Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of blind technology, and more particularly to a solar-powered smart window that converts diffused light. Background Technology

[0002] Direct sunlight indoors can cause glare, affecting the user experience. Generally, a diffuse reflection layer is installed on the inside of the louver panel of the blinds to improve the incident direct light. At the same time, solar panels can be installed to utilize solar energy.

[0003] Some modern louver systems do indeed have the ability to adjust individual louvers. This is usually achieved through an electric or automated system, allowing users to make precise adjustments based on the position of each louver and their lighting needs.

[0004] In some motorized venetian blind systems, each venetian blind has its own independent motor or adjustment mechanism. Users can select and control the angle of individual blinds, rotating them to a specific position via remote control, wall switch, or smart home system. This allows users to customize the direction and intensity of light as needed.

[0005] Some advanced louver systems are automated, using light and temperature sensors to monitor environmental conditions and automatically adjust the angle of the louvers. This system allows each louver to respond independently to current light and temperature conditions, providing optimal visibility, lighting, and temperature control.

[0006] However, in lower-end blinds, the blinds are usually continuously controlled, making it inconvenient to control the blinds individually, and the control modes are not convenient enough. Summary of the Invention

[0007] This invention provides a solar-powered smart window that converts diffused light, which solves the shortcomings of existing low-end blinds, which generally require continuous control of the blinds, making it inconvenient to control the blinds individually and lacking convenient control modes.

[0008] This invention provides the following technical solution:

[0009] A solar-powered smart window for converting diffused light includes a louvered body with multiple louvered panels rotatably mounted within it. One end of each louvered panel passes through a transmission cavity and connects to a rotating shaft. A first gear is fixed on the rotating shaft. An upwardly inclined groove assembly is fixed within the transmission cavity, and a movable gear is installed within the groove assembly. The upper curvature of the groove assembly matches the tooth curvature of the first gear. A limiting member is installed within the groove assembly to limit the lower limit position of the movable gear. The end of the groove assembly is the upper limit position of the movable gear. When the movable gear is at its upper limit position, it simultaneously meshes with two adjacent first gears. The movable gear, at its upper limit position, engages with the lower... When the louvers are in the limited position, they only mesh with the first gear at the bottom. A positioning element is installed on one side of the shaft end to limit the rotation of the shaft. The positioning element controls the multiple louvers to return to their original positions. When the positioning element is released, all the louvers flip downwards under the action of gravity to complete the closed state. When the positioning element is positioned, it can position the louvers after they have been rotated. The positioning element resists the gravity of the louvers. Through the transmission connection of the first gear and the movable gear, when the louvers flip upwards, all the upper louvers will flip upwards together, thereby adjusting the angle. When the sun changes, only some of the louvers can be closed without affecting the other louvers.

[0010] A photovoltaic panel is installed on the concave side of the louver, and a diffuse reflection layer is installed on the convex side of the louver. The photovoltaic panel is electrically connected to the charging port of the charging controller, the discharging port of the charging controller is connected to the battery, and the output port of the battery or the output port of the charging controller is connected to the electrical device. The photovoltaic panel on the window can be used to charge mobile devices such as mobile phones, tablets, and laptops. The photovoltaic panel can also be used to provide power to LED lights near the window for lighting effects. Some small electronic devices, such as timers, temperature sensors, and fans, can also be powered by the photovoltaic panel on the window. Electronic curtain systems can use the photovoltaic panel on the window to collect energy to power the switch and control motor to achieve automatic opening and closing functions. Some smart home devices, such as security cameras, access control systems, and smart door locks, can be powered by the photovoltaic panel on the window. By setting the diffuse reflection layer, the incident direct light can be converted into diffused light, which is softer. The inclined groove assembly includes an inclined connecting rod fixed in the mounting cavity. A strip groove is formed in the middle of the connecting rod. A screw is threaded through the end of the connecting rod. An elastic element is fixed to the end of the screw. A limiting plate for limiting is fixed to the elastic element. The lower limit position of the movable gear can be finely adjusted by the screw. By setting the gear ratio between the first gear and the movable gear, the displacement loss caused by the first gear rotating upward and driving the movable gear upward is reduced. By finely adjusting the lower limit position of the movable gear, the final louver rotation angle is made approximately the same as the initial louver rotation angle.

[0011] One end of the movable gear is fixed with a connecting post, which extends laterally through the strip groove. A limiting end is fixed at the end of the connecting post. The connecting post is adapted to the size of the strip groove, so that the movable gear and the strip groove only move in the length direction of the strip groove, so that the movable gear can always smoothly mesh with and disengage from the first gear.

[0012] The distance between the limiting end and the movable gear is adapted to the thickness of the inclined connecting rod to prevent the movable gear from displacing in other directions, so that the movable gear only moves along the strip groove.

[0013] The positioning component includes a pressure-bearing end at the end of the rotating shaft. The pressure-bearing end includes a fixed seat that is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft. Multiple elastic holding components are installed on one side of the rotating shaft end. Switches for controlling the extension and retraction of the elastic holding components are also installed between the elastic holding components. By setting the switches, all rotating shafts can be limited or contacted. When limited, the louvers can maintain their angle after rotation against the force of gravity. After contacting the limit, the louvers can return to their original position under their own weight.

[0014] It should be understood that the above general description and the following detailed description are merely exemplary and do not limit the invention.

[0015] In this invention, multiple louvers are controlled to return to their original positions by a positioning component. When the positioning component is released, all louvers flip downwards under gravity to close. When the positioning component is in position, it can position the rotated louvers. By resisting the gravity of the louvers through the positioning component, and through the transmission connection of the first gear and the movable gear, when the louvers flip upwards, all the upper louvers will flip upwards together, thereby adjusting the angle. When the sun changes, only some of the louvers can be closed without affecting the other louvers.

[0016] Photovoltaic panels can power some small electronic devices, and a diffuse reflection layer can convert the incident sunlight into diffused light, making the light softer.

[0017] The lower limit position of the movable gear can be finely adjusted by the screw. By setting the gear ratio between the first gear and the movable gear, the displacement loss caused by the movable gear moving upward when the first gear rotates upward can be reduced. By finely adjusting the lower limit position of the movable gear, the final louver rotation angle is made approximately the same as the initial louver rotation angle. Attached Figure Description

[0030] Example

[0031] Reference Figures 1-5 A solar-powered smart window for converting diffused light includes a louver body 1, with multiple louver panels 2 rotatably mounted inside the louver body 1. Photovoltaic panels 22 are mounted on the concave surfaces of the louver panels 2, and a diffuse reflection layer 23 is mounted on the convex surfaces of the louver panels 2. The photovoltaic panels 22 are electrically connected to the charging port of a charging controller, the discharging port of the charging controller is connected to a battery, and the output port of the battery or the output port of the charging controller is connected to an electrical device. The photovoltaic panels 22 are installed on the louver panels 2 of the window, ensuring they receive sufficient sunlight. The cables of the photovoltaic panels 22 are connected to a charging controller, which typically has charging and discharging cable interfaces. The photovoltaic panels 22 are connected to the charging port of the charging controller, and the discharging port of the charging controller is connected to the battery, ensuring the correct polarity of the connections. To prevent battery damage, connect the cable from the battery output port or the output port of the charging controller to the electrical equipment, such as a charger, LED light, or other electronic devices. Ensure that the electrical equipment can adapt to the voltage and current provided by the battery or charging controller. According to the charging controller's instruction manual, set appropriate parameters, such as charging and discharging voltage limits and overload protection, to ensure that the system operates within a safe range. The diffuse reflection layer 23 can scatter sunlight when it passes through the louver 2, dispersing the light into multiple directions. This helps to reduce or eliminate glare caused by direct light and make indoor light softer and more uniform, improving visual comfort. The diffuse reflection layer 23 can improve the uniformity of light, avoid strong shadows and obvious light spots, provide more uniform lighting, and reduce eye fatigue.

[0032] One end of the louvered plate 2 penetrates into the transmission cavity 3 and connects to the rotating shaft 4. The rotating shaft 4 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the transmission cavity 3 via the lug 5. A first gear 8 is fixed on the rotating shaft 4. An upwardly inclined groove assembly is fixed inside the transmission cavity 3. A movable gear 7 is installed inside the groove assembly. The upper arc of the groove assembly matches the tooth arc of the first gear 8. A limiting member for limiting the lower limit position of the movable gear 7 is installed inside the groove assembly. The groove assembly includes an inclined connecting rod 6 fixed in the mounting cavity. A strip groove 15 is opened in the middle of the connecting rod. The end of the strip groove 15 is arc-shaped. The arc shape at the end of the strip groove 15 is concentric with the first gear 8. Therefore, when the movable gear 7 moves at the arc-shaped end, it can... The connecting rod is always engaged with the first gear 8, which is flush with it. The end of the connecting rod is connected to the screw 12 by a thread. One end of the screw 12 is fixed with an operating handle 13, and the other end of the screw 12 is fixed with an elastic element 11. The elastic element 11 is fixed with a limiting plate 10 for limiting the position. The limiting element consists of the operating handle 13, the screw 12, the elastic element 11 and the limiting plate 10. By rotating the screw 12, the position of the limiting plate 10 in the strip groove 15 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the lower limit position of the movable gear 7. By finely adjusting the lower limit position of the movable gear 7, and matching the gear ratio between the first gear 8 and the movable gear 7, the rotation angle of the adjacent louvers 2 after the transmission structure is transmitted is approximately the same.

[0033] A connecting post is fixed at one end of the movable gear 7. The connecting post passes through the strip groove 15 laterally. A limiting end 9 is fixed at the end of the connecting post. The dimensions of the connecting post and the strip groove 15 are adapted. The distance between the limiting end 9 and the movable gear 7 is adapted to the thickness of the inclined connecting rod 6.

[0034] The end of the inclined slot assembly is at the upper limit position of the movable gear 7. When the movable gear 7 is at the upper limit position, it simultaneously meshes with the two adjacent first gears 8. When the movable gear 7 is between the upper limit position and the lower limit position, it only meshes with the lower first gear 8. A positioning component for limiting the rotation of the rotating shaft 4 is installed on one side of the end of the shaft 4.

[0035] The positioning component includes a bearing end 14 at the end of the rotating shaft 4. The bearing end 14 includes a fixed seat that is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 4. Multiple elastic holding components are installed on one side of the end of the rotating shaft 4. Switches for controlling the extension and retraction of the elastic holding components are also installed between the elastic holding components. The elastic holding component includes a mounting seat 20 fixed to the side wall of the transmission cavity 3. A telescopic rod 21 is installed inside the mounting seat 20. A holding end 17 is fixed at the end of the telescopic rod 21. A return spring 19 is installed between the holding end 17 and the mounting seat 20. An operating plate 18 is also installed between the return spring 19 and the holding end 17. All return springs 19 are held on the operating plate 18. The operating plate 18 is held on the inner side of the holding end 17. The return springs 19 are sleeved on the outside of the telescopic rod 21. A wear-resistant layer 16 is fixed on the outer side of the holding end 17.

[0036] The working principle of this application is as follows:

[0037] In this application, when the louver 2 is flipped upward, it will cause all the panels above the louver 2 to flip upward in unison. However, when the louver 2 is flipped downward, it will not cause the adjacent louver 2 to rotate. Thus, the louver 2 can be adjusted individually. Furthermore, by controlling the positioning component, the louver 2 can be returned to the fully closed state, and all the louver 2 can be readjusted.

[0038] The above are merely specific embodiments of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the scope of the claims.
