Abstract

The apparatus has a float (A) in the shape of elongated case with a space at middle for accommodating a shaft (a) to ensure stability of the apparatus, a compressed air chamber (c), a gear box (b) and a wind mill. The shaft is suspended at the middle of the float by its upper part and fixed to base with four screens (f) which ensure stability of the apparatus and vertical position of the wind mill. The windmill pumps and compresses the air in bags (h) fixed to the float.

Description

Cette invention concerne appareil pour convertir en électricité les deuxThis invention relates to apparatus for converting electricity into both

énergies renouvelables ensemble : l'énergie de vagues de la mer et l'énergie de vent. Beaucoup de convertisseurs ont été construits,mais leurs efficacité n'est pas 5)) assez bonne pour générer électricité en quantité suffisante pour que ça vaille la peine de les exploiter. Les avantages de la présente invention sur les autres convertisseurs : a) Plus grande superficie de la base en contact avec les vagues de la mer et plus grand volume,donnant la flottabilité de l'appareil plus importante afin 10) d'extraire plus grand pourcentage d'énergie de vagues de la mer. b) L'emploie d'air compressé dans les sacs à air sous l'appareil, aide considérablement à soulever à tour de rôle le devant et le derrière de flotteur ainsi augmentant considérablement sa performance. c) La transmission de mouvements des vagues de la mer est directement au 15) générateur électrique sans les intermédiaire, sans lesquels les autres convertisseurs ne peuvent pas fonctionner. d) Etant donné que les vagues de la mer vont toujours ( presque ) vers la terre ferme, les appareils amarrés en ligne,ne vont pas gêner les uns aux autres. 20) e) Le coût modéré de la construction. f) L'appareil a la possibilité d'être immergé sous la surface, pour le protéger contre ouragan, en remplissant les deux sacs d'air avec de l'eau. L'ouragan passé, l'eau sera expulsée par la pression de l'air 2904861 2 Appareil pour convertir l'énergie de vagues de la mer et l'énergie de vent en électricité. La composition: a) Flotteur.

Many converters have been built, but their efficiency is not 5) good enough to generate enough electricity to make it worthwhile to exploit. The advantages of the present invention over other converters: a) Larger base area in contact with sea waves and greater volume, giving the apparatus more buoyancy so 10) extracting larger percentage The use of compressed air in the airbags under the device, greatly helps to lift in turn the front and the back of the float thus greatly increasing its performance. c) The transmission of sea wave motions is directly to the 15) electric generator without intermediaries, without which the other converters can not operate. d) Since the waves of the sea always (almost) go to the mainland, the devices moored in line, will not interfere with each other. 20) e) The moderate cost of construction. f) The unit can be submerged under the surface, to protect it against hurricane, filling the two air bags with water. The past hurricane, the water will be expelled by the air pressure 2904861 2 Apparatus for converting wave energy from the sea and wind energy into electricity. The composition: a) Float.

2904861 4 3 Fonctionnement de l'appareil. Vagues-air. Toutes les mesures concernant la présente invention peuvent varier de mesures données dans ce dossier. car ici ce n'est que les exemples. A la moindre apparition de vagues de la mer, la partie A; de flotteur Fig. 1 et Fig. 2 5) commence à se lever .La hauteur de la monté est augmenté considérablement par le sac enflé d'air compressé. Il se trouve sous la partie A; de flotteur Fig.2 h. En montant ,la partie A; équipée avec la perche Fig.lg et Fig. 2g tire la courroie Fig. 1 i, et Fig.2 i, la forçant à tourner la bobine 1, et le générateur électrique 3, dans la boîte d'engrenage Fig. 4,. Le générateur est connecté directement 10) à la bobine 1, Aussitôt la partie A; de flotteur est au sommet, un dispositif dans la chambre à air compressé fait ouvrir la valve d'expulsion dans le sac de la partie A; pour le vider de l'air. ( Les dispositifs ne sont pas montrés. Ils peuvent être construits par les plombiers expérimentés, ou achetés dans les magasins spécialisés.) 15) Au même moment que le sac A; se vide, un autre dispositif dans la chambre à air ouvre la valve d'inflation dans le sac de la partie B; de flotteur. Ainsi les rôles sont renversés; La partie A; baisse et la partie B; monte,tirant la courroie 2 dans la boite d'engrenage Fig. 4. en tournant la bobine 4 dans le sens envers. Avec l'arrangements des bobines et des courroies auxiliaires 4 et 5, le générateur 20) tourne toujours dans la même direction. Le moulin à vent type Savonius rotar est choisi,non seulement pour sa performance mais surtout parce que les changements des direction de vent ne l'affecte pas. Il pompe et compresse l'air dans la chambre à air. Cet air compressé est distribué par le moyen des valves,alternativement tantôt 25) dans le sac A;,tantôt dans le sac B; sous le flotteur. Les paravents Fig. 1 f, sont fixés au pied de l'arbre Fig. 1 a, Fig.2a, et à l'ancre d'amarrage. Ils maintiennent la stabilité d'appareil pour ne pas diminuer sa performance et aider l'arbre de tenir le moulin à vent en position verticale. L'appareil entier ne monte ni descend avec les vagues, seulement ses parties A 30) et B ; ;sont commandées par les vagues .Le flotteur étant très léger, serait enfoncé d'un dizaine de centimètres seulement, mais il est attiré plus profond par le reste de l'appareil. De cette façon seulement le moulin à vent et la moitié de sa hauteur sont dessus la surface. Dans cette position, le délicat équilibre de flotteur est très sensible aux mouvements des vagues même très petites,surtout aidé par les sacs d'air compressé.2904861 4 3 Operation of the device. Waves-air. All measurements concerning the present invention may vary from measurements given in this file. because here it is only examples. At the slightest appearance of waves of the sea, part A; float Fig. 1 and FIG. 2 5) starts to rise. The height of the mounted is greatly increased by the bag inflated with compressed air. It is under Part A; float Fig.2 h. On the way up, part A; equipped with the pole Fig.lg and Fig. 2g pulls the belt Fig. 1 i, and Fig.2 i, forcing it to rotate the coil 1, and the electric generator 3, in the gear box FIG. 4 ,. The generator is connected directly 10) to the coil 1, immediately the part A; float is at the top, a device in the compressed air chamber has the expulsion valve open in the bag of part A; to empty it from the air. (The devices are not shown, they can be built by experienced plumbers, or purchased in specialty stores.) 15) At the same time as bag A; empty, another device in the inner tube opens the inflation valve in the bag of part B; float. So the roles are reversed; Part A; drop and part B; mounts, pulling the belt 2 into the gear box Fig. 4. by turning the spool 4 in the backward direction. With the arrangement of coils and auxiliary belts 4 and 5, the generator 20) always rotates in the same direction. The windmill type Savonius rotar is chosen, not only for its performance but especially because the changes in the wind direction does not affect it. It pumps and compresses the air in the inner tube. This compressed air is distributed by means of the valves alternately sometimes 25) in the bag A, sometimes in the bag B; under the float. The screens Fig. 1 f, are attached to the foot of the shaft Fig. 1 a, Fig.2a, and the anchor mooring. They maintain machine stability so as not to diminish its performance and help the tree hold the windmill upright. The whole apparatus does not ascend nor descend with the waves, only its parts A 30) and B; They are controlled by the waves. The float being very light, would be pressed by only ten centimeters, but it is drawn deeper by the rest of the apparatus. In this way only the windmill and half of its height are on the surface. In this position, the delicate float balance is very sensitive to even very small wave movements, especially helped by compressed air bags.
