Description of the drawings
The invention will become fully clear from the following detailed description, given by way of a mere exemplifying and non limiting example, to be read with reference to the attached drawing figures, wherein: - Fig. 1 shows a top view of an aeolic device for the wind compression, as a part of the cogeneration system, object of the invention;
Figure 2 shows a side view of the elements of the aeolic device;
Figure 3 shows a general view of the device for the aeolic and photovoltaic cogeneration; - Figures 4.1 and 4.2 show views respectively from the top and lateral of an embodiment example of the vanes of the mills, embodied so as to take benefit of the wind force as a sail.
The same reference numerals in the figures designate the same components. Detailed description of the invention
The present invention concerns a device able to exploit the force of the wind between mills with substantially parallel axis, in a room for the aeolic compression, so as to increase the power, to achieve therefore, in a short time, a greater production of energy with more multipliers. In addition it exploits the solar energy with cogeneration. The two energies (aeolic and solar) concentrated in a unique structure, in addition to having a better environmental impact, allow, with the installation of a number of modules, the embodiment of power stations for aeolic and solar cogeneration, respecting the environment.
With reference to figure 1 , the device for aeolic energy generation comprises an aeolic device for the wind compression, comprising basically the following elements.
Reference 1 indicates an internal room to a containing structure 2 for the wind compression and increase of force of the movement of two vane mills with vertical axes 5' and 5", equipped with a rotating pivot 6' and 6".
It is to be intended that the number of mills may be one or more without going out of the scope of the invention, and that the number of two is only a non limiting example. In a similar way the orientation of the mill axes can be non vertical, but taking any direction, for example orizontal, being preferably parallel each other. Reference 3 indicates the direction of the wind flow exiting the internal room 1 through an exit gate 3' with an intermediate position between the two mills 5', 5". Reference 4 indicates the direction of the wind flow at the entrance of the internal room 1 , through an entrance gate 4' with an intermediate position between the two mills 5', 5", and opposed to the position of the exit gate 3.
The air at the entrance of the entrance gate 4' rotates the two mills 5' and 5" and then exits from the opposite side through the exit gate 3', generating, with the rotating movement inside the mills, aeolic compression, and thrust of both mills. A part of the input air enters the internal room 1 , increasing the rotational speed of the mills, with the wind compression. The air once entered inside, goes back to the exit gate 3', circulates and is pushed to the outside. An automatic system for
opening and closing can invert the entrance and the exit of the device for a better exploitation of the direction and flow of the wind. Figure 2 shows further components of the aeolic device.
Reference 7 indicates a trasformation box for the electric energy of the known type. References 8' and 8" show revolution multipliers of the mills connected to respective rotational axes 6' and 6". With 9' and 9" are shown electric energy generators connected to the respective revolution multipliers 8' and 8". The electric energy produced by the generators 9' and 9" is brought , through an electronic control system 10 and connections 11 , to the transformation box 7. With reference to figure 3, it is shown the whole device of aeolic and photovoltaic cogeneration, with mills with vertical axes.
The assembled containing structure 2 shows the entrance 4' for the forced flow of wind , which channels and increases the speed and force by compressing between the two lateral walls with substantially cylindrical form 2' and 2" , so as to increase the rotational speed of the mills.
The photovoltaic part comprises a roof cover, with possible matching of the architectural structure to the containing module 2, with photovoltaic panels 14, also connected to the trasformation box 7, possibly through inverters. This way the two sources of energy can sum up. Reference 16 indicates a rotating platform (fixed to the ground) for fixing the device of aeolic and photovoltaic cogeneration. The possible rotation allows following the wind direction , for a better exploitation of the aeolic component of energy. The external coverings are embodied depending on the particular need and the placement on the selected area, matching the structure with the ambient.
Figures 4.1 and 4.2 show an example of embodiment of the vanes of the mills 5' and 5". Each vane 12 is realized to exploit the wind force as a sail; for example it shows a vertical truncated-cone structure, such as the wind at the entrance 4' of the cogeneration device or vice-versa beats against the concave part. It can be present in each mill any number of vanes pivoted on the rotational axis (6', 6"), preferably in symmetrical pairs. In addition at the upper and/or lower edges of the
mill connecting elements can be present fixed, circumpherential 13 and /or orizontal rods 15 for keeping the vanes.
Embodiment variants are possible to the non limiting example described, without going out of the scope of protection of the present invention, comprising all the equivalent embodiments for a skilled in the art.
It is possible to embody a system comprising more structures as that shown in figure 3, connected so as to sum up the generated electric power contributions. The advantages deriving from the use of the present invention are clear, especially in terms of ambient impact, of the possibility of aeolic and photovoltaic cogeneration, and increase of efficiency due to the wind compression.
Other advantages relate to the transport, being modular, the maintenance and installation, avoiding total stop of energy distribution for whichever problem or failure.
Further implementation details will not be described, as the man skilled in the art is able to carry out the invention starting from the teaching of the above description.
