Compared with fixed brackets, tracking brackets have higher requirements for hardware and software, so the following four aspects should be optimized. Hardware durability and strength. The tracking bracket comprises a main beam and driving mechanisms; the main beam comprises a plurality of segmented beams and core shaft connectors used for axially and rotatably connecting adjacent segmented beams and. For the photovoltaic system to generate the optimum yield, the solar panels have to follow the path of the sun, just like sunflower buds. Solar trackers continuously adjust the panels' horizontal and height angles (azimuth and elevation). The. This chapter explains the functional requirements of a concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) sun tracker. The chapter presents taxonomy of trackers describing the most common tracking architectures, based on the number of axes, their relative. A tracking type flexible photovoltaic bracket is provided, including photovoltaic assemblies, pillars, a driving member, direction-changing mechanisms, and two pulling ropes. Each of the pillars is disposed with a double-rope grooved wheel.
