The liquid storage part 2 includes a liquid storage container 21, and the liquid storage container 21 may be a container having a regular shape, such as a container having a cylindrical cup shape, a container having a square cup shape, a container having a tapered shape in which the cross-sectional area gradually decreases from the opening portion toward the bottom portion, or the like, but the liquid storage container 21 may also be a container having an irregular shape. For the convenience of mounting and adjusting the liquid storage container 21, a liquid storage container having a regular shape is preferable.

The liquid storage part 2 is fixedly provided with a coupling shaft 22, specifically, the coupling shaft 22 can be fixed on the liquid storage container 21 by means of bonding, welding, screw coupling, and the like, preferably, the coupling shaft 22 includes two shafts which are respectively located at two opposite sides of the liquid storage part 2, and a connection line of the shaft centers of the two coupling shafts 22 can be orthogonal to the shaft center of the liquid storage container 21.

Preferably, the first vibration part 3 is provided on a reverse path LS (refer to fig. 1 (b)) of the bottom of the liquid reservoir 2 (i.e., a virtual circle drawn by reversing the position of the liquid reservoir 2 farthest from the axial center of the coupling shaft 22 when the liquid reservoir 2 is reversed about the axial center of the coupling shaft 22), and when the liquid reservoir 2 is reversed, the bottom of the liquid reservoir 2, in this case, the bottom 21a of the liquid reservoir 21 hits the first vibration part 3, and more preferably, when the liquid reservoir 2 is reversed, only the bottom 21a of the liquid reservoir 21 hits the first vibration part 3, and the opening 21b or other places do not hit the first vibration part 3.

As one mode of driving the second vibrator 4 in a non-contact manner, at least one first magnet 232 may be provided on the rotating portion 23, while the second vibrator 42 may be provided with a second magnet 43 that repels the first magnet 232. The second vibrator 42 may be disposed at any position on the outer circumference of the rotating portion 23 as long as the first magnet 232 and the second magnet 43 can still repel each other.

The second vibrator 42 is disposed above the rotating portion 23, the second magnet 43 may be adhered to the distal end portion 42a of the second vibrator 42, the first magnet 232 may be positioned below the second magnet 43 when the rotating portion 23 rotates, and the first magnet 232 and the second magnet 43 repel each other, so that the second vibrator 42 may be driven to vibrate whenever the first magnet 232 rotates below the second magnet 43.

More preferably, the first magnet 232 includes a plurality of magnets distributed along the outer circumference of the rotating portion 23. For example, the rotary member 231 is provided with a plurality of receiving holes 233 along the circumferential direction, and the first magnets 232 are respectively fitted into the receiving holes 233. This can increase the frequency at which the second vibrator 42 is driven, while maintaining the intermittent driving of the second vibrator 42.

In order to reduce the weight of the rotary member 231, the rotary member 231 may be provided in a gear shape, and the receiving holes 233 may be opened to the tooth surfaces of the rotary member 231.

[ third example ]

Fig. 4(a) and 4(b) show a third embodiment and a fourth embodiment of the liquid energy collecting device, and referring to fig. 4(a) and 4(b), as a modification of the first embodiment and the second embodiment, the liquid reservoir 2 may be attached to the attachment 1 by a third vibrating portion 6. The third vibrating portion 6 includes a third vibrator 61 and a third piezoelectric element 62, the third piezoelectric element 62 is provided on the third vibrator 61, one end of the third vibrator 61 is attached to the mounting member 1, the other end of the third vibrator 61 is cantilevered, and the reservoir portion 2 is attached to the cantilevered end of the third vibrator 61. Preferably, the third vibrating member 61 includes two pieces, the third vibrating members 61 are parallel to each other, the liquid storage part 2 is located between the two third vibrating members 61, and the liquid storage part 2 is hinged to the cantilever ends of the third vibrating members 61 through two coupling shafts 22. The third vibrating member 61 is preferably made of a rigid material such as a long stainless steel plate, and vibrates in bending.

When the liquid storage portion 2 is empty (i.e. no liquid is stored or a small amount of liquid is stored), the liquid storage portion 2 and the third vibrating member 61 are in a balanced state, the third vibrating member 61 is in a state of slightly bending downward under the action of the self-gravity of the liquid storage portion 2, when the liquid stored in the liquid storage portion 2, such as rainwater stored in the liquid storage container 21, is gradually increased, the third vibrating member 61 is deformed under the action of the gravity of the liquid storage portion 2, on one hand, the deformation of the third vibrating member 61 is gradually increased, on the other hand, the relative position of the gravity center of the liquid storage portion 2 and the coupling shaft 22 (i.e. the shaft center of inversion) is also changed, so that the position of the opening portion of the liquid storage container 21 is gradually changed, when the liquid storage portion 2 discharges the liquid when the liquid stored in the liquid storage portion 2 reaches a critical weight (i.e. when the weight causes the opening of the liquid storage container 21 to start to face downward), the gravity applied to the third vibrator 61 is suddenly lowered, the third vibrator 61 generates bending vibration, and the bending vibration is continuously performed by inertia until the liquid reservoir 2 is restored to a state in which the opening is directed upward. In this process, the third piezoelectric element 62 can convert the vibration mechanical energy of the third vibration member 61 into an alternating current electric energy for output due to the piezoelectric effect.

Since the position of the liquid storage part 2 in the vertical direction changes when the third vibrator 61 vibrates, it is preferable that the first vibration part 3 and the second vibration part 4 are respectively attached to the third vibrator 61, and thus the first vibration part 3, the second vibration part 4, and the liquid storage part 2 are all attached to the third vibrator 61 on the same reference, so that it is possible to ensure that the liquid storage part 2 can hit the first vibration part 3 and that the rotation part 23 can drive the second vibration part 4.

[ example four ]

Thus, when the reservoir portion 2 is turned upside down, the mounting member 1 generates flexural vibration as well as the third vibrating member 61, and the flexural vibration is continued by inertia until the reservoir portion 2 returns to the state in which the opening faces upward. In this process, the fourth piezoelectric element 52 can convert the vibration mechanical energy of the mount 1 into an alternating current electric energy output due to the piezoelectric effect.

Therefore, in the above various embodiments, only one liquid storage part 2 is needed to realize the vibration of the plurality of vibration parts, and thus the mechanical energy of the vibration is converted into the electric energy through the plurality of piezoelectric elements, so that the collected energy is large, and the energy conversion efficiency is further improved.

[ example five ]

Fig. 5 shows a fifth embodiment of the liquid energy collecting device, and referring to fig. 5, regardless of whether the mounting member 1 is a cantilever member or a fixed member, the mounting member 1 may be provided with a plurality of liquid storage portions 2, a plurality of first vibration portions 3, and a plurality of second vibration portions 4, and the liquid storage portions 2, the first vibration portions 3, and the second vibration portions 4 are respectively distributed along the longitudinal direction of the mounting member 1.

When the liquid reservoir 2 is mounted to the mounting member 1 by the third vibration part 6, the third vibration part 6 may include a plurality of parts distributed along the longitudinal direction of the mounting member 1. Since these reservoirs 2 may be tilted individually or simultaneously, and when one of the reservoirs 2 is tilted, a change in gravity occurs, and at this time, the mounting member 1 vibrates, and when the mounting member 1 vibrates, the other reservoirs 2 may be tilted, and thus, the energy collected by each piezoelectric element is further increased by the vibration of the plurality of vibration portions 300.
