Definitions
- the present invention is a two-axis solar tracker with multiple panels (in the example, 100 units).
- the objective of any two-axis solar tracker is to achieve maximum use of the sun, putting the panels perpendicular to the sun at all times and seasons of the year.
- All current structures are based on several structural elements for a single follower: A large support shaft that supports a second structure for anchoring panels, or a support structure for mounting a second structure filled with solar panels, or Feet on which another panel structure is assembled etc.
- Our invention is based on a single self-supporting structure, that is, a single structure serves as a support for the floor, and for supporting the panels, without any other structure, nor intermediate elements. It is a single structure that performs both movements, which rests directly on the ground through only its wheels.
- a solar tracker with perpetual power generation has been achieved throughout the entire life of the solar panel, since even in the case of a serious breakdown, or very violent winds, the tracker continues to generate electricity.
- the reduction of its energy consumption has been achieved to move it, so far never taken into account, and finally the maximum simplification in its construction has been achieved in order to minimize the economic impact on its construction to unknown limits until today. transport and assembly.
- the present invention makes an important leap in solar generation. If until now all solar trackers were conceived in different ways, designs and mechanisms to achieve the same purpose, put the panels perpendicular to the sun, our solar tracker is the first one designed so that under no circumstances stop generating electricity, and that its manufacturing, transportation, assembly and maintenance costs, as well as those derived from its movement, be the minimum existing.
- the present invention advocates a solar tracker, consisting of two axes and multiple units / panels, characterized in that it consists of a modular bearing structure in which each module consists of at least two lateral stringers arranged at 45 ° and supporting the axes of rotation of the units / panels and leaning Ia single bearing structure and directly to the ground by means of angularly adjustable wheels at will to the structure, the units / panels being arranged in horizontal rows with height symmetry, having at least one row their units / panels displaced in one direction their center of gravity with respect to to its axis of rotation, and its corresponding symmetrical row having it displaced in the opposite direction.
- the supporting structure has laterally self-supporting triangular structure in the form of a crane arm, with two axes in which the horizontal movement is made by rotating the entire structure on its wheels and the vertical rotation by turning the units / panels on themselves, each of these groups of units / panels being fixed to the structure separately and resting the vertical axis of the supporting structure on the center of gravity.
- the units / panels are grouped into rows, each row being independent in the turn, and several rows can be operated with a single mechanism, or each row separately.
- the supporting structure consists of a braced substructure with triangular lateral view with 45 ° sides dimensioned for truck transport.
- Figure 1 is a side view of a practical embodiment of a structure (e) for the solar tracker of the invention, in 72 ° position, in which the wheels (1), the roll-over block (2) and storm-slip are seen, The butterfly arrangement of the panels (3), the wind voltage detector (4), and it is clearly perceived that it is a single structure.
- Figure 2 is a perspective view of the solar tracker of the invention, in which the rows / groups of 5 panels (3) are clearly visible.
- Figure 3 is a detail of the group of 5 panels at 72 ° of Figure 2 and the passage of wind all around, and the 2 support points (5) per group / row.
- Figure 4 is a detail of the bolted wheels (1) in their turning position. Forwarding (7) and the drive system (8) of the units / panels (3) are seen.
- Figure 5 is a view of the substructure (t) placed on a truck, disassembled in two halves (AI), (te), located one half on top of another.
- Figure 6 is a front view of the solar tracker on a terrain without unevenness or on a terrain with n unevenness (a1) easily distinguishing the modules in stands.
- Figure 7 is a view of the solar tracker in which the structure (e) has extensions (10) for the wheels (1), forwarding (7) of the vertical drive system, and panels located at 55 ° corresponding to the first position of storm safety.
- Figure 8 is a side view of Figure 7 of panels at 90 ° and corresponding to the second anti-storm safety position.
- FIG. 9 is a rear perspective view of the solar tracker of the invention, where it is appreciated that the structure (e) supports only in the wheels (1), and the two halves ( ⁇ A), ( ⁇ B) in which the structure is separated to be transported in a single truck.
- the structure (e) of the invention is a self-supporting symmetrical triangular structure, in the form of a real estate construction crane arm.
- Two-axis structure based on a single structural multi-panel supporting element (in the example one hundred panels) - figures 1 and 2-, which is supported directly to the ground through only wheels (1) and that performs the movements of the two axes, without the need of any other structure, support, or intermediate module.
- the horizontal movement is done as in a triangular irrigation structure, or the bridge of a water treatment plant, rotating the entire structure on its wheels (1) -figure 9-.
- Vertical rotation in groups of five panels rotating on themselves (ev) - Figure 4-, as in a carburetor butterfly, or a water butterfly valve, (in the example described with groups of five panels) each of these rows / groups of panels is fixed to the structure (e) separately
- the two-axis structure places the units / panels (3) in 45 ° triangular symmetrical grandstand, which allows vertical movement from 1-8 ° to 72 ° without the panels becoming shadowed, in the smallest possible existing space, since 45 ° is half of the mentioned useful movement.
- Panels (3) are grouped five by five in the form of a butterfly, - Figures 1 and 2-, where each row / group is independent in the turn, although several groups can be operated with a single mechanism, or each group of five separately.
- the units / panels (3) are subject to the vertical axis (ev) with a slight displacement ( ⁇ ) with respect to their center of gravity, in order to detect the wind tension - Figure 1 -.
- each vertical module there are four groups of five panels: two groups of five panels shifted down, and the other two groups shifted up. (Half up, the other half down).
- the weight remains at the center of gravity, in order to obtain the effect described in the following point, but detecting the wind tension
- the units / panels (3) are divided into groups of five units / panels - Figure 3-, in which each group has its own points of support and rotation, in order to distribute the tensions of the wind.
- Each group of five units / panels has at least 100mm. free around, in order to let the wind leak, and avoid the sailing effect.
- each support point of the panels to the structure receives a maximum of 2.5% of the force of the wind, so that there is no critical point.
- the mechanisms of rotation or traction do not receive oblique or torsional tensions, only linear, so that the critical points disappear.
- the structure (e) is supported exclusively with wheels (1) directly on the ground -figure 9-, which by itself without the help of other elements, can absorb irregularities of the ground, being, however, the panels always perpendicular to the sun - Figure 6-.
- the wheels (1) can be placed at any point of the structure (e), they can even be placed with extensions (10), at points external to the structure -figure 7-.
- the wheels are fixed, giving them the necessary angle of rotation, at the time of assembly or later. Therefore, the wheels alone dominate the turn when they are fixed in the specific angular position. Being able to vary this angular position, at will.
- the roll block (2) is not necessary, which only prevents the rollover and displacement of the structure (e) in case of violent winds.
- This two-axis structure is designed in grandstand modules, which allows it to be made as long as desired, simply by adding more modules, figures 6 and 3-, screwing them one behind another, without having to reinforce it or modify its structure, nor modify its design, nor reinforce its turning systems.
- the structure (e) has a double security position, which works at 100% capacity up to winds of 90 km / h.
- the security system places the panels (3) in a horizontal position, in the form of a step -figure 8-.
- the anti-roll and windproof system is limited to a block (2) of small cylindrical steel, welded to a plate that is screwed into the ground.
- the structure is fixed to this block simply by means of a nut (12) or other means of removing and putting - Figures 1 and 9-.
- This improvement allows the repair or maintenance operations of some or all of the components of the vertical rotation, even in case of total destruction thereof, while the structure can continue generating up to 35% more than a fixed structure (the movement horizontal of the structure can continue working)
- the drive systems (8) can be operated mechanically, hydraulically, pneumatically, or any other known system. It is a simple matter of optimization at the time of riding.
- the triangular substructure (t) has a width (a) height (h) and length (I) that allow it to be loaded in the truck box. Since the assembly is modular, it allows the manufacturer (for sum of modules) an easy adaptation to user needs, transport and assembly.
