Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of sand control, and in particular relates to a photovoltaic sand control robot. Background Art

[0002] At present, many companies and institutions are promoting photovoltaic sand control, because the desert has sufficient solar energy and can fully provide continuous and stable energy. Solar photovoltaic devices have the advantages of being clean, efficient, and adaptable to local conditions. They can adapt to the desert environment and make full use of the solar energy in the desert to generate electricity, realizing the efficient use of solar energy as a clean energy, so as to facilitate the work of sand control equipment. However, the current photovoltaic sand control adopts fixed-point wind and sand fixation, and cannot be automatically moved. In addition, the solar photovoltaic device operates outdoors for a long time, and the surface of the photovoltaic panel will be contaminated by sand and dust. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the solar photovoltaic panel regularly to ensure its efficiency in utilizing solar energy. In the process of cleaning the photovoltaic panel, if the wastewater generated is directly discharged, it will also cause a waste of water resources. If the wastewater generated by the cleaning of the photovoltaic panel can be combined with the planting of plants in the desert, it can not only improve the efficiency of water resources utilization, but also improve the efficiency of plant cultivation in the desert. Summary of the invention

[0005] The working process and principle of the above structure are as follows: The solar photovoltaic panel installed on the top of the photovoltaic sand control robot begins to receive sunlight and converts light energy into electrical energy. This electrical energy not only provides power support for the robot's own systems (such as control systems, power systems, operating systems, etc.), but can also be stored in energy storage batteries for emergency use at night or on cloudy days. When the voltage and current are detected to reach the set value, the robot automatically works (it can also be remotely controlled by humans); the robot receives task instructions (or pre-set instructions) from the background control center through the built-in wireless communication module. These instructions include specific parameters such as the coordinates of the operating area, sowing grass seeds, planting density and spacing, sprinkler irrigation volume, current position, and predetermined travel route; the signal processing module receives information for information processing and issues control instructions, thereby automatically adjusting the operation strategy and automatically running according to the set procedures and routes; during the process of moving, the positioning module and millimeter wave radar can be used to accurately move in the desert photovoltaic array and around the power station, and adjust the direction and route according to the predetermined route or according to the results of environmental perception; the robot starts sowing and sprinkler irrigation at the appropriate planting location The components move, seeds are released during sowing and water nozzles spray water, and finally, through secondary travel compaction and sprinkler irrigation, the seeds are ensured to be in close contact with the soil, which is conducive to rooting and germination; the water tank carried inside the vehicle body starts the water pump to automatically supply water to the sprinkler mechanism when needed.
