Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of charging pile technology, specifically to a photovoltaic deployment mechanism for charging piles. Background Technology

[0002] As the number of electric vehicles on the market increases, charging stations, as supporting charging equipment for electric vehicles, are also becoming more and more common. To comprehensively utilize clean energy, some existing charging stations have already installed photovoltaic (PV) panels. These PV panels convert solar energy into electrical energy, which is then stored in batteries. Currently, PV panels are generally fixedly installed on top of the charging station. However, the installation direction may vary between different charging stations, and since the power generation efficiency of PV panels is related to the angle of sunlight, this means that the PV panels may not achieve optimal power generation efficiency at different times and locations. Some existing technologies incorporate unfolding mechanisms on the charging station to adjust the angle of the PV panels, but maintaining the stability of the panels after adjustment is difficult, thus requiring improvement.

[0016] The present invention will be further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. These embodiments are implemented under the premise of the technical solution of the present invention. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0017] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a photovoltaic deployment mechanism for a charging pile, including multiple support columns 2 disposed on the upper side of the charging pile body 1, preferably four columns 2, respectively disposed at the four corners of the upper side of the charging pile body 1. A base plate 3 is fixed to the upper end of the support column 2, and a rotating shaft 4 is connected to the middle of the base plate 3 by a bearing. Specifically, a clearance hole is provided in the middle of the base plate 3, and a bearing seat 5 is bolted to the upper side of the base plate 3 outside the clearance hole. A bearing is provided inside the bearing seat 5, and the rotating shaft 4 is fixed in the inner ring of the bearing and can rotate freely relative to the base plate 3. The lower end of the rotating shaft 4 is connected to a horizontal adjustment mechanism, which can control the rotation of the rotating shaft 4. A connecting seat 6 is fixed to the upper end of the rotating shaft 4, and the upper front end of the connecting seat 6 is rotatably connected to the front end of the mounting seat 7. A photovoltaic panel 8 is disposed on the upper side of the mounting seat 7, and a tilt adjustment mechanism is provided between the lower side of the mounting seat 7 and the connecting seat 6, which can control the tilt angle of the mounting seat 7 and the photovoltaic panel 8.

[0018] The horizontal adjustment mechanism of this utility model embodiment includes a worm gear drive 9 and a motor 10. Preferably, the motor 10 is a waterproof motor. The worm gear drive 9 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating shaft 4, and the motor 10 is fixedly connected to the worm gear drive 9. Specifically, the worm gear drive 9 includes a housing, a worm wheel and a worm rotatably mounted on the housing. The worm wheel and worm are meshed together. The rotating shaft of the motor 10 is fixedly connected to one end of the worm. The motor 10 drives the worm to rotate, which in turn drives the worm wheel to rotate. The worm wheel is connected to the rotating shaft 4, and thus, under the transmission action of the worm gear drive 9, the motor 10 drives the rotating shaft 4 to rotate. To prevent the power cord of the motor 10 from becoming tangled, the rotation angle of the rotating shaft 4 can be limited to a set angle range, such as within 180°, using an encoder or position sensor. The lower ends of both the worm gear drive 9 and the motor 10 are fixed to the upper side of the charging pile body 1.

[0019] The connecting seat 6 of this utility model embodiment is preferably T-shaped, with a groove 61 on the upper rear end. The aforementioned pitch adjustment mechanism includes a first connecting rod 11 fixed in the groove 61, a hinge seat 12 fixed on the lower side of the mounting base 7, and an electric push rod 13. A second connecting rod 14 is fixed on the hinge seat 12. Through holes are respectively provided at the upper and lower ends of the electric push rod 13. The second connecting rod 14 and the first connecting rod 11 are inserted through the through holes, thereby making the upper and lower ends of the electric push rod 13 hinged to the mounting base 7 and the connecting seat 6, respectively. When the electric push rod 13 is extended, it can push the photovoltaic panel 8 to rotate upward, increasing its angle with the horizontal plane; when the electric push rod 13 is retracted, it can push the photovoltaic panel 8 to rotate downward, decreasing its angle with the horizontal plane.

[0020] To facilitate the mounting base 7 being placed on the connecting base 6, a connecting hole is preferably provided laterally on the upper front side of the connecting base 6. A third connecting rod 15 is inserted into the connecting hole. Multiple slots 16 are located on the upper front side of the connecting base 6. Connecting blocks 17 are provided on both sides of the connecting base 6 and within the slots 16. Each connecting block 17 has an insertion hole for the third connecting rod 15 to pass through, allowing the connecting block 17 to rotate freely relative to the third connecting rod 15 within the slots 16. The connecting blocks 17 are fixedly connected to the lower side of the mounting base 7. Preferably, the connecting blocks 17 are L-shaped, with the portion extending to the lower side of the mounting base 7 providing support. Both ends of the third connecting rod 15 can be threaded with a limiting nut 20 to limit its movement and prevent it from coming out of the connecting hole.

[0021] To facilitate fixing the connecting seat 6 to the rotating shaft 4, a connecting flange 18 is provided at the upper end of the rotating shaft 4, and a threaded hole or mounting through hole that mates with the connecting flange 18 is provided on the lower side of the connecting seat 6, thereby fixing the connecting flange 18 and the connecting seat 6 together with multiple bolts.

[0022] To facilitate the installation of the photovoltaic panel 8 on the mounting base 7, a mounting groove is provided on the upper side of the mounting base 7. A frame 19 is detachably and fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the mounting groove. Specifically, the frame 19 can be fixed to the mounting base 7 by bolts or clips. The photovoltaic panel 8 is placed between the mounting groove and the frame 19. To prevent damage to the photovoltaic panel 8, a buffer pad can be placed between the frame 19 and the photovoltaic panel 8.

[0023] In addition, the aforementioned motor 10 and electric push rod 13 are each connected to a controller, which can be a microcontroller. During transportation, the electric push rod 13 can be controlled to be in a retracted state, thereby lowering the height of the upper end of the photovoltaic panel 8. In use, the angle of the photovoltaic panel 8 can be set for different dates and times via the controller, or multiple light sensors can be used to collect the direction of light. The controller controls the horizontal adjustment mechanism and the tilt adjustment mechanism according to the set angle or light direction, so that the photovoltaic panel 8 is maintained at an angle for efficient power generation. Since this application uses the electric push rod 13 to control the tilt angle of the photovoltaic panel 8 and transmits the power through the worm gear drive 9, the good self-locking characteristics of the electric push rod 13 and the worm gear drive 9 are utilized to maintain good stability after angle adjustment.

[0024] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, other parts not specifically described are existing technology or common knowledge. Several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
