Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ice-melting and snow-melting devices, and more particularly to an ice-melting and snow-melting device for a satellite antenna. Background Art
[0002] It is an important political task for national radio and television broadcasting stations (integrated media centers) to rebroadcast central and provincial radio and television programs. Ensuring that the stations have high-quality signal sources for central and provincial radio and television programs is an important task in the stations' broadcasting work. The signal source mainly receives downlink signals from synchronous satellites through satellite antennas. Whenever winter comes, satellite antennas are often covered with thick ice and snow due to snowfall and freezing rain. If not cleared in time, the accumulated snow will change the physical focusing performance of the satellite antenna, causing the satellite antenna to fail to receive signals or the signal quality to seriously degrade, which will directly affect the station's program broadcasting work. The traditional snow removal method requires manual cleaning of the surface of the satellite antenna, which is not only dangerous, but also time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the cleaning effect is poor. In addition, the traditional flushing, wind blowing and electric heating methods are large in equipment, complex to install, and easy to cause certain damage to the satellite antenna.

Fixing screws 14 are provided inside the mounting holes 13, and a filter 19 is provided inside the circulation port 11.
[0030] More specifically, when removing snow, the user can turn on the duct fan 8 to blow air to the heater 9, so that the heat generated by the heater 9 enters the cavity 3 through the hot air outlet 10 and the air inlet pipe 5 to heat the satellite antenna body 1 and the membrane layer 2, thereby achieving the effect of removing snow.
[0031] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4As an implementation method for providing electrical energy to the device: a power supply 15 is provided inside the control box 6 and at the lower end of the partition 7, a temperature controller 16 is provided on one side of the power supply 15, the temperature controller 16 is electrically connected to the power supply 15, and the heater 9 is electrically connected to the temperature controller 16, a surge protector 17 is provided on the other side of the power supply 15 and located inside the control box 6, a leakage protection switch 18 is provided on one side of the surge protector 17, and both the surge protector 17 and the leakage protection switch 18 are electrically connected to the power supply 15.
[0032] Specifically, by setting a temperature controller 16, the heater 9 can be controlled to facilitate adjusting the heating temperature of the heater 9 according to the external temperature, thereby achieving a better snow melting effect. By setting a surge protector 17 and a leakage protection switch 18, the electrical components inside the control box 6 can be protected and their service life can be increased.
[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 As a further implementation method for supporting the satellite antenna body 1 : a support frame 20 is fixedly provided on the lower end surface of the satellite antenna body 1 .

[0035] In summary, when the overall device is in use: the user can turn on the duct fan 8 to blow air to the heater 9, so that the heat generated by the heater 9 enters the cavity 3 through the hot air outlet 10 and the air inlet pipe 5, so as to heat the satellite antenna body 1 and the membrane layer 2, thereby achieving the effect of snow removal. By setting the temperature controller 16, the heater 9 can be controlled to facilitate adjusting the heating temperature of the heater 9 according to the external temperature, thereby achieving a better snow melting effect. By setting the surge protector 17 and the leakage protection switch 18. It can protect the electrical components inside the control box 6 and increase its service life. The membrane layer 2 can convert the snow in the parabolic area into snow accumulation on the surface of the tensile membrane, increasing the physical steepness of the snow accumulation surface. When it snows, the snowflakes will slide down naturally, making it difficult to form snow accumulation. The satellite antenna body 1 and the membrane layer 2 form a nearly closed cavity. After the hot air is introduced, the temperature rises quickly, especially the thermal effect formed on the surface layer of the tensile membrane is more obvious. As long as the membrane surface is greater than zero degrees, the membrane surface cannot freeze or accumulate snow. Therefore, the device has a good ice and snow melting ability.
