Abstract

The invention relates to the use of energy produced by a pendulum moving freely in any direction in relation to a support (3), said support forming the real mobile element installed, for example, on a floating element (4) which sways owing to the movement of the water, i.e. the effect of the waves. By means of the relative displacement between the pendulum (1) and the support frame (3), the first acts on a series of energy transformers (6) which convert the mechanical energy generated by the pendulum into electrical energy.

Description

GENERADOR PENDULAR PENDULAR GENERATOR
D E S C R I P C I Ó ND E S C R I P C I Ó N
OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓNOBJECT OF THE INVENTION
La presente invención se refiere a un generador pendular, es decir a un dispositivo que ha sido concebido para la producción de energía, concretamente de energía eléctrica, en base al aprovechamiento de la energía suministrada por un péndulo, cuando éste se ve sometido, de forma natural, a un movimiento pendular.The present invention relates to a pendular generator, that is to say a device that has been designed for the production of energy, specifically electric energy, based on the use of the energy supplied by a pendulum, when it is subjected, so natural, to a pendular movement.
El objeto de la invención es pues la generación de energía eléctrica a expensas de energías naturales capaces de generar un movimiento pendular, hasta la fecha no aprovechadas, como por ejemplo la producida por las olas.The object of the invention is therefore the generation of electrical energy at the expense of natural energies capable of generating a pendular movement, to date not used, such as that produced by waves.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Existe en la actualidad y a nivel mundial un grave problema en la producción de energía eléctrica, debido a varios factores:There is currently a serious problem in the production of electric energy worldwide, due to several factors:
Por un lado la producida por recursos petrolíferos, limitados en un plazo determinado, originando las nocivas emisiones de C02, por otro la producida por energía nuclear, con los riesgos que comporta y finalmente las producidas por otros medios, energías renovables: Eólicas, solares o fotovoltaicas, bio asas, etc., todas ellas ayudan a la reducción del C02, aunque tienen cada una de ellas sus limitaciones, de producción eléctrica, de impacto ambiental o costos económicosOn the one hand, the one produced by petroleum resources, limited in a determined period, originating the harmful emissions of C0 2 , on the other, the one produced by nuclear energy, with the risks that it entails and finally those produced by other means, renewable energy: Wind, solar or photovoltaic, bio handles, etc., all of them help to reduce C0 2 , although they each have their limitations, electrical production, environmental impact or costs cheap
DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓNDESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
El generador pendular que esta invención propone, resuelve el problema de emisión de C02, ya que como más adelante se comprobará no origina ningún tipo de contaminación al no existir combustión, ni reacciones químicas, puesto que su fundamento es totalmente mecánico.The pendular generator that this invention proposes, solves the problem of emission of C0 2 , since as it will be verified later, it does not cause any type of contamination in the absence of combustion, or chemical reactions, since its foundation is totally mechanical.
Al mismo tiempo en su funcionamiento no consume ninguna energía del mercado, por lo que la producción de energía eléctrica no tiene costo económico y dimensionándolo adecuadamente se pueden obtener altas potencias de energía eléctrica.At the same time in its operation it does not consume any energy from the market, so that the production of electrical energy has no economic cost and properly sized it can obtain high powers of electrical energy.
Para ello y de forma concreta el generador que se preconiza se materializa en una estructura en la cual, en su parte superior se sitúa la sujeción de una masa pendular de grandes dimensiones y peso que le permite oscilar en cualquier dirección de los 360° o solamente en dos direcciones.To do this and specifically the generator that is recommended is embodied in a structure in which, in its upper part is placed the subjection of a pendular mass of large dimensions and weight that allows it to oscillate in any direction of 360 ° or only in two directions.
Este péndulo en sus oscilaciones constantes acciona varios transformadores de energía mecánica en eléctrica, situados convenientemente, de forma que al inclinarse y cargarse de energía parte de ellos, los restantes, cargados en la posición anterior, se encuentren desarrollando su energía, de tal forma que si se consigue que el péndulo esté continuamente en movimiento se obtenga energía eléctrica de forma permanente .This pendulum in its constant oscillations activates several transformers of mechanical energy in electric, conveniently located, so that when leaning and charging energy part of them, the rest, charged in the previous position, are developing their energy, so that if the pendulum is continuously moving, electrical energy is obtained permanently.
Para imprimir este movimiento constante al péndulo y obtener así energía eléctrica constantemente se pueden emplear, entre otros, estos dos sistemas:To print this constant movement to the pendulum and thus obtain electrical energy constantly you can employ, among others, these two systems:
Situando el generador sobre un buque, plataforma flotante, gabarra, etc. de forma tal que al producirse en cualquiera de estos cuerpos flotantes el balanceo debido al movimiento de la superficie del agua, al cambiar de posición el generador se provoca el movimiento pendular y la consiguiente producción de energía eléctrica. Para obtener un óptimo rendimiento habrá que construir el flotador de acuerdo con el peso y dimensiones del generador consiguiendo así fácilmente unos balanceos amplios y no excesivamente rápidos como consecuencia de las condiciones de estabilidad del conjunto flotador/generador obtenidas fácilmente.Placing the generator on a ship, floating platform, barge, etc. in such a way that when balancing occurs in any of these floating bodies due to the movement of the water surface, changing the position of the generator causes pendular movement and the consequent production of electrical energy. In order to obtain optimum performance, the float must be constructed according to the weight and dimensions of the generator, thus easily achieving wide and not excessively fast balances as a result of the stability conditions of the float / generator assembly easily obtained.
Para la utilización del generador en tierra firme, el generador se instalará sobre una base de forma especial, colocado el conjunto sobre una superficie horizontal. Para conseguir oscilar el conjunto en cualquier sentido, produciendo así el péndulo en sus desplazamientos la energía eléctrica como se ha expuesto anteriormente, se utilizarán puntos de apoyo para este objeto, puntos de apoyo exteriores e independientes o ajenos al generador .For the use of the generator on the mainland, the generator will be installed on a base in a special way, placing the assembly on a horizontal surface. In order to oscillate the assembly in any direction, thus producing the pendulum in its displacements the electric energy as set forth above, support points will be used for this object, external and independent support points or outside the generator.
De acuerdo con una variante de realización práctica de la invención, al péndulo estarán unidos lateralmente una serie de cables, preferentemente en disposición equiangular, cables pasantes a través de poleas provistas a su vez de piñones susceptibles de engranar en el eje principal que acciona el generador propiamente dicho, encargado de convertir la energía mecánica en energía eléctrica.In accordance with a variant of the practical embodiment of the invention, a series of cables, preferably in equiangular arrangement, will be connected laterally to the pendulum, through cables that are in turn provided with pinions capable of engaging in the main shaft that drives the generator proper, responsible for converting mechanical energy into electrical energy.
En este sentido los citados piñones pueden actuar además como embrague, de manera que se acoplarán al eje principal cuando el péndulo traccione de los cables correspondientes, mientras que en caso contrario se desacoplarán para evitar el movimiento de dichos piñones a expensas del eje principal, con la consecuente pérdida de energía que ello supondría.In this sense, the said pinions can also act as a clutch, so that they will be coupled to the main shaft when the pendulum pulls the corresponding cables, while otherwise they will be decoupled to prevent the movement of said pinions at the expense of the main shaft, with the consequent loss of energy that this would entail.
De acuerdo con una tercera realización práctica de la invención, el péndulo estará dotado de un inductor, preferentemente de frente curvo-convexo, con radio de curvatura coincidente con la del brazo del péndulo, actuante sobre una superficie asimismo curvo-cóncava y con la misma curvatura, materializada en un inducido, de manera que estos elementos, inductor e inducido, generan una corriente eléctrica irregular que ha de ser rectificada posteriormente.According to a third practical embodiment of the invention, the pendulum will be provided with an inductor, preferably with a curved-convex front, with a radius of curvature coinciding with that of the pendulum arm, acting on a similarly curved-concave surface and with the same curvature, materialized in an armature, so that these elements, inductor and armature, generate an irregular electric current that has to be rectified later.

REALIZACIÓN PREFERENTE DE LA INVENCIÓNPREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION
A la vista de las figuras referidas, y más concretamente las figuras 1 a 4, puede observarse como el generador que se preconiza está constituido a partir de un péndulo (1) , preferentemente de configuración discoidal, sustentado mediante un brazo (2) de una estructura soporteIn view of the aforementioned figures, and more specifically Figures 1 to 4, it can be seen how the generator that is proposed is constituted from a pendulum (1), preferably of a discoidal configuration, supported by an arm (2) of a support structure
(3) fijada a un flotador (4) , pudiendo el péndulo (1) estar arriostrado mediante tirantes (2 ' ) que colaboran a mantener la horizontalidad del mismo frente a los efectos oscilatorios de la estructura (3) suministrados a la misma, a través del flotador (4) , por efecto de la ondulación de las aguas marinas sobre las que se situé dicho flotador.(3) fixed to a float (4), the pendulum (1) being able to be braced by braces (2 ') that help maintain its horizontality against the oscillatory effects of the structure (3) supplied to it, a through the float (4), as a result of the undulation of the marine waters on which said float was placed.
El péndulo (1) choca contra una pluralidad de brazos radiales (5) , actuantes sobre respectivos transformadores de energía (6) , de manera que cuando el péndulo (1) empuja sobre una serie de brazos (5) , éstos entran en contacto con los correspondientes transformadores (6) que se cargan con la energía correspondiente al trabajo desarrollado por el péndulo (1) mediante sus movimientos, mientras que al cesar esta presión del péndulo, por cambio de posicionamiento debido a los movimientos a los que se ve sometida la estructura (3), se inicia la transformación de esta energía mecánica en energía eléctrica, a la vez que el péndulo (1) inicia la carga de energía mecánica en los transformadores (6) que ocupan la zona opuesta del generador.The pendulum (1) collides with a plurality of radial arms (5), acting on respective energy transformers (6), so that when the pendulum (1) pushes on a series of arms (5), they come into contact with the corresponding transformers (6) that are charged with the energy corresponding to the work carried out by the pendulum (1) through their movements, while at the end of this pendulum pressure, due to a change in positioning due to the movements to which the structure (3), the transformation of this mechanical energy into electrical energy begins, while the pendulum (1) starts the mechanical energy load in the transformers (6) that occupy the opposite area of the generator.
Para conseguir mayor rendimiento energético del péndulo (1) en sus movimientos, el posicionamiento a los diferentes transformadores (6) será tal que siempre se encuentre alguno almacenando energía mecánica y otros descargando esta energía y transformándola en energía eléctrica.To achieve greater energy efficiency of pendulum (1) in its movements, the positioning to the different transformers (6) will be such that some are always storing mechanical energy and others discharging this energy and transforming it into electrical energy.
De esta manera se produce una producción de energía eléctrica constante.This produces a constant production of electrical energy.
Por otro lado y para conseguir unos balances apropiados en intensidad y tiempo, en orden a obtener mayor rendimiento en cada caso, habrá que diseñar el flotador (4) con una configuración y peso adecuados para que, conjuntamente con el peso del resto del generador, se logre un cuerpo flotante con su centro de gravedad debidamente ubicado para alcanzar unos balanceos intensos y de la larga duración, consiguiendo así los movimientos convenientes al péndulo para obtener el óptimo rendimiento.On the other hand and to achieve appropriate balances in intensity and time, in order to obtain greater performance in each case, it will be necessary to design the float (4) with an appropriate configuration and weight so that, together with the weight of the rest of the generator, a floating body is achieved with its center of gravity properly located to achieve intense and long-lasting balancing, thus achieving convenient movements to the pendulum to obtain optimum performance.
Este posicionamiento del centro de gravedad es una operación normal y habitual que se lleva a cabo durante la explotación y manejo de todo tipo de buques: mercantes, pesqueros, de guerra, plataformas flotantes, yates, gabarras, etc. diariamente y en todo el mundo.This positioning of the center of gravity is a normal and usual operation that is carried out during the operation and handling of all types of ships: merchants, fishing, war, floating platforms, yachts, barges, etc. Daily and worldwide.
Si los generadores quedan instalados para su explotación energética sobre cuerpos flotantes, lo más adecuado sería fondear estos flotadores en lugares como bocas de puertos, ensenadas resguardadas, etc. donde se vieran afectados por los balanceos originados por el estado de la superficie del agua, como olas, corrientes, otros factores, etc.If the generators are installed for their energy exploitation on floating bodies, the most appropriate would be to anchor these floats in places such as port mouths, sheltered coves, etc. where they will be affected by the balances caused by the state of the water surface, such as waves, currents, other factors, etc.
Por este motivo los balances que se originan en estas condiciones, suelen ser en todas direcciones es decir en los 360°. En cualquier caso y debido al posicionamiento del péndulo (1) y de los transformadores de energía (6) todos los balanceos que sufra el flotador (4) y consiguientemente el generador producen continuamente la energía eléctrica de forma constante no siendo afectado su rendimiento por el cambio de orientación en los balanceos experimentados.For this reason the balances that originate in These conditions are usually in all directions, that is, in the 360 °. In any case and due to the positioning of the pendulum (1) and of the energy transformers (6) all the balances that the float undergoes (4) and consequently the generator continuously produces the electrical energy in a constant way not being affected its performance by the change of orientation in experienced balances.
En las figuras 5 y 6 se ha representado un generador previsto para trabajar sobre una superficie horizontal (7) , en cuyo caso la estructura cónica (3) del caso anterior es sustituida por una estructura (3 ' ) híbrida, con un sector superior cilindrico, aunque también podría ser cónico, y un sector inferior semiesférico (8) , que es el que realmente apoya sobre la superficie (7) , de forma prácticamente puntual, estabilizándose la estructura (3') con la colaboración de cables (9) que relacionan dicha estructura con apoyos (10) operativamente establecidos sobre la superficie (7) , que permiten la basculación lateral de dicha estructura (3 ' ) , como se observa en la figura 6. En este caso y como salta a la vista, tanto el péndulo (1) como los transformadores de energía (6) , presentarán la misma estructuración que en el caso anterior, el de las figuras 1 a 4.In figures 5 and 6 a generator intended to work on a horizontal surface (7) has been shown, in which case the conical structure (3) of the previous case is replaced by a hybrid structure (3 '), with a cylindrical upper sector , although it could also be conical, and a lower hemispherical sector (8), which is the one that really rests on the surface (7), practically on time, stabilizing the structure (3 ') with the collaboration of cables (9) that relate said structure with supports (10) operatively established on the surface (7), which allow lateral tilting of said structure (3 '), as seen in Figure 6. In this case and as it is obvious, both the pendulum (1) as the energy transformers (6), will present the same structuring as in the previous case, that of figures 1 to 4.
En este caso la duración de intensidad de los balanceos, al ser provocados voluntariamente, serán los que se crean más convenientes para la optimización del rendimiento en la producción de energía eléctrica.In this case, the duration of the balancing intensity, when voluntarily provoked, will be the ones that are most convenient for optimizing the performance in the production of electric energy.
En las figuras 7 a 10 se ha representado otra variante de realización para el generador, similar a la de las figuras 1 a 4 en cuanto a la existencia de una armadura cónica (3) sobre la que se establece el péndulo (1) , y establecida a su vez sobre un flotador (4) , variando en este caso los medios de transmisión de movimiento, que consisten en tres cables (11) fijados a 120° en la periferia del péndulo (1) , que pasantes a través de respectivas poleas (12) , confluyen hacia respectivas poleas (13), que rodean a un eje principalIn figures 7 to 10 another embodiment variant for the generator is shown, similar to that of figures 1 to 4 in terms of the existence of a conical reinforcement (3) on which the pendulum is established (1), and in turn established on a float (4), in this case varying the means of motion transmission, which consist of three cables (11) fixed at 120 ° on the periphery of the pendulum (1), which through through respective pulleys (12), they converge towards respective pulleys (13), which surround a main axis
(14) , conectado al generador propiamente dicho y al que acciona permanentemente, siendo cada polea (13) solidaria a un piñón (15) susceptible de engranar / desengranar con una corona dentada (16) , a su vez solidarizada al eje principal (14) , con la particularidad de que estos piñones(14), connected to the generator itself and to which it drives permanently, each pulley (13) being integral with a pinion (15) capable of engaging / disengaging with a toothed crown (16), in turn in solidarity with the main shaft (14 ), with the particularity that these pinions
(15) actúan además como embrague, de manera que cuando se produce una tracción sobre el cable (1.1) correspondiente, se produce paralelamente el embrague o enclavamiento entre los piñones (15) y (16) , mientras que en el otro semiciclo de trabajo, es decir cuando se distiende el cable (11) , el piñón (15) correspondiente se desembraga de la corona(15) also act as a clutch, so that when traction occurs on the corresponding cable (1.1), the clutch or interlocking occurs between the pinions (15) and (16), while in the other working half cycle , that is, when the cable (11) is distended, the corresponding pinion (15) is disengaged from the crown
(16) , es decir se independiza de la misma, para que el eje principal (14) no tenga que arrastrarlo, como se observa especialmente en el detalle ampliado de la figura (10) .(16), that is to say it becomes independent of it, so that the main axis (14) does not have to drag it, as can be seen especially in the enlarged detail of figure (10).
Finalmente y como muestran las figuras (11) y (12), cono una estructura (3) similar a la anterior y asociada igualmente a un flotador (4), el péndulo (l1) puede materializarse en un inductor eléctrico (17) , desplazable paralela y próximamente con respecto a un inducido (18) establecido en la propia estructura (3) , ambos curvos, y con el mismo radio de curvatura, el correspondiente al brazo (2) del péndulo (l1), de manera que el desplazamiento relativo entre inductor e inducidoFinally, and as shown in figures (11) and (12), with a structure (3) similar to the previous one and also associated with a float (4), the pendulum (l 1 ) can materialize in an electric inductor (17), movable parallel and soon with respect to an armature (18) established in the structure itself (3), both curved, and with the same radius of curvature, that corresponding to the arm (2) of the pendulum (l 1 ), so that the relative displacement between inductor and induced
(17) y (18) dará lugar a una corriente eléctrica irregular que ha de rectificarse. (17) and (18) will lead to an irregular electric current that has to be rectified.
