Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of obstruction light technology, and in particular to a convenient solar panel adjustment mechanism and obstruction light. Background Technology

[0002] With social development and increased environmental awareness, solar energy, as a clean and renewable energy source, is receiving increasing attention. Especially in the field of outdoor lighting equipment, such as obstruction lights, solar power systems are widely used due to their advantages such as no wiring required and low maintenance costs. Obstruction lights are typically installed on high-altitude locations such as iron towers and tall buildings, making installation quite inconvenient. The solar panels used with these lights are usually fixed and difficult to adjust, increasing the workload for installation and maintenance.

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model proposes a convenient solar panel adjustment mechanism and its application in obstruction lights, thereby solving the problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, this utility model proposes a convenient solar panel adjustment mechanism and its application in obstruction lights. This design has the characteristics of simple structure, easy installation and maintenance.

[0005] The first aspect of this application discloses a convenient solar panel adjustment mechanism, including a bracket, a rocker arm, and a mounting component. The mounting component is fixedly installed on the back of the solar panel. The bracket has an "L"-shaped design. The two ends of the rocker arm are pivotally connected to the ends of the mounting component and the bracket, respectively. The mounting component has an elongated adjustment hole, which is slidably connected to a bolt at the bend of the bracket. Using this technical solution, the solar panel can be easily adjusted to a suitable angle during installation.

[0006] More preferably, the rocker arm and the bracket are connected by a hand-tightening nut or a wing nut, and can be manually tightened after the angle of the solar panel is adjusted.

[0007] Optionally, the rocker arm and the bracket are connected by a friction hinge, so that the angle of the solar panel can be adjusted by applying a certain force to the solar panel during installation.

[0008] A second aspect of this application discloses an obstruction light employing a solar panel adjustment mechanism, comprising the aforementioned solar panel adjustment mechanism, an obstruction light, a base, and a solar panel. The obstruction light is fixed to the base, the bracket of the solar panel adjustment mechanism is fixed to the top of the base, and the solar panel is fixed to the mounting bracket. During high-altitude installation, less time is required to adjust the solar panel, making installation more convenient and faster, and reducing the time workers spend at height.

[0009] Further describing the above solution, the obstruction light includes a lamp holder, a lamp cover, a waterproof connector, LED beads, a reflector, a circuit board, a battery, and a sealing ring. The sealing ring is located between the lamp holder and the lamp cover. The battery and circuit board are installed inside the lamp holder, and the LED beads and reflector are installed inside the lamp cover. The circuit board is electrically connected to the solar panel through the waterproof connector. This solution effectively solves the waterproofing problem of the obstruction light.

[0010] To prevent birds from nesting and defecating on the obstruction lights, bird deterrents are installed on top of the lights.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] Convenient angle adjustment: Through the unique design of the rocker arm and bracket structure, combined with the long strip adjustment hole on the mounting piece and the sliding connection at the bend of the bracket, the solar panel can be easily adjusted to the optimal angle without complicated tools or professional skills, which greatly improves installation efficiency and usage flexibility.

[0013] Simple and easy to operate: The connection between the rocker arm and the bracket is achieved by hand-tightening nuts or wing nuts, or by friction hinges. This not only simplifies the adjustment process, but also allows users to quickly lock the desired position without additional auxiliary equipment, enhancing the user-friendliness of the product.

[0014] Improve safety for high-altitude operations: It is particularly suitable for obstruction lights installed at heights. Because it can quickly adjust the angle of the solar panel, it reduces the time workers are exposed to the elements, lowers the risk of high-altitude operations, and ensures personnel safety.

[0015] Enhanced waterproofing: A sealing ring has been added to the internal structure of the obstruction light, and the circuit board is connected to the solar panel through a waterproof connector, which effectively prevents water intrusion, extends the service life of the light, and ensures normal operation under harsh weather conditions.

[0016] Bird-proof design: The bird-proof pins added to the top of the obstruction light can effectively prevent birds from nesting or defecating on its surface, keeping the light fixture clean and avoiding potential safety hazards caused by bird activity. Attached Figure Description

[0028] To make the technical solution and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] Please see Figures 1-2As shown, this embodiment discloses a convenient solar panel adjustment mechanism, including a bracket 1, a rocker arm 2, and a mounting component 3. The mounting component 3 is fixedly installed on the back of the solar panel 4. The bracket 1 has an "L"-shaped design. The two ends of the rocker arm 2 have rotating holes 31 that are respectively connected to the ends of the mounting component 3 and the bracket 1 via a pivot. The mounting component 3 has an elongated adjustment hole 32, which is slidably connected to the bolt at the bend of the bracket 1. Using this technical solution, the solar panel 4 can be easily adjusted to a suitable angle during installation.

[0031] In other embodiments, the rocker arm 2 is connected to the bracket 1 by a hand-tightening nut or a wing nut, and can be manually tightened after adjusting the angle of the solar panel 4.

[0032] In some embodiments, the rocker arm 2 and the bracket 1 are connected by a friction hinge. When the staff installs the solar panel 4, they can directly apply a certain force to adjust the angle of the solar panel 4.

[0033] Example 2

[0034] Please see Figures 3-7 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, this embodiment provides an obstruction light employing a solar panel adjustment mechanism. It includes the aforementioned solar panel adjustment mechanism, as well as an obstruction light 5, a base 6, and a solar panel 4. The obstruction light 5 is fixed to the base 6, the bracket 1 of the solar panel adjustment mechanism is fixed to the top of the base 6, and the solar panel 4 is fixed to the mounting component 3. During high-altitude installation, there is no need to spend excessive time adjusting the solar panel 4, making installation more convenient and faster, and reducing the time workers spend in the air.

[0035] like Figure 6 As shown, the obstruction light 5 includes a lamp holder 54, a lamp cover 53, a waterproof connector 52, an LED 55, a reflector 56, a circuit board, a battery 57, and a sealing ring 58. The sealing ring 58 is located between the lamp holder 54 and the lamp cover 53. The battery 57 and the circuit board are installed inside the lamp holder 54, and the LED 55 and the reflector 56 are installed inside the lamp cover 53. The circuit board is electrically connected to the solar panel 4 through the waterproof connector 52. This solution effectively solves the waterproofing problem of the obstruction light 5. To prevent birds from nesting and defecating on the obstruction light 5, a bird deterrent needle 51 is also installed on the top of the obstruction light 5.

[0036] To gain a more thorough and comprehensive understanding of the disclosure of this utility model, its principles will be further explained below in conjunction with its usage.

[0037] During installation, assemble the solar panel adjustment mechanism and obstruction light 5 on the ground beforehand, ensuring all components are correctly connected. First, fix the mounting piece 3 of the solar panel adjustment mechanism to the back of the solar panel 4, and initially set the angle of the solar panel 4 by sliding the bolts at the bend of the bracket 1 through the adjustment hole 32. Then, fix the obstruction light 5 to the base 6, and fix the bracket 1 of the solar panel adjustment mechanism to the top of the base 6.

[0038] The entire device is transported to the designated installation location, such as a tower or other structure requiring obstruction lights 5. Since most assembly work is completed on the ground, the time spent working at height is significantly reduced, improving both work efficiency and safety.

[0039] Next, depending on the specific environment of the installation site, the solar panel 4 is adjusted to the optimal angle for receiving sunlight, utilizing the pivot-type connection or friction hinge connection between the rocker arm 2 and the bracket 1. For hand-tightening nuts or wing nuts, simply tighten them manually after adjusting the angle; for friction hinge connections, only appropriate force needs to be applied to the solar panel 4 to hold it in the desired position. In some cases, it may be necessary to tighten the bolts and nuts with a wrench.

[0040] In addition, the obstruction light 5 is designed with waterproofing and bird protection features in mind, ensuring normal operation and long-term reliability of the equipment under harsh weather conditions. The waterproof connector 52 ensures that the internal circuitry is protected from moisture, while the bird-proof pin 51 on the top effectively prevents birds from perching there, avoiding contamination or damage to the light fixture caused by bird droppings or other substances.

[0041] In summary, the solar panel adjustment mechanism and its application of the obstruction light 5 not only enable convenient adjustment of the solar panel angle 4, but also improve installation efficiency and safety, while possessing good protective performance, making it suitable for widespread application in various occasions where obstruction lights 5 need to be installed.
