Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of solar collector technology, specifically relating to a circulating solar collector. Background Technology
[0002] A solar collector is a device that converts solar radiation energy into heat energy. It is a key component of a solar thermal utilization system. It absorbs solar radiation and generates heat energy, which is then transferred to a heat transfer medium. According to type, it can be divided into flat plate collectors, evacuated tube collectors, etc. It is widely used in solar water heaters, solar power plants and other fields. Solar collectors have the advantages of environmental protection and energy saving, and are of great significance to promoting the utilization of renewable energy.
[0003] When using a circulating solar collector to heat water, the water source is sent to the storage tank through pipes. Sunlight shines on the collector pipes, heating the volatile liquid inside the pipes. The volatile liquid vaporizes and enters the storage tank. The volatile gas comes into contact with the water source and heats it. After the water source absorbs the heat, the volatile gas condenses and returns to a liquid state, returning to the collector pipes. The sunlight continues to heat the water source inside the storage tank in a circulating manner. However, the existing storage tanks lack an agitation structure, resulting in uneven heating of the water source inside. To address the above problems, a new circulating solar collector is proposed.

[0025] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0027] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments. The present invention provides the following embodiments.
[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4This is a schematic diagram of the circulating solar collector structure in this embodiment. The circulating solar collector in this embodiment includes: an assembly frame 1, a collector body 2, a lower cylindrical shell 3, and an upper cylindrical shell 4. The assembly frame 1 is an inclined support structure. The collector body 2 is installed equidistantly on the assembly frame 1. The lower cylindrical shell 3 is installed at the top of the collector body 2. The upper cylindrical shell 4 is installed on the upper surface of the lower cylindrical shell 3. Pipes connect both sides of the upper cylindrical shell 4. The lower cylindrical shell 3 and the upper cylindrical shell 4 form a water-filled cylinder. A reciprocating agitation mechanism 5 for stirring the water source is installed inside the upper cylindrical shell 4. The reciprocating agitation mechanism 5 includes a reciprocating seat 51, a reciprocating screw 52, a drive motor 53, a movable block 54, an agitating impeller 55, and a rack 56. Symmetrical agitation impellers are installed on the inner wall of the upper cylindrical shell 4. The reciprocating seat 51 has a reciprocating screw 52 rotatably mounted on it. The upper cylindrical shell 4 has a drive motor 53 mounted on it, and the output shaft of the drive motor 53 passes through the interior of the upper cylindrical shell 4. One side of the reciprocating screw 52 is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 53 through a bevel gear. The reciprocating screw 52 is connected to a movable block 54, and an agitator impeller 55 is rotatably mounted on the movable block 54. A rack 56 is mounted on the lower surface of the reciprocating seat 51, and a flat gear is mounted on the top of the agitator impeller 55. The rack 56 is connected to the flat gear of the agitator impeller 55 through a meshing connection. The reciprocating agitation mechanism 5 also includes a guide hole 57 and a guide rod 58.

The fastening bolt 66 is rotated in the opposite direction to facilitate moving the lead screw bracket 65 away from the U-shaped groove of the first connecting seat 63, moving the upper cylindrical shell 4 away from the lower cylindrical shell 3, separating the positioning block 62 and the positioning seat 61, and cleaning the inside of the lower cylindrical shell 3 and the upper cylindrical shell 4.
[0032] like Figure 6 As shown, an angle adjustment mechanism 7 for adjusting the angle is installed below the assembly frame 1. The angle adjustment mechanism 7 includes an angle adjustment table 71, a rotating seat 72, and a rotating frame 73. An angle adjustment table 71 is provided below the assembly frame 1.

A support seat 74 is symmetrically installed on the upper surface of the angle adjustment table 71. An electric push rod 75 is installed on the support seat 74. A pulley 76 is installed on the moving end of the electric push rod 75, and the pulley 76 is in contact with the lower surface of the assembly frame 1.
[0033] In this embodiment, the electric push rod 75 on the support base 74 is activated. The moving end of the electric push rod 75 extends, causing the pulley 76 to contact the lower surface of the assembly frame 1. The rotating seat 72 rotates inside the rotating frame 73, which facilitates the adjustment of the elevation angle of the assembly frame 1. The elevation angle of the assembly frame 1 is adjusted according to the position of sunlight.
[0034] like Figure 7As shown, the main body 2 of the collector consists of a vacuum glass tube 21, a heat absorber plate 22, a heat transfer tube 23, and a heating part 24.

[0035] In this embodiment, sunlight passes through the vacuum glass tube 21 and shines on the heat absorber plate 22. The heat absorber plate 22 absorbs the sunlight and heats up, vaporizing the volatile liquid inside the heat transfer tube 23. The heated volatile gas enters the heating part 24. The water source contacts the heating part 24 to heat up. At the same time, the volatile gas condenses back into liquid and returns to the inside of the heat transfer tube 23.
