[0025] In the above technical scheme, it is taken into account that the traditional RV roof solar panel 2 is usually fixed on the RV roof by bolts or screws, which makes it inconvenient to adjust the angle. In order to solve such problems, the specific operations are as follows: By providing a fixed component, the solar panel 2 can be quickly installed on the RV body 1, saving time and energy during the installation process. By providing a rotating component, the solar panel 2 can be driven to swing, thereby adjusting the angle of the solar panel 2. By adjusting the angle of the solar panel 2, it can be made to always face the sun, receive solar energy to the greatest extent, improve the power generation efficiency of the solar panel 2, and ensure that the solar panel 2 is always in the best power generation state.
[0026] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 In a preferred embodiment, the rotating assembly includes a motor 15, which is arranged at the bottom of the inner wall of the movable groove 13, and the top of the output shaft of the motor 15 is fixedly connected to the first bevel gear 16. The rotating assembly also includes a rotating rod 17, which is rotatably connected to the inside of the housing 4, and a second bevel gear 18 is arranged on the outer side of the rotating rod 17. The first bevel gear 16 is meshed with the second bevel gear 18. A mounting frame 19 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating rod 17, and a fixing rod 20 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting frame 19. The top of the fixing rod 20 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing plate 5. Both ends of the rotating rod 17 extend to the outside of the housing 4 and are rotatably connected to the sleeve 14. The bottom of the fixing plate 5 is equidistantly fixedly connected to a connecting block 21, and one side of the connecting block 21 is rotatably connected to a sliding rod 22, and the outer side of the sliding rod 22 is slidably connected to the inside of the sleeve 14. A second spring 23 is arranged between the bottom of the sliding rod 22 and the bottom of the inner wall of the sleeve 14;
[0027] In the above technical scheme, the problem that the angle of the solar panel 2 needs to be adjusted is taken into consideration. In order to solve such problem, the specific operation is as follows: the first bevel gear 16 is driven to rotate by starting the motor 15, and the meshing relationship between the first bevel gear 16 and the second bevel gear 18 is utilized to drive the second bevel gear 18 and the rotating rod 17 to rotate, and then the mounting frame 19 and the fixed rod 20 are driven to swing, and the fixed plate 5 is driven to swing, and then the solar panel 2 is driven to swing, so that the angle of the solar panel 2 can be adjusted, so that the solar panel 2 can always face the sun, thereby improving the flexibility and convenience of use and receiving solar energy to the greatest extent. The motor 15 is an electrical connection.
[0028] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4In a preferred embodiment, the fixing assembly includes a mounting block 6, which is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate 3 at equal intervals, a bidirectional screw rod 7 is rotatably connected between one side of the mounting block 6, a clamping block 8 is equidistantly threadedly connected to the outer side of the bidirectional screw rod 7, a clamping groove 12 is equidistantly opened on one side of the housing 4, the outer side of the clamping block 8 is slidably connected to the inner side of the clamping groove 12, a first spring 9 is arranged on the outer side of the bidirectional screw rod 7 and on one side of the clamping block 8, and a polygonal notch 10 is opened at one end of the bidirectional screw rod 7;
[0029] In the above technical scheme, considering the existence of the traditional bolt installation method, the bolt fixing needs to drill holes on the roof and fix it. The installation process is relatively complicated and requires professional tools and skills. In order to solve such problems, the specific operations are as follows: first put the shell 4 into the installation groove 11, and then use the tool to insert it into the polygonal notch 10 and rotate it, thereby driving the bidirectional screw 7 to rotate, and driving the two outer blocks 8 close to each other, so that the block 8 enters the slot 12, fixes the shell 4 and the mounting plate 3 together, and then fixes the solar panel 2 on the top of the RV body 1. The operation is simple, convenient and fast. The four-corner simultaneous fixing method can effectively fix the solar panel 2 on the top of the RV body 1, improve the stability and safety of the fixation, and avoid the loosening or falling off of the solar panel 2 due to vibration or other factors.
[0030] Working principle: When in use, first, put the shell 4 into the mounting groove 11, and then use a tool to insert it into the polygonal notch 10 and rotate it, thereby driving the bidirectional screw rod 7 to rotate, and driving the two card blocks 8 on its outer side to approach each other, so that the card block 8 enters the card slot 12, and adopts a four-corner simultaneous fixing method to fix the shell 4 and the mounting plate 3 together, and then fix the solar panel 2 on the top of the RV body 1. When the solar panel 2 needs to be adjusted, the first bevel gear 16 is driven to rotate by starting the motor 15, and the meshing relationship between the first bevel gear 16 and the second bevel gear 18 is utilized to drive the second bevel gear 18 and the rotating rod 17 to rotate, and then drive the mounting frame 19 and the fixing rod 20 to swing, and drive the fixing plate 5 to swing, and then drive the solar panel 2 to swing, so that the angle of the solar panel 2 can be adjusted, so that the solar panel 2 can always face the sun and receive solar energy to the greatest extent. The operation is simple, convenient and fast. The contents not described in detail in this specification belong to the prior art known to professional and technical personnel in this field.
