Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of solar panel adjustment technology, and in particular to an aluminum alloy solar panel automatic adjustment device. Background Technology

[0002] A solar cell is a thin film of photovoltaic semiconductors that directly generates electricity using sunlight. Also known as a "solar chip" or "photovoltaic cell," it can instantly output voltage and generate current when a circuit is established, provided it receives sufficient illumination. In physics, this is called solar photovoltaic, or simply photovoltaic. A solar cell is a device that directly converts light energy into electrical energy through the photoelectric effect or photochemical effect.

[0003] For solar panels on streetlights, their installation positions are generally fixed, making it inconvenient to adjust the orientation of the panels according to the direction of sunlight, thus preventing the panels from reaching their maximum power generation. Based on this, an aluminum alloy solar automatic adjustment device is proposed, which can automatically adjust and align the panels with the sun. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an aluminum alloy solar energy automatic adjustment device, which effectively solves the deficiencies of the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, one embodiment of this utility model provides an aluminum alloy solar automatic adjustment device, including a support rod. A mounting frame is installed on one side of the bottom surface of the support rod, and a battery and a processing module are installed inside the frame. A horizontally rotatable support frame is installed at one end of the support rod. A guide rail is installed on one side of the top surface of the horizontal support frame, and a horizontally movable sliding block is installed inside the guide rail. A push rod is installed on the top surface of the sliding block. A rotatable solar panel fixing frame is installed between the top end of the push rod and the end of the horizontal support frame, and a solar panel body is installed inside the fixing frame. A solar sensor is installed at the end of the horizontal support frame away from the guide rail, and it is electrically connected to the processing module via a wire.

[0006] Preferably, one of the above solutions is that two fixing rings are installed at one end of the support rod near the guide rail. The two fixing rings are fixedly connected to the external pole by fasteners. This solution facilitates the fixed connection of the device to external poles or light poles. At the same time, both fixing rings adopt a semi-ring structure, and the two ends are connected by fasteners, which facilitates the user's initial installation and subsequent disassembly and maintenance.

[0007] Preferably, in any of the above solutions, a first drive motor is installed on the side of the support rod away from the bottom surface of the mounting frame, and its output end is fixedly connected to the horizontal support frame. This solution facilitates the provision of a power source for the movement of the horizontal support frame. At the same time, the first drive motor is a geared motor with a worm gear reducer. The motor drives the horizontal support frame to rotate through the reduction speed of the worm gear reducer. The worm gear reducer also has a self-locking function, which facilitates the limitation of the position of the horizontal support frame.

[0008] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, the middle part of the bottom surface of the horizontal support frame is fixedly connected to one end of the support rod via a bearing. Arc-shaped rods are installed on both sides of the middle part of the horizontal support frame, with the top ends of the two arc-shaped rods completely penetrating both sides of the solar panel mounting frame. Limiting nuts are installed on the top ends of both arc-shaped rods. This design facilitates limiting the rotation angle of the solar panel mounting frame and provides support on both sides of the solar panel mounting frame, improving its resistance to crosswinds. The limiting nuts also help to block the solar panel mounting frame, limiting its position if the pins at both ends of the push rod accidentally fall off.

[0009] Preferably, in any of the above solutions, a second drive motor is installed in the middle of the top surface of the horizontal support frame, and a lead screw is installed at its output end. The lead screw is threadedly connected to the sliding block. This solution facilitates the formation of a lead screw and nut drive mechanism. When the second drive motor is energized, it drives the lead screw and the sliding block to rotate relative to each other, driving the sliding block to slide along the inside of the guide rail. In turn, the push rod drives the solar panel fixing frame to rotate, thereby adjusting and controlling the pitch angle of the solar panel body.

[0010] Preferably, in any of the above solutions, the processing module integrates a microcontroller, RAM, and storage. The processing module is electrically connected to the first drive motor and the second drive motor. In this solution, the processing module also integrates a rectifier circuit and an inverter circuit, which respectively invert and rectify the DC power generated by the solar panel. The inverter circuit is electrically connected to the battery via wires, charging the battery on one hand and providing drive voltage to the relevant components on the processing module on the other hand, so that the microcontroller, RAM, and storage on the processing module can operate. The storage stores the relevant control software, which is used to control the movement and send control signals to the first drive motor and the second drive motor to make them rotate.

[0011] This utility model has the following advantages:

[0012] 1. This aluminum alloy solar automatic adjustment device, with its support frame and two fixing rings, facilitates installation on an external utility pole. A processing module is electrically connected to a solar sensor, a first drive motor, and a second drive motor. The solar sensor detects sunlight and sends control signals to the processing module. Through microcontroller processing, the first and second drive motors are powered on and operated, automatically controlling the orientation and pitch angle of the solar panel. The overall structure is simple, rationally designed, and meets usage requirements.

[0013] 2. This aluminum alloy solar automatic adjustment device, by setting up a horizontal support frame, whose bottom surface is rotatably connected to one end of the support rod through a bearing, thereby reducing the resistance during rotation. By setting up two arc-shaped rods, the top ends of the two arc-shaped rods completely penetrate through both sides of the solar panel fixing frame, and the top ends of the two arc-shaped rods are equipped with limit nuts, thereby facilitating the control of the rotation angle of the solar panel body and improving its resistance to crosswinds.

[0031] 5) The second drive motor 13 drives the lead screw 15 and the sliding block 16 to rotate relative to each other, driving the sliding block 16 to move horizontally inside the guide rail 6, and driving the battery panel body 10 to adjust the pitch at a certain angle through the push rod 8.

[0032] In summary, when used by the user, the support frame 1 and two fixing rings 5 ​​are set up to facilitate the installation on an external utility pole.
