Abstract

[0002] Photovoltaic panels, also known as solar panels, are power generation devices that can directly convert solar energy into electrical energy. Because photovoltaic panels are placed outdoors, they are very easy to accumulate dust, which affects the photoelectric conversion efficiency. Therefore, photovoltaic power station staff use a photovoltaic panel cleaning robot to clean the photovoltaic panels regularly.
[0003] In existing technologies, while a photovoltaic panel cleaning robot can automatically clean dust from the surface of photovoltaic panels, thereby improving the photovoltaic conversion efficiency, it lacks the ability to handle residual moisture on the surface. Typically, a photovoltaic panel cleaning robot uses a combination of water spraying and brushes to clean dust. After dust removal, some moisture remains on the surface, requiring manual removal by workers using tools. This not only increases the workload but also reduces cleaning efficiency, thus diminishing both the effectiveness and efficiency of the photovoltaic panel cleaning robot. Utility Model Content

[0024] The processing mechanism 2 includes two air pumps 201, two bases 202, and two connecting brackets 207. Each air pump 201 has a hose 205 installed at its outlet, and each hose 205 has a one-way valve 204 installed at its outlet. A three-way pipe 203 is fixedly connected between the interiors of the two bases 202, and a connecting pipe 206 is installed at the outlet of the three-way pipe 203. A housing 208 is fixed between the two connecting brackets 207. Each air pump 201 has a filter plate 209 installed at its inlet. The outlets of the two one-way valves 204 are respectively connected to the two inlets of the three-way pipe 203, and the outlet of the connecting pipe 206 is connected to the inlet of the housing 208. The cleaning mechanism 1 includes a mobile cart 101. An electric brush assembly 102 is installed at one end of the mobile cart 101, and a connecting seat 10 is fixed to the top of the mobile cart 101. 7. An auxiliary pipe 103 is fixed to the surface of the connecting seat 107. A mounting seat 109 is fixed to the top of the mobile vehicle 101. A multi-hole bracket 104 is fixed to the surface of the electric brush assembly 102. A nozzle 105 is fixedly sleeved inside each through hole of the multi-hole bracket 104. A delivery pipe 108 is movably sleeved inside the auxiliary pipe 103. A diverter pipe 106 is installed at the water outlet end of the delivery pipe 108. The auxiliary pipe 103 is fixedly sleeved inside the mounting seat 109. Each water outlet end of the diverter pipe 106 is installed with the water inlet end of each nozzle 105. The water outlet end of the delivery pipe 108 is fixedly penetrated through the surface of the connecting seat 107. Each air pump 201 is installed on the top of the mobile vehicle 101. Each base 202 is installed on the top of the mobile vehicle 101. Two connecting brackets 207 are installed at the other end of the mobile vehicle 101.
[0025] The desired effect is as follows: when cleaning dust from the photovoltaic panel surface is required, the mobile cart 101 is first placed in a suitable position on the photovoltaic panel. Then, the outlet of the prepared water supply equipment is connected to the inlet of the delivery pipe 108. Next, two air pumps 201 are started simultaneously. At this time, both air pumps 201, in cooperation with their corresponding filter plates 209, filter the ambient air and deliver it into the corresponding hoses 205. Then, with the cooperation of two one-way valves 204, three-way pipes 203, and two bases 202, the air delivered into the two hoses 205 is discharged. Air is supplied to the inside of the connecting pipe 206, and then, with the cooperation of the two connecting brackets 207, the air supplied to the inside of the connecting pipe 206 is supplied to the inside of the housing 208. The air supplied to the inside of the housing 208 will be directly ejected from the air outlet of the housing 208. When air is ejected from the air outlet of the housing 208, the water supply equipment is started first. The water supply equipment that is started at this time will supply clean water to the inside of the supply pipe 108.

With the cooperation of the perforated frame 104 and the electric brush assembly 102, the clean water delivered to the inside of the diversion pipe 106 is delivered to the inside of each nozzle 105. Then, the clean water delivered to each nozzle 105 will spray out from the corresponding nozzle's outlet. When each nozzle 105 starts spraying clean water, the moving cart 101 and the electric brush assembly 102 are activated. The activated moving cart 101, with the cooperation of the aforementioned components, moves the air-spraying housing 208 and each water-spraying nozzle 105 together. Simultaneously, the electric brush assembly 102 is activated. With the cooperation of each water spray nozzle 105 and the activated mobile cart 101, dust cleaning operations can be performed on the surface of the photovoltaic panel. Meanwhile, the air spray housing 208, in conjunction with the activated mobile cart 101, can treat the moisture remaining on the surface of the photovoltaic panel, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency of the photovoltaic panel. When the surface of the photovoltaic panel has been cleaned, the water supply equipment and electric brush assembly 102 can be turned off directly. When all the moisture remaining on the surface of the photovoltaic panel has been treated, the mobile cart 101 and the two air pumps 201 can be turned off directly, and then the mobile cart 101 can be removed from the photovoltaic panel.
[0026] Working principle: When cleaning dust from the photovoltaic panel surface is required, first place the mobile cart 101 on the appropriate position of the photovoltaic panel. Then connect the water outlet of the prepared water supply equipment to the water inlet of the delivery pipe 108. Next, start two air pumps 201 simultaneously. At this time, both air pumps 201, in cooperation with their corresponding filter plates 209, filter the ambient air and deliver it into the corresponding hoses 205. Then, with the cooperation of two one-way valves 204, three-way pipes 203, and two bases 202, the air delivered into the two hoses 205 is discharged. Air is delivered into the connecting pipe 206, and then, with the cooperation of two connecting brackets 207, the air delivered into the connecting pipe 206 is delivered into the housing 208. The air delivered into the housing 208 will be directly ejected from the air outlet of the housing 208. When air is ejected from the air outlet of the housing 208, the water supply equipment is activated. The activated water supply equipment will deliver clean water into the delivery pipe 108. Subsequently, with the cooperation of the connecting seat 107, the clean water delivered into the delivery pipe 108 is delivered into the diversion pipe 106. Then, in the multi-... With the cooperation of the orifice holder 104 and the electric brush assembly 102, the clean water delivered to the inside of the diversion pipe 106 is delivered to the inside of each nozzle 105. Then, the clean water delivered to each nozzle 105 will spray out from the corresponding nozzle's outlet. When each nozzle 105 starts spraying clean water, the moving cart 101 and the electric brush assembly 102 are activated. The activated moving cart 101, with the cooperation of the aforementioned components, will move the air-spraying housing 208 and each water-spraying nozzle 105 together. Simultaneously, the electric brush assembly 102 is activated. With the cooperation of each water spray nozzle 105 and the activated mobile cart 101, dust cleaning operations can be performed on the surface of the photovoltaic panel. Meanwhile, the air spray housing 208, in conjunction with the activated mobile cart 101, can treat the moisture remaining on the surface of the photovoltaic panel, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency of the photovoltaic panel. When the surface of the photovoltaic panel has been cleaned, the water supply equipment and electric brush assembly 102 can be turned off directly. When all the moisture remaining on the surface of the photovoltaic panel has been treated, the mobile cart 101 and the two air pumps 201 can be turned off directly, and then the mobile cart 101 can be removed from the photovoltaic panel.
