China Three Gorges New Energy has applied for a patent for a photovoltaic panel cleaning device and support structure, aimed at enhancing the efficiency of cleaning photovoltaic panels. According to the information from the National Intellectual Property Administration, the application, titled “Photovoltaic Panel Cleaning Device and Photovoltaic Support,” has the publication number CN 119675567 A and was filed on March 2024.
The patent summary indicates that this application involves a cleaning device technology specifically designed for photovoltaic panels. The cleaning device consists of a mobile mechanism, a cleaning mechanism, a scissor-type telescopic frame, and a driving mechanism. The driving mechanism is located at the end of the photovoltaic support and is detachably connected to both ends of the scissor-type telescopic frame. The driving mechanism is linked to the mobile mechanism, allowing the driving mechanism to extend or compress the scissor-type telescopic frame. This action results in the mobile mechanism moving back and forth along the length of the photovoltaic support.
The cleaning mechanism is positioned on the side of the mobile mechanism facing the photovoltaic support and is designed to make contact with the photovoltaic panels. With the driving mechanism in operation, the cleaning device can effectively clean the panels, thereby improving cleaning efficiency while saving both labor and time.
According to Tianyancha, China Three Gorges New Energy (Group) Co., Ltd. was established in 1985 and is located in Beijing. The company primarily engages in electric and thermal power production and supply. It has a registered capital of 2,862,521,920 RMB and a paid-in capital of 2,000,000,000 RMB.
