[0023] To make the technical solution of the present utility model clearer, the following further describes the present utility model in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0024] Embodiment 1
[0025] As Figure 1 , 3 -4, this embodiment provides a debugger, including: a first outer shell 11; a first control board 12; a first Bluetooth module 13, a photographing unit 14, a button unit 15, and a display screen 16 that are all communicatively connected to the first control board 12; wherein, the first Bluetooth module 13 is mechanically detachably connected to the inside of one end of the first outer shell 11, and the first Bluetooth module 13 is used for wirelessly communicatively connecting with the second Bluetooth module 25 of the controller 2.
[0026] Specifically, during pairing, the debugger operator stands below the controller 2 of the photovoltaic tracker to be debugged. In one pairing method, the first control board 12 automatically searches for nearby second Bluetooth modules 25, sorts them according to the Bluetooth signal strength on the display screen 16, and the debugger operator selects a suitable second Bluetooth module 25 for pairing through the button unit 15. In the second pairing method, the debugger operator scans the identification code 23 outside the second outer shell 21 of the controller 2 through the photographing unit 14 to pair with the second Bluetooth module 25. In the third pairing method, the debugger operator inputs the identification number 24 outside the second outer shell 21 of the controller 2 through the button unit 15 to pair with the second Bluetooth module 25. In summary, the three pairing methods facilitate the pairing of the debugger 1 of the present application to have diverse pairing methods, a high pairing fault tolerance rate, and because the first Bluetooth module 13 and the second Bluetooth module 25 are wirelessly communicatively connected, it is convenient for the debugger operator not to need to climb heights during both pairing and debugging, thus facilitating a low complexity of debugging and a small safety hazard; it should be noted that as Figure 2 , a photovoltaic tracker generally has multiple controllers 2, the adjacent controllers 2 are generally about 8 m apart, the controller 2 and the debugger 1 are generally about 2 m apart, that is, the controller 2 is generally 2 m high, the adjacent controller 2 and the debugger 1 are generally about 8.2 m apart, and one controller 2 can only be paired with one debugger 1.
[0027] Among them, since the first Bluetooth module 13 is located inside the first housing 11, it is convenient for the first housing 11 to protect the first Bluetooth module 13, preventing external rain, dust, etc. from damaging the first Bluetooth module 13. Since the first Bluetooth module 13 and the first housing 11 are mechanically detachable, it is convenient to replace the first Bluetooth module 13 in time. Since the first Bluetooth module 13 is located inside one end of the first housing 11, which is equivalent to the first Bluetooth module 13 being located at the end of the first housing 11, it is convenient to minimize the distance between the first Bluetooth module 13 and the second Bluetooth module 25 of the controller 2 during pairing. The first control board 12 is used as the control center of the debugger 1, and the first control board 12 may specifically include debugging software. The photographing unit 14 may specifically be a COMS, a CCD, etc. The button unit 15 may specifically include numeric buttons, letter buttons, and symbol buttons, etc.
[0028] Further, as Figures 3 - 4 , the photographing unit 14, the button unit 15, and the display screen 16 are all mechanically connected to the first housing 11, and at least part of the photographing unit 14, the button unit 15, and the display screen 16 are located outside the first housing 11. Specifically, since at least part of the photographing unit 14, the button unit 15, and the display screen 16 are located outside the first housing 11, it is convenient for the photographing unit 14 to take pictures, the button unit 15 to press buttons, and the display screen 16 to display.
[0029] Further, as Figures 3 - 4 , the photographing unit 14, the button unit 15, and the display screen 16 are all mechanically detachable from the first housing 11. Specifically, the detachable connection is convenient for replacing the photographing unit 14, the button unit 15, and the display screen 16 in time.
[0030] Further, as Figure 4 , the first control board 12 is mechanically detachable and connected inside the first housing 11. Specifically, since the first control board 12 is located inside the first housing 11, it is convenient for the first housing 11 to protect the first control board 12, preventing external rain, dust, etc. from damaging the first control board 12; due to the mechanical detachable connection, it is convenient to replace the first control board 12 in time.
[0031] Further, as Figures 3 - 4 , the material of the first housing 11 is plastic. Specifically, plastic can both minimize the interference of the first housing 11 on the Bluetooth signal of the first Bluetooth module 13 and facilitate the relatively small mass of the first housing 11.
[0032] As Figure 1 and 5, this embodiment also provides a controller, which is paired with a debugger of this embodiment, and includes: a second housing 21; a second control board 22; an identification code 23 and an identification number 24 both mechanically connected to the outside of the second housing 21; a second Bluetooth module 25 communicatively connected to the second control board 22; wherein, the second Bluetooth module 25 is wirelessly communicatively connected to the first Bluetooth module 13. Specifically, the second housing 21 is used to carry the identification code 23 and the identification number 24; the second control board 22 is used as the control center of the controller 2; the debugger can pair by scanning the identification code 23 through the photographing unit 14, wherein, the identification code 23 can be a two-dimensional code, a bar code, etc.; the debugger inputs the identification number 24 through the key unit 15 for pairing, wherein, the identification number 24 can be numbers, letters, symbols, etc., or a combination of numbers, letters, symbols, etc.; since the second Bluetooth module 25 and the first Bluetooth module 13 are wirelessly communicatively connected, it is convenient to enable the wireless communication connection between the controller 2 and the debugger 1 of this application.
[0033] Further, as Figure 5 , the second Bluetooth module 25 is mechanically detachably connected to the inside of one end of the second housing 21 close to the first housing 11. Specifically, since the second Bluetooth module 25 is located inside the second housing 21, it is convenient for the second housing 21 to protect the second Bluetooth module 25 and prevent external rain, dust, etc. from damaging the second Bluetooth module 25; since it is mechanically detachably connected, it is convenient to replace the second Bluetooth module 25 in time; since the second Bluetooth module 25 is located inside the second housing 21 at one end close to the first housing 11, it is convenient to minimize the distance between the second Bluetooth module 25 and the first Bluetooth module 13.
[0034] Further, as Figure 5 , it further includes an indicator light mechanically detachably connected to the second housing 21, at least part of the indicator light is located outside the second housing 21, and the indicator light is communicatively connected to the second control board 22. Specifically, the indicator light is used to indicate whether the pairing is successful. Since at least part of the indicator light is located outside the second housing 21, it is convenient for the debugger to observe the indicator light.
[0035] Further, as Figure 5 , the second control board 22 is mechanically detachably connected to the inside of the second housing 21. Specifically, since the second control board 22 is located inside the second housing 21, it is convenient for the second housing 21 to protect the second control board 22 and prevent external rain, dust, etc. from damaging the second control board 22; since it is mechanically detachably connected, it is convenient to replace the second control board 22 in time.
[0036] Further, as Figure 5, the material of the second housing 21 is plastic. Specifically, plastic can not only minimize the interference of the second housing 21 on the Bluetooth signal of the second Bluetooth module 25, but also facilitate the relatively small mass of the second housing 21.
[0037] The above embodiments only express several implementation manners of the present utility model, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of the patent of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present utility model, several deformations and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present utility model shall be subject to the appended claims.
