Description

Foldable Solar Panels {hinge type charger using solar cell}

The present invention relates to a solar panel, and more particularly, to a folding solar panel that can be folded and carried in a small size and spread to receive a large amount of light to supply sufficient power to a mobile phone or a mobile phone battery.

Recently, as the use of mobile phones has become more common, efforts have been made to improve the performance and convenience of mobile phones.

The mobile phone consumes current during standby as well as during a call, and after a certain period of time, the mobile phone becomes unusable due to battery discharge.

Cell phone batteries manufactured in a constant volume have a limited charge capacity, so the usage time is limited depending on the current consumption of the cell's internal circuit.

Therefore, a variety of vehicle chargers have been developed and used to continuously charge and use from the outside, which is possible to charge the battery only in the vehicle riding state, it is impossible to use where the vehicle can not enter.

In this case, a mobile phone can be used or charged using a solar cell that converts solar energy into electrical energy. As a related art, there is a power supply of a portable device disclosed in Korean Patent Laid-Open No. 99-40504.

Referring to the present disclosure, the power supply of the portable device includes the configuration of an auxiliary solar panel, which is composed of a single solar panel, in order to obtain a power generation for use of a mobile phone and battery charging. Since it has to be configured in a large area has a disadvantage that the appearance of the power supply of the portable device becomes large and inconvenient to carry.

This portable disadvantage can be solved somewhat by the folding solar panel disclosed in Korean Utility Model Publication No. 93-40504. The collapsible solar panel has a structure that can be attached to the solar panel attached to the Velcro tape attached to the cover, which can be folded if necessary. However, when the solar panels are attached using Velcro tape on the front of the cover, the solar panels are frequently separated and collided with each other due to the flexibility of the cover. It was to be.

Accordingly, the solar panels should be alternately removed and folded so as to give an empty space at a predetermined interval, so that the inconvenience of having to store and manage the solar panels separately and the connection between the solar panels every time the solar panels are detached. It was inconvenient to remove the connection piece of the power line.

The present invention devised to solve such a conventional problem is safe without any structural flexibility that can damage the solar panel while being folded in a compact form without having to remove the solar panel when carrying, it is safe and solar in use It is an object of the present invention to provide a folding solar panel that can easily unfold the plate to obtain a sufficient amount of power generation.

In addition, the present invention aims to provide a collapsible solar panel that can add or reduce solar panels as needed to increase or decrease power generation.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is hinged to each other in two sets, the solar panel is composed of a plurality of solar cells are installed on the inner surface of the body facing each other and converting the light energy into electrical energy and the mutual fixing means And a first accommodating panel hinged by a hinge coupling means detachable to a position opposite to the hinged opposite side of the case, and any other accommodating n-th accommodating panel adjacent to the first accommodating panel. The hinge is pivotally rotatable by the panel and the hinge coupling means, and the storage panels are folded to be stored in the case, and each of the storage panels is provided with a solar plate in the same direction as the solar plate of the case. It provides a folding solar panel.

The hinge coupling means is characterized in that the one side is formed of a rod-shaped coupling portion, the other side is formed of a groove coupling portion which is inserted into the rod-shaped coupling portion and hinged to be detachable.

At least an outer circumferential surface of the rod-shaped coupling portion and at least an inner circumferential surface of the groove coupling portion are formed of a conductor connected to a power line of the solar panel, so that the solar panel is connected in parallel or in series when the storage panel is coupled.

The present invention configured as described above can be stored and carried in a compact state by folding the storage panels unfolded in use and putting them in the inner surface of the case to close and secure the case. In addition, since the storage panel can be additionally addressed as necessary in the use state, it is possible to sufficiently supply the amount of power required for the electric device to be used.
