Title:
WASHING DEVICE FOR SOLAR CELL PANEL
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS6076175
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PURPOSE:To automatically wash the panel face for saving labor as well as reducing the washing expenses, by laying wipers to be closely contacted with the panel face and rotating the same with a driving means while blowing water over the panel face. CONSTITUTION:Wipers 3A-3J are usually held to stand vertically to the ground, while in washing, the wipers 3A-3J are laid to be contacted closely with the panel face 1, so that the panel face 1 is washed by the wipers driven by drive means with water flowing over the panel face 1. This water is supplied from rain or from a supply pipe 2. Washing operation is performed automatically by an order from an operation room. Operation of the wipers 3A-3J are controlled in such a manner that the panel face 1 can be wiped almost completely by starting from the upstream of the water flow toward the downstream, for example, first the wipers 3A, 3B and 3C, then the wipers 3D-3I and finally the wiper J are subsequently rotated in that order. After the completion of washing, all the wipers are stopped and returned to the position standing vertically to the ground.
