Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of solar energy, and particularly relates to a clamping type cleaning structure for a solar heat collecting pipe. Background Technique

[0002] A solar water heater is a heating device that converts solar energy into heat energy, heating water from a low temperature to a high temperature to meet the hot water usage of people in life and production. Generally, a solar water heater is a vacuum tube type solar water heater. A household vacuum tube solar water heater is composed of related parts such as heat collecting pipes, a water storage tank, and a bracket. Converting solar energy into heat mainly depends on the vacuum heat collecting pipe. The vacuum heat collecting pipe utilizes the principle that hot water floats and cold water sinks to make the water generate microcirculation to obtain the required hot water.

[0003] Currently, since solar heat collecting pipes are usually installed outdoors and exposed to the natural environment for a long time, dust, particulate matter, and other impurities in the air will float with the wind and adhere to the surface of the heat collecting pipes. As a result, after a long time of accumulation, a layer of dust will cover the surface of the heat collecting pipes, which will block the direct sunlight from shining on the heat collecting pipes, leading to a reduction in the utilization rate of solar energy and a decrease in the heat collection efficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the solar heat collecting pipes regularly. The traditional cleaning method is to manually wipe the surface of the heat collecting pipes gently with a soft brush or a wet cloth to remove dust and dirt. However, since there are a large number of heat collecting pipes in the solar water heater, when manually cleaning the heat collecting pipes one by one with a soft brush or a wet cloth, it is time-consuming and the cleaning is also rather troublesome. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a clamping type cleaning structure for a solar heat collecting pipe to solve the problems mentioned in the above background technique.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solution: A clamping type cleaning structure for a solar heat collecting pipe, comprising:

[0006] A bracket, with a water tank provided at the top of the bracket;

[0007] Side plates, there are two groups of side plates, which are arranged on both sides of the water tank and connected to the bracket. There is a bottom plate between the two side plates. There are several heat collecting pipes between the bottom plate and the water tank. A cleaning component for cleaning the dust on the surface of the heat collecting pipes is arranged between the two side plates. By pushing the cleaning plate of the cleaning component to slide in the side plates, the cleaning sponge on the cleaning plate can clean the dust on the surface of the heat collecting pipes while sliding.

[0008] Preferably, the cleaning assembly includes a slider and a fixing member. There are two sets of sliders, which are respectively slidably connected to the chutes provided on the surfaces of the two sets of side plates. One end of the cleaning plate is provided with a clamping rod, and after the clamping rod is inserted into the clamping groove provided in one of the sliders, it is clamped by the fixing member.

[0009] Preferably, the other end of the cleaning plate is provided with an insertion rod, and the insertion rod is cooperatively inserted into the insertion slot provided in the other slider.

[0010] Preferably, the fixing member includes a clamping hole and a sliding rod. The sliding rod slidably penetrates through the slider and extends into the clamping groove, and a clamping block is fixedly connected to the end located in the clamping groove. The clamping hole is provided on the surface of the clamping rod, and the clamping block is cooperatively clamped with the clamping hole.

[0011] Preferably, a spring is sleeved on the surface of the sliding rod, and the two ends of the spring are respectively connected to the slider and the clamping block.

[0012] Preferably, a water inlet pipe is provided on the surface of the cleaning plate, and a water collecting groove is provided inside the cleaning plate for storing clean water. The stored clean water can flow to the cleaning sponge through the branch pipe to wet the cleaning sponge.

[0013] Preferably, a plurality of arc-shaped grooves are provided on the bottom surface of the cleaning plate. The cleaning sponge is arranged in the arc-shaped grooves, and a branch pipe is provided at the top of the cleaning sponge. The other end of the branch pipe is connected to the water collecting groove. Since the cleaning sponge is soft in texture, wiping the heat collecting pipe with the cleaning sponge can prevent scratching the heat collecting pipe when wiping the heat collecting pipe.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are:

[0015] (1) When cleaning the heat collecting pipe, the water inlet pipe can be connected to an external water pipe to inject clean water into the water collecting groove. The clean water in the water collecting groove will flow to the cleaning sponge in the arc-shaped groove through the branch pipe and be absorbed by the cleaning sponge. At this time, manually slide the cleaning plate up and down repeatedly, so that both sides of the cleaning plate slide in the chute through the slider, so that the wet cleaning sponge in the arc-shaped groove repeatedly wipes the surface of the heat collecting pipe from bottom to top. And because the arc of the arc-shaped groove is the same as that of the heat collecting pipe, the arc-shaped groove can be sleeved on the surface of the heat collecting pipe, so as to clean the sunny side of the heat collecting pipe. By cleaning multiple heat collecting pipes at the same time, the efficiency of cleaning the heat collecting pipe is relatively high and the cleaning is relatively convenient.

[0016] (2) After cleaning the heat collecting pipe with the cleaning plate, the cleaning plate can be disassembled to clean the cleaning sponge. By pulling the sliding rod outwards of the slider, when the sliding rod moves outwards of the slider, it drives the clamping block to move and compress the spring. Thus, by moving the sliding rod, the clamping block is driven to move and disengage from the clamping hole, so that the clamping rod on the surface of the cleaning plate can be pulled out of the chute, thereby completing the disassembly of the cleaning plate. After disassembly, the cleaning sponge on the surface of the cleaning plate can be cleaned to avoid the residual dust in the cleaning sponge affecting the next cleaning effect.

Detailed Embodiment

[0023] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] The present utility model provides a Figures 1-5 solar heat collecting pipe sleeve-type cleaning structure as shown in

[0025] a support 1, and a water tank 2 is provided at the top of the support 1;

[0026] Side plates 3, there are two groups of the side plates 3, and the two groups of side plates 3 are arranged on both sides of the water tank 2 and connected to the bracket 1. There is a bottom plate 4 between the side plates 3. There are a number of heat collecting tubes 5 between the bottom plate 4 and the water tank 2. There is a cleaning assembly 6 between the two groups of side plates 3 for cleaning the dust on the surface of the heat collecting tubes 5. By pushing the cleaning plate 7 of the cleaning assembly 6 to slide in the side plate 3, the cleaning plate 7 can clean the dust on the surface of the heat collecting tubes 5 through the cleaning sponge 8 while sliding.

[0027] The cleaning assembly 6 includes sliders 9 and fixing members 10. There are two groups of the sliders 9, which are respectively slidably connected in the chutes 11 provided on the surfaces of the two groups of side plates 3. One end of the cleaning plate 7 is provided with a clamping rod 12, and the clamping rod 12 is inserted into a clamping groove 13 provided in one of the sliders 9 and then clamped by the fixing member 10. The cleaning plate 7 is clamped and fixed by the fixing member 10 to prevent the cleaning plate 7 from being loosely installed.

[0028] The other end of the cleaning plate 7 is provided with an insertion rod 14, and the insertion rod 14 is in fit connection with an insertion slot provided in the other slider 9. By inserting the insertion rod 14 at one end of the cleaning plate 7 into the insertion slot provided on the surface of the slider 9, pre-installation positioning of one end of the cleaning plate 7 can be achieved.

[0029] The fixing member 10 includes a clamping hole 15 and a sliding rod 16. The sliding rod 16 slidably penetrates the slider 9 and extends into the clamping groove 13, and a clamping block 22 is fixedly connected to one end located in the clamping groove 13. The clamping hole 15 is provided on the surface of the clamping rod 12, and the clamping block 22 is in fit connection with the clamping hole 15.

[0030] A spring 17 is sleeved on the surface of the sliding rod 16, and the two ends of the spring 17 are respectively connected to the slider 9 and the clamping block 22.

[0031] The cleaning plate 7 is provided with a water inlet pipe 18 on its surface, and a water collecting groove 19 is provided inside the cleaning plate 7. By connecting the water inlet pipe 18 to an external water pipe, clean water can be injected into the water collecting groove 19 and stored in the water collecting groove 19.

[0032] A number of arc-shaped grooves 20 are provided on the bottom surface of the cleaning plate 7. The cleaning sponge 8 is arranged in the arc-shaped grooves 20, and a branch pipe 21 is provided at the top of the cleaning sponge 8. The other end of the branch pipe 21 is connected to the water collecting groove 19. The clean water in the water collecting groove 19 will flow into the cleaning sponge 8 in the arc-shaped grooves 20 through the branch pipe 21 and be absorbed by the cleaning sponge 8 to wet the cleaning sponge 8 for subsequent cleaning of the heat collecting tubes 5.

[0033] When cleaning the solar heat collecting tube, the water inlet pipe 18 can be connected to an external water pipe to inject clean water into the water collecting tank 19. The clean water in the water collecting tank 19 will flow through the branch pipe 21 into the cleaning sponge 8 in the arc-shaped groove 20 and be absorbed by the cleaning sponge 8. At this time, the air cylinder 23 provided at the center of the bottom plate 4 is started to work. Since the piston rod of the air cylinder 23 is screwed and fixed to the cleaning plate 7 through a connecting piece, when the piston rod of the air cylinder 23 extends, it can drive the cleaning plate 7 to slide up and down repeatedly, so that both sides of the cleaning plate 7 slide in the sliding groove 11 through the slider 9, and several balls are provided in the sliding groove 11, which can reduce the friction when the slider 9 slides in the sliding groove 11 through the balls or rollers 24. The wet cleaning sponge 8 in the arc-shaped groove 20 can wipe the surface of the heat collecting tube 5 from bottom to top repeatedly. And because the arc of the arc-shaped groove 20 is the same as that of the heat collecting tube 5, the arc-shaped groove 20 can be sleeved on the surface of the heat collecting tube 5, so as to clean the sunny side of the heat collecting tube 5. By cleaning multiple heat collecting tubes 5 at the same time, the efficiency of cleaning the heat collecting tubes 5 is relatively high and the cleaning is more convenient. As Figure 5 shown, the shape of the slider 9 in the sliding groove 11 is adapted to the shape of the sliding groove 11, and the cross section is inverted "T" shaped, which can prevent the slider 9 from slipping out of the sliding groove 11 during work.

[0034] After the heat collecting tube 5 is cleaned by the cleaning plate 7, the screwed connection between the cleaning plate 7 and the piston rod of the air cylinder 23 can be detached, so that the cleaning plate 7 can be detached to clean the cleaning sponge 8. By pulling the sliding rod 16 outwards from the slider 9, when the sliding rod 16 moves outwards from the slider 9, it drives the clamping block 22 to move and compress the spring 17, so that the clamping block 22 is driven to move by the movement of the sliding rod 16 and disengages from the clamping connection with the clamping hole 15, so that the clamping rod 12 on the surface of the cleaning plate 7 can be pulled out of the sliding groove 11, thus completing the detachment of the cleaning plate 7. After detachment, the cleaning sponge 8 on the surface of the cleaning plate 7 can be cleaned to avoid the residual dust in the cleaning sponge 8 affecting the next cleaning effect;

[0035] When installing the cleaned cleaning plate 7, the end of the cleaning plate 7 with the insertion rod 14 can be inserted into the slot on the surface of a group of sliders 9, and after pulling the sliding rod 16 to drive the clamping block 22 to move, the end of the cleaning plate 7 with the clamping rod 12 can be inserted into the clamping groove 13 on the surface of another group of sliders 9. Release the hand pulling the sliding rod 16, and the spring 17 rebounds to drive the clamping block 22 to move towards the end close to the clamping rod 12, so as to be clamped by the clamping block 22 and the clamping hole 15, thus fixing the installed cleaning plate 7.

[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
