A cleaning mechanism 8 is provided below the top support plate 7 for cleaning the surface of the controller. The other end of the water pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the heating steam tank 6.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6An arc-shaped acrylic baffle 9 is fixedly connected to one end of the top support plate 7, which plays a protective role during the cleaning process, preventing steam and dust from splashing everywhere and avoiding impact on the surrounding environment and operators.

[0027] A central handle 10 is fixedly connected to the other end of the top support plate 7. A movable frame 11 is movably inserted into the bottom of the base 1, which facilitates moving the equipment to the location where the photovoltaic water pump controller needs to be cleaned. At the same time, after being fixed to the base 1, it can ensure the stability of the equipment during operation. A side handle 12 is fixedly connected to the upper end of one side of the movable frame 11. The central handle 10 is convenient for operators to hold and operate when the equipment is moved or its position is adjusted, while the side handle 12 is convenient for applying force when pushing the movable frame 11.

[0028] The bottom end of the mobile frame 11 is provided with a threaded fastener 13. By rotating the threaded fastener 13, the mobile frame 11 can be fixed or separated from the base frame 1, ensuring that the equipment remains stable during operation. It also makes it convenient to disassemble the mobile frame 11 for hand operation when needed. The other end of the threaded fastener 13 passes through the mobile frame 11 and is threadedly connected to the base frame 1. The bottom of the mobile frame 11 is fixedly connected with a universal brake wheel 14, which facilitates the movement of the entire equipment. There are two sets of side handles 12, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mobile frame 11. There are multiple sets of universal brake wheels 14, which are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the mobile frame 11.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 The cleaning mechanism 8 includes a first support block 801, a second support block 802, and a hollow rod 803.

[0030] An inner air pipe 804, a jet nozzle 805, and an air delivery pipe 806 are included. The inner air pipe 804 is fixedly connected to the inside of the hollow rod 803. The jet nozzle 805 is fixedly connected to the lower outer end of the inner air pipe 804. The air delivery pipe 806 is fixedly connected to the outlet of the heating steam tank 6. An adapter 807, a rubber brush 808, and a motor 809 are also included. The adapter 807 is fixedly connected to the other end of the air delivery pipe 806. The rubber brush 808 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the hollow rod 803. The motor 809 is fixedly connected to the outside of the support block 802.

The output end of the motor 809 is fixedly connected to the hollow rod 803. The water pump is then turned on. 4. Water pump 4 draws clean water from clean water tank 2 and delivers it to heating steam tank 6 through water pipe 5. At the same time, heater 3 heats the water and clean water in heating steam tank 6 to generate steam. The steam enters the inner air pipe 804 through air pipe 806 and is then evenly sprayed onto the surface of photovoltaic water pump controller through jet nozzle 805. The heated steam can quickly break the adhesion between the stains and the controller surface. After spraying, the hollow roller 803 is rotated by motor 809, and the rubber brush 808 on the hollow roller 803 rotates accordingly. The rotating rubber brush 808 can thoroughly wipe the surface of photovoltaic water pump controller without leaving any cleaning dead corners, further ensuring the comprehensiveness and uniformity of cleaning.

[0031] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0032] Step 1: Move the device to the location where the photovoltaic water pump controller needs cleaning using the universal brake wheels 14 at the bottom of the mobile frame 11. Then, fix the mobile frame 11 to the base frame 1 by rotating the threaded fasteners 13 to ensure the device remains stable during operation and is easier to use. Then, turn on the water pump 4. The water pump 4 draws clean water from the clean water tank 2 and delivers the clean water to the heating steam tank 6 through the water pipe 5. At the same time, the heater 3 heats the water and clean water in the heating steam tank 6 to generate steam. The steam enters the inner air pipe 804 through the air pipe 806 and is then evenly sprayed onto the surface of the photovoltaic water pump controller through the jet nozzle 805. The heated steam can quickly break the adhesion between the stains and the controller surface and can penetrate deep into the tiny gaps and holes on the surface of the photovoltaic water pump controller, allowing stubborn stains to fully absorb moisture and heat, thereby achieving deep softening and greatly shortening the cleaning time.

[0033] Step two: After spraying the surface of the controller, the hollow roller 803 is rotated by the motor 809. The rubber brush 808 on the hollow roller 803 rotates accordingly. Due to the design of the adapter 807, the rotation of the hollow roller 803 will not affect the inner air pipe 804 and the jet nozzle 805. The rotating rubber brush 808 can thoroughly wipe the surface of the photovoltaic water pump controller, leaving no dead corners, further ensuring the comprehensiveness and uniformity of cleaning, and restoring the controller surface to a clean and tidy state. The steam softening and the wiping of the rubber brush 808 work together to form a synergistic cleaning process, which not only improves the cleaning efficiency but also... The cleaning effect is improved, the cleaning efficiency is further enhanced, and the repetitive labor in the cleaning process is reduced. The arc-shaped acrylic baffle 9 can play a protective role, preventing steam and dust from splashing everywhere during the cleaning process and affecting the surrounding environment and operators. The central handle 10 makes it convenient for operators to hold and operate when the equipment is moved or its position is adjusted. The side handle 12 makes it easy to apply force when pushing the moving frame 11. The moving frame 11 and the base frame 1 are fixed by threaded fasteners 13 and can be separated. Without using the moving frame 11, hand operation can be selected, which makes it convenient to work in a confined space.

[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
