Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic bracket processing technology, specifically to a photovoltaic bracket profile surface galvanizing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Tracking photovoltaic (PV) brackets are PV brackets that can automatically adjust the angle of the PV array according to the change of the solar incident angle. Tracking PV brackets are mainly divided into horizontal single-axis tracking brackets, inclined single-axis tracking brackets, and dual-axis tracking brackets. Single-axis / dual-axis tracking brackets need to be galvanized by galvanizing equipment during the production process to improve the corrosion resistance and weather resistance of the brackets.

[0003] In the prior art, patent publication number CN 222294167 U discloses a hot-dip galvanizing device for photovoltaic brackets. When the moving frame moves along the slide rail, two sets of holding frames alternately position themselves directly above the zinc bath. While one frame is being galvanized, the other frame can be loaded and unloaded, allowing for simultaneous galvanizing and loading / unloading, thus improving galvanizing efficiency. After galvanizing of the single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket of the photovoltaic panel, the holding frame is moved upwards by the drive unit and removed from the zinc bath. However, at this time, a significant amount of molten zinc still adheres to the inner wall of the holding frame and the surface of the single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket within the frame, resulting in more molten zinc being consumed than actually used during the galvanizing process, leading to zinc waste. This needs improvement. Therefore, we propose a galvanizing device for the surface of photovoltaic bracket profiles. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the existing defects and provide a galvanizing equipment for photovoltaic bracket profiles. When the galvanized single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket of the photovoltaic panel is separated from the galvanized part, the galvanizing carrying component of the single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket is vertically and gently vibrated at high frequency through a transmission element. This vibrates the excess zinc liquid on the surface of the single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket and inside the galvanizing carrying component to the bottom of the galvanizing carrying component and then discharges it into the galvanized part, reducing the zinc liquid waste rate and saving costs. This can effectively solve the problems in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a galvanizing equipment for photovoltaic bracket profiles, including a galvanizing frame, a cross is slidably connected in a groove opened on the rear wall of the galvanizing frame, an electro-hydraulic push rod is provided at both the upper left and right ends of the cross, a lifting frame is installed at the telescopic end of the electro-hydraulic push rod, a galvanizing frame is installed at the lower end of the lifting frame, a galvanizing pool is provided in the middle of the bottom wall of the galvanizing frame, and a shaking mechanism is also included;

[0006] The shaking mechanism includes a connecting seat, a telescopic column, a spring, and a transmission assembly. The connecting seat is located at the telescopic end of the electro-hydraulic actuator. The lower side of the connecting seat is fixedly connected to the adjacent lifting frame through three evenly distributed telescopic columns and springs. Transmission assemblies are provided between adjacent electro-hydraulic actuators, lifting frames, and crosses. When the photovoltaic panel single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket is separated from the galvanized part after galvanization, the transmission element causes the galvanized carrying component of the single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket to vibrate vertically at a high frequency. This vibrates the excess zinc liquid on the surface of the single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket and inside the galvanized carrying component to the bottom of the galvanized carrying component and discharge it into the galvanized part, reducing zinc liquid waste and saving costs.

[0007] Furthermore, it also includes a microcontroller, which is located outside the galvanizing frame. The input terminal of the microcontroller is electrically connected to an external power supply, and the output terminal of the microcontroller is electrically connected to the input terminal of the electro-hydraulic actuator, making it convenient to control the electrical components.

[0008] Furthermore, the transmission assembly includes a fixed seat, a rotating shaft, and a cam. The fixed seats are respectively disposed on the lower side of the connecting seat one. The middle part of each fixed seat is rotatably connected to a cam via a rotating shaft. The cams are all installed in cooperation with the adjacent lifting frame, so that the galvanized frame inside the galvanizing equipment for the photovoltaic bracket profile can be vertically and gently vibrate at high frequency.

[0009] Furthermore, the transmission assembly also includes gears, electro-hydraulic actuators II, and rack plates. The electro-hydraulic actuators II are symmetrically arranged laterally on the lower side of the cross. The input ends of the electro-hydraulic actuators II are electrically connected to the output ends of the microcontroller. The telescopic ends of the electro-hydraulic actuators II are equipped with rack plates. The opposing ends of the two rotating shafts are equipped with gears. The gears are installed in conjunction with the adjacent rack plates, so that the cam inside the galvanizing equipment on the surface of the photovoltaic bracket profile can rotate.

[0010] Furthermore, the lower front and rear ends of the lifting frame are provided with connecting seats two, and slots are opened inside the connecting seats two. The upper front and rear ends of the galvanizing tank are provided with connecting grooves. The connecting seats two are installed in conjunction with the connecting grooves. The connecting grooves are provided with iron seats through telescopic columns two and springs two. The springs two are movably connected to the outer ends of the adjacent telescopic columns two. The iron seats are installed in conjunction with the slots to vertically insert and connect the galvanizing frame inside the galvanizing equipment for the photovoltaic bracket profile surface.

[0011] Furthermore, each slot is equipped with an electromagnet, and the input end of the electromagnet is electrically connected to the output end of the microcontroller to electromagnetically attract the iron base inside the galvanizing equipment on the surface of the photovoltaic bracket profile.

[0012] Furthermore, two symmetrically distributed sliding grooves are provided on both the front and rear walls of the galvanizing pool, and two symmetrically distributed guide strips are provided on both the front and rear sides of the galvanizing frame. The guide strips are installed in conjunction with the sliding grooves so that the components of different photovoltaic single-axis / dual-axis tracking brackets are located in the same position in the galvanizing pool during the galvanizing process.

[0013] Furthermore, a linear motor is provided on the front wall of the galvanizing frame. The input end of the linear motor is electrically connected to the output end of the microcontroller, and the moving end of the linear motor is fixedly connected to the front end of the cross, thereby controlling the lateral position adjustment of the photovoltaic panel single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket of the photovoltaic bracket surface galvanizing equipment.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] The photovoltaic bracket profile galvanizing equipment performs galvanizing operations on single-axis / dual-axis tracking brackets for photovoltaic panels. When the single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket of the photovoltaic panel is separated from the galvanized part after galvanizing, the galvanizing carrying component of the single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket is vertically and gently vibrated at high frequency through the connecting seat, telescopic column, spring and transmission components. This vibration causes excess zinc liquid on the surface of the single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket and inside the galvanizing carrying component to be collected at the bottom of the galvanizing carrying component. Then, guided by the inclined surface at the bottom of the galvanizing carrying component, the zinc liquid is discharged from the bottom of the galvanizing carrying component into the galvanizing part, reducing zinc liquid waste and saving costs.

[0025] It also includes a shaking mechanism 7, which includes a connecting seat 71, a telescopic column 72, a spring 73 and a transmission assembly 74. The connecting seat 71 is respectively set at the telescopic end of the electro-hydraulic push rod 4.

[0026] The transmission assembly 74 includes a fixed base 741, a rotating shaft 742, and a cam 743. The fixed base 741 is respectively located on the lower side of the connecting base 71. The middle part of each fixed base 741 is rotatably connected to the cam 743 through the rotating shaft 742. The cam 743 is installed in cooperation with the adjacent lifting frame 5. The transmission assembly 74 also includes a gear 744, an electro-hydraulic actuator 745, and a rack plate 746.

The gears 744 are installed in cooperation with the adjacent rack plates 746.

[0027] The working principle of the photovoltaic bracket profile surface galvanizing equipment provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0028] When performing surface galvanizing on the single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket of the photovoltaic panel, first place the single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket of the photovoltaic panel into the galvanizing frame 6. Then, place the galvanizing frame 6, which contains the ungalvanized single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket of the photovoltaic panel, into the bracket on the right side of the bottom wall of the galvanizing frame 1. Subsequently, the microcontroller 2 activates the electro-hydraulic actuator 4, causing its telescopic end to indirectly drive the lifting frame 5 to move vertically downward. The lifting frame 5 drives the connecting seat 13 to move downward. During the downward movement, the connecting seat 13 is fully inserted into the vertically corresponding connecting groove 9. Inside, the microcontroller 2 then activates the electromagnet 15, which generates an electromagnetic attraction to the adjacent iron base 12, causing the iron base 12 to overcome the tension of the second spring 11 and insert into the adjacent slot 14. The telescopic end of the telescopic column 10 and the second spring 11 are stretched, thereby achieving the connection and fixation between the lifting frame 5 and the galvanized frame 6. Then, the microcontroller 2 controls the electro-hydraulic push rod 4 to indirectly drive the fixed ungalvanized galvanized frame 6 upward with its telescopic end. Then, the microcontroller 2 activates the linear motor 17 to drive its moving end to move the linear motor 10 upward. The cross 3 slides along the first chute to its leftmost end. At this point, the ungalvanized frame 6 moves to the center of the top of the galvanizing tank 8. Then, the microcontroller 2 controls the electro-hydraulic actuator 4 to extend its telescopic end, indirectly moving the fixed ungalvanized frame 6 downwards, allowing it to enter the galvanizing tank 8. During this process, the guide strip 16 of the ungalvanized frame 6 slides vertically along the corresponding second chute, thus restricting the position of the ungalvanized frame 6 within the galvanizing tank 8. This is achieved by the galvanizing tank 8... The photovoltaic panel single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket in the ungalvanized galvanized frame 6 is galvanized. At the same time, the microcontroller 2 shuts down the corresponding electromagnet 15 in the galvanizing pool 8. The electromagnet 15 is de-energized, and the electromagnetic attraction received by the iron base 12 disappears. The tension of the spring 11 causes the iron base 12 to move away from the slot 14 and reset, thereby releasing the connection between the lifting frame 5 and the galvanized frame 6. Then, the microcontroller 2 starts the linear motor 17, which drives the cross 3 to slide along the slide groove to the rightmost end.

[0029] After the galvanized frame 6, which houses the ungalvanized photovoltaic panel single / dual-axis tracking bracket, is galvanized in the galvanizing tank 8, the cross 3 is located at the rightmost end of the chute. The electro-hydraulic actuator 4 on the left is directly above the galvanizing tank 8. The microcontroller 2 controls the electro-hydraulic actuator 4 and the electromagnet 15 on the left to fix the galvanized frame 6 in the galvanizing tank 8 and move it vertically upwards using the same principle. During this process, the microcontroller 2 controls the electro-hydraulic actuator 745 on the left to move its telescopic end horizontally, thereby aligning the rack plate 746 vertically with the adjacent gear 744 (in other states, the microcontroller 2 controls the electro-hydraulic actuator 745 to move its telescopic end away from the adjacent gear 744). As the galvanized frame 6 moves upwards, the gear 744 moves upwards synchronously. When the gear 744 moves upwards to a certain extent, it meshes with the adjacent rack plate 746. The meshing connection of the gear 744 causes the rotating shaft 742 to move... The corresponding cam 743 rotates. During the rotation of cam 743, when the protruding part of cam 743 contacts the upper side of the lifting frame 5, the lifting frame 5 is squeezed by the protruding part of cam 743 and moves downward relative to the connecting seat 71. The telescopic end of telescopic column 72 and spring 73 are stretched. When the protruding part of cam 743 does not contact the upper side of the lifting frame 5, the tension and reset elasticity of spring 73 causes the position of lifting frame 5 relative to connecting seat 71 to move upward. Thus, through the continuous rotation of cam 743, the lifting frame 5 drives the galvanized frame 6 below to perform vertical up-and-down light high-frequency vibration relative to the rising state of connecting seat 71. This allows excess zinc plating liquid after galvanizing the surface of the photovoltaic single-axis / dual-axis tracking bracket inside the galvanized frame 6 to slide down and accumulate to the bottom wall of the galvanized frame 6, and fall back into the galvanized pool 8 below through the corresponding rectangular opening along the inclined surface of the bottom wall of the galvanized frame 6, reducing the consumption of zinc plating liquid in the galvanized pool 8.

[0030] The device controls the internal electrical components through a single-chip microcomputer 2. When the electro-hydraulic actuator 4 on the left is used to unload the galvanized frame 6 in the galvanizing tank 8, the electro-hydraulic actuator 4 on the right is used to load the galvanized frame 6 on the right side. The galvanizing equipment for photovoltaic bracket profiles achieves synchronous operation of loading and unloading.

[0031] It is worth noting that the microcontroller 2 disclosed in the above embodiments can be an MSP430, the electro-hydraulic actuator 4 can be a DYTZ-1000, the electro-hydraulic actuator 745 can be a DYTZ-1000, the electromagnet 15 can be an ELE-P100, and the linear motor 17 can be a DGL150-AUM2-S. The microcontroller 2 controls the operation of the electro-hydraulic actuator 4, the electro-hydraulic actuator 745, the electromagnet 15, and the linear motor 17 using methods commonly used in the prior art.

[0032] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
