[0002] The rain measuring radar tower is a building for installing the rain measuring radar. In order to realize the rain measurement, the radar motor and the radar station need power supply, wherein the radar motor is very small and needs several hundred to several thousand watts, and the radar station as a whole needs more power supply, so it is best to use natural resources such as solar energy to generate electricity in order to save energy.
[0003] At present, the main ways of setting solar panels on the tower are as follows: one is to set an extension frame at any height or top of the tower, and set multiple solar panels on the extension frame; the other is to fix multiple inclined solar panels outside the tower. Although the above methods can realize solar power generation, the solar panels on the tower are easily damaged and need frequent maintenance due to the influence of wind, and have a great impact on the stability of the tower. SUMMARY

[0005] The utility model adopts the technical scheme of:
[0006] A rain measuring radar tower with photovoltaic structure, comprising an inner tower and an outer tower, multiple platforms are arranged between the inner tower and the outer tower along the height direction, a ladder is arranged outside the periphery of the inner tower and passes through the platforms, the outer periphery of the corresponding outer tower of each platform is provided with multiple groups of photovoltaic structures, each group of photovoltaic structures comprises a photovoltaic frame, a fixed frame fixedly connected with the outer tower, and an extension cylinder arranged on the platform.
[0007] The upper part of the fixed frame is provided with a connecting shaft, the front surface of the photovoltaic frame is provided with a photovoltaic panel, the back surface of the photovoltaic frame is hingedly connected with the connecting shaft at the upper part and is provided with an adjusting vertical rod at the lower part, and the output end of the extension cylinder is hingedly connected with the adjusting vertical rod, so that the photovoltaic frame can be angularly adjusted with the connecting shaft as the rotation shaft when the extension cylinder is driven.
[0008] The top of the inner tower and the outer tower is provided with a radar platform, a wind speed sensor is arranged on the radar platform, and the wind speed sensor and the extension cylinder are connected with a controller, so that the extension cylinder can be angularly adjusted through the wind speed.
[0009] Furthermore, the fixing frame includes two round rods, and a fixing rod is connected to the rear side of the two round rods. The fixing rod is fixed to the outer tower through a connecting fastener. A connecting ring is provided at the upper end of the two round rods. A hinge block is provided at the rear of the photovoltaic frame. The two ends of the connecting shaft after passing through the connecting ring and the hinge block are fixed by a cap.
[0010] Furthermore, the front sides of the two round rods form snap-fit protrusions, and the back of the photovoltaic frame is provided with snap-fit blocks. The snap-fit blocks are provided with snap-fit grooves that cooperate with the snap-fit protrusions, so that the snap-fit blocks are snapped onto the round rods after the telescopic cylinder is fully retracted.
[0011] Furthermore, each end of the connecting shaft is provided with a threaded section, and the cap is threadedly engaged with the threaded section.
[0012] Furthermore, the cross-section of the outer tower is a regular polygon, and the photovoltaic structure is located on each side of the outer tower.

[0014] Specifically, during windy weather, the wind speed sensor will measure a large wind speed. When this data exceeds the standard set wind speed, the telescopic cylinder retracts, bringing the solar panel as close as possible to the outer tower, thus reducing the impact of wind on the tower's stability. When the wind speed decreases, the telescopic cylinder extends, causing the solar panel to tilt outward to absorb more solar energy and convert it into energy, achieving higher power generation efficiency.

When the wind force becomes small, the wind speed sensor 7 measures that the wind speed is less than the lower limit standard value, the controller will control the retracting cylinder 53 to extend, so that the photovoltaic panel can be lighted at an inclined angle, and high power generation efficiency can be ensured. The above structure can achieve a good balance between power generation efficiency and stability.
