Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of tracking bracket technology, and more specifically, to an adaptive tracking bracket with wind protection function. Background Technology
[0002] An adaptive tracking bracket is an intelligent support device that uses sensor perception, algorithm calculation, and drive mechanism adjustment to achieve real-time tracking and alignment of targets (such as the sun, human body, specific equipment, etc.).
[0003] During use, it can dynamically adjust its own posture without human intervention, ensuring that the load (such as solar panels, photovoltaic panels, etc.) carried by the bracket is always aligned with the target at the best angle or position, thereby improving functional efficiency.
[0004] In practice, it has been found that wind is a significant interference factor for photovoltaic systems in outdoor environments. In strong winds, when wind enters and exits from the bottom of the inclined surface of the support, it creates a flow inertia, forming an upward arc-shaped wind pattern. As the strong wind continues to move, the impact area of the arc-shaped wind pattern gradually increases, thereby gradually increasing its impact on the support and causing strong vibrations and impacts, leading to swaying, damage, and even affecting tracking accuracy. In view of this, we propose an adaptive tracking support with wind protection function. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide an adaptive tracking bracket with wind protection function, which can effectively solve the problem of the influence of curved wind shape on the stability of the bracket in the prior art, and achieve the effect of improving the positional stability of the bracket when a curved wind shape is generated.

[0008] Two drive components are symmetrically fixed on both sides of several purlins;
[0009] Several counterweight components are arranged in pairs on both sides of the drive component. They are driven by external force to move in opposite directions to improve the wind resistance of the support.
[0010] As an optional solution to the technical solution of this application, the driving component includes a fixed beam, which is fixedly connected to a plurality of purlins. A fixed rod is fixedly arranged on the inner side of the fixed beam, and a wrapping block is rotatably arranged on the outer side of the fixed rod. A dual-head motor is fixedly arranged on the inner side of the wrapping block. Threaded rods are fixedly arranged on both output ends of the dual-head motor.

A pull rope is symmetrically fixedly disposed at the top of the counterweight block. The pull rope passes through the slider and is fixedly disposed inside the fixed beam, and is located on the same side as the rotating end of the corresponding threaded rod. A fixed column is symmetrically fixedly disposed at the bottom of the counterweight block, and a cone column is slidably disposed inside the fixed column.

[0014] As an optional solution to the technical solution of this application, a fixed ring column is coaxially fixedly provided on the outer side of the column, and a hinge block is symmetrically fixedly provided on the outer side of the fixed ring column.

[0017] One or more technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this application have at least the following technical effects or advantages:
[0018] (1) This application uses columns, drive components and counterweight components.

[0025] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 4This application discloses an adaptive tracking bracket with wind protection function, including a column 1, a drive assembly 2, and a counterweight assembly 3. A main beam 11 is rotatably connected to the inner side of each of the two ends of the column 1. Several purlins 12 are fixedly arranged on the outer side of the main beam 11, forming a group. Two drive assemblies 2 are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the purlins 12. Several counterweight assemblies 3 are arranged in pairs on both sides of the drive assembly 2, moving in opposite directions under external force to enhance the wind resistance of the bracket. A fixing ring column 13 is coaxially fixed on the outer side of the column 1. A hinge block 14 is symmetrically fixed on the outer side of the fixing ring column 13. A support connecting frame 15 is rotatably arranged on the inner side of the hinge block 14. The support connecting frame 15 is coaxially fixedly sleeved on both ends of the outer side of the main beam 11 to provide support for the rotation of the main beam 11.
[0027] In use, the two columns 1, the main beam 11, and several purlins 12 constitute the overall frame of the support. The main beam 11 is driven by external equipment, and the purlins 12 are set according to the actual length of the main beam 11. The purlins 12 are used to support external equipment, such as photovoltaic panels. When exposed to wind, the main beam 11 is first driven by external equipment to adjust its angle so that the windward side is set at a certain angle with the photovoltaic panel surface to reduce the impact of wind. At the same time, the drive component 2 on the side closest to the ground is driven to drive the two counterweight components 3 on that side to move towards each other to the maximum distance. When the counterweight components 3 on both sides move to the two ends of the drive component 2, the counterweight components 3 have contacted the ground. The stability of the drive component 2 under wind is improved by the counterweights on both sides of the drive component 2. At this time, by influencing the counterweights on both sides of the drive component 2 at the bottom, the overall vibration of the purlins 12 and the photovoltaic panel under wind can be reduced simultaneously, improving the overall protection of the support and the wind protection effect of the photovoltaic panel.
[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The drive assembly 2 includes a fixed beam 21, which is fixedly connected to several purlins 12. A fixed rod 22 is fixedly arranged inside the fixed beam 21, and a wrapping block 23 is rotatably arranged outside the fixed rod 22. A dual-head motor 24 is fixedly arranged inside the wrapping block 23. Threaded rods 25 are fixedly arranged on both output ends of the dual-head motor 24. The other ends of the threaded rods 25 on both sides are rotatably arranged inside the fixed beam 21. Sliding sliders 26 are slidably arranged on the outer sides of the threaded rods 25 on both sides. The sliders 26 are all slidably disposed inside the fixed beam 21. The sliders 26 on both sides move towards each other. A limit block 27 is fixedly disposed on the outer side of the slider 26. The limit block 27 is slidably disposed inside the slide groove 28. The slide groove 28 is opened on the inner side of the fixed beam 21 corresponding to the limit block 27. A post is fixedly disposed on the outer side of the slider 26 near the wrapping block 23. The post is slidably disposed inside the wrapping block 23 for concentrating the weight. The drive components 2 on both sides are controlled separately to adapt to wind-resistant operations in different directions.
[0029] When the dual-head motor 24 starts, the threaded rods 25 on both sides rotate synchronously, driving the slider 26 sleeved on the outside of the threaded rod 25 to move in opposite directions along the axial direction of the threaded rod 25. At the same time, the limiting block 27 on the outside of the slider 26 slides into the groove 28 on the inside of the fixed beam 21, restricting the rotation of the slider 26 and ensuring that the slider 26 moves stably only along the axial direction. In addition, the insert fixed at the end of the slider 26 near the wrapping block 23 slides into the inside of the wrapping block 23 when the slider 26 moves in the opposite direction. When the slider 26 moves closer to the wrapping block 23, the counterweight is concentrated through the cooperation of the insert and the wrapping block 23. Through the independent control design of the drive component 2, the corresponding side drive can be activated for wind forces in different directions, such as left wind and right wind, to accurately adapt to multi-directional wind resistance operations and avoid energy waste.
[0030] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The counterweight assembly 3 includes a counterweight block 31, which is movably disposed at the bottom of the slider 26. A pull rope 36 is symmetrically fixedly disposed at the top of the counterweight block 31. The pull rope 36 passes through the slider 26 and is fixedly disposed inside the fixed beam 21, and is located on the same side as the rotating end of the corresponding threaded rod 25. A fixed post 32 is symmetrically fixedly disposed at the bottom of the counterweight block 31. A cone post 35 is slidably disposed inside the fixed post 32. A spring 34 is fixedly disposed inside the fixed post 32 and is fixedly connected to the cone post 35. A protrusion is fixedly disposed on the outside of the cone post 35. The protrusion is slidably disposed inside the limiting groove 33. The limiting groove 33 is opened inside the fixed post 32.
[0031] As the counterweight assembly 3 moves with the slider 26 from the center position to the designated positions on both sides, the distance between the pull rope 36 and the counterweight block 31 shortens with the movement of the counterweight assembly 3. This allows the counterweight block 31 to gradually decrease in height as it moves to both sides until it contacts the ground. Simultaneously, as the counterweight block 31 descends, when the cone column 35 contacts the ground, it slides downward along the limiting groove 33 under the action of gravity. At this time, the spring 34 is compressed. When the counterweight block 31 reaches the target position, the cone column 35, under the reaction force of the spring 34,... The bottom is inserted into the ground to enhance the connection strength between the counterweight component 3 and the ground, and improve the counterweight stability of the counterweight component 3 on the fixed beam 21. When there is no wind, the counterweight components 3 on both sides are reset by the drive component 2. Due to the extensibility of the spring, when the counterweight block 31 is moved and lifted, the counterweight block 31 leaves the ground first, and the cone column 35 gradually leaves the ground. After the reset is completed, the cooperation between the insert column and the wrapping block 23 can concentrate the counterweight near the wrapping block 23 when it is necessary to concentrate the wind resistance force, such as in a strong wind environment, thereby enhancing the local wind resistance strength and improving the wind resistance limit of the support.
[0032] In summary, the adaptive tracking bracket with wind protection function disclosed in this application, when in use, consists of two columns 1, a main beam 11, and several purlins 12 forming the overall frame of the bracket. The main beam 11 is driven by an external device, and the several purlins 12 are set according to the actual length of the main beam 11 to support external equipment, such as photovoltaic panels. When exposed to wind, the external device first drives the main beam 11 to adjust its angle, so that the windward surface is set at a certain angle with the photovoltaic panel surface to reduce the impact of wind. At the same time, the drive component 2 on the side closest to the ground is driven, causing the two counterweight components 3 on that side to move towards each other to the maximum distance. When the two counterweight components 3 on both sides move to the two ends of the drive component 2, the counterweights... Component 3 is in contact with the ground, and the stability of the drive component 2 under wind is improved by the counterweights on both sides of the drive component 2. At this time, the counterweights on both sides of the drive component 2 at the bottom can simultaneously reduce the overall vibration of the purlin 12 and the photovoltaic panel under wind, improving the overall protection of the support and the wind protection effect of the photovoltaic panel. When the dual-head motor 24 starts, the threaded rods 25 on both sides rotate synchronously, driving the slider 26 sleeved on the outside of the threaded rod 25 to move in opposite directions along the axial direction of the threaded rod 25. At the same time, the limiting block 27 on the outside of the slider 26 slides into the groove 28 on the inside of the fixed beam 21, restricting the rotation of the slider 26 and ensuring that the slider 26 moves stably only along the axial direction. In addition, the end of the slider 26 near the wrapping block 23 is fixed with a plug The column slides and embeds itself inside the wrapping block 23 as the slider 26 moves in the opposite direction. As the slider 26 approaches the wrapping block 23, the counterweight is concentrated through the cooperation of the column and the wrapping block 23. The drive assembly 2 is designed for independent control, allowing for activation of the corresponding side drive for different wind directions, such as left-side or right-side winds, precisely adapting to multi-directional wind-resistant operations and avoiding energy waste. When the counterweight assembly 3 moves from the center to the designated positions with the slider 26, the distance between the pull rope 36 and the counterweight block 31 shortens, allowing the counterweight block 31 to gradually decrease in height as it moves to the sides until it contacts the ground. Simultaneously, as the counterweight block 31 descends, the cone column 35 contacts the ground. Under the action of gravity, it slides downward along the limiting groove 33. At this time, the spring 34 is compressed. When the counterweight 31 reaches the target position, the bottom of the cone column 35 is inserted into the ground under the reaction force of the spring 34, which enhances the connection strength between the counterweight component 3 and the ground and improves the counterweight stability of the counterweight component 3 on the fixed beam 21. When there is no wind, the two counterweight components 3 are reset by the drive component 2. Due to the extensibility of the spring, when the counterweight 31 is moved and lifted, the counterweight 31 leaves the ground first, and the cone column 35 gradually leaves the ground. After the reset is completed, the cooperation between the insert column and the wrapping block 23 can concentrate the counterweight near the wrapping block 23 when it is necessary to concentrate the wind resistance force, such as in a strong wind environment, to enhance the local wind resistance strength and improve the wind resistance limit of the support.
