In the control method of the solar cell module structure snow removing unit according to an embodiment of the present invention, the step of receiving the weight information from the weight sensor from the weight sensor in the solar cell module frame equipped with a heating element, the control unit is provided from the weight sensor And determining whether the weight information is equal to or greater than the set weight, and switching the power supply so that power is supplied only when the weight information is equal to or greater than the set weight.
In addition, the controller is characterized in that for receiving the weight information periodically from the weight sensor.
When the control method of the solar cell module structure snow removing unit according to an embodiment of the present invention from another aspect, the step of determining whether the winter season compared to the input date and the date of the predetermined season, and the season is determined as winter Receiving weight information from a weight sensor in a solar cell module frame equipped with a heating member only in a control unit; determining whether the weight information provided from the weight sensor is greater than or equal to a set weight in the control unit; It is characterized in that it comprises the step of operating the heating member only if the information is more than the set weight.
Therefore, the solar cell module structure provided with the snow removal unit and the control method of the snow removal unit according to the embodiment of the present invention has an effect that can remove the snow accumulated on the solar cell module structure optimally.
In addition, the solar cell module structure with a snow removal unit and a control method of the snow removal unit according to an embodiment of the present invention can prevent the collapse of the solar cell module structure by the accumulated snow, so It is effective in preventing damage.
In addition, according to an embodiment of the present invention, a solar cell module structure having a snow removing unit and a method of controlling the snow removing unit may receive power information periodically and receive power from the control unit only when snow is accumulated in the solar cell module frame. Since the hot wire member is not operated at an unnecessary time when it is supplied, there is an effect that it is operated very efficiently.
