[0023] The following is a more clear and explicit description of the actual application scenarios of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that this case obviously only mentions a part of the embodiments of the present invention and does not represent all usage scenarios.

[0024] The present invention relates to a photovoltaic energy storage vending machine, comprising a vending machine body 1 and a power generation energy storage bin 2.

[0025] The vending machine body 1 is formed by modifying the energy supply system of a conventional vending machine. The energy supply system is connected to the power generation and energy storage bin 2. A control panel 10 and an output charging socket 9 are provided in the front non-display window area.

[0026] The power generation and energy storage compartment 2 is installed on the top of the vending machine body 1, connected to the solar panel 3 and the panel drive system 4, with a cavity inside, which accommodates the energy storage battery PACK5, the liquid cooling system 6, the power inverter 7 and the control system 8.

[0027] In one embodiment, the device is placed in a scenic area with a flat ground. When the weather is good, the solar panel 3 is unfolded to perform photovoltaic power generation. The generated electricity is first supplied to various electrical equipment, and the excess electricity is stored in the energy storage battery PACK5 for use when the subsequent photovoltaic power generation is insufficient.

[0028] In one embodiment, the device is placed in an uneven outdoor environment, and the spring floating support column 11 at the bottom of the device automatically floats and levels. If the device is still not stable enough at this time, the device can be fixed using ground nails or other equipment using auxiliary fixing holes 12 to prevent the device from tipping over.

[0029] In one embodiment, if the equipment fails or the goods are insufficient, the information is transmitted to the control system 8 through the sensor, and the information is transmitted to the merchant control center through the network equipment to remind the merchant to restock or repair.

[0030] In one embodiment, when the sensor detects that the weather is bad, the solar panel 3 can be stored to prevent the bad weather from causing damage to the equipment.

[0031] In one embodiment, the device can control the power output through the control panel 10, and output electrical energy to the outside through the output charging socket 9 to supply electrical energy to the user's electrical equipment.

[0032] The working process of the present invention is:

[0033] The outdoor photovoltaic energy storage vending machine is placed at an appropriate location, and mechanical fixation can be performed through the auxiliary fixing holes 12 according to the placement stability.

[0034] After the equipment is fixed, the goods are replenished and the equipment is started through the control panel 10.

[0035] After the device is started, the control system 8 controls the solar panel 3 to start working or keep it in the storage state according to the signal detected by the sensor. When the solar panel 3 is working, the electricity generated by photovoltaic power generation is first converted into AC power by the power inverter 7 to supply the electrical appliances in the device for normal operation, and the excess electricity is conducted into the battery cells in the energy storage battery PACK5 for storage, so as to be used when the photovoltaic power generation is insufficient in the future.
