Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of solar panel de-icing and snow removal, and more particularly to a solar panel de-icing and snow removal device. Background Technology

[0002] Solar panels, as the core component of a solar power system, are mainly composed of semiconductor materials, such as monocrystalline silicon and polycrystalline silicon. Their working principle is based on the photoelectric effect. When sunlight shines on the panel, photons interact with electrons in the semiconductor material, causing the electrons to gain energy and move in a directed manner, thus forming an electric current and converting solar energy into electrical energy. In cold regions, solar panels often face the problem of snow accumulation and icing in winter. Snow and ice covering the panel surface block sunlight from reaching the semiconductor material, greatly weakening the panel's absorption of light energy and significantly reducing power generation efficiency. To ensure the stable and efficient operation of solar panels, de-icing devices are installed.

[0003] Most snow removal devices are typically used in conjunction with tractors. First, the device is mounted on the tractor's adjusting lever, which is then used to adjust the height of the snow removal device. Adjusting it to a suitable height, close enough to the solar panel, allows the brushes on the device to effectively clear the snow and ice. However, this requires experienced operators. If the operation is not performed correctly, with the brushes too close or too far from the solar panel, excessive pressure between the brushes and the panel can scratch the protective film, reducing the absorption of sunlight and thus affecting power generation efficiency. Conversely, if the distance is too far, the brushes cannot make sufficient contact with the solar panel surface, failing to effectively remove snow and ice, blocking sunlight, and hindering power generation. This necessitates operators relying on experience to repeatedly adjust the distance between the brushes and the solar panel, increasing the complexity and time of operation and reducing the overall efficiency of snow removal.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new type of de-icing and snow removal device for solar panels to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a de-icing and snow removal device for solar power panels.

[0006] This utility model provides a snow and ice removal device for solar power panels, comprising: a carrying frame, a spraying assembly, sliding blocks, an installation assembly, and an adaptive assembly. A rotating disk is rotatably connected to the bottom of the carrying frame, and a snow removal brush is fixedly connected to the outer circumference of the rotating disk. A motor is fixedly connected to one end of the carrying frame. A sliding groove is provided at the top of the carrying frame. Spraying assemblies are symmetrically installed on both sides of the carrying frame. Two sliding blocks are symmetrically slidably connected inside the sliding groove. A support rod is rotatably connected to the top of each sliding block. A connecting plate is rotatably connected between the tops of the two support rods. A hanging frame is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate. An installation assembly is installed at the connection between the connecting plate and the hanging frame. An adaptive assembly is installed between the two sliding blocks.

[0007] Preferably, the spraying assembly includes: a delivery pipe, a receiving head fixedly connected to the top end of the delivery pipe, and multiple nozzles evenly distributed and fixedly connected to the two delivery pipes.

[0008] Preferably, the installation components include: bolts, the bolts being threaded to the two wing plates of the lifting frame and the connecting plate, a first nut being threaded to the top of the bolts, a shock-absorbing spring being fitted around the bolts, washers being fixedly connected to both ends of the shock-absorbing springs, and a second nut being threaded to the middle of the bolts.

[0009] Preferably, the adaptive component includes: two sliding rods, with the opposite sides of the two sliding rods fixedly connected to the two sliding blocks, and a pressing plate fixedly connected between each of the two sliding rods, and a telescopic rod fixedly connected between the two pressing plates. The telescopic rod is a hollow rod and a solid rod, with the solid rod sliding inside the hollow rod. A strong spring is sleeved on the outside of the telescopic rod, and a cavity is opened inside the top of the shelf.

[0010] Preferably, the drive end of the motor is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating disk.

[0011] Preferably, the two gaskets are in contact with the first nut and the second nut respectively on opposite sides.

[0012] Preferably, the outer side of the sliding rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the top of the shelf, and the two ends of the strong spring are fixedly connected to the two compression plates.

[0013] Preferably, the outer surface of the extrusion plate is slidably connected to the inner wall of the chamber.

[0014] Compared with related technologies, the snow and ice removal device for solar panels provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] In operation, this invention allows the tractor to place the device on the solar panel, causing the carrier to slide the sliding block inside the sliding groove. This causes the support rod to rotate inside the top of the sliding groove, compressing the powerful spring. Through the cooperation of the spring force and the support rod, the snow removal part is adaptively adjusted, thus avoiding the problem of excessive or insufficient pressure between the brush and the solar panel due to insufficient operator experience. Operators no longer need to rely excessively on experience to repeatedly adjust the distance between the brush and the solar panel, simplifying the operation process, saving operation time, and improving the overall efficiency of snow removal operations.

[0016] In this invention, when installing a snow removal device and a tractor, the lifting frame is aligned with the mounting hole of the connecting plate and covered, and then the bolts are inserted. After tightening the second nut, the washer and shock-absorbing spring are inserted, and then the first nut is tightened to complete the installation between the two. The washer can make the pressure applied by the nut more evenly distributed on the lifting frame. At the same time, the shock-absorbing spring and the washer work together to reduce the damage to the lifting frame of the connection between the snow removal device and the tractor caused by vibration and friction, thus playing a protective role and improving the stability of the installation.

[0017] This invention connects a connecting pipe to a receiving head, allowing the de-icing agent to be delivered through the receiving head into a delivery pipe and then sprayed out through a nozzle. When used in conjunction with a snow removal brush, the de-icing agent is first sprayed onto the snow and ice, causing them to melt and soften. The snow removal brush then sweeps away the snow and ice more easily. Compared to using a snow removal brush alone, this significantly shortens snow removal time and improves overall snow removal efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0024] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 4 A snow and ice removal device for a solar panel includes: a frame 1, a rotating disk 2 rotatably connected to the bottom of the frame 1, the rotating disk 2 being able to rotate flexibly at the bottom of the frame 1, a snow removal brush 3 fixedly connected to the outer circumference of the rotating disk 2, the snow removal brush 3 rotating accordingly when the rotating disk 2 rotates, which can sweep away the snow and ice on the surface of the solar panel, effectively removing snow and ice layers, a motor 4 fixedly connected to one end of the frame 1, the drive end of the motor 4 being fixedly connected to one end of the rotating disk 2, the motor 4 serving as a power source to provide power for the rotation of the rotating disk 2, and a sliding groove 8 provided at the top of the frame 1;

[0026] The spraying assembly is symmetrically installed on both sides of the frame 1. The spraying assembly includes: a delivery pipe 5, which serves as a delivery channel for the de-icing agent; a receiving head 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the delivery pipe 5; the receiving head 6 is used to connect to an external de-icing agent supply device, receive the de-icing agent and guide it into the delivery pipe 5; and multiple nozzles 7 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the two delivery pipes 5. The nozzles 7 spray the de-icing agent in the delivery pipe 5 evenly onto the ice and snow on the solar panel, so that the ice and snow melt and soften, making it easier for the subsequent snow removal brush 3 to clean.

[0027] Two sliding blocks 9 are symmetrically slidably connected inside the sliding groove 8. The sliding groove 8 provides a track for the sliding of the sliding blocks 9. A support rod 10 is rotatably connected inside the top of the sliding block 9. The support rod 10 can rotate inside the top of the sliding block 9, changing its angle and position by rotation. A connecting plate 11 is rotatably connected to the top of the two support rods 10. A lifting frame 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate 11. The lifting frame 12 is used to connect with the adjusting rod of the tractor.

[0028] An installation assembly is installed at the connection between the connecting plate 11 and the lifting frame 12. This assembly ensures a stable connection between the connecting plate 11 and the lifting frame 12. The installation assembly includes a bolt 13, which is threaded to the connection between the lifting frame 12 and the connecting plate 11. A first nut 14 is threaded onto the top of the bolt 13. Tightening the first nut 14 further secures the connection between the lifting frame 12 and the connecting plate 11, providing stability for the gasket 16 and the shock-absorbing spring 15. A shock-absorbing spring 15 is fitted over the bolt 13. 15 can reduce the impact of vibration generated during tractor travel and snow removal operations on the connecting part of the lifting frame 12, and play a role in shock absorption. Both ends of the shock-absorbing spring 15 are fixedly connected with washers 16. Washers 16 can increase the contact area between the first nut 14 and the connecting part of the lifting frame 12. The outer middle end of the bolt 13 is threaded with a second nut 17. After the second nut 17 is tightened, it can further fix the connection between the lifting frame 12 and the connecting plate 11. The far sides of the two washers 16 are in contact with the first nut 14 and the second nut 17 respectively.

[0029] An adaptive component is installed between the two sliding blocks 9. The adaptive component includes two sliding rods 18, the outer side of which is slidably connected to the inner top wall of the shelf 1. The opposite sides of the two sliding rods 18 are fixedly connected to the two sliding blocks 9, so that the sliding of the sliding blocks 9 can drive the sliding rods 18 to slide. A compression plate 19 is fixedly connected between each of the two sliding rods 18. The compression plate 19 is used to compress the power spring 21 and transmit force. A telescopic rod 20 is fixedly connected between the two compression plates 19. The telescopic rod 20 can play a role in the extension and retraction of the power spring 21. For guiding and stabilizing purposes, the telescopic rod 20 consists of a hollow rod and a solid rod, with the solid rod sliding inside the hollow rod. A strong spring 21 is sleeved on the outside of the telescopic rod 20. The strong spring 21 is elastic and generates a spring force when compressed, which pushes the compression plate 19 and the sliding rod 18 to move. The two ends of the strong spring 21 are fixedly connected to the two compression plates 19. A cavity 22 is opened inside the top of the shelf 1. The outside of the compression plate 19 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the cavity 22. The cavity 22 provides space and guidance for the sliding of the compression plate 19, ensuring that the compression plate 19 will not deviate during the sliding process.

[0030] The working principle of the snow and ice removal device for solar panels provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0031] First, install the snow removal device to the tractor. Align the lifting frame 12 with the mounting holes of the connecting plate 11 and cover it, then insert the bolts 13. First, tighten the second nut 17, then insert the washer 16 and the shock-absorbing spring 15, and finally tighten the first nut 14 to complete the connection between the snow removal device and the snowplow. During this process, the washer 16 evenly distributes the pressure applied by the first nut 14 and the second nut 17 on the lifting frame 12. The shock-absorbing spring 15 and the washer 16 work together to reduce damage to the connection between the snow removal device and the snowplow, i.e., the lifting frame 12, caused by vibration and friction, thus improving installation stability.

[0032] The operator then manipulates the tractor, which moves the entire snow removal device above the solar panel via an adjusting lever. As the carrier 1 approaches the solar panel, it causes the sliding block 9 to move relative to or in opposite directions within the sliding groove 8. The sliding of the sliding block 9 causes the support rod 10 to rotate inside the top of the sliding block 9. Simultaneously, the rotation of the support rod 10 forces the sliding rod 18, which in turn causes the pressing plate 19 to press against the telescopic rod 20 and the strong spring 21. During the compression of the strong spring 21, a rebound force is generated. This rebound force is evenly transmitted to the pressing plate 19 through the telescopic rod 20, ensuring that the support rod 10 maintains an outward extension tendency. When the tractor moves the snow removal device from left to right or from right to left, this tendency allows the brushes on the carrier 1 to automatically adjust their position according to the surface of the solar panel, achieving adaptive contact with the solar panel and avoiding problems of excessive or insufficient pressure between the brushes and the solar panel due to operator inexperience.

[0033] After adaptive adjustment is completed, motor 4 is started. The drive end of motor 4 drives the rotating disk 2 to rotate, which in turn drives the snow removal brush 3 fixedly connected to its exterior to rotate, clearing the snow and ice from the surface of the solar panel. Simultaneously, liquid snow removal agent is connected to the receiving head 6 via a connecting pipe, and then transported through the receiving head 6 into the delivery pipe 5. It is then sprayed out from multiple nozzles 7 symmetrically fixed on both sides of the delivery pipe 5. The snow removal agent is first sprayed onto the snow and ice to melt and soften it. Combined with the rotating snow removal brush 3, the snow and ice are more easily removed. Initial snow removal is performed from left to right, followed by the application of snow removal agent, and then a second round of snow removal is performed from right to left after the snow and ice have melted and softened. Furthermore, because the receiving head 6 and nozzles 7 are installed on both sides of the device, the entire device can clean from both the front and back, greatly shortening the snow removal time and improving the overall snow removal efficiency.

[0034] 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.
