In the scenario where the photovoltaic modules are installed at an inclined angle, the existing cleaning equipment is heavy and bulky, and requires at least two people to carry it.

[0046] Preferably, the brush cleaning assembly 52 further comprises a water pipe 528 fixed on the upper side of the cover body 523 away from the support rod 1, a plurality of first nozzles 529 arranged in sequence along the length direction of the water pipe 528, and a plurality of wind shields 5210 arranged above the plurality of first nozzles 529.

[0047] It also includes a water source assembly 7, which includes a water bag hook fixing plate 71 fixed on the side of the second walking mechanism 3, a hook 72 fixed at the bottom of the water bag hook fixing plate 71 and used to hang a water bag or a water tank, and a water pump 73 fixed on the side of the water bag hook fixing plate 71, and the water pump 73 is connected to the power control box 6.

[0048] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: the cleaning personnel carry the robot accessories to the photovoltaic panel to be cleaned and assemble them. The length of the support rod 1 is determined according to the specific width of the photovoltaic panel. When assembling the support rod 1, the power cord inside the lightweight hollow tube 10 is spliced together, and the specific position of the second walking mechanism 3 is adjusted. After the assembly is completed, the water tank is filled with water and hung on the hook 72, and connected to the water pump 73 through a water pipe, or the water pump 73 is directly connected to an external water pipe. After setting the various parameters of the robot through a computer, the cleaning mechanism is moved to the zero position (the position of the top or bottom layer of the photovoltaic panel), and the robot starts to clean automatically. The first walking mechanism 2 and the second walking mechanism 3 drive the robot to move at a uniform speed along the lateral direction of the photovoltaic panel, and the first nozzle 529 is used to spray water to wet the surface of the photovoltaic panel. The DC motor 527 drives the brush roller 526 to rotate to clean the surface of the photovoltaic panel. After the front group of brush rollers 526 are cleaned, the second nozzle sprays water again, and the rear group of brush rollers 526 are cleaned again. The visual locator 525 is used for visual positioning. When the robot completes the first layer cleaning of the photovoltaic panel, the translation mechanism 4 drives the cleaning mechanism 5 to translate along the axial direction of the support rod 1 to the second layer cleaning position, and the robot moves in the opposite direction and repeats the above cleaning action until the cleaning of the entire photovoltaic panel is completed.
[0049] To solve the problem of practicality of outdoor photovoltaic cleaning equipment, the weight of the equipment needs to be greatly reduced to a level that a worker can easily carry. Therefore, the cleaning method needs to be changed from the original whole-piece cleaning to layered cleaning. By reducing the size of the equipment and implementing the cleaning strategy in steps, the weight of the equipment and the volume of the equipment can be greatly reduced. However, while making a new change in the cleaning operation method, it is necessary to face the fact that the structural strength of the new equipment is significantly different from that of the existing bulky equipment. When cleaning two layers of parallel photovoltaic modules, the new solution's equipment skeleton, which is made of multiple sections of lightweight rods, is 5 meters long. Both ends of the new solution need to be driven and walked along the frame of the photovoltaic module to complete the cleaning of the photovoltaic module at the same time. A 5-meter-long, elastically deformable long rod needs to walk a long distance in a straight line along the photovoltaic array under the drive of the two ends. It is necessary to use the most cutting-edge machine vision + depth recognition + semantic recognition to actively track the arrangement direction of the photovoltaic array and determine the layer where the cleaning device is located.
[0050] In order to solve the problem that most of the current photovoltaic cleaning at tilted angles does not use clean water, but only sweeps the dust. It is necessary to use an external water tank and a precisely designed water distribution solution to solve the problem of wet cleaning of photovoltaic modules with as little self-provided water as possible. Only by insisting on the immersion + wiping cleaning at a certain periodic interval can it be ensured that the photovoltaic modules will not accumulate and cannot be eradicated in the long-term outdoor operation scenario.
[0051] The robot of the present invention is light in overall weight, can be carried and operated by a single person, is convenient to disassemble and transport, has a high degree of automation, and the operator only needs to complete the actions of adding water, changing batteries and changing positions, thus saving manpower and material resources. The robot can be applied to the cleaning of photovoltaic panels of different widths, has strong adaptability, and can clean all photovoltaic panels with a length of no more than 5 meters in the vertical direction. By setting a translation mechanism, the photovoltaic panels can be cleaned in layers, which greatly reduces the overall volume of the robot. Water and electricity are supplied by retractable coil spring pipelines, which saves space and weight and simplifies the structure. The material of the lightweight hollow tube is carbon fiber, and the support tube, water pipe, hollow tube body, etc. are made of carbon fiber material. Under the premise of ensuring strength and elastic deformation, the overall weight of the robot can be greatly reduced, which is suitable for promotion and use.
