Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of solar signal lights, and in particular to a traffic light based on a self-regulating photovoltaic module and a photovoltaic module support structure. Background Art

[0002] Photovoltaic module traffic lights are traffic lights that use solar energy to generate electricity. It converts sunlight into electrical energy through the photovoltaic modules installed on the traffic lights, supplying the electricity needed for the operation of the traffic lights. Traffic lights that rely on solar power generation can get rid of the constraints of wires and can be installed arbitrarily on sections of the road where the sun can shine. They are particularly suitable for newly built intersections and can meet the needs of emergency power outages, power restrictions and other emergencies. This type of traffic light has the advantages of energy saving and environmental protection, renewable energy utilization, and reduced dependence on traditional electricity. It is a transportation facility with broad application prospects. After the solar traffic light is placed and installed, its position is fixed, and as time goes by, the position of the sun moves, so the direction of sunlight is slowly changing, resulting in less sunlight absorbed by the solar panel, affecting the utilization rate of light.

[0003] For example, in the existing Chinese patent with the publication number CN218124611U, a solar road traffic light is disclosed, which includes a traffic light body, a shell is provided on one side of the traffic light body, a connecting mechanism is installed on the top of the shell, and one side of the top of the connecting mechanism is connected to one side of the solar panel, the connecting mechanism includes a support seat, the bottoms of the two support seats are fixedly installed on the top of the shell, and a rotating shaft is movably connected between the two support seats, the outer wall of one side of the rotating shaft is meshed and connected with a movable seat, the outer wall of one side of the movable seat is connected to the connecting seat, and connecting blocks are fixedly installed on both sides of the connecting seat, and the connecting blocks are connected to the back side of the solar panel by bolts. Through the above-mentioned existing technology, the connecting parts can be driven to move by the rotation of the rotating shaft under the drive of the motor, thereby driving the solar panel to adjust the angle, so as to expand the energy absorption range of the solar panel, and convert the absorbed solar energy into electrical energy and store it inside the battery.

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

[0005] When the above-mentioned prior art is used, the motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate, the rotating shaft drives the movable seat to rotate, and the movable seat drives the connecting seat and the connecting block to rotate, so as to drive the solar panel to adjust the angle, thereby expanding the energy absorption range of the solar panel. The motor of the above-mentioned device can only drive the solar panel to adjust the angle in one direction when it is running. Although it increases the utilization rate of light to a certain extent, due to the limited adjustable angle and the single adjustment direction, when the sun moves to the extreme angle that the above-mentioned device can adjust, there will still be a long period of time when it cannot meet the light at the best angle, resulting in the poor illumination angle and insufficient light utilization during the period from the sun rising to the sun setting.

[0006] Secondly, when heavy rainfall hits the tilted solar panels, a large amount of rainwater will be guided down through the solar panels, forming a water curtain on the traffic lights, which will further block the view of the traffic lights, causing inconvenience to vehicles passing through the intersection and increasing safety hazards.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0041] The following is combined with Figure 1-Figure 15 This application is described in further detail.

[0042] The embodiment of the present application discloses a traffic light and a photovoltaic module supporting structure based on a self-adjusting photovoltaic module, which can adjust the angle of the solar panel on the traffic light in multiple directions to fully increase the utilization rate of sunlight, and can centrally guide the discharge of rainwater on the solar panel when it rains to avoid the formation of a water curtain blocking the view of the traffic light.

[0043] The embodiment of the present application provides a traffic light based on a self-adjusting photovoltaic module to solve the problem in the prior art that the solar panels can be adjusted at a limited angle and in a single direction, resulting in insufficient light utilization, and the formation of a water curtain through the guidance of the solar panels in the rain that blocks the view of the traffic light.

[0044] Example 1: Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the present application provides a traffic light based on a self-adjusting photovoltaic module, including a mobile seat 1 and a round pillar 11 vertically mounted on the mobile seat 1, a signal light 12 and a solar panel 13 for powering the signal light 12 are arranged on the round pillar 11, and it should be noted that the bottom side of the solar panel 13 is provided with a wire connected to the battery in the mobile seat 1 through the inside of the round pillar 11, and the electric energy generated by the solar panel 13 can be stored in the battery through the wire, and then the electric energy is transmitted to the signal light 12 through the battery. Since this is a known technology, it will not be described in detail here, and the relevant internal structure is not shown in the figure. An adjustment device 2 for supporting the solar panel 13 is provided at the upper end of the round pillar 11; the adjustment device 2 can be used to bidirectionally adjust the angle of the solar panel 13 to turn and cater to the light in different time periods, so that the solar panel 13 can always cater to the light at the best angle from the time when the sun rises to the time when the sun sets, and fully increase the utilization rate of the sunlight.

[0045] The adjustment device 2 includes an assembly box 21 mounted on the upper end of the round pillar 11, and the assembly box 21 is fixedly connected to the round pillar 11. The assembly box 21 is symmetrically provided with arc plates 22, and a slot disc 23 is installed between the two arc plates 22 for limited rotation. The slot disc 23 can be forced to rotate between the two arc plates 22 and will not separate from the two arc plates 22; a support rod seat 24 is vertically installed in the middle of the slot disc 23, and the solar panel 13 is set at the end of the support rod seat 24 through a triangular seat 25. The assembly box 21 is provided with a rotation control mechanism 3 for rotating and adjusting the solar panel 13, which is used to adjust the steering and catering angle of the solar panel 13.

[0046] It should be noted that when the mobile seat 1 is placed and installed at the intersection, the solar panel 13 needs to be tilted toward the east in the initial state. Under the operation of the switching control mechanism 3, the solar panel 13 will be gradually driven to turn southward over time, and at the same time, the angle of the solar panel 13 to cater to the light will be adjusted until the sun sets; from morning to night, the solar panel 13 can always face the sun, and the different heights of the sun in different time periods can also adjust the angle of the solar panel 13 to cater to the light.

[0047] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, specifically, the control mechanism 3 includes a torsion spring 31, a through-hole column 32 and a driving unit 4; the triangular seat 25 and the support rod seat 24 are rotatably connected through two inner rods 33, and the torsion spring 31 is sleeved on the inner rod 33. It should be noted that the triangular seat 25 and the solar panel 13 are fixedly connected, and the torsion spring 31 always has a driving force to drive the solar panel 13 to rotate to one side; the through-hole column 32 is vertically installed in the middle of the lower side of the slot disk 23, and the through-hole column 32 and the slot disk 23 are fixedly connected. The driving unit 4 is arranged in the assembly box 21, and is used to drive the through-hole column 32 to rotate, and can also drive the solar panel 13 to rotate on the support rod seat 24, so as to adjust the angle to cater to the light.

[0048] Reference Figure 5 As shown, considering the need to drive the solar panel 13 to adjust the angle in multiple directions, the drive unit 4 includes a servo motor 41, a transmission gear 42 and a push-and-pull adjustment component 5; the servo motor 41 is installed in the assembly box 21. It should be noted that the servo motor 41 is set to rotate a certain angle at intervals. In this embodiment, the servo motor 41 is preferably set to rotate a total of 180 degrees from 6 am to 6 pm, and then rotate 180 degrees. The rotating end of the servo motor 41 is sleeved with a driving gear 43, and the transmission gear 42 is sleeved on the through-hole column 32 and meshed with the driving gear 43. When the servo motor 41 is running, the through-hole column 32 can be driven to rotate through the meshing of the driving gear 43 and the transmission gear 42, that is, the slot disc 23 and the solar panel 13 installed above the slot disc 23 are driven to rotate. The push-and-pull adjustment component 5 is arranged on the slot disc 23, and is used to adjust the angle of the solar panel 13 on the support rod seat 24 when the slot disc 23 is driven to rotate.

[0049] After the mobile seat 1 is placed on the intersection, the solar panel 13 is in an inclined state in the initial state. The solar panel 13 in the initial inclined state needs to be set to face the east. Then, during the operation of the servo motor 41, the slot disc 23 and the solar panel 13 above can be driven to rotate slowly to the south. When it reaches noon, the solar panel 13 is driven to face the south at ninety degrees. Then, after an afternoon, at six o'clock in the evening, the solar panel 13 is driven to face the west. Finally, at night, the rotation of the servo motor 41 can drive the solar panel 13 to reset.

[0050] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, in order to be able to adjust the angle of the solar panel 13 to cater to the light during the process of the solar panel 13 being driven to turn, the push adjustment component 5 includes a U-shaped fixed seat 51 installed on the upper side of the slot disk 23; the torsion spring 31 always has a driving force to drive the solar panel 13 to rotate to one side, that is, to rotate in the direction of the U-shaped fixed seat 51. The upper limit position of the U-shaped fixed seat 51 is inserted and slidably provided with a T-shaped push rod 52, and a square through hole 511 is provided on the U-shaped fixed seat 51 for the T-shaped push rod 52 to slide and install, and a square groove 231 adapted to the T-shaped push rod 52 is provided on the slot disk 23. When the T-shaped push rod 52 is subjected to force, it can slide vertically upward or downward on the U-shaped fixed seat 51.

[0051] Reference Figures 8 to 10 As shown, since the T-shaped push rod 52 needs to be driven to slide vertically upward and downward, an L-shaped support rod 53 is installed on the lower side of the slot disk 23 below the U-shaped fixed seat 51. The L-shaped support rod 53 is fixedly connected to the slot disk 23. When the slot disk 23 is subjected to force and rotates, it can synchronously drive the L-shaped support rod 53 to rotate in the assembly box 21; a reciprocating screw rod 54 is rotatably provided on the L-shaped support rod 53, which penetrates the slot disk 23 and rotates into the T-shaped push rod 52, and a round rod hole 232 is provided on the slot disk 23, which is connected to the square groove 231 for the reciprocating screw rod 54 to penetrate, and an internal threaded hole 521 adapted to the reciprocating screw rod 54 is threadedly provided at the bottom end of the T-shaped push rod 52. The reciprocating screw rod 54 is subjected to force and rotates, and can drive the T-shaped push rod 52 to slide vertically upward and downward in the U-shaped fixed seat 51 in cooperation with the internal threaded hole 521 provided at the bottom end of the T-shaped push rod 52. An arc-shaped tooth plate 55 is provided on the inner wall of the assembly box 21 , and a ratchet gear 56 meshing with the arc-shaped tooth plate 55 is sleeved on the reciprocating screw rod 54 .

[0052] When the servo motor 41 drives the slotted disc 23 and the solar panel 13 to rotate southward, the ratchet gear 56 and the arc-shaped tooth plate 55 are meshed to drive the reciprocating screw 54 to rotate, thereby driving the T-shaped push rod 52 to slide vertically upward. Since the slotted disc 23 rotates slowly under the drive of the servo motor 41, the reciprocating screw 54 rotates slowly, causing the T-shaped push rod 52 to gradually slide upward and contact the bottom side of the solar panel 13, thereby driving the solar panel 13 to gradually rotate upward, so that as time goes by, the solar panel 13 adjusts the direction, the sun gradually rises, and the angle of the solar panel 13 to meet the light is also gradually adjusted. After noon, the solar panel 13 turns to face south, and the T-shaped push rod 52 pushes the solar panel 13 to be in a parallel state to meet the sunlight directly above.

[0053] In the afternoon, the sun slowly sets to the west, and the height is also slowly decreasing. When the solar panel 13 continues to turn to the west, due to the characteristics of the reciprocating screw 54, the reciprocating screw 54 that continues to rotate will drive the T-shaped push rod 52 to slide vertically downward and reset. Because under the action of the torsion spring 31, the solar panel 13 will always have a driving force to rotate in the direction of the U-shaped fixed seat 51, that is, the bottom side of the solar panel 13 will always be in conflict with the upper end of the T-shaped push rod 52, and when the T-shaped push rod 52 moves downward, the solar panel 13 will also rotate downward to reset to meet the angle of the sun when it descends. During the period from the sun rising to the sun setting, the solar panel 13 constantly adjusts its direction and the angle of the light to meet the light at the best angle, so as to fully increase the utilization rate of the sun's light.

[0054] When the servo motor 41 rotates to drive the slot disk 23 to rotate and drive the L-shaped support rod 53 to reset, due to the characteristics of the ratchet gear 56, although the ratchet gear 56 is meshed with the arc-shaped tooth plate 55, it cannot drive the reciprocating screw 54 to rotate. In the process of resetting and turning the solar panel 13, the T-shaped push rod 52 will not be driven by the reciprocating screw 54, and the solar panel 13 will be adjusted in an unnecessary angle.

[0055] Reference Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, in order to prevent rainwater from washing on the solar panel 13 and forming a water curtain when it rains, thereby blocking the sight of the signal light 12, a guide assembly 6 is also provided on the solar panel 13. The guide assembly 6 includes an enclosure frame 61 installed on the upper side of the solar panel 13, a collection box 62 is provided on one side of the solar panel 13, and a rectangular opening 611 connected to the collection box 62 is opened on one side of the enclosure frame 61. When it rains, the rainwater washing on the solar panel 13 will be collected by the enclosure frame 61 and enter the collection box 62 through the rectangular opening 611, and will not fall from the inclined edge or surroundings of the solar panel 13 to form a water curtain, thereby blocking the sight of observing the signal light 12.

[0056] Reference Fig.13 As shown, a hanging rod seat 63 is installed at the bottom side of the solar panel 13, and a lower hanging rod 65 is rotatably arranged on the hanging rod seat 63 through a middle round rod 64, and a counterweight block 66 is arranged at the lower end of the lower hanging rod 65. Due to the installation of the counterweight block 66, when the solar panel 13 is rotated upward or downward at the adjustment angle, the lower hanging rod 65 will always be in a vertical state.

[0057] Reference Fig.13 and Fig.14As shown, the bottom of the collection box 62 is connected and installed with a foldable hose 67, and one end of the foldable hose 67 away from the collection box 62 is arranged through the counterweight 66, and the collection box 62 is provided with a discharge hole 621 connected with the foldable hose 67, and the counterweight 66 is provided with a connection hole 661 for the foldable hose 67 to penetrate. One end of the foldable hose 67 is fixedly connected to the counterweight 66. The servo motor 41 is always in operation to ensure that the solar panel 13 can continue to meet the light at the best angle after the rain, resulting in the solar panel 13 still adjusting its angle when it rains.

[0058] When the solar panel 13 is rotated to adjust the angle, the folding hose 67 will be stretched under the action of the counterweight 66, and one end of the folding hose 67 will always remain facing the circular pillar 11, ensuring that when the solar panel 13 is rotated and adjusted, rainwater can still be discharged to the circular pillar 11 through the folding hose 67, avoiding the rainwater from being guided by the solar panel 13 on the outside of the signal light 12 in the shape of a water curtain and blocking the line of sight of the signal light 12.

[0059] Embodiment 2: The embodiment of the present application provides a photovoltaic module support structure, including the content of the traffic light based on the self-adjusting photovoltaic module in the above embodiment 1. The details will not be repeated here.

[0060] Example 3: Reference Fig.15 As shown, on the basis of Example 1 and Example 2, in order to cooperate with the guide component 6, to guide the rainwater on the solar panel 13 to be discharged in a concentrated manner during rainfall and to use the discharged rainwater to increase the weight of the mobile seat 1 and the circular pillar 11, so as to further enhance the stability of the overall structure in rainwater and reduce the movement of the mobile seat 1 due to external factors such as rainwater and wind, a stabilizing member 7 is also provided on the circular pillar 11. The stabilizing member 7 includes a collecting plate 71 fixedly mounted on the circular pillar 11, and the collecting plate 71 is located below the discharge port of the folding hose 67. The lower side of the collecting plate 71 is connected to four vertically installed water storage pipes 72, and the collecting plate 71 is respectively provided with four round through holes 711 connected to the four water storage pipes 72, and the water storage pipe 72 is penetrated by a drainage hole 721.

[0061] Part of the rainwater discharged through the folding hose 67 can flow into the collecting plate 71, and enter the four water storage pipes 72 through the four round through holes 711 on the collecting plate 71, so as to increase the weight of the round support 11. After a certain amount of rainwater is stored, the rainwater that subsequently enters the water storage pipe 72 can be discharged outward through the drainage hole 721.

[0062] The implementation principle of this embodiment is:

[0063] (1) Equipment placement: After the mobile base 1 is placed on the intersection, the placement angle of the mobile base 1 needs to be adjusted so that the initially tilted solar panel 13 is set toward the east.

[0064] (2) Steering adjustment: The servo motor 41 can drive the slot disc 23 and the solar panel 13 to rotate slowly toward the south. At noon, the solar panel 13 is driven to face the south at 90 degrees. At 6 o'clock in the evening, the solar panel 13 is driven to face the west. Finally, after a night, the servo motor 41 rotates to drive the solar panel 13 to reset. The direction of the solar panel 13 can be automatically adjusted in different time periods.

[0065] (3) Angle adjustment: When the servo motor 41 drives the slotted disc 23 and the solar panel 13 to rotate, the meshing of the ratchet gear 56 and the arc-shaped tooth plate 55 can drive the reciprocating screw 54 to rotate, so as to drive the T-shaped push rod 52 to slide vertically upward, so that the solar panel 13 can gradually rotate upward; in the afternoon, when the sun slowly sets in the west, the reciprocating screw 54 that continues to rotate will drive the T-shaped push rod 52 to slide vertically downward to reset, and the solar panel 13 will rotate downward under the drive of the torsion spring 31 to meet the angle of sunlight when it is descending. This achieves the effect of meeting the sunlight at the best angle and fully increasing the utilization rate of sunlight.

[0066] (4) Rainwater discharge: When it rains, rainwater on the solar panel 13 will be collected by the enclosure frame 61 and enter the collection box 62, and then discharged to the round pillar 11 through the folding hose 67, so as to prevent the rainwater from forming a water curtain under the guidance of the solar panel 13 and blocking the sight of the signal light 12. Part of the rainwater flows into the collection plate 71 and enters the four water storage pipes 72, which can increase the weight of the round pillar 11 and further enhance the stability of the overall structure in rainwater.

[0067] The embodiment of the present application also provides a photovoltaic module support structure, which supports the solar panel 13 by adopting the above-mentioned contents.

[0068] 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.
