Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of housing structure technology, and in particular to a container house. Background Technology

[0002] A shipping container is a large cargo container with a certain strength, rigidity, and specifications, designed for repeated use. Its main purpose is to allow goods to be transferred and changed to other modes of transportation without having to remove the goods inside. Container houses, also called container mobile homes or container residences, are mainly houses with windows and doors made from shipping containers as the base material and then slightly modified. Container houses are widely used due to their advantages such as low cost, durability, and ease of construction. The power supply for container houses is mostly external. When used in more remote areas, wiring is cumbersome and costly. To solve the power problem of container houses, most of them use solar photovoltaic panels to meet the power demand. However, the installation, wiring, and installation of solar photovoltaic panels are also relatively complex. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, the purpose of this invention is to design a container house that integrates photovoltaic modules, thereby reducing the complexity of container house installation.

[0004] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] A container house includes a container body, a first photovoltaic module disposed on the top of the container body, two sets of second photovoltaic modules, and a drive assembly disposed on one side of the container body along its length. The container body has an accommodating space, and the two sets of second photovoltaic modules are disposed within the accommodating space. The drive assembly includes two sets of traction units respectively connected to the same side of the two sets of second photovoltaic modules, and a drive unit. The drive unit can drive the two sets of traction units to move synchronously so that the two sets of second photovoltaic modules can be synchronously extended outward or retracted inward along both sides of the width direction of the container body.

[0006] In this design, a first and second photovoltaic (PV) module are mounted on the container body. An energy storage battery is also installed inside the container. The first and second PV modules are connected to the energy storage battery via a controller and cables. The first and second PV modules convert solar energy into direct current (DC). The controller regulates the charging voltage and current of the first and second PV modules to the energy storage battery, thereby charging the battery, which then supplies power to the electrical equipment. The first PV module is installed on top of the container body, which has a storage space containing two sets of second PV modules. The height of the storage space is designed according to the space requirements of the second PV modules. During use, a drive mechanism extends the two sets of second PV modules outwards, increasing the power generation area. When the container house needs to be moved, the drive mechanism retracts the two sets of second PV modules inwards, facilitating storage and transportation and preventing damage from impacts. Through this integrated design, no professional installers are needed to install the PV modules during container house installation, reducing construction difficulty and saving construction time. Simultaneously, the design of two sets of second PV modules, which extend outwards to expand the power generation area, increases the power generation capacity.

[0007] Furthermore, the traction unit includes a first traction rope, a second traction rope, a first reversing wheel assembly and a second reversing wheel assembly rotatably disposed on the side of the container body along its length, and a take-up reel. One end of the first traction rope is connected to the second photovoltaic module, and the other end passes through the first reversing wheel assembly and is connected to the take-up reel. One end of the second traction rope is connected to the second photovoltaic module, and the other end passes through the second reversing wheel assembly and is connected to the take-up reel. The drive unit is drivenly connected to the take-up reel.

[0008] The deployment and retraction of the second photovoltaic module are accomplished through the cooperation of a first traction rope and a second traction rope. The first and second traction ropes are wound in opposite directions on the winding reel; that is, when the winding reel rotates to wind the first traction rope, it releases the second traction rope, and vice versa. When the drive unit drives the winding reel to rotate clockwise to wind the first traction rope, the first traction rope pulls the second photovoltaic module outward to deploy, and the second traction rope unwinds simultaneously. When the drive unit drives the winding reel to rotate counterclockwise to wind the second traction rope, the second traction rope pulls the second photovoltaic module inward to retract, and the first traction rope unwinds simultaneously. In addition, a first reversing wheel group and a second reversing wheel group are installed on the side of the container body along its length. Both the first and second reversing wheel groups are composed of several pulleys, which can change the arrangement path of the first and second traction ropes to adapt to installation requirements.

[0009] Furthermore, the two winding wheels of the two sets of traction units are connected by a transmission belt, and the drive unit is driven by one of the winding wheels.

[0010] The two winding wheels are connected by a drive belt, so that one drive unit can drive the two winding wheels to rotate synchronously. This allows for synchronous control of the two sets of second photovoltaic modules to expand outward or retract inward. This not only reduces the size of the equipment and eliminates the need for multiple independent motors, but also improves operational efficiency through synchronous winding and unwinding.

[0011] Furthermore, the take-up reel includes a first take-up groove, a second take-up groove, and a transmission groove corresponding to the first traction rope, the second traction rope, and the transmission belt.

[0012] By using an axially grooved design, namely setting a first winding groove and a second winding groove, interference between the first traction rope and the second traction rope is avoided. At the same time, the first winding groove and the first reversing wheel assembly are located on the same plane, and the second winding groove and the second reversing wheel assembly are located on the same plane. This avoids wear caused by the first traction rope tilting and rubbing against the side walls of the first winding groove and the first reversing wheel assembly, and wear caused by the second traction rope tilting and rubbing against the side walls of the second winding groove and the second reversing wheel assembly, thereby improving the service life of the first traction rope and the second traction rope.

[0013] Furthermore, the container body has a traction hole on its side along the length direction that connects to the accommodating space and corresponds to the two sets of second photovoltaic modules. The traction hole extends along the width direction of the container body. The second photovoltaic module includes a traction block extending out of the traction hole. The first traction rope and the second traction rope are respectively connected to both sides of the traction block along the width direction.

[0014] The towing hole extends along the width of the container body and connects with the accommodating space. The towing block extends out of the towing hole and connects with the external towing rope, thus avoiding interference between the towing rope part set in the accommodating space and other functional areas (such as energy storage equipment or cable passages).

[0015] Furthermore, the ends of the first and second traction ropes connected to the traction block are respectively provided with fasteners, and the traction block has threaded holes corresponding to the two fasteners.

[0016] The threaded connection between the threaded hole and the fastener's threaded engagement forms a rigid, fixed structure capable of withstanding high-frequency tensile stress under dynamic loads. Compared to traditional knots or clips, threaded connections reduce stress concentration and prevent rope end unraveling or slippage. The fasteners feature a detachable design, allowing for component replacement without cutting the traction rope. For example, when one side of the traction rope wears, simply loosening the corresponding fastener allows for disassembly and repair.

[0017] Furthermore, the traction hole is provided with an elastic buffer structure.

[0018] The elastic buffer structure consists of a blocking block and a spring, which is installed on the side wall of the traction hole. When the traction block moves to the end of the traction hole, it can effectively absorb the instantaneous impact load generated when the traction block moves, reducing the impact on the container and photovoltaic modules.

[0019] Furthermore, the second photovoltaic module includes a mounting frame for mounting the photovoltaic panel, and the mounting frame is provided with sliding guide rails on both sides along its length. The mounting frame is connected to the side wall of the accommodating space through the two sliding guide rails.

[0020] Dual sliding guide rails are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the mounting frame, forming a stable dual-rail support system. The connection points between the sliding guide rails and the side walls of the accommodating space are rigidly fixed, which can effectively suppress vibration and displacement of the second photovoltaic module during operation. At the same time, the sliding guide rails ensure the stability of the second photovoltaic module during movement, preventing wiring detachment and subsequent circuit failures caused by vibration.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0022] In this design, a first and second photovoltaic (PV) module are mounted on the container body. An energy storage battery is also installed inside the container. The first and second PV modules are connected to the energy storage battery via a controller and cables. The first and second PV modules convert solar energy into direct current (DC). The controller regulates the charging voltage and current of the first and second PV modules to the energy storage battery, thereby charging the battery, which then supplies power to the electrical equipment. The first PV module is installed on top of the container body, which has a storage space containing two sets of second PV modules. The height of the storage space is designed according to the space requirements of the second PV modules. During use, a drive mechanism extends the two sets of second PV modules outwards, increasing the power generation area. When the container house needs to be moved, the drive mechanism retracts the two sets of second PV modules inwards, facilitating storage and transportation and preventing damage from impacts. Through this integrated design, no professional installers are needed to install the PV modules during container house installation, reducing construction difficulty and saving construction time. Simultaneously, the design of two sets of second PV modules, which extend outwards to expand the power generation area, increases the power generation capacity. Attached Figure Description

[0027] To facilitate understanding of this invention, a more comprehensive description will be provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The drawings illustrate preferred embodiments of the invention. However, this invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a container house, including a container body 1, a first photovoltaic module 2 installed on the top of the container body 1, and two sets of second photovoltaic modules 3. The container body 1 has an accommodating space 11, and the two sets of second photovoltaic modules 3 are installed in the accommodating space 11. The second photovoltaic module 3 includes a mounting frame 31 for installing photovoltaic panels. Sliding guide rails 33 are provided on both sides of the mounting frame 31 along its length. The mounting frame 31 is connected to the side wall of the accommodating space 11 through the two sliding guide rails 33. The two sliding guide rails 33 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the mounting frame 31, forming a stable double-rail support system. The sliding guide rails 33 enable the second photovoltaic modules 3 to move smoothly out of or into the accommodating space 11. The connection points between the sliding guide rails 33 and the side wall of the accommodating space 11 are rigidly fixed, which can effectively suppress the vibration and displacement of the second photovoltaic modules 3 during operation. At the same time, the sliding guide rails 33 can ensure the stability of the second photovoltaic modules 3 during movement, avoiding wiring failure caused by vibration. A traction hole 12 is provided on the side of the container body 1 along its length, connecting to the accommodating space 11 and corresponding to the two sets of second photovoltaic modules 3. The traction hole 12 extends along the width direction of the container body 1. The second photovoltaic module 3 includes a traction block 32 extending out of the traction hole 12. A drive component 4 is provided on one side of the container body 1 along its length. By pulling the traction block 32, the two sets of second photovoltaic modules 3 can be simultaneously extended outward or retracted inward along both sides of the width direction of the container body 1. An elastic buffer structure 13 is provided inside the traction hole 12. The elastic buffer structure 13 consists of a blocking block and a spring and is installed on the side wall of the traction hole 12. When the traction block 32 moves to the end of the traction hole 12, it can effectively absorb the instantaneous impact load generated when the traction block 32 moves, reducing the impact on the container and the photovoltaic modules.

[0029] In this embodiment, a first photovoltaic module 2 and a second photovoltaic module 3 are mounted on the container body 1. An energy storage battery is also installed inside the container body 1. The first photovoltaic module 2 and the second photovoltaic module 3 are connected to the energy storage battery via a controller and cables. The first photovoltaic module 2 and the second photovoltaic module 3 convert solar energy into direct current. The controller adjusts the charging voltage and current of the first photovoltaic module 2 and the second photovoltaic module 3 to the energy storage battery, thereby charging the energy storage battery, which then supplies power to the electrical equipment. The first photovoltaic module 2 is installed on the top of the container body 1. The container body 1 has a storage space 11, within which two sets of second photovoltaic modules 3 are installed. The height of the storage space 11 is designed according to the space requirements of the second photovoltaic modules 3. During use, the two sets of second photovoltaic modules 3 are extended outwards via a drive component 4 to increase the power generation area. When the container house needs to be moved or transported, the two sets of second photovoltaic modules 3 are retracted inwards via the drive component 4, facilitating storage and transportation and preventing damage from bumps and knocks. Through the above integrated design, no professional personnel are needed to install the photovoltaic modules when installing the container house, which reduces the construction difficulty and saves construction time; at the same time, two sets of second photovoltaic modules 3 are designed to expand the power generation area by extending outward, thereby improving the power generation capacity.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the drive assembly 4 includes two sets of traction units 41 connected to the same side of the two sets of second photovoltaic modules 3, and a drive unit 42. The drive unit 42 drives the two sets of traction units 41 to move synchronously, causing the two sets of second photovoltaic modules 3 to expand outward or retract inward synchronously along both sides of the width direction of the container body 1. Specifically, the traction unit 41 includes a first traction rope 411, a second traction rope 412, a first reversing wheel set 413 and a second reversing wheel set 414 rotatably disposed on the side of the container body 1 along its length direction, and a take-up reel 415. One end of the first traction rope 411 is connected to the traction block 32 of the second photovoltaic module 3, and the other end passes through the first reversing wheel set 413 and connects to the take-up reel 415. One end of the second traction rope 412 is connected to the traction block 32 of the second photovoltaic module 3, and the other end passes through the second reversing wheel set 414 and connects to the take-up reel 415. The first traction rope 411 and the second traction rope 412 are respectively connected to both sides of the traction block 32 along its width direction. The unfolding and retraction of the second photovoltaic module 3 are accomplished by the cooperation of the first traction rope 411 and the second traction rope 412. The first traction rope 411 and the second traction rope 412 are wound in opposite directions on the winding wheel 415. That is, when the winding wheel 415 rotates to wind the first traction rope 411, it releases the second traction rope 412, and when the winding wheel 415 rotates to wind the second traction rope 412, it releases the first traction rope 411. When the drive unit 42 drives the take-up reel 415 to rotate clockwise to wind the first traction rope 411, the first traction rope 411 pulls the second photovoltaic module 3 outward to unfold, and the second traction rope 412 unwinds simultaneously. When the drive unit 42 drives the take-up reel 415 to rotate counterclockwise to wind the second traction rope 412, the second traction rope 412 pulls the second photovoltaic module 3 inward to retract, and the first traction rope 411 unwinds simultaneously. In addition, a first reversing wheel set 413 and a second reversing wheel set 414 are provided on the side of the container body 1 along its length. Both the first reversing wheel set 413 and the second reversing wheel set 414 are composed of several pulleys, which can change the arrangement path of the first traction rope 411 and the second traction rope 412 to adapt to the installation arrangement requirements.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the winding reel 415 includes a first winding groove 4151, a second winding groove 4152, and a transmission groove 4153 corresponding to the first traction rope 411 and the second traction rope 412. The two winding reels 415 of the two sets of traction units 41 are connected by a transmission belt 416, which is engaged in the transmission groove 4153 of the two winding reels 415. The drive unit 42 adopts a drive motor with a reducer, and the output end of the drive motor is connected to one of the winding reels 415. The two winding reels 415 are connected by the transmission belt 416, so that one drive unit 42 can synchronously drive the two winding reels 415 to rotate, thereby controlling the two sets of second photovoltaic modules 3 to synchronously unfold outward or retract inward. This not only reduces the size of the equipment, such as eliminating the need for multiple independent motors, but also improves the operating efficiency through synchronous winding and unwinding. The take-up reel 415 features an axially grooved design, specifically a first take-up groove 4151 and a second take-up groove 4152. This design prevents interference between the first traction rope 411 and the second traction rope 412. Furthermore, the first take-up groove 4151 and the first reversing wheel assembly 413 are located on the same plane, as are the second take-up groove 4152 and the second reversing wheel assembly 414. This design also prevents wear caused by the first traction rope 411 rubbing against the sidewalls of the first take-up groove 4151 and the first reversing wheel assembly 413, and by the second traction rope 412 rubbing against the sidewalls of the second take-up groove 4152 and the second reversing wheel assembly 414. This design improves the service life of both the first traction rope 411 and the second traction rope 412.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the ends of the first traction rope 411 and the second traction rope 412 connected to the traction block 32 are respectively provided with fasteners 417, and the traction block 32 has threaded holes 321 corresponding to the two fasteners 417. Through the threaded engagement of the threaded holes 321 and the fasteners 417, a rigid fixing structure is formed, which can withstand high-frequency tension under dynamic loads. Compared with traditional knotting or snap-fit ​​fixing, threaded connections reduce stress concentration and prevent the rope ends from unraveling or slipping. The fasteners 417 are designed to be detachable, allowing for component replacement without cutting the traction rope. For example, when one side of the traction rope is worn, it can be disassembled and repaired simply by loosening the corresponding fastener.

[0033] Furthermore, depending on actual needs, one or two sets of drive components 4 can be selectively provided. If one set of drive components 4 is provided, a force is applied from one side of the two sets of second photovoltaic modules 3, simultaneously driving the two sets of second photovoltaic modules 3 to expand outwards or retract inwards along both sides of the width direction of the container body 1. If two sets of drive components 4 are provided, a force is applied simultaneously from both sides of the two sets of second photovoltaic modules 3, simultaneously driving the two sets of second photovoltaic modules 3 to expand outwards or retract inwards along both sides of the width direction of the container body 1.
