The rotation angle of the solar panel in the X, Y, and Z axis directions is controlled by the X-axis motor, the Y-axis motor, and the Z-axis motor, respectively, so that it always keeps the angle following the sun.
[0006] Furthermore, the above-mentioned solar panel angle adjustment and storage mechanism also includes a control system that enables the solar panel to always maintain a set angle, and the control system includes a measuring unit and a controller.

[0009] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned solar panel angle adjustment and storage mechanism, the solar panel always maintains an angle that follows the sun.
[0010] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned solar panel angle adjustment and storage mechanism, the gyroscope sensor, light intensity sensor and acceleration sensor respectively collect angular velocity, light intensity and acceleration information, and transmit them to the measurement unit.
[0011] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned solar panel angle adjustment and storage mechanism, the measurement unit collects information and transmits it to the controller, and the controller issues motion compensation instructions to the X-axis motor, Y-axis motor, and Z-axis motor respectively to control the angle of the solar panel. The control effect of the solar panel is improved. When encountering bad weather or external forces, the control system can issue compensation instructions according to the angle changes of the solar panel, so that the solar panel always maintains the set angle and maintains a high level of solar energy conversion rate and efficiency.
[0012] Furthermore, the working method of the solar panel angle adjustment and storage mechanism is characterized by comprising the following steps: The Y-axis motor and the Z-axis motor control the first bracket and the Z-axis motor to unfold the solar panel; Set the angle that the solar panel needs to maintain with the sun, and send commands to the X-axis motor, Y-axis motor, and Z-axis motor through the controller to control the angle of the solar panel to the set angle; As the sun moves, or when encountering special weather or external forces, the gyroscope sensor, light intensity sensor, and acceleration sensor collect angular velocity, light intensity, and acceleration information respectively, and transmit the data to the measurement unit. After analysis, the measurement unit transmits the data to the controller, which issues compensation instructions to ensure that the solar panel always maintains the set angle with the sun. When encountering bad weather, the controller sends instructions to the Y-axis motor and the Z-axis motor to control the first bracket and the Z-axis motor to store the solar panels.
