Abstract

The system enables positioning, aligning and/or tracking of a system platform by viewing current heat of sun via tilting motions in all axes. A center of the system platform and a center of a rod construction are grounded, and a hemisphericaly moving tilting axle is in form of a universal joint. A surface of the system platform is in right angle to any point of an entire hemisphere, and the system platform is moved using two linear drives.

Description

Photovoltaik – Module und mitunter auch thermische Solarkollektoren können mit dem Ziel einer erheblichen Ertragssteigerung dem aktuellen Lauf der Sonne nachgeführt werden. Nach dem Stand der Technik gibt es dafür drehbare, einachsige und zweiachsige Nachführsystemen in vielfältigen Bauformen und elektronischen Steuerungen.Photovoltaic modules And sometimes even solar thermal collectors can aim for a substantial Yield increase following the current course of the sun. According to the prior art, there are rotatable, uniaxial and two-axis tracking systems in a variety of designs and electronic controls.

Nach neuesten Untersuchungen und Tests sind in Mitteleuropa und höheren Breitengraden die Zugewinne zweiachsiger gegenüber einachsiger Nachführanlagen doch deutlich geringer als die teilweise pauschalen Angaben der Hersteller. Auch haben hier die Sensorsteuerungen einen größeren Vorteil gegenüber astronomischer Steuerungen. Ganz anders sieht es allerdings in den Breitengraden des so genannten Sonnengürtels aus, hier und insbesondere zugehend in Richtung Äquator bringen astronomische Nachführsysteme ein wesentlich größeres Ertragsplus gegenüber einer Festinstallation. Einachsige Nachführsysteme sind hier nur bedingt oder gar nicht einsetzbar.To latest surveys and tests are in Central Europe and higher latitudes the gains biaxial uniaxial tracking systems but significantly lower than the partially blanket information of Manufacturer. Also, the sensor controls have a bigger advantage here across from astronomical controls. It looks quite different in the Latitudes of the so-called sunbelt out, here and in particular going towards the equator bring astronomical tracking systems a significantly higher yield increase across from a permanent installation. Single-axis tracking systems are limited here or not applicable.

Nach dem Stand der Technik bedienen die meisten zweiachsigen Nachführsysteme im Azimut einen Winkel von ca. 270° und in der Elevation von ca. 0° bis 45°. Damit sind diese zweiachsigen Nachführsysteme auch nur bedingt einsetzbar. Hinzu kommen mitunter Nachteile wie kostenaufwändige, massige Fundamentierungen, stark verschleißfördernde Nickanfälligkeiten und häufige Einnahme von Notparkpositionen bei Windbelastungen.To In the prior art, most biaxial tracking systems operate in the azimuth an angle of approx. 270 ° and in the elevation of approx. 0 ° to 45 °. This is these biaxial tracking systems also only conditionally usable. In addition, there are sometimes disadvantages such as costly, massive foundations, highly susceptible to nickel-susceptibility to wear and frequent Taking emergency parking positions under wind load.

Die global hemisphärisch zur Sonnenbahn verfahrbare Montage- und Nachführanlage bedient im Azimut einen Winkel von 360° und in der Elevation einen Winkelbereich von ca. 30° bis 150° bzw. 0° bis 180°. Die Positionierung der Anlagenplattform erfolgt durch Kippen der Ebene (1). In der Mitte der Ebene befindet sich die hemisphärisch bewegliche Kippachse in Form eines Kreuzgelenkes (2). Zwei Linearantriebsachsen bilden mit der Kippachse ein großes stabiles Dreieck. Mit der Ansteuerung der beiden Linearantriebe erfolgt das Kippen und somit die aktuelle Positionierung der Plattform.The global hemispherical trajectory for the solar trajectory and the tracking system operates in azimuth an angle of 360 ° and in the elevation an angle range of about 30 ° to 150 ° or 0 ° to 180 °. The positioning of the plant platform is done by tilting the plane ( 1 ). In the middle of the plane is the hemispherically movable tilting axis in the form of a universal joint ( 2 ). Two linear drive axes form a large stable triangle with the tilt axis. With the activation of the two linear drives, the tilting and thus the current positioning of the platform takes place.

Durch Einbau von Stoß – Dämpfungselementen in Kombination und im Zusammenwirken mit den Linearantrieben werden die bei vergleichbaren Systemen bekannten Nickanfälligkeiten deutlich minimiert (3). Die Anlage muss auch bei starken Windbelastungen und in jeder momentanen Stellung keine Notparkpositionen einnehmen.By incorporating shock-absorbing elements in combination and in conjunction with the linear drives, the pitching susceptibility known from comparable systems is significantly minimized ( 3 ). The system must not occupy emergency parking positions even in strong wind loads and in any current position.

Die Gründung zur Mastmontage kann neben den bekannten Ausführungen (Betonfundamentierung) vorzugsweise mittels mindestens vier Stück Stahl – Drehfundamente im kleinen quadratischen Abstandsraster erfolgen (3). In dieser Anordnung minimieren sich die Lochleibungskräfte und die Größe der Lastaufnahme bzw. Krafteinleitung nehmen erheblich im Vergleich zu einer einzelnen zentralen Fundamentierung zu.The foundation for mast assembly can be done in addition to the known designs (concrete foundation) preferably by means of at least four pieces of steel - turning foundations in a small square spacing grid ( 3 ). In this arrangement, the bearing forces are minimized and the magnitude of the load bearing or force input increases significantly as compared to a single central foundation.
