Antecedentes de la invenciónBackground of the invention

En la actualidad, y como referencia al estado de la técnica cabe señalar que, si bien los alambiques son ampliamente conocidos desde hace mucho tiempo, por parte del solicitante se desconoce la existencia de ninguno que presente unas características técnicas, estructurales y constitutivas semejantes a las que presenta el aquí preconizado, así como tampoco se tiene conocimiento de la existencia de ninguno que esté destinado a una aplicación similar.Currently, and as a reference to the state of the technique should be noted that, although the stills are widely known for a long time, by the applicant ignores the existence of any that has characteristics technical, structural and constitutive similar to those that presents the recommended here, as well as knowledge of the existence of any that is intended for an application Similary.

Explicación de la invenciónExplanation of the invention.

Así, el alambique solar para desalación de agua que la presente invención propone se configura como una destacable novedad dentro de su campo de aplicación, estando los detalles caracterizadores que lo hacen posible exhaustivamente desarrollados a continuación y recogidos en las reivindicaciones finales que acompañan a la presente memoria descriptiva.Thus, the solar still for water desalination that the present invention proposes is configured as a remarkable novelty within its field of application, the details being characterizers that make it fully developed possible then and set out in the final claims that accompany this specification.

De manera concreta, pues, lo que la invención preconiza es un alambique solar para desalación de agua mediante el que se consigue evaporar el agua salada a través de unas resistencias transmisoras de calor calentadas con luz solar.Specifically, then, what the invention preconiza is a solar still for water desalination by that evaporates the salt water through some heat transmitting resistors heated with sunlight.

Para ello dicha luz solar es concentrada mediante un sistema de lentes y espejos, que permiten llegar a alcanzar temperaturas muy altas, para calentar directamente el agua contenida en el recipiente que constituye el dispositivo así como las citadas resistencias previstas en su parte inferior que, a su vez, también calientan dicha agua.For this, said sunlight is concentrated. through a system of lenses and mirrors, which allow to reach reach very high temperatures, to directly heat the water contained in the container that constitutes the device as well as the aforementioned resistors provided in its lower part instead, they also heat that water.

Este recipiente presenta una configuración similar a la de un alambique, es decir, es un recipiente cerrado con una fuente de calor inferior y una salida superior que desemboca en un serpentín, pero con la particularidad de contar las siguientes peculiaridades:This vessel has a configuration similar to that of a still, that is, it is a closed container with a lower heat source and an upper outlet that flows into a coil, but with the particularity of counting the following peculiarities:

Dispone de una base inferior de estructura metálica, en la que alberga las anteriormente descritas resistencias alojadas bajo una bandeja metálica con la que se encuentran en contacto, y en la cual está contenida el agua a desalar.It has a lower structure base metal, which houses the previously described resistors housed under a metal tray with which they are in contact, and in which the water to be desalinated is contained.

Además, la pared del recipiente está parcialmente constituida por lentes de aumento, abarcando aproximadamente su mitad lateral y superior, mientras el resto de dicha pared es de carácter metálico al igual que la base y se halla recubierta interiormente con espejos, de tal forma que éstos actúan como reflectores de la luz que atraviesa las citadas lentes concentrándola hacia el fondo del recipiente en el que se halla el agua.In addition, the vessel wall is partially constituted by magnifying glasses, covering approximately its lateral and upper half, while the rest of said wall is metallic in character as is the base and is coated internally with mirrors, so that they act as reflectors of the light that crosses the aforementioned lenses concentrating it towards the bottom of the container in which the Water.

Siguiendo con las particularidades del alambique propuesto, cabe destacar que en orden a conseguir un máximo aprovechamiento de la radiación solar, la base del recipiente que lo constituye incorpora medios que permiten su rotación, pudiendo opcionalmente estar dotado de un seguidor solar automatizado.Continuing with the particularities of the still proposed, it should be noted that in order to achieve a maximum use of solar radiation, the base of the container that constitutes incorporates means that allow its rotation, being able to optionally be equipped with an automated solar tracker.

De esta forma, al evaporase el agua salada contenida en el interior del recipiente debido a la elevada temperatura alcanzada, la sal o salmuera queda en el fondo del mismo, depositada en la superficie metálica inferior en forma de bandeja, mientras el vapor de agua asciende a la parte superior del alambique saliendo por el tubo que lo conduce al serpentín previsto a continuación, en cuyo extremo opuesto se habrá previsto un depósito final o canalización adecuada para la recogida del agua desalada.In this way, the salt water evaporates contained inside the container due to the high temperature reached, the salt or brine is at the bottom of the same, deposited on the lower metal surface in the form of tray, while the water vapor rises to the top of the still coming out the tube that leads to the intended coil then, at the opposite end of which a final deposit or proper pipeline for water collection desalted

Lógicamente, el recipiente estará dotado de los medios necesarios para permitir su apertura y poder proceder tanto al llenado de agua para desalar como al vaciado y limpieza periódicos de la bandeja metálica que la contiene y en la que se depositan la sal o salmuera resultantes de la destilación de la misma.Logically, the container will be equipped with necessary means to allow its opening and to proceed both to water filling to desalinate as to emptying and cleaning newspapers of the metal tray that contains it and in which it deposit the salt or brine resulting from the distillation of the same.

Por último cabe señalar que, adicionalmente, se contempla la posibilidad de incorporar una turbina a la salida del alambique y aprovechar la presión del vapor de agua para generar electricidad, lógicamente siempre y cuando dicha presión sea suficientemente alta para ello.Finally, it should be noted that, in addition, contemplates the possibility of incorporating a turbine at the exit of the still and take advantage of water vapor pressure to generate electricity, logically as long as that pressure is high enough for it.

El descrito alambique solar para desalación de agua representa, pues, una estructura innovadora de características estructurales y constitutivas desconocidas hasta ahora para tal fin, razones que unidas a su utilidad práctica, la dotan de fundamento suficiente para obtener el privilegio de exclusividad que se solicita.The described solar still for desalination of water thus represents an innovative structure of characteristics structural and constitutive unknown so far for that purpose, reasons that together with its practical utility, endow it with foundation enough to get the privilege of exclusivity that request.
