The embodiments listed in this utility model are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any obvious modifications or changes made to this utility model do not depart from its spirit and scope.

[0019] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1-6 As shown, a self-powered glass window with an integrated energy storage module includes a window frame 1, and further includes: A support plate 9 is provided. A glass window body 2 is installed inside the window frame 1. Hinges 3 are provided on the side walls of the glass window body 2. The glass window body 2 is rotatably mounted inside the window frame 1 via the hinges 3. Two sets of symmetrical glass window bodies 2 can be rotated inwards to open, realizing the ventilation and lighting functions of the window. Two sets of guide rails 6 are provided on the front of the window frame 1. A sleeve 7, which is a square tube, is vertically installed between the two guide rails 6. Support frames 8 are slidably installed on both sides of the guide rails 6. A support plate 9 for installing solar panels is provided between the two support frames 8. The support frames 8 slide along the guide rails 6. It can drive the support plate 9 and the solar panel to move as a whole. When the two sets of support plates 9 move away from each other and slide to both sides of the window frame 1, the solar panel body 10 and the glass window body 2 are offset from each other, realizing the complete opening of the glass window. An energy storage box 5 is provided on the outside of the window frame 1. The energy storage box 5 is provided with a battery pack, a power management circuit and an output interface. The battery pack is electrically connected to the solar panel through the power management circuit to store the generated energy and supply power to the external load through the output interface. Multiple fixing holes 12 are opened on the support plate 9. A fixing plate 11 is rotatably provided on the outside of the support frame 8. A pin 13 is inserted into a fixing hole 12. A rotating block 15 is rotatably mounted on the top of the fixing plate 11, and a pin 13 is mounted on the rotating block 15. One end of the pin 13 passes through the fixing hole 12, and a limit block 16 is provided at the other end of the pin 13. A return spring 14 is provided between the limit block 16 and the fixing plate 11. The return spring 14 is sleeved on the outside of the pin 13 to provide a return force for the pin 13. The fixing hole 12 is a smooth hemispherical concave hole. The insertion end of the pin 13 is provided with a hemispherical head that matches it. The support plate 9 cannot rotate when no force is applied. When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the solar panel, the support plate 9 is rotated outward (from...). Figure 1 Rotate to the closed state shown Figure 2 (As shown in the unfolded state), the rotating block 15 at the top of the fixed plate 11 slides accordingly. During this process, the pin 13 is squeezed out from the current fixed hole 12. When the support plate 9 rotates to the target angle, the pin 13 automatically springs into the corresponding other fixed hole 12 under the action of the return spring 14, thereby locking the support plate 9 in a new position. A sliding mechanism is installed inside the guide rail 6, which controls the opening and closing of the solar panel by driving the support plate 9 to slide along the inside of the guide rail 6.

[0020] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, the sliding mechanism includes a transmission belt 20, a connecting block 21, and a rotating wheel 19. The guide rail 6 has an installation groove 601 inside, and an installation rod 24 is provided inside the installation groove 601. A rotating wheel 19 is provided outside the installation rod 24. A transmission belt 20 is provided between the two rotating wheels 19. A connecting block 21 is provided on the transmission belt 20. The connecting block 21 is fixedly connected to the support frame 8. Both sets of guide rails 6 are provided with a transmission unit composed of rotating wheels 19 and transmission belt 20. Through the forward and reverse rotation of the transmission belt 20, the connecting block 21 drives the two sets of support frames 8 connected to it to move closer or further apart on the guide rail 6, thereby realizing the movement and adjustment of the support plate 9 and the solar panel.

[0021] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1-5As shown, a rotating rod 23 is provided inside the sleeve 7, and a drive wheel 22 is provided outside the rotating rod 23. The drive wheel 22 is connected to the transmission belt 20. A dial 18 is provided outside the sleeve 7. The dial 18 is used to drive the rotating rod 23 to rotate. The dial 18 is connected to the rotating rod 23 through a gear set provided inside the sleeve 7. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the support frame 8, the dial 18 is manually rotated. The power is transmitted to the rotating rod 23 through the gear set to make it rotate, which in turn drives the drive wheels 22 at both ends to rotate, driving the transmission belts 20 on both sides to move. In order to ensure the reliability of transmission and prevent slippage, anti-slip protrusions can be provided on the working surface of the transmission belt 20, and anti-slip grooves that cooperate with them can be opened on the corresponding contact surfaces of the rotating wheel 19 and the drive wheel 22. The transmission belt 20 and the rotating wheel 19 and drive wheel 22 can also be replaced by chain and sprocket transmission.

[0022] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the support frame 8 is provided with a hinge 17, and the support plate 9 is rotatably mounted on the support frame 8 through the hinge 17.

[0023] The above embodiments of this utility model provide a self-powered glass window with an integrated energy storage module. Two support plates 9 and the solar panel body 10 installed on them are folded into the center of the window frame 1, located on the outside of the glass window, which can protect the glass panel inside the window frame 1. When the glass window body 2 is opened inward, the dial 18 located outside the sleeve 7 is rotated. The connecting block 21 on the transmission belt 20 drives the two support frames 8 fixed thereto to slide towards each other along the guide rail 6. The support frames 8 drive the support plates 9 and the solar panel body 10 to move to both sides of the window frame 1. When the support plates 9 are rotated outward, the solar panel rotates outward and receives sunlight to generate electricity. The generated electricity is transmitted to the energy storage box 5 through the wires. After being processed by the power management circuit, it is stored in the battery pack, or directly supplies power to the connected load through the output interface.

[0024] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this disclosure, but the scope of protection of this disclosure is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this disclosure should be included within the scope of protection of this disclosure. Therefore, the scope of protection of this disclosure should be determined by the scope of the claims.
