Description

  This invention is the next generation of next-generation automobiles, new transportation systems and homes, apartment houses, factories, regions, etc. (hereinafter referred to as “energy demand points”) that are actively researched and developed to realize a low-carbon society. The present invention relates to energy supply and the like, and particularly relates to a next-generation energy stand network capable of supplying next-generation energy, taking over and storing surplus energy, and a next-generation energy stand used in the network.

In recent years, efforts have been made to realize a low-carbon society. For example, in the automobile industry, research and development of next-generation automobiles has been conducted with the aim of reducing CO ₂ emitted by burning fossil fuels. ing. Here, the next generation energy refers to electric power, natural gas, liquid hydrogen, fuel cell, and the like. As such a next-generation vehicle, a vehicle that combines a volatile oil such as gasoline and an energy such as electricity, or a vehicle that runs on energy alone such as electricity excluding the volatile oil is considered.

  In addition to automobiles, next-generation energy is being researched and developed in all places where energy is consumed, for example, in homes and regions. For example, solar power generation and the accumulation of surplus power or the sale of power to electric power companies have been partially put into practical use. In order to realize a low-carbon society, a management system and a facility for storing and supplying surplus power are required. In order to spread the next-generation automobiles and the like, a stand that can supply energy to the next-generation automobiles and the like is required.

On the other hand, there is a gas station as one of the main players of energy supply. As a gas station, for the convenience and safety of customers and operators, for example, in Patent Document 1, the angle of the refueling hose provided near the hose feed opening of the delivery unit is equal to or greater than a predetermined value. When the angle of the refueling hose is greater than a predetermined value at a predetermined refueling hose feed-out position, the elevating / lowering mechanism that drives and controls the hose elevating mechanism to further lower the refueling hose. A suspended oiling device is provided.

  Hereinafter, the network of the next generation energy stand A according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram showing a network of a next-generation energy stand according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing a configuration at an energy demand location according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

  First, a next-generation energy stand A including each device capable of supplying, receiving, and storing next-generation energy such as electric power, liquid hydrogen, and natural gas is provided. A plurality of storage batteries of the next-generation energy stand A and power generation devices and storage batteries in each energy demand point E (here, each household) in a certain area around the next-generation energy stand A transmit power from both directions. A control device (not shown) that is connected to a power network F of a possible electric power company and can supply and receive power at the next generation energy stand A and each energy demand point E is provided.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, in this energy demand point E, a photovoltaic power generation panel E1, a power conditioner E2, an in-house distribution board E3, and a watt hour meter E4 are connected to each other, Further, the power conditioner E2 and the storage battery E5 are connected, and a personal computer E7 connected to a monitor monitor E6 for monitoring them is provided.

  In the energy demand point E, the generated power is always consumed by the in-house power load E8 by the photovoltaic power generation panel E1, and surplus power is stored in the storage battery E5. Furthermore, in the case of power shortage, the power consumption is consumed by the local power load E8 from the power network F through the watt-hour meter E4 and the local distribution board E3.

  The plurality of next-generation energy stations A, the respective energy demand points E, and the manager (computer system) G related to the supply and receipt of power are connected to their respective computers through the Internet H, and are related to the supply and receipt of power. An information network I is constructed. In addition, surplus power at each energy demand point E can be transmitted to the next generation energy stand A through the manager G and the power network F of the information network I, and the next generation energy stand A can store this power in a storage battery. The electric power delivered by each energy demand point E to the next-generation energy station A can be received at any next-generation energy station A through the next-generation energy information network I.

  In addition, in the energy demand point E and the next generation energy stand A, the information network I of the next generation energy allows information exchange regarding next generation energy such as liquid hydrogen and natural gas in addition to the electric power. In any of the next generation energy stations A, the next generation energy can be bought and sold at each energy demand point.

  This will be specifically described below. The next generation energy stand A collects the surplus power generated by a private power generation device (for example, solar power generation, see FIG. 2) installed at each energy demand point E and stores it in the storage battery. For the case, the process flow will be described. The surplus power is either the power stored in the storage battery at each energy demand point E, the surplus power among the power currently generated at each energy demand point E, or the sum thereof. .

First, when the next-generation energy stand A takes over the surplus power at each house energy demand point E, the energy demand point E that desires to take over operates the information network I via the information network I. The manager G to be managed inquires about the amount of power to be collected, the desired collection time zone, and the desired unit price when the next-generation energy stand A purchases the electricity to be collected.
After searching for and determining the next-generation energy stand A that can be collected, the manager G notifies the energy demand point E of the availability, the amount of collected power, the start time of power delivery, and the like.

The method for determining the next-generation energy stand A that can be collected is as follows.
Next-generation energy stand A is selected in the order of the shortest distance of the transmission line connecting the next-generation energy stand A connected to the energy demand point E to be picked up and the power network F, and the selected next-generation energy stand A is selected. The installed storage battery is checked whether there is a vacancy in the desired collection time zone. If there is a vacancy, the next-generation energy stand A is determined as the next-generation energy stand A according to the collection, and the next-generation energy stand is selected. The amount of A taken is assumed to be the amount of power corresponding to the amount of free storage battery of the next-generation energy stand A.
The above selection and determination are repeated until all of the amount of electric power that is desired to be collected is allocated to the next generation energy stand A having an empty storage battery.

  In addition, the next generation energy stand A that is determined by the determination method and responds to the collection is notified of the amount of power to be collected and the collection start time. The energy demand point E sends out surplus power through the power line of the power network F at the power delivery start time. At this time, when the next-generation energy stand A corresponding to the take-up and the energy demand points E are connected by a dedicated line, they are used. In this case, power transmission with direct current is also possible. The next-generation energy stand A that accepts the pick-up stores the transmitted power in the storage battery provided in the stand through the power line or the dedicated line of the power network F when the start-up time comes. At this time, when there are a plurality of next-generation energy stands A that accept the pick-up, a plurality of pick-ups can be performed simultaneously.

Next, a method for controlling the amount of power actually taken will be described below.
The amount of surplus power delivered from the energy demand point E changes from moment to moment. This is because the power generation amount of the generator installed at the energy demand point E and the power consumption at the energy demand point E change from moment to moment. The surplus power amount also depends on the presence / absence of a storage battery installed in the energy demand point E, its capacity, and the actually stored power amount.
For this reason, it is necessary to perform control so that the amount of electric power actually received by the next-generation energy stand A corresponding to the take-up and the amount of surplus power sent from the energy demand point E are the same within a certain unit time.

  Therefore, the energy demand point E that sends out the surplus power measures the surplus power actually sent within the unit time every certain time unit (for example, in units of 15 minutes) after the sending start time, and sends the information. , To the administrator G via the information network I. The manager G distributes the surplus power amount to an amount of power proportional to the amount of receipt allocated to each of the next generation energy stations A according to the receipt, and the amount of electric power (hereinafter referred to as “unit time receipt amount”). Is transmitted to the next-generation energy stand A that responds to receipt at every predetermined unit time. The control device of the next-generation energy stand A that responds to the collection stores power corresponding to the amount of power in the storage battery of the next-generation energy stand A from the power network F.

When the next generation energy stand A finishes accumulating in the storage battery,
(1) When the allocated amount is reached, (2) When the desired collection time zone is passed, or (3) When the storage battery of the next generation energy stand A runs out. The next generation energy stand A notifies the manager G of the amount of power actually taken and the end time.

  The control method described above is an explanation when the start time and amount of surplus power are assumed in advance. However, the start time or amount of surplus power is not assumed in advance, that is, an arbitrary amount of power is set at an arbitrary time. The take-over control is also possible. Each energy demand point E desiring to collect an arbitrary amount of electric power at an arbitrary time makes an inquiry to the manager G about the request, and then at a certain time unit (for example, every 15 minutes) based on the arbitrary time. The surplus power amount actually sent out within the unit time is measured, and the information is transmitted to the manager G via the information network I. Each time the manager G receives the information, the manager G searches for and determines a next-generation energy stand A that can take over the surplus power, transmits the information to the determined next-generation energy stand A, and responds to the next-generation energy stand A The control device of the energy stand A stores the amount of power corresponding to the information in the storage battery of the next generation energy stand A from the power network F.

If a plurality of energy demand points E wish to collect in the same time zone, and if it is not possible to collect all of the amount of power to be collected, that is, if there is a shortage of next-generation energy stand A that can be collected, the manager G provides the following options for the energy demand point E. (1) Change of desired collection time zone, (2) Change of electric power amount desired to be collected, (3) Electricity sales to electric power company, (4) Determination of energy demand point by bidding.
The determination of the energy demand point E by bidding refers to a method in which when the next generation energy stand A purchases the electric power taken by the next generation energy stand A, the energy demand point E is determined in the order of low purchase unit price.

When the power take-up action is simultaneously performed by a plurality of energy demand points E and a plurality of next-generation energy stations A, a certain next-generation energy station A has a plurality of “unit times” within the certain unit time. You may receive information on “acquisition amount”. In such a case, the control device of the next-generation energy stand A performs control to change the amount of power stored in the storage battery every time the information is received.
In order to simplify this change control, the administrator G aggregates the “unit time collection amount” for each next-generation energy stand A, and uses a time arbitrarily set by the administrator G as a base unit time. The collected “unit time collection amount” can be transmitted to the next-generation energy stand A every (for example, in units of 15 minutes).
The next-generation energy stand A changes and controls the amount of power stored in the storage battery based on the collected “unit time collection amount”.

  The energy demand point E can request the manager G to end the power collection at an arbitrary time. The manager G ends the power supply from the requested energy demand point E.

  There are cases where the next-generation energy stand A receives the electric power as it is, and cases where the energy demand point E stores it for use at a later date. In the latter case, any next-generation energy stand A under the management of the manager G can be withdrawn. For example, it is the same as charging an electric vehicle at a travel destination stand, as if depositing money in a bank account and withdrawing it at another branch at a later date.

  Next, contrary to the above, when the power used at each energy demand point E is insufficient with the power generated by the private power generation, the power stored in the next-generation energy stand A can be extracted. In this case, the input / output of electric power is opposite to that in the case of taking over, and the processing method and control method can be performed in the same way as in the case of taking over.

  The energy demand point E desiring to withdraw inquires the manager G via the information network I about the amount of power to be withdrawn and the desired time zone. After searching for and determining the next-generation energy stand A that can be withdrawn, the manager G notifies the energy demand point E that desires the withdrawal of the availability of the withdrawal and the start time.

The method for determining the next-generation energy stand A that can be withdrawn is as follows.
Next-generation energy station A is selected in the order of the shortest distance of the transmission line connecting the next-generation energy station A connected to the energy demand point E that is desired to be drawn out and the power network F, and the selected next-generation energy station A is selected. It is checked whether or not the installed storage battery has an amount of electric power that can be withdrawn in the desired withdrawal time zone. If there is, the next-generation energy stand A is determined as the next-generation energy stand A according to the withdrawal.
The search / determination is repeated until the amount of power desired to be withdrawn is satisfied within the desired time zone of the energy demand point E to be withdrawn.
The manager G notifies the next-generation energy stand A that responds to the withdrawal of the amount of drawn power and the start time. When the energy demand point E reaches the start time, if it is desired to charge the storage battery, it starts to store electricity.
The next-generation energy stand A that responds to the drawer sends out power from the storage battery in the stand through the power line or the dedicated line of the power network F at the start time.

When the energy demand point E cannot draw the amount of power stored, that is, when the next-generation energy stand A that can be drawn is insufficient, the manager G provides the energy demand point E with the following options. (1) Change in the desired withdrawal time zone, (2) Change in the amount of power desired to be drawn out, (3) Purchase of power from the power company
In such a case, the next generation energy stand A pays a penalty promised in advance to the energy demand point E.

Next, a method for controlling the amount of power that the energy demand point E actually draws from the next-generation energy stand A determined by the determination method will be described below.
The power consumption at the energy demand point E changes from moment to moment. For this reason, the amount of power that the next-generation energy stand A according to the drawer actually sends to the power line of the power network F and the amount of power that the energy demand point E actually takes into the power network F from the power line of the power network F are in a certain unit. It is necessary to control so that it becomes the same amount in time.
The control method is performed in the same manner as in the case of taking over. That is, the energy demand point E measures the amount of power actually taken within a certain unit time every certain unit time, and the information is sent to the next-generation energy according to the withdrawal through the manager G. The next-generation energy stand A transmits power to the power network F from the storage battery in the stand based on the information.

Moreover, in this next generation energy stand A, the brought-in energy can be exchanged for other energy. For example, liquid hydrogen can be brought in to receive electric power instead to charge an electric vehicle, or it can be stored in an account as a storage battery of its own.
The manager G settles and reports the above transaction for each energy demand point at regular intervals.

  Next, the next-generation energy stand A used in the network according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  When power is supplied to the vehicle, the vehicle is stopped in this stand A under the rail 5 of the canopy 1 and in a space where the vehicle can stop within the range of a radius of about 5 m from this position. Thereafter, the string 13 hanging from the opening 8a of the nearby box 8 is pulled from the obliquely lower position to bring the box 8 to a position close to the vehicle. The string 13 cannot be switched on unless it is pulled from directly below, and when it is pulled from an obliquely lower position, the string 13 moves together.

  At this position, when the string 13 is pulled lightly from directly below the box body 8, the motor 12 is switched on, and the motor 12 rotates to move the horizontal plate 11 from the upper end to the lower end position. Thereby, as shown in FIG. 10, the cable 16 provided with the socket 15 at the tip is lowered. The person holds the socket 15 of the cable 16 that has been lowered, inserts the socket 15 into the battery battery insertion port, connects the socket 15, and starts charging the vehicle. At this time, the cable 16 extends as described above so that it can be charged up to a radius of 5 m. Therefore, it is desirable to hold the socket 15 before the cable 16 is completely extended and take it to the insertion port of the vehicle. .

  Furthermore, the charging status can be confirmed by looking at a display that displays the charging status provided in advance at an appropriate location of the stand A (not shown). When the charging is completed, it is displayed on the display and the completion of charging is also notified by voice. Thereafter, when a person removes the socket 15 from the insertion port of the vehicle and again pulls the string 13 lightly at a position directly below the box 8, the motor 12 is switched on, and the motor 12 rotates in the reverse direction. The horizontal plate 11 is moved from the lower end to the upper end position. Thereby, the cable 16 provided with the socket 15 at the tip is accommodated in the box 8.

  FIG. 11 is a perspective view showing a state in which three rails of the next-generation energy stand according to the first embodiment of the present invention are provided and the box is suspended from each rail. In this stand A, as shown in FIG. 11, a plurality of rails 5 are provided side by side (three in FIG. 11), and the box 8 is suspended on each rail 5, so that a plurality of or a plurality of types of next generations are provided. In addition to energy, for example, electric power, natural gas, liquid hydrogen, and the like can be supplied from the stand A. In the case of natural gas or liquid hydrogen, a hose can be used instead of the cables 6 and 16 and a coupler can be used instead of the socket 15. Of course, other members may be used.

  Next, means for extending the cable 6 from the high-speed charger provided on the canopy 4 and hanging it down in the rail 5 will be described. FIG. 12 is a partially omitted perspective view of the flexible protective frame of the next-generation energy supply apparatus according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. FIG. 13 is an explanatory view showing that the cable can be hung by changing the position by expansion and contraction of the flexible protective frame. As shown in FIG. 12, a plurality of substantially short cylindrical frame members 19 a are continuously supported and connected to form a flexible protective frame 19 for a cable formed so as not to bend more than a certain angle. An opening 1b is provided between the members 5a of the rail 5 of the ceiling back 1a in parallel, and the flexible protective frame 19 is provided on the opening 1b so as to be movable. This is used in the case of No. 5 rail.

  The cable 6 is inserted from one end to the other end on the inner side of the flexible protective frame 19, and the cable 6 is suspended from the ceiling back 1 a in the immediate vicinity of the box 8. Thereafter, the suspended cable 6 is connected to one end of the L-shaped connector 14 from the opening 8a of the box 8 (see FIG. 6). As shown in FIG. 13, the flexible protective frame 19 can be extended and contracted for a certain length with the position where the cable 6 is suspended from the quick charger D as a base point C. The flexible protective frame 19 In the position where the tip is close to the base point C, there are many bent portions (indicated by a dotted line in FIG. 13), and when the tip of the flexible protective frame 19 is far from the base point C, the bent portion is bent. There are few states (indicated by a solid line in FIG. 13).

  Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the second embodiment, another next-generation energy supply apparatus B used in the next-generation energy stand A will be described. FIG. 14 is a perspective view of a next-generation energy supply apparatus according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. FIG. 15: is a perspective view which shows the use condition of the next-generation energy supply apparatus of Example 2 of this invention. FIG. 16 is a partially omitted side view of the inside of the boom of the next-generation energy supply apparatus according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. FIG. 17 is a partially omitted front view of the inside of the boom of the next-generation energy supply apparatus according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention.

  This next-generation energy supply apparatus B is a box-shaped base 21 installed on a disk 20 that can rotate 60 degrees horizontally on the left and right sides, and is erected from the base 21 so that it can rotate 30 degrees vertically. It consists of a boom 22 of a certain length provided. The next-generation energy here is electricity. The upper part of the boom 22 is bent at a substantially right angle, an opening 23 is provided on the lower surface of the upper part, and an openable / closable cover 24 is provided on the opening 23.

  As shown in FIGS. 16 and 17, a pulley 22 a is provided inside the upper portion of the boom 22, and a box body 25 that is long and has an upper surface opened from the lower portion to the upper portion of the boom 22. Gears 25 a are respectively provided on the upper and lower surfaces of the box body 25 which are opposed to each other in the vertical direction, and the annular chains 29 are respectively wound around the gears 25 a, and the horizontal plate 30 is interposed between the chains 29. The horizontal plate 30 is movable in the box 25 from the lower end to the upper end by the rotation of the gear 25 a by the motor 31. The mechanism in the box 25 is basically the same as the mechanism in the box 8 in the first embodiment.

  After fixing one end 27a of the cable 27 in the box 25, it hangs down, folds through the two three-surface rollers 30a provided on the horizontal plate 30, and rises to attach the socket 26 at the tip of the cable 27 to the Further, a socket 26 of the cable 27 is provided through the pulley 22a so as to be drawn out and stored for a predetermined length from the opening 23 of the boom 22 through the pulley 22a. A charging operation button 28 is provided on the front inclined surface of the base 21.

  The height of the device B is about 2.5 m or more in order to protect against risks such as theft, breakage, electric shock, contamination, and electric leakage, and is about 2.8 m here.

  In the next-generation energy stand A, the next-generation energy supply device B is installed at a position where the socket of the energy supply device suspended from the canopy 1 does not reach, such as an end of the next-generation energy stand A, for example. For example, energy may be supplied to a stopped vehicle. In addition to the next-generation energy stand A, there are parking lots and places where cars can easily go in and out, for example, convenience stores, family restaurants, large-scale retail stores in the suburbs, spaces where car wash machines are installed, but not stands. We think that we can install in.

  Next, a method for using this next-generation energy supply apparatus B will be described. First, in front of the device B, the charging outlet side of the vehicle is turned and stopped, the lid is opened, and the outlet is opened. When the button 28 of the device B is pushed, the cover 24 is opened and the socket 26 comes out from the opening 23. The cable 27 provided with the socket 26 is slowly fed out, and the person holds the socket 26 and moves to the insertion port of the vehicle for connection. At this time, the boom 22 changes from a normal locked state when not in use to a used state, and the swing mechanism that swings in a well-balanced manner supports the socket 26 and the cable 27 even if a person has a weak force. You can take it to the entrance of the vehicle.

  When the charging is completed, the indicator lamp attached to the boom 22 blinks (not shown), and the guidance is heard by voice. When a person removes the socket 26 from the insertion port of the vehicle, the socket 26 is automatically rewound by the device in the box body 25 via the pulley 22a, and the socket 26 is accommodated inside the boom 22. The cover 24 is closed, and the boom 22 is tilted and is locked.

  In this next-generation energy supply apparatus B, electric power is used as next-generation energy, but natural gas, liquid hydrogen, and the like can be supplied by this apparatus instead of electric power. In the case of natural gas or liquid hydrogen, a hose can be used instead of the cable 27, and a coupler can be used instead of the socket 26. Of course, other members may be used.

  Moreover, in the said Example 1 and 2, although demonstrated by the case where it charges to a motor vehicle, it is anticipated that it develops not only a motor vehicle but the other thing using electric power as an energy source, for example, in the future. I think it is possible to charge a mobile robot that does housework or work.

  In addition, as described above, this next-generation energy station A provides services for the utilization of surplus power at each energy demand point. However, storage and provision services for natural gas, liquid hydrogen, etc. You can also.

  As described above, according to the present invention, not only the next generation of a plurality of energy supplies but also the receipt and storage can be performed. That is, if it comes to this next-generation energy stand A, next-generation energy can be purchased and processed, and it becomes a next-generation energy integrated station in that area, which is extremely convenient.

  In the first embodiment, the stand A of the first embodiment is newly provided. However, the configuration of the first embodiment is provided in an existing gas station. For example, in one stand, gasoline fuel and electric power are provided. Natural gas and liquid hydrogen can be supplied. At that time, gasoline-type fuel is stored in an underground tank and is transported to the rail 5 on the bottom surface of the canopy 1 through a pipe provided inside the column of the stand.
