Description

  The present invention relates to a water current generator, and more particularly to a compact water current generator that can be easily installed if there is a place where water flows.

Speaking of energy since ancient times, coal, oil and natural gas have been the main energy, but in recent years, so-called clean energy such as wind and solar energy has attracted attention as an alternative to fossil energy.
However, in the case of sunlight, the power conversion efficiency is poor, and in the case of nighttime or rainy weather, energy is not obtained and is not useful.

  So last year, we announced a device that combines the natural power of solar and wind power, but there is a problem in ensuring stable energy at all times.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and the present invention (hereinafter referred to as this machine) has been developed by utilizing the flow of water that exists everywhere in the natural world and in social life, not only on the earth but also in Japan. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a water current power generation device that draws a water flow into the water flow, rotates a water wheel (rotor) by the flow, and transmits the rotation to a generator to enable power generation.

  In order to solve the problems in the previous term, the present invention has been intensively studied, paying attention to the flow of water that cannot be separated in social life, connecting this machine to the place where water flows, and parts, and taking the water flow from the water inlet As a result of discharging water from the discharge port and circulating water, it has been found that the water turbine (rotor) can always be rotated as long as the water rotates in the machine, and the present invention has been completed.

In the present invention, a pipe for supplying a water flow is connected to the machine, and the position of the water injection port is one of the important points at that time. A water turbine (rotor) that rotates by receiving a water flow on its blades is located on the center axis (spindle) circumference, and the center axis is supported by bearings at both ends and is designed to withstand high-speed rotation. ing.
The central axis is hollow (pipe).

  The water used for the purpose of rotating the water wheel moves to the lower part of the casing rotating chamber while swirling, and reaches the tornado chamber. The velocity energy changes to pressure energy at this point, becoming a tornado, and fresh water rises from the central shaft pipe and reaches the outlet. Further, the sewage in which the impurities are aggregated is separated by centrifugation, and falls into the sludge storage chamber from the space between the separation jammer plate located below the tornado chamber and the inner wall of the casing.

The configuration of this machine is roughly divided into a rotation chamber, a tornado chamber, and a sludge storage chamber, which are separated and consolidated by bolts and nuts by flanges.
A generator is located on the same flange on the rotating chamber, and the rotation of the turbine (rotor) is transmitted by a timing belt or a chain.

  Since the entire apparatus can be divided in this way, the water generator can be assembled in accordance with the installation location, and a construction method that matches the space can be selected.

  The water current generator of the present invention has a wide range of installation fields, from large to medium to small, industrial and household, as long as it has water, and one major feature is the purification of water by using a centrifuge and a flocculant. Because of its function, it can utilize contaminated water and remove radioactive substances from water while generating electricity. It also made it possible to purify contaminated water (red water) containing a large amount of soil generated during tunnel construction and underground construction.

  The water current generator of the present invention can use two or three machines side by side, and if several units are operated with one water source, the water can be fully utilized, the amount of power generation increases, and the problem of purification However, the greater the number of water flow-in, two and three than one, the better the water purification.

  The electricity generated by the water current generator of the present invention is “stored in a lithium battery that is one of the devices and forms a series of systems.

  In this way, in this apparatus, the generated electricity is not sent to the place of use via the transmission line, but is used once in a pool from the battery, so that the management method is greatly improved.
