Describes the configuration and installation of the pump 9;
Describes the operation and process.

The rotating shaft 1 according to the first aspect has a function of the original rotating shaft, a function of allowing gas and liquid to pass through the inside, and a function of attaching a bearing 15 to maintain stability from a load or an external force. For this reason, the rotating shaft 1 may be a single penetrating shaft, or may be a rotating shaft in which only the inside serves as a gas-liquid passage. Parts other than the necessary parts may be omitted. For example, the middle part of the pipe winding body 2 may be in a state without the rotating shaft 1.

In the non-rotating shaft 19, the fixed non-rotating shaft 19 is provided from both sides to the inside of the pipe winding body 2 with the same axis, and the connecting device 5 is attached. The pumping function of the present invention cannot be exhibited with a shaft configuration penetrating the inside of the body 2.

In order to rotate the pipe by the water flow force, a part of the pipe winding 2 may be immersed in water and rotated. Without immersing the pipe winding 2 in water, the inflow port is extended and the blade or the propeller is extended. Alternatively, a method may be used in which only the screw and the inlet are immersed to rotate the pipe winding body 2, and the inlet 3 is submerged in water for each rotation to allow gas-liquid to flow. Alternatively, a method may be adopted in which the pipe at the inflow port is sunk into the rotating shaft, then extended outside again and rotated, and gas-liquid flows in from the lateral water source.

The "water flow" in claim 1 may be any of a river water flow, a tidal current, and an artificial water flow, and may include a flow such as a waterfall.

The inlet 3, the pipe winding 2, the rotary feed pipe 4,
In addition, the inner diameter of the pipe of the pumping equipment 6 may not be the same, and the diameter of the pipe may be changed to a necessary part as needed in order to cope with a decrease in the volume of the gas or a flow velocity by increasing the pressure.

[0026] Claim 1, "Rotating and receiving water flow ..."
Means that the water flow is about 2 to 10 m / sec at a flow rate of about 3 to 10 m / sec.
8 m / sec is effective, and means that the pump 9 installed with these water flows is rotated in the range of 1.0 to 100 rpm. In particular, the rotation speed is effective at 10 to 60 rpm, but the rotation speed is limited. Not something.

FIG. 1 is an example of a case where the rotating shaft 1 of the pipe winding body 2 is installed at a right angle to the water flow. Although not shown, the blade 11 or the attachment of the propeller or the screw is not shown.
The axis of rotation may be either perpendicular or parallel to the water flow, and there is no limitation. Any method can be used as long as the pipe winding can be effectively rotated. In this case, the pipe winding body may be of a floating type or may be installed on the water surface so as to be able to move up and down. However, in the case of the floating type, the floating body is installed so as not to rotate.

A gas-liquid pump or the like is characterized in that pressure is automatically generated by rotation of the pipe winding 2, and the pipe winding 2 is rotated by water flow to increase gas and liquid pressure. When the diameter D of the body 2 is large and the number of turns n is large, the pressure becomes higher. That is, the head H of the gas-liquid pump or the like is H = K (D−
d) n (K is a constant), effectively 2 to 8 atm
Although it is possible to further increase the pressure, the gas is compressed and the volume ratio of gas-liquid becomes unbalanced, so that the K value becomes small, which is not effective.

As pumps for pumping gas and liquid together by rotation of the pipe winding 2, there are currently known pumps worldwide, such as loop pumps and spiral pumps. There is a water-floating type, floating type, mooring type, loop type pump (Japanese Patent Publication No. 7-65589) which is used in the water flow and has a built-in floating body. (There is a rotatable connector), but there is no rotating shaft, or even if there is a rotating shaft, the inside is not a hollow rotating shaft, so the inside of the rotating shaft cannot be used as a gas-liquid passage, The bearing cannot be mounted on the shaft, it is difficult to fix and install the pump, and the surface is floating.However, since the floating body rotates, the mooring installation is limited. Suitable for gas-liquid hydroelectric generator Not. On the other hand, the pump 9 of the gas-liquid hydraulic power generation device of the present invention is a pump for pumping gas and liquid together by rotating the pipe winding 2, and is configured to use the inside of the rotating shaft 1 as a gas-liquid passage. . Pumps that can be used in the present invention include a gas-liquid pumping device (JP-A-11-201071) and a gas-liquid pump device (JP-A-11-336687) that have been recently disclosed in Japan. Gas-liquid winding pump (Japanese Patent Application No. 11-1030)
12), each of which has a configuration in which the inside of the rotating shaft is used as a gas-liquid passage, and can also be used as the pump 9 of the gas-liquid hydraulic power generation device of the present invention. Hereinafter, the term "gas-liquid pump or the like" will be used hereinafter, including the pump having the configuration in which the inside of the rotating shaft is used as a gas-liquid passage and the pump 9 of the present invention.

[0030]

The "connection device 5" described in the description of the present invention is a device for connecting a rotating part and a non-rotating part in a rotatable manner while maintaining airtightness and watertightness, and is an essential part of the pump 9 for pumping gas and liquid together. In addition to being a component, it is also an essential device for pumps such as "loop pumps" and "gas-liquid pumps."

As the "connecting device 5", there is a swivel joint as an existing usable device, and it seems that several companies are producing it in Japan. This swivel joint can be used for the pump of the present invention. However, it is not suitable for the gas-liquid hydraulic power generation device of the present invention because the direction change and the swing are mainly performed and are not always used for rotation. For gas-liquid pumps and the like, it is necessary to develop more effective connecting devices (pivotable connecting devices).

The type of the pipe winding body 2 is not limited to the one shown in the drawings, and there are many types such as a disk type, a tire type, a horizontal truncated cone type, and a horizontal cylindrical type, but any type may be adopted. Further, a single-layer winding may be used instead of the multiple winding and the multilayer winding shown in the drawing.

As shown in FIG. 2 (e), the "water-sealed state" described in claim 1 means that the gas-liquid that has entered the pipe winding of the pipe winding 2 is separated into upper and lower parts, and This is a state in which water levels are formed before and after the inside and the gas before and after is shut off, and has the same meaning as "water sealing" (trap) in conventional pipe construction and the like. The speed at which the sealed state is maintained is 1 to 60 rpm
m, if the diameter of the pipe winding 2 is large, the number of rotations must be reduced. The number of rotations may be less than or greater than this number, but this is not an effective range. That is, if the rotation speed is higher than this, there is a risk that the sealed state may be broken, and as a result of the experiment, when the sealed state is broken, the pumping force of the pump 9 is almost eliminated.
At a rotational speed lower than this, it is too slow to be effective.

As shown in FIG. 2 (e), the water level in the sealed state formed before and after in each of the pipe rings automatically becomes the water level when resistance (head and the like) occurs after the pumping equipment 6 as a result of the experiment. The difference hi is formed. The sum Σhi of the water level difference hi is the pumping force (head H) of the pump 9. However, in the case of including a head at a high place due to a bubble effect peculiar to the gas-liquid pump, it is possible to at least double this head.

The pumping force (head H) of the pump 9 is mainly determined by the diameter D of the pipe winding, the diameter d of the pipe, and the number n of rings of the pipe. The volume ratio of the pipe, the roughness coefficient of the pipe inner wall, the power loss of the device, etc. are also involved.
H = K · (D−d) · n.

A gas-liquid pump or the like has a unique feature of a bubble effect (air lift effect), which is used for pumping or underwater air supply by adjusting the volume ratio of gas to liquid.
Even with the same pumping force as before, a higher head and deeper underwater air supply than before can be achieved.

The expression "gas and liquid are alternately introduced from the inflow port at every rotation" means that gas and liquid are introduced at a certain ratio. Usually, half and half are effective in volume ratio. To achieve this, it is effective to increase the gas inflow volume by predicting gas compression by increasing the pressure in the pipe winding. For example, in order to generate 8 atm (8 atm) of gas-liquid, the volume ratio of gas-liquid in the pipe is made to flow at about 74% and 26%, so that the gas is compressed at 8 atm. Conversely, it is 26% and nearly 74%, which is effective.

The pump 9 of the gas-liquid hydroelectric power generator of the present invention
There are two types of installation methods: a support system from below (Figs. 1, 3, 4, 5, and 8), a surface mooring floating system (not shown), and a suspension system from above (Figs. 2 and 6). , FIG. 7), etc., but none of them are limited, and may be selected depending on the situation.

The inner diameters of the pipe winding body 2 and the pipes of the pumping equipment 6 need not be all the same, and as the gas is compressed, the gas volume decreases and the gas-liquid ratio changes.
Either place the pipe inside, or
(A), a method of arranging the pipe by changing the inner diameter of the pipe from the middle of the pipe winding body as shown in FIG. 6 (B) is also effective. It is necessary to determine the inner diameter of the pipe of the pumping equipment 6 in consideration of the gas-liquid flow rate and the like.

In a place where the flow rate of water is small, such as a river, in order to effectively use the flow of water, a recess 13 is formed in the bottom of the river as shown in FIGS. When the rotation is made easy to receive the water flow, there is an effect of reducing the waste that leaks. In addition, it is safe to install the pump 9 with a movement adjusting device capable of moving vertically, horizontally, etc. in consideration of a large amount of water or a flood.
FIGS. 1 (a) and 1 (b) show one example of an effective riverbed method when the water flow rate is small, and are not limiting. If the water depth is large, the natural riverbed may be left as it is.

It is needless to say that a screen 14 is provided on the upstream side of the pump 9 for removing the inflow of dust and the like, and a cover for protecting the pipe winding, and an internal and external portion for preventing the pipe winding from collapsing. Ancillary facilities that should normally be provided, such as shoring, are not listed, but needless to say.

The number of the gas-liquid hydroelectric power generators of the present invention may be one, but as shown in FIG. 1 (a), the number of the gas-liquid hydroelectric power generators is preferably increased in order to make effective use of the water basin. When a pump is installed at a location where a water flow area is concentrated by selecting a somewhat steep water area and a plurality of pumps are installed, the water flow area is also reduced, and the water flow area is not left unnecessarily.

The "pumping equipment 6" refers to all the pumping equipment such as a pipe for pumping from the pump 9, and the "spouting device 7".
Connect to.

The "spouting device 7" receives the gas-liquid or the gas-liquid fed from the pumping equipment 6 and effectively jets a water flow to the blades 11 of the water turbine to rotate the water turbine 8. Say the device.

The "gas-liquid separation device 10" refers to a device that separates gas and liquid to be pumped by the pumping equipment 6 and supplies the gas or liquid alone or separately to the "spouting device 7".

"Water turbine 8" refers to a Pelton turbine, a cross flow turbine, a Francis turbine, a mixed flow turbine, a propeller turbine, etc., which does not specify the type of the turbine, and is effective upon receiving gas or liquid jets. To convert to electric power. The type of water turbine may be appropriately selected according to the ratio of gas and liquid, the amount of jet, pressure, topography, and the like.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, the pressurized gas and the pressurized liquid are separated by the high-pressure gas-liquid separation device 10, and the pressurized gas is connected to the water storage tank A via the air supply equipment 21 and installed so as to be able to supply air. Equipment 2
2 is connected to the water storage tank A and is installed so as to be able to supply water, and is connected from the water storage tank A to the jetting device 7 by the pumping equipment 31. The tank is filled with water, and the liquid in the tank A is pressurized with pressurized gas. The pressurized liquid passes through the pumping equipment 31 and is ejected together with the pressurized liquid from the gas-liquid separator 10. The water is spouted from the nozzle 7 to rotate the water wheel 8 to generate power.

As a method of absorbing a large amount of low-density energy of a water flow and preventing damage (natural destruction) to a riverbed or the like, a method of suspending a pipe winding 2 from a portal or a bridge as shown in FIG. This method is a method that does not make any piles or concrete structures on the riverbed, absorbs and uses only the energy of the water flow, and is a method that can be adopted if the location and circumstances can be tolerated by a method with little natural damage.

Claim 4 will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 5. FIG. 1 is an overall view of the gist up to claim 4, and FIG.
Is a detailed explanatory view of the third aspect. High pressure gas-liquid separation equipment 1
After being separated into a pressurized gas and a pressurized liquid at 0, the pressurized gas is connected to a plurality of water storage tanks A and B via an air supply device 21,
A switching diversion device 23 is provided in the middle of the air supply device 21 and is switched to one of the water storage tanks so that air can be supplied.
Connected to the plurality of water storage tanks A and B from the water supply equipment 22 and installed so as to be able to supply water, connected from the water storage tanks A and B to the jetting device 7 by the pumping equipment 31 and 32, and pressurized gas from the high-pressure gas-liquid separation device 10 Only through the air supply system 21,

Describes the configuration, and ~ describes the process and operation.

The fourth aspect of the present invention will be described in further detail. In the third aspect, not only the energy of the pressurized liquid but also the energy of the pressurized gas is converted into energy of the pressurized liquid without being abandoned, and is ejected from the ejection device 7 as the pressurized liquid. In this case, the turbine 8 is rotated to generate power, and the energy of the pressurized gas is not exhausted to the outside. Water tank may be single, but water supply,
Since it is necessary to repeat three steps of air injection (spouting) and exhausting, it is effective to provide three water storage tanks to continuously jet (power generation) so that the structure can always jet (power generation). . However, the illustration shows an example in which two tanks are installed. That is, the pressurized gas pressure-fed from the gas-liquid separation device 10 reaches the switching equipment 23 via the air supply equipment 21, and enters the almost full water storage tank A (or one of B) according to the switching. The pressurized gas that has entered the water storage tank pressurizes the filled water, and the pressurized liquid is supplied to the pressurized water pressure outlet 29.
(Or 30) through the pumping equipment 31 (or 32) to blow out from the blow-out device 7 and rotate the water wheel 8 to generate power. During filling of the water storage tank A, the water storage tank B is supplying water. When the water storage tank A is supplying water, the water is discharged or supplied to the water storage tank B and the pressurized water of the water storage tank B is sent to the ejection device 7 by pressure. Although not shown,
As described above, when three or more water storage tanks are installed, the replacement of the water storage tanks is smoothly performed, and there is an effect of constantly injecting the water to enhance the power generation effect. The water supply to the water storage tanks A and B may be performed by a method using a motor or an engine, or may be performed by a flowing water injection method of a natural flow.

A fifth aspect of the present invention is to effectively utilize low-density water flow energy such as a river, a waterway, and a tidal current for power generation. Is to absorb a lot of energy. The bearing is not limited to the two places at both ends, but the pipe winding 2
At least three bearings 1 are attached to the rotating shaft 1 to secure the rotating shaft safely. That is, since external forces and loads on the rotating shafts on both sides are excessively concentrated and the rotating shafts may be broken, the central portion may be provided at one or more locations to stabilize the load. In this case, as shown in FIGS. 4A and 6, the pipe of the pipe winding 2 is once sunk into the rotating shaft 1, then goes out of the axis again and is wound as a ring of the pipe winding. The bearing is attached to the portion of the rotating shaft once sunk into the rotating shaft. Therefore, the pipe winding is divided for each bearing.

Although the drawings of the present invention do not show details, ordinary technologies are naturally provided as equipment. For example, the water level gauge of the water storage tank, gas volume and water volume adjustment devices, automatic switching devices, pressure gauges, various automatic switching devices, safety devices, etc. Things.

The reasons for using a "gas-liquid pump or the like" in the gas-liquid hydraulic power generator of the present invention are as follows. Not only does not require noise and vibration prevention as an accessory facility, but also because the facility and power costs are low, and there are no blades, gears, pistons, screws, etc. inside the pipe. It can be said that there is no equipment failure due to the simple configuration in which the equipment does not exist. This is because not only the maintenance cost but also the total cost is small. In the section, there is no equipment such as blades, gears, pistons, screws, etc. in the pipe, so even if some solid matter is mixed in, it can be pumped together with gas and liquid without any problem. Pump Therefore, even if the pressure of the gas is increased, the heating energy is automatically and continuously absorbed in the liquid, so that the temperature of the entire gas and liquid does not rise, so that no cooling equipment is required. The liquid passing through the pipe may not be a high quality liquid, and even if it contains some impurities, it can be used as long as it is not particularly bad and can be easily secured anywhere,
This is because versatility is high. The reason is that noise and vibration are extremely small because of low-speed rotation (1 to 60 rpm), and return water (leakage) or return air (water leakage) from a gap between a blade or the like and a casing or the like, which has conventionally occurred in a turbo type or a piston type. This is because no volume leakage occurs and the volumetric efficiency is 100%. The reason is that since the inside of the rotating shaft is hollow and gas-liquid can pass through the inside of the hollow, a bearing can be attached to the rotating shaft and the pump can be securely fixed and installed. This is because cavitation does not occur because there is no suction stroke, and water hammer does not occur because gas absorbs shock.

The following is an example of calculating the approximate number when the gas-liquid hydrodynamic power generator generates power. In the above two calculation examples, it is considered that there is a slight difference between the upper and lower limits due to the desktop rough calculation.

[0055]

According to the present invention, a technology has been developed for utilizing the energy of water flows, such as innumerable low-density rivers, waterways, tidal currents, etc., which exist in countless countries around the world for hydroelectric power generation. This gives C
We have made great strides in expanding clean energy that does not generate O ₂ , SO _x , and NO _x .

Further, according to the present invention, a power generation technology has been realized in which the energy of the water flow is changed to high-pressure energy by the hydraulic power, and the water is converted to a high head even at a small head.

The effect of improving the disadvantages of the conventional hydroelectric power generation is as follows.
Dam construction without reducing river flow by conducting water to waterways that do not change the natural ecology, leaving streams in long streams such as rivers that do not require a high head due to dams, headraces, etc. Since there is no damage, there is almost no damage to nature, and there is no need for dams, tunnels, pipelines, etc., and investment such as equipment costs is reduced.

As shown in FIG. 6, this is a technique that can reduce the damage to the natural environment and, in some cases, does not damage the riverbed at all, thereby enabling hydroelectric power generation.

FIG. 1

FIG. 8 shows a method of attaching a fixed bearing 15 to the pipe winding body 2 and the rotating shaft 1 as shown in FIG.

FIG. 8 (b)

FIGS. 9A and 9B show a method of attaching a rotary bearing 20 to a pipe winding body 2 and a fixed shaft 19, as shown in FIGS. That is, Claims 1 and 2 show the difference in the configuration of rotating the pipe winding body 2 with a fixed shaft or rotating shaft, and the functions of creating high water pressure are the same. is there.

As described above, in the first and second aspects, the structure of the shaft and the pipe winding determines whether the pipe winding is rotated integrally with the "shaft" or the "bearing". Although there is a difference, there is no problem in that the other configurations and the gas-liquid pumping function are considered to be the same. Therefore, the following description will be made mainly with claim 1 (the configuration of the rotating shaft), but the description overlapping with claim 2 is omitted, and unless otherwise specified, claim 2 is also included. The explanation is common to both.

According to the first or second aspect, "the interior is hollow.
"" Means that the inside of the rotating shaft (or fixed shaft) is hollow, that is, a pipe-like shape, and it is necessary that the inside of the hollow can be used as a gas-liquid passage, and the rotary pumping pipe 4 and the gas-liquid inflow pipe There is no particular need for a cavity in the other portions, such as 12, which will be the gas-liquid passages.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, a pipe winding body 2 having a hollow interior and a continuous pipe wound around a substantially horizontal rotating shaft 1 is formed, and one end of the pipe is used as an inflow port 3 and the other end is formed. Is wound around each of the pipe rings of the pipe winding body 2 and sunk into the cavity of the rotating shaft 1 to be connected to the connecting device 5 as the rotary pumping tube 4. 7, the pipe winding 2 is provided near the water surface so as to be capable of being pumped, and the blade 1 is attached to the pipe winding 2.
1 or a propeller or a screw, etc., is installed in a state where the pipe winding 2 is rotated in response to the water flow, and the inflow port 3 is set in a state of being submerged every time the pipe winding 2 rotates.
The blade 11 attached to the pipe winding 2 or a propeller, a screw, or the like receives a water flow and rotates the pipe winding 2 so that the pipe winding 2
The water inlet 3 is submerged at every rotation so that gas and liquid flow alternately. (10) After moving each ring while maintaining the sealed state in which the water level is formed in each pipe ring, (11) (12) The water is supplied from the non-rotating pumping device 6 to the water storage device 7 through the connecting device 5 into the rotary pumping tube 4.
While the water level in the inside is maintained at the height required for power generation, (13) the high-pressure water in the water storage facility 7 is pumped to the power plant 17 to generate hydroelectric power. " Installation is described, and {circle around (13)} describes operations and processes.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, "a hollow, substantially horizontal fixed shaft 19 extends inward from the fixed ends on both sides, and a continuous pipe is wound around the axis of the fixed shaft 19. Pipe winding 2 having a communicating ring-shaped flow path
Is provided so as to be rotatable around the fixed shaft 19 with a rotating bearing 20 provided near the water surface, the opening of one end of the pipe of the pipe winding 2 is used as the inflow port 3, and the other end is used as the pipe winding 2
Is connected to one end of the connection device 5 connected to one end of the fixed shaft 19, and the pressure-feeding equipment 6 that does not rotate from the other end of the connection device 5 is drawn through the cavity of the fixed shaft 19 and then extended. And connected to the water storage facility 7, and to the pipe winding 2,
With blades 11 or propellers or screws,
It is installed so as to receive the water flow and rotates, and the inlet 3 is submerged every time the pipe winding 2 rotates. The blade 11 attached to the pipe winding 2 or a propeller or a screw receives the water flow and rotates. (10) The inlet 3 of the pipe winding 2 is submerged every rotation to allow gas and liquid to flow in alternately.
11) After moving each ring while maintaining a sealed state in which a water level is formed in each pipe ring, (12) gas-liquid passes through the connecting device 5 and does not rotate as the pumping equipment 6 as a fixed shaft 19.
After diving in the hollow of (13), (13) pumped to the water storage facility 7,
While maintaining the water level in the water storage facility 7 at the height required for power generation,
(14) The hydraulic power is generated by pumping the high-pressure water in the water storage facility 7 to the power plant 17 ", which describes the configuration and installation of the pump 9; Has been stated.

The rotating shaft 1 according to the first aspect has a function of the original rotating shaft, a function of allowing gas and liquid to pass through the inside, and a function of attaching a fixed bearing 15 to keep stability from a load or an external force. For this reason, the rotating shaft 1 may be a single penetrating shaft, or may be a rotating shaft in which only the inside serves as a gas-liquid passage. Parts other than the necessary parts may be omitted. For example, the middle part of the pipe winding body 2 may be in a state without the rotating shaft 1.

In the fixed shaft 19 according to the second aspect, the fixed fixed shaft 19 is provided from both sides to the inside of the pipe winding 2 with the same axis, and the connecting device 5 is attached. The pumping function of the present invention cannot be exhibited with a shaft configuration that penetrates through the inside.

In order to rotate by the water flow force, a part of the pipe winding 2 may be immersed in water and rotated, and the inlet 3 is connected to the gas-liquid inlet pipe 12 without immersing the pipe winding 2 in water.
Alternatively, a method may be employed in which only the inflow port 3 is immersed together with the blades, propellers, and screws to rotate the pipe winding body 2, and the inflow port 3 is submerged in water for each rotation to allow gas-liquid to flow. Alternatively, after the pipe at the inflow port is sunk into the rotary shaft 1, the pipe may be extended to the outside again and rotated, and gas-liquid may flow in from a lateral water source. (Not shown)

The "water flow" in claims 1 and 2 may be any of a river water flow, a tidal current, and an artificial water flow, and may include a rapid flow such as a waterfall.

The inlet 3, the pipe winding 2, the rotary pumping pipe 4,
And the inner diameter of the pipe of the pumping equipment 6 does not have to be the same, and the diameter of the pipe is changed as necessary at the necessary part in order to cope with the volume decrease and flow velocity of the gas by increasing the pressure. May do it.

[0028] Claim 1 "Rotating and receiving water flow ..."
Means that the water flow is about 2 to 10 m / sec at a flow rate of about 3 to 10 m / sec.
8 m / sec is effective, and means that the pump 9 installed with these water flows is rotated in a range of 1.0 to 100 rpm. In particular, the number of rotations is effectively 2 to 60 rpm,
It does not limit the rotation speed. The method of rotating the pipe winding 2 by receiving the water flow is such that the blades receiving the water flow are attached to the outside of the pipe winding 2 in the figure, but they may be installed separately from the pipe winding 2 and are limited. Instead, any method may be used as long as the pipe winding body 2 is rotated.

FIG. 1 is an example of a case where the rotating shaft 1 of the pipe winding body 2 is installed at right angles to the water flow. Although not shown, the blade 11 or the attachment of the propeller or the screw is not shown.
The axis of rotation may be either perpendicular or parallel to the water flow, and there is no limitation. Any method can be used as long as the pipe winding can be effectively rotated. In this case, the pipe winding body may be moored by floating the water flow, or may be installed up and down on the water surface as shown in FIG. However, in the case of the surface floating type, the floating body is not rotated, and is installed so as to receive a shaft (a rotating shaft or a fixed shaft).

A gas-liquid pump or the like is characterized in that pressure is automatically generated by rotation of the pipe winding 2, and the pipe winding 2 is rotated by water flow to increase gas and liquid pressure. When the diameter D of the body 2 is large and the number of turns n is large, the pressure becomes higher. That is, the head H of the gas-liquid pump or the like is H = K (D−
d) n (K is a constant) and the effective pumping water level is 20 ~
At 100 m, it corresponds to 2 to 10 atm, and it is possible to further increase the pressure. However, since air is compressed but water is not compressed, the volume ratio of gas and liquid becomes unbalanced. is not.

The head H of the gas-liquid pump or the like depends on the product of the number of turns (number of rings) n and the direct line D of the wound body, but there are also an average gas-liquid ratio e and a sealing level coefficient f. When n is the same, the average gas-liquid ratio e = (e ₁ + e ₂ ) / 2 is the average volume ratio of the gas and the liquid at the inlet e ₁ of the pipe winding and at the highest pressure point (final ring) e _2. When there is a lot of gas, water can be pumped at a high place but the amount of pumping becomes small. When there is a lot of liquid, the amount of pumping becomes small but the amount of pumping increases. This is because these features appear depending on the magnitude of the bubble effect. Usually, it is better to approach e = 0.5. The sealing level coefficient f indicates the state of the formed water level in the sealing state in each ring. The sealing level difference hi of the first ring at the inlet is close to 0, and the sealing level difference hi of the final ring is the highest difference ( Dd) can be formed. That is, as shown in FIG. 9A, it is observed that the sealing level difference hi gradually increases in height. Therefore, the sealing level coefficient f is (D-
d) instead of d), it is formed sequentially as 0- (D−d), and on average, f = (0 + 1.0) /2=0.5, and assuming that other elements are j = 0.9, The approximate expression of the head H taking these factors into account is: H = K (D−d) n K = f × j = 0.9 ×
0.5 = 0.45 Claims 1 and 2 are calculation formulas when the bubble effect is used. H = 0.45 (D−d) n / e (1) H = 0.45 (D−d) n (2) That is, since (2) is to discard the compressed air to the outside, It becomes 1/2. Claim 4 converts the high-pressure air into pressurized water, and estimates it as (2) × 1.3. H = 0.45 (D−d) n × 1.3 (3) However, the formula for calculating the head H is an approximate formula for explaining the purpose.

As pumps for pumping gas and liquid together by rotating the pipe winding 2, there are currently known pumps worldwide, such as loop pumps and spiral pumps. In Japan, applications have been published in Sweden. There is a water-floating type, floating type, mooring type, loop type pump (Japanese Patent Publication No. 7-65589) which is used in the water flow and has a built-in floating body. (There is a rotatable connector), but there is no rotating shaft, or even if there is a rotating shaft, the inside is not a hollow rotating shaft, so the inside of the rotating shaft cannot be used as a gas-liquid passage, The bearing cannot be mounted on the shaft, it is difficult to fix and install the pump, and the surface is floating.However, since the floating body rotates, the mooring installation is limited. Suitable for gas-liquid hydroelectric generator Not. On the other hand, the pump 9 of the gas-liquid hydraulic power generation device of the present invention is a pump for pumping gas and liquid together by rotating the pipe winding 2, and is configured to use the inside of the rotating shaft 1 as a gas-liquid passage. . Pumps that can be used in the present invention include a gas-liquid pumping device (JP-A-11-201071) and a gas-liquid pump device (JP-A-11-336687) that have been recently disclosed in Japan. Gas-liquid winding pump (Japanese Patent Application No. 11-1030)
12), each of which has a configuration in which the inside of the rotating shaft is used as a gas-liquid passage, and can also be used as the pump 9 of the gas-liquid hydraulic power generation device of the present invention. Hereinafter, the term "gas-liquid pump or the like" will be used hereinafter, including the pump having the configuration in which the inside of the rotating shaft is used as a gas-liquid passage and the pump 9 of the present invention.

[0033]

The "connection device 5" described in the description of the present invention is a device for connecting a rotating part and a non-rotating part in a rotatable manner while maintaining airtightness and watertightness, and is an essential part of a pump 9 for pumping gas and liquid together. In addition to being a component, it is also an essential device for pumps such as "loop pumps" and "gas-liquid pumps."

As the “connecting device 5”, there is a swivel joint as an existing usable device, and it seems that several companies are producing it in Japan. This swivel joint can be used for the pump of the present invention. However, it is not suitable for the gas-liquid hydraulic power generation device of the present invention because the direction change and the swing are mainly performed and are not always used for rotation. For gas-liquid pumps and the like, it is necessary to develop more effective connecting devices (pivotable connecting devices).

The type of the pipe winding body 2 is not limited to the one shown in the drawings, and there are many types such as a disk type, a tire type, a horizontal truncated cone type, and a horizontal cylindrical type, but any type may be adopted. Further, a single-layer winding may be used instead of the multiple winding and the multilayer winding shown in the drawing.

As shown in FIG. 2 (e), the "water-sealed state" described in claim 1 means that the gas-liquid that has entered the pipe of the pipe winding body 2 is separated into upper and lower parts, and This is a state in which water levels are formed before and after the inside and the gas before and after is shut off, and has the same meaning as "water sealing" (trap) in conventional pipe construction and the like. The speed at which the sealed state is maintained is 1 to 60 rpm
m, if the diameter of the pipe winding 2 is large, the number of rotations must be reduced. The number of rotations may be less than or greater than this number, but this is not an effective range. That is, at a rotation speed higher than this, the frictional force and centrifugal force between the water and the pipe wall surface become large, and there is a danger that the sealed state is broken. According to the results of the experiment, when the sealed state is broken, the pumping force of the pump 9 is almost reduced. Disappears. At a rotational speed lower than this, it is too slow to be effective.

A gas-liquid pump or the like does not require any centrifugal force, and has the advantage of low frictional resistance because of low speed rotation (about 1 to 60 rpm). Therefore, effective pumping force at low speed rotation by water flow force It gives birth.

A gas-liquid pump or the like has a bubble effect (air lift effect) as a unique feature. The gas-liquid pump is used for water pumping or underwater air supply by adjusting the gas-liquid ratio (liquid / (gas + liquid)). Therefore, even with the same pumping force as before, a higher head and deeper underwater air feeding than before can be achieved.

As for the volume ratio of gas and liquid, it is effective to reduce the amount of liquid at the time of inflow and increase the amount of gas in consideration of the volume reduction of gas accompanying the increase in pressure. In this case, it is effective that the average volume ratio of the entire gas-liquid of the volume at the inflow port and the volume at the time of maximum pressurization approaches half and half. For example, the volume ratio of gas to liquid at the inlet is 2/1, the volume ratio at the time of maximum pressurization is 1/2, the volume ratio of the entire average is halved, and the gas-liquid ratio e = 0.5. It is effective to set [e = liquid / (gas + liquid)].

As shown in FIG. 2 (e), the water level in the sealed state formed before and after in each of the pipe rings is automatically set when a resistance (head or the like) occurs after the pumping equipment 6 as a result of the experiment. The water level difference hi is formed. The sum Σhi of the water level difference hi is the pumping force (head H) of the pump 9. However, in the case of including a head at a high place due to a bubble effect peculiar to the gas-liquid pump, it is possible to at least double this head.

By adjusting the volume ratio of gas and liquid in the pipe ring, the magnitude of the head can be adjusted.
Increasing the amount of gas increases the head but decreases the amount of pumped water. Conversely, increasing the amount of water decreases the head but increases the amount of pumped water. In any case, as compared with the conventional pumping of the liquid alone, a higher head than before can be achieved even at the same pressure. For example, pumping up to 80 m at a pressure of 4 atm is also possible and can be used at 8 atm for power generation, but the pumping amount (the amount of water available for power generation) is almost halved.

The expression "gas and liquid are alternately introduced from the inflow port at every rotation" means that gas and liquid are introduced at a certain ratio as described above. In order to obtain a high pressure, it is effective to increase the inflow volume of the gas by predicting the compression of the gas by increasing the pressure with a pipe winding body. For example, in order to generate a gas-liquid of 6 atm (6 atm), the volume ratio of the gas-liquid in the pipeline is 71% and 29%.
The gas is compressed at a pressure of about 6 atm when the pressure is about 6 atm. On the contrary, the gas-liquid ratio e becomes 0.5 at 29% and almost 71%, which is effective. When pumping at 6 atm, it is possible to secure a head of 100 m or more.
Hydraulic power can be generated at a water pressure of 0 atm.

The pump 9 of the gas-liquid hydraulic power generator according to the present invention.
Can be installed from below (Figs. 1, 3, 4, 5, and 8), floating above the water (not shown), and suspended from above (Figs. 2, 6, FIG. 7) and the like are not limited, and selection may be made based on the situation.

The inner diameters of the pipe winding 2 and the pipes of the pumping equipment 6 need not be all the same, and as the gas is compressed, the volume of the gas decreases and the gas-liquid ratio changes.
Either place the pipe inside, or
(A), a method of arranging the pipe by changing the inner diameter of the pipe from the middle of the pipe winding body as shown in FIG. 6 (B) is also effective. It is necessary to determine the inner diameter of the pipe of the pumping equipment 6 in consideration of the gas-liquid flow rate and the like.

The water storage facility 7 is a facility for converting the energy of the water flow into the energy of the height. The water storage facility 7 secures the water supply in a small area, controls the water level, and regulates the water flow from the gas-liquid pump. It is a facility that supplies the required amount of water, and is similar to the role of a conventional surge tank for hydroelectric power generation, and may be a chimney in appearance.

In places such as rivers where the water flow rate is small, in order to effectively use the water flow, a water bottom recess 13 is formed in the riverbed as shown in FIGS. When the rotation is made easy to receive the water flow, there is an effect of reducing the waste that leaks. In addition, it is safe to install the pump 9 with a movement adjusting device capable of moving vertically, horizontally, etc. in consideration of a large amount of water or a flood.
FIGS. 1 (a) and 1 (b) show one example of an effective riverbed method when the water flow rate is small, and are not limiting. If the water depth is large

FIG. 9 may leave the natural riverbed as it is.

Needless to say, a screen 14 is provided on the upstream side of the pump 9 for removing the inflow of dust and the like, and a cover for protecting the pipe winding, and an internal and external portion for preventing the pipe winding from collapsing. Ancillary facilities that should normally be provided, such as shoring, are not listed, but needless to say.

The number of the gas-liquid hydroelectric power generators of the present invention may be one, but as shown in FIG. 1 (a), the number of the gas-liquid hydraulic power generators is preferably increased in order to use the water basin effectively. The location of the pump can be selected by selecting a slightly rapid area and concentrating the water flow and installing multiple pumps, which not only has the effect of reducing the flow of water, but also has the effect of reducing the energy of the water flow without wasting the water flow area. It leads to the use of it.

As a method of absorbing a large amount of low-density energy of a water flow and preventing damage (natural destruction) to a riverbed or the like, a method of suspending a pipe winding 2 from a portal or a bridge as shown in FIG. This method is a method that does not make any piles or concrete structures on the riverbed, absorbs and uses only the energy of the water flow, and is a method that can be adopted if the location and circumstances can be tolerated by a method with little natural damage.

The "pumping equipment 6" refers to all of the equipment for pumping, such as a pipe for pumping from the pump 9, and refers to equipment for pumping to a destination such as the water storage equipment 7 or the gas-liquid separation equipment 10.

The "gas-liquid separation device 10" refers to a device that separates gas-liquid to be pumped by the pumping equipment 6 and sends gas and liquid to the power plant 17 individually or separately.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, the high-pressure gas-liquid separator 10 separates the pressurized air and the pressurized water, and only the pressurized water is pumped from the hydraulic pipe 8 to the power plant 17 to generate power. Since it is not used for lifting as in claims 1 and 2, there is no bubble effect and pressurized air may be discharged to the outside.

Claim 4 will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 5. FIG. 1 is an overall view of the gist up to claim 4, and FIG.
Is a detailed explanatory view of the third aspect. High pressure gas-liquid separation equipment 1
0, the high-pressure air and the high-pressure water are separated, and the high-pressure air is connected to the water storage tank A and the water storage tank B via the gas supply equipment 21 through the gas switching equipment 23, and is installed so as to be able to supply air to either one of them.
High-pressure gas-liquid separation, in which the water supply equipment 22 is connected to the water storage tank A and the water storage tank B via the liquid switching equipment 24 and is installed so that water can be supplied to either one of them, and the water storage tank A or the water storage tank B is connected to the hydraulic pipe 8. Only the high-pressure air from the device 10 is supplied to the substantially full water storage tank A or the water storage tank B through the air supply equipment 21, and the liquid in the water storage tank A or the water storage tank B is pressurized by the high-pressure air to be pressurized. The gas-liquid hydraulic power generation device according to claim 3, wherein the liquid is pumped from the water pressure tube 8 to the power plant 17 together with the pressurized water from the gas-liquid separation device 10 through the water pressure tube 8 to generate hydraulic power. In this, ~ describes the configuration, and ~ describes the process and operation.

The fourth aspect of the present invention will be described in further detail. In the fourth aspect, not only the energy of the pressurized liquid but also the energy of the pressurized gas is converted into the energy of the pressurized liquid without being abandoned, and the energy is sent from the hydraulic pipe 8 to the power plant. It is used for power generation and does not wastefully release the energy of pressurized air to the outside. Although a single water storage tank may be used, it is necessary to repeat three steps of water supply, air supply (spout), and exhaust. Therefore, in order to continuously spout (power generation), three water storage tanks are provided and used repeatedly. It is effective to make a structure that can always eject (generate power). However, the illustration shows an example in which two tanks are installed.

The fourth aspect of the present invention will be described in further detail. That is, the pressurized gas sent from the gas-liquid separation device 10 reaches the switching device 23 via the air supply device 21 and changes according to the switching.
The storage tank A (or one of B) is almost completely filled. The pressurized gas that has entered the water storage tank pressurizes the full water storage, and the pressurized liquid is supplied to the pressurized water supply port 29 (or 3).
0) through the pumping pipe 8 to the power station to generate power. During the filling of the water storage tank A, the water storage tank B is supplying water. When the water storage tank A is supplying water, the pressurized water of the water storage tank B is pumped to the power plant 17 by exhausting or filling the water storage tank B. Although not shown,
As described above, when three or more water storage tanks are installed, replacement of the water storage tanks is smoothly performed, and there is an effect that the pressurized water is constantly pumped to enhance the power generation effect. Water injection from the outside into the water storage tanks A and B may be performed by a method using a motor or an engine, or may be performed by a method of injecting natural flowing water.

According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, when the amount of water in the pipe winding increases, the load and external force on the rotary shaft increase, causing inconvenience in the bearing of the rotary shaft. To prevent this, an additional bearing is provided in the middle of the rotary shaft. This is for smooth rotation. In addition, low-density water flow energy such as rivers, water courses, and tidal currents is effectively used for power generation.
This is because the diameter of the pipe winding is increased and a large amount of low-density energy of the water flow is absorbed. The bearing is not limited to the two places at both ends, but is attached to the rotating shaft 1 of the pipe winding 2.
At least a plurality of bearings 1 are mounted to secure the rotating shaft safely. That is, since external forces and loads on the rotating shafts on both sides are excessively concentrated and there is a risk that the rotating shafts may be broken, for example, one or more portions may be provided at the center for stability of the load. In this case, as shown in FIGS. 4A and 6, the pipe of the pipe winding 2 is once sunk into the rotating shaft 1, then goes out of the shaft again and is wound as a ring of the pipe winding. The bearing is attached to the portion of the rotating shaft once sunk into the rotating shaft. Therefore, the rotating shaft is the same, but the pipe winding is divided for each bearing.

Although the drawings of the present invention do not show details in detail, the technology usually required is naturally provided in equipment.
For example, a water level gauge of a water storage tank, an adjusting device for gas amount and water amount, an automatic switching device, a pressure gauge, various automatic switching devices,
The safety device, the cover outside the pipe winding body, etc. are all provided with ordinary equipment.

The reason for using a "gas-liquid pump or the like" in the gas-liquid hydraulic power generation device of the present invention is as follows. This is because a high pressure state can be created. Cavitation does not occur because there is no suction stroke,
This is because the gas absorbs the impact and no water hammer occurs. Because gas and liquid are mixed, high-pressure energy can be stored in gas and pumped. A bubble effect (air lift effect) occurs, and there is a possibility that the lift will be more than double the conventional pressure even at the same pressure. Since the pump has a simple configuration without any equipment such as blades, gears, pistons, screws, etc., it can be said that there is no equipment failure.This is because not only the maintenance cost but also the total cost can be reduced. Even if impurities and some solid matter are mixed in,
This is because it can be pumped together with gas and liquid without any problem. This is because noise and vibration are extremely small due to low-speed rotation (1 to 60 rpm), and there is no return water or residual water from the gap between the blades and the casing, which occurred in the conventional turbo-type or piston-type, and volumetric efficiency. Is 100%.

The following is an example of approximate calculation in the case of power generation by the gas-liquid hydraulic power generator. Estimation example (

Example of trial calculation (

The above formulas and calculated values assert the gist and idea of the present invention, and do not include many other elements, which may cause some deviation from academic and practical contents.
For this reason, it is considered that there is actually some width in the vertical direction.

[0062]

According to the present invention, there has been developed a technology for utilizing the energy of abundant water flows, such as low-density rivers, waterways, tidal currents, etc., innumerable in the world for hydroelectric power generation. This has made a great strides toward expanding clean energy without generating CO ₂ , SO _x , and NO _x .

Further, according to the present invention, a technique is realized in which a part of the water flow of a small head is pumped to a high place by a water flow force, and is converted into a high head and high pressure water to generate power.

Furthermore, according to the present invention, a part of the water flow of the small head is converted into high pressure water equivalent to the high head by the hydraulic power, and the high pressure water from the high pressure tank (high pressure gas-liquid separation device 10) is converted. The technology to use water for hydropower has been realized.

Further, according to the present invention, even when the pipe winding is large, it is possible to mount the bearing at a necessary place in the case of supporting or suspending the rotating body (the pipe winding),
A technology that can be used for relatively large-scale power generation has been realized.

The effect of improving the disadvantages of the conventional hydroelectric power generation is as follows.
Dam construction without reducing river flow by conducting water to waterways that do not change the natural ecology, leaving streams in long streams such as rivers that do not require a high head due to dams, headraces, etc. Since there is no damage, there is almost no damage to nature, and there is no need for dams, tunnels, pipelines, etc., and investment such as equipment costs is reduced.

As shown in FIG. 7, a technique has been established which can reduce the damage to the natural environment, and in some cases, does not damage the riverbed at all, and enables hydroelectric power generation.
