Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of photovoltaic devices, and in particular to a foldable umbrella-shaped flexible photovoltaic support and a method. Background Art

[0002] In modern manufacturing, the demand for renewable resources is increasing, and solar photovoltaic power generation technology is also widely used. Flexible brackets are diverse in form and can be used in many scenarios such as mountainous areas, agricultural greenhouses, and factory parking lots. They make full use of the conditions of different scenarios, follow the principle of "multiple spans and multiple rows", reasonably layout the structure, and raise the columns to maximize space utilization.

[0003] In the past, traditional photovoltaic panel installations usually adopted fixed structures and simple tilted structures, which can meet the conditions of static loads, but are difficult to adapt to strong wind environments. In traditional designs, fixed brackets are prone to instability or damage under strong wind conditions, especially in multi-span layouts, where wind loads have a greater impact on the system. Fixed photovoltaic panel brackets take up a lot of space during transportation, installation and maintenance, and cannot meet the needs of high-density layout and space saving. The design of large spans needs to take into account both flexible design and structural strength, and traditional solutions often find it difficult to optimize both. In terms of automation, traditional bracket designs lack intelligent adjustment functions based on environmental changes (such as wind speed), and manual operation is required to adjust the angle or store the equipment.

[0004] The existing designs include a single-layer suspension structure, which consists of a main steel frame composed of beams and columns, cable-stayed cables, cable bodies and other main components. After the component support cables are tensioned, they are fixed through anchors at the ends of the steel beams. The tensioning equipment allows the support cables to obtain stress stiffness for supporting the components, and a self-balancing system is formed by the end-tightening. The tilt-angle adjustable bracket adjusts the tilt angle of the photovoltaic panel by electric or manual means to optimize the solar energy absorption efficiency. When a strong wind environment arrives, the foldable bracket system protects the photovoltaic panel through a folding or storage mechanism.

[0005] However, this type of photovoltaic bracket also has some disadvantages: 1. It is prone to large deformation in the face of strong winds, and its ability to withstand wind loads is limited under strong wind conditions.

[0006] 2. Under extreme weather conditions, photovoltaic panels are always exposed and lack protection mechanisms.

[0007] 3. During installation and transportation, the bracket and photovoltaic panels need to be fully unfolded, taking up a large space.

[0008] 4. The electric or manual angle adjustment device increases the complexity of the structure and the maintenance cost in long-term operation is high.

[0009] 5. Angle adjustment usually relies on mechanical hinges or motors, which have a limited range of motion and are difficult to achieve folding functions.

[0010] 6. In the existing folding design, the slide rail and slider are less designed, and the support system is prone to loosening or jamming when folding.

[0011] To this end, we propose a foldable umbrella-shaped flexible photovoltaic bracket and method. Summary of the invention

[0012] In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a foldable umbrella-shaped flexible photovoltaic support and method.

[0013] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object of the invention, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: A foldable umbrella-shaped flexible photovoltaic support comprises: an umbrella rib assembly, comprising an umbrella column and main ribs radially arranged on the circumference of the umbrella column, and a photovoltaic panel is arranged on the main ribs; an opening and closing assembly, arranged on the umbrella column, driving the opening and closing of the main ribs; an environmental module, arranged on the top of the umbrella column and the opening and closing assembly, and used for collecting environmental wind speed, wind direction, temperature and humidity data; a controller, electrically connected to the environmental module and the opening and closing assembly, and the controller is used to control the opening and closing assembly according to the data of the environmental module.

[0014] By setting up umbrella rib components and opening and closing components, the photovoltaic panels are set on the main ribs. The umbrella rib-shaped photovoltaic bracket has higher stability than the traditional bracket. The opening and closing components are controlled by the environmental module and the controller according to the environmental data to automatically fold and unfold the umbrella rib components. The degree of automation is higher. The umbrella rib components can be folded in strong wind weather to reduce wind resistance, protect the photovoltaic panels, and increase the service life of the photovoltaic panels.

[0018] The transmission assembly comprises an active tooth, a reduction tooth and a transmission tooth; the active tooth is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the driving motor, the output shaft end of the driving motor passes through the lower push plate and is located above the lower push plate, the reduction tooth is rotatably connected to the center of the lower push plate, and the center of the reduction tooth is provided with a through hole for the umbrella column to pass through, the active tooth and the reduction tooth are meshed, the transmission tooth is also meshed with the reduction tooth, and is also rotatably connected to the lower push plate, a through hole is provided in the center of the transmission tooth, and an internal thread matching the push-pull screw rod is provided on the hole wall of the through hole, and the push-pull screw rod is threadedly connected in the through hole; the active tooth is driven to rotate by the driving motor, the active tooth drives the middle reduction tooth to rotate, and the rotation of the reduction tooth drives the transmission tooth meshed with the outer periphery of the reduction tooth to rotate, because the push-pull screw rod is threadedly connected in the transmission tooth, and the top of the push-pull screw rod is fixedly connected, the push-pull screw rod will not rotate during the rotation of the transmission tooth, but will move up and down in the transmission tooth, thereby realizing the opening and closing drive of the umbrella rib assembly, the gear transmission kinetic energy loss is small, and the synchronization can be improved.

[0019] It is further defined that the environmental module includes a wind speed and direction sensor and a temperature and humidity sensor. The wind speed and direction sensor is arranged at the top of the upper top block, and the temperature and humidity sensor is arranged on the upper push seat. The wind speed and direction of the environment can be detected by the wind speed and direction sensor, and the temperature and humidity sensor can detect the temperature and humidity of the environment, so as to facilitate opening and closing control according to environmental parameters.

The photovoltaic panel is fixedly connected to the two sliding blocks, and the two sliding blocks are respectively located on both sides of the pulling block; the photovoltaic panel is fixed by the two sliding blocks, and the two sliding blocks can slide in the slide groove, and the pulling block serves as a limiting device for the two sliding blocks. The sliding block on the inner side of the pulling block will no longer be able to slide outward due to the obstruction of the pulling block, thereby preventing the photovoltaic panel from falling off the main bone. The sliding setting of the photovoltaic panel can avoid obstructions and adapt to environmental changes. When maintenance is needed, the photovoltaic panel can be slid for maintenance, which makes maintenance more convenient.

[0021] It is further defined that a locking seat is provided on the top surface of the lower top block through a ring plate, a locking block is provided on the bottom surface of the upper top block corresponding to the locking seat, and a photoelectric encoder is also provided on the top surface of the upper push seat.

By arranging a photoelectric encoder adjacent to the locking seat on the upper push seat, the distance between the locking seat and the locking block can be obtained in real time through the photoelectric encoder, thereby realizing the automatic opening and closing action of the umbrella rib assembly through the controller.
