Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of solar panel installation technology, specifically a vehicle-mounted solar panel support mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Solar panels are typically installed on rooftops or in the wild using brackets. To better absorb solar energy, they are usually placed at an angle. Installing solar panels on small electric vehicles can increase their range. However, because vehicles need to minimize wind resistance during operation, rooftop solar panels are generally installed parallel or with a curved surface, thus they cannot effectively absorb solar energy.

[0003] A prior art application (application number 202020437558.7) describes a vehicle-mounted solar panel support frame, comprising a frame and a mounting frame for fixing solar panels. The frame includes a rectangular frame and a lead screw motor fixed to one end of the rectangular frame. Four horizontal bars are evenly distributed along the length of the inner wall of the rectangular frame. The four horizontal bars divide the rectangular frame into five rectangular slots for mounting the mounting frames. The upper surface of the frame is rotatably connected to the mounting frame via hinges. A through hole for mounting the lead screw motor's lead screw is opened in the middle of one end of the frame. Five lead screw sliders are mounted on the lead screw of the lead screw motor. The upper surface of the lead screw sliders is rotatably connected to the lower end of a connecting rod via a hinge. The upper end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the lower surface of the mounting frame via a hinge. This invention, through the cooperation of the frame and five mounting frames, and the synchronous drive of the lead screw motor to control the tilt angle of the mounting frame, increases the direct sunlight intake of the solar panels, solving the problem that existing vehicle-mounted solar panels can only be placed flat. However, it is inconvenient to adjust the usage state of the support plate and the solar panels, and the functionality of the support plate is limited. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a vehicle-mounted solar panel support mechanism to solve the problems in the prior art where it is inconvenient to adjust the use status of the support plate and the solar panel, and the support function is poor and lacks variety.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a vehicle-mounted solar panel support mechanism, comprising a first support plate, a first solar panel disposed on the upper side of the first support plate, side support plates disposed on both sides of the first support plate, a second support plate rotatably disposed in a first groove on the upper side of the side support plate via a connecting shaft and a connecting plate, a second solar panel disposed on one side of the second support plate, a motor being connected to one end of the connecting shaft via a gear set, a third support plate disposed in a second groove on one side of the second support plate via an electric push rod, and a third solar panel disposed on one side of the third support plate.

[0006] Furthermore, the first support plate has mounting plates at both ends, and the mounting plates have mounting holes inside. The width between the first support plate and the two side support plates is equal to the width of the vehicle body.

[0007] Furthermore, the first support plate is provided on both sides of the first support plate, and the second support plate is provided on the lower side of one end of the second support plate.

[0008] Furthermore, both the first support plate and the second support plate are rectangular support plates, and the second support plate is a rubber pad.

[0009] Furthermore, a first heat insulation layer is provided on one side of the second support plate and the second groove, and a second heat insulation layer is provided on one side of the third support plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the inner wall of the second groove is also provided with a limiting groove, and the two sides of the third bearing plate are also provided with limiting sliders that slide with the limiting groove.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] This utility model features a second support plate and a second solar panel rotatably mounted within the first groove on the upper side of the side support plate via a connecting shaft and a connecting plate. One end of the connecting shaft is connected to a motor via a gear set, allowing the motor and gear set to drive the connecting shaft to rotate in both directions. This enables the second support plate to be flipped and adjusted, thereby allowing the second solar panel to be used in any position. When not in use, the second solar panel can be flipped and retracted onto the upper side of the first support plate, providing shading and protection for both the first and second solar panels. Furthermore, when the second support plate is unfolded, it is located above the vehicle entrance / exit, providing sun or rain protection for passengers, thus enhancing the versatility of its carrying function.

[0013] In this utility model, a third support plate is provided in the second groove on one side of the second support plate via an electric push rod, and a third solar panel is provided on one side of the third support plate. This allows the area for solar power generation to be expanded by utilizing the third support plate and the third solar panel, while also increasing the area for sunshade or rain protection. Furthermore, the third support plate can be completely retracted into the second support plate when not in use, improving the flexibility of use within the third support plate.

[0014] This utility model also provides a limiting groove on the inner wall of the second groove, and limiting sliders that slide with the limiting groove on both sides of the third bearing plate, which can guide the movement of the third bearing plate and improve the stability of the lateral movement adjustment of the third bearing plate.

These can guide the movement of the third bearing plate 9 and improve the stability of the lateral adjustment of the third bearing plate 9.

[0027] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: In use, a second support plate 5 and a second solar panel 18 are rotatably mounted in the first groove 3 on the side support plate 2 of the first support plate 1 via a connecting shaft 14 and a connecting plate 4. One end of the connecting shaft 14 is connected to a motor 16 via a gear set 15, so that the motor 16 and the gear set 15 drive the connecting shaft 14 to rotate forward and backward, thereby adjusting the second support plate 5 and thus adjusting the usage state of the second solar panel 18. When the second solar panel 18 is not in use, it can be flipped and retracted on the upper side of the first support plate 1 to provide shading and protection for the first solar panel 17 and the second solar panel 18. Moreover, when the second support plate 5 is unfolded, it is located above the vehicle entrance and exit, which can provide sunshade or rain protection for passengers, thus improving the versatility of its carrying function.
