Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic panel technology, and in particular to an integrated device for photovoltaic panel cleaning and damage detection. Background Technology

[0002] Solar power generation has become an important direction for the development of clean energy in my country. In the process of solar power generation, photovoltaic panels are an indispensable component. A photovoltaic panel module is a power generation device that generates direct current when exposed to sunlight. It is composed of thin solid photovoltaic cells made almost entirely of semiconductor materials (such as silicon).

[0003] Currently, after photovoltaic panels are manufactured, they undergo two separate quality inspection and maintenance steps: first, checking for damage to the laminated glass, and second, removing surface contaminants. These two steps are not yet integrated into a single process; instead, they are performed as two separate tasks. The photovoltaic panels must first undergo damage detection on inspection equipment before being transferred to cleaning equipment for surface treatment. This process increases operational complexity and time costs. Utility Model Content

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms according to the specific circumstances.

[0022] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, an integrated photovoltaic panel cleaning and damage detection device includes a support platform 1. A connecting frame 2 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the support platform 1. A movable component 3 is provided at the top of the inner cavity of the connecting frame 2. A connecting plate 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable component 3. An automatic scanning detection device 5 is fixedly connected to the left side of the bottom surface of the connecting plate 4. A first connecting pipe 6 is fixedly sleeved in the middle of the connecting plate 4. A nozzle 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the first connecting pipe 6. A flexible hose 8 is fixedly sleeved at the upper end of the first connecting pipe 6. A connecting device 5 is fixedly connected to the right side of the outer wall of the connecting frame 2. There is a water tank 9, and a water pump 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the water tank 9. The water inlet end of the water pump 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the water tank 9 and extends into the interior. The water outlet end of the water pump 10 is fixedly connected to a second connecting pipe 11. The end of the second connecting pipe 11 away from the water pump 10 is fixedly sleeved on the right side of the connecting frame 2 and extends into the interior. The end of the second connecting pipe 11 away from the water pump 10 is fixedly connected to the right end of the hose 8. A first cylinder 12 is fixedly connected to the right side of the bottom surface of the connecting plate 4. A cleaning brush 13 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the first cylinder 12.

[0023] To enable the automatic scanning and detection device 5, the nozzle 7, and the cleaning brush 13 to move left and right, the moving component 3 includes a screw 31. The right end face of the screw 31 is bearing-connected to the right side of the inner side of the connecting frame 2 and near the top. The left end of the screw 31 is threadedly connected to a connecting block 32. Connecting rods 33 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom surface of the connecting block 32. The bottom surfaces of the four connecting rods 33 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the connecting plate 4. A through hole is opened on the right side of the connecting frame 2. The left end of the screw 31 is bearing-connected to the through hole and extends to the outside of the left side of the connecting frame 2. A motor 34 is fixedly connected to the left side of the outer wall of the connecting frame 2. The shaft of the motor 34 is fixedly connected to the left end face of the screw 31.

[0024] In order to restrict the connecting block 32 and prevent it from rotating with the screw 31, guide rods 35 are movably sleeved on both the front and rear sides of the connecting block 32. The left and right end faces of the guide rods 35 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the inner wall of the connecting frame 2, respectively.

[0025] To facilitate the collection of water for cleaning, a water storage cavity 14 is provided at the top of the inner cavity of the support platform 1. Drainage openings 15 are provided on both the left and right sides of the top surface of the support platform 1. The drainage openings 15 are connected to the water storage cavity 14. Drainage pipes 16 are fixedly sleeved on both the left and right sides of the support platform 1. The opposing ends of the two drainage pipes 16 penetrate into the water storage cavity 14.

[0026] In order to clamp and fix the photovoltaic panel and prevent the water used for rinsing from flowing from the front of the connecting frame 2 to the ground, fixing blocks 17 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the inner wall of the connecting frame 2 near the top. The front of the two fixing blocks 17 is fixedly connected to the second cylinder 18. The front ends of the two second cylinders 18 are fixedly connected to the baffle 19. The bottom surface of the baffle 19 is in contact with the front side of the top surface of the support platform 1, and the left and right sides of the baffle 19 are in contact with the left and right sides of the inner wall of the connecting frame 2, respectively.

[0027] To increase the area of ​​water spraying, the nozzle 7 includes a hollow block 71. The lower end of the first connecting pipe 6 is fixedly connected to the middle of the top surface of the hollow block 71 and extends into the inner cavity. Several nozzles 72 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the hollow block 71. The several nozzles 72 are arranged linearly from front to back and are symmetrically inclined about the middle of the bottom of the hollow block 71.

[0028] To facilitate the operation of the electrical components on the control device, a control panel 20 is fixedly connected to the left side of the outer wall of the connecting frame 2. The control panel 20 is electrically connected to the motor 34, the first cylinder 12, the second cylinder 18, and the automatic scanning and detection device 5.

[0029] Working Principle: When using this utility model, firstly, the photovoltaic panel is placed in the middle of the top surface of the support platform 1, with the rear side of the photovoltaic panel abutting against the rear side of the inner wall of the connecting frame 2. Then, the second cylinder 18 is activated, pulling the baffle 19 backward so that the rear side of the baffle 19 abuts against the front side of the photovoltaic panel, clamping and fixing the photovoltaic panel, making it difficult for the photovoltaic panel to move on the support platform 1. Next, the motor 34 is activated, driving the screw 31 to rotate. The rotation of the screw 31 causes the connecting block 32 to move to the right. The connecting block 32 drives the connecting rod 33 to move, which in turn drives the connecting plate 4 to move. The connecting plate 4 drives the automatic scanning and detection device 5 to move to the right. During the movement, the automatic scanning and detection device 5 detects the photovoltaic panel below, checking for any damage to the laminated glass on the photovoltaic panel. If no damage is found after the detection, the motor 34 shaft reverses, causing the connecting plate 4 to move to the left. At the same time, the water pump 10 and the first cylinder 1... Driven by the 2nd pump, the water pump 10 draws water from the water tank 9 and discharges it into the nozzle 7 through the first connecting pipe 6, the hose 8, and the second connecting pipe 11. Finally, the water is sprayed onto the photovoltaic panel below through the nozzle 72. Meanwhile, the first cylinder 12 pushes the cleaning brush 13 down, so that the bottom surface of the cleaning brush 13 contacts the top surface of the photovoltaic panel. Therefore, when the connecting plate 4 moves, the nozzle 7 sprays water onto the photovoltaic panel, while the cleaning brush 13 scrapes and cleans the top surface of the photovoltaic panel, removing the dirt attached to the surface of the photovoltaic panel. In this way, the device can perform damage detection and dirt cleaning on the photovoltaic panel without having to perform two separate tasks on different devices, thereby reducing the complexity of operation and time cost. During rinsing, the baffle 19 can block the water, thereby preventing water from flowing from the front of the connecting frame 2 to the ground. The rinsing water will be discharged into the water storage chamber 14 through the drain opening 15 and discharged through the drain pipe 16.

[0030] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0031] The above embodiments only illustrate several implementation methods of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the 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 all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
