Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of photovoltaic cleaning, in particular to a crawler-type photovoltaic cleaning robot. Background Art

[0002] With the popularization of distributed photovoltaic power generation, a large number of photovoltaic power stations have been installed on roofs. However, photovoltaic panels are outdoors, so dust will fall on the surface of photovoltaic panels, reducing the power generation efficiency of photovoltaic panels. In order to improve power generation efficiency, many projects also install trackless rubber wheel walking cleaning robots to clean dust and dirt on the surface of photovoltaic panels. When there is a height difference between the joints of photovoltaic panels, it is easy to slip on the spot when walking, which can easily lead to walking suspension. After raining, when there are water stains on the frame of the photovoltaic panel, it is easy to slip on the spot when walking, which can easily lead to walking suspension. Therefore, technicians in this field have proposed a crawler photovoltaic cleaning robot. Utility Model Content

[0028] Unless otherwise specified, the exemplary embodiments / embodiments shown will be understood as providing exemplary features of various details of some ways in which the technical concept of the present disclosure can be implemented in practice. Therefore, unless otherwise specified, the features of the various embodiments / embodiments can be combined, separated, interchanged and / or rearranged without departing from the technical concept of the present disclosure.

[0029] The use of cross-hatching and / or shading in the accompanying drawings is generally used to make the boundaries between adjacent components clear. As such, unless otherwise specified, the presence or absence of cross-hatching or shading does not convey or indicate any preference or requirement for the specific materials, material properties, dimensions, proportions, commonalities between the components shown, and / or any other characteristics, attributes, properties, etc. of the components. In addition, in the accompanying drawings, the sizes and relative sizes of the components may be exaggerated for clarity and / or descriptive purposes. When the exemplary embodiments can be implemented differently, the specific process sequence can be performed in a different order than described. For example, two successively described processes can be performed substantially simultaneously or in an order opposite to the described order. In addition, the same figure numbers represent the same components.

[0030] When a component is referred to as being "on" or "over," "connected to," or "coupled to" another component, the component may be directly on, directly connected to, or directly coupled to the other component, or intervening components may be present. However, when a component is referred to as being "directly on," "directly connected to," or "directly coupled to" another component, there are no intervening components.
