Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic planting, and in particular to an energy-saving planting bin under a photovoltaic panel. Background Technology

[0002] Using electricity directly from solar photovoltaic modules to grow vegetables is an innovative agricultural practice that combines solar photovoltaic power generation with modern agricultural planting techniques. This application improves energy efficiency and reduces agricultural production costs.

[0003] Currently, the power generation of photovoltaic (PV) modules is greatly affected by the angle between the PV panel and sunlight. To ensure energy conversion efficiency, the angle of the PV panel needs to be adjusted to adapt to different sunlight angles. Since existing PV panels are fixed, they can only receive sunlight projected in a fixed direction. This means that the power generation efficiency of the PV panels is affected when the sun's position changes. Especially in the morning or evening, when the sun's altitude angle is low, the amount of sunlight received by the PV panels is significantly reduced, thus affecting their power generation efficiency. Energy output is unstable: because PV panels cannot move with the sun, their power generation capacity fluctuates over time. This instability may lead to insufficient power supply.

[0004] A significant drawback of using photovoltaic panels for direct electricity consumption in greenhouses is the inability to maintain a constant temperature. Excessive temperature fluctuations within the growing chamber, especially at night or during weather changes, can hinder crop growth and even trigger pests and diseases. For temperature-sensitive crops, such temperature variations can lead to reduced yields and lower quality. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention provides an energy-saving planting chamber under a photovoltaic panel, which solves the problems that when the photovoltaic panel is fixed, the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic panel will be affected when the position of the sun changes, which may lead to insufficient or excessive power supply; and that the temperature fluctuation inside the planting chamber is too large, especially at night or when the weather changes, which may hinder crop growth.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: an energy-saving planting chamber under a photovoltaic panel, including a planting chamber, a cultivation rack inside the planting chamber, a straight rod on the cultivation rack, the straight rod penetrating the planting chamber, an adjustment device at the top of the straight rod, a photovoltaic panel at the top of the adjustment device, a rotating mechanism on the adjustment device, and a lighting device on the straight rod.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the adjusting device is provided with an outer cylinder, an outer cylinder is provided with a ring rail, an outer cylinder is provided with a rotating shaft, a connecting plate is provided between the rotating shaft and the ring rail, a rotating mounting plate is provided on the connecting plate, the mounting plate is connected to the photovoltaic panel, and an annular groove is provided on the ring rail.

[0008] In the preferred embodiment, multiple support rods are provided between the outer cylinder and the ring rail, a first rotating seat is provided at one end of the connecting plate, a second rotating seat is provided on the connecting plate, the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the outer cylinder, and one end of the connecting plate slides against the ring groove.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the second rotating seat is provided with a rotatably connected electric push rod, the other end of which is connected to the mounting plate, and the mounting plate is connected to the connecting plate through the second rotating seat.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the rotating mechanism includes a motor, a main gear on the output shaft of the motor, a meshing driven gear on the main gear, the driven gear being mounted on the rotating shaft, and the motor being mounted on the outer cylinder.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the lighting device includes an L-shaped pole, one end of which is equipped with a lighting lamp, and the other end of which is equipped with a clamp, which is connected to a straight pole.

[0012] In the preferred embodiment, the planting chamber is equipped with multiple ventilation pipes, each with a fan. The inner wall of the ventilation pipes is lined with heat insulation material, and the outlet of the ventilation pipes is equipped with multiple electric heating grids, which are connected to the second battery.

[0013] In the preferred embodiment, the cultivation rack is equipped with multiple cultivation troughs, and the planting chamber is equipped with multiple insect-proof nets.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: In the morning or evening, when the sun's altitude angle is low, the amount of sunlight received by the photovoltaic panel is significantly reduced, resulting in lower power generation efficiency. The motor driving the rotating mechanism rotates the main gear, which in turn rotates the driven gear, causing the connecting plate to rotate circumferentially relative to the ring track. This allows the photovoltaic panel to rotate circumferentially relative to the ring track, adjusting the circumferential angle of the photovoltaic panel. The electric push rod then rotates the mounting plate relative to the connecting plate, allowing the photovoltaic panel to rotate circumferentially relative to the connecting plate, thus adjusting the tilt angle of the photovoltaic panel. The combination of the adjusting device and the rotating mechanism allows for the adjustment of both the circumferential and tilt angles of the photovoltaic panel, enabling it to follow the sun's movement and adapt to different sunlight angles. This improves the power generation efficiency, energy utilization efficiency, and enhances the photosynthesis of vegetables.

[0015] When the temperature inside the planting chamber is low at night or due to weather changes, the second battery is activated to heat the electric heating network. The electric heating network uses electricity generated by the photovoltaic panels to heat the air passing through them. At the same time, the airflow into the planting chamber can be regulated by controlling the fan speed, thus ensuring that the interior of the planting chamber is always at a good temperature and that the crops can grow normally.

[0016] Multiple fans control air convection, increasing internal airflow and ensuring effective air circulation even in windless weather. The entire system requires no additional electricity, driven by power generated by photovoltaic panels and wind, effectively saving energy consumption. The insulation material inside the planting chamber provides excellent heat retention from all angles and directions. The lighting system is height-adjustable via clamps, allowing for lamp height adjustment. The lights provide both light and some heat to the plants, enhancing photosynthesis and demonstrating significant potential for widespread adoption. Attached Figure Description

[0025] Example 1:

[0026] like Figure 1-6The photovoltaic panel is located in an energy-saving planting chamber, which includes a planting chamber 9. A cultivation rack 1 is installed inside the planting chamber 9. A straight rod 5 is mounted on the cultivation rack 1, passing through the planting chamber 9. An adjustment device 2 is located at the top of the straight rod 5, and a photovoltaic panel 3 is mounted on the top of the adjustment device 2. A rotating mechanism 8 is mounted on the adjustment device 2, and a lighting device 6 is mounted on the straight rod 5. With this structure, in the morning or evening when the sun's altitude angle is low, the amount of sunlight received by the photovoltaic panel is significantly reduced, resulting in lower power generation efficiency. The motor 801 driving the rotating mechanism 8 rotates the main gear 802, which in turn rotates the driven gear 803, causing the connecting plate 204 to rotate circumferentially relative to the ring rail 201. This causes the photovoltaic panel 3 to rotate circumferentially relative to the ring rail 201, adjusting the circumferential angle of the photovoltaic panel 3. An electric push rod 206 is then driven to rotate the mounting plate 205 relative to the connecting plate 204, thus adjusting the tilt angle of the photovoltaic panel 3. The adjustment device 2 and the rotating mechanism 8 together can adjust the circumferential angle and pitch angle of the photovoltaic panel 3 so that the photovoltaic panel 3 can follow the movement of the sun, so as to ensure that the photovoltaic panel 3 can adapt to different angles of sunlight, thereby improving the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic panel 3, improving energy utilization efficiency, and improving the photosynthesis of vegetables.

[0027] When the temperature inside the planting chamber 9 is low at night or due to weather changes, the second battery 12 is turned on to heat the electric heating network 11. The electric heating network 11 uses the electricity generated by the photovoltaic panel 3 to heat the air passing through the photovoltaic panel 3. At the same time, the airflow at the air inlet can be adjusted by controlling the speed of the fan 902, thereby regulating the airflow into the planting chamber 9 and ensuring that the inside of the planting chamber 9 is always in a good temperature condition to ensure the normal growth of the crops.

[0028] Multiple fans 902 control air convection, increasing internal airflow and ensuring effective air circulation even in windless weather. The entire system requires no additional electricity, driven by power generated by the photovoltaic panels 3 and wind, effectively saving energy consumption. The insulation material 10 inside the planting chamber 9 provides excellent heat preservation from various angles and directions. The lighting device 6 can be height-adjusted via clamps 603 to adjust the height of the lighting lamps 602. The lighting lamps 602 provide both light and heat to the plants, enhancing photosynthesis.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the adjusting device 2 is equipped with an outer cylinder 202, an annular rail 201, and a rotating shaft 207. A connecting plate 204 is provided between the rotating shaft 207 and the annular rail 201. A rotating mounting plate 205 is provided on the connecting plate 204 and is connected to the photovoltaic panel 3. An annular groove 2011 is provided on the annular rail 201. With this structure, in the morning or evening when the solar altitude angle is low, the amount of sunlight received by the photovoltaic panel will be significantly reduced, and the power generation efficiency will be low. When this occurs, the motor 801 of the driving rotating mechanism 8 is used to rotate the main gear 802, which in turn rotates the driven gear 803, causing the connecting plate 204 to rotate circumferentially relative to the annular rail 201. This allows the photovoltaic panel 3 to rotate circumferentially relative to the annular rail 201, thereby adjusting the circumferential angle of the photovoltaic panel 3.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, multiple support rods 203 are provided between the outer cylinder 202 and the ring rail 201. A first rotating seat 2041 is provided at one end of the connecting plate 204, and a second rotating seat 2042 is provided on the connecting plate 204. The rotating shaft 207 is rotatably connected to the outer cylinder 202, and one end of the connecting plate 204 slides against the annular groove 2011. With this structure, one end of the connecting plate 204 slides against the annular groove 2011.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the second rotating seat 2042 is provided with a rotatably connected electric push rod 206, the other end of which is connected to the mounting plate 205. The mounting plate 205 is connected to the connecting plate 204 via the second rotating seat 2042. With this structure, one end of the connecting plate 204 is rotatably connected to the electric push rod 206, and the other end of the connecting plate 204 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 205.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, the rotating mechanism 8 includes a motor 801, with a main gear 802 mounted on the output shaft of the motor 801. A driven gear 803 meshes with the main gear 802 and is mounted on the rotating shaft 207. The motor 801 is mounted on the outer cylinder 202. This structure drives the electric push rod 206 to rotate the mounting plate 205 relative to the connecting plate 204, thereby causing the photovoltaic panel 3 to rotate relative to the connecting plate 204, thus adjusting the pitch angle of the photovoltaic panel 3.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the lighting device 6 includes an L-shaped pole 601, with a lighting lamp 602 at one end and a clamp 603 at the other end, which is connected to the straight rod 5. With this structure, the lighting device 6 can be height-adjusted via the clamp 603 to adjust the height of the lighting lamp 602. The lighting lamp 602 provides light and heat to the plants, thus enhancing the photosynthesis of the vegetables.

[0034] In the preferred embodiment, the planting chamber 9 is equipped with multiple ventilation pipes 901, each with a fan 902. The inner wall of each ventilation pipe 901 is lined with heat-insulating material 10, and the outlet of each ventilation pipe 901 is equipped with multiple electric heating grids 11, which are connected to the second battery 12. With this structure, when the temperature inside the planting chamber 9 is low at night or due to weather changes, the second battery 12 is activated to heat the electric heating grids 11. The electric heating grids 11 utilize the electrical energy generated by the photovoltaic panel 3 to heat the air passing through the photovoltaic panel 3. Simultaneously, the airflow at the air inlet can be adjusted by controlling the speed of the fan 902, thus regulating the airflow into the planting chamber 9 and ensuring that the interior of the planting chamber 9 maintains a suitable temperature, guaranteeing normal crop growth.

[0035] In the preferred embodiment, the cultivation rack 1 is equipped with multiple cultivation troughs 101, and the planting chamber 9 is equipped with multiple insect-proof nets 7. With this structure, the second battery 12, lighting lamp 602, electric push rod 206, and storage battery 4 are all connected to the photovoltaic panel 3. Multiple fans 902 can control gas convection, increasing internal airflow and ensuring air circulation even in windless weather. The entire system requires no additional electricity; it is driven by the electricity and wind power generated by the photovoltaic panel 3, effectively saving energy consumption. The heat insulation material 10 inside the planting chamber 9 provides excellent heat preservation from various angles and directions.
