Description

Sistema submerso de produção de força de empuxo para geração de energia Submerged thrust force production system for power generation
CAMPO DE APLICAÇÃO APPLICATION FIELD
[0001 ] A presente patente de invenção pertence ao campo dos sistemas de produção de força de empuxo propulsivo, mais particularmente, o sistema submerso pode ser integrado a um gerador de energia, ou a qualquer outro meio de conversão de energia cinética em energia mecânica. [0001] The present patent belongs to the field of propulsive thrust force production systems, more particularly, the submerged system can be integrated into a power generator, or any other means of converting kinetic energy into mechanical energy.
[0002] O sistema submerso é dotado de um conjunto de flutuadores que ao receber uma porção de ar comprimido, provê uma movimentação contínua do referido sistema submerso, permitindo a geração de energia, também, de forma contínua. [0002] The submerged system is equipped with a set of floats that, when receiving a portion of compressed air, provide a continuous movement of said submerged system, allowing the generation of energy, also, continuously.
ESTADO DA TÉCNICA STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE
[0003] No Brasil, a energia hidrelétrica é a mais explorada, correspondendo por aproximadamente 65% da matriz energética nacional. Como já é de conhecimento, as hidrelétricas utilizam da força gravitacional da água, represada em barragens, para girar as turbinas que geram a energia elétrica. Apesar das hidrelétricas não utilizarem combustíveis fósseis para gerar a energia elétrica, desvantajosamente, as grandes usinas impactam de forma negativa no meio ambiente. Esses impactos são consequência das grandes áreas de alagamento, dos desmatamentos realizados para sua construção e pelas alterações na estrutura dos rios. [0003] In Brazil, hydroelectric energy is the most exploited, corresponding to approximately 65% of the national energy matrix. As is already known, hydroelectric plants use the gravitational force of water, dammed in dams, to turn the turbines that generate electricity. Although hydroelectric plants do not use fossil fuels to generate electricity, disadvantageously, large plants have a negative impact on the environment. These impacts are a consequence of large areas of flooding, deforestation carried out for their construction and changes in the structure of rivers.
[0004] Já a geração de energia por meio de fonte renováveis, tais como a energia eólica e energia solar, necessitam de áreas muito grandes para gerar uma quantidade significativa de energia elétrica que possa alimentar uma região, mesmo que pequena. [0004] Energy generation through renewable sources, such as wind energy and solar energy, require very large areas to generate a significant amount of electricity that can feed a region, even a small one.
[0005] São conhecidos no estado da técnica, meios de geração contínuo de energia, mais conhecidos como “gerador de energia autossuficiente” ou “gerador de energia perpétuo”, os quais geram energia elétrica por meio da movimentação mecânica contínua sem consumir a energia elétrica gerada ou sem necessitar de fontes externas de energia elétrica. [0005] Are known in the state of the art, means of continuous power generation, better known as "energy generator self-sufficient” or “perpetual power generator”, which generate electrical energy through continuous mechanical movement without consuming the generated electrical energy or without requiring external sources of electrical energy.
[0006] Um exemplo é o documento PI 8702323-7 que revela o uso de meios flutuantes que alternam entre vazios e preenchidos, de modo a manter o sistema em movimento contínuo. Contudo, este modelo de gerador utiliza flutuadores rígidos, semelhantes a um copo, o que desvantajosamente, necessita de um espaço maior, já que a abertura de cada flutuador precisa estar para cima ou para baixo, alternativamente. Além disso, necessitam de alguns estágios com água para submersão dos flutuadores e alguns estágios vazios para drenagem dos ditos flutuadores. [0006] An example is the document PI 8702323-7 which reveals the use of floating means that alternate between empty and filled, in order to keep the system in continuous movement. However, this model of generator uses rigid floats, similar to a glass, which disadvantageously needs a larger space, since the opening of each float needs to be up or down, alternatively. In addition, they need some stages with water for submerging the floats and some empty stages for draining said floats.
[0007] Visando solucionar os inconvenientes do estado da técnica, a presente invenção tem como objetivo prover um sistema submerso de produção de força de empuxo para geração de energia, o qual é dotado de um conjunto de flutuadores flexíveis que são fixados à um mecanismo de transporte que contornam pelo menos dois mecanismos de rotação, garantindo que os flutuadores flexíveis e o mecanismo de transporte transladem em uma órbita elíptica. [0007] In order to solve the drawbacks of the state of the art, the present invention aims to provide a submerged system for producing thrust force for power generation, which is equipped with a set of flexible floats that are attached to a mechanism of transport that bypass at least two rotational mechanisms, ensuring that the flexible floats and the transport mechanism translate in an elliptical orbit.
[0008] Desta forma, a órbita elíptica e os flutuadores flexíveis permitem que o sistema submerso de produção de força de empuxo ocupe um menor espaço lateral. [0008] In this way, the elliptical orbit and flexible floats allow the submerged system to produce thrust force to occupy less lateral space.
[0009] Um outro objetivo da presente invenção é prover um sistema submerso de produção de força de empuxo dotado de um subsistema de compressão de gás, o qual, por meio de uma engrenagem dotada de válvulas pneumáticas ao logo de seus dentes, injeta um fluído gasoso no interior de cada flutuador flexível, inflando-o e movimentando-o por meio do empuxo de cada flutuador flexível submerso. [0010] Desta forma, a injeção do ar comprimido nos flutuadores flexíveis é feita por meio de pelo menos um dos dois mecanismos de rotação, aproveitando o direcionamento dos ditos flutuadores flexíveis, na posição vertical com a abertura para baixo, para injetar o ar comprimido no interior de cada flutuador flexível. [0009] Another objective of the present invention is to provide a submerged thrust force production system equipped with a gas compression subsystem, which, through a gear equipped with pneumatic valves along its teeth, injects a fluid gas inside each flexible float, inflating it and moving it through the thrust of each submerged flexible float. [0010] In this way, the injection of compressed air into the flexible floats is done by means of at least one of the two rotation mechanisms, taking advantage of the direction of said flexible floats, in the vertical position with the opening downwards, to inject the compressed air inside each flexible float.

[0016] A figura 5 revela o compartimento (4), o qual é configurado por uma estrutura cilíndrica, realizando a função de um reservatório. Ainda, o compartimento (4) compreende uma extremidade fechada (40) e uma extremidade aberta (41 ). [0016] Figure 5 reveals the compartment (4), which is configured by a cylindrical structure, performing the function of a reservoir. yet, the housing (4) comprises a closed end (40) and an open end (41).
[0017] Por fim, a figura 6 revela uma outra forma de realização da invenção, em que o compartimento (4) compreende uma plataforma (70) de sustentação e flutuação do sistema (S). [0017] Finally, figure 6 shows another embodiment of the invention, in which the compartment (4) comprises a platform (70) for sustaining and floating the system (S).
DESCRIÇÃO DETALHADA DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] A presente patente de invenção revela um sistema (S) submerso de produção de força de empuxo por meio da diferença de pressão entre um fluído líquido e um fluído gasoso inserido no interior de um flutuador. Particularmente, o referido sistema (S) é integrado à um gerador, transformando a energia cinética em energia elétrica. [0018] The present patent discloses a submerged system (S) for producing thrust force by means of the pressure difference between a liquid fluid and a gaseous fluid inserted inside a float. Particularly, said system (S) is integrated into a generator, transforming kinetic energy into electrical energy.
[0019] Desse modo, conforme ilustrado na figura 1 , o sistema (S) submerso de produção de força de empuxo compreende um conjunto de flutuadores flexíveis (1 ), pelo menos um mecanismo de transporte (2), pelo menos um mecanismo de rotação (3), pelo menos um compartimento (4) e pelo menos um subsistema de compressão de gás (5). [0019] Thus, as illustrated in figure 1, the submerged system (S) for producing buoyancy force comprises a set of flexible floats (1), at least one transport mechanism (2), at least one rotation mechanism (3), at least one compartment (4) and at least one gas compression subsystem (5).
[0020] Conforme figuras 1 e 4, o conjunto de flutuadores (1 ) está acoplado ao mecanismo de transporte (2) que translada sobre o mecanismo de rotação (3) em uma órbita elíptica, por meio da força de empuxo gerada pela diferença de pressão entre o fluído líquido armazenado no compartimento (4) e o fluído gasoso gerado por cada subsistema de compressão de gás (5), cujo fluído gasoso é insuflado para o interior de cada flutuador flexível (10) por meio de pelo menos uma válvula receptora (11 ) e evacuado por meio da extremidade (101 ) do dito flutuador flexível (10). [0020] According to figures 1 and 4, the set of floats (1) is coupled to the transport mechanism (2) which translates on the rotation mechanism (3) in an elliptical orbit, through the buoyancy force generated by the difference in pressure between the liquid fluid stored in the compartment (4) and the gaseous fluid generated by each gas compression subsystem (5), whose gaseous fluid is blown into the interior of each flexible float (10) through at least one receiver valve (11) and evacuated through the end (101) of said flexible float (10).
[0021 ] Será compreendido que o fluído liquido armazenado no compartimento (4) é preferencialmente água, porém, pode ser qualquer outro tipo de liquido que possua viscosidade baixa de modo a permitir, o deslocamento de conjunto de flutuadores (1 ). [0022] Desse modo, conforme figuras 1 e 3, o dito conjunto de flutuadores flexíveis (1 ) por meio de um mecanismo de rotação (3), percorre uma geometria elíptica, já que o mecanismo de rotação (3) compreende pelo menos uma engrenagem inferior (30) e pelo menos uma engrenagem superior (31 ) dispostas sobre o mesmo eixo, de modo a alternar o sentido de cada flutuador flexível (10). [0021] It will be understood that the liquid fluid stored in the compartment (4) is preferably water, however, it can be any other type of liquid that has low viscosity in order to allow the displacement of the set of floats (1). [0022] Thus, according to figures 1 and 3, said set of flexible floats (1) by means of a rotation mechanism (3), runs through an elliptical geometry, since the rotation mechanism (3) comprises at least one lower gear (30) and at least one upper gear (31) arranged on the same axis, so as to alternate the direction of each flexible float (10).
[0023] Desse modo, quando houver diferença de pressão entre o fluido líquido armazenado no compartimento (4) e o fluido gasoso no interior de cada flutuador flexível (10), a força de empuxo promove o deslocamento do conjunto de flutuadores flexíveis (1 ) que estão conectados com o mecanismo de transporte (2) e consequentemente, promove o movimento continuo. [0023] Thus, when there is a pressure difference between the liquid fluid stored in the compartment (4) and the gaseous fluid inside each flexible float (10), the buoyancy force promotes the displacement of the set of flexible floats (1) which are connected with the transport mechanism (2) and consequently promote continuous movement.
[0024] De maneira preferencial, o mecanismo de transporte (2) é configurado por um conjunto de correntes (20), as quais o conjunto de flutuadores flexíveis (1 ) está associado. Desse modo, o conjunto de correntes (20) translada as engrenagens inferior e superior (30, 31 ) respectivamente, fazendo com que os flutuadores (10) estejam em um primeiro momento, com a abertura (101 ) voltada para baixo e um segundo momento, com a abertura (101 ) voltada para cima. [0024] Preferably, the transport mechanism (2) is configured by a set of chains (20), which the set of flexible floats (1) is associated. In this way, the set of chains (20) translates the lower and upper gears (30, 31) respectively, causing the floats (10) to be in a first moment, with the opening (101) facing downwards and a second moment , with the opening (101) facing upwards.
[0025] Conforme ilustrado nas figuras 3 e 4, no momento em que um primeiro flutuador flexível (10) está em contato com a engrenagem inferior (30), este recebe a injeção de ar através da válvula pneumática (300), a qual está disposta sobre cada dente de cada engrenagem inferior (30). Assim, cada flutuador flexível (10) compreende pelo menos uma válvula receptora (11 ), disposta em uma das laterais do flutuador flexível (10). [0025] As illustrated in figures 3 and 4, when a first flexible float (10) is in contact with the lower gear (30), it receives air injection through the pneumatic valve (300), which is disposed over each tooth of each lower gear (30). Thus, each flexible float (10) comprises at least one receiving valve (11), arranged on one of the sides of the flexible float (10).
[0026] Desse modo, quando a válvula pneumática (300) está alinhada com a válvula receptora (11 ), é liberado uma porção de fluido gasoso comprimido para o interior de cada flutuador flexível (10) [0026] Thus, when the pneumatic valve (300) is aligned with the receiver valve (11), a portion of compressed gaseous fluid is released into each flexible float (10)
[0027] Assim, o fluído gasoso é insuflado para o interior de cada flutuador flexível (10) por meio da uma válvula receptora (11 ), e assim, gerada uma pressão positiva no interior do flutuador flexível (10), que se expande, formando então, um bolsão de ar. [0027] Thus, the gaseous fluid is blown into each flexible float (10) through a receiving valve (11), and thus generated a positive pressure inside the flexible float (10), which expands, thus forming an air pocket.
[0028] De acordo com as figuras 3 e 4, a engrenagem superior (31 ), está disposta em uma região não submersa do compartimento (4), já que nesta região, ocorre a evacuação de ar de dentro do flutuador flexível (10) por meio da extremidade aberta (41 ), uma vez que, ao passar pela engrenagem superior (31 ), cada flutuador flexível (10) esvazia-se automaticamente e o peso de sua estrutura o deforma, achatando o flutuador flexível. [0028] According to figures 3 and 4, the upper gear (31) is arranged in a non-submerged region of the compartment (4), since in this region, air is evacuated from inside the flexible float (10) through the open end (41), since, when passing through the upper gear (31), each flexible float (10) automatically empties and the weight of its structure deforms it, flattening the flexible float.
[0029] Em seguida, ainda em contato com a engrenagem superior (31 ), após ser deformado e ter adquirido uma forma chata, o flutuador flexível (10), que antes se deslocava no sentido vertical para cima, agora, desloca-se verticalmente para baixo, tendo seu sentido alterado. Assim, o flutuador desloca-se novamente em direção a água, nesse momento, sem a presença de fluído gasoso em seu interior. [0029] Then, still in contact with the upper gear (31), after being deformed and having acquired a flat shape, the flexible float (10), which previously moved vertically upwards, now moves vertically down, changing its direction. Thus, the float moves again towards the water, at that moment, without the presence of gaseous fluid inside it.
[0030] Ainda, de acordo com a figura 2, o subsistema de compressão de gás (5) compreende pelo menos um compressor (50), pelo menos um reservatório (51 ) e uma tubulação (52) que transporta o gás comprimido até um dos mecanismos de rotação (3), especificamente, a engrenagem inferior (30). Assim, o subsistema de compressão de gás (5), possibilita o aumento da velocidade do flutuador flexível (10), controlando a vazão e a pressão em que o gás comprimido é insuflado para o interior de cada flutuador flexível (10). [0030] Also, according to figure 2, the gas compression subsystem (5) comprises at least one compressor (50), at least one reservoir (51) and a pipe (52) that transports the compressed gas to a of the rotation mechanisms (3), specifically, the lower gear (30). Thus, the gas compression subsystem (5) makes it possible to increase the speed of the flexible float (10), controlling the flow rate and the pressure at which the compressed gas is blown into each flexible float (10).
[0031 ] De acordo com as figuras 4 e 5, o compartimento (4) é um reservatório de água, configurado por uma estrutura preferencialmente cilíndrica, de modo que o compartimento (4) compreende uma extremidade inferior fechada (40) e uma extremidade superior aberta (41 ). A extremidade aberta (41 ) promove a equalização interna do compartimento (4) com o meio externo em que o sistema (S) submerso de produção de força de empuxo está inserido. [0032] Em uma modalidade, o sistema (S) submerso de produção de força de empuxo pode ser integrado a um gerador de energia elétrica produzindo, desta forma, energia elétrica. Em uma outra modalidade, o sistema (S) submerso de produção de força de empuxo pode ser integrado a qualquer meio de conversão de energia cinética em energia mecânica. [0031] According to figures 4 and 5, the compartment (4) is a water reservoir, configured by a preferably cylindrical structure, so that the compartment (4) comprises a lower closed end (40) and an upper end opened (41 ). The open end (41) promotes the internal equalization of the compartment (4) with the external environment in which the submerged system (S) of production of buoyancy force is inserted.
