A SINGLE AXIS SOLAR TRACKER WITH A TORSIONAL VIBRATION DAMPING DEVICE
The solar tracker includes a pivoting assembly (2) having solar panels (3) fixed to a rotating shaft (1), a fixed structure with support elements (4, 5, 6) rotationally supporting the rotating shaft (1), a motor-reducer assembly (7) having an irreversible reducer (24) connected to the rotating shaft...

Zusammenfassung: | The solar tracker includes a pivoting assembly (2) having solar panels (3) fixed to a rotating shaft (1), a fixed structure with support elements (4, 5, 6) rotationally supporting the rotating shaft (1), a motor-reducer assembly (7) having an irreversible reducer (24) connected to the rotating shaft (1) at a motor connection point (12), and a torsional vibration damping device (8) having a moving member (9) rigidly connected to the rotating shaft (1) at a damper connection point (13) spaced apart from the motor connection point (12) and a stationary member (10) rigidly attached to the fixed structure. One member selected between the moving member (9) and the stationary member (10) comprises magnetic field-generating elements (11) and the other member comprises a section made of an electrically conductive, non-ferromagnetic material. Relative movement between the two members close to one another without contact produces a damping torque by Foucault currents effect. |
