Abstract

L'invention concerne un véhicule dont le châssis est plus large qu'un module solaire ou qu'un collecteur solaire. Ledit véhicule franchit ce dernier à la manière d'un pont roulant, de sorte que le module solaire vient se trouver entre les voies du véhicule. Par rapport à un véhicule qui avance sur une voie entre des modules solaires, le véhicule selon l'invention permet de réduire nettement la largeur de voie entre les modules solaires. Contrairement à un véhicule à voie étroite, il permet à l'outil de passer par d'éventuelles irrégularités du terrain avec de moindres débattements en raison des rapports de levier favorables. Un réglage ultérieur éventuellement nécessaire peut ainsi être effectué de manière sensiblement plus simple. Il n'est plus non plus nécessaire d'avoir recours à des masses d'équilibrage. Un autre avantage réside dans le fait que la cabine du conducteur du véhicule peut être placée centralement au-dessus du module solaire et donc dans une position de travail idéale. L'opérateur bénéfice ainsi d'une bonne visibilité sur le module solaire et sur ses outils. Par rapport à des véhicules qui se déplacent eux-mêmes sur les modules solaires, le véhicule selon l'invention a pour avantage de n'être soumis à aucune restriction en termes de poids et de volume, même eu égard aux outils utilisés. Le véhicule représente donc une solution fiable, qui réduit les coûts et améliore éventuellement la sécurité de fonctionnement du véhicule ou de l'installation photovoltaïque ou du champ collecteur d'une centrale solaire thermique. Le véhicule convient par exemple pour le lavage ou le nettoyage de modules solaires ou de collecteurs solaires. Mais il peut également être utilisé pour l'installation, le démantèlement ou l'entretien d'une installation photovoltaïque ou d'un champ collecteur, et par exemple pour effectuer ou assister un remplacement de modules solaires ou de collecteurs solaires avec des outils appropriés.
