Solar power generation apparatus capable of tracking sunlight |
摘要 |
The present invention relates to a solar power generation apparatus, which comprises: torque tubes which are arranged to form a plurality of columns; a plurality of solar panels which are installed along each torque tube; posts which rotatably support each torque tube; lever arms which are coupled with each torque tube; a linkage which is disposed on the lower side of the torque tubes and is connected to each lever arm; an actuator which reciprocates the linkage in the longitudinal direction of the linkage, thereby rotating the torque tubes around an axis based on the longitudinal direction of the torque tubes; and a bed frame which is installed between some of the plurality of posts, wherein the actuator is supported thereon. |

1. A solar energy generation apparatus comprising torque tubes arranged in rows; solar panels installed along each torque tube; posts rotatably supporting at least one of the torque tubes, at least one of the posts anchored to ground to form an anchor, the anchor having a surface; a journal anchored to a top of the anchor, the journal having a surface facing the anchor surface; a first anchoring hole in the journal surface and having a first length greater than a first width, the first anchoring hole extending along the surface in a first direction; a second anchoring hole in the anchor surface and having a second length greater than a second width, the second anchoring hole extending along the anchor surface in a second direction not parallel to the first direction; a lever arm connected to at least one of the torque tubes; a linkage disposed under at least one of the torque tubes and connected to at least one of the lever arms; an actuator for actuating the linkage and causing rotation of the torque tube; and a bed supporting the actuator and disposed between some of the posts. |
