Problems solved by technology

[0006] At present, some independent crawling cleaning robots use wheeled walking, some use crawler walking, and some use suction cup mode to realize the walking function. When installing, there will be a certain height difference between adjacent photovoltaic panels. , so that the walking wheel of the wheeled walking robot slips and cannot continue to move forward, and the cleaning is not comprehensive, insufficient, and the cleaning effect is weakened

Embodiment 1

[0048] Such as Figure 1-6 As shown, a robot for cleaning solar panels includes a robot body 113 and a plane walking mechanism and a climbing mechanism arranged on the robot body 113. The plane walking mechanism is used to drive the robot body 113 to move on the solar panel. The mechanism is used to assist the robot body 113 in climbing.

[0049] When solar panels are installed, sometimes there will be a certain height difference at the docking position of adjacent solar panels. When the robot walks to this position, it cannot climb from a low position to a high position, causing the robot to be unable to move forward. By setting up a climbing mechanism, the auxiliary plane The walking mechanism makes the robot climb from the lower solar panel to the higher solar panel, so that the robot can move forward more smoothly.

[0050] The planar traveling mechanism can be a wheeled planar traveling mechanism, or a crawler-type planar traveling mechanism. The crawler-type plane walk...

Embodiment 2

[0052] Such as Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment is a further limitation to Embodiment 1, and the planar traveling mechanism in this implementation is a wheeled planar traveling mechanism.

[0053] The plane walking mechanism includes a plurality of walking wheels 100, and the climbing mechanism includes climbing wheels 101. When the robot walks on a plane, the walking wheels 100 contact the walking plane 102, and the lower end of the climbing wheels 101 is spaced from the walking plane 102 by a certain distance. Distance d, when climbing, the climbing wheel 101 is in contact with the slope.

[0054] In the above structure, if the climbing wheel 101 is not provided, when the robot walks between two solar panels with a height difference, the walking wheel 100 will often slip and cannot move forward. By setting the climbing wheel 101, when climbing, the robot can climb The slope wheel 101 is in contact with the slope surface and rotates relatively, so that the front end of ...

Embodiment 3

[0083] Such as Figure 1-3 As shown, a robot for cleaning solar panels includes a robot body 113, a plane walking mechanism, a climbing mechanism and a first driving device, the first driving device includes a drive motor, and the robot body 113 includes a left mounting plate 104 and a right The mounting plate 105, the left mounting plate 104 and the right mounting plate 105 are perpendicular to the walking plane 102, and the left mounting plate 104 and the right mounting plate 105 are all parallel to the walking direction of the robot. The robot body 113 is left-right symmetrical about a mid-plane passing through its midpoint, parallel to the walking direction and perpendicular to the walking plane 102 .

[0084] Such as figure 1 As shown, the planar traveling mechanism includes a traveling wheel 100B, a traveling wheel 100C, a traveling wheel 100B', and a traveling wheel 100C'. The traveling wheel 100B and the traveling wheel 100C are installed on the inner side of the left...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of robots, and particularly relates to a robot for cleaning a solar panel. The robot comprises a robot body and a plane walking mechanism and a climbing mechanism which are arranged on the robot body, the plane walking mechanism is used for driving the robot body to move on the solar panel, and the climbing mechanism is used for assisting the robot body in climbing. The robot has the advantages that by arranging the climbing mechanism, the plane walking mechanism is assisted in climbing, the slip phenomenon of the walking mechanism is prevented, the robot canclimb to a high solar panel from a low solar panel, and crossing of the robot between two adjacent solar panels with certain height difference is achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of robots, and in particular relates to a robot for cleaning solar panels. Background technique [0002] Photovoltaic power stations have developed rapidly in my country in recent years because of their advantages such as cleanliness, environmental protection, no fuel consumption, and rich natural resources. Factors affecting the power generation efficiency of photovoltaic power plants, in addition to the quality of solar panels and sunlight, are also very important for the maintenance and operation of solar module arrays. [0003] In my country, the central and western regions suitable for building photovoltaic power plants have a dry climate, less precipitation, and sometimes sandstorms. The dust accumulation on the surface of the solar module array will lead to a decrease in power generation, and even thick stains on the module array will cause Localized heating of solar panels creates hot spots that lead to damage...
