However, traditional solar lamps have many problems: First, the position of the sun changes all the time, and the altitude and azimuth angles change constantly throughout the day. Fixed-angle solar panels are difficult to receive light efficiently. When the light is oblique in the morning and evening, a lot of light energy is wasted, and it is impossible to provide sufficient power for lamps and energy storage devices; second, the sun's trajectory varies greatly in different seasons, and fixed panels cannot adapt. The sun's altitude and azimuth are different in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and the collection efficiency is limited. In the long run, the power supply of lamps is unstable, and lamps in areas with insufficient light are prone to extinguishing due to insufficient power.

[0003] Therefore, the existing energy-saving solar lamps need to be further improved. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an energy-saving solar lamp and a control method, which can make the solar panel better align with the sun's position and increase the efficiency of energy reception.

[0009] Furthermore, the flip solar panel assembly includes a flip mounting seat arranged on the rotating circular table, a solar panel is flip-mounted on the flip mounting seat, and the solar panel and the battery are electrically connected through electric wires.

[0010] Furthermore, the lifting ring assembly includes a lifting ring body sleeved on the circumferential outer wall of the rotating table.

[0011] Furthermore, the transmission gear assembly includes a vertical guide groove arranged on the outer wall of the circumference of the rotating table, a vertical rack is movably arranged in the vertical guide groove, a middle gear is arranged in the middle of the flip mounting seat, a transmission gear is arranged on one side of the solar panel, a meshing gear is arranged on the end face of the middle gear, the meshing gear and the vertical rack are meshed for transmission, and the middle gear and the transmission gear are meshed for transmission.

[0012] Furthermore, the synchronous adjustment ring includes a limiting ring arranged on the circumferential outer wall of the lifting ring body, and also includes an outer adjustment ring, the inner wall of the outer adjustment ring is provided with an annular limiting groove, and the annular limiting groove is clamped in the limiting ring for rotation.

[0028] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] The rotating assembly 2 in the lighting fixture body 1 is responsible for adjusting the horizontal position of the solar panel. The truncated cone rotating seat 201 serves as a basic support, on which the rotating truncated cone 202 is mounted and a circular groove 203 is provided at the bottom. The inner ring gear 204 on the inner wall of the circular groove 203 meshes with the driving gear 206 at the output end of the forward and reverse motor 205 in the truncated cone rotating seat 201. When the forward and reverse motor 205 is started, the driving gear 206 rotates and drives the inner ring gear 204 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating truncated cone 202 to perform a circular motion on the truncated cone rotating seat 201, so that the flip solar panel assembly 3 installed on the rotating truncated cone 202 can rotate 360 ​​degrees in the horizontal direction, track the east-west movement trajectory of the sun in real time, and ensure that the solar panel always faces the approximate direction of the sun during the rising and setting process.

[0031] Lifting ring assembly 4 linkage: The lifting ring assembly 4 includes a lifting ring body 401 sleeved on the outer circumferential wall of the rotating table 202, which is closely associated with the rotating assembly 2. During the rotation of the rotating assembly 2, the height adjustment structure 7 plays a key role. The ring member 701 is fixed to the lamp holder body 101, and the arc guide groove 702 thereon is movably interlaced with the guide shaft 703 on the outer wall of the outer adjustment ring 602. Since the arc guide groove 702 is U-shaped, when the rotating table 202 rotates, the guide shaft 703 slides in the arc guide groove 702, driving the outer adjustment ring 602 to change its height. The outer adjustment ring 602 uses the clamping rotation relationship between the limit ring 601 and the limit ring 601 on the outer circumferential wall of the lifting ring body 401 and its own annular limit groove 603, so that the lifting ring body 401 is lifted and lowered synchronously. Transmission gear assembly 5 transmission: vertical guide groove 501 is set on the outer wall of the circumference of rotating truncated table 202, and vertical rack 502 can move up and down in vertical guide groove 501.

In this way, through this series of gear meshing transmission power, the lifting movement of lifting ring body 401 is converted into the angle tilt of solar panel 302 around flip mount 301, so that solar panel can accurately track the change of solar altitude angle in vertical direction, from the lower angle at sunrise to the highest angle at noon and then to the lower angle at sunset, so as to always maintain a good lighting angle.

[0032] The light sensor switch 104 in the lighting fixture body 1 is located between the battery 103 and the lighting fixture 102, and it can sense the light intensity of the surrounding environment. When the sun is abundant during the day, the light sensor switch 104 detects high-intensity light and is in an open circuit state, cutting off the circuit between the lighting fixture 102 and the battery 103, and the lighting fixture 102 is turned off; when night falls or the light is dim to a certain extent, the light sensor switch 104 detects that the light intensity is lower than the set threshold, and it automatically closes and connects the circuit, and the battery 103 supplies power to the lighting fixture 102, so that it lights up, realizing intelligent lighting control and avoiding energy waste.
