It has a simple structure and strong practicality, is not restricted by the site, is not easy to damage the photovoltaic panel, is not restricted by the use of the photovoltaic panel, and can clean the photovoltaic panel anytime and anywhere. It has a wide range of applications and high practical value.

[0030] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, a new energy photovoltaic panel with automatic cleaning function comprises a photovoltaic panel body 1 and a support frame 2, support frames 2 are arranged on both sides of the photovoltaic panel body 1, and both sides of the photovoltaic panel body 1 are detachably connected to the support frame 2, a photovoltaic panel cleaning device is arranged on the support frame 2, and the photovoltaic panel cleaning device is arranged on one side of the support frame 2, and a cleaning brush body 3 is cantilevered across the cross-section of the photovoltaic panel body 1, and the photovoltaic panel cleaning device comprises a cleaning brush body 3, a sliding base 4, a driving mechanism and a ball screw 5, the bottom end center of the sliding base 4 is matched and connected to the ball screw 5, and the end of the ball screw 5 is connected to the output end of the driving mechanism, the cleaning brush body 3 is installed on the top side of the sliding base 4, and a plurality of bristles 11 are arranged on the bottom surface of the cleaning brush body 3, and the bristles face the upper surface of the photovoltaic panel body 1, and the driving mechanism drives the ball screw 5 to rotate when it works, so that the sliding base 4 slides back and forth on the ball screw 5, and drives the cleaning brush body 3 to clean the upper surface of the photovoltaic panel body 1.

[0031] like Figure 6 As shown, further, the new energy photovoltaic panel also includes a fixing plate 6 and a mounting groove 7. The fixing plate 6 is arranged at the center of the two side surfaces where the photovoltaic panel body 1 is connected to the support frame 2. The mounting groove 7 is arranged at the center of the side where the support frame 2 is connected to the photovoltaic panel body 1. The fixing plate 6 and the mounting groove 7 are plugged in. The fixing plate 6 and the support frame 2 are provided with mounting holes 8. Bolts are arranged in the mounting holes 8 to connect and fix the fixing plate 6 and the support frame 2.
