Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic power plant operation and maintenance technology, and in particular to an auxiliary maintenance equipment for photovoltaic power plant operation and maintenance. Background Technology

[0002] Auxiliary maintenance equipment for photovoltaic (PV) power plant operation and maintenance (O&M) is primarily used to assist O&M personnel in equipment inspection and maintenance. In the vast and complex environments of PV power plants, it allows O&M personnel to easily access various maintenance tools and power supply, enabling them to quickly reach the equipment requiring maintenance and begin work. Through this equipment, O&M personnel can efficiently manage and access tools, while simultaneously utilizing the power supply to power the relevant maintenance equipment, ensuring the stable operation of the PV power plant. Currently, the practical application of this device typically requires the following technologies:

[0003] 1. The reasonable and sturdy box structure design ensures that the tools inside the tool storage box will not shake or be damaged during the movement of the tool storage box;

[0004] 2. Efficient power management structure ensures stable power supply for rechargeable and discharging batteries;

[0005] 3. The flexible steering structure allows the casters to precisely control the direction of movement of the manual trolley.

[0006] Currently, various equipment and methods are used to achieve auxiliary maintenance functions for photovoltaic power plants. Some use ordinary toolboxes, which are manually transported to the work site, with tools categorized and placed in different compartments. Others use simple trolleys, placing the toolbox and power supply in different positions on the trolley and pushing it to the required location. Some use more integrated trolleys, combining the toolbox and power supply together, but the storage space and retrieval methods are still relatively traditional.

[0007] However, the above method has a prominent hardware structural problem: the storage and retrieval structure of the tool storage boxes is not convenient or visible in actual use. For example, multiple storage boxes may obstruct each other when pulled out, affecting access to and observation of tools below. Furthermore, the opening method is not flexible or efficient enough, resulting in longer time for maintenance personnel to retrieve tools and reducing the efficiency of maintenance work. Summary of the Invention

[0008] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an auxiliary maintenance device for photovoltaic power plant operation and maintenance, solving the problems of poor convenience and visibility in the storage and retrieval structure of tool storage boxes during actual use. For example, multiple storage boxes may obstruct each other when pulled out, affecting the retrieval and observation of tools on the lower level, and the opening method is not flexible and efficient enough, resulting in long time consumption for maintenance personnel to retrieve tools and reducing the efficiency of maintenance work.

[0009] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0010] An auxiliary maintenance device for photovoltaic power plant operation and maintenance includes a tool storage box. A first storage box is slidably connected inside the tool storage box. A second storage box is provided at the upper end of the tool storage box. A box cover is rotatably connected inside the second storage box. A rectangular connecting rod is rotatably connected inside the tool storage box and the second storage box. A connecting rod assembly is rotatably connected to one end of the tool storage box near the rectangular connecting rod. The connecting rod assembly is rotatably connected inside the tool storage box and the second storage box. The connecting rod assembly is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the box cover.

[0011] Preferably, the tool storage box has an arc-shaped groove inside, and the rectangular connecting rod is rotatably connected inside the arc-shaped groove.

[0012] Preferably, the first storage box has a pull-out groove inside, and the second storage box has a pull-out handle rod fixedly connected to its outer surface.

[0013] Preferably, the tool storage box is equipped with a manual trolley at the lower end, and two box positioning blocks are fixedly connected to the upper end of the manual trolley.

[0014] Preferably, both of the box positioning blocks are located on the outer surface of the tool storage box, and a rechargeable battery is provided at the upper end of the manual trolley near the tool storage box.

[0015] Preferably, a handle is fixedly connected to the upper end of the manual trolley near the rechargeable battery, and a set of casters is provided at the lower end of the manual trolley.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. When the tool storage box is transported to the maintenance work site and the tools stored inside need to be retrieved, the worker holds the pull handle and pushes it away from the first storage box. As the second storage box slides, it pushes the rectangular connecting rod to rotate first. The rectangular connecting rod limits the sliding trajectory of the second storage box, and when the second storage box is pushed to slide, it drives the connecting rod assembly to start rotating. When the connecting rod assembly is rotated and pushed, it pushes the eccentrically rotating box cover to rotate and open. In this pushing method, the storage space inside the tool storage box and the second storage box can be opened in one go. The more stable operation of the first storage box, combined with the flexible opening of the tool storage box and the second storage box, provides a more convenient way to retrieve tools. Moreover, the way the second storage box slides to one end avoids the problem of the tool storage box, the first storage box and the second storage box obstructing each other and affecting visibility.

[0018] Second, by placing a rechargeable battery and a tool storage box on the top of the manual trolley, the tool storage box can store electrical maintenance components, maintenance manual tools, etc., while the rechargeable battery can serve as a mobile power source to provide power to maintenance equipment that requires power. When maintenance personnel push the manual trolley to the maintenance location of the photovoltaic power station, they can quickly obtain various electrical maintenance components and manual tools from the tool storage box, and immediately use the rechargeable battery to power the maintenance equipment that needs power. This allows maintenance personnel to quickly carry out maintenance work, provides reliable auxiliary work for staff, and greatly improves work efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0025] This application provides an auxiliary maintenance device for photovoltaic power plant operation and maintenance, which effectively solves the problem of poor convenience and visibility in the actual use of tool storage boxes due to their storage and retrieval structure. For example, when multiple storage boxes are pulled out, they obstruct each other, affecting access to and observation of tools in the lower compartments. Furthermore, the opening method is not flexible or efficient enough, leading to longer tool retrieval times for maintenance personnel and reducing maintenance efficiency. When the tool storage box is transported to the maintenance work site and the tools stored inside need to be retrieved, the worker holds the pull handle and pushes it away from the first storage box. The sliding of the second storage box causes a rectangular connecting rod to rotate first, limiting the sliding trajectory of the second storage box. As the second storage box is pushed, it causes the connecting rod assembly to rotate, which in turn pushes the eccentrically rotating lid to open. This pushing method allows for the opening of the storage space inside both the tool storage box and the second storage box in a single operation. The more stable operation of the first storage box, combined with the flexible opening of the tool storage box and the second storage box, provides a more convenient way to retrieve tools. Moreover, the sliding displacement of the second storage box avoids the problem of the tool storage box, the first storage box, and the second storage box obstructing each other and affecting visibility.

[0026] Example

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the technical solution in this application embodiment effectively solves the problem of poor convenience and visibility in the storage and retrieval structure of the tool storage box during actual use. For example, when multiple storage boxes are pulled out, they block each other, affecting the retrieval and observation of tools on the lower level. Furthermore, the opening method is not flexible or efficient enough, resulting in long retrieval times for maintenance personnel and reducing the efficiency of maintenance work. The overall concept is as follows: An auxiliary maintenance device for photovoltaic power station operation and maintenance includes a tool storage box 11. A first storage box 12 is slidably connected inside the tool storage box 11. A second storage box 13 is provided at the upper end of the tool storage box 11. A cover 14 is rotatably connected inside the second storage box 13. A rectangular connecting rod 15 is rotatably connected inside the tool storage box 11 and the second storage box 13. Inside the tool storage box 11, near one end of the rectangular connecting rod 15, a connecting rod assembly 16 is rotatably connected. The connecting rod assembly 16 is rotatably connected inside the tool storage box 11 and the second storage box 13, and is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the box cover 14. An arc-shaped groove 17 is formed inside the tool storage box 11, and the rectangular connecting rod 15 is rotatably connected inside the arc-shaped groove 17. A pull-out groove 18 is formed inside the first storage box 12, and a pull-out handle 19 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the second storage box 13. When the tool storage box 11 is pushed and transported to the maintenance work site, and the tools stored inside need to be retrieved and used, the worker holds the pull-out handle 19 to... When the second storage box 13 slides, it pushes the rectangular connecting rod 15 to rotate first, thus defining the sliding trajectory of the second storage box 13. Furthermore, when the second storage box 13 is pushed and slid, it causes the connecting rod assembly 16 to begin rotating. (The connecting rod assembly 16 is composed of two connecting rods, which are rotatably connected. One connecting rod rotates within the tool storage box 11 and the second storage box 13, while the other rotates at the center of the first connecting rod, and its surface, away from the first connecting rod, is rotatably connected to the center of the lid 14.) When the connecting rod assembly 16 is rotated and pushed, it in turn pushes the eccentrically rotating lid 14. 4. The tool storage box 11 and the storage space of the second storage box 13 can be opened in one push by rotating and opening. The first storage box 12 with a more stable operation, together with the flexible opening of the tool storage box 11 and the second storage box 13, provides a more convenient way to take out tools. The sliding displacement of the second storage box 13 to one end avoids the problem of the tool storage box 11, the first storage box 12 and the second storage box 13 blocking each other and affecting visibility. The first storage box 12 needs to be slid out by pressing the pull-out slot 18, which is the most traditional drawer type, and electrical maintenance components can be placed inside.

[0028] A manual trolley 21 is provided at the lower end of the tool storage box 11. Two box positioning blocks 22 are fixedly connected to the upper end of the manual trolley 21. Both box positioning blocks 22 are located on the outer surface of the tool storage box 11. A rechargeable battery 23 is provided at the upper end of the manual trolley 21 near the tool storage box 11. By placing the rechargeable battery 23 and the tool storage box 11 together on the upper end of the manual trolley 21, the tool storage box 11 can store electrical maintenance components, maintenance manual tools, etc. The rechargeable battery 23 can be used as a mobile power source to provide power to some maintenance equipment that needs to use power. When maintenance personnel push the manual trolley 21 to the maintenance location of the photovoltaic power station, they can quickly obtain various electrical maintenance components and manual tools from the tool storage box 11, and immediately use the rechargeable battery 23 to power the maintenance equipment that needs power, enabling maintenance personnel to quickly carry out maintenance work and greatly improving work efficiency.

[0029] A trolley handle 24 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the manual trolley 21 near the rechargeable battery 23. A set of casters 25 is provided at the lower end of the manual trolley 21. In the working environment of a photovoltaic power station, staff often need to perform maintenance and repair operations on the electrical equipment in the photovoltaic power station. When performing maintenance operations, staff hold the trolley handle 24 and push the manual trolley 21 to move as a whole. The manual trolley 21 can move quickly through the set of casters 25 installed at the lower end.

[0030] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides an auxiliary maintenance device for photovoltaic power plant operation and maintenance. When the tool storage box 11 is pushed and transported to the operation and maintenance work site, and it is necessary to retrieve and use the tools stored inside, the worker holds the pull handle 19 and pushes it away from the end of the first storage box 12. When the second storage box 13 slides, it will push the rectangular connecting rod 15 to rotate first. The rectangular connecting rod 15 defines the sliding trajectory of the second storage box 13, and when the second storage box 13 is pushed and slid, it will drive the connecting rod assembly 16 to start rotating. When the lever assembly 16 is rotated and pushed, it will also push the eccentrically rotating box cover 14 to rotate and open. In this way, the storage space inside the tool storage box 11 and the second storage box 13 can be opened in one push. With the more stable operation of the first storage box 12 and the flexible opening of the tool storage box 11 and the second storage box 13, a more convenient way to take out tools is provided. Moreover, the way the second storage box 13 slides to one end avoids the problem of the tool storage box 11, the first storage box 12 and the second storage box 13 blocking each other and affecting visibility.

[0031] Working principle:

[0032] The first step involves the operation and maintenance of electrical equipment within a photovoltaic power station. During this process, workers use the handle 24 to push a manual trolley 21, which is moved quickly via casters 25 mounted on its lower end. A rechargeable battery 23 and a tool storage box 11 are placed on top of the trolley 21. The tool storage box 11 stores electrical repair components and manual tools, while the rechargeable battery 23 acts as a power source, providing power to equipment requiring power. When maintenance personnel push the trolley 21 to the repair location within the photovoltaic power station, they can quickly access various electrical repair components and tools from the tool storage box 11 and immediately use the rechargeable battery 23 to power the equipment. This allows maintenance personnel to rapidly begin repair work, providing reliable support and significantly improving work efficiency.

[0033] The second step involves the tool storage box 11 being transported to the maintenance work site. When the tools stored inside need to be retrieved and used, the worker holds the pull handle 19 and pushes it away from the first storage box 12. As the second storage box 13 slides, it pushes the rectangular connecting rod 15 to rotate first. The rectangular connecting rod 15 defines the sliding trajectory of the second storage box 13, and when the second storage box 13 is pushed and slid, it will cause the connecting rod assembly 16 to start rotating. (The connecting rod assembly 16 is composed of two connecting rods that are rotatably connected. One connecting rod rotates inside the tool storage box 11 and the second storage box 13, while the other rotates at the center of the first connecting rod, and its surface is away from the center of the box cover 14.) (It is rotatably connected). When the linkage assembly 16 is rotated and pushed, it will push the eccentrically rotating box cover 14 to rotate and open. The storage space inside the tool storage box 11 and the second storage box 13 can be opened in one push. The first storage box 12 with a more stable operation mode, together with the flexibly opening tool storage box 11 and the second storage box 13, provides a more convenient way to take out tools. The way the second storage box 13 slides to one end avoids the problem of the tool storage box 11, the first storage box 12 and the second storage box 13 blocking each other and affecting visibility. The first storage box 12 needs to be slid out by pressing the pull-out slot 18, which is the most traditional drawer type, and electrical maintenance components can be placed inside.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
