Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of solar panel technology, specifically to a solar energy device. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing global demand for renewable energy, solar energy, as a clean and sustainable energy source, has been widely adopted. Solar energy devices convert solar radiation into electricity and are widely used in various fields such as homes, industry, transportation, and agriculture. Their core technologies include solar panels, inverters, batteries, and related control systems. In traditional solar energy devices, solar panels convert solar energy into direct current (DC) through the photovoltaic effect, and then an inverter converts the DC power into alternating current (AC) to supply various electrical devices.

[0003] According to Chinese Patent No. CN222147450U, a solar panel device includes a first base; a second base is movably connected to one side of the first base, and a third base is movably connected to one side of the second base; first support rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the first base, the second base, and the third base; a second support rod is movably connected to the top of the first support rod, and a third support rod is movably connected to the top of the second support rod; a first solar panel is fixedly connected between opposite sides of the two second support rods; and a second solar panel is fixedly connected between opposite sides of the two third support rods.

[0004] In the aforementioned solution, the device allows for quick and convenient disassembly and assembly of solar panels, enabling rapid replacement when damaged. However, it still suffers from the following drawback: while the solar panels can be unfolded for use when needed, there is a lack of effective storage methods when they are no longer required. This makes it difficult to easily retract or fold the panels, resulting in significant storage space consumption. This issue may render the device inconvenient in situations with limited space or where flexible space adjustments are needed, especially when storage areas are restricted or frequent movement of the solar panels is required. Unretracted solar panels will occupy considerable space, impacting the overall user experience and efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a solar energy device that solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A solar energy device includes a base, with a plurality of first frames and second frames disposed on the top of the base. Two supports are connected to the top surface of the base, and mounting plates are respectively connected to the top surfaces of the two supports. Mounting blocks are respectively connected to the top surfaces of the two mounting plates, and discs are respectively connected to one side of each of the two mounting blocks. Mounting rods are rotatably connected to one side of each of the two discs. Semicircular rings are respectively connected to both sides of the top surfaces of the plurality of first frames and second frames. A rotating shaft is disposed inside each semicircular ring, and both ends of the rotating shaft are rotatably connected to the outer walls of the two mounting rods. The first frames and second frames are inserted into each other, and solar panels are disposed inside the first frames and second frames. Mounting grooves are respectively formed on one side of each mounting plate, and support plates are slidably disposed inside the mounting grooves.

[0008] Preferably, one side of the mounting rod is connected to a plurality of first mounting boxes, one side of each of the plurality of first frames is provided with a first fixing hole, and a first lever is slidably disposed inside each of the plurality of first mounting boxes. The first lever is inserted into the first fixing hole, and a first spring is disposed inside each of the plurality of first mounting boxes. One side of each of the plurality of first levers abuts against one end of each of the plurality of first springs.

[0009] Preferably, a plurality of second mounting boxes are connected to the top surfaces of a plurality of first frames, and a second fixing hole is provided on the top surfaces of the plurality of second frames respectively. A second lever is provided inside the plurality of second mounting boxes respectively, and the second lever is inserted into the second fixing hole. A second spring is provided in the plurality of second mounting boxes respectively, and one side of the plurality of second levers abuts against one end of the plurality of second springs respectively.

[0010] Preferably, the first frame and the second frame are respectively provided with a fixing groove on one side, and a buffer pad is provided inside the fixing groove.

[0011] Preferably, the bottom surface of the base is provided with casters for easy movement, and the casters are installed at the four corners of the bottom surface of the base by means of bolt connection.

[0012] Preferably, the interiors of the first mounting box and the second mounting box are respectively provided with circular grooves, and the interiors of the circular grooves are respectively provided with a first spring and a second spring.

[0013] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are as follows: During use, the operator fixes the solar panel inside the first and second frames. By pushing the first lever with external force, disengaging it from the first fixing hole, the mounting rod rotates 90 degrees clockwise, causing the solar panel to rotate as well. Because the solar panel and mounting rod are connected by a rotational connection, the solar panel maintains a stable upward posture throughout the rotation. When the mounting rod is parallel to the base, the support plate can be pulled out from inside the mounting rod. At this time, the top surface of the support plate contacts the bottom surface of the solar panel, ensuring all solar panels are on the same horizontal plane, thus maximizing sunlight reception. When it is necessary to retract the solar panel, pushing one end of the lever compresses the built-in spring structure, causing the mounting rod to rotate 90 degrees counterclockwise. As the mounting rod rotates, the device completes spatial displacement. When the mounting rod is perpendicular to the base, releasing the lever causes the spring's restoring force to push it back to its original fixing hole, forming a mechanical lock. This design effectively saves space through rotation and folding while ensuring the solar panel receives maximum sunlight. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a solar energy device, including a base 1, with a plurality of first frames 2 and second frames 3 arranged above the base 1. Two supports 4 are connected to the top surface of the base 1, and mounting plates 5 are respectively connected to the top surfaces of the two supports 4. Mounting blocks 6 are respectively connected to the top surfaces of the two mounting plates 5. A disc 7 is respectively connected to one side of the two mounting blocks 6, and mounting rods 8 are respectively rotatably connected to one side of the two discs 7. Semicircular rings 9 are respectively connected to both sides of the top surfaces of the plurality of first frames 2 and second frames 3. A rotating shaft 10 is arranged inside the semicircular ring 9. The two ends of the rotating shaft 10 are respectively rotatably connected to the outer walls of the two mounting rods 8. The first frames 2 and the second frames 3 are inserted and connected. Solar panels are arranged inside the first frames 2 and the second frames 3. Mounting grooves 15 are respectively opened on one side of the mounting plates 5, and support plates 23 are slidably arranged inside the mounting grooves 15.

[0022] More specifically, the solar panels are installed inside the first frame 2 and the second frame 3. When the solar panels need to be laid flat, the mounting rod 8 is rotated 90 degrees clockwise, causing the solar panels to lie flat on top of the support plate 23, thereby maximizing the reception of sunlight. To fold up the solar panels, the mounting rod 8 is simply rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise, and the solar panels will fold into a three-dimensional shape, effectively saving space.

[0023] In this utility model, a plurality of first mounting boxes 11 are connected to one side of the mounting rod 8, and a plurality of first fixing holes 12 are respectively opened on one side of the plurality of first frames 2. A first lever 13 is slidably arranged inside the plurality of first mounting boxes 11, and the first lever 13 is inserted into the first fixing hole 12. A first spring 14 is respectively arranged inside the plurality of first mounting boxes 11, and one side of the plurality of first levers 13 abuts against one end of the plurality of first springs 14.

[0024] More specifically, when the solar panel needs to be laid flat, the first lever 13 is first pushed by external force to disengage it from the first fixing hole 12, thus freeing the solar panel from being fixed to the mounting rod 8. To fold the solar panel, simply release the lever; the rebound force of the built-in spring will push the lever back to its original position in the first fixing hole 12, forming a mechanical lock, which enhances the stability of the device after folding.

[0025] In this utility model, several first frames 2 are connected to several second mounting boxes 16 on their top surfaces, several second frames 3 are respectively provided with second fixing holes 17 on their top surfaces, several second mounting boxes 16 are respectively provided with second levers 18 inside, the second levers 18 are inserted into the second fixing holes 17, several second mounting boxes 16 are respectively provided with second springs 19, and one side of several second levers 18 abuts against one end of several second springs 19.

[0026] More specifically, when installing the solar panel, the first frame 2 and the second frame 3 are interlocked to form a single structure. Then, the second lever 18 is pushed so that one end aligns with the second fixing hole 17, thereby securing the solar panel within the frame. When it is necessary to remove or reinstall the solar panel, simply push the second lever 18 to disengage it from the second fixing hole 17, allowing for convenient installation or removal.

[0027] In this utility model, a fixing groove 20 is provided on one side of the first frame 2 and the second frame 3 respectively, and a buffer pad 21 is provided inside the fixing groove 20.

[0028] More specifically, the buffer pad 21 can protect the area around the solar panel.

[0029] In this utility model, the bottom surface of the base 1 is provided with universal wheels 22 for easy movement. The universal wheels 22 are installed at the four corners of the bottom surface of the base 1 by means of bolt connection.

[0030] More specifically, the casters 22 facilitate the movement of the device.

[0031] In this utility model, the interiors of the first mounting box 11 and the second mounting box 16 are respectively provided with circular grooves, and the interiors of the circular grooves are respectively provided with a first spring 14 and a second spring 19.

[0032] More specifically, the restoring force of the first spring 14 pushes it back to the initial first fixing hole 12 position, and the restoring force of the second spring 19 pushes it back to the initial second fixing hole 17 position.

[0033] Working Principle: In use, the operator interlocks the first frame 2 and the second frame 3 to form a single structure. The solar panel is then placed in the fixing slot 20. By pushing the second lever 18, one end aligns with the second fixing hole 17, thus fixing the solar panel within the frame. External force pushes the first lever 13, disengaging it from the first fixing hole. The mounting rod 8 then rotates 90 degrees clockwise, causing the solar panel to rotate as well. Because the solar panel and mounting rod 8 are connected by a rotational connection, the solar panel maintains a stable upward orientation during rotation. When the mounting rod 8 is parallel to the base 1, the support plate 23 can be pulled out from inside the mounting rod 8. At this time, the top surface of the support plate 23 contacts the bottom surface of the solar panel, ensuring all solar panels are on the same horizontal plane, maximizing sunlight reception. When it is necessary to retract the solar panel, pushing one end of the lever compresses the built-in spring structure, causing the mounting rod 8 to rotate 90 degrees counterclockwise. As the mounting rod 8 rotates, the device completes its spatial displacement. When the mounting rod 8 is perpendicular to the base 1, the lever is released, and the spring's restoring force pushes it back to its original fixing hole position, forming a mechanical lock. This design effectively saves space through rotation and folding while ensuring that the solar panel receives maximum sunlight.
