[0024] Example 1

[0025] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides an embodiment of an adjustable roller brush mechanism for a photovoltaic cleaning robot, comprising: a photovoltaic cleaning robot body 100, with component safety housings 300 on both sides of the photovoltaic cleaning robot body 100, and two component safety housings 300, with a cleaning brush roller 104 disposed between the two component safety housings 300.

[0026] Also includes:

[0027] The inner cavity 301 is installed inside the safety housings 300 of the two components. A hydraulic telescopic rod 303 is provided at the middle position inside the inner cavity 301. A telescopic rod 304 is provided at the upper end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 303. A motor 305 is provided at the upper end of the telescopic rod 304. A reserved moving groove 3001 is provided inside the inner side of the safety housings 300 of the two components. One end of the cleaning brush roller 104 passes through the reserved moving groove 3001 and is installed at the output end of the motor 305.

[0028] In use, the operation signal is transmitted to the signal receiver 200 through the external operating mechanism, so that the height can be effectively adjusted by the hydraulic telescopic rod 303 and telescopic rod 304. This allows the height of the cleaning brush roller 104 to be adjusted synchronously, so that the cleaning brush roller 104 fits more closely to the photovoltaic panel to be cleaned. The rotating cleaning brush roller 104 cleans the deposited impurities and dust, which are then blown away by the external wind, thus achieving the effect of cleaning the surface of the photovoltaic panel.

[0029] Example 2

[0030] Please see Figure 3 The lower side of the inner cavity 301 in both component safety housings 300 is provided with a first servo motor 302, and two sets of the first servo motor 302 are provided. The second servo motor 306 is provided on one side of the inner cavity 301 of one of the two component safety housings 300.

[0031] The arrangement of the first servo motor 302 and the second servo motor 306 can effectively provide rotational kinetic energy for the first clamping roller 101 and the second clamping roller 102.

[0032] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 Both sides of the lower end of the safety housing 300 of the two components are provided with first clamping rollers 101, and one set of first clamping rollers 101 is provided. The inner side of one of the two safety housings 300 is provided with a second clamping roller 102, and two sets of second clamping rollers 102 are provided. The connecting end of the first clamping roller 101 is rotatably connected to the output end of the first servo motor 302, and the connecting end of the second clamping roller 102 is rotatably connected to the output end of the second servo motor 306.

[0033] Please see Figure 4 The outer walls of the two sets of second clamping rollers 102 and the set of first clamping rollers 101 are provided with anti-slip sleeves 10201.

[0034] The anti-slip sleeve 10201 effectively increases the friction between the first clamping roller 101 and the second clamping roller 102 during movement.

[0035] Please see Figure 1 A signal receiver 200 is provided on one side of the upper surface of the photovoltaic cleaning robot body 100, and the signal receiver 200 is electrically connected to the photovoltaic cleaning robot body 100.

[0036] Please see Figure 2 A clamping plate 103 is provided at the lower middle position of the two component safety housings 300 where there is no second clamping roller 102. A side fixing plate 106 is provided at the middle position of the other lower end of the two component safety housings 300. A rotating wheel 105 is provided on one side of the side fixing plate 106. The rotating wheel 105 is rotatably connected to the side fixing plate 106.

[0037] Working principle: Before use, the main body 100 of the photovoltaic cleaning robot is placed on the upper surface of the photovoltaic panel. The lower surface of the photovoltaic panel is wrapped by the clamping plate 103 and the rotating wheel 105. The rotation of the first clamping roller 101 and the second clamping roller 102 can effectively rotate on the photovoltaic panel, thereby effectively driving the main body 100 of the photovoltaic cleaning robot to move back and forth. During use, the operation signal is transmitted to the signal receiver 200 through the external operating mechanism, so that the height can be effectively adjusted by the hydraulic telescopic rod 303 and the telescopic rod 304. This allows the height of the cleaning brush roller 104 to be adjusted synchronously, so that the cleaning brush roller 104 fits more closely to the photovoltaic panel to be cleaned. The rotating cleaning brush roller 104 cleans the deposited impurities and dust, which are then blown away by the external wind, thus achieving the effect of cleaning the surface of the photovoltaic panel.
