Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic panel production technology, and in particular to a cleaning device for photovoltaic panel production. Background Technology
[0002] Against the backdrop of a global push for energy structure transformation, the photovoltaic (PV) industry has rapidly emerged as a crucial pillar of the new energy sector due to its clean, pollution-free, and sustainable characteristics. As more and more countries incorporate PV power generation into their energy development strategies, the PV market continues to expand, placing higher demands on the production efficiency and quality control of PV panels. As a key link in the PV panel production process, technological innovation in cleaning processes has become a core driving force for ensuring product quality and enhancing industrial competitiveness. The cleanliness of the PV panel surface directly affects its power generation performance and lifespan. During production, PV panels are highly susceptible to various contaminants, from fine dust particles to stubborn oil stains and metal shavings. These impurities not only block light and reduce the PV panel's solar energy absorption efficiency but also cause localized overheating, accelerate module aging, and seriously affect the overall performance and reliability of the PV panel. Therefore, achieving refined and deep cleaning of PV panels has become a necessary prerequisite for ensuring their efficient and stable power generation.
[0003] The structure of a cleaning device for photovoltaic panel production includes a cleaning chamber, a conveying system, a cleaning system, a drying system, a control system, and a frame. Traditional photovoltaic panel cleaning methods are no longer suitable for the needs of modern large-scale production. Manual cleaning is not only inefficient and reliant on workers' experience and physical strength, but it is also prone to damage to the panel surface due to improper operation. Existing technologies, by integrating advanced technologies such as high-pressure atomization, ultrasonic cavitation, and precise scrubbing by robotic arms, significantly shorten cleaning time and improve cleaning quality. This not only meets the needs of the rapid development of the photovoltaic industry, but also lays a solid foundation for the sustainable development of the industry. However, in the production of photovoltaic panels, both the front and back surfaces are contaminated with dust, oil, and debris. These impurities reduce the photovoltaic panel's absorption efficiency of sunlight and affect its power generation performance. Utility Model Content

[0041] Working principle: After the photovoltaic panel 11 is placed on the top left side of the conveyor belt 5, the rotating shaft 4 is driven by the motor 7 to rotate, thereby driving the conveyor belt 5 to move. While moving, the photovoltaic panel 11 is cleaned. When it reaches the middle, the baffle 14 will block the photovoltaic panel 11. At this time, the rotating disc 9 is driven by the motor 8, which in turn drives the rotating adjustment plate 10. Then, the short column 12 on the front side of the photovoltaic panel 11 is engaged by the groove on the top left side of the adjustment plate 10, and the photovoltaic panel 11 is flipped. Then the conveyor continues to clean the other side of the photovoltaic panel 11. This can achieve a comprehensive cleaning of both sides of the photovoltaic panel, ensuring that the stains on both sides of the photovoltaic panel are effectively removed. This avoids the decrease in power generation efficiency caused by incomplete cleaning or omissions on one side, ensuring that the photovoltaic panel is put into use in the best condition and improving its photoelectric conversion efficiency.
[0042] After the photovoltaic panel 11 is cleaned, it is conveyed to the groove on the right side of the adjacent side of the baffle 13. At this time, the photovoltaic panel 11 is engaged with the groove by the short column 12 on the rear side. The short column 12 on the front side of the photovoltaic panel 11 is blocked by the left side of the fixing plate 203, achieving a suspension effect. By removing the fixing of the bolt 205, the L-shaped buckle 204 is lowered, so that the L-shaped buckle 204 engages with the hole 206, achieving the effect of fixing the photovoltaic panel 11. Finally, the drying effect is achieved by the dryer 202 at the top of the bracket 201, which can quickly remove the moisture from all parts of the panel, improve the drying efficiency, and avoid corrosion of the panel surface due to residual moisture, which would affect the performance and service life of the photovoltaic panel.
