JP3243193U - Water storage and circulation system power generation unit - Google Patents

Abstract

A water storage and circulation system power generation unit that utilizes the potential energy of rainwater is provided. A unit comprising a rainwater generator, a pumping device, and an electrical supply to continuously drop water and enable sustained power generation, wherein the rainwater generator collects and stores rainwater. For this reason, rainwater is stored in an elevated water tank 11 by a solar power generation panel 12 or the like that also serves as a roof, and the rainwater stored in the elevated water tank is dropped through a power generation pipe 7, and the water pressure is used to operate the hydraulic power generator 1. get electricity. The water pumping device is provided with a water receiving tank 4 and a water pump 3 for returning rainwater to the elevated water tank 11, and returns rainwater to the elevated water tank through a water pumping pipe 8 to continuously generate power. The electricity supply device supplies electricity for operating the water pump 3 with electricity obtained from natural energy such as the solar power generation panel 12 and the wind power generator 14 .

Description

The present invention relates to power generation/energy.

In the natural world, the water on the ground evaporates with the energy of the sun, rises to the sky, becomes rain, and returns to the ground.
When a cloud becomes rain, the rainwater generates a force as positional energy.
I wanted to make use of this rainwater (potential energy).

The problem to be solved by the present invention is the use of rainwater and water in high places, which lose potential energy when they fall to the ground.

The present invention utilizes the potential energy of rainwater and water in high places, and uses other energy sources (solar panels, hydroelectric power generators, wind power generators, etc.) to reuse water that has lost its potential energy. A pump was installed to raise the water, which had lost its potential energy, to a higher altitude again.
In short, it is a small dam, and a unitized power storage system using water.

In this invention, it consists of an elevated water tank upper unit and a water receiving tank lower unit,
Power generation and potential energy water storage can be easily done just by piping and wiring each.

An embodiment of the present invention (in the case of installation on flat ground) A perspective view showing a hydroelectric power generator, a water receiving tank (lower unit) with a pump and a circulating water pump, and an elevated water tank (upper unit) equipped with a solar panel, a wind power generator, etc. be. Units may vary depending on location. For example, if it is on the pond side, the lower water tank is unnecessary.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a unit according to one embodiment of the present invention (for flat ground installation).
In this figure, it consists of an upper water tank section unit and a lower water tank section unit configuration unit.
As a specific example, assuming installation on a flat surface, the upper water tank unit and lower water tank unit are drawn as an image integrated with four pillars, but in the case of building installation, the upper water tank unit can be installed on the roof of the building. All you need is piping and wiring, and in the case of a single-family home, solar panels can be installed on the roof or veranda of the house.
As already mentioned, you don't need a lower tank next to a pond.
The arrows in the figure indicate the direction of water flow in the gutter and pipes.
