[0026] The utility model is further explained below in connection with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0027] The utility model discloses a solar photovoltaic equipment arrangement structure of automobile roll-on / roll-off ship, which is arranged on the upper part of the outer plate of the ship, and the solar photovoltaic equipment is arranged on the upper part of the outer plate of the ship. Figure 4 and Figure 5 The utility model discloses the drawing of the utility model is only a schematic diagram, and the number, size and distance between each other of the actual solar cell panel or photovoltaic cell panel can be adjusted reasonably according to the manufacturer's suggestion and construction technology when actually arranging.

[0028] The solar photovoltaic equipment required by the utility model is mainly arranged in the vertical plate region above the main deck (the main deck of the automobile roll-on / roll-off ship is generally 3 decks or 4 decks or 5 decks) without opening, and it is difficult to arrange the solar photovoltaic equipment in the curved plate region with a wired type change, which is not required here; meanwhile, the region below the main deck is close to the full load waterline, and it is most likely to be affected by the load of sea waves, which greatly influences the safety and stability of the solar photovoltaic equipment, and it is not recommended to arrange the solar photovoltaic equipment.

[0029] The solar photovoltaic equipment (solar cell panel or photovoltaic panel) is arranged on the outer plate of the ship on both sides of the automobile roll-on / roll-off ship, and there are multiple arrangement schemes in actual operation, and the following will introduce five typical schemes, but other similar transformation schemes also belong to the protection scope of the utility model.

[0030] Embodiment one

[0031] A solar photovoltaic equipment arrangement structure of automobile roll-on / roll-off ship is provided with solar photovoltaic panels 5 covering at least one deck layer height on the part of the outer plate 1 above the main deck 4, the solar photovoltaic panels 5 are rotated at the height of one upper deck 3, and can be rotated upwards or downwards by 80°-100° under the drive of a self-provided overturning power mechanism, and the upper surface of the solar photovoltaic panels 5 is provided with solar photovoltaic materials after overturning.

[0032] Specifically in the embodiment, the arranged solar cell panel or photovoltaic panel 5 is hung outside the outer plate 1 and parallel to the outer plate 1, and the panel 5 is in a fixed state and does not rotate or move, as shown in Figure 6

[0033] Embodiment two

[0034] On the basis of embodiment one, the bottommost solar cell panel or photovoltaic panel 6 can rotate around the upper edge of the panel, and the rotation angle can be intelligently adjusted according to the direction of light or manually adjusted by a machine or software, and the maximum rotation angle is 100 degrees, that is, perpendicular to the outer plate 1, as shown in Figure 7 ​As shown in the left figure, the rotating solar panel 7 and the upper fixed solar panel 5 receive solar energy at the same time, which has a higher power generation efficiency. When the wind and wave environment at sea is severe or there are other influences, the solar panel 7 can be dropped down. After dropping, the power generation efficiency is the same as that of the first solution.

[0035] Example 3:

[0036] Similar to the second embodiment, the bottom solar panel or photovoltaic-6 in this solution is rotated around the lower edge of the panel to reach the required angle. After the rotation, the panel 7, such as Figure 7 As shown in the figure on the right. When encountering severe wind and wave conditions at sea or other impacts, the solar panels 7 can be raised and placed. After being raised, the same as in Scheme 1. Meanwhile, the bottommost solar panel 6 of this scheme can be a single-layer panel, or it can be a two-layer or multi-layer overlapping solar panel suspended on the side outer plate 1. When the bottommost solar panel 6 is fully raised, only the outer panels absorb solar energy to operate. When rotated to a certain angle, especially to the maximum angle (90 degrees) (this state is referred to as 7), in addition to the rotated bottom solar panel 7, the bottom inner layer of solar panels 6 fixed to the side outer plate also begin to operate. This scheme has special requirements for the bottom outer solar panel 7, namely that both sides of the panel must be able to absorb solar energy to operate.

[0037] Example 4:

[0038] like Figure 8 As shown in the left figure, the side solar panel or photovoltaic panel 6 adopts the type of an integral panel in the height direction (while in the length direction, multiple panels are used according to the actual manufacturer's recommendation). The panel 6 can rotate around its upper edge and adjust the angle of rotation intelligently according to the direction of light or manually operate the machine or software. The maximum rotation angle is 90 degrees, that is, perpendicular to the side outer plate -1. The state at this time is called 7. When encountering severe wind and wave conditions at sea or other influences, the panel 7 can be dropped and placed. After dropping, it is similar to the embodiment of the first embodiment.

[0039] Solution 5: Similar to Example 4, the side solar panels or photovoltaic panels 6 also adopt a single panel in the vertical direction. However, the panels in this solution are rotated around their lower edges to achieve the required angle. When the wind and wave environment is severe at sea or there are other influences, the panels can be raised and placed. After being raised, it is similar to Solution 1. At the same time, this solution can also adopt the form of two or more layers of overlapping panels suspended on the side outer plate 1. When fully raised, only the outer panels 6 absorb solar energy to operate. When rotated to a certain angle, especially to the maximum angle (90 degrees), in addition to the rotated panels 7, the inner panels 6 fixed to the side outer plate 1 also begin to operate. The outer panels 7 of this solution have special requirements, namely that both the front and back sides of the panels can absorb solar energy to operate.

[0040] Herein, the second embodiment to the fifth embodiment, whichever scheme, for the part that can rotate can also be made into a way of multi-piece plate overlapping arrangement, after rotation, according to the need, the inner folded plate is unfolded, after unfolding, it can generally reach 2-6 times of the original width, so as to maximize the role of solar cell panel, here, taking the second scheme as an example, the unfolded schematic diagram of two or three layers of plates is briefly introduced, please refer to Figure 9 .

[0041] For rotation, hydraulic or sliding method can be adopted, in order to ensure its safety and stability, for example, after rotation, support rods should be extended at the bottom or stretching rods should be extended at the upper part, etc., reasonable structure and fixing device should be designed to ensure the stability and safety of the solar photovoltaic equipment during the sailing of the ship, these are not the focus of the utility model, and belong to the prior art in terms of implementation means, which will not be described in detail here.

[0042] Among them, the second embodiment to the fifth embodiment are relatively preferred embodiments.

In addition, solar cell panel or photovoltaic panel suitable for installation on the ship should be selected, which should have high efficiency, weather resistance and corrosion resistance to adapt to the marine environment.

[0044] Battery storage: according to the power generation capacity of solar or photovoltaic panel, a battery with large enough capacity is arranged to store the electric energy generated by the solar cell panel, the stored electric energy can be used at night or on cloudy days. When used, a suitable inverter can be used to convert the direct current generated after absorbing solar energy into alternating current for use.

[0045] Intelligent control: since the sunlight angle changes in different seasons and at different times, some schemes of the solar cell panel or photovoltaic panel of the utility model can intelligently adjust the normal direction of the panel according to the direction of sunlight, which can maximize the solar energy yield and improve the energy utilization efficiency.

[0046] Monitoring and management system: a monitoring and management system is arranged to monitor the performance and running state of the solar photovoltaic equipment in real time. The system can provide data analysis and fault diagnosis to ensure the efficient operation and maintenance of the system.

[0048] Flexibility: the solar photovoltaic panels on both sides can be raised or lowered, adjusted according to the actual situation of weather, light, port requirements, etc., increasing the flexibility and adaptability of the system.

[0049] In addition, the utility model is on the basis of better prior art (i.e. the scheme of setting photovoltaic solar cell panel on the upper open deck has been applied) sets up solar photovoltaic panel on both sides of the outer plate to receive solar energy more fully to carry out more efficient power generation work.

[0050] The utility model makes full use of the space utilization of both sides of the outer plate, makes full use of clean renewable energy (solar energy) to help car roll-on / roll-off ship energy saving and emission reduction, effectively reduces operating cost, improves market competitiveness, the arrangement characteristics of each scheme of side solar cell panel or photovoltaic panel, shows the flexibility of arrangement, has greater solar energy receiving and conversion electric energy potential.
