Title:
SOLAR PANEL SNOW REMOVAL DEVICE, SOLAR PANEL SNOW REMOVER, AND SNOW REMOVAL METHOD FOR SOLAR PANELS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/097628
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided are a solar panel snow removal device, a solar panel snow remover, and a solar panel snow removal method that make it possible to efficiently remove snow that has accumulated on a panel surface of a solar panel. This solar panel snow removal device is characterized by comprising a frame, a long air nozzle that is provided to the frame, and a compressor that is connected to the air nozzle. The solar panel snow removal device is also characterized in that the air nozzle has: a chamber that is an interior space; and a line slit that allows the chamber to communicate with the outside. The solar panel snow removal device is also characterized in that the line slit is formed along the longitudinal direction of the air nozzle to a length that corresponds to the inclination-direction width of a solar panel. The solar panel snow removal device is also characterized in that the compressor takes in outside air, generates compressed air that is higher pressure and higher temperature than the outside air, and pressure feeds the compressed air into the chamber such that the compressed air is jetted from the line slit to the outside, the jetting direction of the compressed air being oriented more than 0° but less than 90° below an advancement direction. This solar panel snow removal method is characterized by involving: jetting compressed air that is higher pressure and higher temperature than outside air at snow that has accumulated on a solar panel; and pulverizing the snow that has accumulated on the solar panel so as to remove the snow.
