When the angle of the solar panel needs to be adjusted, the two ends of the driving spring 33 are electrified, the temperature of the driving spring 33 is increased, the rigidity is increased, and retraction force is generated, at the moment, the balance point of the driving spring 33 and the return spring 34 moves downwards, the piston 32 contracts, the rack 41 is driven to move downwards, the rack 41 drives the gear 42 to rotate positively, so that the first rotating shaft 6 rotates positively, the rocker arm 12 arranged on the first rotating shaft 6 rotates along with the first rotating shaft, and the solar panel arranged on the bearing platform 11 is driven to realize angle adjustment. When the angle of the solar panel is adjusted to a proper position, the power supply to the driving spring 33 is stopped, and at the moment, the pawl 52 can clamp the ratchet wheel 51 to prevent the first rotating shaft 6 from rotating reversely, so that the rocker arm 12 is prevented from rotating reversely, and the angle position of the solar panel is fixed. With the change of the sunlight angle, the driving spring 33 can be energized again to realize the angle adjustment of the solar panel, so that the solar panel is consistent with the illumination direction until the rocker arm 12 rotates to the forward limit position, see fig. 10.
When the rocker arm 12 is located at the forward limit position, the electromagnetic lock 55 is electrified, the lock tongue of the electromagnetic lock 55 drives the fixing cap 56 and the iron wire 57 to move downwards, so that the pawl 52 unlocks the ratchet wheel 51, the reset spring 34 is still in a compressed state, the driving spring 33 is still in a stretched state, but at the moment, the static force balance point of the two springs is higher than the force balance point at the moment, after the pawl 52 is unlocked, the reset spring 34 pushes the piston 32 to move upwards, so that the rack 41 moves upwards, the rack 41 drives the gear 42 to rotate reversely, and the first rotating shaft 6 is driven to rotate reversely, so that the rocker arm 12 is driven to rotate reversely, and the device is restored to the initial negative limit position.
Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described above, it will be understood that the above embodiments are illustrative and not to be construed as limiting the invention, and that variations, modifications, alternatives, and variations may be made in the above embodiments by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and principles of the invention.
