At this time, the retractable plate 11 is inside the first base 1. When it is necessary to increase the cleaning area, operate the machine to extend the retractable plate 11 to both sides, and then insert the cleaning device into the brush mounting card slot 14 to increase the overall panel base of the machine, thereby increasing the cleaning area; then connect the end of the water inlet pipe 12 to water and the end of the cleaning liquid input pipe 13 to cleaning liquid. When the machine is started, the cleaning liquid can be sprayed through the cleaning liquid output port 16, and water can be sprayed through the water spray ports 17.

[0026] As Figures 2 - 3As shown in the figure, a drive rod 2 is installed in the middle of the brush installation slot 14; a round brush 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the drive rod 2; the drive rod 2 and the brush installation slot 14 are detachably matched. Since the round brush 21 is fixedly connected to the drive rod 2, when the drive rod 2 and the brush installation slot 14 are directly disassembled, the round brush 21 and the brush installation slot 14 are also separated; two support arms 22 are fixedly connected to the front section of the bottom of the first base 1, and the support arms 22 are symmetrically arranged left and right; a drive motor 23 is fixedly connected to the outer side surface of the upper end of the support arm 22; a long brush 24 is rotatably connected between the two support arms 22, and the long brush 24 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 23, and the long brush 24 is driven to rotate by the drive motor 23.

During operation, the second base 3 is fixedly connected to the first base 1, and at the same time, the second base 3 is hinged to the hydraulic base 31, so that the hydraulic base 31 can freely adjust the angle with the first base 1; at the same time, the hydraulic base 31 can adjust its length according to the needs of the working environment. The operating handle 32 at the top end of the hydraulic base 31 can be used for workers to hold when operating the machine. By providing the second base 3, the connection between the hydraulic base 31 and the second base 3 is stabilized, making the angle between the hydraulic base 31 and the first base 1 more flexible, and the length of the hydraulic base 31 is also more flexible, which is beneficial to cleaning at complex angles.

When the machine is on standby or working, in the case of sufficient outdoor sunlight, the photovoltaic daylighting and electricity storage panels 6 can continuously absorb the energy of sunlight and convert solar energy into electrical energy. Through the setting of the photovoltaic daylighting and electricity storage panels 6, when the machine is not powered on, it can still maintain the operation of the machine through the stored electrical energy, increasing the endurance of the machine.
[0031] During operation, first place the device on the photovoltaic panel to be cleaned. At this time, the entire device is supported by four support wheels 15 and is in a movable state. According to the needs of the working scenario, if it is a small-area cleaning, there is no need to expand the retractable plate 11. At this time, the retractable plate 11 is inside the first base 1.

After the machine starts, the motor inside the machine drives the first base 1 and the water inlet pipe 12 to rotate. At this time, the surface of the round brush 21 contacts the photovoltaic panel to be cleaned to achieve the cleaning effect. During operation, the height of the driving motor 23 can be freely adjusted according to the usage scenario. At this time, turn on the machine, and the driving motor 23 drives the long brush 24 to rotate. The bristles on the surface of the long brush 24 will contact the photovoltaic panel to achieve the cleaning effect. During operation, the second base 3 is fixedly connected to the first base 1, and at the same time, the second base 3 is hinged to the hydraulic base 31, so that the hydraulic base 31 can freely adjust the angle with the first base 1. At the same time, the hydraulic base 31 can adjust its length according to the needs of the working environment. The operation handle 32 at the top of the hydraulic base 31 can be used for workers to hold when operating the machine. During operation, the control base 4 fixes the liquid crystal monitor console 41 on the hydraulic base 31. When the hydraulic base 31 expands and contracts, the control base 4 and the liquid crystal monitor console 41 also expand and contract at the same time. During operation, by operating the liquid crystal monitor console 41, turn on the real-time monitoring function of the radar image detector 5. When the radar image detector 5 detects foreign objects or difficult-to-clean dirt in front of the cleaning area, it will feedback the information to the liquid crystal monitor console 41, and then decide whether to spray the cleaning liquid through the cleaning liquid outlet 16. At the same time, it is also possible to set automatic spraying or manual spraying of the cleaning liquid through the liquid crystal monitor console 41. When the machine is on standby or in operation, in the case of sufficient outdoor sunlight, the photovoltaic lighting and electricity storage panel 6 can continuously absorb the energy of sunlight and convert solar energy into electrical energy.
