Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of solar heat collecting equipment, and in particular to an adaptive tracking solar heat collecting equipment. Background Art
[0002] With the development of solar technology, solar thermal equipment has become widely used in remote areas and agricultural irrigation regions. To improve the energy efficiency of solar panels, many existing systems use a tracking solar panel adjustment mechanism. This mechanism adjusts the angle of the solar panel according to the movement of the sun, ensuring that it always faces the sun to maximize sunlight absorption, thereby improving solar energy collection efficiency.
[0003] Currently, many solar tracking systems utilize single- or dual-axis tracking mechanisms, using sensors to detect changes in the sun's position and automatically adjust the angle of the solar panels. These systems effectively track the sun's movement, optimizing light reception and improving system energy efficiency. However, most existing tracking systems focus solely on adjusting the angle of the solar panels and fail to effectively integrate this functionality with other systems, particularly water management systems.
[0004] Although tracking systems have been implemented in many solar thermal collectors, their practical application in remote areas or agricultural irrigation areas still faces certain limitations. First, many existing tracking systems still rely on complex mechanical and electrical control structures, resulting in high maintenance and operating costs. This is especially difficult in remote areas where there is a shortage of professional technicians, making maintenance and repair even more difficult.
[0005] Furthermore, existing tracking systems mostly operate independently, and the angle adjustment of solar panels isn't effectively coordinated with the operation of other equipment, such as the water pressure system. This results in some applications where, while solar panels can maximize light energy collection, water resource management and allocation aren't optimized simultaneously, impacting the overall system's operating efficiency and resource utilization.
[0006] In remote plateau regions or agricultural irrigation areas, due to resource and power supply limitations, existing solar tracking systems lack a high degree of automation and intelligence and still require manual intervention. While tracking systems can effectively improve light reception efficiency, existing technologies lack flexible adjustment mechanisms to optimize overall system operation when environmental conditions are variable, light levels are insufficient, or resources are limited.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0043] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the specification of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0044] Please refer to the drawings in the specification of the present application Figure 1 - the drawings in the specification of the present application Figure 3 The embodiment of the present application provides a self-adaptive tracking type solar heat collecting equipment, which comprises installation leg one 1, mounting bracket 2, installation leg two 3, solar panel 27 and water well, the top of installation leg one 1 is rotationally connected with the bottom of mounting bracket 2, the back of solar panel 27 is mounted on the surface of mounting bracket 2, the top of installation leg two 3 is provided with an angle adjusting assembly, which is used for driving mounting bracket 2 to adjust the angle under the control of a self-adaptive tracking system, the two sides of installation leg two 3 are both provided with fixed seat 10, the angle adjusting assembly is provided with large gear 5, small gear 12 is rotationally connected with connecting rod 11 in the middle of two fixed seats 10, the external tooth tips of small gear 12 and large gear 5 are engaged, adjusting rod 13 is rotationally arranged at the eccentric position of the outer wall of small gear 12, one end of pulling rod 14 is rotationally arranged outside adjusting rod 13, the other end of pulling rod 14 is rotationally connected with pull rope one 16 through a rotating shaft, the other end of pull rope one 16 is connected with handle 20, and reset assembly is arranged at the bottom of handle 20.
[0045] The middle of large gear 5 is mounted outside rotating rod 9.
[0046] Specifically, the working principle of the present application is based on a set of self-adaptive tracking system, which aims to realize efficient water resource management and energy utilization through intelligent angle adjustment of solar panel 27 and operation of water well. The system is composed of installation leg one 1, mounting bracket 2, installation leg two 3, solar panel 27, angle adjusting assembly and water well, and each component works coordinately to complete the target task.
[0047] First, the installation leg one 1 and the mounting frame 2 are connected by rotating, ensuring that the mounting frame 2 can rotate within a certain range, so that the solar panel 27 can automatically adjust the angle according to the position of the sun. The mounting frame 2 is fixed with the solar panel 27, and the back of the solar panel 27 is closely connected with the mounting frame 2, which ensures that the solar panel 27 rotates with the mounting frame 2 when the mounting frame 2 adjusts, maximizing the reception of sunlight.
[0048] The installation leg two 3 plays a supporting and angle adjusting role. The top is equipped with an angle adjusting assembly, which is driven by the control module to adjust the angle. When the angle adjusting assembly operates, it drives the large gear 5 to rotate at the same angle, which synchronously drives the small gear 12 to rotate, and the adjusting rod 13 moves eccentrically under the rotation of the small gear 12, thereby driving the pull rod 14 to move, and the pull rope one 16 slides along the outside of the pulley 18 under the pull of the pull rod 14, thereby driving the handle 20 to rise, at this time the pull rope two 23 is in tension, and the spring 24 is stretched, so that it generates a rebounding reaction force, when the handle 20 rises, it drives the handle head 21 to move towards the inside of the water well cylinder 19, thereby pushing the piston rod 22 to move downward in the water well cylinder 19, and then after the angle adjustment is completed, the pulling force disappears, at this time the spring 24 rebounds to drive the handle 20 to reset, thereby making the piston rod 22 move upward in the water well cylinder 19, so that the well pressure operation can be completed once, realizing the pressure of water into the well cylinder. The whole process is synchronized with the angle adjustment of the solar panel 27, realizing the linkage of light energy collection and water pressure driving; the operation process of the whole system is accurately coordinated by the control module, the angle change of the solar panel 27 and the water pressure operation are kept synchronous, ensuring that each angle adjustment of the solar panel 27 can not only optimize the energy collection efficiency, but also trigger the water pressure operation through mechanical linkage, realizing the efficient use of energy and water resources.
[0049] Through this integrated design, the system can automatically adjust the angle of the solar panel 27 to cope with changes in light, while ensuring that the water well operation can be automatically started as needed, reducing manual intervention and improving the automation level and operation efficiency of the system.
[0050] Please refer to the attached Figure 2 -attached Figure 3 The angle adjusting assembly includes a bidirectional motor 8, both output ends of the bidirectional motor 8 are connected with a support rod one 6 through a rotating rod 9, the rotating rod 9 is arranged through the middle part of the mounting seat one 4, the support rod one 6 is rotatably provided with a sliding seat 7 at the top, and the sliding seat 7 is slidably arranged on the bottom skeleton of the mounting frame 2.
[0051] Specifically, if the system determines that the angle needs to be adjusted, the control module sends a signal to the bidirectional motor 8, driving the bidirectional motor 8 to drive the rotating rod 9 to control the support rod 6 and the large gear 5 to run at the same angle. Driven by the support rod 6, the slide 7 slides along the upper frame of the mounting frame 2, and at the same time drives the mounting frame 2 to adjust the angle. Driven by the mounting frame 2, the solar panel 27 completes the angle adjustment. The angle change is consistent with the optimal receiving angle provided by the sun position prediction module, thereby achieving efficient light energy reception.
[0052] Please see the attached Figure 4 The reset assembly includes a pull rope 23, one end of the pull rope 23 is installed at the bottom of the crank 20, and the other end of the pull rope 23 is installed on the ground. A spring 24 is provided on the outside of the pull rope 23, the top of the spring 24 is connected to the crank 20, and the bottom of the spring 24 is fixed to the connecting piece on the ground.
[0053] Specifically, when the crank handle 20 is tilted, the pull rope 23 is tensioned and the spring 24 is stretched, causing it to generate a rebound reaction force. After the angle adjustment is completed, the pulling force disappears. At this time, the spring 24 will rebound and drive the crank handle 20 to reset, thereby causing the piston rod 22 to move upward in the water pressure wellbore 19. In this way, a well pressure operation can be completed, and water can be pressed into the wellbore.
[0054] Please see the attached Figure 1 The water pressure well includes a water pressure well barrel 19, the outside of which is arranged directly behind the angle adjustment component. A piston rod 22 slides in the water pressure well barrel 19, and the top of the piston rod 22 is rotatably connected to one end of the handle 21, and the other end of the handle 21 is connected to the top of the crank 20. The connection between the handle 21 and the crank 20 is rotatably connected to the top of the outer wall of the water pressure well barrel 19.
[0055] Specifically, under the pull of rope 16, crank handle 20 is tilted, thereby driving handle head 21 to move toward the interior of water well 19, thereby pushing piston rod 22 downward in water well 19. Subsequently, under the rebound action of spring 24, crank handle 20 is reset, causing piston rod 22 to move upward in water well 19, thus completing a well-killing operation and injecting water into the well. This entire process is synchronized with the angle adjustment of solar panel 27, realizing the linkage between light energy collection and water pressure drive.
[0056] Please see the attached Figure 2 The outer walls of the two fixing seats 10 are both installed with one end of the support rod 25, and the other end of the support rod 25 is connected by a limit rod 26. A slide groove 15 is opened in the middle of the pulling rod 14, and the outside of the limit rod 26 is arranged in the slide groove 15.
[0057] Specifically, under the action of the pull rod 14, to avoid the deflection of the pull rod 14, a sliding groove 15 is arranged in the middle of the pull rod 14, which cooperates with the limiting rod 26 to provide a fulcrum for the movement of the pull rod 14, thereby ensuring stable movement of the pull rod 14.
[0058] Please refer to the attached Figure 5 and attached Figure 6 The adaptive tracking system comprises:
[0059] The environment perception module is used for collecting environmental parameters in real time, which include light intensity, temperature, wind speed, and dust concentration, and transmitting data to the control module for processing.
[0060] Specifically, the design of the environment perception module ensures comprehensive monitoring and feedback of the surrounding environment. The various sensors in the module provide efficient data support for the control module, enabling the system to respond flexibly to environmental changes and improve device performance.
[0061] In one possible implementation, the light sensor 28 is installed on the top of the solar panel 27. The main function of the light sensor 28 is to measure the light intensity in real time and provide solar radiation intensity data. These data are one of the key bases for adjusting the angle of the solar panel 27, enabling the system to automatically adjust the angle of the solar panel 27 to maximize light energy collection.
[0062] Generally, changes in light intensity will affect the power generation efficiency of the solar panel 27.
[0063] Specifically, when the light intensity is too low, the system will determine whether to adjust the angle according to the preset threshold value to increase the light receiving area and improve the efficiency of the solar panel 27. Conversely, when the light is too strong, the system can take appropriate protective measures to prevent the solar panel 27 from being damaged due to overheating.
[0064] In this embodiment, the temperature and humidity sensor 29 is installed on the mounting bracket 2. Its function is to measure the environmental temperature and humidity, which has an important influence on the performance of the solar panel 27. Specifically, the temperature and humidity sensor 29 can provide real-time data of the environmental temperature and humidity, helping the control module to determine the possible impact of temperature and humidity changes on the solar panel 27. For example, high temperature or high humidity may cause the surface of the solar panel 27 to dew or overheat, thereby affecting its efficiency and service life.
[0065] In one possible implementation, the control module determines whether to start relevant protective measures, such as adjusting the angle of the solar panel 27, reducing the temperature, or starting the waterproof system when the humidity is high, according to the data feedback by the temperature and humidity sensor 29 and in combination with the working state of the system.
[0066] Wind speed sensor 30 is installed next to solar panel 27 to monitor wind speed data in real time. Wind speed fluctuations significantly affect the stability and angle adjustment of solar panel 27, especially in high wind speeds, which can cause solar panel 27 to become unstable. Feedback from wind speed sensor 30 helps the control module determine the impact of current wind speed on the angle adjustment of solar panel 27.
[0067] As an option, the system can automatically adjust the angle of the solar panel 27 to the direction of minimum exposure to wind force through the control module based on the wind speed monitoring results when the wind speed exceeds a certain value, ensuring that the solar panel 27 is not damaged by strong winds, thereby extending its service life.
[0068] A dust sensor 31 is installed next to the solar panel 27 to monitor the dust concentration in the environment. Dust accumulation can obscure the surface of the solar panel 27, reducing light intensity and thus affecting the solar panel's power generation efficiency. The dust sensor 31 monitors the dust concentration in the surrounding environment in real time and transmits this data to the control module.
[0069] Specifically, when the dust concentration reaches a certain threshold, the system can issue a reminder to indicate that the solar panel 27 needs to be cleaned. By cleaning regularly or starting the automatic cleaning system, the surface of the solar panel 27 is kept clean to ensure maximum light receiving capacity.
[0070] All sensor data is transmitted to the control module via a data transmission interface. Within the control module, the system performs real-time analysis based on various environmental parameters and makes appropriate control decisions. For example, if light intensity is too low or temperature is too high, the system will automatically adjust the angle of the solar panels 27 to adapt to the changing environmental conditions. In high wind speeds, the control module will take necessary protective measures to prevent damage to the solar panels 27.
[0071] The control module uses thresholds to determine whether the current environmental parameters require adjusting the angle of the solar panels 27 or taking other protective measures based on all sensor data from the environmental perception module. This process ensures the system's stability and efficiency under varying environmental conditions through real-time feedback and iterative optimization of the control algorithm.
[0072] In some embodiments, the light intensity is significantly correlated with the angle adjustment of the solar panel 27. Specifically, the light intensity of the solar panel 27 is Angle with solar panel 27 The relationship can be described by the following formula: ,in is the solar radiation intensity received by the solar panel 27; is the solar radiation intensity at the reference location; is the angle between the solar panel 27 and the sunlight; is the environmental correction factor (including temperature, humidity, dust, etc.).
[0073] Through this formula, the control module can optimize the angle adjustment of the solar panel 27 according to the data provided by the light sensor, temperature and humidity sensor, wind speed sensor and dust sensor, and the change of solar radiation intensity, to maximize energy collection.
[0074] The sun position prediction module calculates the azimuth and altitude of the current and future sun according to the geographical location, time and weather data, and judges whether the angle of the solar panel 27 needs to be adjusted according to the change of the sun position; the sun position prediction module in this embodiment is used to calculate the azimuth and altitude of the current and future sun, so as to judge whether the angle of the solar panel 27 needs to be adjusted, to optimize the collection efficiency of light energy. This module combines geographical location, time and weather data, and predicts the position change trend of the sun through accurate algorithm, to provide decision basis for the control module, to ensure that the solar panel 27 can be adjusted to the best receiving angle at any time.
[0075] This sun position prediction module mainly includes three sub-modules: time algorithm module, geographical positioning module and weather data interface. Each sub-module undertakes different functions, and is connected with other system modules through close cooperation, to provide accurate sun position calculation and early warning information.
[0076] In this embodiment, the time algorithm module calculates the astronomical data of the sun according to the local time and date, which specifically relates to the astronomical parameters of the sun, such as azimuth and altitude. The position of the sun is affected by time, place and the revolution and rotation of the earth, and the azimuth and altitude are two important parameters to describe the position of the sun relative to the fixed point on the ground.
[0077] In general, the calculation formulas of the azimuth and altitude are respectively:
[0078] ;
[0079]
[0080] wherein, is the hour angle, ; is the local time; is the geographical latitude; is the declination angle of the sun, which is affected by seasonal changes; the azimuth is the angle of the sun relative to the south direction; the altitude is the angle of the sun in the sky.
[0081] As an alternative, the time algorithm module automatically updates the calculation parameters in conjunction with the local time and date, ensuring real-time and future solar position predictions with precision.
[0082] The geolocation module is responsible for providing accurate geographic location data based on the installation location of the solar energy collection equipment. This module can provide accurate longitude and latitude information based on the installation site of the solar panel 27, which is crucial for calculating the azimuth and altitude angles of the sun.
[0083] Specifically, the geolocation module obtains real-time location data of the device by integrating a global positioning system (GPS) module. Based on the longitude and latitude of the device's location, the system can accurately calculate the angle changes of the sun. This calculation result provides the necessary geographic coordinate support for the time algorithm module, helping to achieve accurate solar position prediction.
[0084] In some embodiments, the geolocation module can also automatically adjust the preset parameters of the system based on geographic location information to optimize the accuracy of solar position prediction. For example, when the device is located in a high latitude area, the system will automatically calibrate to adapt to the particularity of high latitude solar angle changes.
[0085] The weather data interface module is mainly used to receive external weather data to predict the trend of solar position changes. This module connects with the data interface of meteorological service providers to obtain real-time weather information such as cloud density, temperature, wind speed, etc. These information are very important for the angle adjustment of the solar panel 27, as they directly affect the intensity and stability of solar radiation.
[0086] For example, when the cloud data provided by the weather interface module indicates that there will be more cloud cover, the system may temporarily reduce the adjustment frequency of the angle of the solar panel 27 to prevent excessive adjustment. For another example, when the data provided by the weather interface indicates that the wind speed will exceed the predetermined threshold, the angle of the solar panel 27 may be automatically adjusted to reduce the potential damage of wind to the solar panel 27.
[0087] As an alternative, the weather data interface can also establish a model based on historical weather data to assist in judging the long-term trend of solar position changes, predict and make adjustments in advance. The introduction of this module not only increases the accuracy of prediction, but also enables the system to make the most appropriate response in a changing environment.
[0088] In some embodiments, the solar position prediction module integrates the multi-dimensional data provided by the time algorithm, geolocation module and weather data interface, and uses a weighted algorithm to fuse the information to obtain the prediction results of the current and future azimuth and altitude angles of the sun. The control module determines whether to adjust the angle of the solar panel 27 based on these prediction results.
[0089] Specifically, the control module first obtains the sun angle information output by the sun position prediction module. If the sun's azimuth or altitude deviates from the optimal angle, the control module uses this data to determine whether the angle of solar panels 27 needs to be adjusted. For example, if the current sun position is far from the optimal reception angle, the control module will adjust the orientation of solar panels 27 based on the predicted angle to maximize light reception.
[0090] By closely integrating the sun position prediction module with the control module, the system can achieve highly automated light energy optimization control, ensuring that the solar panels 27 are always maintained in the most efficient working state.
[0091] To ensure accurate and optimized system operation, the sun's position calculation formula will be combined with geolocation, time algorithms, and weather data to accurately reflect the sun's dynamic changes. For dynamic adjustments to the sun's azimuth and altitude, the formula parameter definitions should be consistent with those discussed previously to avoid inconsistencies.
[0092] By combining the calculation formula of the sun's position with external data sources, the control module can make accurate adjustment decisions based on real-time data, thereby achieving efficient light energy collection.
[0093] The control module determines whether to initiate angle adjustment of solar panel 27 based on the target angle data provided by the solar position prediction module, feedback from the environmental perception module, and the battery charge level, and adjusts the angle when necessary. The control module of this embodiment intelligently determines whether the angle of solar panel 27 needs to be adjusted by integrating the target angle data provided by the solar position prediction module, feedback from the environmental perception module, and the battery charge level, and performs the adjustment when necessary. This control module uses an optimized angle adjustment strategy to ensure that solar panel 27 continuously operates at the optimal angle, thereby improving light energy collection efficiency, reducing unnecessary energy consumption, and ensuring long-term stable operation of the system.
[0094] The control module includes a solar panel adjustment control unit, a battery power management module, and an action optimization module. Each module works together to optimize the system's control strategy to achieve optimal solar panel 27 angle adjustment.
[0095] In this embodiment, the solar panel adjustment control unit determines the need for angle adjustment of the solar panel 27 based on the target angle data provided by the sun position prediction module and the data fed back by the environmental perception module. Specifically, the solar panel adjustment control unit analyzes the target angle data and combines it with real-time data provided by the environmental perception module (such as light intensity, wind speed, and temperature) to determine whether angle adjustment should be initiated.
[0096] Typically, the angle of solar panels 27 is adjusted based on changes in the sun's position. When the sun's position changes, the solar panel adjustment control unit compares the sun's azimuth and altitude with a preset target angle to determine whether it has deviated from the optimal reception angle. If the deviation exceeds a preset threshold, the system initiates angle adjustment.
[0097] In one possible implementation, the need for angle adjustment is determined by the following formula: ,in, Indicates the deviation between the current angle of the solar panel 27 and the target angle; It is the target angle calculated by the sun position prediction module; is the actual angle of the solar panel 27 at present.
[0098] if If the deviation exceeds the set threshold, the control unit will trigger the angle adjustment mechanism.
[0099] The battery management module is primarily responsible for real-time monitoring of the battery's charge level. When the battery level drops below a set value, it adjusts the angle adjustment threshold to reduce unnecessary adjustments. Specifically, when the battery level is low, the system adjusts the angle adjustment threshold, reducing the frequency and amplitude of angle adjustments to lower system energy consumption and minimize the need to maintain the optimal angle of the solar panel 27, preventing battery drain due to excessive adjustments.
[0100] Specifically, the battery power management module monitors the battery status in the following ways: ,in, is the current charge percentage of the battery; is the current voltage of the battery; is the voltage of the battery when it is fully charged.
[0101] When the battery level When the angle falls below the set threshold, the control module will adjust the angle adjustment strategy through the optimization algorithm to reduce unnecessary angle adjustment actions and ensure maximum utilization of battery energy.
[0102] As an option, when the battery level drops below a set value, the system prioritizes necessary angle adjustments to ensure maximum light energy collection. Once the battery level returns to a certain level, the system resumes normal angle adjustment strategies.
[0103] The action optimization module continuously optimizes the angle adjustment strategy for solar panels 27 based on data from the feedback learning module. In practice, the feedback learning module helps optimize the action strategy by recording equipment operating data, angle adjustment frequency, efficiency changes, and other information. This module continuously adjusts the optimization algorithm based on historical data, making the angle adjustment of solar panels 27 more intelligent and efficient.
[0104] Specifically, the motion optimization module compares real-time environmental data with historical data to calculate the optimal path for adjusting the solar panel's angle. Through machine learning and algorithm optimization, the system can continuously improve its angle adjustment strategy in a changing environment to adapt to varying conditions such as light, temperature, and wind speed.
[0105] In one possible implementation, the motion optimization module uses the following optimization algorithm to improve the angle adjustment strategy: ,in, is the angle-adjusted efficiency score; is the total energy collected by the solar panel 17 after adjustment; is the total number of angle adjustments.
[0106] Through the above optimization formula, the system can continuously optimize the adjustment strategy according to the energy efficiency performance after each adjustment, ensuring that the angle adjustment of the solar panel 17 is both efficient and energy-saving.
[0107] The control module optimizes the solar panel's 27° angle by comprehensively analyzing multi-dimensional data from the sun position prediction module, the environmental perception module, and the battery power management module. Specifically, the solar panel adjustment control unit calculates the deviation between the target and current angles to determine whether adjustment is necessary. The battery power management module optimizes the angle adjustment frequency when the battery is low. The action optimization module continuously refines the adjustment strategy by learning from historical data.
[0108] Through the collaborative work of these modules, the system can intelligently adjust the angle of the solar panel 27 according to environmental changes, the actual needs of the solar panel 27 and the battery power status, improve energy collection efficiency, reduce unnecessary battery consumption, and optimize overall system performance.
[0109] The angle adjustment and linkage module drives the angle adjustment component through the bidirectional motor 8 according to the instructions of the control module to adjust the angle of the solar panel 27 and control the operation of the water pressure mechanism through mechanical linkage;
[0110] The feedback learning module optimizes the solar panel 27 adjustment strategy and linkage control mechanism based on real-time operation data.
[0111] The feedback learning module in this embodiment aims to continuously optimize the solar panel 27 adjustment strategy and linkage control mechanism based on real-time running data of the system. Through analysis of historical data and real-time feedback, the feedback learning module can adjust the control algorithm to improve the system's self-adaptability and running efficiency. The module combines the output data of the control module, solar position prediction module, and environmental perception module, and continuously improves the angle adjustment strategy of the solar panel 27 based on feedback information, so that the device can achieve the best working state under different environmental conditions.
[0112] The feedback learning module is the core of self-optimization of the entire system. Its main function is to adjust and optimize system running parameters through continuous iteration of data collection and learning algorithms, ensuring the accuracy and efficiency of solar panel 27 angle adjustment.
[0113] In this embodiment, the feedback learning module relies on the output data of the control module, environmental perception module, and solar position prediction module for real-time data collection and analysis. These data include but are not limited to: the deviation between the current angle and the target angle of the solar panel 27, solar radiation intensity, environmental temperature and humidity, wind speed, dust concentration, and battery power, etc.
[0114] Specifically, the system calculates the adjustment efficiency of the solar panel 27 and the impact of angle adjustment on energy efficiency based on real-time sensor data and historical adjustment data. Through the establishment of data records and learning models, the feedback learning module can predict the impact of different adjustment strategies on system performance, thereby continuously optimizing the adjustment strategy.
[0115] In some embodiments, the feedback learning module uses an adaptive optimization algorithm to automatically adjust the angle adjustment strategy based on real-time running data. For example, through the combination of data collection and machine learning algorithms, the feedback learning module can identify the optimal angle adjustment frequency, amplitude, and response time based on historical data.
[0116] Specifically, the feedback learning module can achieve optimal results for each adjustment through optimization algorithms, thereby avoiding unnecessary energy waste. Through the following optimization formula, the feedback learning module can evaluate the effectiveness of each adjustment and optimize subsequent adjustment strategies based on the results: ;
[0117] Where, represents the adjusted energy efficiency score; is the total energy collected by the solar panel 27 after adjustment; is the total number of angle adjustments; is the feedback correction factor, which is derived from the learning and optimization adjustment of the feedback learning module on historical data.
[0118] Generally, when the system is in a stable operating state, the feedback factor (Feedback Factor) will be continuously optimized with the increase of running time and data volume, in order to improve energy efficiency and adjustment accuracy.
[0119] The feedback learning module not only focuses on the adjustment frequency of light intensity and angle, but also considers the influence of environmental factors (such as wind speed, temperature and humidity, dust concentration) on the solar panel 27. Through the analysis of these data, the feedback learning module can judge which environmental conditions need more frequent adjustment and which conditions should reduce unnecessary adjustment actions.
[0120] Specifically, the feedback learning module can identify the sensitivity of environmental changes to the angle adjustment of the solar panel 27 through in-depth analysis of environmental data. For example, when the light intensity is low, the system can reduce the frequency of angle adjustment to reduce the additional energy consumption caused by frequent adjustment; when the wind speed is too large, the system may increase the frequency of angle adjustment to ensure the stability of the solar panel 27.
[0121] Another important function of the feedback learning module is to optimize the linkage control mechanism.
[0122] In some embodiments, the feedback learning module can automatically adjust the collaborative control strategy between different modules according to the feedback data of the solar panel adjustment control unit, the battery power management module, the environmental perception module and the sun position prediction module, in order to maximize the overall efficiency of the system.
[0123] Specifically, the feedback learning module adjusts the response priority of each module by weighting the feedback signals output by different modules. For example, when the battery power is low, the feedback learning module will reduce the frequency of angle adjustment to reduce the burden on the battery; at the same time, the feedback of the environmental perception module will be used to determine whether to strengthen the angle adjustment or protective measures.
[0124] In one possible implementation, the feedback learning module performs weighted calculation on the feedback of different modules by the following formula: ; wherein, is the weight of each feedback signal; is the feedback signal provided by each module (such as the sun position prediction module, the environmental perception module, etc.).
[0125] This weighting mechanism can ensure that different modules adjust their responses according to their priority and the actual impact of feedback, thereby improving the overall adaptive ability of the system.
[0126] The feedback learning module is responsible not only for optimizing the analysis of existing data, but also for regularly evaluating system performance to ensure that the running effect meets expectations. Specifically, the system evaluates the overall effect of the 27-degree angle adjustment of the solar panel by regularly comparing the differences between the real-time collected data and the optimal adjustment strategy.
[0127] For example, the system can calculate the optimization degree of the current strategy by comparing the gap between the power output of the solar panel 27 after angle adjustment and the theoretically optimal output. If the gap is large, the feedback learning module will correct the angle adjustment strategy so that the next adjustment can be more efficient.
[0128] In some embodiments, the system can also gradually improve the angle adjustment accuracy of the solar panel 27 based on long-term operation data, reduce the number of adjustments, and optimize the long-term operation efficiency of the system.
[0129] Working principle: In the highland agricultural area, use the equipment of the application, install the equipment in the area, and the adaptive tracking system starts to work. The light sensor 28, temperature and humidity sensor 29, wind speed sensor 30 and dust sensor 31 in the environment perception module collect environmental parameters, and the collected data is transmitted to the central control module for real-time processing and analysis via the signal line or wireless transmission module.
[0130] At the same time, the solar position prediction module calculates the azimuth and elevation angle of the sun at the current time and in the future period of time according to the current geographical location, the time parameter of installing the equipment and the meteorological information obtained from the weather data interface, and outputs the target tracking angle information. The output data of the module is transmitted to the control module and the actual external environment data provided by the environment perception module is input into the central control unit.
[0131] The control module is internally provided with a logic judgment unit, an angle control unit and an energy management unit. The logic judgment unit determines whether the angle adjustment of the solar panel 27 is needed according to the target angle provided by the solar position prediction module, the external environment change information fed back by the environment perception module and the remaining battery power. When the adjustment condition is met, the angle control unit sends a control signal to the bidirectional motor 8 to drive the angle adjustment action. At the same time, the energy management unit monitors the current system power supply condition to ensure that the adjustment process can be executed within a reasonable power range and to ensure stable operation of the equipment.
[0132] If it is determined that the angle needs to be adjusted, the control module sends a signal to the bidirectional motor 8, driving the bidirectional motor 8 to drive the rotating rod 9 to control the support rod 6 and the large gear 5 to run at the same angle. Driven by the support rod 6, the slide 7 slides along the upper frame of the mounting frame 2, and at the same time drives the mounting frame 2 to adjust the angle. Driven by the mounting frame 2, the solar panel 27 completes the angle adjustment. The angle change is consistent with the optimal receiving angle provided by the sun position prediction module, thereby achieving efficient light energy reception.
[0133] When the angle adjustment is completed, the large gear 5 rotates synchronously, driving the small gear 12 to rotate. The rotation of the small gear 12 drives the adjusting rod 13 to perform eccentric movement, thereby driving the pulling rod 14 to move. Under the traction of the pulling rod 14, the pull rope 16 slides along the outside of the pulley 18, thereby driving the crank handle 20 to tilt. At this time, the pull rope 23 is in a tensioned state and drives the spring 24 to stretch, causing it to produce a rebound reaction force. When the crank handle 20 is tilted, it will drive the handle head 21 to move toward the inside of the water pressure well shaft 19, thereby pushing the piston rod 22 to move downward in the water pressure well shaft 19. Then, after the angle adjustment is completed, the pulling force disappears, and the spring 24 rebounds and drives the crank handle 20 to reset, thereby causing the piston rod 22 to move upward in the water pressure well shaft 19. In this way, a well killing operation can be completed, and water can be pressed into the well shaft. The entire process is carried out synchronously with the angle adjustment action of the solar panel 27, realizing the linkage coordination of light energy collection and water pressure drive.
[0134] In addition, the feedback learning module records and analyzes environmental data, execution time, water pressure efficiency, angle adjustment frequency and other data during the above operation process, and continuously optimizes the control strategy and execution threshold based on the accumulated operation data to improve the equipment's adaptability and operational stability in changing climate environments.
