Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic module cleaning technology, and in particular to a track-guided snow sweeping robot. Background Technology

[0002] Photovoltaic modules operate outdoors for extended periods, and after heavy snowfall, a layer of snow accumulates on their surface. To avoid affecting the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic modules, it is necessary to clean their surface.

[0003] Chinese Patent CN112564612B discloses a photovoltaic cleaning system and its control method. The photovoltaic cleaning system includes a track, a shuttle vehicle, and a photovoltaic cleaning robot. The shuttle vehicle and the photovoltaic cleaning robot are communicatively connected. The shuttle vehicle includes a first proximity sensing unit, and the photovoltaic cleaning robot includes a second proximity sensing unit. The first proximity sensing unit is used to acquire the location information of the shuttle vehicle, and the shuttle vehicle is also used to transmit the location information of the shuttle vehicle to the photovoltaic cleaning robot. The second proximity sensing unit is used to acquire the docking status information of the photovoltaic cleaning robot, and the photovoltaic cleaning robot is also used to transmit its docking status information to the shuttle vehicle. Both the shuttle vehicle and the photovoltaic cleaning robot operate based on the location information of the shuttle vehicle and the docking status information of the photovoltaic cleaning robot, transporting the photovoltaic cleaning robot to the photovoltaic panels for cleaning.

[0004] The shortcomings of the above-mentioned existing technical solutions are: the shuttle car is laid on the side of the photovoltaic array and there is a certain distance between it and the photovoltaic panel. If the running bridge between the shuttle car and the photovoltaic panel is unreliable, the cleaning robot will get stuck or even fall off during the process of moving from the shuttle car to the photovoltaic panel, which will seriously affect the cleaning efficiency.

[0021] 1. In use, this utility model uses a drive mechanism to transport the entire device to a predetermined position. The drive components one and two of the docking mechanism can drive the cleaning mechanism and the docking mechanism to move between the photovoltaic panels. When the cleaning mechanism needs to move from the shuttle car to the photovoltaic panel, a sliding block is fixedly connected to the mounting plate of the docking mechanism.

[0029] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below, but it should be understood that the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, the present invention provides a track-mounted snow-sweeping robot, comprising: a track 1, a supporting mechanism 4, a docking mechanism 6, and a cleaning mechanism 5. A driving mechanism 2 is mounted on the track 1, and a fixed bracket 3 is fixedly connected to the driving mechanism 2. The supporting mechanism 4 is mounted on the fixed bracket 3 and includes a supporting base plate 41. A mounting plate 43 is mounted on the supporting base plate 41, with one end of the mounting plate 43 rotatably connected to the supporting base plate 41 and the other end of the mounting plate 43 having a receiving component. A supporting frame 46 is mounted on the mounting plate 43. The docking mechanism 6 includes a second mounting plate 61, with a mounting strip 62 fixedly connected to the second mounting plate 61. A driving component 1 is mounted at one end of the mounting strip 62, and a driving component 2 is mounted at the other end of the mounting strip 62. A sliding block 610 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 61. A telescopic component is provided on the sliding block 610. A docking block 69 is provided on the telescopic end of the telescopic component. The sliding block 610 is slidably mounted on the receiving component. The cleaning mechanism 5 is mounted on the mounting strip 62 and the supporting base 46. The telescopic component can drive the docking block 69 to pre-align with the receiving component on the photovoltaic panel. When the docking block 69 cannot align with the receiving component on the photovoltaic panel, it indicates that the photovoltaic panel has shifted. The cleaning mechanism 5 and the docking mechanism 6 return to the supporting mechanism 4 along the original path. The driving mechanism 2 moves to clean the next row of photovoltaic panels. This can effectively prevent the cleaning mechanism 5 from getting stuck due to the displacement of the photovoltaic panels when the photovoltaic panels are moved.

[0031] In some specific embodiments, the drive mechanism 2 and the fixed bracket 3 together constitute a shuttle vehicle.

[0032] Two mounting side plates 42 are symmetrically arranged and fixedly connected on the supporting base plate 41. Bearings are embedded on the end faces of both mounting side plates 42, and the outer rings of the bearings are fixedly connected to the mounting side plates 42. Both ends of the mounting plate 43 are fixedly connected to rotating shafts, which are sleeved and fixedly connected to the inner rings of the bearings. The supporting base plate 41 is provided with a lifting assembly for driving the mounting plate 43 to rotate relative to the supporting base plate 41. The lifting assembly includes a hydraulic cylinder, a first connecting end, and a second connecting end. The hydraulic cylinder is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 43 through the first connecting end and to the supporting base plate 41 through the second connecting end. Through the above arrangement, the lifting assembly can control the tilt of the mounting plate 43, which facilitates the docking of the cleaning mechanism 5 and the docking mechanism 6 with the tilted photovoltaic panel, thereby facilitating the overall displacement of the cleaning mechanism 5 and the docking mechanism 6 on the supporting mechanism 4 and the photovoltaic panel.

[0033] The receiving component includes a limiting strip 44 and a connecting strip 46. The limiting strip 44 is fixedly connected to the side end face of the mounting plate 43. A limiting groove 45 is formed on the side end face of the limiting strip 44 away from the mounting plate 43. The cleaning mechanism 5 includes a snow sweeping robot body 51 and a support member 52. The support member 52 is fixedly connected to the snow sweeping robot body 51. The snow sweeping robot body 51 is fixedly connected to the mounting strip 62. A pulley is rotatably connected to the support member 52. The pulley is set on the supporting base frame 46. With the above arrangement, and in conjunction with the sliding block 610 slidingly set on the receiving component, it is beneficial to improve the stability of the cleaning mechanism 5 when moving.

[0034] Drive assembly one includes drive wheel one 63 and drive motor one 64. Drive motor one 64 is fixedly connected to the mounting strip 62. Drive shaft one is fixedly connected to the drive end of drive motor one 64. Drive wheel one 63 is fixedly connected to drive shaft one. Drive assembly two includes drive wheel two 65 and drive motor two 66. Drive motor two 66 is fixedly connected to the mounting strip 62. Drive shaft two is fixedly connected to the drive end of drive motor two 66. Drive wheel two 65 is fixedly connected to drive shaft two. Drive wheel one 63 and drive wheel two 65 are both set on the limiting strip 44. Drive assembly one and drive assembly two can drive the cleaning mechanism 5 and docking mechanism 6 to move as a whole between photovoltaic panels.

[0035] The telescopic assembly includes an electric push rod 67 and a telescopic rod 68. The electric push rod 67 is fixedly connected to the sliding block 610, the telescopic rod 68 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the electric push rod 67, and the docking block 69 is fixedly connected to the telescopic rod 68.

[0036] In some specific embodiments, the fixed bracket 3 is provided with a lifting mechanism for driving the support mechanism 4 to rise and fall. The lifting mechanism includes a cylinder and a telescopic sleeve. The cylinder is used to adjust the height of the support mechanism 4. An air compressor for providing compressed air to the cylinder is fixedly installed on the fixed bracket 3. The telescopic sleeve is arranged around the bottom surface of the support mechanism 4 to improve the stability of the support mechanism 4 during the lifting process.

[0037] In some specific embodiments, the drive mechanism 2 is a track-driven trolley, which is mounted on track 1.

[0038] In some specific embodiments, one end of the photovoltaic panel is provided with a receiving component corresponding to the receiving component on the mounting plate 43, and the other end of the photovoltaic panel is provided with a supporting frame 46 corresponding to the supporting base 46 on the mounting plate 43.

[0039] To facilitate understanding of the embodiments of this solution by those skilled in the art, the working principle of this solution will now be briefly explained in conjunction with specific application scenarios:

[0040] In use, the entire device is transported to a predetermined position by the drive mechanism 2. The drive components 1 and 2 of the docking mechanism 6 can drive the cleaning mechanism 5 and the docking mechanism 6 to move between the photovoltaic panels. When the cleaning mechanism 5 needs to move from the shuttle vehicle to the photovoltaic panel, a sliding block 610 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 2 61 of the docking mechanism 6. The sliding block 610 is equipped with a telescopic component, and a docking block 69 is provided on the telescopic end of the telescopic component. The telescopic component can drive the docking block 69 to pre-align with the receiving component on the photovoltaic panel. When the docking block 69 cannot align with the receiving component on the photovoltaic panel, it indicates that the photovoltaic panel has shifted. The cleaning mechanism 5 and the docking mechanism 6 return along the original path to the support mechanism 4, and are then moved by the drive mechanism 2. The cleaning of the next row of photovoltaic panels effectively prevents the cleaning mechanism 5 from getting stuck due to the displacement of the photovoltaic panels when they move, ensuring the working efficiency of the device. The support mechanism 4 includes a support base plate 41, on which a mounting plate 43 is provided. One end of the mounting plate 43 is rotatably connected to the support base plate 41. The support base plate 41 is provided with a lifting component for driving the mounting plate 43 to rotate relative to the support base plate 41. The tilt of the mounting plate 43 can be controlled by the lifting component, and the height of the mounting plate 43 can be controlled by the lifting mechanism, which facilitates the docking of the cleaning mechanism 5 and the docking mechanism 6 with the tilted photovoltaic panels, thereby facilitating the movement of the cleaning mechanism 5 and the docking mechanism 6 as a whole on the support mechanism 4 and the photovoltaic panels.

[0041] The above-disclosed embodiments are only a few specific examples of the present utility model. However, the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited thereto. Any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
