[0014] Beneficial effects

[0015] This utility model provides an integrated machine for cleaning and grinding the surface of photovoltaic panels. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages:

[0016] 1. This photovoltaic panel surface cleaning and grinding integrated machine is designed with an adjustment unit. When switching between grinding and brushing processing modes, simply pull out the pin to unlock, rotate the locking rod to drive the worm gear, and rely on the meshing transmission between the worm gear and the worm wheel to quickly interchange the positions of the grinding wheel and the brush plate, thus completing the switching of processing modes.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: an integrated machine for cleaning and polishing the surface of photovoltaic panels, specifically including the following embodiments:

[0026] Example 1: A photovoltaic panel surface cleaning and polishing integrated machine includes a workbench 1, a telescopic frame 2 horizontally arranged at the rear of the workbench 1, a telescopic frame 3 vertically arranged at the end of the telescopic frame 2, and a drive motor 4 installed at the lower end of the telescopic frame 3. It also includes:

[0027] The gantry linkage 5 is fixed to the end of the drive shaft of the drive motor 4. When the drive motor 4 starts, the drive shaft drives the gantry linkage 5 to rotate, providing rotational power for subsequent components.

[0028] The grinding wheel 6 and the cleaning brush plate 7 are fixed to each other, and the two ends of the grinding wheel 6 are rotatably connected to the gate-shaped connecting rod 5 through shafts. When the gate-shaped connecting rod 5 rotates, it drives the grinding wheel 6 to rotate through the shaft. Since the grinding wheel 6 and the cleaning brush plate 7 are fixed to each other, the cleaning brush plate 7 also rotates. If it is in the grinding mode, the grinding wheel 6 performs grinding operations on the photovoltaic panel; if it is in the cleaning mode, the cleaning brush plate 7 performs cleaning operations on the photovoltaic panel.

[0029] Adjustment unit 8 is located on one side of the gantry linkage 5 and connected to the shaft end of the grinding wheel 6. By driving adjustment unit 8, the grinding wheel 6 and the cleaning brush plate 7 are rotated, and the grinding wheel 6 and the cleaning brush plate 7 complete the processing switch. When it is necessary to change the processing mode, the adjustment unit 8 is operated, and the adjustment unit 8 drives the shaft of the grinding wheel 6 to rotate. Since the grinding wheel 6 and the cleaning brush plate 7 are fixedly connected, they rotate together to realize the switching between grinding and cleaning modes.

[0030] Example 2: The main difference between this example and the first technical solution is that: a photovoltaic panel surface cleaning and polishing integrated machine, the adjustment unit 8 includes a worm gear 81 connected to the shaft end of the polishing wheel 6, and a housing 82 is fixed to one side of the portal linkage 5. Inside the housing 82, a worm 83 is rotatably arranged to mesh with the worm gear 81. The top end of the worm 83 extends to the outside of the housing 82 and is connected to a locking rod 84. A locking rod sleeve 85 is fixed to the side wall of the portal linkage 5 and sleeved outside the locking rod 84. The locking rod sleeve 85 and the locking rod 84 are provided with holes for the insertion of pins. Pin hole; When it is necessary to switch the processing mode, first pull out the pin to release the lock rod 84, rotate the lock rod 84, the lock rod 84 drives the worm 83 to rotate, the worm 83 meshes with the worm wheel 81 to drive the worm wheel 81 to rotate. Since the worm wheel 81 is connected to the shaft end of the grinding wheel 6, it drives the shaft of the grinding wheel 6 to rotate, realizing the position exchange of the grinding wheel 6 and the cleaning brush plate 7, and completing the processing mode switch; After the switch is completed, insert the pin into the pin hole of the lock rod sleeve 85 and the lock rod 84 to lock the adjustment unit 8 and prevent its position from changing during operation.

[0031] A positioning unit 9 is provided on the side of the gantry linkage 5 opposite to the adjustment unit 8. The positioning unit 9 includes a vertical rod 91 connected to the shaft end of the grinding wheel 6, and a rubber sleeve is fixed to the outside of the vertical rod 91. An arc-shaped groove block 92 for the vertical rod 91 to be squeezed and fitted is fixed on the side of the gantry linkage 5 near the vertical rod 91. During the process of switching the processing mode by rotating the shaft of the grinding wheel 6 driven by the adjustment unit 8, the vertical rod 91 rotates with the shaft of the grinding wheel 6. When it is switched to the appropriate position, the rubber sleeve on the outside of the vertical rod 91 is squeezed and fitted into the arc-shaped groove block 92 to accurately position and stabilize the adjusted position, ensuring that the grinding wheel 6 and the cleaning brush plate 7 are in the accurate working position.

[0032] The telescopic frame 2 is equipped with a rinsing mechanism 10 for washing the photovoltaic panels at the rear. The upper sides of the workbench 1 are equipped with clamping mechanisms 11 for clamping the photovoltaic panels. First, the photovoltaic panels are fixed on the workbench 1 by the clamping mechanisms 11 to ensure that the photovoltaic panels are stable in position during the cleaning and grinding process. After the grinding or brushing operation is completed, the rinsing mechanism 10 is activated to wash the surface of the photovoltaic panels with water to wash away the debris, dust and other impurities generated during the grinding or brushing process.

[0033] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.

[0034] During operation, the photovoltaic panel to be cleaned and polished is placed on the workbench 1. The photovoltaic panel is clamped by the clamping mechanism 11 set on both sides of the upper part of the workbench 1. The clamping mechanism 11 is driven by the opposing cylinders on both sides to clamp the panel. After ensuring that the position of the photovoltaic panel is stable during the cleaning and polishing process, the telescopic frame 2 is operated according to the position and height requirements of the photovoltaic panel to extend and retract horizontally to a suitable position to adjust the horizontal distance between the overall working device and the photovoltaic panel. Then, the telescopic frame 3 is operated to extend and retract vertically to a suitable height so that the drive motor 4 installed at its lower end and the subsequent working parts are at a suitable height position for working on the photovoltaic panel.

[0035] When switching between grinding and cleaning modes, if the current mode is locked, first pull the pin out of the pin hole on the locking rod sleeve 85 and the locking rod 84 to release the lock on the worm 83. Then rotate the locking rod 84 to drive the worm 83 in the adjusting unit 8 to rotate. Since the worm 83 and the worm wheel 81 are meshed and driven, and the worm wheel 81 is connected to the shaft end of the grinding wheel 6, the rotation of the worm 83 drives the worm wheel 81 to rotate, which in turn drives the shaft of the grinding wheel 6 to rotate. The grinding wheel 6 and the cleaning plate 7 are fixed to each other, and the two ends of the grinding wheel 6 are connected to the gate-type connecting rod 5 through the shaft rotation. Therefore, the rotation of the shaft of the grinding wheel 6 drives the grinding wheel 6 and the cleaning plate 7 to rotate, realizing the interchange of the positions of the grinding wheel 6 and the cleaning plate 7, and completing the processing switch.

[0036] After the switching is completed, the locking rod 84 is rotated to the corresponding position so that the locking rod sleeve 85 and the pin hole on the locking rod 84 are aligned. The pin is inserted to lock, ensuring that the position of the adjustment unit 8 is stable during the processing.

[0037] In addition, during the adjustment process, the positioning unit 9 plays a role. The vertical rod 91 connected to the shaft end of the grinding wheel 6 rotates with the shaft of the grinding wheel 6. When switched to the appropriate position, the rubber sleeve fixed on the outside of the vertical rod 91 is squeezed and fitted into the arc-shaped groove block 92 fixed on one side of the portal linkage 5, which plays an auxiliary positioning role.

[0038] If the current mode is switched to polishing mode, the drive motor 4 starts and drives the gantry linkage 5 to rotate through the power shaft, which in turn drives the polishing wheel 6 connected to it to rotate, polishing the surface of the photovoltaic panel and repairing defects such as wear and scratches on the surface of the photovoltaic panel.

[0039] If the cleaning mode is switched, the drive motor 4 drives the cleaning plate 7 to rotate, and the cleaning plate 7 cleans the surface of the photovoltaic panel to remove dust, debris and other impurities.

[0040] After the grinding or cleaning operation is completed, the flushing mechanism 10 installed at the rear of the telescopic frame 2 3 is activated. The flushing mechanism 10 washes the photovoltaic panel with water, washing away the debris, dust and other impurities generated during the grinding or cleaning process, making the surface of the photovoltaic panel cleaner.

[0041] The entire workflow achieves cleaning and polishing of the photovoltaic panel surface through the coordinated operation of various components, and allows for convenient and quick switching between polishing and brushing processing modes.
