[0046] In the drawings, components with the same structure are denoted by the same numeral labels. When some components are described as "on" another component, the component can be directly placed on the other component; there may also be an intermediate component, the component is placed on the intermediate component, and the intermediate component is placed on another component. When a component is described as "mounted to" or "connected to" another component, the two can be understood as being directly "mounted" or "connected", or a component is indirectly "mounted to" or "connected to" another component through an intermediate component.

[0047] As Figures 1 - 3 shown, the present invention provides a robot 300, including a cable device 100 and a cleaning device 310. Both ends of the cleaning device 310 are respectively fixed to a cable 170, and the cleaning device 310 is mounted on the surface of a photovoltaic panel array 200.

[0048] The cleaning device 310 includes a housing 311, two moving devices 312, and a rolling brush 313. The two moving devices 312 are respectively installed at both ends of the housing 311. The bottom surface and the side surface of the moving device 312 each include more than two wheels 314. The cable 170 is fixed to the side surfaces of the two moving devices 312 facing away from each other, enabling the cleaning device 310 to move stably on the photovoltaic panel array 200. The rolling brush 313 is rotatably installed between the two moving devices 312 and is used to clean the surface of the photovoltaic panel array 200. The rolling brush 313 can be replaced with a scraping plate, a brush, or other cleaning tools capable of cleaning the photovoltaic panel array.

[0049] In this embodiment, when the cable device 100 is activated, the two steering wheel assemblies 130 rotate synchronously in the clockwise direction, and the cleaning device 310 moves from the second platform 120 to the first platform 110. When the two steering wheel assemblies 130 rotate synchronously in the counterclockwise direction, at this time, the cleaning device 310 moves from the first platform 110 to the second platform 120. During the movement of the cleaning device 310, the surface of the photovoltaic panel array 200 will be cleaned.

[0050] As Figure 1 and Figures 3 - 4 shown, the cable device 100 provided by the present utility model includes a first platform 110, a second platform 120, two steering wheel assemblies 130, two cable arranging assemblies 140, two transmission assemblies 150, two rotating wheels 160, and two cables 170. The first platform 110 is installed at one end of a photovoltaic panel array 200. The second platform 120 is installed at the other end of the photovoltaic panel array 200. The first platform 110 and the second platform 120 are arranged opposite to each other. The two steering wheel assemblies 130 are respectively a first steering wheel assembly 130a and a second steering wheel assembly 130b. The first steering wheel assembly 130a and the second steering wheel assembly 130b are coaxially connected by a first transmission shaft 180 and can rotate synchronously. The first steering wheel assembly 130a and the second steering wheel assembly 130b are respectively installed at both ends of the first platform 110. The two cable arranging assemblies 140 are respectively installed at both ends of the first platform 110. The cable arranging assembly 140 and the steering wheel assembly 130 are arranged opposite to each other. The two transmission assemblies 150 are respectively installed on the top surfaces at both ends of the first platform 110. The steering wheel assembly 130 and the transmission assembly 150 are in transmission connection. The cable arranging assembly 140 and the transmission assembly 150 are in transmission connection. The two rotating wheels 160 are respectively installed at both ends of the second platform 120. The rotating wheel 160 and the steering wheel assembly 130 are arranged opposite to each other. Both ends of the cable 170 are wound around the surface of the steering wheel assembly 130, and the cable 170 is sleeved on the surface of the rotating wheel 160.

[0051] As Figures 5 - 6, at both ends of the first platform 110, there is respectively provided a first C-shaped bracket 111. The first C-shaped bracket 111 includes a vertical side 112 and two oppositely arranged horizontal sides 113. The two oppositely arranged horizontal sides 113 are respectively the first horizontal side 113 and the second horizontal side 113; the first steering wheel assembly 130a includes a motor 131, and the motor 131 is fixed to the bottom surface of the first horizontal side 113; the motor 131 includes a power output shaft 132. One end of the power output shaft 132 is installed on the motor 131, and the other end is sleeved with a first gear 182.

[0052] Further, the first steering wheel assembly 130a includes two bearings 133, a first rotating shaft 134, a first wire wheel 135, a second wire wheel 136, a second gear 137, and a first conveyor belt 138. The two bearings 133 are respectively the first bearing 133 and the second bearing 133. The first bearing 133 is installed on the top surface of the first horizontal side 113, and the second bearing 133 is installed on the top surface of the second horizontal side 133; the first end of the first rotating shaft 134 is rotatably installed on the first bearing 133, the second end of the first rotating shaft 134 is rotatably installed on the second bearing 133, and the first end of the first transmission shaft 180 is connected to the first rotating shaft 134; the first wire wheel 135 is sleeved on the surface of the first rotating shaft 134, and one end of the cable 170 is wound clockwise around the first wire wheel 135; the second wire wheel 136 is sleeved on the surface of the first rotating shaft 134, one end of the first wire wheel 135 is fixedly connected to one end of the second wire wheel 136, and the other end of the cable 170 is wound counterclockwise around the second wire wheel 136; the second gear 137 is sleeved on the first end of the first rotating shaft 134. The number of teeth of the second gear 137 is N times the number of teeth of the first gear 182, and the rotation speed of the second gear 137 is 1 / N of the rotation speed of the first gear 182; the first conveyor belt 138 is meshingly sleeved on the surfaces of the second gear 137 and the first gear 182.

[0053] Further, the second steering wheel assembly 130b includes two bearings 133, a second rotating shaft 181, a first wire wheel 135, and a second wire wheel 136. The two bearings 133 are respectively the first bearing 133 and the second bearing 133. The first bearing 133 is installed on the top surface of the first horizontal side 113, and the second bearing 133 is installed on the top surface of the second horizontal side 133; the first end of the second rotating shaft 181 is rotatably installed on the first bearing 133, the second end of the second rotating shaft 181 is rotatably installed on the second bearing 133, and the second end of the first transmission shaft 180 is connected to the second rotating shaft 181; the first wire wheel 135 is sleeved on the surface of the first rotating shaft 134, and one end of the cable 170 is wound clockwise around the first wire wheel 135; the second wire wheel 136 is sleeved on the surface of the first rotating shaft 134, one end of the first wire wheel 135 is fixedly connected to one end of the second wire wheel 136, and the other end of the cable 170 is wound counterclockwise around the second wire wheel 136.

[0054] The rotation modes of the first wire wheels 135 of the first steering wheel assembly 130a and the second steering wheel assembly 130b and the second wire wheels 136, and the wire winding and unwinding processes of the cable 170 wound around the first wire wheels 135 and the second wire wheels 136 are exactly the same.

[0055] The cable 170 is wound around the first wire wheels 135 and the second wire wheels 136, enabling the first wire wheels 135 and the second wire wheels 136 to directly provide a pulling force on the cable 170. If the cable 170 is directly sleeved on the surfaces of the first wire wheels 135 and the second wire wheels 136, the cable 170 may slip due to the frictional force between the cable 170 and the surfaces of the first wire wheels 135 and the second wire wheels 136 and between the cable 170 and the surface of the rotating wheel 160. However, when the cable 170 is wound around the first wire wheels 135 and the second wire wheels 136, the first wire wheels 135 and the second wire wheels 136 provide a pulling force to the cable 170 through rotation, avoiding the possibility of the cable 170 slipping.

[0056] In this embodiment, when the motor 131 drives the power output shaft 132 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, the first gear 182 rotates synchronously with the power output shaft 10. When the first gear 182 rotates, it drives the second gear 137 to rotate through the first transmission belt 139. Since the rotation speed of the second gear 137 is 1 / N of the rotation speed of the first gear 182, the rotation of the second gear 137 drives the first rotating shaft 134 to rotate. The rotation of the first rotating shaft 134 drives the first transmission shaft 180 to rotate, and the rotation of the first transmission shaft 180 drives the second rotating shaft 181 to rotate, ensuring that the first rotating shaft 134, the second rotating shaft 181, and the first transmission shaft 180 rotate coaxially and synchronously at the rotation speed of the second gear 137. Furthermore, it ensures that the first wire wheels 135 and the second wire wheels 136 of the first steering wheel assembly 130a and the first wire wheels 135 and the second wire wheels 136 of the second steering wheel assembly 130b rotate coaxially and synchronously at the rotation speed of the second gear 137, preventing the first wire wheels 135 and the second wire wheels 136 of the first steering wheel assembly 130a and the first wire wheels 135 and the second wire wheels 136 of the second steering wheel assembly 130b from rotating too fast, which may cause the cleaning device 310 to move too fast and unable to ensure the cleaning effect of the cleaning device 310 on the photovoltaic panel array 200.

[0057] Further, the steering wheel assembly 130 includes a pressing wheel assembly 190. The pressing wheel assembly 190 is fixed to the vertical side 112 of the first C-shaped bracket 111. The pressing wheel assembly 190 includes a C-shaped member 191, a first connecting rod 192, a second connecting rod 193, two oppositely arranged L-shaped arm brackets 194, and a torsion spring (not shown in the figure). The C-shaped member 191 is fixed to the vertical side 112 of the first C-shaped bracket 111. The C-shaped member 191 includes two oppositely arranged first baffles 195. Both ends of the first connecting rod 192 are respectively fixed to the two oppositely arranged first baffles 195. Two wire pressing wheels 196 are rotatably sleeved on the second connecting rod 193. The wire pressing wheels 196 abut against the first wire wheel 135 and the second wire wheel 136 of the steering wheel assembly 130. The L-shaped arm bracket 194 includes a connecting plate 197 and a sleeve 198. The first end of the connecting plate 197 is fixed to one end of the first connecting rod 192. The sleeve 198 is fixed to the second end of the connecting plate 197, and the sleeve 198 is rotatably sleeved on the first connecting rod 192. The torsion spring (not shown in the figure) is sleeved on the first connecting rod 192, and the torsion spring (not shown in the figure) is arranged between the sleeve 198 and the first connecting rod 192.

[0058] In this embodiment, the elastic force provided by the torsion spring causes the two wire pressing wheels 196 to always press the cable 170 on the surfaces of the first wire wheel 135 and the second wire wheel 136, preventing the cables 170 from overlapping with each other when the first wire wheel 135 or the second wire wheel 136 retracts the cable 170, resulting in the cable 170 knotting.

[0059] Further, the transmission assembly 150 includes a third bearing 151, a third gear 152, a second transmission shaft 153, and a second transmission belt 154. The third bearing 151 is fixed to the top surface of one end of the first platform 110. The third gear 152 is sleeved on one end of the first transmission shaft 180. The second transmission shaft 153 is rotatably installed on the third bearing 151. A fourth gear 155 and a fifth gear 156 are respectively sleeved on both ends of the second transmission shaft 153. The second transmission belt 154 is meshingly sleeved on the surfaces of the fourth gear 155 and the third gear 152. Among them, the number of teeth of the third gear 152 and the fifth gear 156 is the same as the number of teeth of the first gear 182, and the number of teeth of the fourth gear 155 is the same as the number of teeth of the second gear 137.

[0060] In this embodiment, the third gear 152 is coaxially connected to the second gear 137 and has the same rotational speed. When the first transmission shaft 180 rotates, it drives the third gear 152 to rotate at the rotational speed of the second gear 137. The rotation of the third gear 152 drives the fourth gear 155 to rotate through the second transmission belt 154. The number of teeth of the fourth gear 155 is S times that of the third gear 152. Therefore, the rotational speed of the fourth gear 155 is 1 / (N*S) of the rotational speed of the first gear 182. The fifth gear 156 rotates coaxially with the fourth gear 155 and has the same rotational speed as the fourth gear 155.

[0061] Further, the wire arranging assembly 140 includes a U-shaped bearing 141, a reciprocating lead screw 142, a sixth gear 143, a third transmission belt 144, a third connecting rod 145, a moving block 146, and a wire arranging plate 147. The U-shaped bearing 141 is fixed to one end of the first platform 100. The U-shaped bearing 141 includes two oppositely arranged second baffles 148. Rotating devices 149 are provided on the second baffles 148, and the rotating devices 149 on the two second baffles 148 are oppositely arranged. The first end of the reciprocating lead screw 142 is installed on the rotating device 149 of one second baffle 148, and the second end of the reciprocating lead screw 142 is installed on the rotating device 149 of the other second baffle 148. The sixth gear 143 is sleeved on the second end of the reciprocating lead screw 142, and the number of teeth of the sixth gear 143 is the same as that of the second gear 137. The third transmission belt 144 is meshingly sleeved on the surfaces of the sixth gear 143 and the fifth gear 156. The fifth connecting rod 145 is fixed between the two second baffles 148, and the third connecting rod 145 is arranged in parallel with the reciprocating lead screw 142. The moving block 146 includes a threaded hole (not shown in the figure) and a through hole (not shown in the figure). The reciprocating lead screw 142 is installed in the threaded hole, and the third connecting rod 145 is installed in the through hole. The wire arranging plate 147 is fixed to the moving block 146, and the wire arranging plate 147 is oppositely arranged with the first wire wheel 135 and the second wire wheel 136 of the steering wheel assembly 130.

[0062] In this embodiment, the rotation of the fifth gear 156 drives the sixth gear 143 to rotate through the third transmission belt 144. The rotation of the sixth gear 143 drives the reciprocating lead screw 142 to rotate. The rotation of the reciprocating lead screw 142 causes the moving block 146 to make a reciprocating movement along the axial direction of the reciprocating lead screw 142, and further causes the wire arranging plate 147 to make a reciprocating movement along the axial direction of the reciprocating lead screw 142.

[0063] Further, the wire arranging plate 147 includes a first strip-shaped through hole 183 and a second strip-shaped through hole 184. One end of the cable 170 passes through the first strip-shaped through hole 183 and is wound around the first wire wheel 135; the other end of the cable 170 passes through the second strip-shaped through hole 184 and is wound around the second wire wheel 136.

[0064] In this embodiment, the flexible cable board 147 has two first strip-shaped through holes 183 and two second strip-shaped through holes 184. One end of the cable 170 can pass through the first strip-shaped through hole 183 arbitrarily and be sleeved on the first wire wheel 135, and the other end of the cable 170 can pass through the second strip-shaped through hole 184 arbitrarily and be sleeved on the second wire wheel 136. The number of teeth of the second gear 137 is N times that of the first gear 182. Therefore, the rotational speed of the second gear 137 is 1 / N of the rotational speed of the first gear 182. The number of teeth of the fourth gear 155 is S times that of the third gear 152. The rotational speed of the third gear 152 is the same as that of the second gear 137. Therefore, the rotational speed of the fourth gear 155 is 1 / (N*S) of the rotational speed of the first gear 182. The rotational speeds of the fourth gear 155 and the fifth gear 156 are the same. The number of teeth of the sixth gear 143 is M times that of the fifth gear 156. The rotational speed of the sixth gear 143 is 1 / (N*S*M) of the rotational speed of the first gear 182. Whether the cable 170 on the surface of the first wire wheel 135 is released or recovered, it is ensured that when the cable 170 on the surface of the first wire wheel 135 is released or recovered from one end to the other end, the moving block 146 just drives the flexible cable board 147 to move from one end of the reciprocating lead screw 142 to the other end, avoiding the overlapping of the cables 170 and causing the cables 170 to knot. The principle of the second wire wheel 136 is the same as that of the first wire wheel 135 and will not be elaborated here.

[0065] In the application scenario of the present utility model, for example, when the motor 131 is started and the power output shaft 132 of the motor 131 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, the first gear 182 rotates synchronously with the power output shaft 132. The rotation of the first gear 182 drives the second gear 137 to rotate through the first transmission belt 139. The rotation of the second gear 137 drives the first rotating shaft 134 to rotate. The rotation of the first rotating shaft 134 drives the first transmission shaft 180 to rotate. The rotation of the first transmission shaft 180 drives the second rotating shaft 181 to rotate. The first wire wheel 135 and the second wire wheel 136 of the first wire wheel assembly 130a and the first wire wheel 135 and the second wire wheel 136 of the second wire wheel assembly 130b rotate coaxially and synchronously at the rotational speed of the second gear 137. At this time, the first wire wheel 135 and the second wire wheel 136 start to wind and unwind the cable 170. The runner 160 rotates synchronously under the drive of the cable 170. The rotation of the first transmission shaft 180 drives the third gear 152 to rotate at the rotational speed of the second gear 137. The rotation of the third gear 152 drives the fourth gear 155 to rotate through the second transmission belt 154. The fifth gear 156 rotates synchronously with the fourth gear 155, and the rotational speeds of the fifth gear 156 and the fourth gear 155 are the same. The rotation of the fifth gear 156 drives the sixth gear 143 to rotate through the third transmission belt 144. The rotation of the sixth gear 143 drives the reciprocating lead screw 142 to rotate. The rotation of the reciprocating lead screw 142 causes the moving block 146 to perform a reciprocating movement along the axial direction of the reciprocating lead screw 142, so that the flexible cable board 147 performs a reciprocating movement along the axial direction of the reciprocating lead screw 142.

[0066] When the first transmission shaft 180 rotates, it drives the first wire wheels 135 and the second wire wheels 136 of the first steering wheel assemblies 130a at both ends of the first platform 110 and the first wire wheels 135 and the second wire wheels 136 of the second steering wheel assemblies 130b to rotate at the same speed. Furthermore, it drives the reciprocating lead screws 142 of the wire arranging assemblies 140 at both ends of the first platform 110 to move at the same speed, so that the wire arranging plates 147 of the wire arranging assemblies 140 at both ends perform reciprocating motions along the axial direction of the reciprocating lead screws 142 at the same moving speed.

[0067] After the motor 131 is started, the cleaning device 310 moves back and forth between the first platform 110 and the second platform 120 driven by the cable 170. During the movement of the cleaning device 310, its rotary brush 313 cleans the photovoltaic panel array 200. If the power output shaft 132 of the motor 131 rotates clockwise after the motor 131 is started, at this time the cleaning device 310 moves from the first platform 110 to the second platform 120. When the cleaning device 310 reaches the second platform 120, the motor 131 is turned off and restarted. At this time, the power output shaft 132 rotates counterclockwise, and the cleaning device 310 starts to move from the second platform 120 to the first platform 110. This process is repeated until the cleaning is completed.

[0068] The advantages of the present application are as follows. A cable device and a robot are provided. The cable device includes a first platform, a second platform, two steering wheel assemblies, two wire arranging assemblies, two transmission assemblies, two runners and two cables. The first platform is installed at one end of a photovoltaic panel array; the second platform is installed at the other end of the photovoltaic panel array. The two steering wheel assemblies are respectively installed at both ends of the first platform, and the two runners are respectively installed at both ends of the second platform. One end of the cable is wound clockwise around a wire wheel of the steering wheel assembly, and the other end is wound counterclockwise around another wire wheel. By controlling the rotation direction of the wire wheels of the steering wheel assembly with the motor, the two wire wheels of the wire wheel assembly are controlled to take in and pay out the wire. During the process of taking in and paying out the cable, the cleaning device of the robot is driven to move on the photovoltaic panel array. During the movement of the cleaning device, the surface of the photovoltaic panel is cleaned, saving labor, time cost and manufacturing cost.
