Description

The The invention relates to a solar cell arrangement for the use of solar energy using flexible solar cells for a mastless freight and transport ship with a loaded, partially loaded or empty one Loading area and / or an opening upwards or open cargo space for receiving a cargo, wherein the flexible Solar cells on or in a carrier material to a continuous Solar cell carpet are arranged and a method of use of solar energy with a solar cell array.

Out the prior art, different arrangements are known to use solar energy on sailing ships. Typically especially the surfaces of the sails with solar cells busy.

The publication US 5,131,341 discloses a solar powered ship having solar cells for generating electrical energy. The ship has arranged on its sail surfaces, which extend from the upper transverse trees of the masts down to almost the deck, solar panels. These solar cells drive the propeller in daylight, resulting in a propulsion. An electrically self-sufficient system for a ship, which is driven only with solar energy is also independent of the wind. It is also described that individual selected areas, such as parts of the deck or the roof of the cabin can be covered with solar cells, with a clear indication that this use is to be weighed individually from ship to ship. Not every ship deck is suitable for the use of solar cells due to different circumstances, which are based on the ship design, but there are constellations that make an arrangement of solar cells on the ship deck as nonsensical.

A further development discloses the document DE 199 02 012 A1 , There is described a canvas for watercraft wherein the watercraft is a ship with a sail on a mast and flexible solar cells are disposed on the canvas to utilize the solar energy. An arrangement is shown with which it is possible to obtain energy on a sailing ship by means of the use of solar energy, for example, to operate auxiliary engines or to fill energy storage. The solar cells are in this case arranged substantially perpendicular to the horizon on the ship and are located on a vertical canvas. The canvas is on the one hand led to a mast and on the other hand on a tree mounted and unrolled, the tree is located at the bottom of the mast. The solar cells on the canvas can be retracted and retracted as needed, and / or rolled up, so that they can be rolled up in bad weather or disuse in the tree.

To further optimize the use of solar energy is in the document US 5,236,378 discloses an array of horizontally arranged solar cells in respective horizontally arranged frames, the solar cells being arranged in horizontal planes on and between the ship masts. The masts have perpendicular to these outgoing struts, which serve to receive the horizontal frame with the solar cells arranged therein. It is also provided to use the horizontally arranged solar cells in several levels one above the other on the masts, whereby the surface of the solar cells is increased. Furthermore, it is possible to use the reflected rays from the water surface, since solar cells that are oriented downwards are also located on the underside of the solar cells that are actually oriented upwards. To prevent damage to the horizontal solar cells, they can be moved upwards on the masts so that they can be moved back down towards the deck and back up if necessary.

Problematic The known arrangements and methods that use from solar cells to ships with appropriate mast arrangements is. A use of solar energy to produce electricity Transport and cargo ships without mast structures is currently in the state The technology is not known, which leads to a use the solar energy on mastlosen transport and cargo ships not possible appears. In addition, the use of renewable energy sources, like solar energy in the future also in transport and cargo shipping necessary to reduce emissions, such as carbon dioxide or save other climate damaging gases, which only as Direct saving of fossil fuels is possible.

Farther there is no possibility to directly a ship deck mastlosen transport or cargo ship with solar cells permanently to equip, since the largest part of the Ship surface as loading and storage space for goods, Goods or containers is formed and these areas only temporarily usable.

The present invention has for its object to provide an arrangement and a method that make it possible to load and cargo areas of mastlose cargo and transport vessels regardless of loading state, namely on trips with full load, partial load and without loading with solar cells, so that for a solar energy while driving is usable and on the other hand, during the loading and unloading of the cargo, no impairment occurs. The cargo and transport vessels include in particular seagoing vessels, such as commercial and container ships, as well as inland vessels, such as ore or coal barges or container inland vessels.

Solved This object is achieved with an arrangement according to claim 1 and a Method according to claim 17.

Thereby, that the solar cell carpet surface on the charge, at least however, on the cargo bed or the top opening or open cargo space arranged substantially horizontally is, so can the very large unused area, which is claimed by the cargo, use to solar energy during the journey of the cargo and transport ship by means of the solar cells of the Solar cell carpet to produce. The solar energy generated in this way Can be used to drive by electric motors or fed into the electrical system to relieve the power and power generating units, like main engine, auxiliary diesel or wave generator. This relief results in a fuel economy and As a result, emissions are reduced in maritime and inland waterway transport.

For resulting in solar radiation power peaks or overcapacities The not directly consumed electricity is stored on board at times low solar radiation, caused by cloud cover or darkness, or harbor lay times, during which the Solar cell carpet is not deployed, the on-board system with energy to supply. As a result, high-quality fuel is saved, for example, in the port more expensive diesel fuel instead of the usual Heavy oil is burned.

By the fuel savings will be equally carbon dioxide emissions saved that for the climate to a large extent are harmful. As in freight and transport ship traffic especially in ocean crossings covered great distances Here, there is a great potential for savings both here for the environment as well as monitary.

For Loading and unloading of the cargo will become the solar cell carpet of the charge removed. After removing the solar cell carpet The cargo can be safely and without hindrance for loading and unloading Discharge equipment such as cranes or container loading bridges to be deleted. Ores, coal, containers or other loads can be brought from the ship, new loads and loads can be brought to the ship without hindrance. When the charge is only partially discharged, for example when that ship starts several ports in a row, The solar carpet can also be used on intermediate rides back to the left over Charge be hung up.

Further are not disturbing masts, as in sailing ships, for Mounted the solar carpet provided the loading and unloading would severely affect.

According to the method before charging and discharging the charge of the solar cell carpet of the Cargo, but at least from the loading area and / or the removed to the top opening or open cargo space and after loading and unloading the solar cell carpet on top of the load, at least however on the loading area and / or the upward-opening or open cargo space reapplied. For loading and unloading is the solar cell carpet removed. After removing the solar cell carpet can the charge is safe and without hindrance for loading and unloading equipment be brought to the ship and / or from the ship. Especially can nowadays usual loading and unloading cranes, Container bridges or suction and conveyor arrangements easily the cargo, such as containers or loose bulk goods, from Unload the ship and reload the ship. A partial discharge is conceivable as well as a partial unloading and loading.

If the solar cell carpet has a low form stiffness, The solar cell carpet settles the surface of the charge following about the charge. The solar cell carpet adapts to this Height differences to, for example, when loading with Ores or coals elevations and depths of the surface to follow the charge. In containerized situations where there are some gaps, In particular, gradations on the edge are present, the solar cell carpet the different height levels and heels adjust, so the wind a smaller attack surface to offer, as with substantially exact horizontal orientation the wind can easily attack under the solar cell carpet and this could lift off the surface of the cargo.

Thereby, that the solar cell carpet can be folded together and unfolded, and unfoldable or can be rolled up and down, the space required Non-use of the solar cell carpet greatly reduced and to a minimum reduced. The solar cell carpet can fold several times, folded or rolled up to save space next to the Cargo to be stored for loading and unloading.

If the carrier material is made of plastic, and is preferably a plastic tarpaulin, the plastic tarpaulin being weather-resistant and UV-resistant, the solar cell carpet can also be used as a load securing means or protection the. Further, the long durability, durability and low weight of the plastic sheet are advantageous in the design of the substrate, since the overall weight of the solar cell carpet is reduced, but the longevity is not compromised, although at sea and especially during loading and unloading heavy loads is exposed. Also influences on the carrier material by the sunlight are avoided by the UV resistance of the plastic.

Around a defined place for storage of the solar cell carpet at Pretending not to use, the solar cell carpet has two long sides and on a fixed and a second end, the fixed and / or the second end of the solar cell carpet by means of retaining means on the hull connected to the hull Appliances / Equipment, on deck or superstructures on the Freight and transport ship is attached. So can the solar cell carpet always pushed together to the fixed end, folded or rolled become. When spreading the solar cell carpet is too far Spreading of the fixation prevents, so the solar cell carpet only must and can be pulled in one direction.

Thereby, that a stowage device for receiving the solar cell carpet is provided, the solar cell carpet on the cargo and transport ship be stored protected. This can be a closed one Spatial arrangement, the loads from external influences by falsely charged cargoes or sea water in stormy Lake endures and so the solar cell carpet from damage protects.

If the retaining means are arranged in or on the stowage device are and the fixed and / or the second end of the solar cell carpet by means of retaining means in or on the stowage device is fixed, the stowage is easy to install, to wait and very compact. In particular, the entire solar cell carpet is protected against external influences.

If on the retaining means and / or the stowage device a guiding and holding system parallel to the long sides of the solar cell carpet for the solar cell carpet is, wherein the guiding and holding system in cargo height above the Cargo, but at least above the loading area and / or the upwardly opening or open cargo space arranged The solar cell carpet is above the charge with the help of the guiding and holding system ausbringbar without much force use. The guiding and holding system consists of at least two guide rails along the long sides of the solar cell carpet stuck on the cargo and transport ship are arranged. On, under or in the guide rails the solar cell carpet is held, guided and / or inserted and removed.

Around to be able to deploy the solar cell carpet on a Nivaeu what is above the charge, so that the solar cell carpet without Disability can be spread, is a height adjustment provided on the guiding and holding system. This one will by lifting and lowering devices below the guiding and holding system so that the entire management and holding system can be raised or lowered. The change in altitude is detected and controlled via sensors to ensure that the solar cell carpet is not applied too high and not too low or is introduced, otherwise damage is not excluded are. Furthermore, the sensors are connected to a central Control unit coupled to the height and / or height change processed after a loading and / or unloading process. Corresponding the message of the sensors is led by the central control unit raising or lowering the height adjustment.

The Height detection can be achieved by optical or alternatively trained Sensors are made. For example, sensors on the Guiding and holding system can be arranged transversely to the Application direction of the solar cell carpet as pairs of transmitters and receiver the load, for example container rows illuminate, and thus detect in sections, whether the top edge the charge in the respective section has been reached. The whole Height change can be realized dynamically, for example, during the loading phase the Adjusting the height.

Next the guiding and holding system can also be the stowing device be made variable in height. The adaptation of Height of the stowage device is also by the height adjustment and its lifting and lowering devices carried out. The lifting and lowering device can with be equipped with electric or hydraulic lifting systems, to make an appropriate adjustment in height.

Characterized in that on and on the guiding and holding system an input and output device is provided, wherein the second end of the solar cell carpet is fixed to the input and output device, the solar cell carpet on the guiding and holding system using the input and output device inserted and removed. The input and output device may be configured as a train system, which by motors on, in or on the guide and holding system along the off moving the solar cell carpet. For this purpose, the use of pull ropes is very interesting, since they can take out and bring in the solar cell carpet.

After this the solar cell carpet is applied, the voltage can along the long sides of the solar cell carpet and in the propagation direction be reduced, causing the solar cell carpet directly on the surface of the cargo lays.

If the insertion and removal device on or in the guide and holding system is mobile, the solar cell carpet of a Page with the help of the unroll / Unroll / unfolding directly from the moving input and output device on the Charge discharged or brought back.

The Moving insertion and removal device is characterized in that the Insertion and deployment device Rolling / Unrolling or Ent- / unfolding and / or the stowage device, capable of the solar cell carpet from above onto the load without load for the solar cell carpet store. These are the rolling / unwinding or unfolding / unfolding means as a motor-driven winding roll or as a motor-driven folding arrangement designed so that the motor of the winding roll or the folding assembly is controlled so that the solar cell carpet synchronous to the moving input and output device off and introduced becomes. In particular, by the combination of up / roll-off or the unfolding / unfolding means with the stowage device a direct out and Introduce the solar cell carpet made from the stowage device.

Especially It is advantageous if the fixed end of the solar cell carpet fastened to the ship with fixing means and the moving and spreading device there with those on the moving and application device arranged unrolling / unfolding / unfolding, the second end being fixed to the rolling / unwinding or unfolding / unfolding means is in a rolled up or folded solar cell carpet in one Rest position is. For container ships this is the Bridge of the ship best suited as the superstructures usually overhang the cargo and so a simple construction for height adjustment there on the vertical walls the superstructures of the bridge can be arranged.

Thereby, the stowage device is the unroll / unwind / unfold / unfold means large parts of the solar cell carpet are during protected the insertion and Ausbringvorganges. The stowage device can be a spatial recording of the winding roll or the Aufauf and unfolding device so that it is protected. Another advantage is the protection of personnel, which may be above the charge and into the area of the and bring in. This prevents the stowage device direct contact with moving or rotating parts, that could cause serious injury.

If ever a stowage device and / or roll up / unrolling / unfolding / unfolding at the fixed and the second end of the solar cell carpet can be provided from two sides, namely from the solid end and from the second end of the solar cell carpet that Removal and introduction take place, which increases the time of input and Shedding significantly shortened. This is particularly advantageous if, for. B. at a rapid change in the weather the specified Usability values could be exceeded and the solar cell carpet must be introduced to avoid damage to prevent.

If Securing elements for connecting the solar cell carpet with the Top and / or the surface of the charge, at least however, with the cargo bed and / or the upwards opening or open cargo space, the solar cell carpet is protected from lifting by wind gusts or the like. In particular, the embodiment that the security elements Magnets are, the magnets as permanent / permanent magnets or are designed as electromagnets, particularly advantageous. Here For example, during the settling process described above the unrolling / unfolding / unfolding means on the mobile unit and application of the solar cell carpet by means of flexible Permanent magnet deposited on the surface of the container be and be fixed on this. Alternatively, to Fixation also electromagnets, or rails and the like used on other goods.

In Further embodiment of the method, the application and Removing the solar cell carpet time optimized by the fact that the Removing or applying the solar cell carpet by combining or unfolding or rolling up or unrolling takes place.

If the removal and application can be centrally controlled leaves For example, the overall arrangement can be centrally controlled, monitored and operated. This is particularly advantageous when the operation of the central Control unit controllable from the bridge of the ship is. In particular, a combination with the navigation system of the ship makes sense, so close to reaching the berth For loading and unloading, automatically introduce the solar cell carpet to be able to.

To the different loading of the ship To take into account, the application of the solar cell carpet after loading and / or unloading is done with an adjustment of the height, the adjustment of the amount of height change corresponds to the charge height. This includes the steps of: detecting whether a height change is necessary, detecting the height difference, calculating the height change of the solar cell carpet to be changed, and setting the direction of the height change up or down. Alternatively, a dynamic height change is possible such that a height change command is given prior to deployment, wherein it is detected whether there is charge in the detection area at the level of the solar cell carpet. If charge is detected in the detection area, the solar cell carpet is moved up until there is no more charge in the detection area. If there is no charge in the detection area, the solar cell carpet is moved down until the first charge in the detection area is detected.

Resource-saving is the adjustment of the height by raising or lowering the guiding and holding system ( 43 ).

If the solar cell carpet after application with the charge fixed and fixing the solar cell carpet with the charge to Removing the solar cell carpet is solved is the Solar cell carpet during use before movements on the cargo and especially before lifting cargo or the protected upwards opening cargo spaces.
