motor 492 is fixedly arranged on the supporting base plate 22 through the motor seat 496, the driving groove wheel 493 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating end of the driving motor 492, the transmission groove wheel 494 is fixedly sleeved on the protruding end of the bidirectional screw 491, and the transmission belt 495 is sleeved on the driving groove wheel 493 and the transmission groove wheel 494.

[0059] After the solar panel 23 is rotated for automatic sliding cleaning, the heating base 43 is started to heat the heating tube 44, and the synchronous heat-conducting rubber scraper 45 will follow the heating tube 44 to heat up. When the set temperature is reached, the drive motor 492 is started to operate and drive the bidirectional screw rod 491 to rotate. The rotating bidirectional screw rod 491 can drive the inner moment block 46 to slowly reciprocate in the rectangular groove 421 in cooperation with the threaded through hole 461 opened on the inner moment block 46, that is, drive the heat-conducting rubber scraper 45 to scrape the surface of the solar panel 23. The drive motor 492 rotates slowly, so that the heat-conducting rubber scraper 45 can melt the ice on the surface of the solar panel 23 while scraping it, and can also scrape the snow remaining on the solar panel 23 that has not slipped off.

[0060] The implementation principle of this embodiment is:

[0061] (1) Timing drive: When the set cleaning time arrives, the timing controller 31 will cut off the power to the side electromagnet 75 and the bottom electromagnet 76. The snow covered on the snow arc plate 82 will press the L drive seat 72 downward under the action of gravity, and the inner connecting rod 79 will drive the limit trapezoidal plate 61 to slide in the direction of the driving rack 51. The sliding distance depends on the thickness of the snow covered on the snow arc plate 82.

[0062] (2) Rotation control: The limit plate 61 is used to limit the rising distance of the driving rack 51 to control the rotation amplitude of the solar panel 23. After the solar panel 23 is driven to rotate, the snow covering the solar panel 23 will slide down under its own gravity, so as to automatically adjust the rotation angle of the solar panel 23 according to the thickness of the snow, thereby reducing unnecessary cleaning energy consumption.

[0063] (3) Reset vibration: When the driving cylinder 53 drives the driving rack 51 to descend and reset, the linkage rack 93 will drive the ratchet gear 97 to drive the rotating shaft 96 to rotate, and the rotation of the abutting gear 98 can intermittently abut against the circular rotating wheel 92. Each time it abuts against the circular rotating wheel 92, the L vibration rod 84 will be driven to rotate away from the L connecting rod 81 through the driving connecting rod 91. Under the continuous cooperation with the reset torsion spring 85, the effect of one end of the L vibration rod 84 abutting and hitting the L connecting rod 81 back and forth can be achieved, and then the snow arc plate 82 is vibrated by the L connecting rod 81 to achieve the purpose of clearing the snow covering the snow arc plate 82.

[0064] (4) Scraping and cleaning: After the solar panel 23 is rotated for automatic sliding cleaning, the heating base 43 is started to heat the heating tube 44, so that the heat-conducting rubber scraper 45 is heated up, and the driving motor 492 is started to operate the two-way screw 491 to rotate, driving the heat-conducting rubber scraper 45 to melt the ice on the surface of the solar panel 23 and scrape it away at the same time, and can also scrape away the snow remaining on the solar panel 23 that has not slipped off.

[0065] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
