In addition, its structure is also relatively complex. Utility Model Content

[0010] Furthermore, the slide block has belt clamping grooves at both axial ends, and the synchronous belt includes two independent belt segments; the two belt segments are respectively wound around the first pulley and the second pulley, and their ends near the slide block are respectively clamped in the corresponding belt clamping grooves.

[0019] Figure 4 The diagram shown is a schematic of the slide in Embodiment 1. Detailed Implementation

[0020] To further illustrate the various embodiments, the present invention provides accompanying drawings. These drawings are part of the disclosure of the present invention and are mainly used to illustrate the embodiments, and can be used in conjunction with the relevant descriptions in the specification to explain the operating principles of the embodiments. With reference to these drawings, those skilled in the art should be able to understand other possible implementations and the advantages of the present invention. The components in the drawings are not drawn to scale, and similar component symbols are generally used to represent similar components.

[0021] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0022] Example 1

[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 4 Example 1 provides a photovoltaic panel directional cleaning device (hereinafter referred to as directional cleaning device) for directional cleaning of sand and dust on photovoltaic panels to avoid affecting photovoltaic power generation efficiency.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the directional cleaning device in this embodiment includes a cleaning mechanism 1, a mounting frame 3 for connecting the photovoltaic panel 4, and a drive mechanism 2 assembled on the mounting frame 3.

[0025] The cleaning mechanism 1 includes a brush 11 for cleaning the photovoltaic panel 4. The drive mechanism 2 includes a motor 22, two slides 21, an active component 23, a driven component 24, and a transmission shaft 25 connecting the active component 23 and the driven component 24. The two slides 21 are arranged at a relative distance and are movably arranged on both sides of the photovoltaic panel 4 in the cleaning direction. The two ends of the brush 11 are rotatably connected to the two slides 21 respectively.

[0026] When the directional cleaning device cleans the photovoltaic panel 4, the motor 22, through the joint action of the active component 23, the driven component 24 and the drive shaft 25, drives the two slides 21 to drive the brush 11 to perform directional cleaning on the photovoltaic panel 4.

[0027] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, both slides 21 have protruding connecting portions 211 on their inner ends facing the photovoltaic panel 4. The two axial ends of the brush 11 are rotatably connected to the protruding connecting portions 211 of the two slides 21 via hinge connectors 5. When the directional cleaning device is cleaning the photovoltaic panel 4, the direction of the brush bristles of the brush 11 is perpendicular to the photovoltaic panel 4, ensuring the cleaning effect of the brush bristles. Furthermore, when the motor 22 reverses to drive the brush 11 back to its original position, the direction of the brush bristles of the brush 11 is inclined towards the photovoltaic panel 4.

[0028] More specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the mounting bracket 3 includes two guide rails 31 and multiple fixing connection components 32 connected to the two guide rails 31. The two guide rails 31 are respectively arranged on both sides of the photovoltaic panel 4 in the cleaning direction, and each fixing connection component 32 is detachably installed on both sides of the photovoltaic panel 4. Of course, in other embodiments, the fixing connection components 32 can also be used to install the guide rails 31 onto the photovoltaic panel 4 in a non-detachable fixing manner.

[0029] Based on the layout of the two guide rails, such as Figure 3 As shown, the active component 23 and the driven component 24 are also arranged on both sides of the photovoltaic panel 4 in the cleaning direction, and each includes a first pulley 26 and a second pulley 27 rotatably mounted on the guide rail 31 and spaced apart, and a synchronous belt 28 wound around the first pulley 26 and the second pulley 27. The two synchronous belts 28 are each equipped with two sliding blocks 21, and as shown... Figure 4 Each slide 21 shown has rollers 212 and sliding protrusions 213 on its opposite upper and lower surfaces, which are used to roll or slide against the upper and lower walls of the guide rail 31, thereby ensuring that each slide 21 is movably assembled into its corresponding guide rail 31.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the first pulley 26 of the active component 23 and the driven component 24 are connected by a transmission shaft 25. The motor 22 is mounted on the guide rail 31 on the same side as the active component 23 and drives the first pulley 26 connected to the active component 23, and synchronously drives the transmission shaft 25 to rotate. At the same time, it also drives each pulley of the active component 23 and the driven component 24 to rotate synchronously, thereby ensuring that each synchronous belt 28 drives the corresponding slide 21 to move back and forth along the extension direction of the guide rail 31.

[0031] By setting two sliding blocks 21 on both sides of the photovoltaic panel 4 in the cleaning direction and rotatably connecting the two ends of the brush 11 to the two sliding blocks 21, the two sliding blocks 21 can drive the brush 11 to perform directional cleaning on the photovoltaic panel 4 when cleaning the photovoltaic panel 4. This can avoid contaminating the cleaned area of ​​the photovoltaic panel 4, effectively improve cleaning efficiency, and has a simple structure.

[0032] Further preferred, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, each slide block 21 has a belt clamping groove 214 at both ends of its axial direction. Each synchronous belt 28 includes two independent belt segments 281. The two belt segments 281 are respectively wound around the first pulley 26 and the second pulley 27, and their ends near the slide block 21 are respectively clamped in the corresponding belt clamping groove 214, so that the two belt segments 281 on the same side can be connected through the slide block 21 to form a whole.

[0033] Of course, in other embodiments, the slide 21 can also be driven to move back and forth within the guide rail 31 by a pull rope drive assembly or a lead screw drive assembly.

[0034] Further preferred, such as Figure 2 As shown, each fixed connection component 32 includes a locking member 322 and a C-shaped connector 321 for holding the photovoltaic panel 4. Each C-shaped connector 321 is assembled at the bottom of the guide rail 31. The upper end of each locking member 322 passes through the lower end of the corresponding C-shaped connector 321 and forms a screw connection with each other until it rotates upward and presses against the photovoltaic panel 4. In this way, the fixed connection component 32 can be detachably connected to the photovoltaic panel 4 through the cooperation of the C-shaped connector 321 and the locking member 322.

[0035] Of course, in other embodiments, the guide rail 31 can also be installed on the side of the photovoltaic panel 4 by welding, clamping structure or connection method such as screws and nuts.

[0036] Example 2

[0037] Example 2 provides a robot that includes at least the photovoltaic panel directional cleaning device of Example 1.

[0038] Although the present invention has been specifically shown and described in conjunction with preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes in form and detail may be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims, and all such changes shall be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
