The hydraulic telescopic rod is extended to move the cleaning member on the surface of the solar panel to scrape off the dust on the surface of the solar panel, thereby preventing the dust from covering and affecting the power generation of the solar panel.

[0021] Furthermore, the change in the current in the coil is used to determine the amount of dust on the surface of the solar panel. Only when the amount of dust covering the surface of the solar panel makes the current in the coil lower than the set value, the cleaning element can be used to clean the solar panel, thereby avoiding scratches on the surface of the solar panel caused by frequent cleaning of the solar panel.

[0022] Furthermore, by cooperating with the obstruction plate and the air spring to apply movement resistance to the magnetic metal block, and cooperating with the magnetic force of the annular magnet, it is prevented that after the dust on the surface of the solar panel is half cleaned, the current generated by the solar panel generates electricity to increase the magnetic force of the electromagnet, causing the magnetic metal block to reset, so that the solar panel is not completely cleaned, thereby achieving the effect of delaying the reset of the magnetic metal block.

[0023] Furthermore, the elasticity of the lower torque spring and the upper torque spring is utilized to reduce the friction force exerted by the lower brush bar and the upper brush bar on the silicone strip, thereby avoiding indentations on the silicone strip, which prevents the silicone strip from fully fitting the solar panel. The elastic force of the lower torque spring and the upper torque spring resets the lower brush bar and the upper brush bar, and the bristles of the lower brush bar and the upper brush bar are squeezed against each other, and vibrate in coordination with the elastic force of the lower torque spring and the upper torque spring, so as to shake off the dust on the lower brush bar and the upper brush bar.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0038] Example 1

[0039] This embodiment provides an automatic cleaning device for solar photovoltaic panels, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a solar panel 1, side expansion panels 2 are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the solar panel 1, and an upper expansion panel 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the solar panel 1.

[0040] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, an electromagnetic attraction component 4 is provided on the side of the side expansion plate 2, and the electromagnetic attraction component 4 includes a protective shell 41, an iron column 42, a coil 43, a hydraulic component, a magnetic metal block 47, an annular magnet 48 and a hydraulic telescopic rod 410. The protective shell 41 is fixedly installed on the side of the upper expansion plate 3, and the iron column 42 is fixedly installed inside the protective shell 41. The arc surface of the iron column 42 is wrapped with a coil 43 electrically connected to the solar panel 1.

[0041] The iron column 42, the magnetic metal block 47 and the annular magnet 48 are on the same straight line. The iron column 42 and the coil 43 form an electromagnet. When the solar panel 1 is operating normally, the magnetic force of the electromagnet is greater than the magnetic force of the annular magnet 48, and the magnetic metal block 47 is close to the iron column 42. When the solar panel 1 is covered with a lot of dust, the current generated by the solar panel 1 decreases, and the current flowing in the coil 43 decreases, so that the magnetic force of the electromagnet decreases. When the magnetic force of the electromagnet is less than the annular magnet 48, the magnetic metal block 47 moves toward the direction of the annular magnet 48, thereby achieving the effect of detecting the amount of dust on the surface of the solar panel 1.

[0042] A hydraulic assembly is fixedly installed inside the protective shell 41 and at the end of the iron column 42. The hydraulic assembly includes a hydraulic pipe 44, a hydraulic plug 45, a straight rod 46 and a limit block 49. The hydraulic pipe 44 is fixedly installed inside the protective shell 41. The hydraulic plug 45 is slidably connected inside the hydraulic pipe 44. The bottom of the hydraulic plug 45 is fixedly installed with a straight rod 46 that passes through the hydraulic pipe 44. The bottom of the straight rod 46 is fixedly installed with a magnetic metal block 47. The end of the hydraulic pipe 44 is fixedly installed with a limit block 49 that is misaligned with the annular magnet 48. The hydraulic pipe 44 is connected to the hydraulic telescopic rod 410 through the hydraulic pipe, and a magnetic metal block 47 is arranged between the annular magnet 48 and the iron column 42.

[0043] When the surface of the solar panel 1 is less covered with dust, the solar panel 1 generates a large amount of electricity, the magnetic force of the electromagnet formed by the coil 43 and the iron column 42 is greater than the annular magnet 48, the magnetic metal block 47 moves toward the iron column 42, the hydraulic plug 45 moves to the limit position, and there is a gap between the magnetic metal block 47 and the iron column 42; when the surface of the solar panel 1 is more covered with dust, the solar panel 1 generates a small amount of electricity, the magnetic force of the electromagnet formed by the coil 43 and the iron column 42 is less than the annular magnet 48, the magnetic force of the annular magnet 48 acts on the magnetic metal block 47, the magnetic metal block 47 moves toward the annular magnet 48, and the magnetic metal block 47 uses the straight rod 46 to push the hydraulic plug 45, thereby pushing the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic pipe 44 into the hydraulic telescopic rod 410, so that the hydraulic telescopic rod 410 extends.

[0044] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a cleaning component 5 is provided inside the upper expansion plate 3, and the cleaning component 5 includes a slider 51, a round shaft 52 and a cleaning piece. The end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 410 is fixedly connected to the slider 51, and the slider 51 slides on the rod body of the round shaft 52. A circular opening is provided in the middle of the slider 51, and a ball 54 is rollingly connected in the circular opening. A spiral track 53 is provided on the rod body of the round shaft 52, and the ball 54 rolls along the spiral track 53. The slider 51 adopts a square structure, and both sides of the slider 51 are in contact with the upper expansion plate 3.

[0045] The hydraulic telescopic rod 410 pushes the slider 51 to move, and the slider 51 uses the ball 54 to rotate the circular shaft 52. The circular shaft 52 drives the cleaning member to move, and the cleaning member cleans the dust on the surface of the solar panel 1 to restore the power generation efficiency of the solar panel 1.

[0046] like Figure 6 As shown, cleaning parts are provided at both ends of the circular shaft 52, and the cleaning parts include a gear 55, a chain 56, a cleaning block 57 and a silicone strip 58. Gears 55 are fixedly installed at both ends of the circular shaft 52, and the gears 55 rotate inside the side expansion plate 2, and the internal rotation of the side expansion plate 2 is connected to the auxiliary gear. The gears 55 and the auxiliary gears are connected through a chain 56, and the cleaning block 57 is installed at the height of the outer wall of the chain 56. The silicone strip 58 is fixedly installed on the side of the cleaning block 57, and the silicone strip 58 is in contact with the surface of the solar panel 1. The rotation of the circular shaft 52 rotates the gear 55, so that the chain 56 moves and drives the cleaning block 57 and the silicone strip 58, and the silicone strip 58 scrapes the dust on the surface of the solar panel 1.

[0047] The height of the gear 55 is higher than the top of the solar panel 1, and the height of the auxiliary gear is lower than the bottom of the solar panel 1. Initially, the side of the silicone strip 58 contacts the side expansion plate 2. Thus, the moving range of the cleaning block 57 exceeds the top and bottom of the solar panel 1, and the dust on the surface of the solar panel 1 can be completely cleaned.

[0048] In this embodiment, after the surface of the solar panel 1 is covered with dust, the power generation efficiency of the solar panel 1 is reduced, and the current flowing in the coil 43 is reduced. At this time, the magnetic force of the annular magnet 48 is greater than the magnetic force of the electromagnet formed by the iron column 42 and the coil 43, so that the magnetic metal block 47 moves and the hydraulic plug 45 pushes the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic pipe 44 into the hydraulic telescopic rod 410. The hydraulic telescopic rod 410 is extended to move the cleaning member on the surface of the solar panel 1 to scrape off the dust on the surface of the solar panel 1 to prevent the dust from affecting the power generation of the solar panel 1.

[0049] Example 2

[0050] Based on Example 1, this embodiment proposes an automatic cleaning device for solar photovoltaic panels, such as Figure 2 As shown, a reset control assembly 7 is arranged between the hydraulic pipe 44 and the iron column 42. The reset control assembly 7 includes an obstruction plate 71, a lower inclined surface 72, an upper inclined surface 73, a groove 74 and an air spring 75. The upper inclined surface 73 is provided at the end of the obstruction plate 71 and near the top, and the lower inclined surface 72 is provided at the end of the obstruction plate 71 and near the bottom. The obstruction plate 71 is located on the moving path of the magnetic metal block 47. A groove 74 is provided inside the hydraulic pipe 44, and an air spring 75 connecting the hydraulic pipe 44 and the obstruction plate 71 is fixedly installed in the groove 74.

[0051] The obstruction plate 71 is used to obstruct the movement of the magnetic metal block 47. When the surface of the solar panel 1 is covered with a lot of dust, the magnetic force of the annular magnet 48 is greater than the magnetic force of the electromagnet composed of the iron column 42 and the coil 43. The magnetic metal block 47 first moves to the obstruction plate 71, and the magnetic metal block 47 overcomes the resistance exerted on it by the obstruction plate 71 and the air spring 75.

[0052] When the surface of the solar panel 1 is covered with little dust, the magnetic force of the annular magnet 48 is smaller than the magnetic force of the electromagnet composed of the iron column 42 and the coil 43. However, the magnetic metal block 47 cannot move because the obstruction plate 71 and the air spring 75 obstruct the movement of the magnetic metal block 47. When the solar panel 1 is completely cleaned, the magnetic force of the annular magnet 48 is smaller than the magnetic force of the electromagnet composed of the iron column 42 and the coil 43 and the resistance applied by the obstruction plate 71 and the air spring 75. The magnetic metal block 47 can then move from the top of the obstruction plate 71 to the bottom. This avoids the situation where, after half of the dust on the surface of the solar panel 1 has been cleaned, the current generated by the dust-cleaned part and the uncleaned part of the solar panel 1 is sufficient to make the magnetic force of the electromagnet greater than the annular magnet 48, resulting in the solar panel 1 not being completely cleaned and the magnetic metal block 47 being attracted and reset by the electromagnet.

[0053] The angle between the lower slope 72 and the vertical plane is smaller than the angle between the upper slope 73 and the vertical plane, and the resistance exerted by the lower slope 72 on the blocking plate 71 is smaller than the resistance exerted by the upper slope 73 on the blocking plate 71. It is easier for the magnetic metal block 47 to move upward than to move downward.

[0054] In this embodiment, the blocking plate 71 and the air spring 75 cooperate to apply movement resistance to the magnetic metal block 47, and cooperate with the magnetic force of the annular magnet 48 to prevent the current generated by the solar panel 1 from increasing the magnetic force of the electromagnet after the dust on the surface of the solar panel 1 is half cleaned, causing the magnetic metal block 47 to reset, so that the solar panel 1 is not completely cleaned, thereby achieving the effect of delaying the reset of the magnetic metal block 47.

[0055] Example 3

[0056] Based on the above-mentioned embodiment 1 or 2, this embodiment proposes an automatic cleaning device for solar photovoltaic panels, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the dusting assembly 6 includes a support plate 61, a lower brush strip 62 and an upper brush strip 63. The lower brush strip 62 and the upper brush strip 63 are rotatably connected inside the support plate 61. The lower brush strip 62 and the upper brush strip 63 have the same shape. The bristles on the lower brush strip 62 are in contact with the bristles on the upper brush strip 63. When the silicone strip 58 moves to the support plate 61, the upper brush strip 63 and the lower brush strip 62 are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the silicone strip 58.

[0057] Move the silicone strip 58 to the support plate 61, and use the lower brush strip 62 and the upper brush strip 63 to clean the upper and lower sides of the silicone strip 58 to prevent the silicone strip 58 contaminated with dust from repeatedly cleaning the solar panel 1 and failing to clean the solar panel 1.

[0058] The support plate 61 is U-shaped, and an escape opening is opened at the bottom of the support plate 61 and on the left side of the lower brush strip 62. An upper torque spring 65 is elastically connected between the rotating shaft of the upper brush strip 63 and the support plate 61, and a lower torque spring 64 is elastically connected between the rotating shaft of the lower brush strip 62 and the support plate 61.

[0059] After the silicone strip 58 contacts the lower brush strip 62 and the upper brush strip 63, the lower brush strip 62 and the upper brush strip 63 bend, and the elasticity of the lower torque spring 64 and the upper torque spring 65 is used to reduce the friction force applied by the lower brush strip 62 and the upper brush strip 63 to the silicone strip 58, thereby avoiding indentations on the silicone strip 58 and preventing it from fully fitting the solar panel 1. After the silicone strip 58 is moved out of the support plate 61, the elastic force of the lower torque spring 64 and the upper torque spring 65 resets the lower brush strip 62 and the upper brush strip 63, and the bristles of the lower brush strip 62 and the upper brush strip 63 squeeze each other.

[0060] In this embodiment, the elasticity of the lower torque spring 64 and the upper torque spring 65 is utilized to reduce the friction force exerted by the lower brush strip 62 and the upper brush strip 63 on the silicone strip 58, thereby avoiding the formation of indentations on the silicone strip 58, which prevents the silicone strip 58 from being completely fitted to the solar panel 1, and the elastic force of the lower torque spring 64 and the upper torque spring 65 resets the lower brush strip 62 and the upper brush strip 63, and the bristles of the lower brush strip 62 and the upper brush strip 63 are squeezed against each other and vibrate in coordination with the elastic force of the lower torque spring 64 and the upper torque spring 65 to shake off the dust on the lower brush strip 62 and the upper brush strip 63.

[0061] The above specific embodiments are only several optional embodiments of the present invention. Based on the technical solutions of the present invention and the relevant inspirations of the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can make various alternative improvements and combinations to the above specific embodiments.
