Description

The present invention relates generally to power generation, and more particularly to a floating hull that integrally converts ocean wave power into electrical energy and a mooring system with anti-drift capabilities.

Rivers, tidal estuaries, and ocean currents have many power sources with the potential for hydropower. The greatest potential for hydropower is due to ocean currents and waves. The present invention focuses on the utilization of ocean wave energy. One unique method of hydroelectric power generation is to take advantage of ocean wave motion. The longer the distance the wind blows (also called the fetch distance), the greater the wind speed, and the longer the wind blows, the higher the wave. There are areas in the world where waves are always very high due to the conditions for making waves. In wave power generation, areas with constantly high waves are likely to provide the highest economics. Big waves are seen in the rough open ocean with deep water. The present invention can be used in these rough open oceans, shallow waters, and extremely deep waters, and can provide substantially unlimited renewable energy without harming the environment.

There are hydroelectric generators that use ocean waves to generate electricity, but most of them cannot capture most of the wave energy due to the relatively small surface area of the area facing the waves. Most of these generators have to keep the surface area small so that the system can not be damaged by the large forces that can be expected from storms expected for up to 100 years.

In view of this problem, an object of the present invention is to provide a large floating hull and a mooring system capable of generating a large amount of power in water at almost all depths and capable of withstanding a storm of a scale once in 100 years. . An object that is lightweight, has a shallow waterline, has a low resistance coefficient, and floats on the surface of the sea, like a lifeboat, does not move greatly in the horizontal direction in ocean waves, but moves up and down in response to the waves. The horizontal movement of such objects is due to tidal currents and sea breeze. In addition, since the element that most strongly influences the drift in the horizontal direction is the wind, the area that receives the wind is minimal, and the hull with a small resistance coefficient against the wind is less likely to receive the force in the horizontal direction. Horizontal movement, also called drift, is usually prevented by the use of a kite (this is also called a mooring system).

The present invention uses a large, light float provided near a flat bottomed hull that is easily and dynamically moved up and down by ocean waves. The normal force against the bottom of the hull is transferred to the vertical mooring legs of the hull. When the hull is lifted by waves, the vertical mooring legs rotate the generator and flywheel. The flywheel maintains the generator's rotation when the hull descends to the bottom of the wave. Hull drift is prevented by the vertical components of the mooring system in the near vertical direction or the various horizontal mooring systems. By using an optimal horizontal mooring method, the hull can be moved freely in the vertical direction while minimizing the vertical load component of the hull and preventing horizontal drift.

Detailed Description of the Invention

Hereinafter, the details of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The description given by way of illustration is intended to describe a particular form of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

The present invention is a wave power generation device and a mooring system used for power generation, and includes a floating hull 1 and a drift-resistant mooring system 5. The invention of the present application can utilize the wave power of the ocean, and the wave power in the vertical direction can be converted into electric power by the present invention. The electric power generated by the present invention can be transmitted to the distribution center via a transmission cable under water or an elevated transmission cable. The floating hull 1 includes a barge portion 2, a waterproof case 3, and a plurality of power generation mechanisms 4, and is coupled with a subsurface environment 6 that is substantially vertically below with a drift-resistant mooring system 5 with tension. Here, the underwater environment 6 may be the seabed, a structure under the water surface, or the surface of some other object in the water. Since the floating hull 1 does not protrude greatly on the surface of the water and is difficult to see from the coast, the present invention is not limited to the ocean, and is suitable for use on the shore.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the floating hull 1 preferably has a rectangular shape having a tapered portion. The tapered portion minimizes the horizontal wave force received by the floating hull 1 and maximizes the vertical wave force. The barge portion 2 functions as a floating body in the present invention, and provides a large horizontal outer surface to which a vertical wave force applies stress, and maintains related components of the present invention. The barge portion 2 has a substantially flat bottom surface and has a large vertical drag coefficient, and therefore has a large vertical movement compared to other forms of floating bodies. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, a rectangular barge 2 is used, but the barge 2 may be any shape known in the technical field of floating hulls. FIG. 3 shows an example in which the waterproof case 3 is provided on the barge portion 2. Here, the waterproof case 3 provides a sealed space in which water does not enter.

The water storage chamber 42 is provided at a position close to the water intake 41 provided in the barge portion 2, and the water passing through the water intake 41 is sent only to the water storage chamber 42. The waterproof gasket 44 extends from the water storage chamber 42 toward the waterproof case 3 and provides a cavity configured to seal the water storage chamber 42 from the waterproof case 3. Due to the strictness of the structure and the structure of the waterproof gasket 44, the water scattered in the water storage chamber 42 does not flow into the waterproof case 3 beyond the waterproof gasket 44.

The coupled pulley system 43 allows the drift-resistant mooring system 5 to move when the floating hull 1 moves by waves, and maintains the drift-resistant mooring system 5 within the limit range of the coupled pulley system 43, thereby preventing drift. The out-of-plane load on the mooring system 5 is minimized and, as a result, the metal fatigue and wear of the drift-resistant mooring system 5 is minimized. The coupled pulley system 43 includes a coupled pulley 431, a pivotable arm 432, and a base frame 433, and is located near the water intake 41 in the water storage chamber 42 on the barge portion 2.

Since the wave power generation unit 45 is provided in the waterproof case 3, the waterproof case 3 provides the wave power generation unit 45 with further protection from external environmental conditions. According to the embodiment, a partition door is provided in the waterproof case 3 so that the wave power generation unit 45 and other delicate related devices can be maintained without being separated from the drift-resistant mooring system 5 or towing the floating hull 1 to the coast. Or repair work may be possible. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, a rotary armature type generator is used as the generator 453.

FIGS. 25 to 27 show a fifth embodiment of the drift-resistant mooring system 5. The fifth embodiment includes a plurality of vertical mooring lines 52, an underwater structure 53, a plurality of horizontal mooring lines 55, at least one spring buoy 56, and at least one mooring line 54. Each of the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 includes an upper end 521 and a lower end 522. Here, the upper end 521 and the lower end 522 are located on opposite sides of each of the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52. As shown in FIG. 27, the upper ends 521 of the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 are connected in the tangential direction of the unidirectional recoil pulley 451 of the corresponding power generation mechanism (here, the plurality of power generation mechanisms 4 correspond to each other). Including power generation mechanism).

To penetrate. The lower ends 522 of the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 are connected to the underwater structure 53, and the underwater structure 53 functions as a counterweight for the floating hull 1. The plurality of horizontal mooring lines 55 are connected to the periphery of the floating hull 1, and the floating hull 1 is connected to at least one spring buoy 56 by the plurality of horizontal mooring lines 55. Furthermore, the at least one horizontal mooring line 55 of the fifth embodiment of the drift-resistant mooring system 5 is a rigid member so that the floating hull 1 is not affected by the at least one spring buoy 56 in slow environmental conditions. There is a need. Another horizontal mooring line 55 of the fifth embodiment of the drift-resistant mooring system 5 may be a general flexible member. At least one spring buoy 56 is connected to the subsurface environment 6 by at least one mooring line 54. Here, with the at least one spring buoy 56 and the at least one mooring line 54, the floating hull 1 can change its direction naturally like an anemometer and exhibit optimum performance. At least one spring buoy 56 is submerged under normal circumstances to minimize the loss of wave energy experienced by the floating hull 1. As shown in the block diagram of FIG. 28, the fifth embodiment of the drift-resistant mooring system 5 includes a plurality of peripheral floating hulls 7 fixed in place by at least one mooring line 54 and a corresponding horizontal mooring line 55. In addition. More specifically, the plurality of peripheral floating hulls 7 are connected to at least one spring buoy 56 by corresponding horizontal mooring lines 55. Thereby, the wave power farm system of the fifth embodiment of the drift proof mooring system 5 is configured.

The underwater structure 53 of the drift proof mooring system 5 may be a counterweight, a ridge, a previously installed undersea structure, or a frame under the water. Here, the influence of the wave force received by the subsurface structure 53 is minimal. For example, the underwater structure 53 may maintain buoyancy in the upward direction with respect to at least one mooring line 54 connected to the underwater environment 6 and may be always in tension. Since the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 of the floating hull 1 can be shortened substantially vertically for quick connection with the pre-installed underwater structure 53, the underwater structure 53 can be used under a deep water condition. It is preferable to use it. More specifically, the subsurface structure 53 causes a slight negative buoyancy as a result of balancing its mass and drainage buoyancy, and due to the inertial mass of the subsurface structure 53 and the height of the vertical resistance coefficient. The large vertical movement of the subsurface structure 53 can be prevented. Thereby, even when the floating hull 1 moves up and down according to the wave, the subsurface structure 53 can be maintained almost at a fixed position. In the present invention, when the underwater structure 53 functions as a ridge, it is desirable that the underwater structure 53 is constituted by a plane.

Since the plurality of tension mooring legs 51 or the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 penetrate the water intake 41, the water intake 41 includes the plurality of tension mooring legs 51 or the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 in the floating hull 1. It has a sufficient diameter so that it can move 360 degrees freely with respect to its horizontal movement. Further, the plurality of tension mooring legs 51 or the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 restrict the vertical movement of the floating hull 1 by the resistance force of the plurality of power generation mechanisms 4 in the upward movement after the wave front. At the same time, a certain amount of tension is maintained by the unidirectional recoil pulley 451 in the downward movement after the wave bottom. The downward movement of the floating hull 1 unwinds the plurality of tension mooring legs 51 or the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 on the unidirectional recoil pulley 451 to prepare for the next wavefront. The articulated pulley system 43 provides multi-directional vertical movement under the articulated pulley system 43 to the plurality of tension mooring legs 51 or the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52, and the articulated pulley system 43 provides horizontal movement. provide. The resulting horizontal movement rotates the unidirectional recoil pulley 451, flywheel 452, and generator 453. When the floating hull 1 collides with the wave front, the floating hull 1 rises along with the wave front, and the pulling force by the plurality of tension mooring legs 51 or the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 causes the wave power generation unit 45 to move. Rotates and converts ocean wave power into electricity. When the floating hull 1 descends at the wave bottom, the tension of the plurality of tension mooring legs 51 or the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 is the rebound spring mechanism of the unidirectional recoil pulley 451 or at least one secondary. Maintained by counterweight. When the wave power generation unit 45 uses a rotary armature type generator as the generator 453, the tension of the plurality of tension mooring legs 51 or the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 is maintained by the rebound spring mechanism. Is done. More specifically, the unidirectional pulley and rebound spring mechanism of the unidirectional recoil pulley 451 function in the same manner as a starter rope found in manual engine start of a typical lawn mower. The rebound spring mechanism has a plurality of tension moorings on the unidirectional recoil pulley 451 when the hull descends at the wave bottom and the plurality of tension mooring legs 51 or the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 lose tension. The leg 51 or the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 are rewound. When the wave power generation unit 45 uses a linear-armature generator as the generator 453, the tension of the plurality of tension mooring legs 51 or the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 is at least one. Maintained by secondary counterweight. More specifically, at least one secondary counterweight and linear-armature generator uses only a unidirectional pulley and does not use a rebound spring mechanism. The vertical mooring line 52 is connected to the upper end 521 so as to be located around the unidirectional pulley, or the plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 are connected to the first end 521 so as to be located around the unidirectional pulley. Further, the flywheel 452 stores kinetic energy when the floating hull 1 rises at the wave front, and releases kinetic energy when the floating hull 1 descends at the wave bottom. Because the ocean wave force is continuous, the generator 453 is continuously operated by a plurality of tension mooring legs 51 or a plurality of vertical mooring lines 52 at the wave front and by a flywheel 452 at the wave bottom. The present invention can continuously and efficiently generate power.

Although the present invention has been described using preferred embodiments, many other changes and modifications can be applied without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as set forth in the claims. is there.
