Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic cleaning technology, and more specifically, to a cleaning mechanism for a photovoltaic power generation device. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of photovoltaic power generation, the cleanliness of the photovoltaic panel surface directly affects its photoelectric conversion efficiency. Since photovoltaic panels are usually installed outdoors and exposed to the natural environment for a long time, they will inevitably be contaminated with pollutants such as dust, bird droppings, and leaves. These pollutants will block sunlight, reduce the absorption of light energy by the photovoltaic panel, and thus reduce the power generation.

[0003] Handheld cleaning devices have garnered widespread attention due to their portability. However, existing handheld photovoltaic panel cleaning devices have some shortcomings in their design and use. The replacement and disassembly of the cleaning rollers in some handheld devices are extremely cumbersome, requiring various specialized tools such as screwdrivers and wrenches, increasing maintenance costs and difficulty. Therefore, we propose an improvement to this, creating a cleaning mechanism for photovoltaic power generation devices. Utility Model Content

The connection between the bearing seats 103 and the second support plate 101 and the first support plate 1 is made by bolts. The support rods 102 are welded to the second support plate 101.

[0027] The hook and loop body 112 is an existing component, and its specific structure and the connection and separation operation with the hook and loop body 112 are all existing technologies, which will not be described in detail in this application;

[0028] This application achieves the limitation of the cleaning roller 105 by inserting the rotating shaft 104 into the slot 106. After releasing the connection between the buckle body 112 and the buckle hook 113, the second support plate 101 is pulled away from the first support plate 1 to increase the distance between the two bearing seats 103.

[0032] Furthermore, a driving member is provided at the end of the first support plate 1 away from the second support plate 101. The driving member is connected to one of the rotating shafts 104 to drive the cleaning roller 105 to rotate, thereby cleaning the photovoltaic panel.

[0033] Furthermore, the driving component includes a protective box 2 mounted on the first support plate 1 and a waterproof motor 202. The output shaft of the waterproof motor 202 and one of its rotating shafts 104 extend into the protective box 2 and are connected to a synchronous pulley 203. A synchronous belt 204 is connected between the two synchronous pulleys 203. The synchronous belt 204 and the synchronous pulleys 203 cooperate to transmit the power of the waterproof motor 202 to the corresponding rotating shaft 104.

[0042] During disassembly, disconnect the hook-and-loop fastener body 112 from the hook-and-loop hook 113, then pull the second support plate 101 away from the first support plate 1, so that the slot 106 separates from the shaft 104 and the cleaning roller 105 can be removed. During installation, insert the slot 106 and the shaft 104 together, and insert the second limiting groove 111 and the first limiting protrusion 107 together, and insert the second limiting protrusion 110 and the first limiting groove 108 together. Then fasten the hook-and-loop fastener body 112 and the hook-and-loop hook 113 together.
