The critical components as discussed in above embodiments will now be discussed in view of drawings:
Key components of the presently disclosed energy efficient solar window system:
Figure 1 illustrates a broad embodiment of the solar window system (100), showcasing its major components and their arrangement within the recycled plastic outer frame (101) and inner frame (102). The window incorporates solar panel (103) within the inner frame (102), which can either be bifacial or mono-facial, depending on the design and application requirements. The solar panel (103) is embedded within the windowpane (102), allowing it to capture sunlight for electricity generation as depicted in Figure 2 while serving as a conventional window.
The recycled plastic outer frame (101) forms the structural support of the window, holding the solar panel in place while offering environmental sustainability through its composition. Similarly, the inner frame (102), which is also made of recycled plastic, is positioned inside the window to ensure a snug fit and provide additional insulation.
The hinges (104) are shown along the top portion of the frame, enabling the window to operate with an upward-opening mechanism. The gas spring (106) attached to the hinges assists in the smooth opening and closing of the window, preventing abrupt movements and reducing wear on the frame.
The figure also highlights the integrated cleaning mechanism of the window system (100), which ensures the maintenance of the solar panel (103) for optimal performance. The system comprises a cleaning foam (107) and a cleaning brush (108), mounted on a cleaning attachment (109). These cleaning components are designed to move across the surface of the solar panel, either manually or automatically, to remove dust and debris that could hinder energy production.
The cleaning foam (107) is made of a high-density material that efficiently wipes away dirt without scratching the surface of the solar panel, while the cleaning brush (108) provides deeper cleaning for stubborn residues. The movement of the cleaning system is facilitated by roller wheels (110), which enable smooth and consistent operation of the cleaning attachment along the windowpane.
Additionally, the cleaning system is powered by a pulley wheel (105) that moves the cleaning attachment across the window, providing mechanical leverage to reach the entire surface of the solar panel (103). This automated system can be programmed for regular cleaning intervals or activated manually when required, ensuring minimal manual intervention while maintaining the window's (100) energy efficiency.
The figure also shows the window curtain cum reflector (111), a multi-functional component designed to serve both as a curtain for privacy and as a reflective surface to increase sunlight capture by the solar panel (103). This retractable reflector is mounted within the inner frame (102) of the window and can be adjusted to different angles depending on the user's needs.
When the curtain (111) is drawn, it acts as a reflector by directing additional sunlight toward the solar panel (103), enhancing its energy generation capacity. The curtain is retractable, allowing the user to adjust it for privacy or to control the amount of sunlight entering the room, thus serving a dual purpose in both energy efficiency and comfort.
The figure-1 depicts an understanding of how each component of the solar window system is integrated and operates as part of a unified, energy-efficient solution.
Figure 2 illustrates the wiring and flow of energy within the solar window system. The process begins with the Solar Window capturing solar energy, which is then directed to the Solar Controller. The Solar Controller manages the flow of power, distributing it to connected DC Loads for direct use. Additionally, it routes energy to a Battery for storage, allowing for power availability even when sunlight is not present. From the Battery, stored energy can be further transferred to an Inverter, which converts the stored DC power to AC power, making it compatible with AC Loads. This system configuration ensures optimal energy use and storage, balancing direct consumption with the ability to store and convert energy for various applications.
Some of the key advantages of the present invention can be enumerated as:
• Dual Functionality: Combines the functions of a window and a solar panel, eliminating the need for separate rooftop or facade installations.
• Space Efficiency: Ideal for high-density urban areas, requiring no additional space for solar installations.
