Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of photovoltaic panel accessory technology, specifically relating to an integrated dust and rain guiding component for photovoltaic panels. Background Technology
[0002] A photovoltaic (PV) panel is a power generation device that produces direct current (DC) electricity when exposed to sunlight. It consists of thin, solid-state photovoltaic cells made almost entirely of semiconductor materials. A PV panel comprises photovoltaic cells, glass, a backsheet, and a frame. The photovoltaic cells are the core component of the PV panel, converting light energy into electrical energy. These cells are typically made of semiconductor materials (such as silicon) and convert sunlight into DC electricity. Photovoltaic glass is mainly used to encapsulate the PV module and protect the internal cells. It features high light transmittance, high mechanical strength, and good durability, ensuring stable operation of the PV panel under various environmental conditions. The encapsulating film is located on the top and bottom sides of the cells, serving to bond the cells to the glass and backsheet, while also protecting the cell circuitry from external environmental interference and extending the module's lifespan. The backsheet is the outermost layer of the PV panel, protecting the cells from external environmental influences and is usually made of weather-resistant materials. The frame is used to fix and protect other components of the PV panel and is typically made of aluminum alloy.
[0003] Because photovoltaic panels have frames on the outside, which are usually higher than the front glass of the photovoltaic panel, when it rains, the water flowing from the photovoltaic panel carries dust downwards. The water flows from the higher part of the photovoltaic panel to the lower part and flows over the aluminum frame. However, since the aluminum frame is higher than the front glass of the photovoltaic panel, some water will remain at the frame and cannot flow out. In addition, due to the surface tension of water, a certain depth of gray water will accumulate at the lower edge. After the rainwater evaporates, the dust in the gray water will be deposited, forming a dusty band of varying thickness and width. The dusty band will block sunlight, reduce the transmittance of the photovoltaic panel, and reduce the amount of solar radiation that hits the surface of the battery, thus reducing the power generation. The current method of dealing with this is generally to manually remove the mud and rainwater from the surface of the photovoltaic module, which is not only inefficient. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a simple and reasonably designed integrated dust and rain guiding component for photovoltaic panels in order to solve the above problems.
[0005] This utility model achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions:
[0006] An integrated dust and rain guiding component for photovoltaic panels includes a vertical plate. A flow guide plate with one side curved downwards and forming an arc structure is mounted on the top of the vertical plate. A groove is formed on one side of the vertical plate, located below the flow guide plate. A fixing block is mounted on one side of the vertical plate. The top of the fixing block is provided with a fixing component that cooperates with the flow guide plate. The fixing component includes a clamping plate slidably connected to one side of the vertical plate, a movable plate mounted at the bottom of the clamping plate, a cavity formed within the fixing block, and a sliding plate slidably connected within the cavity. The top of the movable plate extends into the cavity and is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding plate. A spring is mounted at the bottom of the sliding plate, and the bottom end of the spring is fixedly connected to the bottom inner wall of the cavity.
[0007] As a further optimization of this utility model, the downward-curved side edge of the diversion plate has a wavy structure, and a hook is installed at the bottom of the vertical plate, with the hook and the diversion plate located on the same side of the vertical plate.
[0008] As a further optimization of this utility model, a strip groove is provided on one side of the vertical plate, a limiting rod is installed inside the strip groove, a limiting sleeve is sleeved on the outside of the limiting rod, and one side of the limiting sleeve is fixedly connected to one side of the card plate.
[0009] As a further optimization of this utility model, the vertical plate has a triangular structure and two flow guide ports are provided on the vertical plate.
[0010] As a further optimization of this utility model, the vertical plate, hook, and diversion plate are integrally formed.
[0011] As a further optimization of this utility model, a limiting block is installed on the top of the card plate, and the limiting block is used in conjunction with the card plate and the diversion plate.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: During use, this utility model can effectively intercept the dust washed down by rainwater, allowing the dust to be washed away.

[0019] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the following specific embodiments are only used to further illustrate the present application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present application. Those skilled in the art can make some non-essential improvements and adjustments to the present application based on the above application content.
[0020] like Figure 1 - Figure 5 As shown, an integrated dust and rain guiding component for photovoltaic panels includes a vertical plate 1. A flow guide plate 3, curved downwards on one side and forming an arc structure, is mounted on the top of the vertical plate 1. A groove 13 is formed on one side of the vertical plate 1, and the groove 13 is located below the flow guide plate 3. A fixing block 4 is mounted on one side of the vertical plate 1. The top of the fixing block 4 is provided with a fixing component that cooperates with the flow guide plate 3. The fixing component includes a locking plate 6 slidably connected to one side of the vertical plate 1, a movable plate 7 installed at the bottom of the locking plate 6, a cavity 10 formed within the fixing block 4, and a sliding... A sliding plate 11 is movably connected to the cavity 10. The top of the movable plate 7 extends into the cavity 10 and is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding plate 11. A spring 12 is installed at the bottom of the sliding plate 11. The bottom end of the spring 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom inner wall of the cavity 10. A limiting block 5 is installed at the top of the clamping plate 6. The limiting block 5 works in conjunction with the clamping plate 6 and the diversion plate 3. A strip groove is opened on one side of the vertical plate 1. A limiting rod 8 is installed inside the strip groove. A limiting sleeve 9 is sleeved on the outside of the limiting rod 8. One side of the limiting sleeve 9 is fixedly connected to one side of the clamping plate 6.
[0021] During use, pull down the clamping plate 6 to move it to the bottom of the frame, then place the drain plate 3 on the edge of the frame and release the clamping plate 6. At this time, under the action of the spring 12, the clamping plate 6 and the drain plate 3 will be fixed at the frame. The limiting block 5 will be located inside the frame. When the drain plate 3 is pulled outward, the limiting block 5 can limit the drain plate 3, so that the module can be better installed on the photovoltaic panel. This allows it to be fixed on frames of different thicknesses, thereby improving the versatility of the module and making it more convenient for people to use.
[0022] The downward-curving side edge of the drainage plate 3 has a wavy structure, which can better drain rainwater and dust. A hook 2 is installed at the bottom of the vertical plate 1. The hook 2 and the drainage plate 3 are located on the same side of the vertical plate 1. The vertical plate 1, the hook 2 and the drainage plate 3 are integrally formed. The hook 2 can fix the cable and limit the cable to the bottom of the photovoltaic panel, thereby reducing the contact between the cable and sunlight and improving the use of the cable.
[0023] The vertical plate 1 has a triangular structure, which reduces the contact area with the frame and reduces the possibility of silt getting stuck. The vertical plate 1 also has two drainage ports, one of which has a strip-shaped structure and the other has a triangular structure similar to the vertical plate 1. This further reduces the possibility of silt getting stuck on the contact surface between the vertical plate 1 and the frame during use.
[0024] It should be noted that this integrated dust and rain guiding component for photovoltaic panels can be fixed to the frame of the photovoltaic module during use. Since one side of the guide plate 3 is bent downward and has an arc structure, it can effectively trap the dust washed down by rainwater and allow the dust to be washed away. Since one side of the guide plate 1 has a groove 13 close to the frame and the groove 13 extends all the way to the top of the hook 2, sludge can pass through quickly in a short time without forming backflow and accumulation, and can be effectively discharged with rainwater. Regardless of whether it is heavy rain or light rain, it can effectively guide the accumulated dust and rainwater out of the photovoltaic module.
[0025] The embodiments described above are merely examples of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
