Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of photovoltaic cleaning technology, and in particular to a photovoltaic cleaning robot base station. Background Technology

[0002] Developing the photovoltaic industry is an important means for my country to achieve its energy transition and carbon neutrality goals, and the country has been paying increasing attention to photovoltaic power generation in recent years. During the operation of photovoltaic power plants, because photovoltaic cells are outdoors for long periods of time, they are prone to accumulating various contaminants such as dust, dirt, and bird droppings. These contaminants can block sunlight, leading to a further decrease in the light absorption rate of solar cells and affecting the power generation efficiency and stability of the entire photovoltaic power generation system.

[0003] Therefore, the benefits of regularly cleaning photovoltaic (PV) systems are mainly twofold: first, it maintains the output power of the PV system, ensuring its long-term stable operation; second, it extends the lifespan of the PV system, reducing maintenance and replacement costs. After cleaning and maintenance, not only will the output power of the PV system be improved, but operating and maintenance costs will also be reduced.

[0004] Currently, the most traditional cleaning method involves manual cleaning using various mechanized cleaning tools such as mops, rags, and disc-shaped automatic cleaning brushes to clean the photovoltaic surfaces. This method often requires a large workforce, and because the cleaning area of ​​these tools is relatively small, repeated manual movement is necessary to achieve thorough cleaning, resulting in low cleaning efficiency. In addition, some cleaning methods utilize more advanced automated cleaning equipment, such as track-mounted or rail-mounted cleaning robots and tracked sweeping robots.

[0005] When cleaning of solar panels is required, workers place a cleaning robot on the solar panel. Powered by its built-in battery, the robot returns to the base station to dock and / or recharge for future use. Currently, installing the base station requires manual labor to climb onto the roof, drill holes, and perform other structural work to secure the panel. In some locations where securing is difficult, a bridge must be built between the solar panel and the base station to allow the cleaning robot to pass. This not only makes installation cumbersome but also increases costs and the workload for workers.

[0006] In view of this, a new technical solution is needed to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0046] See Figure 1-5 As shown, the photovoltaic cleaning robot base station includes:

[0047] Body 1, photovoltaic panel 2 installed at the outermost corner of the photovoltaic power station;

[0048] The fixing mechanism 3 is installed on the main body 1, and the clamping end clamps the photovoltaic panel 2.

[0049] The main body 1 is fixed to the photovoltaic panel 2 at the outermost corner of the photovoltaic power station by the fixing mechanism 3. The structure is simple, the installation is convenient, and the cost and labor intensity of the staff are reduced.

[0050] In a further specific embodiment, the body 1 includes a fixing plate 11 and a support assembly 12, wherein the support assembly 12 is installed at the bottom of the fixing plate 11. The support assembly 12 supports the fixing plate 11, enabling it to bear the weight of the photovoltaic cleaning robot and strengthening its overall strength.

[0051] In a further specific embodiment, the support component 12 includes a first support member 121 and a second support member 122, the first support member 121 and the second support member 122 are respectively installed on the bottom of the fixing plate 11, and the first support member 121 is perpendicular to the second support member 122.

[0052] The fixing plate 11 is supported by the first support member 121 and the second support member 122 respectively. It should be noted that...

[0053] This embodiment also includes two third support members 123, which are respectively installed on the bottom of the fixing plate 11 and are perpendicular to each other. One of the third support members 123 is perpendicular to the first support member 121, and the other third support member 123 is perpendicular to the second support member 122.

This arrangement completes the installation of the fixing plate 11, enabling the photovoltaic cleaning robot to move smoothly between the photovoltaic panel 2 and the fixing plate 11. The structure is simple and the installation is convenient.

[0060] In other specific embodiments, the number of the first fixing component 31 and the second fixing component 32 can both be one.

In this embodiment, the first connector 313 directly contacts the first clip 311, fixing the first clip 311 and the second clip 312 to the top and bottom of the first support member 121 respectively. The structure is simple and highly practical.
