Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water collection device technology, and more specifically, to a water collection device for photovoltaic applications. Background Technology

[0002] Solar energy, as an ideal clean energy source, is now widely used. Solar power generation is a way of utilizing solar energy by directly converting solar energy into electrical energy. The design of photovoltaic panels and water collection tanks allows the photovoltaic panels to rotate according to changes in the angle of sunlight, thereby improving power generation efficiency. At the same time, it can also collect rainwater or washing water on the photovoltaic panels.

[0003] However, in the existing technology, the position of the water collection tank relative to the photovoltaic panel remains fixed. When the photovoltaic panel rotates, its tilt angle changes, and the rotating ends on both sides will be one side up and the other side down. The fluid on the photovoltaic panel will flow down along its tilt angle, which may result in the water flowing down exceeding the water collection range of the water collection tank after the photovoltaic panel rotates to a certain tilt angle. Therefore, the actual water recycling or collection effect is limited. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model provides a water collection device for photovoltaic applications, which solves the problem in the prior art that the water flowing down will exceed the water collection range of the water collection tank after the photovoltaic panel rotates to a certain tilt angle, resulting in limited actual water recovery or collection effect of the water collection device.

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a photovoltaic water collection device. The photovoltaic water collection device includes a photovoltaic module, a water collection component, a transmission component, and a filter component. The photovoltaic module includes a rotatable photovoltaic panel, with two ends of the photovoltaic panel perpendicular to its rotation axis serving as water collection ends. The water collection component includes a water collection tank and a water collection element with a water collection trough. A water collection element is disposed below each water collection end. The water collection trough is connected to the water collection tank to guide fluid collected from the inclined photovoltaic panel into the water collection tank. The photovoltaic panel is connected to the water collection element via the transmission component, so that during the rotation of the photovoltaic panel, at least one side of the water collection element moves towards or away from the photovoltaic panel; or, during the rotation of the photovoltaic panel, at least one side of the water collection element rotates around one end of its extension direction. The filter component includes a filter element detachably disposed within the water collection component to filter fluid flowing from the water collection trough to the water collection tank.

[0006] Furthermore, the water collection assembly also includes a baffle plate disposed on the side of the water collection tank away from the photovoltaic panel, and the extension length of the baffle plate is not less than the extension length of the water collection tank.

[0007] Furthermore, one end of the water collection trough in the extension direction is a transition end connected to the water collection tank, the height of the baffle plate gradually decreases in the direction from the transition end toward the other end of the water collection trough, and / or the top of the baffle plate is an inclined plate segment.

[0008] Furthermore, the photovoltaic module also includes a support rod, which is set in the area surrounded by the water collection tank and the water collection components. The bottom center of the photovoltaic panel is rotatably hinged to the top of the support rod. The water collection component also includes a support plate, which is sleeved on the outer periphery of the support rod and extends to the bottom of the water collection components on both sides. The bottom of the water collection components is set at the end of the support plate and is slidably set along the extension direction of the support plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the water collection assembly also includes a first elastic element and a sliding limiting block fixedly disposed at the bottom of the water collection assembly. Both ends of the support plate have grooves. For any side of the groove, the sliding limiting block is partially disposed in the groove and engages with the inner wall of the groove for limiting. The groove has a limiting rod passing through the sliding limiting block. The first elastic element is sleeved on the outer periphery of the limiting rod and its two ends respectively abut against the end of the groove away from the support rod and the sliding limiting block.

[0010] Furthermore, one end of the water collection trough extending in the direction of extension is a transition end connected to the water collection tank. The position of the transition end relative to the water collection tank is fixed. The support plate is rotatably sleeved on the outer periphery of the support rod so as to drive at least one side of the water collection component to rotate around its transition end during the rotation of the photovoltaic panel.

[0011] Furthermore, two sets of transmission components are provided. The two ends of the photovoltaic panel along the direction perpendicular to its rotation axis are respectively connected to the water collection components on both sides through the two sets of transmission components. The transmission components include a pressing block set below the photovoltaic panel and a force-bearing block set inside the water collection component. The end of the force-bearing block has an upwardly inclined surface and a downwardly inclined surface that are arranged opposite to each other. During the rotation of the photovoltaic panel, the pressing block abuts against one of the upwardly inclined surface and the downwardly inclined surface and pushes the water collection component to move. When the pressing block rotates on the photovoltaic panel in the same rotation direction and abuts against both the upwardly inclined surface and the downwardly inclined surface during the rotation, the water collection component performs reciprocating motion.

[0012] Furthermore, one end of the water collection trough extending in the direction of extension is a transition end that communicates with the water collection tank. The water collection assembly also includes a transition piece disposed at the transition end and communicating with the water collection trough, an installation frame located above the water collection tank, and a transition pipe disposed on the installation frame and communicating with the installation frame. Two transition pipes are disposed on the side of the installation frame away from the water collection tank. The ends of the two transition pipes away from the installation frame are respectively connected to and rotatably connected with two transition pieces disposed at the two transition ends. At least one transition pipe communicating with the water collection tank is disposed on the side of the installation frame facing the water collection tank. The filter element is detachably disposed in the cavity of the installation frame.

[0013] Furthermore, the filter element has a plate-like structure, and the water collection assembly also includes a limiting component disposed on the mounting frame. The filter assembly also includes a sealing plate and a limiting component disposed on the sealing plate. One side of the mounting frame has an installation port, through which the filter element can be inserted or removed from the cavity of the mounting frame. When the filter element is located in the cavity of the mounting frame, the sealing plate blocks the installation port, and the limiting component is detachably connected to the limiting assembly.

[0014] Furthermore, the limiting assembly includes a sliding body, a paddle, and a second elastic element and a positioning element disposed within the sliding body. The positioning element includes a positioning seat that limits and cooperates with the inner wall of the sliding body cavity and a positioning rod located at the bottom of the positioning seat. The side of the sliding body has a paddle groove extending to the mounting frame. The paddle is connected to the outer periphery of the positioning seat and extends out of the paddle groove. The two ends of the second elastic element are fixedly connected to the top of the sliding body cavity and the top of the positioning seat, respectively. The limiting element is pluggable and detachably limited and cooperates with the paddle groove. The limiting element has a locking hole adapted to the positioning rod. When the positioning rod passes through the locking hole, the filter assembly is in the installed state. When the limiting element is separated from the locking hole, the filter assembly is in the detachable state.

[0015] This solution utilizes a water collection trough connected to a collection tank to collect rainwater or washing water sliding off the tilted photovoltaic panels. This facilitates timely recovery and transfer of water from the trough, preventing overflow and water waste. A filter assembly installed between the trough and the collection tank filters the collected rainwater or washing water, simplifying operation and improving water recovery. The filter elements are removable for easy cleaning and replacement. Furthermore, as the photovoltaic panels rotate, the water collection components move with them via a transmission mechanism. This prevents fluid from flowing down the tilted photovoltaic panels at different angles, which could exceed the trough's collection range. The adaptive adjustment of the water collection components with the panel's rotation ensures reliable collection and recovery of fluids flowing at varying angles, thus improving water collection efficiency and overall fluid recovery.

[0027] 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. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the present utility model or its application or use. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a photovoltaic water collection device, which includes a photovoltaic module 100, a water collection component 200, a transmission component 300, and a filter component 400. The photovoltaic module 100 includes a rotatable photovoltaic panel 101, with both ends of the photovoltaic panel 101 perpendicular to its rotation axis serving as water collection ends. The water collection component 200 includes a water collection tank 201 and a water collection element 202 with a water collection trough 2021. A water collection element 202 is provided below each water collection end. The water collection trough 2021 is connected to the water collection tank 201 to collect water from the water collection tank 2021. Fluid collected from the inclined photovoltaic panel 101 is introduced into the water collection tank 201 within 021; the photovoltaic panel 101 is connected to the water collection component 202 via a transmission assembly 300, so that during the rotation of the photovoltaic panel 101, at least one side of the water collection component 202 is moved toward or away from the photovoltaic panel 101; or, during the rotation of the photovoltaic panel 101, at least one side of the water collection component 202 is rotated about one end of its extension direction; the filter assembly 400 includes a filter element detachably disposed within the water collection assembly 200 to filter the fluid flowing from the water collection tank 2021 to the water collection tank 201.

[0029] In this embodiment, a water collection trough 2021, connected to the water collection tank 201, is provided to collect rainwater or cleaning water sliding down from the inclined photovoltaic panel 101. This facilitates the timely recovery and transfer of water in the water collection trough 2021 and prevents water overflow, thus avoiding water waste. A filter assembly 400, installed between the water collection trough 2021 and the water collection tank 201, filters the rainwater or cleaning water collected in the water collection trough 2021. This simplifies the operation of the water collection device and improves the water recovery effect. Furthermore, the filter elements in the filter assembly 400 are detachable, facilitating cleaning and replacement. On the other hand, as the photovoltaic panel 101 rotates, the water collection component 202 also moves under the drive of the transmission component 300. This can prevent the fluid on the photovoltaic panel 101 from flowing down along its tilt angle when the photovoltaic panel 101 rotates and tilts. This would prevent the flowing water from exceeding the water collection range of the water collection tank 2021 after the photovoltaic panel 101 rotates to a certain tilt angle. By adaptively adjusting the water collection component 202 with the rotation of the photovoltaic panel 101, it is beneficial to ensure the reliability of the water collection component 202 in receiving and recovering fluids flowing down at different tilt angles, thereby improving the water collection effect and the actual recovery and collection effect of the fluid.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the water collection assembly 200 also includes a baffle plate 203 disposed on the side of the water collection tank 2021 away from the photovoltaic panel 101. The extension length of the baffle plate 203 is not less than the extension length of the water collection tank 2021. This arrangement allows the baffle plate 203 to stop the fluid flowing down from the tilted photovoltaic panel 101 at a certain angle, preventing the fluid from flowing down the tilted photovoltaic panel 101 during rotation, which could cause a significant change in the tilt angle and result in at least some fluid exceeding the water collection tank 2021 and failing to be collected. This increases the tilt angle that the water collection tank 2021 can accommodate and collect from the photovoltaic panel 101, ensuring the reliability and applicability of the water collection. Preferably, the operator can design the height of the baffle plate 203 according to the actual situation to achieve the desired water-blocking effect.

[0031] Preferably, in this embodiment, the photovoltaic panel 101 is connected to the water collection component 202 via a transmission assembly 300, so that during the rotation of the photovoltaic panel 101, at least one side of the water collection component 202 rotates around one end of its extension direction. The end of the water collection trough 2021 extending in the extension direction is a transition end communicating with the water collection tank 201, the height of the baffle plate 203 gradually decreases in the direction from the transition end toward the other end of the water collection trough 2021, and / or, the top of the baffle plate 203 is an inclined plate segment. In this embodiment, the transition end is the end where the rotation center of the water collector 202 is located. The water collector 202 rotates around the rotation center as the photovoltaic panel 101 rotates. However, the closer the water collector 202 is to the rotation center, the closer it is to the water collection end of the photovoltaic panel 101. The fluid flowing down near the rotation center is more likely to exceed the water collection trough 2021 than the fluid flowing down away from the rotation center (the farther away from the rotation center, the greater the distance between the water collection trough 2021 and the water collection end, which is more conducive to receiving fluids at large angles). By limiting the height of the baffle plate 203, the height of the baffle plate is higher on the side closer to the rotation center to stop the flowing water, so as to avoid the situation where the water collector 202 is less likely to receive fluids on the side closer to the rotation center during rotation when the fluid flows down at the same angle, thus ensuring the reliability and stability of fluid reception. Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the height of the baffle plate 203 gradually decreases in the direction from the transition end toward the other end of the water collection tank 2021, and the top of the baffle plate 203 is an inclined plate segment. The inclined arrangement of the top plate segment of the baffle plate 203 is more conducive to the reception and guidance of the fluid, ensuring the reliability of the fluid blocking and reception.

[0032] like Figure 2As shown, the photovoltaic module 100 also includes a support rod 102, which is disposed in the area surrounded by the water collection tank 201 and the water collection component 202. The bottom center of the photovoltaic panel 101 is rotatably hinged to the top of the support rod 102. The water collection module 200 also includes a support plate 204, which is sleeved on the outer periphery of the support rod 102 and extends to the bottom of the water collection components 202 on both sides. The bottom of the water collection component 202 is disposed at the end of the support plate 204 and is slidably disposed along the extension direction of the support plate 204. The support rod 102 and the support plate 204 provide support for the photovoltaic panel 101 and the water collection component 202, respectively. The bottom of the water collection component 202 is disposed at the end of the support plate 204 and is slidably disposed along the extension direction of the support plate 204, so that the water collection component 202 can move with the rotation of the photovoltaic panel 101 (rotation in this embodiment), thereby improving the reliability, range, applicability, and effect of water collection by the water collection component 202.

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, the water collection assembly 200 also includes a first elastic element 205 and a sliding limiting block 206 fixedly disposed at the bottom of the water collection component 202. Both ends of the support plate 204 have grooves 2041. For any one side of the groove 2041, the sliding limiting block 206 is partially disposed within the groove 2041 and engages with the inner wall of the groove 2041 for limiting. A limiting rod 207 passes through the sliding limiting block 206 within the groove 2041. The first elastic element 205 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the limiting rod 207, with both ends abutting against the ends of the groove 2041 away from the support rod 102 and the sliding limiting block 206, respectively. This arrangement provides guidance and support for the sliding limiting block 206 and the first elastic element 205 through the limiting rod 207, ensuring the reliability of the sliding of the sliding limiting block 206 and the stability of the installation of the first elastic element 205. Specifically, in this embodiment, when the photovoltaic panel 101 rotates, the transmission component 300 on its downward rotating side will push the sliding limit block 206 to move in the slide groove 2041, thereby pushing the water collection component 202 to move (rotate in this embodiment). The first elastic member 205 provides elastic reset support for the movement of the sliding limit block 206 to ensure the reciprocating motion of the sliding limit block 206 and the water collection component 202.

[0034] like Figure 2As shown, the position of the adapter end relative to the water collection tank 201 is fixed, and the support plate 204 is rotatably sleeved on the outer periphery of the support rod 102 so that during the rotation of the photovoltaic panel 101, it drives at least one side of the water collection component 202 to rotate around its adapter end. When at least one side of the water collection component 202 rotates around its adapter end with the rotation of the photovoltaic panel 101, the support plate 204 will rotate with it around the support rod 102 as the rotation center. This avoids the situation where the movement of the sliding limit block 206 and the rotation of the water collection component 202 are restricted and jammed due to the inter-structure limiting fit when the support plate 204 is fixedly sleeved, thus ensuring the reliability of the adjustment of the water collection component 202.

[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, two sets of transmission components 300 are provided. The two ends of the photovoltaic panel 101 along the direction perpendicular to its rotation axis are respectively connected to the water collection components 202 on both sides through the two sets of transmission components 300. The transmission component 300 includes a pressing block 301 disposed below the photovoltaic panel 101 and a force-receiving block 302 disposed inside the water collection component 202. The end of the force-receiving block 302 has an upward inclined surface 3021 and a downward inclined surface 3022 disposed opposite to each other. During the rotation of the photovoltaic panel 101, the pressing block 301 abuts against one of the upward inclined surface 3021 and the downward inclined surface 3022 and pushes the water collection component 202 to move. When the pressing block 301 rotates on the photovoltaic panel 101 in the same rotation direction and abuts against both the upward inclined surface 3021 and the downward inclined surface 3022 during the rotation, the water collection component 202 performs reciprocating motion.

[0036] In this embodiment, when the photovoltaic panel 101 is placed horizontally, the fluid on it flows to the water collection ends on both sides and falls vertically down into the water collection tank 2021 below. When the photovoltaic panel 101 is tilted to one side, most or even all of the fluid flows directly down along the top surface of the photovoltaic panel 101 (not along the water collection end or only a small part of the fluid flows down along the water collection end). As the tilt angle gradually increases, the downward tilting trend of the fluid is more inward. Therefore, the squeezing block 301 on the downward tilting side will first press down on the upward tilting surface 3021 and then abut against the downward tilting surface 3022 (the first elastic element 205 is squeezed first and then provides a reset elastic force for the sliding limit block 206), so that the water collection element 202 tilts outward and then retracts, in order to adapt to the downward tilting trend of the fluid under different rotation angles of the photovoltaic panel 101 and ensure the reliability of water collection. The same applies when the photovoltaic panel 101 rotates from the tilted state back to the horizontal state.

[0037] Preferably, in this embodiment, at least one side of the end of the compression block 301 has an inclined surface. This facilitates cooperation with the force-bearing block 302, reduces frictional loss, and improves the stability of the adjustment between the photovoltaic panel 101 and the water collection component 202.

[0038] like Figure 2 , Figure 4As shown, the water collection assembly 200 also includes a connector 208 disposed at the adapter end and communicating with the water collection tank 2021, a mounting frame 209 located above the water collection tank 201, and a connector 210 disposed on the mounting frame 209 and communicating with the mounting frame 209. Two connectors 210 are disposed on the side of the mounting frame 209 away from the water collection tank 201. The ends of the two connectors 210 away from the mounting frame 209 are respectively connected to and rotatably connected to the two connectors 208 disposed at the two adapter ends. At least one connector 210 communicating with the water collection tank 201 is disposed on the side of the mounting frame 209 facing the water collection tank 201. The filter element is detachably disposed in the cavity of the mounting frame 209. The connection between the adapter 208 and the adapter pipe 210 ensures that the fluid flows smoothly from the water collection tank 2021 to the water collection box 201. The detachable design of the filter element facilitates regular cleaning and replacement, ensuring the filtration effect on the collected fluid, improving the smoothness of the water collection process and the integrity of the water collection device, facilitating the maintenance of the filter element, and improving the working efficiency of the device.

[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, the filter element has a plate-like structure. The water collection assembly 200 also includes a limiting component 211 disposed on the mounting frame 209. The filter assembly 400 also includes a sealing plate 402 and a limiting component 403 disposed on the sealing plate 402. One side of the mounting frame 209 has an installation port, through which the filter element can be inserted or removed from the cavity of the mounting frame 209. When the filter element is located inside the cavity of the mounting frame 209, the sealing plate 402 blocks the installation port, and the limiting component 403 is detachably connected to the limiting component 211. By utilizing the cooperation of the limiting component 211 and the limiting component 403, the accuracy and stability of the filter element's installation position within the mounting frame 209 are ensured, while facilitating the installation and removal of the filter element, improving the maintenance efficiency of the filter element, and reducing the complexity of system maintenance.

[0040] like Figure 5As shown, the limiting assembly 211 includes a sliding piece 2111, a paddle 2112, a second elastic member 2113 and a positioning member 2114 disposed within the sliding piece 2111. The positioning member 2114 includes a positioning seat 21141 that limits and cooperates with the inner wall of the cavity of the sliding piece 2111 and a positioning rod 21142 located at the bottom of the positioning seat 21141. The side of the sliding piece 2111 has a paddle groove 21111 extending to the mounting frame 209. The paddle 2112 is connected to the outer periphery of the positioning seat 21141 and extends out of the paddle groove 21111. The two ends of the second elastic member 2113 are fixedly connected to the top of the cavity of the sliding assembly 2111 and the top of the positioning seat 21141, respectively. The limiting member 403 is pluggably provided and separably limited and engaged with the lever groove 21111. The limiting member 403 has a locking hole 4031 adapted to the positioning rod 21142. When the positioning rod 21142 passes through the locking hole 4031, the filter assembly 400 is in the installed state. When the limiting member 403 is separated from the locking hole 4031, the filter assembly 400 is in the detachable state. By utilizing the cooperation of the positioning rod 21142 and the locking hole 4031, as well as the second elastic member 2113, the quick installation and removal of the filter element are ensured, while maintaining the stable position of the filter element during use. This facilitates the replacement and maintenance of the filter element, shortens the maintenance time of the filter element, and significantly improves the maintenance efficiency of the filter element and reduces the time cost of system maintenance.
