以下將特舉數個具體之較佳實施例,並配合所附圖式做詳細說明,圖上顯示數個實施例。然而,本發明可以許多不同形式實施,不局限於以下所述之實施例,在此提供之實 施例可使得揭露得以更透徹及完整,以將本發明之範圍完整地傳達予同領域熟悉此技藝者。 In the following, a number of specific preferred embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate several embodiments. However, the invention can be embodied in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described below, which are provided herein. The examples are intended to provide a more thorough and complete disclosure of the invention, and the scope of the invention is fully disclosed to those skilled in the art.

參照第1圖,其顯示本發明之一實施例之能量擷取設備100之示意圖。能量擷取設備100係用於擷取來自一流體波動能量,例如:海浪波動能量。在一實施例中,能量擷取設備100包括一固定結構110、一連接構件120、一漂浮構件130、一第一彈性構件140、一第二彈性構件150、以及一擷能模組160。 Referring to Figure 1, there is shown a schematic diagram of an energy extraction device 100 in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. The energy extraction device 100 is used to extract energy from a fluid fluctuation, such as wave fluctuation energy. In one embodiment, the energy extraction device 100 includes a fixed structure 110 , a connecting member 120 , a floating member 130 , a first elastic member 140 , a second elastic member 150 , and a thermal module 160 .

固定結構110係固定於一平面50(例如:海床)之上,並相對流體51靜止。固定結構110鄰近其下端部111之部分係沉浸於一流體51(例如:海水)當中,且固定結構110鄰近其上端部113之部分係垂直伸出於流體51之表面(例如:海水表面)。在一實施例中,固定結構110伸出於流體51之長度係大於流體51最大高度與最低高度之高度差。舉例而言,固定結構110伸出於流體51之長度係大於能量擷取設備100所設置之海域之潮差。是以,當流體位於最大高度時,固定結構110鄰近其上端部113之部分不會沉浸於流體51當中。關於此特徵所產生之功效將於後方關於能量擷取設備100之作動方法進行說明。 The fixed structure 110 is secured to a plane 50 (e.g., the sea floor) and is stationary relative to the fluid 51. A portion of the fixed structure 110 adjacent to its lower end portion 111 is immersed in a fluid 51 (e.g., seawater), and a portion of the fixed structure 110 adjacent to its upper end portion 113 extends perpendicularly from the surface of the fluid 51 (e.g., a seawater surface). In one embodiment, the length of the fixed structure 110 extending from the fluid 51 is greater than the height difference between the maximum height and the lowest height of the fluid 51. For example, the length of the fixed structure 110 extending from the fluid 51 is greater than the tidal range of the sea area set by the energy extraction device 100. Therefore, when the fluid is at the maximum height, the portion of the fixed structure 110 adjacent to its upper end portion 113 is not immersed in the fluid 51. The effect of this feature will be described later with respect to the method of operation of the energy extraction device 100.

In an embodiment, the front end pivot portion 125 is adjacent to the front end portion 121 of the connecting member 120. The front end pivot portion 125 is spaced apart from the front end portion 121 by a distance. The rear end pivot portion 127 is located on the rear end portion 123 of the connecting member 120. The connecting member 120 is pivotally connected to the floating member 130 by the front end pivoting portion 125 , and the connecting member 120 is pivotally connected to the fixing structure 110 by the rear end pivoting portion 127 . With the above configuration, the connecting member 120 The pivoting member 130 is pivotable relative to the floating member 130 about a front pivot axis P1, and the connecting member 120 is pivotable relative to the fixed structure 110 about a rear pivot axis P2. In an embodiment, the front end pivot axis P1 and the rear end pivot axis P2 are parallel to each other. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the front end pivot shaft P1 may also be skewed with respect to the rear end pivot axis P2. With the above configuration, the energy extraction device 100 has two degrees of freedom of motion.

連接構件120可以利用多種方式與固定結構110以及漂浮構件130進行樞接,例如透過單一樞接點或多個樞接點繞前端樞轉軸P1或後端樞轉軸P2進行樞轉。另外,連接構件120可以利用鉸鍊結構或者其他任何可進行樞轉之結構與固定結構110以及漂浮構件130進行樞接。 The connecting member 120 can be pivoted with the fixed structure 110 and the floating member 130 in various ways, for example, by a single pivot point or a plurality of pivot points about the front pivot axis P1 or the rear pivot axis P2. Additionally, the connecting member 120 can be pivotally coupled to the fixed structure 110 and the floating member 130 using a hinge structure or any other pivotable structure.

In an embodiment, the distance L1 between the front end pivot portion 125 and the rear end pivot portion 127 of the connecting member 120 is smaller than the length L2 of the rod 131. In an embodiment, the ratio of the distance L1 between the front end pivot portion 125 and the rear end pivot portion 127 of the connecting member 120 to the length L2 of the rod member 131 is between about 0.2 and about 1, thereby increasing energy. Learn efficiency.

In another embodiment, the front end energy component 161 and the rear end energy component 163 each include a hydraulic generator that utilizes energy from the fluid 51 to generate electrical power or other available energy. In one embodiment, the xenon module 160 is not immersed in the fluid 51 to increase the life of the xenon module 160 and facilitate maintenance.

繼續參照第1圖,根據本發明之一實施,能量擷取設備100之操作方式說明如下:當能量擷取設備100用於擷取流體51波動之能量時,漂浮構件130係漂浮於流體51上。在一實施例中,漂浮構件130之延伸方向係與流體51波動行進方向相垂直,藉此提昇能量擷取設備100的發電量。 With continued reference to FIG. 1, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, the operation of the energy extraction device 100 is illustrated as follows: when the energy extraction device 100 is used to extract energy fluctuating from the fluid 51, the floating member 130 floats on the fluid 51. . In an embodiment, the direction of extension of the floating member 130 is perpendicular to the direction of travel of the fluid 51, thereby increasing the amount of power generated by the energy extraction device 100.

接著,當流體51進行波動時,流體51可帶動漂浮構件130相對於連接構件120繞前端樞轉軸P1進行樞轉,以及/或者流體51可帶動連接構件120相對於固定結構110繞後端樞轉軸P2進行樞轉。如此一來,驅動擷能模組160可擷取連接構件120相對於漂浮構件130或固定結構110進行樞轉時所產生之動能,進而產生電力或其他可利用之能量。 Then, when the fluid 51 fluctuates, the fluid 51 can drive the floating member 130 to pivot relative to the connecting member 120 about the front pivot axis P1, and/or the fluid 51 can drive the connecting member 120 to pivot about the rear end relative to the fixed structure 110. P2 pivots. In this way, the driving function module 160 can capture the kinetic energy generated when the connecting member 120 pivots relative to the floating member 130 or the fixed structure 110, thereby generating electric power or other available energy.

在一實施例中,由於能量擷取設備100具有二個自由度之運動能力,漂浮構件130可以根據流體51不同運動方式適性調整其運動軌跡。舉例而言,當流體51於起伏(heave)方向D1上之動能大於流體51於縱移方向D2上之動能時,漂浮構件130之中心將沿一實質呈一橢圓形之第一運動軌跡M2移動。漂浮構件130對流體51於起伏方向D1之能量吸收率較高。當流體51於縱移方向D2之能量大於流體51於起伏方向D1上之能量時,漂浮構件130將沿一實質呈一橢圓形之第二運動軌跡M1移動。漂浮構件130對流體51於縱移方向D2之能量吸收率較高。 In an embodiment, since the energy extraction device 100 has two degrees of freedom of motion, the floating member 130 can appropriately adjust its motion trajectory according to different movement modes of the fluid 51. For example, when the kinetic energy of the fluid 51 in the heave direction D1 is greater than the kinetic energy of the fluid 51 in the longitudinal direction D2, the center of the floating member 130 will move along a substantially elliptical first motion trajectory M2. . The floating member 130 has a higher energy absorption rate for the fluid 51 in the undulating direction D1. When the energy of the fluid 51 in the longitudinal direction D2 is greater than the energy of the fluid 51 in the undulating direction D1, the floating member 130 will move along a substantially elliptical second motion trajectory M1. The floating member 130 has a higher energy absorption rate for the fluid 51 in the longitudinal direction D2.

請一併參照第1圖與第2圖,第2圖顯示一浮體之能量吸收率(%)與流體51運動週期(t)之關係圖。由第2圖可以看出,流體51於不同週期進行運動時,漂浮構件130對於各個方向上的能量吸收率有所不同。由於本實施例之漂浮構件 130具有適性調整其運動軌跡之特性,能量擷取設備100擷取能量的效率將不受流體51運動週期影響,而產生明顯差異。 Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 together. FIG. 2 is a graph showing the relationship between the energy absorption rate (%) of a floating body and the motion period (t) of the fluid 51. As can be seen from Fig. 2, when the fluid 51 is moved in different cycles, the floating member 130 has different energy absorption rates in various directions. Due to the floating member of the embodiment 130 has the property of adjusting its motion trajectory adaptively, and the efficiency of energy extraction by the energy extraction device 100 will not be affected by the motion cycle of the fluid 51, and a significant difference will occur.

The fan 30 is disposed at an upper end 113a of the fixed structure 110a and configured to convert wind energy into electrical energy or other applicable energy.

連接構件120a藉由一後端樞接部127a樞接於固定結構110a,且連接構件120a藉由一前端樞接部125a樞接於漂浮構件130a。在一實施例中,前端樞接部125a以及後端樞接部127a分別具有二個樞接點,以與固定結構110a以及漂浮構件130a進行樞接。在一實施例中,擷能模組(未圖示於第3圖中)為扭轉發電機,設置於前端樞接部125a或後端樞接部127a中,並配置用以擷取連接構件120a相對於漂浮構件130a或固定結構110a進行樞轉時所產生之動能。 The connecting member 120a is pivotally connected to the fixing structure 110a by a rear end pivoting portion 127a, and the connecting member 120a is pivotally connected to the floating member 130a by a front end pivoting portion 125a. In an embodiment, the front end pivoting portion 125a and the rear end pivoting portion 127a respectively have two pivoting points for pivotal connection with the fixed structure 110a and the floating member 130a. In one embodiment, the snubber module (not shown in FIG. 3) is a torsion generator disposed in the front end pivoting portion 125a or the rear end pivoting portion 127a and configured to capture the connecting member 120a. The kinetic energy generated when pivoting relative to the floating member 130a or the fixed structure 110a.

Also, the body 133a includes a base 1331 and a floating element 1335. The rod member 131a and the base 1331 are integrally formed. The floating element 1335 is coupled to the opposite side of the base 1331 connecting the rods 131a. The base 1331 and the floating element 1335 can be made of different materials. For example, the rod member 131a and the base member 1331 may be made of a material having a high rigidity, for example, a steel for marine engineering; and the floating member 1335 may be made of a material having a small specific gravity, such as a plastic float.

在一實施例中,發電系統1之風機30以及能量擷取設備100a係同時運作。由於發電系統1同時藉由風機30擷取風能並且藉由能量擷取設備100a擷取流體51波動之能量,發電系統1之發電量可以獲得提昇。 In one embodiment, the fan 30 of the power generation system 1 and the energy extraction device 100a operate simultaneously. Since the power generation system 1 simultaneously draws wind energy by the wind turbine 30 and draws energy of the fluctuation of the fluid 51 by the energy extraction device 100a, the power generation amount of the power generation system 1 can be improved.

請一併參照第1圖及第4圖,第4圖顯示根據本發明之一實施例之發電系統2之示意圖。發電系統2包括多個能量擷取設備100b。在第4圖中,能量擷取設備100b與能量擷取設備100相同或相似之元件將施予相似之標號,且其特徵將不再說明,以簡化說明書內容。在一實施例中,能量擷取設備100b包括一固定結構110b、一連接構件120b、一漂浮構件130b、一彈性構件(未圖示於第4圖中)、以及一擷能模組(未圖示於第4圖中)。 Referring to Figures 1 and 4 together, Figure 4 shows a schematic diagram of a power generation system 2 in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. The power generation system 2 includes a plurality of energy extraction devices 100b. In FIG. 4, the same or similar components of the energy extraction device 100b and the energy extraction device 100 will be given similar reference numerals, and their features will not be described again to simplify the description. In one embodiment, the energy extraction device 100b includes a fixed structure 110b, a connecting member 120b, a floating member 130b, an elastic member (not shown in FIG. 4), and an energy module (not shown). Shown in Figure 4).

在一實施例中,固定結構110b係設置於一防波堤60之頂部61。由於防波堤60係固定於平面50之上,因此固定結構110b係相對於流體51靜止。連接構件120b藉由一後端樞接部127b樞接於固定結構110b,且連接構件120b藉由一前端樞接部125b樞接於漂浮構件130b。漂浮構件130b包括一桿件131b以及 一本體133b。本體133b漂浮於流體51上,並具有六邊形之截面。彈性構件(未圖示於第4圖中)係設置於前端樞接部125b內部。擷能模組(未圖示於第4圖中)為扭轉發電機,設置於前端樞接部125b或後端樞接部127b中,並配置用以擷取連接構件120b相對於漂浮構件130b或固定結構110b進行樞轉時所產生之動能。 In an embodiment, the fixed structure 110b is disposed on the top 61 of a breakwater 60.

In FIG. 5, the same or similar components of the energy extraction device 100c and the energy extraction device 100 will be given similar reference numerals, and their features will not be described again to simplify the description.
