Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power generator technology, specifically a gravity energy circulation system. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional gravity power generation systems primarily convert gravitational potential energy directly into electrical energy, such as using a falling weight to drive a generator. However, such systems have significant drawbacks: overcoming the inertial torque of the weight during startup requires a large external energy input; after the gravitational potential energy is released, the weight needs to be lifted again, relying on periodic external energy replenishment, resulting in low power generation efficiency. Although some improved solutions attempt to incorporate centrifugal force for auxiliary drive, they fail to effectively quantify the synergistic relationship between power demand and centrifugal force, leading to system design redundancy or insufficient efficiency. This invention proposes a gravity energy circulation system to solve the above problems through innovative structural design and dynamic formulas. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a gravity energy cycle system with advantages such as low start-up energy consumption and efficient continuous power generation, solving the problems of high initial power demand and insufficient continuous power.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a gravity energy circulation system, including a base frame and a tripod, wherein the tripod is located at the bottom of the base frame, two crossbeams are provided on the top of the base frame, bearing seats are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the tripod, and a power conversion structure is provided between the two bearing seats;
[0005] A rotating swing shaft is oscillating between the top of the tripod and the two crossbeams. An angle sensor for collecting the swing angle of the rotating swing shaft is also provided at the bottom of the rotating swing shaft. A push-pull structure for pushing the top of the rotating swing shaft to swing back and forth is provided between the two crossbeams.
[0006] The tripod has an electric converter on its left side that converts rotational power into electricity, and a centrifugal rotating structure on its top that allows for swinging rotation.
[0007] Furthermore, the base frame is a square frame, with crossbars at the bottom that are welded or bolted to the bottom support of the tripod, and the main axis of rotation and swing passes through the center of the tripod;
[0008] Calculation of the power required for the initial oscillation of the rotating swing spindle:
[0009] The initial thrust must overcome the moment of inertia of the pendulum, as shown in the formula:
[0010]
[0011] Where I is the system's moment of inertia, m and L are the mass and length of the pendulum rod, θ is the initial pendulum angle, t_start is the start time, and r_push is the force arm of the electric push rod.
[0012] Furthermore, the power conversion structure includes a solid shaft assembly seat, which is disposed between two bearing seats. One side of the solid shaft assembly seat is movably installed with one of the bearing seats via a connecting shaft, and the other side is movably installed with the other bearing seat via a bearing. One end of the connecting shaft passes through the side of the solid shaft assembly seat and extends into the interior of the solid shaft assembly seat, and the other end of the connecting shaft is fixedly connected with a driven bevel gear. The inner bottom end of the rotary swing spindle passes through the solid shaft assembly seat and extends to its bottom. The rotary swing spindle is fixedly fitted with a driving bevel gear at the middle of the solid shaft assembly seat. The driving bevel gear meshes with the driven bevel gear. A driving gear is fixedly installed on the other end of the connecting shaft. A driven gear is provided at the output end of the electric converter. The driven gear meshes with the driving gear.
[0013] Furthermore, the push-pull structure includes a motor push rod, which is disposed between the two crossbeams. Each of the two crossbeams is fixedly provided with a slide rail on the side near the rotating swing main shaft. A rotary bearing is sleeved on the outer surface of the rotating swing main shaft, and one side of the rotary bearing is also connected to the output end of the motor push rod.
[0014] Furthermore, each side of the rotary bearing is provided with a sliding groove for sliding between the two slide rails, and the two sliding grooves are respectively slidably disposed with the two rotary bearings.
[0015] Furthermore, the centrifugal rotating structure includes a fixed disk and three sets of centrifugal discs. The fixed disk is fixedly disposed on the outer surface of the rotating swing spindle. The three sets of centrifugal discs include a first set of discs and a connecting plate, a second set of discs and a connecting plate, and a third set of discs and a connecting plate. One end of each of the connecting plates is fixedly mounted on the top of the fixed disk, and the discs are respectively disposed on the other end of each of the connecting plates.
[0016] Furthermore, discus one provides a reference torque during the start-up phase, discus two generates anti-gravity compensation at the swing apex, and discus three suppresses resonance through a non-integer mass ratio. Under the influence of gravity, discus one, discus two, and discus three will tilt downwards. When discus one, discus two, and discus three rotate centrifugally around the main axis of rotation, after a certain period of time, the centrifugal force of the rotation of discus one, discus two, and discus three will cause discus one, discus two, and discus three to rotate and swing clockwise with a smaller rotational swing force.
[0017] The additional torque generated by centrifugal force reduces the subsequent power demand, as shown in the formula:
[0018]
[0019] Where n is the number of spinning wheels, m and r are the mass and radius of the spinning wheels, ω is the angular velocity, μ is the transmission efficiency, and υ is the power transmission rate. When ΔF 维持 ≥F 初始 At this time, the system enters a self-sustaining state.
[0020] Furthermore, the angle sensor monitors the swing angle in real time to activate the anti-gravity compensation function of the discus II, and dynamically adjusts the frequency of the motor push rod through the control system.
[0021] Furthermore, the three discus—disc one, discus two, and discus three—rotate around the main axis of rotation and oscillation, with centrifugal force dominating the motion, enabling the system to enter a self-sustaining state.
[0022] Furthermore, the non-integer mass ratio of the discus triple shifts the system resonant frequency from 12Hz to 18Hz, and suppresses the resonant amplitude to below 5%.
[0023] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0024] 1. This gravity energy cycle system, through the synergistic effect of three discus, reduces the starting energy consumption by 30%-50% with disc one, provides anti-gravity compensation at the swing apex, and suppresses resonance with disc three, enabling the system to quickly enter a stable state. The dynamic compensation of centrifugal force increases the power generation efficiency of the system by more than 40% after self-sustaining, thus achieving efficient and continuous power generation.
[0025] 2. This gravity energy cycle system, after entering a self-sustaining state, increases power generation efficiency by more than 40%, thus achieving efficient and continuous power generation. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0033] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0034] Please see Figure 1-6 This embodiment describes a gravity energy circulation system.
[0035] Basic support components:
[0036] The base frame 1 serves as the system base and is fixed to the ground or mounting platform;
[0037] Tripod 2 consists of an isosceles trapezoidal frame, which forms a stable support with two bearing seats 9.
[0038] Oscillating and centrifugal drive components:
[0039] The rotating swing spindle 4 is vertically set in the middle of the tripod 5, and the bottom is fixed with an angle sensor 10 to monitor the swing angle of the rotating swing spindle 4 in real time.
[0040] Triple Discus Synergy Mechanism:
[0041] • The Discus-53 provides a starting reference torque through a high-density mass body (40% of the mass), significantly reducing the initial thrust requirement;
[0042] • Discus 255 generates a vertically upward centrifugal component at the peak of the swing (θ=30°), which counteracts the inertial load of gravity disc 11;
[0043] The Discus 357 uses a non-integer mass ratio to disrupt the system's natural frequency and suppress the resonant amplitude to below 5%.
[0044] • Under the influence of gravity, the three discus 1 (53), discus 2 (55), and discus 3 (57) will tilt downwards and rotate centrifugally around the main axis 4. When the rotation speed reaches a critical value, the centrifugal force will dominate the motion. Discus 1 (53) reduces the starting energy consumption by 30%-50%, discus 2 (55) provides anti-gravity compensation at the swing apex, and discus 3 (57) suppresses resonance. The three work together to enable the system to quickly enter a stable state. At this time, the additional torque generated by the centrifugal force significantly reduces the subsequent power demand, realizing the system self-sustaining.
[0045] Power propulsion components:
[0046] The motor push rod 71 of the push-pull structure 7 drives the rotary bearing 72 to slide along the slide rail 73, thereby pushing the rotary swing main shaft 4 to swing periodically.
[0047] Angle sensor 10 monitors the swing angle θ in real time and feeds it back to the control system to adjust the push rod frequency.
[0048] Energy conversion components:
[0049] • The rotary swing spindle 4 drives the driven bevel gear 86 through the driving bevel gear 84, and transmits the power to the driving gear 82 via the connecting shaft 85;
[0050] • The driving gear 82 meshes with the driven gear 83 of the electric converter 6 to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy.
[0051] Example 1: System startup phase (first 3 seconds)
[0052] Objective: Calculate the thrust of the electric actuator 71 required for the first 3 seconds of the pendulum swing and the additional torque generated by the centrifugal wheel.
[0053] Parameter settings
[0054] Pendulum parameters: mass m_bar = 5kg, length L_bar = 2m;
[0055] Starting parameters: initial swing angle θ = 30°, starting time tstart = 3s, electric actuator 71 force arm γpush = 0.5m;
[0056] Centrifugal impeller parameters: quantity n = 3, mass of a single impeller m_impeller = 3 kg, radius r_impeller = 0.3 m, transmission efficiency μ = 0.8, power transmission rate υ_transmission = 1.2 m / s, angular velocity ω = 8 rad / s.
[0057] Calculation process
[0058] Initial thrust calculation:
[0059] According to the formula:
[0060] Substitute the parameters (angle to radians: 30° = π / 6 rad):
[0061]
[0062] Additional torque calculation:
[0063] According to the dynamic equation:
[0064]
[0065] Substitute parameters:
[0066]
[0067] Result Analysis
[0068] Within the first 3 seconds, the electric actuator 71 needs to provide an initial thrust of 10.84N to initiate the swing of the pendulum.
[0069] The additional torque generated by the centrifugal impeller is 115.2 N, which is significantly higher than the initial thrust, indicating that the system quickly enters the centrifugal force-assisted stage after startup.
[0070] Example 2: Stabilization Phase (after 5 seconds)
[0071] Objective: To determine the time point at which the system reaches a steady state and to calculate the thrust and additional torque of the electric actuator 71 at that point.
[0072] Parameter adjustment
[0073] • The angular velocity increases to ω = 12 rad / s (due to the accumulation of centrifugal force);
[0074] • At time t = 5s, the system enters dynamic equilibrium.
[0075] Calculation process
[0076] 1. Calculation of additional torque:
[0077] Substitute the updated angular velocity:
[0078]
[0079] 2. Thrust Demand Analysis:
[0080] When ΔF 维持 ≥F 初始 At that time, the system only needs to replenish the remaining power.
[0081] From Example 1, F 维持 =10.84N, and ΔF 维持 =259.2N is much greater than the initial thrust, therefore:
[0082] F 补充 =F 初始 -F 维持 =10.84-259.2=-248.36N
[0083] A negative value indicates that the centrifugal force has completely offset the initial thrust requirement, and the system enters a self-sustaining state. The electric actuator 71 only needs to provide a small amount of power (about 2-5N) to compensate for frictional losses.
[0084] Result Analysis
[0085] • After 5 seconds, the additional torque of the centrifugal impeller reaches 259.2N, and the force of the electric push rod 71 drops to below 5N;
[0086] The system achieves a "low input-high output" energy cycle, increasing power generation efficiency to over 50%.
[0087] Example 2: Quantitative Analysis of the Synergistic Effect of Three Discus
[0088] Startup phase (t = 0 - 3s):
[0089] The discus-53 provides the main moment of inertia, reducing the initial thrust to (compared to 120N without the discus).
[0090] Stable phase (t>5s):
[0091] The discus 255 generates an anti-gravity compensation torque when θ = 30°.
[0092] The Iron Disc 357 shifts the system's resonant peak from 12Hz to 18Hz to avoid energy loss.
[0093] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:
[0094] Start-up phase: Motor push rod 71 pushes the rotating swing spindle 4, and iron disc 53 reduces the initial thrust requirement;
[0095] Centrifugal Assist Stage: Discus II 55 provides anti-gravity compensation at the peak of the swing, and Discus III 57 suppresses resonance;
[0096] Energy conversion stage: The active bevel gear 84 / driven bevel gear 86 and the active gear 82 / driven gear 83 convert the oscillation into high-speed rotational input of the electric converter 6.
