A scalable multi-degree-of-freedom wave energy generation device

Abstract

The invention discloses an expandable multi-degree-of-freedom wave energy generating device. It includes at least one movement unit, each movement unit includes a central buoy, an upper buoy, a connecting arm, a conversion mechanism and a power output module, the central buoy is hinged with one end of the connecting arm through the conversion mechanism, and the upper buoy is connected to the connecting arm through the conversion mechanism. The other ends are hinged together, and the power output module is arranged in the upper buoy. The present invention can collect wave energy through the movement of the collection device on multiple degrees of freedom, thereby absorbing wave energy to the greatest extent, improving wave energy collection efficiency and wave conversion efficiency, and the device has high scalability, and it is easy to install several sets of the device A wave energy power plant with ultra-high flexibility and centralized maintenance is formed, which improves the reliability and working life of the device, and reduces the difficulty of maintenance and management of the device and the economic cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device in the field of wave power generation, in particular to an expandable multi-degree-of-freedom wave power generation device. Background technique [0002] After the 21st century, with the continuous advancement of sustainable development, more and more countries are paying more attention to the development and utilization of marine energy. Various power generation systems, platforms and The research and development of the device came into being. At present, for the development and utilization of wave energy, there are many types of power generation devices. Due to the different mechanisms of device capture wave energy, the installation location and water depth conditions of the device are different, and the ways of converting wave energy into electrical energy are also various. According to the working principle of the device, wave power devices can be roughly divided into three categories, including oscillating water ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is the problem that the wave energy generation device collects wave energy in one direction and one degree of freedom so that the efficiency of energy collection is not high, and when the wave energy generation device needs to be arranged in an array, the workload of the arrangement is large and centralized maintenance is required. Difficulty, low scalability and high cost
