Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of solar panels, in particular to a self-cleaning solar panel. Background Art
[0002] At present, solar panels are devices that use sunlight to directly or indirectly convert into electrical energy. They are often used in fields such as solar power generation and solar water heaters. However, since the surface of solar panels is easily affected by dust, dirt, etc., which leads to a decrease in their photoelectric conversion efficiency, they need to be cleaned and maintained regularly. Traditional solar panel cleaning methods mainly rely on manual labor, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also inefficient. Frequent manual cleaning may also cause damage to solar panels, further reducing their service life and power generation efficiency. Therefore, in order to solve this problem, researchers began to develop automatic cleaning devices for solar panels.
[0003] The authorization announcement number in the prior art is: CN214125219U, a self-cleaning solar panel, the patent feature is that a T-frame is vertically installed on the bottom plate, the T-frame is hinged to one end of the solar panel body, and the other end of the solar panel body is hinged to the telescopic end of the telescopic mechanism. This design can adjust the inclination angle of the solar panel body so that the solar panel body can be aligned with the sunlight source. At the same time, slide rails are relatively arranged on both sides of the surface of the solar panel body. The slider is driven by the driving mechanism to reciprocate along the slide rail, and the sponge sleeve at the bottom of the slider is used for cleaning. When encountering climate changes such as rain or typhoon, the driving mechanism drives the slider to move in the direction of the telescopic mechanism, and the waterproof film on the connecting rod can be laid on the surface of the solar panel body to play a waterproof role and prevent the light-receiving surface of the solar panel body from being damaged;
[0004] However, the patent does not clean thoroughly enough during use. If it is not cleaned in time, the efficiency of solar panels absorbing sunlight will be reduced, affecting the working efficiency of the solar panels and causing unnecessary losses. In addition, the waterproof film of the patent can only cover part of the solar panel during use, which will still cause water to enter the solar panel and cause damage. Utility Model Content
