In the drawings, the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar components or components having the same or similar functions throughout.

[0053] Furthermore, the terms “comprising” and “having”, and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not explicitly listed or that are inherent to such process, method, product, or apparatus.
[0054] A car tent is a foldable outdoor piece of equipment that can be installed on the roof of a vehicle. Using the roof rack as a support, it unfolds to create a separate sleeping space. The core feature of a car tent is that it moves the traditional ground tent to the roof of the vehicle, combining convenience and safety. Users primarily use car tents for outdoor travel or camping.
[0055] As mentioned in the background section, vehicle-mounted tents are primarily for storage or accommodation, offering limited functionality and failing to meet diverse user needs. For instance, when engaging in various activities such as lighting, cooking, communication, and audio-visual entertainment during outdoor travel or camping, users require power. However, when no fixed power source is available, users typically choose to keep the engine of a gasoline-powered vehicle running for extended periods, utilizing the vehicle's battery, or directly using the battery pack from a new energy vehicle. Prolonged engine operation can easily cause the vehicle to overheat, impacting its performance; directly using the battery pack from a new energy vehicle carries the risk of running out of power and being unable to return. Furthermore, regardless of whether using the gasoline-powered vehicle's battery or the new energy vehicle's battery pack, the location of the power source is not easily relocated, which limits the user's camping activities around the vehicle.
[0056] To address the aforementioned technical issues, this application provides a vehicle-mounted tent and vehicle with a photovoltaic system. In this solution, the vehicle-mounted tent with the photovoltaic system includes a base mechanism, a first photovoltaic panel, a top cover assembly, a second photovoltaic panel, and an energy storage assembly. The base mechanism is mounted on the vehicle and has a first receiving cavity. The first photovoltaic panel is slidably connected to the base mechanism so that at least a portion of the first photovoltaic panel extends outside the first receiving cavity, or the first photovoltaic panel is housed within the first receiving cavity. The top cover assembly is located on the side of the base mechanism away from the vehicle and is movable toward or away from the base mechanism. The second photovoltaic panel is mounted on the top cover assembly. The energy storage assembly is at least partially detachably mounted on one of the base mechanism and the top cover assembly, and is electrically connected to both the first and second photovoltaic panels.
[0057] By setting a base mechanism with a first receiving cavity, the first photovoltaic panel can be slidably extended and retracted, ensuring a low wind resistance design during transportation and allowing it to be unfolded when parked to increase the light-receiving area and improve power generation. The upper cover component can be opened and closed relative to the base mechanism to form an independent accommodation space to meet the user's accommodation needs, without affecting the power generation efficiency of the second photovoltaic panel. The first photovoltaic panel can be used as needed to increase power generation, while the second photovoltaic panel provides basic power generation. Combined with energy storage components, it can store electrical energy to meet the user's outdoor power needs without consuming the vehicle's own power supply. In addition, the partially detachable design of the energy storage components allows users to easily take part of the energy storage components to the power consumption location, adapting to various power consumption scenarios and improving the user experience.
[0058] It should be noted that, Figures 1 to 7 This diagram illustrates a simplified schematic of a vehicle-mounted tent with a photovoltaic system and its components. The specific structures of the remaining components in the vehicle-mounted tent with a photovoltaic system are not limited to... Figures 1 to 7 of examples.
[0059] The present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0060] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in the embodiment of this application, a vehicle-mounted tent with a photovoltaic system is provided for installation on a vehicle. For example, the vehicle-mounted tent with a photovoltaic system can be fixed to the luggage rack on the top of the vehicle, or it can be detachably connected to the luggage rack by fastener 20. Of course, in some other usage scenarios, the above-mentioned vehicle-mounted tent with a photovoltaic system can also be applied to non-vehicle facilities, such as being placed directly in a park or on grass. This embodiment of the application does not limit the location of use of the vehicle-mounted tent with a photovoltaic system.
[0061] The vehicle-mounted tent with a photovoltaic system includes a base mechanism 100, a first photovoltaic panel 200, a top cover assembly 300, a second photovoltaic panel 400, and an energy storage assembly 500. The first photovoltaic panel 200 and the second photovoltaic panel 400 are existing technologies in the relevant field, and no restrictions are placed on their internal structures. Both the first photovoltaic panel 200 and the second photovoltaic panel are capable of converting solar energy into electrical energy.
[0062] The base mechanism 100 is used for mounting on a vehicle; this can be understood as the base mechanism 100 serving as a mounting foundation for a vehicle-mounted tent with a photovoltaic system. The base mechanism 100 is provided with a first receiving cavity 101; a first photovoltaic panel 200 is slidably connected to the base mechanism 100, such that at least a portion of the first photovoltaic panel 200 extends outside the first receiving cavity 101, or the first photovoltaic panel 200 is housed within the first receiving cavity 101. (Refer to...) Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first photovoltaic panel 200 has two states: retracted and unfolded. When the first photovoltaic panel 200 is retracted, it is located inside the first receiving cavity 101. When the first photovoltaic panel 200 is unfolded, part of its structure is located outside the first receiving cavity 101. When the first photovoltaic panel 200 is unfolded, it can increase the light-receiving area, convert more solar energy into electrical energy, and increase the power generation.
[0063] The upper cover assembly 300 is located on the side of the base mechanism 100 opposite to the vehicle. The upper cover assembly 300 can move toward or away from the base mechanism 100; this can be understood as the upper cover assembly 300 having two states: folded and unfolded. The upper cover assembly 300 moves toward the base mechanism 100 to achieve... Figure 1In the folded state shown, the vehicle-mounted tent with photovoltaic system occupies little space, ensuring a low wind resistance design when the vehicle is in motion; the upper cover assembly 300 moves away from the base mechanism 100 to achieve... Figure 2 As shown in the unfolded state, the upper cover assembly 300 and the base mechanism 100 form a living space for users to rest or store items. The vehicle-mounted tent with a photovoltaic system also includes a tent fabric 10, whose upper and lower ends are connected to the upper cover assembly 300 and the base mechanism 100, respectively. When the upper cover assembly 300 is unfolded, the tent fabric 10, the upper cover assembly 300, and the base mechanism 100 together enclose the living space, preventing insects or sand from entering and improving the user experience. Furthermore, the tent fabric 10 can be folded or unfolded as the upper cover assembly 300 moves. When the upper cover assembly 300 moves towards the base mechanism 100, the tent fabric 10 can be folded synchronously with the folding of the upper cover assembly 300.
[0064] Furthermore, the tent fabric 10 is provided with at least one of the following: windows, vents, and an openable curtain, for user convenience.
[0065] The second photovoltaic panel 400 is mounted on the upper cover assembly 300; specifically, the second photovoltaic panel 400 is positioned on top of the upper cover assembly 300, and the light-receiving surface of the second photovoltaic panel 400 always faces upwards. Thus, under conditions of sunlight, the second photovoltaic panel 400 can always generate electricity, whether the upper cover assembly 300 is folded or unfolded.
[0066] The energy storage component 500 is at least partially detachably mounted on one of the base mechanism 100 and the top cover assembly 300. The energy storage component 500 is electrically connected to both the first photovoltaic panel 200 and the second photovoltaic panel 400. For example, a portion of the energy storage component 500 may be detachably mounted on the base mechanism 100, or a portion of the energy storage component 500 may be detachably mounted on the top cover assembly 300, or at least a portion of the energy storage component 500 may be detachably mounted on the base mechanism 100 while another portion is mounted on the top cover assembly 300.
[0067] like Figure 3 As shown, in order to improve the stability of the energy storage component 500, in this embodiment of the application, it is preferable that a portion of the energy storage component 500 is detachably mounted on the base mechanism 100. The base mechanism 100 is directly connected to the vehicle, and compared to the movable upper cover component 300, it has better structural stability.
[0068] In the above embodiment, by setting a base mechanism 100 with a first receiving cavity 101, the first photovoltaic panel 200 can be slidably extended and retracted, which not only ensures a low wind resistance shape during transportation, but also allows it to be extended when parked to increase the light-receiving area and improve power generation.
[0069] The top cover component 300 can be opened and closed relative to the base mechanism 100 to form an independent accommodation space to meet the user's accommodation needs, while not affecting the power generation efficiency of the second photovoltaic panel 400. The first photovoltaic panel 200 can be used as needed to increase power generation, and the second photovoltaic panel 400 provides basic power generation. Combined with the energy storage component 500, it realizes the storage of electrical energy to meet the user's outdoor power needs. In addition, the partial detachable design of the energy storage component 500 allows users to easily take part of the energy storage component 500 to other power usage locations, adapting to various power usage scenarios and improving the user experience.
[0070] Here, the energy storage component 500 can also be electrically connected to the battery of a fuel vehicle or the battery pack of a new energy vehicle. The electrical energy generated by the first photovoltaic panel 200 and the second photovoltaic panel 400 can also be used to charge the battery or battery pack through the energy storage component 500, making full use of clean energy.
[0071] In one possible implementation, the base mechanism 100 includes a mounting bracket 110 and a guide rail assembly 120. The mounting bracket 110 has a first receiving cavity 101, and its bottom is used to secure it to a vehicle via a plurality of fasteners 20. For example, the fasteners 20 can be clamps, with the mounting bracket 110 secured to the vehicle's roof rack via multiple clamps; alternatively, the fasteners 20 can be bolts, with the mounting bracket 110 secured to the vehicle via bolts. This application does not limit the specific structure of the fasteners 20, as long as they satisfy the requirement for securing the mounting bracket 110 to the vehicle.
[0072] The guide rail assembly 120 includes a first slide rail 121 and a second slide rail 122 that are slidably connected. One of the first slide rail 121 and the second slide rail 122 is connected to the mounting bracket 110, and the other of the first slide rail 121 and the second slide rail 122 is connected to the first photovoltaic panel 200. (Refer to...) Figure 3 As shown, the first slide rail 121 is connected to the first photovoltaic panel 200. Specifically, the first photovoltaic panel 200 has a first slide rail 121 at both ends in the length direction, as shown in the figure. Figure 3 In the direction indicated by the X arrow, both the front and rear ends of the first photovoltaic panel 200 are connected to the first slide rail 121. The extension direction of the first slide rail 121 is consistent with the width direction of the first photovoltaic panel 200, that is, along... Figure 3 Extend in the direction indicated by the Y-arrow.
[0073] The second slide rail 122 is connected to the mounting bracket 110. Specifically, the second slide rail 122 is disposed on the inner wall of the first receiving cavity 101. The extension direction of the second slide rail 122 is consistent with the extension direction of the first slide rail 121, and the first slide rail 121 and the corresponding second slide rail 122 are interlocked.
[0074] Unless otherwise stated, the directions indicated by the X, Y, and Z arrows in the attached diagram are mutually perpendicular in three-dimensional space.
[0075] The first slide rail 121 moves relative to the second slide rail 122 so that at least part of the first photovoltaic panel 200 extends outside the first receiving cavity 101, or the first photovoltaic panel 200 is housed inside the first receiving cavity 101.
[0076] Here, the second slide rail 122 can be entirely located within the first receiving cavity 101 and fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 110. Alternatively, it can be slidably connected to the mounting bracket 110, allowing a portion of the second slide rail 122 to extend out of the first receiving cavity 101. This facilitates the formation of a graded telescopic structure with the first slide rail 121, thereby improving the stability of the first photovoltaic panel 200.
[0077] In the above embodiment, the first slide rail 121 and the second slide rail 122 form a sliding pair to ensure that the first photovoltaic panel 200 smoothly enters and exits the first receiving cavity 101 along the preset track. The guide rail assembly 120 has a simple structure and can avoid problems such as shaking or jamming. It is convenient for users to push and pull the first photovoltaic panel 200 to complete the storage and unfolding of the first photovoltaic panel 200, and at the same time, it is convenient for later maintenance.
[0078] By designing the lengths of the first slide rail 121 and the second slide rail 122, the extension range of the first photovoltaic panel 200 is limited, which prevents it from extending too far out of the first receiving cavity 101 and causing structural imbalance, while ensuring compactness when fully retracted, thus balancing safety and aesthetics.
[0079] In one possible implementation, the mounting bracket 110 has an opening 1101 on one side along its length, connecting the first receiving cavity 101 to the external environment. At least a portion of the first photovoltaic panel 200 passes through the opening 1101 to extend outside the first receiving cavity 101. Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the mounting bracket 110 has an opening 1101 on its side wall in the X direction, allowing the first photovoltaic panel 200 to extend out of the first receiving cavity 101 towards the X direction. Thus, as... Figure 4 As shown, after the first photovoltaic panel 200 extends out of the first receiving cavity 101, it also has a sunshade effect on the side of the vehicle. The bottom of the first photovoltaic panel 200 also has a rain shelter function, further increasing the usage scenarios and meeting diverse usage needs.
[0080] Furthermore, the vehicle-mounted tent with a photovoltaic system also includes a folding ladder 30, which is located on one side of the vehicle in the X direction, and one end of the folding ladder 30 is detachably connected to the base mechanism 100.
[0081] In one possible implementation, the base mechanism 100 further includes a first telescopic member 130, which is electrically connected to the energy storage component 500, and the energy storage component 500 supplies power to the first telescopic member 130. The first telescopic member 130 includes a fixed part 131 and a movable part 132; the fixed part 131 is connected to the mounting frame 110, and the movable part 132 is connected to the first photovoltaic panel 200. The movable part 132 can extend and retract relative to the fixed part 131 to drive the first photovoltaic panel 200 to move relative to the mounting frame 110. The extension and retraction direction of the movable part 132 is parallel to the movement direction of the first photovoltaic panel 200.
[0082] In the above embodiments, reference is made to Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first telescopic member 130 is directly powered by the energy storage component 500, which can convert the mechanical action of manually pushing and pulling the first photovoltaic panel 200 into electrically controlled linear motion, reducing the intensity of operation. The fixing part 131 of the first telescopic member 130 includes a motor and a transmission component (not shown in the figure).
[0083] The motor is directly powered by the energy storage component 500. The transmission component connects the output end of the motor and the movable part 132, converting the output power of the motor into the extension and retraction power of the movable part 132. Here, the transmission component can be a bevel gear set or a lead screw. This embodiment does not limit the specific structure of the transmission component. By setting the first telescopic component 130 and directly powering it by the energy storage component 500, the operation difficulty is further simplified and the user experience is improved.
[0084] In a specific implementation, the first telescopic member 130 is used to be set on the side of the first photovoltaic panel 200 facing the vehicle, and the movable part 132 is set in the middle of the first photovoltaic panel 200 in the direction of movement perpendicular to the first photovoltaic panel 200.
[0085] In this way, the first telescopic member 130 is positioned on the backlight side of the first photovoltaic panel 200. This arrangement ensures that the first photovoltaic panel 200's light-receiving capacity is not affected, thus avoiding any impact on power generation. In the direction perpendicular to the movement of the first photovoltaic panel 200, i.e. Figure 5 In the direction indicated by the X arrow, by setting the movable part 132 in the middle of the first photovoltaic panel 200 along the X direction, the forces on both sides of the first photovoltaic panel 200 can be balanced, avoiding the phenomenon of slippage and jamming caused by uneven forces on both sides of the first photovoltaic panel 200.
[0086] In one possible implementation, the energy storage component 500 includes a first battery 510 and a second battery 520 electrically connected to the first battery 510; the base mechanism 100 is provided with a second receiving cavity 102, and both the first battery 510 and the second battery 520 are detachably disposed in the second receiving cavity 102.
[0087] At least one of the first battery 510 and the second battery 520 is used for conductive connection with the vehicle's battery, and at least one of the first battery 510 and the second battery 520 is conductively connected to both the first photovoltaic panel 200 and the second photovoltaic panel 400.
[0088] In the above embodiments, both the first battery 510 and the second battery 520 are rechargeable batteries. The base mechanism 100 is provided with a second receiving cavity 102, in which the first battery 510 and the second battery 520 are disposed and detachably connected to the base mechanism 100. The second receiving cavity 102 provides an installation position and a fixing position for the first battery 510 and the second battery 520, improving the stability of the first battery 510 and the second battery 520. The first photovoltaic panel 200 and the second photovoltaic panel 400 may be electrically connected to the first battery 510, and the first photovoltaic panel 200 and the second photovoltaic panel 400 may be electrically connected to the second battery 520, or the first photovoltaic panel 200 and the second photovoltaic panel 400 may be electrically connected to both the first battery 510 and the second battery 520.
[0089] In this way, the electrical energy generated by the first photovoltaic panel 200 and the second photovoltaic panel 400 can be stored in the first battery 510 and / or the second battery 520. The first battery 510 and / or the second battery 520 are electrically connected to the vehicle's battery, which can be understood as a rechargeable battery in a broad sense, such as a battery in a fuel-powered vehicle or a battery pack in a new energy vehicle.
[0090] The electrical energy generated by the first photovoltaic panel 200 and the second photovoltaic panel 400 can also be used to charge the vehicle's battery through the first battery 510 and / or the second battery 520, thereby improving energy utilization. Furthermore, the first battery 510 and the second battery 520 can be used as emergency backup power in special circumstances, such as starting the vehicle through a dedicated inverter in extreme situations to solve the problem of power loss in the wild.
[0091] Furthermore, the first battery 510 and the second battery 520 are detachably connected to the mounting bracket 110, meaning that the user can remove the first battery 510 and / or the second battery 520 from the second receiving cavity 102. The detachable connection between the first battery 510 and the second battery 520 and the mounting bracket 110 can be achieved through bolts or by placing the first battery 510 and the second battery 520 directly within the second receiving cavity 102; this facilitates the user in removing the first battery 510 and / or the second battery 520 to other power-consuming locations, increasing usage scenarios and improving practicality.
[0092] In certain usage scenarios, users can remove one of the first battery 510 and the second battery 520 to other power-consuming locations, while the other remains electrically connected to the first photovoltaic panel 200 and the second photovoltaic panel 400. In this way, while conveniently using the portable power source (one of the first battery 510 and the second battery 520), the power generation and energy storage of the first photovoltaic panel 200 and the second photovoltaic panel 400 are not affected, thereby meeting more of the user's power needs.
[0093] Furthermore, at least one of the first battery 510 and the second battery 520 is provided with a handle 40, which allows the user to easily pick up the first battery 510 and / or the second battery 520.
[0094] In one possible implementation, for improved convenience, refer to Figure 7 As shown, it also includes a flip cover 530, which is rotatably connected to the base mechanism 100. The flip cover 530 can close or open the second receiving cavity 102. Specifically, one side of the flip cover 530 is rotatably connected to the mounting bracket 110, for example, the flip cover 530 is rotatably connected to the mounting bracket 110 via a hinge. The mounting bracket 110 may also be provided with a buckle 50, which, in conjunction with the snap-fit operation between the buckle 50 and the flip cover 530, can complete the fixation of the flip cover 530. The buckle 50 is a mature technology in the relevant technical field, and the structure of the buckle 50 in this embodiment is not limited.
[0095] In the above embodiment, when the user needs to access the first battery 510 and / or the second battery 520, they first release the latch 50, rotate the flip cover 530, and open the second receiving cavity 102 to easily access the first battery 510 and / or the second battery 520. It should be noted here that... Figure 7 The positions of the first battery 510 and the second battery 520 are for illustrative purposes only, and the actual arrangement of the first battery 510 and the second battery 520 is not limited in actual use.
[0096] In one possible implementation, to further improve the practicality of the energy storage component 500, a clearance opening 5301 is provided on the flip cover 530. Multiple charging ports 60, such as multiple USB connectors or Type-C connectors, are provided on the first battery 510 or the second battery 520 at positions corresponding to the clearance opening 5301. This allows users to charge electronic devices such as mobile phones or tablets via the charging ports 60 while resting in their accommodation, enhancing the user experience.
[0097] In one possible implementation, the vehicle-mounted tent with a photovoltaic system also includes at least two lifting components 600, which are disposed between the base mechanism 100 and the top cover assembly 300, and the at least two lifting components 600 are arranged at intervals along the length or width direction of the base mechanism 100.
[0098] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the two lifting components 600 can be arranged at intervals along the length of the base mechanism 100, that is, the two lifting components 600 are arranged in the direction indicated by the X arrow, and the two lifting components 600 are respectively set at both ends of the base mechanism 100.
[0099] The lifting assembly 600 includes a second telescopic member 610, a first support leg 620, and a second support leg 630 that is intersected with the first support leg 620; one end of the first support leg 620 and the second support leg 630 is movably connected to the base mechanism 100, and the other end of the first support leg 620 and the second support leg 630 is movably connected to the upper cover assembly 300.
[0100] One end of the second telescopic member 610 is rotatably connected to the first support leg 620, and the other end of the second telescopic member 610 is rotatably connected to the second support leg 630. The cross-arranged first support leg 620 and second support leg 630 combine to form an X-shaped support leg structure, creating a triangular stability zone. Combined with the preload of the second telescopic member 610, this effectively resists the shearing damage of lateral wind forces to the vehicle-mounted tent with the photovoltaic system, improving the structural fatigue strength.
[0101] The second telescopic member 610 is configured to change the distance between the same end of the first leg 620 and the second leg 630, thereby changing the distance between the upper cover assembly 300 and the base mechanism 100.
[0102] The second telescopic component 610 drives the first leg 620 and the second leg 630, which are arranged in a cross pattern, to move synchronously. This allows for continuous adjustment of the distance between the upper cover assembly 300 and the base mechanism 100, thereby enabling the upper cover assembly 300 to be raised or lowered.
[0103] The lifting assembly 600 also includes a first connecting plate 640 and a second connecting plate 650 opposite to the first connecting plate 640. One of the first connecting plate 640 and the second connecting plate 650 is fixed to the upper cover assembly 300, and the other is fixed to the base mechanism 100.
[0104] For example, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first connecting plate 640 is fixed to the mounting bracket 110 of the base mechanism 100, and the first connecting plate 640 can be connected to the mounting bracket 110 by bolts or the like. The second connecting plate 650 can be fixed to the upper cover assembly 300 by bolts. By setting the first connecting plate 640 and the second connecting plate 650, the contact area between the first and second legs and the base mechanism 100 and the upper cover assembly 300 can be increased, reducing local stress concentration, effectively dispersing stress, and improving the movement stability of the upper cover assembly 300. In addition, it helps to keep the upper cover assembly 300 horizontal.
[0105] The first end of the first leg 620 is rotatably connected to the first connecting plate 640, and the first end of the first leg 620 is fixed relative to the first connecting plate 640. The second end of the first leg 620 is rotatably connected to the second connecting plate 650, and the second end of the first leg 620 slides relative to the second connecting plate 650. Specifically, the first end of the first leg 620 is hinged to the first connecting plate 640, and the hinge point is fixed relative to the first connecting plate 640. The second end of the first leg 620 can be slidably connected to the second connecting plate 650 through a connector, and the second end of the first leg 620 is hinged to the connector; the connector can slide along the length direction of the second connecting plate 650, and the connector is slidably connected to the second connecting plate 650.
[0106] The first end of the second leg 630 is rotatably connected to the first connecting plate 640, and the first end of the second leg 630 slides relative to the first connecting plate 640. The second end of the second leg 630 is rotatably connected to the second connecting plate 650, and the second end of the second leg 630 is fixed relative to the second connecting plate 650. In a specific implementation, the first end of the second leg 630 is slidably connected to the first connecting plate 640 through a connector. The connector is slidably connected to the first connecting plate 640 and can slide along the length direction of the first connecting plate 640. The first end of the second leg 630 is hinged to the connector. The second end of the second leg 630 is hinged to the second connecting plate 650, and the hinge point is fixed relative to the second connecting plate 650.
[0107] In the above configuration, the connecting component can be a slider. The first connecting plate 640 and the second connecting plate 650 have grooves that are adapted to the slider, and the slider slides within the grooves.
[0108] Here, refer to Figure 6 As shown, the fixed end of the second telescopic member 610 is hinged to the first end of the first leg 620, and the movable end of the second telescopic member 610 is hinged to the second leg 630. There is a gap between the hinge point of the movable end of the second telescopic member 610 and the hinge point of the second leg 630 and the hinge point of the first leg 620 and the second leg 630; and the projection of the second telescopic member 610 toward the first leg 620 is located within the first leg 620. By extending and retracting the second telescopic member 610, the distance between the same ends of the first leg 620 and the second leg 630 can be changed. For example, changing... Figure 6 The distance between the ends of the first leg 620 and the second leg 630 in the Y-direction changes the distance in the Z-direction, thereby enabling the upper cover assembly 300 to rise and fall.
[0109] In one possible implementation, the top cover assembly 300 includes a cover plate 310 and a first extension 320 surrounding the cover plate 310 in a circumferential direction. The first extension 320 is connected to the cover plate 310 and extends toward the base mechanism 100. Alternatively, the first extension 320 is integrally formed with the cover plate 310. The base mechanism 100 also includes a second extension 140 surrounding the mounting frame 110 in a circumferential direction. The second extension 140 is connected to the mounting frame 110 and extends toward the cover plate 310. When the vehicle-mounted tent with the photovoltaic system is folded, the first extension 320 and the second extension 140 abut against each other, at least covering one of the mounting frame 110, the energy storage component 500, or the lifting component 600. This can prevent external sand and rainwater from eroding the mounting frame 110, the energy storage component 500, or the lifting component 600, improving the protection effect. The first extension 320 and the second extension 140 can be plastic exterior parts, which have a weight reduction effect and can enrich the diversity of appearance design.
[0110] In one possible implementation, this application provides a vehicle including a body 70 and the aforementioned vehicle-mounted tent with a photovoltaic system. The structure of the vehicle-mounted tent with the photovoltaic system has been described in detail above and will not be repeated here. This vehicle possesses the technical effects of the aforementioned vehicle-mounted tent with a photovoltaic system, namely, it can meet the diverse usage needs of users. In this application embodiment, the vehicle can be a gasoline-powered vehicle, a natural gas-powered vehicle, or a new energy vehicle, and the new energy vehicle can be a pure electric vehicle, a hybrid electric vehicle, or a range-extended vehicle, etc. This application embodiment does not limit the specific structure of the vehicle.
[0111] The vehicles mentioned in this application embodiment can also refer to large cars, small cars, special-purpose vehicles, etc. For example, according to vehicle type, the vehicles in this application embodiment can be sedans, off-road vehicles, multi-purpose vehicles (MPVs), or other types of vehicles. Of course, they can also be other types of vehicles, and this application embodiment does not limit them.
[0112] In one possible implementation, an automatic solar tracking system is also included. This system can be mounted on a vehicle-mounted tent with a photovoltaic system or on the vehicle body. Specifically, the first photovoltaic panel 200 and the second photovoltaic panel 400 can both be connected to the vehicle-mounted tent with the photovoltaic system via a concealed dual-axis gimbal, or both can be connected to the vehicle body via a concealed dual-axis gimbal. The automatic solar tracking system includes a solar azimuth sensor, a lidar sensor, and an inclinometer. By sensing light intensity, shadows, and slope in real time, the angles of the first photovoltaic panel 200 and the second photovoltaic panel 400 are adjusted to increase the illuminated area, improve light utilization, and enhance the user experience.
[0113] The implementation principle of a vehicle-mounted tent and vehicle with a photovoltaic system according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: The vehicle-mounted tent with a photovoltaic system includes a base mechanism 100, a first photovoltaic panel 200, a top cover assembly 300, a second photovoltaic panel 400, and an energy storage assembly 500. The base mechanism 100 is used to mount on the vehicle and is provided with a first receiving cavity 101; the first photovoltaic panel 200 is slidably connected to the base mechanism 100 so that at least a portion of the first photovoltaic panel 200 extends outside the first receiving cavity 101, or the first photovoltaic panel 200 is housed inside the first receiving cavity 101; the top cover assembly 300 is disposed on the side of the base mechanism 100 away from the vehicle, and the top cover assembly 300 can move toward or away from the base mechanism 100; the second photovoltaic panel 400 is disposed on the top cover assembly 300; the energy storage assembly 500 is at least partially detachably disposed on one of the base mechanism 100 and the top cover assembly 300, and the energy storage assembly 500 is electrically connected to both the first photovoltaic panel 200 and the second photovoltaic panel 400.
[0114] By setting a base mechanism 100 with a first receiving cavity 101, the first photovoltaic panel 200 can be slidably extended and retracted, ensuring a low wind resistance design during transportation and allowing it to be unfolded when parked to increase the light-receiving area and improve power generation. The upper cover component 300 can be opened and closed relative to the base mechanism 100 to form an independent accommodation space to meet the user's accommodation needs, without affecting the power generation efficiency of the second photovoltaic panel 400. The first photovoltaic panel 200 can be used as needed to increase power generation, and the second photovoltaic panel 400 provides basic power generation. Combined with the energy storage component 500, it can store electrical energy to meet the user's outdoor power needs. In addition, the partially detachable design of the energy storage component 500 allows users to easily take part of the energy storage component 500 to the power consumption location, adapting to various power consumption scenarios and improving the user experience.
