Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0023] Example: This example provides a plate solar collector, see [link to example]. Figure 1-4 Specifically, it includes a collector body 1 and a base 5. A brush 11 is provided on one side of the collector body 1. A power assembly for driving the brush 11 is provided on one side of the collector body 1. A pair of gears 2 and a toothed belt 21 are provided in the power assembly. The pair of gears 2 are rotatably arranged on one side of the collector body 1. The toothed belt 21 is sleeved on the pair of gears 2 and meshes with the pair of gears 2. A limiting assembly for limiting the movement trajectory of the brush 11 is provided on one side of the collector body 1. A connecting assembly for connecting the collector body 1 and an adjusting assembly for adjusting the tilt angle of the collector body 1 are provided on the top of the base 5.

[0024] The power component drives the brush 11 to move, and the limiting component restricts the brush 11 to move along the surface of the collector body 1. The brush 11 moves from the top to the bottom of the collector body 1 to sweep away the dust on the surface of the collector body 1, thus cleaning the surface of the collector body 1 and ensuring the absorption efficiency of solar radiation by the collector body 1. The adjustment component can adjust the tilt angle of the collector body 1, so that the collector body 1 can be adjusted according to the different angles of sunlight in different regions, making the device widely applicable and further improving the absorption efficiency of solar radiation by the collector body 1.

[0025] The power assembly includes a fixed frame 22 and a motor 23. The fixed frame 22 is fixedly installed on one side of the collector body 1, and the motor 23 is fixedly installed on the fixed frame 22. The output shaft of the motor 23 is fixedly connected to a gear 2. The limiting assembly includes a pair of sliding grooves 3, a pair of sliders 31 and a fixed plate 32. The pair of sliding grooves 3 are all opened on the side of the collector body 1. The pair of sliders 31 are respectively slidably installed in the pair of sliding grooves 3. The pair of sliders 31 are fixedly connected to the brush 11. The fixed plate 32 is fixedly installed on the toothed belt 21 and is slidably connected to a slider 31.

[0026] Motor 23 drives one gear 2 to rotate, and one gear 2 drives another gear 2 to rotate through toothed belt 21. Toothed belt 21 drives slider 31 to move through fixed plate 32. Slider 31 drives brush 11 to move along the surface of collector body 1 under the restriction of slide groove 3. Brush 11 moves from the upper end to the lower end of collector body 1 to sweep the dust off the surface of collector body 1. The dust falls down the collector body 1 to the ground.

[0027] Three fixing rods 4 are provided below the collector body 1;

[0028] When the brush 11 moves to the back of the collector body 1, the brush 11 moves from bottom to top. When the soft bristles on the brush 11 come into contact with the three fixing rods 4 in turn, the soft bristles bend and deform. After passing the fixing rods 4, the soft bristles on the brush 11 quickly return to their original state. During this process, the dust on the soft bristles is shaken off, ensuring the cleanliness of the brush 11 and preventing the brush 11 from bringing the dust back to the front of the collector body 1.

[0029] The connecting assembly includes a pair of short plates 51, a pair of long plates 52, and a pair of connecting plates 53. The pair of short plates 51 are fixedly mounted on the base 5, the pair of long plates 52 are rotatably mounted on the base 5, and the pair of connecting plates 53 are rotatably mounted on the side of the collector body 1. The adjusting assembly includes multiple round holes 6, two pairs of bolts 61, and two pairs of nuts 62. The multiple round holes 6 are respectively opened on the pair of connecting plates 53. The two pairs of bolts 61 respectively pass through the pair of long plates 52 and are inserted into the round holes 6. The two pairs of nuts 62 are respectively threaded on the two pairs of bolts 61.

[0030] Separate the long plate 52 and the connecting plate 53, rotate the collector body 1, and adjust the angle of the long plate 52 and the connecting plate 53 accordingly. Insert the bolt 61 through the long plate 52 into the corresponding round hole 6 on the connecting plate 53, tighten the bolt 61 with the nut 62, and fix the long plate 52 and the connecting plate 53 together. Fix the tilt angle of the collector body 1 so that the collector body 1 can be adjusted according to the different angles of sunlight in different regions, making the device applicable to a wide range of situations.
