Abstract:
A dual axis solar tracker is provided. The dual axis solar tracker includes a moving platform, a fixed platform, a serial chain, a parallel chain and a driving device. The moving platform is supported by the serial chain and driven by the parallel chain, forming a parallel tracking mechanism. The driving device is configured to drive the parallel chain to motion so as to drive the moving platform to rotate around vertical and horizontal axes. The dual axis solar tracker of the present disclosure has a larger workspace, a better tracking performance and advantages of high rigidity, low energy consumption, small driving torque and low inertia, etc.
