Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of photovoltaic component cleaning, and in particular relates to a photovoltaic building component cleaning device. Background Art

[0002] Photovoltaic modules, also known as solar panels, are the core of solar power generation systems. Their main function is to convert solar energy into electrical energy. Photovoltaic modules can be specially designed to adapt to the building environment, such as building curtain walls, roofs, awnings, etc. These photovoltaic modules not only have the function of generating electricity, but also can be integrated with the appearance of the building, achieving the unity of beauty and practicality.

[0003] Photovoltaic modules used in buildings may be installed in areas that are difficult to access, such as on the outside of glass or on the exterior walls of buildings at high altitudes. When photovoltaic modules are exposed to outdoor environments for a long time, dust and other dirt will accumulate on the surface of the modules, which will block sunlight and reduce the efficiency of the modules. When photovoltaic modules are installed in areas that are difficult to access, after they have been running for a period of time, their surfaces need to be cleaned to restore their power generation efficiency. For example, operators can approach photovoltaic modules and use flushing devices to flush the surfaces of photovoltaic modules. At this time, operators are at safety risks during the cleaning process, and because operators need to clean slowly and take protective measures due to the location where the photovoltaic modules are installed, these will affect the progress of cleaning the photovoltaic modules, especially when multiple photovoltaic modules need to be cleaned continuously.

[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a photovoltaic building component cleaning device to solve the problems in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0020] Such a design can prevent part of the water from being separated from the guide member along the extension direction of the guide member during the guiding process of the guide member.

[0034] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the utility model provides a photovoltaic building component cleaning device, comprising:

[0037] The water storage member 1 has a water storage chamber 101 with an upward opening for carrying water. A water outlet 102 connected to the water storage chamber 101 is provided at the bottom of the water storage member 1. The extension direction of the water outlet 102 and the extension direction of the water storage chamber 101 are both the same as the extension direction of the water storage member 1. When the water storage member 1 is working, the water storage member 1 is installed on the top of the photovoltaic module;

[0038] The water pipe 2 has an inner cavity and is detachably mounted on the water storage member 1. The water storage member 1 is provided with a water inlet hole 103 for communicating with the inner cavity of the water pipe 2. The water inlet hole 103 is connected to the water storage cavity 101.

[0039] The driving part 3 is installed on the wall of the water storage chamber 101. The driving part 3 is connected with a blocking member 4 for blocking the opening of the water outlet hole 102. The driving part 3 can drive the blocking member 4 to make a reciprocating motion in the vertical direction.

[0040] And a control component 5 is electrically connected to the driving part 3 and is used to control the operation of the driving part 3.

[0041] When the photovoltaic building module cleaning device is working, the water storage part 1 is installed on the top of the photovoltaic module, so that the water flow can wash away the dust and other debris on the surface of the photovoltaic module during the descent process; in the specific cleaning process, the operator can connect the water pipe 2 with the water delivery device (such as a faucet), and the water enters the water storage chamber 101 through the water pipe 2, and then the water leaves the water storage chamber 101 through the water outlet 102 and starts to wash the surface of the photovoltaic module. During this period, the operator can control the operation of the driving part 3 through the control part 5. The water pipe 2 can also be connected to the water delivery device immediately after installation and remain connected.

[0042] Optionally, the control component 5 is configured as a controller; and the driving part 3 is configured as a cylinder.

[0043] By setting the water storage component 1 and setting the extension direction of the water outlet 102 and the extension direction of the water storage chamber 101 to be the same as the extension direction of the water storage component 1, water can be gathered in the water storage chamber 101 and then leave the water storage chamber 101, thereby increasing the flushing force of the water. At the same time, the distribution range of the water after leaving the water storage chamber 101 can also be expanded, so that it can flush various parts of the surface of the photovoltaic module.

[0044] By setting the control member 5 and the driving unit 3, when cleaning the photovoltaic modules installed on the building, it is possible to avoid the operator directly cleaning the photovoltaic modules, thereby avoiding safety accidents when the photovoltaic modules are installed in areas that are difficult to approach, such as high altitudes or outside glass, and at the same time, the cleaning progress can be accelerated. When the photovoltaic modules are installed outside the glass, it is generally necessary to open a hole on the glass for the water pipe 2 to pass through.

[0045] It should be noted that the extension direction mentioned in the present invention refers to the length direction.

[0046] Example 2

[0047] In this embodiment, a covering member 6 is installed on the top of the water storage member 1 . The covering member 6 can move relative to the water storage member 1 . The covering member 6 is used to cover the opening of the water storage chamber 101 .

[0048] The cover 6 is used to cover the opening of the water storage chamber 101. Generally, the cover 6 is in a state of covering the opening of the water storage chamber 101. On the one hand, it can prevent water from flowing out through the opening of the water storage chamber 101. On the other hand, it can prevent more rainwater or debris from entering the water storage chamber 101.

[0049] Example 3

[0050] In this embodiment, along the extension direction of the water storage component 1, a water outlet pipe 7 is detachably installed on any side wall of the water storage component 1 and is provided with a water outlet 104. The water outlet pipe 7 has an inner cavity, and the water outlet 104 is used to communicate with the inner cavity of the water outlet pipe 7. The water outlet 104 is connected to the water storage cavity 101.

[0051] When there are multiple photovoltaic modules installed on the building and arranged in parallel, such as when there are two photovoltaic modules, two photovoltaic building module cleaning devices can be set up to clean the two photovoltaic modules respectively. Through the setting of the water outlet pipe 7, when the water outlet pipes 7 in the two photovoltaic building module cleaning devices are stably connected by bonding or the like, water can be supplied to the two water storage chambers 101 only through the water supply pipe 2 in one of the photovoltaic building module cleaning devices, thereby reducing the number of water supply devices required and the workload of operators. In some cases, such as when the photovoltaic module is installed on the outside of the glass and it is necessary to open a hole on the glass for the water supply pipe 2 to pass through, the number of openings on the glass can be reduced, and the setting of the cover 6 promotes the realization of the above effect. For the other water supply pipe 2, the operator can seal its inner cavity by inserting a wooden plug into its inner cavity.

[0052] It should be noted that the various tubular structures mentioned in the present invention, such as the water supply pipe 2 and the water outlet pipe 7, can be selected as soft pipes, hard pipes, long pipes, short pipes or other adjustments according to actual conditions, and no specific limitation is made here. Correspondingly, the shape and size of the water inlet 103 and the water outlet 104 can also be adjusted.

[0053] Example 4

[0054] In this embodiment, along the extension direction of the water storage component 1, water outlet pipes 7 are detachably installed on both side walls of the water storage component 1 and are both provided with water outlets 104. The water outlet pipes 7 have an inner cavity, and the water outlets 104 are used to communicate with the inner cavities of adjacent water outlet pipes 7. The water outlets 104 are connected to the water storage cavity 101.

[0055] In this embodiment, the number of water outlet pipes 7 is set to two. Compared with the photovoltaic building assembly cleaning device including only a single water outlet pipe 7, the use range of the photovoltaic building assembly cleaning device including two water outlet pipes 7 is further expanded. For example, when three photovoltaic building assembly cleaning devices are used to clean three photovoltaic assemblies, the three photovoltaic building assembly cleaning devices are arranged in parallel, and the two water outlet pipes 7 in the photovoltaic building assembly cleaning device in the middle are respectively connected to the adjacent water outlet pipes 7. At this time, only a single delivery pipe needs to be filled with water to complete the operation of filling the three water storage chambers 101. When there are multiple photovoltaic building assembly cleaning devices, a control component 5 in any photovoltaic building assembly cleaning device can be set to control the driving part 3 in each photovoltaic building assembly cleaning device.

[0056] Example 5

[0057] In this embodiment, a guide member 8 is slidably connected to the bottom of the water storage member 1. The longitudinal section of the guide member 8 is arc-shaped. The extension direction of the guide member 8 is the same as the extension direction of the water storage member 1. The guide member 8 is used to guide the flow direction of water leaving the water storage chamber 101 through the water outlet 102.

[0058] Optionally, the guide member 8 can be separated from the water storage member 1, so that it is easy to replace the guide member 8. In some cases, a groove can be provided on the water storage member 1, and part of the guide member 8 is engaged in the groove, so that the guide member 8 can move relative to the water storage member 1 and can also be separated from the water storage member 1.

[0059] During the process of water falling, much water cannot get close to the photovoltaic module due to the action of gravity and is wasted. Through the setting of the guide 8, the guide 8 can guide the flow of water leaving the water storage chamber 101 through the water outlet 102 to reduce the total amount of wasted water.

[0060] Example 6

[0061] In this embodiment, baffles 9 are installed on both side walls of the guide member 8 along the extension direction of the guide member 8 .

[0062] By disposing the baffle plate 9 , it is possible to prevent part of the water from being separated from the guide member 8 along the extension direction of the guide member 8 during the guiding process of the guide member 8 .

[0063] Example 7

[0064] In this embodiment, a blocking portion 10 is connected to the guide member 8 . When the water storage member 1 is working, the blocking portion 10 is located at a side of the guide member 8 away from the photovoltaic assembly. The blocking portion 10 can block the opening of the water outlet 102 .

[0065] The guide member 8 can move relative to the water storage member 1 along the width direction of the water storage member 1. As the guide member 8 moves, the range of the opening of the water outlet hole 102 blocked by the sealing portion 10 also changes. For example, it can be set that the sealing portion 10 does not block the opening of the water outlet hole 102 in the initial situation. At this time, the water flowing out through the water outlet hole 102 is all guided by the guide member 8 and the water storage chamber 101 has a large drainage volume per unit time. The water has a better cleaning effect on the photovoltaic component, and more water is easily wasted. When the guide member 8 moves a distance toward the photovoltaic component, if the sealing portion 10 is not set, a part of the water contacts the guide member 8 and is guided by it, and the other part of the water moves downward under the action of gravity and is wasted. However, through the setting of the sealing portion 10, this part of the water is not directly wasted. At this time, the water storage chamber 101 has a small drainage volume per unit time, and the water flow can continuously flush the photovoltaic component.
