Understandably, different sensors in different locations have different environments and monitoring sensitivities, resulting in large differences in the reading of monitoring data and insufficient data accuracy and continuity, making it difficult to provide photovoltaic power stations with accurate and continuous sunlight angle and light intensity data. Utility Model Content

[0020] The present invention adopts the above technical solution, and compared with the prior art, has the following technical effects:
[0021] In this technical solution, the rack includes a fuselage and a frame, and the fuselage can rotate relative to the frame. It is understandable that the rack in this technical solution has more degrees of freedom than an integrated rack, making the components on the rack more flexible during operation. The frame includes multiple support legs and a mounting plate, that is, the entire rack is supported and fixed by these support legs. A driving member is provided in the inner cavity of the fuselage, which can drive the gear transmission member to move.

[0027] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.
[0028] Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative work shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0029] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown: The utility model proposes an environmental monitoring device for a photovoltaic power station.
[0030] In an embodiment of the present invention, the environmental monitoring device for a photovoltaic power station includes:
[0031] The frame 100 includes a body 120 and a frame 110. The frame 110 includes a plurality of support legs and a mounting plate 130. The body 120 is rotatably connected to a side of the mounting plate 130 away from the support legs. A drive member is provided within the body 120.
[0032] a gear transmission member 400 disposed between the mounting plate 130 and the driving member; the gears in the gear transmission member 400 extend in the same direction as the mounting plate 130; an input end 410 of the gear transmission member 400 is connected to the driving member, and an output end 420 of the gear transmission member 400 is connected to the mounting plate 130, so that the body 120 can rotate relative to the mounting plate 130;
[0033] a rotating rod 200 rotatably connected to a side of the body 120 away from the frame 110 , and a light source sensor module 300 is mounted on the rotating rod 200 ;
[0034] A controller 630 , wherein the controller 630 is fixedly mounted on the body 120 and is electrically connected to the driving component and the light source sensor module 300 ;
[0035] The power supply unit is provided in the body 120 and is electrically connected to the driving component, the controller 630 and the light source sensor module 300 .
[0036] In this technical solution, the rack 100 includes a body 120 and a frame 110. The body 120 can rotate relative to the frame 110. As can be understood, the rack 100 in this technical solution has more degrees of freedom than an integrated rack 100, allowing for greater flexibility in the operation of components on the rack 100. The frame 110 includes multiple support legs and a mounting plate 130, that is, the entire rack 100 is supported and fixed by these support legs. A driving member is provided in the inner cavity of the fuselage 120, which can drive the gear transmission member 400 to move. Under the action of the gear transmission member 400, the entire fuselage 120 can rotate relative to the frame 110. At the same time, the extension direction of the gear in the gear transmission member 400 is consistent with the extension direction of the mounting plate 130, so that the fuselage 120 can rotate 360 degrees relative to the frame 110. The driving member is controlled by the controller 630. It can be understood that the staff can control the rotational movement of the entire fuselage 120 by controlling the driving member, which greatly increases the degree of freedom of the device. In addition, the setting of the gear transmission member 400 also makes the structure of the entire device more compact and improves the space utilization rate of the device.
[0037] The rotating rod 200 can also be rotatably connected to the body 120. Since the light source sensor module 300 is also located on the rotating rod 200, it can be understood that the light source sensor module 300 and the body 120, and the body 120 and the frame 110 can rotate relative to each other, thereby increasing the freedom of movement of the light source sensor module 300 compared to the frame 110. Under the control of the controller 630, automatic tracking technologies such as vertical and horizontal drive microelectronic control technology are used, combined with trajectory algorithms and light spot effects for automatic adjustment, so that after the light source sensor module 300 detects sunlight, it controls the driving device to rotate so that the light source sensor module 300 always faces the direct surface of the sun, thereby avoiding the different environments and monitoring sensitivities of different sensors at different positions, resulting in large differences in the reading of monitoring data and inaccurate and continuous data. Accordingly, accurate and continuous light angle and light intensity data are provided to the photovoltaic power station.
[0038] Furthermore, the rotating rod 200 is provided with a rotation groove 210 at its waist. The groove 210 is configured as a circumferential opening that encircles the rod. The rotating rod 200 is rotatably connected to the body 120 via the rotation groove 210. In this technical solution, the rotation groove 210 is provided at the waist. It is understood that the provision of the rotation groove 210 allows for the accommodation of rotating components between the rotating rod 200 and the body 120. In one embodiment, relative rotation is achieved between the body 120 and the rotating rod 200 via a gear train, a fixed connection between the driving component and the input gear, and a fixed connection between the rotating rod 200 and the output gear. In another embodiment, relative rotation can be achieved via a timing belt. It is important to note that providing a rotation connection point at the waist of the rod allows the weight of the rotating rod 200 on both sides of the rotation connection point to be more evenly distributed, thereby making the connection of the rotating rod 200 more stable. Furthermore, since the rotating rod 200 has no connection points at either end, it also increases the space for component placement at the ends of the rotating rod 200.
[0039] Furthermore, the light source sensor module 300 is rotatably connected to the end of the rotating rod 200. In this technical solution, the light source sensor module 300 is not only connected to the rod end, but can also rotate relative to the rod end. In one embodiment, the relative rotation between the two is achieved by a servo, and in another embodiment, the relative rotation is achieved by a motor 500. It can be understood that the placement of the light source sensor module 300 at the rod end ensures that it is unobstructed, thereby maximizing the detection range. At the same time, the addition of relative rotation also increases the freedom of movement of the light source sensor module 300, enabling more continuous and accurate detection of sunlight.
[0040] Furthermore, the power supply unit is configured as an energy storage battery 620. In this embodiment, the power supply unit is configured as the energy storage battery 620. During the day, the device can absorb and convert solar energy into electrical energy. The establishment of the energy storage battery 620 enables the device to store the energy absorbed and converted during the day in the energy storage battery 620. At night, since there is no solar energy conversion, the energy stored during the day can be used, thereby increasing the working time of the device, thereby achieving the effect of fully utilizing energy and improving work efficiency.
[0041] Furthermore, the rack 100 is also provided with a communication transmission module 610. In this technical solution, the rack 100 is also provided with a communication transmission module 610. It can be understood that the establishment of the communication transmission module 610 establishes a connection between the device and electronic products such as mobile phones or computers, allowing staff to monitor and control the operation of the rack 100 in real time even when they are away from the rack 100. When there is a problem with the drive control, it can also be discovered and repaired immediately.
[0042] Furthermore, the rack 100 is provided with a positioning module 640. In the present technical solution, the rack 100 is provided with the positioning module 640, so that the position of the rack 100 can be determined by the positioning module 640. It is understandable that since most devices are used in the field and are mostly stored separately, the provision of the positioning module 640 allows the user to immediately lock the position of the device, thereby improving work efficiency and facilitating daily maintenance and repair.
[0043] Furthermore, the rack 100 is also provided with a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor. In this technical solution, the rack 100 is provided with a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor, so that the rack 100 can detect the temperature and humidity changes near the project in real time and transmit the information to the mobile phone app through communication means, so that the staff can grasp the latest situation in real time and make the most timely response when needed.
[0044] Furthermore, the rack 100 is also provided with a camera 700. The rack 100 is provided with the camera 700. It is also understandable that the provision of the camera 700 enables images near the rack 100 to be transmitted to the staff immediately, which helps the staff to grasp the latest situation in real time so that they can respond in a timely manner when needed. It can also perform safety inspections on the work site of the rack 100, thereby improving the safety of the project.
[0045] Furthermore, the rack 100 is provided with a device storage box 600, which is detachably mounted on the side surface of the housing 120. The communication transmission module 610, the energy storage battery 620, the controller 630, and the positioning module 640 are all mounted within the interior of the device storage box 600. In this technical solution, the provision of the device storage box 600 on the rack 100 allows the communication transmission module 610, the energy storage battery 620, the controller 630, and the positioning module 640 to be contained within the box, thereby reducing the possibility of damage and facilitating routine maintenance and repairs by personnel.
[0046] Furthermore, the driving member is a motor 500. In this technical solution, the driving member is configured as a motor 500. The provision of the motor 500 improves the driving efficiency of the driving member. Of course, in other embodiments, the driving member can also be configured as a steering gear.
