DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0027] Figures 1 to 5 Is the best embodiment of the present utility model. The following further describes the present utility model in conjunction with the attached Figures 1 to 5 Drawings.

[0028] Such asFigures 1 to 3 As shown in the figure, a parking position for a cleaning robot of a photovoltaic module (hereinafter referred to as the parking position) includes a main frame with a rectangular structure. The main frame is formed by docking and fixing two cross beams 1 and two vertical beams 2. Among them, the two cross beams 1 are arranged opposite to each other, the two vertical beams 2 are arranged opposite to each other, and the two opposite vertical beams are fixed between the two cross beams 1. One end of each of the two ends of one vertical beam 2 is fixed to one end of the two cross beams 1, and the two ends of the other vertical beam 2 are fixed to the other end of the two cross beams.

[0029] The side of the vertical beam 2 in the main frame is its long side. Since the two vertical beams 2 are located between the two cross beams 1, the length of the vertical beam 2 is the same as the sum of the thicknesses of the two cross beams 1 and the length of the edge of the photovoltaic panel in the photovoltaic module. Therefore, after fixing this parking position at the edge of the photovoltaic module, the edges of the two cross beams 1 are flush with the two side edges of the photovoltaic panel to ensure that the cleaning robot can be smoothly transferred to the surface of this parking position.

[0030] A blocking mechanism is provided on the surface of the main frame to prevent the cleaning robot from falling off the surface of this parking position. The blocking mechanism includes multiple vertical blocking rods 7 fixed at the outer edge of the main frame. One vertical blocking rod 7 is provided at each of the two ends of the outer edge of the main frame, and at the same time, two are arranged at intervals in the middle of the surface of the outer vertical beam 2. The four vertical blocking rods 7 at both ends and in the middle are all fixed perpendicular to the main frame.

[0031] The blocking mechanism further includes a cleaning frame. The cleaning frame includes two cleaning cross beams 5. The two cleaning cross beams 5 are respectively fixed to the upper ends of the two vertical blocking rods 7 located in the middle and are fixed perpendicular to the vertical blocking rods 7. Cleaning vertical beams 4 are also fixed at the ends of the two cleaning cross beams 5. The cleaning frame composed of the cleaning cross beams 5 and the cleaning vertical beams 4 is located directly above the main frame.

[0032] A brush is provided on the lower surface of the cleaning vertical beam 4. The brush is arranged along the length direction of the cleaning vertical beam 4. In the prior art, the cleaning robot itself generally also uses photovoltaic power supply. When the cleaning robot moves to this parking position, the brush of the cleaning vertical beam 4 faces the photovoltaic panel on the surface of the cleaning robot and cleans it.

[0033] Multiple docking channel steels 3 are also fixed at the lower part of the main frame. The multiple docking channel steels 3 are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the vertical beam 2. The number and installation positions of the docking channel steels 3 correspond one by one to the fixing rods used to fix the photovoltaic panels in the photovoltaic module. When fixing this parking position to the photovoltaic module, it is achieved through the docking channel steels 3 and the corresponding fixing rods.

[0034] The docking channel steels 3 are arranged perpendicular to the vertical beam 2. The inner and outer ends of the docking channel steels 3 respectively protrude from the two vertical beams 2. The docking channel steels 3 are fixed to the two vertical beams 2 of the main frame through the inner fixing mechanism and the outer fixing mechanism at both ends. Combined Figure 4, the internal fixing mechanism includes an internal fixing hoop 8, which is U-shaped. There are two internal fixing hoops 8, and the two internal fixing hoops 8 are respectively located on both sides of the docking channel steel 3. After the two internal fixing hoops 8 penetrate through the vertical beam 2, their bottoms are stuck on the surface of the vertical beam 2, and their open ends extend to the bottom of the docking channel steel 3.

[0035] On the upper surface of the docking channel steel 3 near the photovoltaic module, a relief opening 12 is also provided. The position of the relief opening 12 corresponds to the edge pressing block at the end of the photovoltaic module, so as to prevent the edge pressing block from interfering with the fixation of the docking channel steel and the photovoltaic module when the photovoltaic module is docked.

[0036] The internal fixing mechanism further includes two fixing baffles 9 respectively docked with the two internal fixing hoops 8. A set of fixing holes are correspondingly provided at both ends of the fixing baffle 9. One open end of the two internal fixing hoops 8 passes through the fixing holes of one of the fixing baffles 9 and is fixed by a set of nuts; the other open end of the two internal fixing hoops 8 passes through the fixing holes of the other fixing baffle 9 and is fixed by nuts.

[0037] Combined Figure 5 , the external fixing mechanism includes an external fixing hoop 13, which is also U-shaped. A set of fixing holes are provided on the surface of the docking channel steel 3. After the external fixing hoop 13 penetrates through the vertical beam 2, its bottom is stuck on the surface of the vertical beam 2. The open ends of the external fixing hoop 13 respectively pass through the fixing holes on the surface of the docking channel steel 3 and then enter the inside of the docking channel steel 3, and are fixed by nuts.

[0038] The docking channel steel 3 is connected to the fixing rod in the photovoltaic module through a locking assembly 6. The locking assembly 6 includes a U-shaped locking hoop 11 with the same structure as the internal fixing hoop 8, and a locking baffle 10 corresponding to the locking hoop 11. After the locking hoop 11 penetrates through the surface of the docking channel steel 3, its bottom is stuck on the upper surface of the docking channel steel 3, and both ends of its open end extend to the lower surface of the docking channel steel 3. The locking baffle 10 has the same structure as the fixing baffle 9. After both ends of the open end of the locking hoop 11 pass through the fixing holes on the surface of the locking baffle 10, they are locked by nuts.

[0039] The specific installation process is as follows:

[0040] After the assembly of this shutdown device is completed, it is docked with the photovoltaic module. During docking, the fixing rods at the ends of the photovoltaic modules are installed one by one into the corresponding docking channel steel 3. The surface of the docking channel steel 3 is also provided with a clearance opening 12 corresponding to the edge pressure block at the end of the photovoltaic module. After the fixing rod is docked with the docking channel steel 3, the nut at the end of the locking clamp 11 in the rotating locking assembly 6 is used to deform and tighten the end of the docking channel steel 3. During the tightening process, the fixing rod is gradually squeezed, and finally the docking channel steel 3 is fixed to the fixing rod, thereby completing the installation of this shutdown device at the photovoltaic module.

[0041] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not constitute any limitation thereto. Any person skilled in the art may utilize the above disclosure to modify or remodel the present invention into equivalent embodiments. However, any simple modification, equivalent variation, or modification of the above embodiment that does not depart from the technical content of the present invention and is based on the technical essence of the present invention shall still fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
