Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of heliostat main beams, in particular to a medium-to-large heliostat main beam. Background Art

[0002] Heliostats are concentrating devices in tower-type solar thermal systems. Their reflective surfaces track the sun, reflecting and focusing sunlight onto a fixed target. Currently, heliostats are typically made of silver-coated glass, which offers advantages such as high reflectivity and long lifespan. To ensure optimal sun tracking, heliostats require columns and a main beam to support multiple heliostats. Furthermore, angle and direction adjustment mechanisms, combined with the main beam, are required to simultaneously adjust the positions of multiple heliostats according to changes in the sun's position, ensuring smooth tracking.

[0003] To better support the heliostats during use, the existing heliostat main beam needs to be coordinated with a truss to stabilize the positions of multiple heliostat lenses. The connection between the heliostat main beam and the truss is primarily secured by welding or bolting, which prevents fine-tuning based on on-site installation requirements. Due to the large size of the main beams for medium- and large-sized heliostats, slight errors are easily introduced during the assembly of the multiple trusses on the main beam. This can also lead to errors when the heliostat lenses are subsequently fixed to the trusses, affecting the smoothness of the fit between the multiple heliostat lenses. Since the site radius of a medium- and large-sized heliostat is typically 450 meters, and the maximum straight-line distance from the heliostat to the heat sink is nearly 500 meters, slight connection errors between the main beam and the truss can seriously affect the light reflection accuracy of the heliostat lenses, thereby reducing the installation accuracy of the main beam on the heliostat lenses.

[0004] Combining the above problems, we find that it is difficult to avoid the above problems at the same time when using the existing medium and large heliostat main beams. Even if they can be solved, they need to be solved with the help of external tools, which makes it impossible to achieve the desired effect.

[0041] As a further limitation of the adjustment mechanism 2 of the present invention, the position fine-tuning unit 21 includes a plurality of fixed sleeves 2101, the inner wall of each fixed sleeve 2101 is in contact with the outer surface of the hollow beam 12, the surface of each fixed sleeve 2101 is slidably connected to a connecting ring 2102, the outer surface of each connecting ring 2102 is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 14, the outer surface of each connecting ring 2102 is provided with a worm gear groove 2103, the outer surface of each fixed sleeve 2101 is fixedly connected to a fixing frame 2104, the interior of each fixing frame 2104 is rotatably connected to a worm 2105, and each worm 2105 is meshed with the worm gear groove 2103 The outer surface of each worm 2105 is fixedly connected to the first large gear 2106, the interior of each fixed frame 2104 is rotatably connected to a rotating rod 2107, the outer surface of each rotating rod 2107 is fixedly connected to the first small gear 2108, the outer surface of each first small gear 2108 is meshed with the outer surface of the first large gear 2106, the outer surface of each rotating rod 2107 is fixedly connected to the second large gear 2109, the interior of each fixed frame 2104 is rotatably connected to a connecting rod 2110, the outer surface of each connecting rod 2110 is fixedly connected to the second small gear 2111, and each second small gear The outer surface of 2111 is meshed with the outer surface of the second large gear 2109, the inner wall of each fixed sleeve 2101 is fixedly connected with a sliding frame 2112, each sliding frame 2112 is slidably connected to the inside of the hollow beam 12, and the two hollow beams 12 are internally provided with a hollow screw 2113, the outer surfaces of the two hollow screws 2113 are respectively threadedly connected to the inner walls of the sliding frames 2112 on the outer sides of the two hollow beams 12, and the interiors of the two hollow screws 2113 are slidably connected with a rotating screw 2114, and the outer surfaces of the two rotating screws 2114 are respectively threadedly connected to the inner walls of the sliding frames 2112 on the inner sides of the two hollow beams 12. By providing a position fine-tuning unit 21, the elevation angle of the truss 13 on the hollow beam 12 can be fine-tuned by rotating the worm 2105, making the elevation angles of the multiple trusses 13 more consistent. Furthermore, the distance between the trusses 13 can be fine-tuned using the hollow screw 2113 and the rotating screw 2114, thereby increasing the accuracy of subsequent fixing of the heliostat lenses to the trusses 13. This allows the hollow beam 12 to fine-tune the position and elevation angle of the truss 13 according to the on-site installation requirements of the heliostat lenses, thereby reducing and eliminating minor errors during assembly of the truss 13 and improving the installation and matching accuracy between the hollow beam 12, truss 13, and heliostat lenses.

[0044] The specific implementation of this embodiment is as follows: after the plurality of trusses 13 are assembled on the hollow beam 12, if the installation surfaces of the plurality of trusses 13 are not flat enough due to assembly errors and the elevation angle tilting is required to be fine-tuned, it is only necessary to rotate the connecting rod 2110 in conjunction with the fixing frame 2104, and then the second large gear 2109 can be driven to rotate by the second small gear 2111. When the second large gear 2109 rotates, the first large gear 2106 can be driven to rotate by the first small gear 2108, and at this time the worm 2105 can be rotated, so that the worm The worm gear groove 2103 allows the connecting ring 2102 to rotate inside the fixing sleeve 2101, so that the elevation angle of the truss 13 on the hollow beam 12 can be fine-tuned through the connecting frame 14, so that the elevation angles of the multiple trusses 13 are more consistent, ensuring the flatness of the heliostat lens when installed on the truss 13. In addition, the first large gear 2106 cooperates with the first small gear 2108, the second large gear 2109, the second small gear 2111 and the worm 2105 to make the rotation fine-tuning of the connecting ring 2102 more precise. It is labor-saving and accurate. When the distance between the trusses 13 needs to be fine-tuned, it is only necessary to rotate the hollow screw 2113 in conjunction with the limit of the stabilizing frame 2116, and the sliding frame 2112 can slide inside the hollow beam 12, and then the fixing sleeve 2101 can pass through the connecting ring 2102 and the connecting frame 14 to drive the trusses 13 on the outside of the hollow beam 12 to fine-tune the position. Then, the rotating screw 2114 can be rotated to drive the trusses 13 on the inside of the hollow beam 12 through the sliding frame 2112, the fixing sleeve 2101, the connecting ring 2102 and the connecting frame 14. The truss 13 is fine-tuned in position, which increases the accuracy of the subsequent fixing of the heliostat lens on the truss 13. The hollow beam 12 can fine-tune the position and elevation angle of the truss 13 according to the on-site installation requirements of the heliostat lens, reducing and eliminating minor errors in the assembly of the truss 13 and the hollow beam 12, improving the installation and matching accuracy between the hollow beam 12, the truss 13 and the heliostat lens, and preventing the heliostat lens from being offset in installation due to assembly errors between the hollow beam 12 and the truss 13, thereby affecting the sunlight reflection accuracy of the heliostat lens.

At this time, the pushing frame 2212 will also move downward with the handle frame 2210 and contact the lower pressing plate 2208, and push the lower pressing frame 2206 downward through the lower pressing plate 2208, forcing the return spring 2205 to contract under the limit of the second telescopic rod 2219. When the lower pressing frame 2206 moves downward, the inclined surface of the lower pressing frame 2206 and the inclined surface of the snap-in sleeve 2204 can be used to The two clamping sleeves 2204 are forced to move away from each other to release the meshing relationship with the positioning gear 2202, and at the same time, the compression spring 2203 is contracted under the limit of the first telescopic rod 2218. At this time, the handle frame 2210 is engaged with the clamping groove 2211, and the connecting rod 2110 can be rotated by the handle frame 2210 to ensure the normal adjustment of the elevation angle of the truss 13. At the same time, the rotating bearing 2207 can prevent the arc surface of the pushing frame 2212 from directly rubbing against the lower pressure plate 2208, and the lower pressure plate 2208 can be rotated with the rotation of the pushing frame 2212, further ensuring the smooth rotation of the connecting rod 2110. When the elevation angle of the truss 13 is adjusted, the lower pressure plate 2208 can be rotated. After completion, it is only necessary to loosen the handle frame 2210 and use the elastic force provided by the reset spring 2205 to push the lower pressure frame 2206 to move upward and reset. Then the compression spring 2203 will also push the two clamping sleeves 2204 to merge again, and let the clamping sleeve 2204 re-engage with the positioning gear 2202 to limit the position of the connecting rod 2110 after rotation, thereby automatically locking or loosening the limit of the connecting rod 2110, preventing the truss 13 from loosening after the elevation angle is adjusted, and ensuring the stability of the truss 13 after fine-tuning the elevation angle. When the truss 13 elevation angle is fine-tuned, the manual rotation of the adjusting screw 2217 can drive the curved plate 2215 on the positioning rod through the fixing block 2216. 2220, until the two curved plates 2215 slide inside the limiting groove 2213 until the inclined surfaces of the two curved plates 2215 are in contact with the inner wall of the limiting groove 2213. Since the adjusting screw 2217 is rotatably connected to the inside of the fixing sleeve 2101, the positioning rod 2220 is also slidably connected to the inside of the fixing sleeve 2101, so the position of the connecting ring 2102 inside the fixing sleeve 2101 after fine-tuning can be further limited. It can also share the limiting pressure of the worm 2105 on the connecting ring 2102 through the worm gear groove 2103 to a certain extent, thereby ensuring the stability of the truss 13 after the elevation angle is adjusted and the load-bearing capacity of the heliostat lens.

[0051] Example 3: Please refer to Figure 6 、 Figure 11-13The present invention provides a technical solution: a main beam of a medium-to-large heliostat. The present invention makes corresponding improvements to the technical problems mentioned in the background technology. A positioning mechanism 3 is provided inside the position fine-tuning unit 21. The positioning mechanism 3 is used in conjunction with the adjustment mechanism 2. The positioning mechanism 3 is used to position the truss 13 after sliding adjustment on the hollow beam 12.

[0052] As a further limitation of the positioning mechanism 3 of the present invention, the positioning mechanism 3 includes two toothed discs 301, the outer surfaces of the two toothed discs 301 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hollow beam 12, the outer surfaces of the two hollow screws 2113 are fixedly connected to the fixed disc 302, one side of the two fixed discs 302 are fixedly connected to the auxiliary plate 303, the interior of the two auxiliary plates 303 are slidably connected to the guide rod 304, the outer surfaces of the two hollow screws 2113 are provided with a socket 305, the outer surfaces of the two guide rods 304 are sleeved with a connecting spring 306, and the two connecting springs 3 One end of each of the two connecting springs 306 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the auxiliary plate 303, and the other ends of the two connecting springs 306 are fixedly connected to the clamping blocks 307. The top ends of the two guide rods 304 are fixedly connected to the bottom surfaces of the two clamping blocks 307, and the upper surfaces of the two clamping blocks 307 are respectively engaged with the inner walls of the two toothed discs 301. One side of the two clamping blocks 307 is fixedly connected to the handle 308. The ends of the two hollow beams 12 away from each other are fixedly connected to the gear sleeves 309. The outer surfaces of the two gear sleeves 309 are fixedly connected to the auxiliary bearings 310. The two auxiliary bearings The outer surface of each of the two rotating cylinders 311 is fixedly connected to a rotating cylinder 311, and the interior of each of the two rotating cylinders 311 is slidably connected to a sliding bar 312. The two sliding bars 312 are respectively slidably connected to the interior of the two rotating screws 2114. The tops of the two sliding bars 312 are fixedly connected to a handle 313. The outer surfaces of the two sliding bars 312 are sleeved with a limit spring 314. One end of the two limit springs 314 is respectively fixedly connected to the bottom surfaces of the two handles 313, and the other ends of the two limit springs 314 are respectively fixedly connected to the outer surfaces of the two rotating cylinders 311. The two sliding bars 312 are respectively slidably connected to the interior of the two rotating screws 2114. The outer surfaces of the two tooth groove seats 315 are fixedly connected. The upper surfaces of the two tooth groove seats 315 are respectively meshed with the inner walls of the two gear sleeves 309. By providing the positioning mechanism 3, the positions of the hollow screw 2113 and the rotating screw 2114 after rotation can be positioned without affecting the smooth rotation of the hollow screw 2113 and the rotating screw 2114. Furthermore, the position after the distance between the trusses 13 is adjusted can be positioned, so that the trusses 13 are not prone to loosening after fine-tuning the distance on the hollow beam 12 as needed, thereby ensuring the stability of the trusses 13 after the position adjustment.

[0053] Two sliding grooves 316 are provided on one side of the two fixed plates 302, and two sliders 317 are fixedly connected to the bottom surfaces of the two clamping blocks 307. Each slider 317 is slidably connected to the inside of the sliding groove 316. By moving the slider 317 inside the sliding groove 316, not only can the distance of the clamping block 307 when moving downward be limited, but also the tightness of the fit between the clamping block 307 and the fixed plate 302 can be increased, making the clamping block 307 more stable and reliable when moving.

[0054] The specific implementation of this embodiment is as follows: when it is necessary to rotate the hollow screw 2113 to adjust the position of the truss 13 outside the hollow beam 12, first manually hold the handle 308 and press the clamping block 307 downward through the handle 308 until the clamping block 307 drives the slider 317 to slide to the bottom of the sliding groove 316. At this time, the clamping block 307 is disengaged from the toothed plate 301, the connecting spring 306 is contracted, and the guide rod 304 passes through the auxiliary plate 303 and is inserted into the inside of the socket 305. At this time, the handle 308 can be used to coordinate the guide rod 304, the socket 305, the auxiliary plate 303 and the fixed plate 302. When the hollow screw 2113 is rotated, the outer sliding frame 2112 can be used to drive the outer truss 13 of the hollow beam 12 to fine-tune the distance. When the outer truss 13 is fine-tuned, just release the handle 308. The elastic force provided by the connecting spring 306 can push the clamping block 307 to re-engage with the toothed disc 301. When it is necessary to rotate the rotating screw 2114 to fine-tune the position of the truss 13 inside the hollow beam 12, first manually press down the handle 313 to force the limit spring 314 to contract. At the same time, the tooth groove seat 315 will also disengage from the tooth sleeve 309. When the handle 313 is closed, the sliding bar 312 and the auxiliary bearing 310 can be used to rotate the rotating cylinder 311. Since the sliding bar 312 is slidably connected inside the rotating screw 2114, when the rotating cylinder 311 rotates, the rotating screw 2114 can also be driven to rotate through the sliding bar 312. When the rotating screw 2114 rotates, it can cooperate with the inner sliding frame 2112 to drive the inner truss 13 to fine-tune the position. When the position of the inner truss 13 is fine-tuned, just release the handle 313 and use the elastic force provided by the limit spring 314 to push the handle 313 upward. Reset and make the tooth groove seat 315 engage with the gear sleeve 309 again. The engagement of the tooth groove seat 315 and the gear sleeve 309 can prevent the rotating cylinder 311 and the rotating screw 2114 from rotating, so that the positions of the hollow screw 2113 and the rotating screw 2114 after rotation can be located without affecting the smooth rotation of the hollow screw 2113 and the rotating screw 2114, and then the position after the distance between the trusses 13 is adjusted can be located, so that the trusses 13 are not prone to loosening after fine-tuning the distance on the hollow beam 12 as needed, thereby ensuring the stability of the truss 13 after position adjustment.
