1. A system (100) for cleaning solar panels (304) arranged in a row, the system (100) comprising:
a frame (102) configured to traverse along the row of solar panels (304);
a plurality of rotating members (106) interfacing with surface of the solar panel (304), wherein, the plurality of rotating members (106) are connected to the frame (102) to move with the frame (102) along the row of solar panels (304); and
a stationary brush (110) engaged to the frame (102), wherein the brush (110) interfaces with the surface of the solar panel (304) to unsettle foreign particles present on the surface of the solar panel (304), as the frame (102) traverses along the row of solar panels (304);
the rotating members (106) are disposed in multiple rows (502 a), (502 b), (502 c) such that a rotating member (106) in one row is positioned between two rotating members (106) of its adjacent rows;
an axis of rotation of the rotating members (106) is incident at an angle to a plane of the solar panels (304), wherein the angle is oblique;
the system (100) comprises at least a pair of continuous tracks (104 a) and (104 b), each continuous track (104) disposed on opposite sides of the frame (102), wherein the pair of continuous tracks (104 a) and (104 b) enable movement of the frame (102) along the row of solar panels (304); and
a plurality of suction ports (116), a plurality of air blowers (114) and a filter unit, wherein,
the suction ports (116) are positioned towards the stationary brush (110) to suck the foreign particles unsettled by the stationary brush (110);
the filter unit receives the air with the foreign particles and purifies the received air;
purified air is supplied to the air blowers (114); and
the air blowers (114) are positioned behind the rotating members (106) relative to a direction of movement (302) of the frame (102) along the row of solar panels (304), thereby causing the foreign particles unsettled by the rotating members (106) to be blown away.
