[0026] It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present application, by designing a safety button inside the equipment and forming a linkage with the safety door, the function of the safety button can be automatically activated when the safety door is opened and the staff enters the equipment main body, cutting off the mechanical motion energy source of the mechanical motion device. At the same time, the external console is stopped from being used, and the external console is in a failure state and cannot control the mechanical motion device to release dangerous energy. The design of this safety system can effectively prevent the occurrence of mechanical injury accidents caused by accidentally closing the safety door and accidentally operating the buttons on the console without noticing that there are personnel operating inside the equipment, ensuring the life and health safety of the operators.

[0027] In an alternative embodiment, the safety button 6 is connected to the power supply module of the mechanical motion device 3, and the safety button 6 is used to control the power supply module to turn off when receiving the start signal.

[0028] Specifically, the safety button 6 is connected to the power supply module of the mechanical motion device 3.

[0033] In an alternative embodiment, the sensor 5 is respectively connected to the mechanical movement device 3 and the control console 4.

[0034] Specifically, when the operator finishes the operation and safely leaves the mechanical movement area, the safety button 6 receives the shutdown signal triggered by the user pressing the button and sends the shutdown signal to the sensor 5. The sensor 5 is respectively connected to the mechanical movement device 3 and the control console 4, and can restore the mechanical movement device 3 and the control console 4.

[0035] In an alternative embodiment, the sensor 5 is further configured to: when the safety door 2 is closed and the shutdown signal is received, control the mechanical movement device 3 to resume movement and the control console 4 to resume use.

[0036] Specifically, when the operator finishes the operation, the safety button 6 receives the shutdown signal triggered by the user pressing the button and sends the shutdown signal to the sensor 5.

[0037] In an alternative embodiment, the sensor 5 is connected to the power supply module of the mechanical movement device 3. The sensor 5 is configured to control the power supply module to turn on when the safety door 2 is closed and the shutdown signal is received.

[0038] Specifically, the sensor 5 is connected to the power supply module of the mechanical movement device 3. When the operator finishes the operation, the safety button 6 receives the shutdown signal triggered by the user pressing the button and sends the shutdown signal to the sensor 5. When the sensor 5 receives the shutdown signal and at the same time the staff member walks out of the device and closes the safety door, the sensor 5 recognizes that the safety door is closed and controls the power supply module of the mechanical movement device 3 to turn on, thereby resuming the operation of the mechanical movement device 3.

[0041] It can be seen that this application designs a safety system for preventing mechanical injuries in a solar energy device. A safety button is designed inside the device. When there are personnel operating, the safety door is opened, and the added safety button inside the device is automatically activated (to prevent the situation where personnel forget to press this button and it fails to play a protective role), automatically cutting off the mechanical injury energy source of the device. Through the design of this safety system, when personnel enter the device for operation, only when the internal operator finishes the operation and presses the internal button of the device personally, can the external console button normally operate the device. Otherwise, the external console is in a failure state and cannot release dangerous energy. The design of this safety system can effectively prevent the occurrence of mechanical injury accidents caused by accidentally closing the safety door and accidentally operating the buttons on the console without noticing that there are personnel operating inside the device, ensuring the life, health and safety of the operators.

[0046] This patent aims to form a linkage between the safety button inside the device and the safety door by adding a safety button inside the device, that is, when the safety door is opened, the safety button inside the device is automatically activated, automatically cutting off the mechanical injury energy source of the device. Through the design of this safety system, when personnel enter the device for operation, only when the internal operator finishes the operation and presses the internal button of the device personally, can the external console button normally operate the device. Otherwise, the external console is in a failure state and cannot release dangerous energy. The design of this safety system can effectively prevent the occurrence of mechanical injury accidents caused by accidentally closing the safety door and accidentally operating the buttons on the console without noticing that there are personnel operating inside the device, ensuring the life, health and safety of the operators.
