[0017] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0018] See also Figures 1 to 3 In an embodiment of the utility model, a slewing bearing for a photovoltaic bracket includes a fixed ring 1 and a rotating ring 2 arranged on the inner circumference of the fixed ring 1, balls 7 are rotatably installed in the raceways of the fixed ring 1 and the rotating ring 2, and dustproof mechanisms are installed on the end faces of the fixed ring 1 and the rotating ring 2; the dustproof mechanism is used to prevent dust and impurities from entering the raceways of the fixed ring 1 and the rotating ring 2, and the dustproof mechanism includes a first protective component and a second protective component; the first protective component is fixedly connected to the two end faces of the fixed ring 1, and the second protective component is fixedly connected to the two end faces of the rotating ring 2, and the first protective component and the second protective component are used to further improve the dustproof effect of the slewing bearing.

[0019] In this embodiment: when the rotating ring 2 and the fixed ring 1 rotate relative to each other, the second protective component connected to the rotating ring 2 rotates along with the rotating ring 2. At this time, the fixed ring 1 and the first protective component remain stationary, so the second protective component rotates relative to the first protective component. The first protective component and the second protective component cooperate to effectively block dust and other particulate impurities, preventing dust or other particulate impurities from entering the interior of the device.

[0020] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first protective component includes a No. 1 dust cover 3 arranged on the two end faces of the fixed ring 1. The No. 1 dust cover 3 is fixedly connected to the fixed ring 1 through a fixing part 4. The inner peripheral part of the fixing part 4 coincides with the end face of the rotating ring 2. The inner side of the fixing part 4 is connected to the contact position of the fixed ring 1 with a sealing ring 6.

[0021] In this embodiment: when the No. 1 dust cover 3 is fixed by the fixing part 4, the sealing ring 6 is squeezed, and the sealing ring 6 is effectively squeezed. At this time, the sealing ring 6 is deformed, which can seal dust or other particulate impurities from passing through the contact position between the fixing ring 1 and the No. 1 dust cover 3 and entering the connection position between the fixing ring 1 and the rotating ring 2.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The second protective assembly includes a No. 2 dust cover 5 fixedly connected to the two end faces of the rotating ring 2. The cross-section of the No. 2 dust cover 5 is an "L"-shaped structure. The vertical part of the No. 2 dust cover 5 is located on the outside of the No. 1 dust cover 3. The outer circumference of the No. 2 dust cover 5 is integrally formed with a dustproof annular plate 8 rotatably connected to the No. 1 dust cover 3. A rotating groove 9 is provided on the outer end surface of the No. 1 dust cover 3 for the dustproof annular plate 8 to rotate.

[0023] In this embodiment: after the No. 2 dust cover 5 is installed with the No. 1 dust cover 3, it is located on the outer end surface of the rotating ring 2. Then, the No. 2 dust cover 5 is fixedly connected to the outer end surface of the rotating ring 2 with bolts. When the rotating ring 2 rotates, the rotating ring 2 drives the No. 2 dust cover 5 and the No. 1 dust cover 3 to rotate relative to each other. At this time, the No. 2 dust cover 5 drives the dustproof annular plate 8 to rotate in the rotating groove 9.

[0024] Please refer to Figure 3 The outer side of the dustproof annular plate 8 is conical, and the conical surface of the dustproof annular plate 8 is narrow at one end close to the second dustproof cover 5, and the conical surface of the dustproof annular plate 8 is wide at one end away from the second dustproof cover 5.

[0025] In this embodiment: since the outer side of the dustproof annular plate 8 is a conical surface, the conical surface rotates with the rotation of the rotating ring 2, so dust is not easy to adhere to the dustproof annular plate 8, thereby avoiding the accumulation of dust on the dustproof annular plate 8, and further reducing the entry of dust into the interior of the device.

[0026] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
