AI Technical Summary
Current solar trackers struggle to efficiently adapt to uneven and undulating ground surfaces, leading to increased costs for earth-moving works and land requirements, while existing solutions either become expensive or require shorter trackers with higher specific costs.
A reduction gearbox with at least two take-off joints is designed to allow for flexible adjustment of the orienting crossbars' inclination relative to the ground, enabling the solar tracker to adapt to varying terrain without the need for extensive earth-moving or shorter tracker structures.
The solution allows for efficient installation of solar trackers on uneven ground with reduced costs and land requirements, maintaining the length of the trackers while minimizing the unused surface area and installation complexities.
