Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tracking device for tracking a collector, absorber, reflector or photovoltaic module according to the position of the sun, with a flat carrier rotatable about a first axis of rotation and a second axis of rotation.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a tracking device for using solar energy, which is inexpensive to manufacture, requires little maintenance during operation and has a long service life.
  • the object is achieved by a tracking device of the type mentioned in the introduction, in which the rotary movement of the flat carrier about the first axis of rotation is mechanically coupled to the rotary movement about the second axis of rotation.
  • a tracking device of the type mentioned is the subject of the invention, in which the first axis of rotation runs essentially horizontally and the second axis of rotation runs essentially vertically, the flat carrier is rotatably attached to a receiving carrier at at least two support points in the first axis of rotation and the receiving carrier is rotatable is attached to a pillar about the vertical axis of rotation.
  • the proposed mechanical coupling of the two rotary movements to one another has the particular advantage that a separate drive is not required for each rotary movement, but that both rotary movements can use the same drive.
  • the mechanical coupling also gives the system additional stability.
  • the particular advantage of the receiving carrier according to the invention lies in the first time cost-effective implementation of a tracking device.
  • the mounting bracket enables the attacking wind loads to be transferred to the pillar while avoiding high bending moment loads.
  • the first axis of rotation runs horizontally and the second axis of rotation runs vertically.
  • the inclination angle of the planar support can be adapted to the angle of incidence of the sun on the earth via the horizontal first axis of rotation and the earth's rotation can be taken into account via the vertical axis.
  • the adjustment of the inclination of the flat carrier is coupled to the rotary movement about the vertical second axis of rotation. It is therefore sensible to connect the horizontal first axis of rotation to the support and to select the vertical second axis of rotation in a stationary manner.
  • the mechanical coupling of the two rotary movements is advantageously carried out via an articulated but rigidly spaced connection of the flat carrier at a point spaced from the horizontal first axis of rotation via a spacer articulated on both sides with a fixed fixing element spaced from the vertical second axis of rotation. If, as part of the tracking, the carrier and the horizontal first axis of rotation, which is firmly connected to the flat carrier, is rotated about the vertical second axis of rotation and the articulated spacer supports engages at the point spaced from the horizontal first axis of rotation, then the articulated spacer supports moves connected point on a circular path, which is part of the enveloping sphere of the spacer element fixedly attached on one side. Depending on the length of the spacer element, a desired maximum and minimum inclination of the flat carrier is thus set depending on the instantaneous angular position with respect to the vertical second axis of rotation.
  • the distance support can be adjustable in length. This can be done, for example, via a thread, which is readjusted manually at regular intervals.
  • the length adjustment of the spacer support can also be motor-driven, for example by means of an electric motor. This would also allow permanent fine adjustment of the angular position of the flat beam without manual intervention.
  • the increased precision of the tracking would result in a further increase in efficiency.
  • Such an influence on the tracking could advantageously be controlled centrally.
  • the advantages according to the invention namely the saving of an expensive, complicated tracking, are still retained, since the additional motorized adjustment option is only a module for fine adjustment, which can be made inexpensively compact due to the short travel distance.
  • a particularly robust and simple rotatable mounting of the receiving carrier is obtained if it is supported in the middle on a cone tip, which forms the upper end of a stationary pillar.
  • Bearing on a cone tip is much cheaper than any form of rolling bearing. In view of the low bearing load with regard to the quasi-static movement, this arrangement is constructively sensible and economically extremely cheap. This extremely simple form of plain bearing is also very low-maintenance and reliable.
  • the great advantage of the tracking device according to the invention only fully unfolds when a large number of these devices are used.
  • several devices of the same type can be connected in a row with traction means and the angle can be adjusted by means of an actuator via the traction means.
  • 50 tracking devices according to the invention can be tracked with only one actuator of the sun.
  • the always stable angular position of the tracking devices can be ensured by means of a counterweight.
  • rigid connections between the actuator and the tracking devices, or the tracking devices with one another, can also be provided.
  • Fig. 1 A perspective view of a tracking device according to the invention.
  • the tracking device according to the invention is designated by the reference number 1 in FIG. It essentially consists of a carrier 2, a receiving carrier 3 and a pillar 4.
  • the carrier 2 consists essentially of two longitudinal profiles which finally delimit the carrier on two sides and two transverse profiles, which are each attached to the longitudinal profiles at a distance of approximately one third of the length of the longitudinal profiles.
  • a first horizontal axis of rotation in which the carrier 2 is attached to the frame structure of the receiving carrier 3, runs through a main axis of inertia parallel to the longitudinal profiles 2a.
  • a traction means guide 8 is attached, which is cylindrically curved in a semicircle.
  • a traction means is attached to the horizontally oriented semicircular traction means guide 8.
  • a vertical second axis of rotation 9 runs through the vertical main axis of inertia of the receiving carrier 3.
  • the vertical second axis of rotation 9 is approximately aligned such that it intersects with the horizontal first axis of rotation 7.
  • the receiving support 3 is mounted on the pillar 4 in the middle of the vertical second axis of rotation 9. Storage takes place via a cone tip 10 located at the upper end of the pillar 4.
  • the frame-shaped support beam consists essentially of an upper 11 and a lower cross member 12 and two side supports 13, 14.
  • the lower cross member 12 is provided with a passage for the pillar 4, which opens into a cone tip 10 at the upper end, which serves to absorb the contact force of the carrier 2. Any transverse forces from, for example, a wind load are absorbed by the cone tip 10 as well as by the bearing on the bushing 15.
  • a fastening element 16 is attached to the pillar 4, which is connected to a spacer 17, which is articulated both on the fastening element 16 and on the carrier 2.
  • the distance support 17 is adjustable in length, so that a fine adjustment of the swept angle of inclination can be carried out depending on the season.
  • the entire tracking device 1 is made of common structural steel as a welded construction and is galvanized on the surface.
