Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of heliostats, and in particular relates to a heliostat connecting seat. Background Art

[0002] Existing heliostat connectors are broadly categorized into two types: split and integrated. While the split design is easier to manufacture, it makes the overall structure heavier and requires more bolts to ensure load-bearing performance, increasing costs. To achieve load-bearing performance, existing integrated heliostats are often designed as linear structures with multiple bars. This structure significantly increases the difficulty of casting and casting costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] The utility model adopts an integrated heliostat connecting seat with an arc-shaped main body structure to improve the problems of casting difficulty and load-bearing strength of the existing integrated connecting seat.

[0004] The technical solutions adopted by this utility model are specifically as follows:

[0008] The connecting seat body includes a supporting column and a worm gear connecting chamber. The connecting seat body is L-shaped with an arc. The supporting column is arranged at the lower end of the rotating shaft fixing seat. The worm gear connecting chamber is arranged at the lower end of the supporting column. A worm gear assembly is provided in the worm gear connecting chamber.

[0009] The mounting flange is mounted on the bottom of the connecting seat body.

[0010] The front and back sides of the connecting seat body are both curved surfaces.

[0011] A transverse support beam is provided inside the support column, and longitudinal support ribs are provided on the upper and lower sides of the transverse support beam.

[0012] The transverse support beam is provided with two slots therethrough.

[0013] Anti-torsion reinforcement ribs are provided on both sides of the push rod connecting seat.

[0014] The push rod connecting seat is provided with two push rod interfaces located on the same horizontal line.

[0015] A back plate is provided on the back of the connecting seat body.

[0016] The connecting seat body is provided with a drainage hole, and the drainage hole passes through the front and back plates of the connecting seat body.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: the present invention integrates the worm gear housing and the support column into a connecting seat body, so that when installing the heliostat, it is not necessary to connect the connecting seat and the reduction device separately, thereby optimizing the overall structure. At the same time, the present invention optimizes various structural details inside the connecting seat, while ensuring good casting processability and optimizing the overall load-bearing capacity of the structure.

[0025] The specific structure, functions and beneficial effects of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 6 A heliostat connector includes a connector body 1, a shaft mounting base 2, a push rod connector 3, and a mounting flange 4. The shaft mounting base 2 is located at the top of the connector body 1 and is connected to the shaft assembly 5. The push rod connector 3 is located at the front end of the connector body 1 and is used to connect to the push rod. The mounting flange 4 is located at the bottom of the connector body 1 and is used to connect to the column in the heliostat assembly.

[0027] The connecting seat body 1 includes a supporting column 11 and a worm gear connecting chamber 12. The supporting column 11 is arranged below the rotating shaft fixing seat 2 to support the entire connecting seat.

[0028] The worm gear connection compartment 12 is provided at the lower end of the support column 11 and is used to accommodate the worm gear assembly 6. When the worm gear assembly 6 is disposed within the connector body 1, a portion of the worm in the worm gear assembly 6 is disposed outside the worm gear connection compartment 12. During operation, this portion of the worm is connected to an external drive assembly, which rotates the worm and the worm wheel, which is closely meshed with the worm, to achieve the effect of the worm gear assembly 6 operating within the connector body 1. Under the operation of the worm gear assembly 6, the connector body 1 undergoes adjustable rotation, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting the orientation and angle of the connector body 1, and thus the orientation and angle of the heliostat connected thereto.

[0029] To reduce the stress on the connector during operation and improve its resistance to deformation, the connector body 1 is designed to be L-shaped with a curved front and back. Compared to a linear structure, this curved structure distributes and evens the stress, eliminating the need for it to be concentrated in a single area. Based on finite element analysis, this utility model optimizes the overall structure of the connector body 1, resulting in greater resistance to deformation while also reducing material consumption.

[0030] The push rod connector 3 consists of two symmetrically arranged housings. Each housing has a circular push rod interface 32 at its front end, with both connectors 32 positioned on the same horizontal plane. The push rod is connected to the push rod connector 3 via the connectors 32. To enhance the push rod connector 3's resistance to deformation during operation, a torsional reinforcement rib 31 is provided on either side of each housing.

[0031] like Figure 5 、 Figure 6To further enhance the compressive and deformation resistance of the connector body 1, a transverse support beam 111 is provided within the middle section of the support column 11. Longitudinal support ribs 112 are provided on the upper and lower sides of the transverse support beam 111. Two slots 113 are also formed through the transverse support beam 111. These slots 113 are elliptical and located along the central axis of the transverse support beam 111. In the present invention, the slots 113 serve as deformation energy absorption grooves. When the heliostat drives the connector, the connector body 1, particularly the support column 11, is subjected to forces from all directions. These slots 113, acting as deformation energy absorption grooves, effectively absorb energy through their own micro-deformation, gradually dissipating any sudden peak forces applied to the support column 11. This ensures that the entire support column 11 is evenly stressed, thus preventing wear and even overall deformation of the support column 11 when subjected to sudden, large forces. This enhances the deformation resistance of the support column 11 and the connector body 1.

[0032] like Figure 4 The back of the connector body 1 is provided with a back plate 13. In the present invention, the back plate 13 is fixed to the back of the connector body 1 by screws. After removing the back plate 13, the user can install the worm gear assembly 6 in the worm gear connection compartment 12, or perform maintenance or adjustment on the worm gear assembly 6 already installed in the worm gear connection compartment 12.

[0033] Because heliostats are typically installed in harsh natural working environments such as deserts, the support columns 11 are provided with drainage holes 14. These holes 14 extend through the front and back panels 13 of the connector body 1, located precisely at the junction of the support columns 11 and the worm gear connection compartment 12. The provision of drainage holes 14 prevents moisture, sand, and other substances from long-term adhesion to the connector, particularly the connector body 1. When the connector is operating, moisture and sand can be drained out of the connector through drainage holes 14, thereby reducing weathering and corrosion of the connector from the external natural environment and extending the service life of the connector and the connector body 1.
