Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the photovoltaic intelligent robot industry, and in particular to a vehicle-mounted photovoltaic panel cleaning robot suitable for extreme environmental working conditions. Background Art

[0002] The photovoltaic industry uses solar panels to convert sunlight into electrical energy. Compared with existing thermal power, photovoltaic power generation can reduce the emission of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, has minimal impact on the environment, and is a powerful driving force for achieving the "dual carbon" goal. Globally, photovoltaic power generation has become the second largest power source after thermal power, and has become the main force on the road to energy transformation. In particular, the northwest region of my country is mostly desert areas, where the ground is often full of gullies and the soil is mostly sandy or clay. These factors may cause the robot to tilt or overturn during operation, making it difficult to ensure normal operation. As the use time of photovoltaic panels increases, a large amount of dust and gravel are easily accumulated on their surface, reducing the power generation efficiency of photovoltaic panels; some impurities such as bird droppings, feathers, and leaves will also accumulate on their surface. Although these impurities have relatively little impact on photovoltaic panels, long-term accumulation will also affect their power generation efficiency. Therefore, scientific cleaning and maintenance have become an inevitable requirement for the development of the photovoltaic industry. Through research, it is found that there are many problems with the existing vehicle-mounted photovoltaic panel cleaning robots used in the northwest region, mainly as follows:

[0003] 1. The existing cleaning robot brush heads in the industry are of single variety and function. Different photovoltaic power stations need to customize the brush heads of the cleaning robot cleaning devices according to the specifications of their photovoltaic panels, which greatly increases the cost of the cleaning robot and the cost of photovoltaic panel cleaning.

[0004] 2. When the existing cleaning robot is working, if there are potholes or uneven ground, the robot body will tilt or even overturn during the operation, causing the brush head on the upper part of the body to tilt and shake significantly, thereby causing the end cleaning device to scratch the photovoltaic panel or cause the spraying water pressure to be too high to damage the photovoltaic panel and cause hidden cracks.

[0005] 3. Existing cleaning robots mainly use water to clean photovoltaic panels. In areas with dry weather and water shortage, cleaning robots consume a lot of water during the cleaning process, and the waste water after cleaning cannot be recycled and reused, resulting in waste of water resources and high costs.

Four independent hydraulic devices control the extension and retraction of the hydraulic telescopic rod through sensors.

[0020] The wastewater receiving plate is connected with the hole of the wastewater collecting box through a matching shaft, and the control motor controls the movement of the crank rocker mechanism composed of the telescopic short arm and the telescopic long arm, thereby driving the opening and closing of the wastewater receiving plate.

[0021] The filter screen is installed on the chain pin shaft, and the chain is driven to rotate through the sprocket wheel to drive the filtered impurities to fall into the waste collection box.

[0022] The working process comprises the following steps:

[0023] S1: Preparation before cleaning:

[0024] S11: The length of the brush head is adjusted appropriately according to the width of the photovoltaic panel to be cleaned. The telescopic motor drives the screw to rotate, driving the slider to move downward and driving the telescopic rods at both ends to move in opposite directions in the vertical plane, thereby driving the left brush head shell and the right brush head shell to engage and change the overall length of the brush head to match the width of the photovoltaic panel to be cleaned;

[0025] S12: Before the cleaning robot starts to clean the photovoltaic panel, the mechanical arm places the left brush head housing and the right brush head housing at a suitable angle and distance above the photovoltaic panel;

[0026] S2: Operation of the balancing device of the cleaning robot (if the ground is flat, skip step S2):

[0027] S21: During the operation of the cleaning robot, the visual sensor predicts the road condition ahead of the cleaning robot in advance to prepare for the operation of the balance sensor. When the balance sensor detects that the road surface is rough, the balance device starts to operate;

[0028] S22: The balance sensor controls the operation of four independent hydraulic devices to drive the hydraulic telescopic rod to extend and retract so that the balance load-bearing plate is in a stable state, so that the cleaning device of the cleaning robot remains stable during operation and effectively avoids damage to the photovoltaic panel. The cross-axis universal joint increases the spatial freedom in the moving direction to avoid generating additional force and torque on the balance load-bearing plate.

[0029] S3: Operation of wastewater collection and filtration devices:

[0030] S31: When the cleaning robot starts working, the control motor rotates the mechanical short arm clockwise (seen from the left) to drive the mechanical long arm to move outward, so that the water receiving plate opens outward at a suitable water receiving angle and is located below the photovoltaic panel to better collect waste water after cleaning the photovoltaic panel. When the work is completed, the mechanical short arm rotates counterclockwise (seen from the left) to drive the mechanical long arm to move inward, so that the water receiving plate is retracted;

[0031] S32: When wastewater collection starts, the control motor drives the two sprockets to rotate, thereby driving the filter screen fixed on the long pin shaft above the chain to rotate, driving the debris falling on the filter screen to move to the waste collection box installed on the leftmost side of the water collection box;

[0032] S33: The filtered wastewater is controlled by the electronic control system and first transported to the wastewater sedimentation system for sedimentation, then transported to the precision filtration system to filter the sediment, then transported to the chemical decomposition system to chemically decompose substances such as cleaning fluid, and finally transported to the large water tank for cleaning photovoltaic panels.

[0033] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0034] 1. The function of automatically adjusting the length of the brush head of the cleaning device of the cleaning robot during operation is realized, which effectively avoids the disadvantage that the cleaning brush head of the existing cleaning robot needs to be customized according to the specifications of the photovoltaic panels in different photovoltaic sites, and reduces the manufacturing cost and the cost of cleaning the photovoltaic panels.

[0035] 2. The stability of the cleaning robot body during operation is achieved, so that the cleaning device of the cleaning robot remains stable during operation, effectively avoiding the brush head shaking and scratching the photovoltaic panel surface and the hidden cracks on the photovoltaic panel surface caused by excessive water pressure.

[0036] 3.

At the same time, it filters the coarse impurities in the wastewater, effectively avoiding the blockage caused by coarse impurities in the subsequent wastewater treatment process, and reducing the cost of wastewater treatment.
