Description

Floating type waterpower generator

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a hydroelectric generator, and more particularly, to a hydroelectric generator that generates electricity by flowing on a stream of a narrow strait or a river in a canyon.

In addition to the fact that the global environment is polluted and destroyed by the use of fossil fuels, many researches and investments are being made on the use of natural resources at the time when fossil fuels are depleted.

The use of nature-friendly resources is generally represented by technologies using water, wind, and solar power. Among them, hydroelectric power generation system is not only environmentally friendly compared to conventional thermal power generation or nuclear power generation, but also in terms of operating costs. Is recognized as a very useful technology because it can produce high quality power at low cost.

In general, hydroelectric power is a method of converting potential energy of water located at a high place into operating energy of a generator turbine and obtaining electricity by using electromagnetic induction inside the generator. For hydroelectric power, a dam is formed by blocking a river and upstream of the dam. The water is trapped and the water gate is opened and dropped to the downstream of the dam to turn the turbine. In such a hydroelectric system, in the construction method of dams that block the river, cement and embankment work cannot be carried out underwater when the foundation of the dam is established. You will be working. In the case of wind power generation, the amount of power generation is not constant depending on the strength or duration of the wind, whereas hydropower generation using the strong waves of rivers or narrow straits in continental canyons can obtain much higher quality power. Underwater installation work is fundamentally difficult, and in particular, the stronger the flow of water, the more difficult the work is.

On the other hand, it is possible to install the fixture of the generator underwater in order to use tidal power and natural hydropower, but it is possible with modern technology, but due to the enormous construction cost, the cost of power generation is high and economical As it falls, it is not active.

Theoretically, there are many economical ways to install generators underwater, but another reason why economic problems have prevented them from being activated is that algal gorges usually have low seabed or riverbed quality. In many cases, it is almost impossible to install structures.

In addition, there has been a proposal to generate a barge loaded with a submersible generator in the water, but the barge itself acts as a resistor, which may cause it to be lost by strong water or algae. There is a problem to evacuate if it occurs.

As shown in Figs. 1 to 4, the type hydroelectric generator of this embodiment includes at least one generator 1 for generating electricity by water flow, and a bracket on which the generator 1 is mounted. 2), a fixing binding member for fixing the bracket 2 in the water flow direction, and a suspension binding member 4 for suspending the bracket 2; The explanation is as follows.

First, the generator 1 is the same as a conventional aberration generator used in tidal power generation. In this embodiment, a plurality of generators are mounted on the upper and lower surfaces of the bracket 2, respectively. It can be adjusted according to the environment and conditions in which the hydroelectric generator of the present invention is installed.

The bracket 2 has a flat plate shape and can be classified by water flow to a depth close to the water surface in the river or sea water. In this embodiment, the flat body has a rectangular cross-sectional structure. The plurality of generators 1 are mounted on the upper and lower surfaces thereof by the fixed frame 2a, respectively. In addition, four corner portions of the bracket 2 are provided with first connecting rings 2b and second connecting rings 2c, respectively, and the first connecting rings 2b are four corners of the floating body 2. It is provided in the water flow direction at the site, the second connecting rings (2c) are provided in the upper surface direction on the drawing at the four corners of the bracket (2).

As shown in FIG. 4, the fastening binding member connects the first link 2b of the bracket 2 to the fixed point P of the land, thereby connecting the bracket 2 to the fixed point P of the land. In the middle of the fixing binding member, there is interposed a buoy 5 for easily grasping the position of the bracket 2 submerged in the water. Specific elements constituting the fastening member include a first fastening member 3, a second fastening member 8, a turning ring 7, and a third fastening member 6. have. The first fixing binding member 3 is connected to the first connecting ring 2b and the buoy 5 by binding both ends to the first connecting ring 2b and the buoy 5 of the bracket 2. , The second fixing binding member 8 is connected to the fixed point (P) located on both sides of the land. Then, the turning ring (7) is provided in pairs at intervals similar to the width of the bracket (2) in the middle of the second fixing member (8), the third fixing member (6) is a change of direction By connecting the ring 7 and the buoy 5, respectively, the second fixing binding member 8 is switched to bend in parallel with the water flow direction.

At this time, so that the load acting on the buoy 5 can be minimized, the first fastening member 2b to the first fastening member 3, the buoy 5, and the third fastening member 6 to be minimized. , It is preferable to be arranged in a straight line up to the turning ring (7).

The suspension binding members 4 have one end coupled to the second connecting rings 2c of the bracket 2 and the other end connected to the suspension support C such as a crane on the land side. It will serve to suspend (2).

In the present specification, the first fastening member 3, the second fastening member 8, and the third fastening member 6, the suspension fastening member 4 are various types of chains, wire ropes, cables, and the like. It can be applied as a means, it is preferable to use a stainless steel chain or high strength synthetic fiber ropes having excellent corrosion resistance and strength in consideration of corrosion and strength by water. In addition, the general wire rope is not only corroded easily when it comes in contact with water (especially seawater), but also has a short life due to severe abrasion at the parts affected by water flow. However, when the suspension 2 is suspended in a fixed state, it is preferable to use the stainless steel chain or the like.

The following describes an example in which the class hydroelectric generator of the present invention configured as described above is applied to an actual site.

FIG. 5 is a view conceptually showing a state where the class hydroelectric generator of the present invention is viewed toward one shore in a state in which both sides of a narrow strait are installed, and with reference to FIG. 4 described above. Explain how a class water flow generator is installed on both sides of a narrow strait.

Firstly, the fixed point (P: P) to be connected to the first connecting ring 2b of the bracket 2 in each of the four lands of the strait, and the suspension as a means for suspending the bracket 2, respectively. The suspension support C to be connected to the second connecting ring 2c of the bracket 2 is installed at four points between the points P. Here, the suspension support part C is demonstrated and illustrated by the crane C. As shown in FIG.

Then, in the state where the generator 1 is mounted on the bracket 2, the crane C on the land and the bracket 2 are first connected by a wire rope (not shown) to connect the bracket 2 to the bracket 2. Place it above the surface of the water. The wire rope is limited to fixing large weights that are corrosive and flowable in water, so it is used only for placing the float 2 on the water surface in consideration of safety.

Subsequently, in a state in which the second connecting ring 2c of the bracket 2 and the crane C are connected by a suspension binding member 4 such as a stainless steel chain, the suspension binding member 4 is wound and tensioned. When the bracket 2 is in a suspended state, the wire rope is recovered, and the suspension binding member 4 is released again while the bracket 2 is in a position where the power generation can perform power generation. Suspend to a certain height.

On the other hand, the fixed point (P) on both sides of the land is connected to the second fixing member (8) in tension, and a pair of turning ring (7) provided in the middle of the second fixing member (8) ) Is placed at intervals similar to the width of the bracket 2, and the turning ring 7 is connected to the buoy 5 with a third fixing binding member 6, and the bracket 2 Connects the first connecting ring 2b of the buoy 5 to the first fastening member 3. This maintains the state in which the bracket 2 is fixed in the water flow direction of the tidal water flowing between both sides of the strait. Here, the first fixing binding member 3, the second fixing binding member 8, and the third fixing binding member 6 are made of stainless steel chain or high strength synthetic fiber rope having excellent corrosion resistance and strength.

As described above, when the class type power generating apparatus of the present invention is installed, the fastening members 3 and 6 positioned in the direction in which the tidal stream flows toward the bracket 2 when the speed of the tidal stream flowing between both coasts increases. While the tension of 8) becomes stronger, the tension of the fastening members 3, 6, 8 located in the direction in which the tide flows from the side of the bracket 2 becomes weaker, but the tension of the bracket 2 The side pull phenomenon is controlled so that the bracket 2 is securely fixed in the direction of water flow of the tidal water.

Moreover, since the bracket 2 is fixed by the fixed point P of the land as mentioned above, it is stopped by being pushed to a certain range according to the tide flow, and it is fixed by the crane C of the land. It is fixed while floating slightly toward the surface of the water.

On the other hand, Figure 6 conceptually shows the type of hydroelectric generator of the present invention is installed in a river with a constant water flow direction, in the case of the strait is the direction of the tidal current due to the high tide direction and the ebb direction On the other hand, in the case of steel, since the direction of the water flow is constant in one direction, the configuration in which the bracket 2 is fixed to the fixing point P at the upstream and downstream sides of the river may be made slightly different.

That is, as shown in FIG. 6, the first fixing fastening member 13 with respect to the first connecting rings 12b positioned upstream of the steel among the first connecting rings 12b and 12b 'of the bracket 12. And buoy 15, the second fixing member 16, the turning ring 17, and the third fixing member 18 are provided in the same manner as the case where the above-described strait is installed in both sides of the fixed land It is connected against the point P. On the contrary, only the transverse movement of the bracket 12 on the downstream side of the river with respect to the first coupling rings 12b 'located on the downstream side of the river among the first coupling rings 12b and 12b' of the bracket 12 is performed. Since it is controlled, the first fastening member 13 'is directly bound to the fixed point P' of the land.

In addition, one end of the suspension binding member 14 is bound to each of the second connecting rings 12c of the bracket 12, and the other end of the suspension binding member 14 is suspended on the suspension support C of the land. It is the same as the case in which the bracket 12 is suspended at a predetermined height from the water toward the water surface by binding to the crane C, which is).

The type hydroelectric generator of the present invention configured as described above needs to evacuate or evacuate the brackets 2 and 12 on which the generator 1 is mounted in preparation for repair, maintenance, flooding or typhoon.

At this time, first, the suspension support (C) located in four places on the land, that is, the suspension binding members (4, 14) of the crane (C) is wound up so that the brackets (2, 12) are raised to the water surface. Then, the wire rope (not shown) provided in the crane (C) is connected to the brackets (2, 12) and wound with a tension greater than the tension of the suspension binding members (4,14) (suspension binding member ( 4, 14 is in a loose state. At this time, the suspension binding members 4, 14 are dismantled from the second connecting rings 2c, 12c provided at the four corners of the brackets 2, 12. In addition, the first fixing member (3, 13, 13 ') from the first connecting ring (2b, 12b, 12b') provided at the four corners of the bracket (2, 12) and the wire rope The floats 2, 12 are moved to the land while adjusting the tension of the rod.

In this way, the first fixing binding member that is coupled to the first connecting rings (2b, 12b, 12b ') and the second connecting rings (2c, 12c) provided at the four corners of the bracket (2, 12) The brackets 2 and 12 can be easily moved simply by releasing the binding members 3 and 13 and 13 'and the suspension binding members 4 and 14.

Then, the brackets 2, 12 may be provided with a separate storage box under the crane C, for example, and moved to the storage container under repair, maintenance, or flood or typhoon.

In the above described the present invention based on the preferred embodiment, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, various modifications by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention This is possible.
