Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of solar panel technology, specifically to a solar panel cleaning device for solar power plants. Background Technology
[0002] A solar power station is a device that uses solar cell modules to convert light energy into electrical energy. Solar power stations are mainly divided into two categories: stand-alone solar photovoltaic power stations and grid-connected solar photovoltaic power stations. The solar panels used in a solar power station are formed by connecting multiple solar cell modules in series or in parallel. They are used to convert sunlight into electrical energy. The working principle of solar panels is based on the photoelectric effect. When sunlight shines on a solar panel, the semiconductor material in the panel absorbs photon energy, excites electrons, and thus generates an electric current.
[0003] While existing cleaning devices offer numerous advantages during use, they still suffer from several drawbacks. Their adaptability to the size of solar panels is insufficient. Since solar panels in power plants are typically deployed one by one in close proximity, existing cleaning devices cannot accommodate the overall width of the solar panels after deployment. This necessitates the use of multiple cleaning devices combined, resulting in higher operating costs. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the problems in the existing technology, this utility model provides a solar panel cleaning device for solar power plants.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is a solar panel cleaning device for a solar power station, including a frame, a support plate and a rotating shaft. The support plate is provided on both outer walls of the frame. A screw is rotatably installed on one side of the inner wall of the support plate. A slide rail is provided on the lower side of the inner wall of the support plate. A movable block is threaded to the outer side of the screw. A support block is welded to one side of the upper outer wall of the movable block. A rotating shaft is rotatably installed inside the support block. A connecting shaft is provided on the outer wall of one end of the rotating shaft, with equidistant parallel connecting shafts. A fitting block is welded to the outer wall of one end of the connecting shaft. A fitting groove is opened on the outer wall of the connecting shaft opposite to the fitting block. A rectangular array of brackets is installed on the lower outer wall of the frame.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the frame can fix the position of the solar panel body and the support plate, keeping the position of the solar panel body and the support plate stable. The screw passes through one end of the support plate and is equipped with a drive motor. The drive motor can drive the screw to rotate in a circle, thereby causing the movable block to move horizontally. The support block keeps the position of the rotating shaft stable. The connecting shaft can connect the two rotating shafts, so that the connecting shaft can rotate with the rotating shaft. By adjusting the amount of the connecting shaft, the width of the solar panel body can be adapted. The fitting block and the fitting groove ensure that the connecting shaft and the rotating shaft are connected.
[0007] Specifically, a rectangular array of fixing blocks is installed on the lower outer wall of the support plate. The fixing blocks are located outside the frame, and screws are installed inside the fixing blocks. The fixing blocks are connected to the frame by the screws.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the design of screws and fixing blocks not only enhances the stability and firmness of the support plate, but also facilitates installation and disassembly.
[0009] Specifically, a slider is installed on the lower outer wall of the movable block, and the slider is slidably installed inside the slide rail.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the slider enables the movable block to move smoothly along the slide rail, thereby driving the connecting shaft and brush to move on the surface of the solar panel body, achieving uniform cleaning. At the same time, the cooperation between the slider and the slide rail also reduces the friction and resistance when the movable block moves, improving the cleaning efficiency.
[0011] Specifically, a servo motor is provided through one end of the outer wall of the support block, and the servo motor is connected to the outer wall of the support block.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the servo motor drives the brush, rotating shaft and connecting shaft to rotate, which not only improves the cleaning efficiency, but also makes the cleaning more uniform and thorough. The use of the servo motor also makes it easier to control the cleaning speed and cleaning intensity, so as to adapt to different stains and different cleaning needs.
[0013] Specifically, a solar panel body is installed inside the frame. The solar panel body is located at the lower end of the connecting shaft. A circular array of brushes is installed on the outer wall of the connecting shaft, and the brushes are in contact with the outer wall of the solar panel body.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the solar panel body can be installed through the frame, and the overall layout size of the solar panel body can be adjusted according to the size of the frame. The brush can directly clean the surface of the solar panel body, remove stains and dust, and improve the power generation efficiency of the solar panel body. At the same time, the brushes distributed in a circular array can ensure the uniformity and comprehensiveness of cleaning.
[0015] Specifically, the size of the fitting block is smaller than the size of the fitting groove, and the fitting block is located inside the fitting groove.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, this design allows adjacent connecting shafts to interlock, forming a unified cleaning structure. This design not only improves the stability and robustness of the device but also facilitates the installation and disassembly of the connecting shafts for maintenance and replacement.
[0017] Specifically, both the fitting block and the fitting groove have through holes, and bolts are installed inside the through holes.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, bolts can further fix adjacent connecting shafts, preventing them from loosening or falling off during the cleaning process. At the same time, the bolt connection method also facilitates the disassembly and replacement of connecting shafts, improving the flexibility and maintainability of the device. In addition, bolt connection can also be used as a tool to adjust the overall length of the connecting shaft to adapt to solar panel bodies of different sizes and shapes.
[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0020] (1) The solar panel cleaning device for a solar power station described in this utility model allows the operator to increase or decrease the number of connecting shafts so that the overall length of the connecting shafts can adapt to the width of the solar panel body after it is laid out, thereby improving the adaptability of the equipment, avoiding the need for multiple cleaning devices to be combined, and reducing the cost of using the equipment.
[0021] (2) The solar panel cleaning device for solar power stations described in this utility model has a servo motor driving the connecting shaft and the brush to rotate. The brush can clean the outer wall of the solar panel body, maintain the relative cleanliness of the outer wall of the solar panel body, and ensure the uniformity of sunlight reception by the solar panel body.

[0028] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0029] To save manpower and improve efficiency, as one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the solar panel cleaning device for a solar power station according to this utility model includes a frame 1, a support plate 2, and a rotating shaft 3. The support plate 2 is provided on both outer walls of the frame 1. A screw 23 is rotatably installed on one side of the inner wall of the support plate 2. A slide rail 22 is provided on the lower side of the inner wall of the support plate 2. A movable block 24 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the screw 23. A support block 25 is welded to one side of the upper outer wall of the movable block 24. A rotating shaft 3 is rotatably installed inside the support block 25. A connecting shaft 32 is provided on the outer wall of one end of the rotating shaft 3, which is equidistantly parallel. A fitting block 34 is welded to the outer wall of one end of the connecting shaft 32. A fitting groove 35 is opened on the outer wall of the end of the connecting shaft 32 opposite to the fitting block 34. A bracket 11 distributed in a rectangular array is installed on the lower outer wall of the frame 1.
[0030] In use, the frame 1 can fix the position of the solar panel body 12 and the support plate 2, keeping the position of the solar panel body 12 and the support plate 2 stable. The screw 23 passes through one end of the support plate 2 and is equipped with a drive motor. The drive motor can drive the screw 23 to rotate in a circle, thereby causing the movable block 24 to move horizontally. The support block 25 keeps the position of the rotating shaft 3 stable. The connecting shaft 32 can connect the two rotating shafts 3, so that the connecting shaft 32 can rotate with the rotating shaft 3. By adjusting the amount of the connecting shaft 32, the width of the solar panel body 12 can be adapted. The fitting block 34 and the fitting groove 35 ensure that the connecting shaft 32 and the rotating shaft 3 are connected.
[0031] To fix the usage location, for example, such as Figure 3 As shown, a rectangular array of fixing blocks 21 are installed on the lower outer wall of the support plate 2. The fixing blocks 21 are located outside the frame 1. Screws are installed inside the fixing blocks 21, and the fixing blocks 21 are connected to the frame 1 by the screws.
[0032] In use, the design of screws and fixing blocks 21 not only enhances the stability and firmness of the support plate 2, but also facilitates installation and disassembly.
[0033] To maintain the movement trajectory, for example, such as Figure 3 As shown, a slider is installed on the lower outer wall of the movable block 24, and the slider is slidably installed inside the slide rail 22.
[0034] In use, the slider allows the movable block 24 to move smoothly along the slide rail 22, thereby driving the connecting shaft 32 and the brush 33 to move on the surface of the solar panel body 12 to achieve uniform cleaning. At the same time, the cooperation between the slider and the slide rail 22 also reduces the friction and resistance when the movable block 24 moves, thus improving the cleaning efficiency.
[0035] To drive rotation, for example, such as Figure 3 As shown, a servo motor 31 is provided on one end of the outer wall of the support block 25 through the rotating shaft 3, and the servo motor 31 is connected to the outer wall of the support block 25.
[0036] During use, the servo motor 31 drives the brush 33, the rotating shaft 3, and the connecting shaft 32 to rotate, which not only improves the cleaning efficiency but also makes the cleaning more uniform and thorough. The use of the servo motor 31 also makes it easy to control the cleaning speed and cleaning intensity, thereby adapting to different stains and different cleaning needs.
[0037] For cleaning purposes, exemplified, such as Figure 2 As shown, a solar panel body 12 is installed inside the frame 1. The solar panel body 12 is located at the lower end of the connecting shaft 32. A circular array of brushes 33 is installed on the outer wall of the connecting shaft 32, and the brushes 33 are in contact with the outer wall of the solar panel body 12.
[0038] In use, the solar panel body 12 can be installed through the frame 1, and the overall layout size of the solar panel body 12 can be adjusted according to the size of the frame 1. The brush 33 can directly clean the surface of the solar panel body 12, remove stains and dust, and improve the power generation efficiency of the solar panel body 12. At the same time, the circular array of brushes 33 can ensure the uniformity and comprehensiveness of cleaning. In order to achieve cleaning, the brushes 33 can be used in the state of water spraying by the matching water spraying mechanism.
[0039] For assembly, exemplarily, such as Figure 4 As shown, the size of the mating block 34 is smaller than the size of the mating groove 35, and the mating block 34 is located inside the mating groove 35.
[0040] In use, this design allows adjacent connecting shafts 32 to interlock, forming a unified cleaning structure. This design not only improves the stability and robustness of the device but also facilitates the installation and removal of the connecting shafts 32 for maintenance and replacement.
[0041] For assembly, exemplarily, such as Figure 4 As shown, both the fitting block 34 and the fitting groove 35 have through holes, and bolts 36 are installed inside the through holes.
[0042] When in use, the bolts 36 can further secure the adjacent connecting shafts 32 to prevent loosening or falling off during cleaning. At the same time, the bolt connection method of 36 also facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the connecting shafts 32, improving the flexibility and maintainability of the device. In addition, the bolt connection of 36 can also be used as a tool to adjust the overall length of the connecting shafts 32 to accommodate solar panel bodies 12 of different sizes and shapes.
[0043] In use, the solar panel body 12 is installed inside the frame 1. The size of the frame 1 and the actual size of the solar panel body 12 are adjusted to ensure that the solar panel body 12 is stable and correctly positioned. Fixing blocks 21 distributed in a rectangular array are installed on the lower outer wall of the support plate 2, and screws are used to connect the fixing blocks 21 to the frame 1. The operator assembles the connecting shaft 32 using bolts 36, fitting blocks 34 and fitting grooves 35 to ensure that the overall length of the connecting shaft 32 is compatible with the width of the solar panel body 12.
[0044] The drive motor drives the screw 23 to rotate in a circular motion, thereby causing the movable block 24 to move horizontally along the slide rail 22. The servo motor 31 is powered on, and the servo motor 31 drives the rotating shaft 3 and the connecting shaft 32 to rotate, which in turn drives the brush 33 to rotate. According to the degree of dirt on the surface of the solar panel body 12 and the cleaning requirements, the cleaning speed and cleaning intensity are controlled by adjusting the speed of the servo motor 31. While the movable block 24 moves along the slide rail 22, the connecting shaft 32 and the brush 33 rotate under the drive of the servo motor 31 to clean the surface of the solar panel body 12 evenly.
