The present invention forms an intelligent dew removal system by the transparent conductive film covered on the surface of the photovoltaic panel in cooperation with the humidity sensor and the microprocessor module. By real-time monitoring the surface humidity and dew condensation state, the heating function of the conductive film is dynamically triggered to quickly eliminate the water film or frost coverage, avoiding the light energy loss caused by dew condensation, and significantly improving the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic panel in a humid water area. The cleaning component added at the high position end of the photovoltaic panel can automatically or responsive remove the dust attached to the surface.

Through the cooperative design of the porous spray pipe and the fan-shaped nozzle on the fixing bar, the present invention realizes wide-area coverage cleaning of the photovoltaic panel surface. The fan-shaped spray mode can efficiently wash away the attached dirt and residual water stains, while reducing water resource waste. The spray pipes between adjacent floating body units are connected by telescopic hoses, which not only ensures the flexible adaptation of the pipeline during the dynamic displacement of the floating body, but also realizes the unified control of multi-module linkage cleaning. The high-pressure water pump combines with the bottom filter cabin and the conical counterweight to directly extract the filtered water body from the water area as the cleaning water source, which has both energy conservation and environmental protection and water source adaptability. Its linkage control with the microprocessor module can intelligently start and stop spraying according to environmental data or the condensation state, which is beneficial to reducing the accumulation of pollutants on the photovoltaic panel surface and the water stain shielding effect, and further ensuring the light energy conversion efficiency and the long-term operation of the equipment; 4. Through the linkage design of the first slide rail on the outer wall of the hollow cylinder and the arc-shaped slider, combined with the threaded rod transmission system driven by the servo motor, through the mechanical coupling of the square slider, the moving block and the fixed rod, the present invention realizes the automatic reciprocating cleaning of the hollow cylinder by the cleaning brush, efficiently removing the attached algae and sediments, reducing the floating body resistance and the corrosion risk. The ultrasonic algae repeller integrated in the arc-shaped slider and the ultraviolet lamp form a double algae inhibition barrier, which directionally inhibits the biological siltation at the bottom of the floating body. Cooperating with the water quality sensor embedded at the bottom to real-time feedback the water body parameters to the microprocessor module, a dynamic environment response mechanism is formed, and the durability of the floating body structure and the ecological compatibility of the water area are improved.

It can not only maintain the balance of the device under water level fluctuations or bad weather, but also avoid the overload fracture of the anchor chain 10, thereby improving the environmental adaptability, power generation efficiency, and operation and maintenance convenience of the floating photovoltaic device, being applicable to complex water area environments, effectively extending the service life of the equipment. The frame structure composed of the cross beam 17, the first U-shaped fixer 18, the second U-shaped fixer 20, and the column 19 added to the top of the bottom plate 7 significantly improves the support stability of the photovoltaic panel 8 and fixes the tilt angle of the photovoltaic panel 8 to improve the light absorption efficiency. The lead 23 channel formed by the L-shaped steel bracket 21 and the built-in plastic pipe 22 conceals the wiring of the lead 23 from the junction box of the photovoltaic panel 8 to the energy storage device. It not only avoids the insulation aging problem caused by the long-term exposure of the cable to water vapor and ultraviolet environments, but also buffers the mechanical stress of the water flow shaking on the cable through the flexibility of the plastic pipe 22, ensuring the reliability and safety of power transmission. The transparent conductive film 24 covered on the surface of the photovoltaic panel 8, the humidity sensor 25, and the microprocessor module 16 cooperate to form an intelligent dew removal system. By real-time monitoring the surface humidity and dew condensation state, the conductive film heating function is dynamically triggered to quickly eliminate the water film or frost coverage, avoiding the light energy loss caused by dew condensation and significantly improving the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic panel 8 in a humid water area environment. The cleaning component added to the high-position end of the photovoltaic panel 8 can automatically or responsive remove the dust attached to the surface. Combined with the active anti-dew condensation mechanism of the conductive film, it forms a double self-cleaning guarantee, reducing the frequency of manual maintenance. Through the combined design of the porous spray pipe 27 and the fan-shaped nozzle 28 on the fixing strip 26, the wide-area coverage cleaning of the surface of the photovoltaic panel 8 is realized. The fan-shaped spray mode can efficiently wash away the attached dirt and residual water stains, while reducing water resource waste. The spray pipes 27 between adjacent floating body units are connected by telescopic hoses 29, which not only ensures the flexible adaptation of the pipeline during the dynamic displacement of the floating body, but also realizes the unified control of multi-module linkage cleaning. The high-pressure water pump 30 combines with the bottom filter cabin 32 and the conical counterweight 33 to directly extract the filtered water body from the water area as the cleaning water source, which has both energy conservation and environmental protection and water source adaptability. Its linkage control with the microprocessor module 16 can intelligently start and stop the spraying according to environmental data or dew condensation state, which is beneficial to reducing the accumulation of pollutants on the surface of the photovoltaic panel 8 and the water stain shielding effect, further ensuring the light energy conversion efficiency and the long-term operation of the equipment. Through the linkage design of the first slide rail 34 and the arc-shaped slider 35 on the outer wall of the hollow cylinder 1, combined with the transmission system of the threaded rod 41 driven by the servo motor 40, through the mechanical coupling of the square slider 42, the moving block 43, and the fixing rod 44, the cleaning brush automatically reciprocates to clean the hollow cylinder 1,Efficiently remove attached algae and sediments, reduce the resistance of the floating body and the corrosion risk. The ultrasonic algae repeller 36 integrated in the arc-shaped slider 35 and the ultraviolet lamp 37 form a dual algae inhibition barrier, which directionally inhibits the biological siltation at the bottom of the floating body. Cooperating with the water quality sensor 45 embedded at the bottom, it real-time feeds back the water body parameters to the microprocessor module 16, constituting a dynamic environment response mechanism, and improving the durability of the floating body structure and the ecological compatibility of the water area. At the same time, it reduces the frequency of manual intervention, ensures the long-term efficient and stable operation of the floating solar power system.,
