Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of solar power generation equipment, in particular to an angle tracking device for solar power generation facilities. Background Art

[0002] Solar photovoltaic power generation of solar energy refers to a power generation method that directly converts light energy into electrical energy without passing through a thermal process. It includes photovoltaic power generation, photochemical power generation, photoinduced power generation, and photobiological power generation. Photovoltaic power generation is a direct power generation method that uses solar-grade semiconductor electronic devices to effectively absorb solar radiation energy and convert it into electrical energy. It is the mainstream of current solar power generation. In photochemical power generation, there are electrochemical photovoltaic cells, photoelectrolytic cells, and photocatalytic cells. Currently, the photovoltaic cells that have been practically applied are mostly solar panels. However, most solar panels are installed at a fixed angle. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an angle tracking device for solar power generation facilities, so that the solar panel can effectively absorb solar radiation and perform light energy conversion following the change of the sunlight irradiation angle.

[0003] Chinese patent document CN208015661U discloses a two-axis follow-up tracking device for solar components, which automatically adjusts the angle of the solar components through a two-axis structure to achieve the follow-up tracking of the solar components to the sun, making it face the sun all day long, and can greatly improve the utilization rate of solar energy.

[0004] The following problems exist in the prior art:

[0005] Most of the existing solar power generation facilities are fixedly installed. However, the angle of sunlight irradiation changes with time, resulting in the inability of the solar panel to follow the change of the sunlight irradiation angle and the inability to adjust the inclination angle of the solar panel in the horizontal direction, so that the solar panel faces the sun directly for light energy conversion. This will affect the light conversion rate of the solar panel, thus causing the overall power storage efficiency of the solar power generation facility to be relatively low. Utility Model Content

Specific embodiments

[0028] In order to make the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and effects realized by the present utility model easy to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0029] As Figures 1-7 shown, an angle tracking device for a solar power generation facility includes a base 1. The outer surface of the upper part of the base 1 is threadedly connected with a mounting post 2. The upper surface of the mounting post 2 is provided with a slotted groove 7 and a chute 1, and the chute 1 is located outside the slotted groove 7. Above the base 1 is provided an angle tracking component 3. The outer surface of the angle tracking component 3 is fixedly installed with a bracket 4. A solar panel 5 is rotatably connected between the opposite sides on the left side of the bracket 4. The left side of the right part of the bracket 4 is fixedly installed with an adjustment component 6. The upper surface of the base 1 is fixedly installed with three rib plates 8. The rib plates 8 are provided to enhance the support strength of the base 1. The angle tracking component 3 includes a vertical column 31. The bottom of the vertical column 31 is rotatably connected with the inner surface of the lower part of the slotted groove 7. At the left rear side position of the upper surface of the slotted groove 7, a mounting plate 33 is fixedly installed. The upper surface of the mounting plate 33 is fixedly installed with a motor 1 36. At the left front side of the upper surface of the mounting plate 33, a receiver 35 is fixedly installed. The upper surface of the vertical column 31 is fixedly installed with a tracker 310, and the tracker 310 is electrically connected to the receiver 35. At the rear side position of the outer surface of the slotted groove 7, a worm 38 is rotatably connected. The worm 38 is meshed with a worm gear 34 at the front side. The adjustment component 6 includes a motor 2 66. The motor 2 66 is fixedly installed on the left side of the right part of the bracket 4. The output end of the motor 2 66 is fixedly installed with a screw rod 62, and the left end of the screw rod 62 is rotatably connected with the right side of the left part of the bracket 4. The outer surface of the screw rod 62 is threadedly connected with a screw block 63. Between the opposite sides of the upper part of the screw block 63, a connecting rod 64 is rotatably connected. The other end of the connecting rod 64 is rotatably connected with a connecting seat 67. The upper end of the connecting seat 67 is fixedly installed with a slider 2 68.

[0030] In use, the base 1 is installed on the ground, and then the mounting column 2 is threadedly connected to the base 1. When the sunlight irradiation angle shifts, the tracker 310 issues an instruction to the receiver 35, causing the first motor 36 to operate, thereby driving the column 31, the bracket 4, and the solar panel 5 to rotate, enabling the solar panel 5 to adjust its angle following the change in the sunlight irradiation angle, thus completing the angle tracking change of the solar power generation facility with the change in the sunlight irradiation angle, effectively improving the power storage efficiency of the solar power generation facility. The tracker 310 will always follow the irradiation direction of the sun. When it is necessary to adjust the tilt angle of the solar panel 5, the second motor 66 operates to drive the screw 62 and the screw block 63 to rotate, enabling the connecting rod 64 to push the solar panel 5 to rotate around the right side of the left part of the bracket 4 through the connecting seat 67 and the second slider 68, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the solar panel 5 in the horizontal direction to face the sun, which can maximize the light conversion rate of the solar panel 5.

[0031] As Figures 3-5 shown, the bottoms of the column 31 and the slot 7 are both spherical. The output end of the first motor 36 is fixedly installed with a first bevel gear 37, and the left side of the outer surface of the worm 38 is fixedly installed with a second bevel gear 39. The right side of the first bevel gear 37 meshes with the lower side of the second bevel gear 39. The inner surface of the worm gear 34 is fixedly installed with the outer surface of the bottom of the column 31.

[0032] By setting the bottoms of the column 31 and the slot 7 to be spherical, the column 31 is more stable when rotating in the slot 7. During the rotation of the column 31, the position of the column 31 is maintained through the self-locking between the worm 38 and the worm gear 34, preventing the column 31 from rotating back.

[0033] As Figures 3-5 shown, the lower surface of the column 31 is fixedly installed with a rotating ring 32, and the rotating ring 32 is rotatably connected to the first chute 9. One side of the cross-section of the first chute 9 and the rotating ring 32 is T-shaped.

[0034] During the rotation of the column 31, the column 31 drives the rotating ring 32 to rotate in the first chute 9, ensuring the stability of the rotation of the column 31.

[0035] As Figure 6 、 Figure 7 shown, the lower part of the outer surface of the screw block 63 is fixedly installed with a first slider 65. The upper surface of the left part of the bracket 4 is provided with a third chute 11, and the inner surface of the third chute 11 is slidably connected to one side of the first slider 65. The first slider 65 is T-shaped.

[0036] By sliding the first slider 65 along the first chute 9, the screw block 63 can be limited to prevent the screw block 63 from rotating.

[0037] As Figure 6 、 Figure 7As shown, a second slide groove 10 is provided on the lower surface of the solar panel 5, and the inner surface of the second slide groove 10 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the second slider 68, and the second slider 68 and the second slide groove 10 are both in an I-shape.

[0038] The connecting rod 64 pushes the slider 68 to slide along the slide groove 10 through the connecting seat 67, so that the solar panel 5 rotates around the right side of the left part of the bracket 4, thereby adjusting the horizontal inclination angle of the solar panel 5 to face the sun, which can maximize the light conversion rate of the solar panel 5.

[0039] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, a protective shell 61 is fixedly installed on the left side of the right part of the bracket 4, and the protective shell 61 is located on the outside of the motor 2 66.

[0040] The protective shell 61 provides protection for the motor 2 66 .

[0041] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: when in use, the base 1 is installed on the ground, and the mounting column 2 is threadedly connected to the base 1. When the sunlight irradiation angle is offset, the tracker 310 will send a command to the receiver 35 to make the motor 1 36 work, drive the bevel gear 1 37, bevel gear 2 39, worm 38, worm wheel 34, column 31, swivel 32, and bracket 4 to rotate, thereby driving the solar panel 5 to rotate, so that the solar panel 5 can follow the change of the sunlight irradiation angle to achieve angle adjustment. During the rotation of the column 31, the position of the column 31 is maintained by the self-locking between the worm 38 and the worm wheel 34, thereby completing the solar power generation device. The tracker 310 can track the changes of the angle as the sunlight irradiation angle changes, which effectively improves the power storage efficiency of the solar power generation facility. The tracker 310 will always follow and track the irradiation direction of the sunlight. When the tilt angle of the solar panel 5 needs to be adjusted, the motor 2 66 drives the screw 62 and the screw block 63 to rotate, and the slider 1 65 slides along the slide groove 1 9 to limit the screw block 63, so that the connecting rod 64 can push the solar panel 5 to rotate around the right side of the left part of the bracket 4 through the connecting seat 67 and the slider 2 68, thereby adjusting the horizontal tilt angle of the solar panel 5 to face the sun, which can maximize the light conversion rate of the solar panel 5.

[0042] The above generally describes the present invention in detail, but it is obvious to a person skilled in the art that some modifications or improvements can be made to the present invention. Therefore, modifications or improvements that do not deviate from the spirit of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
