[31] Embodiment 1
[32] As shown in FIGS. 1-5, 10-14: the present embodiment provides an electromagnetic energy harvesting device 100 comprising a stator mechanism 1, a rotor mechanism 2 and a driving mechanism 3, wherein the rotor mechanism 2 comprises a
Halbach array 15, the center line of the stator mechanism 1 coincides with the center line of the rotor mechanism 2, and the driving mechanism 3 drives the rotor mechanism 2 to rotate relative to the stator mechanism 1.
[33] Specifically, in the present embodiment, the rotor mechanism 2 comprises a rotor sheath 13 and a Halbach array 15, wherein one side of the rotor sheath 13 is a tooth slot 14, and the tooth slot 14 is an inclined tooth slot 14; the other side of the rotor sheath 13 is a Halbach array 15, and the Halbach array 15 is arranged close to the stator mechanism 1; the Halbach array 15 comprises a plurality of magnets 23, and each magnet 23 is embedded in a groove on the other side of the rotor sheath 13; the Halbach array 15 forms a magnetic ring in a polygonal or circumferential arrangement; and in the present embodiment, the Halbach array 15 is in the shape of a circular ring. The Halbach array 15 in the present embodiment is composed of 12 magnets 23 and has a large inertia, and after rotating, even if no driving force is input any more, it can continue to rotate under the effect of inertia, continuously generating electric energy and collecting energy, thus greatly improving the energy collection rate.
[34] In this embodiment, the magnets 23 are pyramid-shaped or arc-shaped permanent magnets.
[35] In the present embodiment, the stator mechanism 1 comprises a first coil 16 and two magnetic conductive supports 17, wherein the magnetic conductive supports 17 are made of iron pieces, each magnetic conductive support 17 comprises three magnetic conductive struts, the magnetic conductive struts of the two magnetic conductive supports 17 are arranged alternately, the first coil 16 is arranged between the two magnetic conductive supports 17 to serve the function of gathering magnetic flux lines, the center line of the first coil 16, the center lines of the two magnetic conductive supports 17 and the center line of the rotor mechanism 2 all coincide, the first coil 16 is wound into a petal shape, and the petal-shaped first coil 16 comprises several petals; the number of petals is an integer multiple of the number of the Halbach arrays 15, in this embodiment the number of petals is six and the number of the Halbach arrays 15 is one.
A first coil 16 is provided to facilitate energy collection, and the energy harvesting efficiency can be improved and the energy harvesting power can be increased by increasing the number of turns of the first coil 16. The magnetic support 17 plays a very important role in this structure. It can gather the magnetic field lines of the Halbach array closer to the direction of the coil 16, so that the coil 16 can better cut the magnetic field lines, that is, the magnetic field lines passing through the coil are more dense in unit time, and the coil havests more energy in unit time, so as to improve the energy harvesting efficiency.
[36] In this embodiment, the electromagnetic energy harvesting device 100 further comprises a transmission mechanism 4 and a ratchet mechanism 5, wherein the center line of the ratchet mechanism 5 coincides with the center line of the rotor mechanism 2, and the driving mechanism 3 drives the ratchet mechanism 5 via the transmission mechanism 4 to drive the rotor mechanism 2 to rotate in one direction relative to the stator mechanism 1.
[37] In this embodiment, the transmission mechanism 4 comprises a coaxial and fixed first transmission gear 6 and a second transmission gear 7, wherein the first transmission gear 6 is in transmission connection with the driving mechanism 3, and the second transmission gear 7 is in transmission connection with the ratchet mechanism 5.
[38] In the present embodiment, the ratchet mechanism 5 is an intermittent motion mechanism, and the ratchet mechanism 5 comprises a first gear 8, a connecting plate 9 and two rachets 10, wherein the first gear 8 is fixedly arranged with the connecting plate 9, one end of the two rachets 10 is hinged with the connecting plate 9, and the first gear 8 is in transmission connection with the transmission mechanism 4, and the transmission mechanism 4 drives the first gear 8 to rotate so that the rachets 10 drive the rotor mechanism 2 to realize unidirectional rotation. According to the perspective of FIG. 1, the first gear 8 rotates clockwise, and the ratchet mechanism 5 does not drive the rotor mechanism 2 to rotate; and the first gear 8 rotates counterclockwise, and the ratchet mechanism 5 drives the rotor mechanism 2 to rotate, i.e., the ratchet mechanism 5 drives the rotor mechanism 2 to rotate in one direction with respect to the stator mechanism 1, preventing reverse rotation. The unidirectional rotation of the rotor mechanism 2 keeps the energy harvesting circuit in a positive working state, which further promotes energy collection.
[39] In this embodiment, the driving mechanism 3 comprises a connecting rod 11 and a second gear 12, wherein one end of the connecting rod 11 is fixedly connected to the second gear 12, and the second gear 12 is in transmission connection to the transmission mechanism 4.
[40] In this embodiment, the connecting rod 11 of the driving mechanism 3 drives the second gear 12 to rotate; the second gear 12 meshes with the first transmission gear 6 of the transmission mechanism 4, and then drives the second transmission gear 7 to rotate; the second transmission gear 7 drives the first gear 8 of the ratchet mechanism 5 to rotate; the first gear 8 and the connecting plate 9 move together; and the rachet 10 meshes with the tooth slot 14, and drives the rotor mechanism 2 to rotate. An indexing circle diameter of the first transmission gear 6 is smaller than that of the second gear 12, the indexing circle diameter of the second gear 12 is smaller than that of the second transmission gear 7, and the indexing circle diameter of the second transmission gear 7 is much larger than the indexing circle diameter of the first gear 8, so as to achieve a larger rotation speed ratio, so that the electromagnetic energy harvesting device 100 has a better frequency harvesting effect, a significant frequency increase effect, a higher energy harvesting efficiency, and can drive the rotor mechanism 2 with a large inertia with a smaller driving force.
[41] In the present embodiment, the electromagnetic energy harvesting device 100 further comprises a rebound mechanism 20, wherein the rebound mechanism 20 comprises an elastic element 21 which is a spring, one end of the elastic element 21 is connected to the driving mechanism 3, and the other end of the elastic element 21 1s connected to a fixed plate 22 provided on one side of the stator mechanism 1. The rebound mechanism 20 can reset the driving mechanism 3 and realize the reciprocating motion under a very small driving force. This reciprocating motion can enable the rotor mechanism 2 to rotate in one direction under the action of the ratchet mechanism 5. This power source form that harvests the reciprocating motion into one-way rotation can realize repeated power input.
[42] Example 2
[43] As shown in FIGS. 6-14: this embodiment differs from Embodiment 1 in that in this embodiment, the stator mechanism 1 comprises a coil support 18 and a plurality of second coils 19, wherein the plurality of second coils 19 are uniformly distributed on the coil support 18, the center line of the coil support 18 coincides with the center line of the rotor mechanism 2, the plurality of second coils 19 are located on the same circumference and are uniformly distributed along the circumference of the same circumference, and the center line of the same circumference where the plurality of second coils 19 are located coincides with the center line of the rotor mechanism 2. A plurality of second coils 19 are distributed on one side of the Halbach array 15, the magnetic field lines are more densely distributed, and the energy harvesting efficiency is higher. The reverse magnetic force generated by each second coil 19 under Lenz's law is relatively small, and the inertia of the Halbach array 15 is relatively large, so that the reverse magnetic force of each second coil 19 can be well overcome, and the influence of Lenz' s law on the whole device is greatly reduced.
[44] The principle and the implementation mode of the present invention are explained by applying specific examples in the present specification, and the above description of the embodiments is only used to help understanding the method and the core idea of the present invention; meanwhile, according to the idea of the present invention, the specific embodiments and the application range may be changed. In view of the above, this description should not be construed as limiting the invention.
