Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of renewable energy in marine engineering, and in particular relates to a tension-compression combined self-regulating bistable wave energy converter. Background Art
[0002] As a high-quality new renewable energy source, ocean wave energy offers advantages such as safety, cleanliness, high energy density, and low transmission losses. However, conventional linear wave energy converters have low energy capture efficiency. Furthermore, wave energy converters that use hydraulics for energy transmission struggle to meet efficiency and reliability requirements. One approach to improving energy harvesting in conventional linear wave energy converters is to incorporate a bistable mechanism. However, due to the irregularity of waves, it is difficult for them to cross the "potential barrier" and move between wells when the wave excitation is low. Instead, they move within the well, resulting in low energy capture efficiency. Bistable mechanisms are mostly implemented using springs, and a single coil spring is prone to bending and becoming unstable when compressed. Self-regulating bistable mechanisms composed solely of compression springs have poor stability and are difficult to disassemble and assemble, while also having low space utilization.

[0049] The present invention works as follows:
[0050] The tension-compression combined self-regulating bistable wave energy converter of the present invention is floated on the waves, wherein the upper end of the guide rod 2 is vertically fixed on a floating breakwater or similar structure, the float body 1 oscillates up and down under the excitation of the waves, and the end cover 12 slides in the vertical direction relative to the guide rod 2. Figure 15 As shown, the balance plane of the float body 1 oscillating up and down coincides with the horizontal plane where the two optical axes of the upper horizontal axis 34 are located. At this time, the guide shaft 42, the compression spring 43, the pivot connection 412, the platform mainboard 411, the second linear bearing 454, and the articulated sleeve 453 are all located on the balance plane.
[0051] from Figures 14 to 15 As shown, the guide rod 2 is fixed in the vertical direction. Under the excitation of waves, the float body 1 is above the equilibrium plane and moves downward to the equilibrium plane. The float body 1 moves downward along the axis of the guide rod 2. The platform main plate 411 moves upward relative to the float body 1. The guide connecting plate 414 and the guide rod 2 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the platform main plate 411 move upward relative to each other. The rack fixing member 413 and the rack 51 fixedly connected to the lower surface of the platform main plate 411 also move upward relative to each other. Due to the relative upward movement of the platform main plate 411, the two left and right pivot connecting members 412 connected to the pivot shaft 412 move upward and rotate relative to each other. The angle between the two pivot connecting members 412 gradually increases to 180 degrees. The guide shaft 42 fixedly connected to the pivot connecting member 412 rotates with the pivot connecting member 412. The compression spring 43 on the guide shaft 42 rotates with the guide shaft 42 and is compressed to store elastic potential energy. Under the action of the compression spring 43, the second linear bearing 454 The hinge sleeve 453 slides axially along the guide shaft 42, thereby driving the hinge sleeve 453 to slide axially along the guide shaft 42, and then driving the transverse slider 45 to slide on the upper transverse shaft 34, that is, the transverse sliders 45 on the left and right sides slide in a direction away from each other. At this time, the tension spring 44 is stretched and also stores elastic potential energy. Therefore, the combined use of the compression spring and the tension spring can both store elastic potential energy. Compared with a bistable mechanism with only a compression spring but no tension spring, the problem of excessive potential barrier when the compression spring 43 acts alone is avoided, and the potential barrier has the effect of self-regulation. Because the compression spring 43 is sleeved on the guide shaft 42 and the tension spring 44 is always in a stretched state, neither the compression spring 43 nor the tension spring 44 will bend during operation. Moreover, the self-regulating bistable mechanism 4 is triangular in shape when moving, and the structure is compact and takes up little space, making the mechanism more stable.
[0052] Further, such as Figure 15 and Figure 16As shown, when the float body 1 continues to move downward across the balance plane, that is, the float body 1 continues to move downward along the axis of the guide rod 2, the platform mainboard 411 moves upward relative to the float body 1 to above the balance plane, and the horizontal sliders 45 on the left and right sides slide toward each other. At this time, the tension spring 44 and the compression spring 43 simultaneously release potential energy, which is then converted into kinetic energy of the wave energy converter, thereby increasing the motion response of the wave energy converter.
[0053] Furthermore, when the rack 51 moves upward with the platform mainboard 411 relative to the float body 1, the first longitudinal slider 512 and the second longitudinal slider 513 fixedly connected to the rack 51 slide on the intermediate longitudinal shaft 37. Since the input gear 52 is engaged with the rack 51, and as shown in FIG. Figure 16 As shown, the meshing working surface of rack 51 faces left, so rack 51 drives input gear 52 to rotate counterclockwise. The first longitudinal slider 512 and the second longitudinal slider 513 ensure meshing accuracy. Input gear 52 drives input drive shaft 55 to rotate counterclockwise, which in turn drives intermediate gear 53 to rotate counterclockwise. Since intermediate gear 53 meshes with output gear 54, it drives output gear 54 to rotate clockwise, which in turn drives output drive shaft 56 to rotate clockwise. Output drive shaft 56 drives generator 61 through coupling 57 to generate electricity. By adjusting the transmission ratio between intermediate gear 53 and output gear 54 and further increasing the number of transmission gear stages, the output drive shaft 56 can output a suitable speed for power generation under different sea conditions.
[0054] Similarly, in the opposite direction, Figure 16 to Figure 15 Then to Figure 14 As shown, under wave excitation, when the float body 1 moves upward, the platform mainboard 411 moves downward relative to the float body 1, which is eventually converted into a counterclockwise rotation of the output transmission shaft 56, thereby driving the generator 61 to generate electricity.
[0055] When removing the compression spring 43 of the self-adjusting bistable mechanism 4, an external force stretches the tension spring 44, causing the two transverse sliders 45 on either side to move away from each other until the guide shaft 42 is completely free of the transverse slider 45. The compression spring 43 can then be removed by removing the articulated sleeve 453 and the second linear bearing 454 from the guide shaft 42. The tension spring 44 can be removed by removing the clip 455, thereby facilitating adjustment of the operating parameters of the self-adjusting bistable mechanism 4. Because the barrier of the self-adjusting bistable mechanism 4 is self-adjusting, it is easier to achieve inter-well oscillation than conventional bistable mechanisms with fixed barriers, thereby expanding the motion amplitude and increasing the power generation efficiency of the generator 61.

Any modifications and changes made to the present invention within the scope of protection of the present invention and the claims shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
