<1. Power generator>
As shown in FIG. 1, the power generation device 100 according to one embodiment of the present invention uses a moving pulley 15 to generate power. The power generation device 100 is connected to a fixed pulley 10, a movable pulley 15 that is connected to the pulley 10 by a wire 20 and is located at a proximal end side 20 a of the wire 20, and a distal end side 20 b of the wire 20.

Then, the rotating body 50 attached to the fixed shaft 40 and having a pressing member 55 (not shown in FIG. 1), a passive portion 60 (not shown in FIG. 1) that receives rotational power through the pressing member 55, and the passive member And a power converter 63 (not shown in FIG. 1) for converting the linear motion obtained from the portion 60 into useful power.

The power generation device 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention generates power by moving the first weight 30 or the second weight 35 shown in FIG. 1 up or down or by rotating the rotating body 50.

The pulley 10 and the moving pulley 15 used in the power generation device 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention may be general ones. Further, the sizes of the pulley 10 and the movable pulley 15 are various depending on the application. A size suitable for a wide place or a narrow place may be appropriately applied.

Approximate configuration of the power generation device 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention is as shown in FIG. Next, with reference to FIG. 2, the fixed shaft 40, the second weight 35, the rotating body 50 having the pressing member 55, the passive body 60, the power conversion, which are included in the power generation device 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention. The container 63 will be described.

As shown in FIG. 2, the second weight 35 is connected from the fixing portion, but is fixed by a member 75 that extends the

vertical members

71 and 72 in the bottom direction from the fixing portion and fixes the second weight 35. .. For example, the second weight 35 is provided in a hanging state from the fixed shaft 40 via the bearing 45 and the like. At this time, if the member 75 for fixing the second weight 35 is provided at the center of gravity of the second weight 35 or at a position higher than the center of gravity, the center of gravity of the second weight 35 faces downward and the second weight 35 is stabilized. .. Further, a hook may be attached to the fixing member 75 to suspend the second weight 35 with a wire or a band rope. Further, at this time, the second weight 35 is provided in a hanging state on the fixed shaft 40 via the bearing 45, and a distance is previously provided to the member 75 for fixing the fixed shaft 40 and the second weight 35. This is preferable because the center of gravity of the weight 35 always faces downward.

As shown in FIG. 2, the fixed shaft 40 is fixed to the shaft of the movable pulley 15 by providing a detent 41 such as a key (see FIG. 3). When the movable pulley 15 rotates, the fixed shaft 40 rotates in conjunction with it. When the fixed shaft 40 rotates, the rotating body 50, which is also fixed and provided with a detent 41 such as a key, rotates in conjunction with the rotation. Then, the rotating body 50 that has been rotated transmits rotational power to the passive portion 60 through the pressing member 55 to push out the passive portion 60, and the pushed passive portion 60 is integrated with the passive portion 60 into a power converter 63. The power converter 63 is a mechanism that moves in the direction of the arrow and converts it into useful power and outputs it. That is, the passive unit 60 and the power converter 63 operate vertically like a piston.

The power converter 63 is fixed to another member 73 provided on the

vertical members

71 and 72. That is, the

vertical members

71, 72, the separate member 73, and the power converter 63, which are provided in a hanging state on the fixed shaft 40 via the bearing 45, integrally have the second weight 35. For the power converter 63, for example, a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder or the like is used. As shown in FIG. 2, the size of the power converter 63 is not particularly limited as long as it is a mechanism in which the passive unit 60 pushes out and the power converter 63 can move in the vertical direction in conjunction with it.

As shown in FIG. 2, a plurality of moving pulleys 15 may be mounted in parallel (15a, 15b), or a single pulley may be mounted. Considering the stability of the device, it is preferable that the plurality of moving pulleys 15 are arranged in parallel (15a, 15b) as shown in FIG.

Further, it is preferable to further include an elastic body 62 such as a spring between the passive unit 60 and the power converter 63. Alternatively, a mechanism in which an elastic body such as a spring is built in the power converter 63 may be used. The passive part 60 and the power converter 63 pushed out by the rotating body 50 return in the direction opposite to the arrow after the rotating body transmits power, and push / return is repeated. Details will be described later.

FIG. 3 is a view on arrow A of FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, the second weight 35 is connected to the fixed shaft 40 via a bearing 45 to

vertical members

71 and 72 provided in a hanging state. Further, it is preferable that the distance L between the fixed shaft 40 and the member 75 for fixing the second weight 35 is provided in advance so that the center of gravity of the second weight 35 is always downward. Further, when applying the principle of leverage and considering the fixed shaft 40 as a fulcrum, the member 75 for fixing the second weight 35 as the operating point, and the passive portion 60 as the force point, the fixed shaft 40 and the second weight 35 are also considered. The longer the distance L to the fixing member 75 is, the better the force acting on the force point is.

FIG. 4 is a view on arrow B of FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, the rotating body 50 is fixed by providing a fixed shaft 40 with a detent 41 such as a key. At this time, the rotating body 50 may be circular or angular. There is no limitation as long as it can rotate.

Further, the rotational power is not impaired from the movable pulley 15 to the fixed shaft 40, from the fixed shaft 40 to the rotating body 50, and from the rotating body 50 to the passive portion 60, or the center of gravity of the second weight 35 is always downward. In addition, it is preferable to use the bearing 45 for connecting the fixed shaft 40 and the

vertical members

71 and 72.

Next, with reference to FIGS. 5A and 5B, how the rotating body 50 rotates and how power is output from the power converter 63 will be described.

FIG. 5 (A) is a diagram showing a state in which the power converter 63 is pushed down. As shown in FIG. 5A, when the rotating body 50 having the pressing member 55 rotates in the direction of the arrow, for example, the passive unit 60 receives the rotational power through the pressing member 55 and presses the passive unit 60. Then, since the passive portion 60 is pressed, the power converter 63 is pushed down in the direction of the arrow and converted into useful power and output.

On the other hand, FIG. 5 (B) is a diagram showing a state in which the power converter 63 is returned. As shown in FIG. 5B, when the rotating body 50 further rotates in the direction of the arrow, if the pressing member 55 does not exist above the passive portion 60, the pressing member 55 cannot be pressed against the passive portion 60, so that power is reduced. The converter 63 is returned in the direction of the arrow by the elastic body 62 such as a spring.

By repeating the states of FIGS. 5A and 5B in this way, it is possible to continuously convert the rotational force into a linear reciprocating motion and transmit it to the power converter 63.

As described above, it is preferable to provide the elastic body 62 such as a spring between the power converter 63 and the passive portion 60, or by using a mechanism in which the elastic body such as a spring is built in the power converter 63, As shown in FIG. 5B, the power converter 63 easily returns in the direction of the arrow.

The passive unit 60 and the power converter 63 may be attached downward to the rotating body 50, as shown in FIGS. On the other hand, the passive unit 60 and the power converter 63 may be attached in the upper direction of the rotating body 50. That is, the rotating body 50, the passive unit 60, and the power converter 63 shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B have a configuration in which the rotating body 50 is inverted, and the rotating body 50, the passive unit 60, and the power conversion unit are arranged from the bottom. The vessels 63 are arranged in this order. In this case, the

vertical members

71 and 72 may be extended upward, the separate member 73 may be attached, and the power converter 63 may be attached.

Since the pressing member 55 transmits rotational power to the passive portion 60, for example, a roller having a bearing with less friction, a tire, or the like is used. Further, it is preferable that the pressing members 55 are attached on the concentric circles at equal intervals along the rotating body 50. If they are attached evenly in this way, power can be transmitted to the power converter 63 at even intervals.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the shape of the passive portion 60 may be a hemispherical shape, a frustum shape such as a spherical shape, a triangular prism shape, a cubic shape, or an isosceles trapezoid. Most preferred are hemispheres and spheres that have the least frictional resistance.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the pressing members 55 may be arranged in an octagonal shape on a concentric circle, or may be arranged in a polygonal shape of 4 to 7 or more. The size of the pressing member 55 is appropriately adjusted according to the size of the passive unit 60.

As described above, the fixed shaft 40 and the rotating body 50 are fixed by providing the detent 41 such as a key, and when the fixed shaft 40 rotates, the rotating body 50 rotates together.

Further, any one or more of the movable pulley 15, the fixed shaft 40, and the rotating body 50 may be provided with a mechanism such as a gear or a belt to attach a motor for assisting the rotation. Power is required to operate the motor, but it is much more energy-saving than transferring substances such as gas or liquid by power alone.

The first weight 30 is preferably heavier or lighter than 1/2 the weight of the second weight 35. Since the power generating device according to the embodiment of the present invention uses the moving pulley, the first weight 30 is balanced with the weight of ½ of the second weight 35. By setting the weight to be heavier or lighter than half the weight of the weight 30 and the second weight 35, a difference in gravity is generated in the first weight 30 or the second weight 35. By doing so, it is possible to provide a power generation device that is appropriately applied according to the direction of the force applied to the first weight or the mechanism.

When moving the first weight or the second weight up and down, it may be moved manually, or even if the difference in gravity is generated or not, the first weight or the second weight is placed below the weight. A seesaw, a member using natural energy such as buoyancy, or wave force may be used to move up and down. By doing so, it is possible to provide a power generation device that further saves energy and effectively uses natural energy.

As described above, according to the power generation device according to the embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to provide a power generation device that is energy-saving in order to transfer a substance such as gas or liquid using a pump, for example. In particular, it is possible to provide a power generation device corresponding to an area where power is not supplied. It is also possible to provide a power generation device that effectively uses natural energy.

Next, a power generation device according to another embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a power generation device according to another embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 6, it is preferable that a plurality of moving

pulleys

15a and 15b be provided in parallel on both sides of the rotating body 50 in the same number. That is, the number of moving

pulleys

15a and 15b and the number of wires 20 and 20 'may be appropriately applied according to the weights of the first weight 30 and the second weight 35. For example, three moving

pulleys

15a and 15b are provided on both sides of the rotating body 50, respectively. At this time, a plurality of rotating bodies 50 and power converters 63 can be provided.

By doing so, even greater power can be output from the power converter 63. Further, by disposing the pressing members 55 as shown in FIG. 5 with different angles for each rotating body 50, it is possible to output smoother and continuous power.

At this time, it is preferable that a plurality of pulleys be provided in parallel as with the movable pulley.

Next, a power generation device according to another embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a power generation device according to another embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 7, it is preferable that a plurality of the moving pulleys and the pulleys are provided in series so that the moving pulleys and the pulleys are arranged in this order from the proximal end side of the wire.

By doing this, it is possible to transmit power with even less force, and it is possible to provide an energy-saving power generator. Also, by changing the length of the wire 20 and the vertical movement distance of the movable pulleys 15 and 15 ', it is possible to provide a power generation device adapted to various situations.
