Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power generation, and in particular to an LNG cold energy power generation device based on in-cylinder expansion. Background Art
[0002] my country's import of liquefied natural gas (LNG) has increased year by year, and with it comes the problem of waste of LNG cold energy. LNG cold energy is mainly used for cold energy power generation, air separation, and cryogenic crushing, but other applications except cold energy power generation have relatively low utilization of cold energy. The Stirling engine can effectively utilize the ability generated by temperature difference and perform effective physical energy conversion, which can make better and more efficient use of cold energy that is difficult to apply, thereby saving the consumption of other energy and making great use of existing energy.
[0003] Chinese patent CN211058917U discloses a cold energy power generation device based on expansion in a cylinder, comprising a shell, a power chamber is provided at the bottom end of the shell, a first delivery chamber and a function control chamber are symmetrically provided at the top of the shell, a cryogenic pump is provided inside the first delivery chamber, a heat exchanger matched with the cryogenic pump is provided at the bottom end of the cryogenic pump, a water outlet matched with the heat exchanger is provided on the side away from the first delivery chamber, a high-pressure piston cylinder and a low-pressure piston cylinder matched with the first delivery chamber and the function control chamber are respectively provided at the bottom ends thereof, a connecting frame is provided between the high-pressure piston cylinder and the low-pressure piston cylinder, an environmental waterway matched with the function control chamber is provided on the outer wall of the connecting frame, a piston matched with the high-pressure piston cylinder and the low-pressure piston cylinder are provided inside the high-pressure piston cylinder and the low-pressure piston cylinder, a piston matched with the piston is provided at the bottom end of the piston, a power rod matched with the power chamber is provided at the bottom end of the piston rod, and a generator matched with the power rod is provided at the end of the power rod away from the power chamber.
[0004] Although the above scheme can effectively utilize cold energy, a heat exchanger, a cryogenic pump and a functional control room are used in the conversion process. The above devices all need to be powered. After the cold energy is converted into electrical energy, multiple devices in the conversion device need to be powered, which greatly reduces the conversion efficiency of electrical energy. From the Clapeyron equation PV=(m / M)RT, it can be seen that the air volume is proportional to the temperature, and the lowest temperature that LNG can reach after decompression is limited, and even absolute zero is only minus 273.15 degrees. Traditional Stirling generators are mostly driven by thermal energy. This is because under the heating of the fire source, the temperature can easily exceed 273.15 degrees, so the temperature change value will be large. If the temperature change value is too small, the Stirling generator will not be able to rotate. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0031] In order to further understand the features, technical means, specific objectives and functions of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0032] Reference Figure 1: An LNG cold energy power generation device based on in-cylinder expansion, comprising a bracket 1, a Stirling generator 2 horizontally arranged on the bracket 1 and a conversion device 3; the conversion device 3 comprises a heat conductor 31, an initial starting device 32, a transmission device 33, a rotating disk 34, a heat transfer device 35, a connecting pipe 36 and a speed sensor; the heat conductor 31 is arranged on one side of the Stirling generator 2, and the heat conductor 31 can absorb the heat of the Stirling generator 2; the rotating disk 34 is rotatably arranged on one side of the Stirling generator 2, and the axis of the rotating disk 34 is perpendicular to the axis of the output shaft of the Stirling generator 2; the initial starting device 32 is arranged on the side of the rotating disk 34 away from the Stirling generator 2, and the initial starting device 32 can drive the rotating disk 34 to rotate, and the initial starting device 32 uses the flowing LNG as a power source ; The transmission device 33 is arranged on the output end of the Stirling generator 2, and the transmission device 33 can make the rotating disk 34 disconnected from the initial starting device 32 and provide drive to the rotating disk 34 after disconnection; a plurality of heat transfer devices 35 are arranged, and the heat transfer devices 35 are evenly arranged on the rotating disk 34 around the axis of the rotating disk 34, and the heat transfer devices 35 can absorb the heat on the heat conductor 31; the connecting pipe 36 is spirally arranged on the outside of the Stirling generator 2, and LNG is arranged in the connecting pipe 36, and one end of the connecting pipe 36 is connected to the initial starting device 32; the speed sensor is arranged on the output shaft of the Stirling generator 2, and the speed sensor is used to monitor the output shaft speed of the Stirling generator 2. A controller is arranged on one side of the speed sensor, and the speed sensor controls the operation of the transmission device 33 through the controller.
[0033] The initial starting device 32 can provide the initial rotational force for the rotating disk 34, the heat conducting member 31 can absorb the heat generated by the Stirling generator 2 and transfer it to the heat transfer device 35, the temperature of the LNG in the connecting pipe 36 is very low, and the temperature on one side of the Stirling generator 2 can be reduced to more than minus 100 degrees. As the rotating disk 34 rotates, the heat transfer device 35 on the rotating disk 34 reaches one side of the Stirling generator 2 and isolates the connecting pipe 36 from the Stirling generator 2, the temperature around the Stirling generator 2 rises rapidly, and the contracted air in the Stirling generator 2 gradually recovers and expands. The rotating disk 34 continues to rotate, causing the heat transfer device 35 to leave the Stirling generator 2, and the connecting pipe 36 cools down the Stirling generator 2 again, thereby causing the Stirling generator 2 to rotate. The Stirling generator 2 keeps rotating, and obtains an initial speed. After the speed sensor detects that the speed of the Stirling generator 2 rises to the specified speed, the controller controls the transmission device 33 to disconnect the rotating disk 34 from the initial starting device 32, and the Stirling generator 2 controls the rotating disk 34 to rotate through the transmission device 33. The rotating disk 34 is synchronized with the speed of the Stirling generator 2 through the transmission device 33. As the speed of the Stirling generator 2 continues to increase, the rotating disk 34 connected to the Stirling generator 2 through the transmission device 33 will also increase its speed synchronously. In this way, the heat conversion efficiency at the Stirling generator 2 will continue to increase, effectively improving the power generation efficiency of the Stirling generator 2. At the same time, when the device is running, only the speed sensor needs to be powered, which greatly reduces energy loss. Of course, the speed of the Stirling generator 2 will not rise endlessly. This is because it takes a certain amount of time for the air to heat up and cool down. When the minimum and maximum temperatures are constant, the speed of the Stirling generator 2 will eventually be in a uniform state, that is, the speed of the Stirling generator 2 continues to rise, and the frequency of hot and cold conversion becomes faster. However, if the time for hot and cold conversion is too short, the temperature difference will be too small, which will cause the speed of the Stirling generator 2 to decrease. When the speed of the Stirling generator 2 drops to a certain level, the frequency of hot and cold conversion slows down, and the time for hot and cold conversion increases greatly. The speed of the Stirling generator 2 will also increase accordingly, and the Stirling generator 2 will not burn out.
[0034] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Fig.10The heat transfer device 35 includes a heat absorbing shell 351, an arc groove 352, a first guide rod 353, a sliding block 354, a first spring 355, a limit seat 356 and a pushing device 357; a plurality of arc grooves 352 are provided, and the arc grooves 352 are evenly arranged on the rotating disk 34 around the axis of the rotating disk 34; the heat absorbing shell 351 is slidably arranged in the arc groove 352 along the axis of the rotating disk 34; the sliding block 354 is arranged on one side of the heat absorbing shell 351, and when the heat absorbing shell 351 slides, it can drive the sliding block 354 to move together; the first guide rod 353 is arc-shaped -shaped structure, the first guide rod 353 is arranged on the sliding block 354 around the axis of the rotating disk 34; the limiting seats 356 are respectively fixedly arranged at both ends of the first guide rod 353, and there is a first gap between the sliding block 354 and the limiting seats 356; the first spring 355 is arranged in the first gap along the extension direction of the first guide rod 353; the pushing device 357 is arranged on the side of the heat absorption shell 351 away from the Stirling generator 2, and the pushing device 357 can push the heat absorption shell 351 toward the Stirling generator 2 and wrap one side of the Stirling generator 2.
[0035] When the rotating disk 34 drives the arc groove 352 to rotate to one side of the Stirling generator 2, the heat absorption shell 351 will also be gradually pushed out by the pushing device 357. After being pushed out, the heat absorption shell 351 gradually wraps one side of the Stirling generator 2, and the extended heat absorption shell 351 is located between the Stirling generator 2 and the connecting pipe 36, so that the Stirling generator 2 can be better heated. At this time, the rotating disk 34 is still rotating, and the heat absorption shell 351 drives the sliding block 354 to slide on the first guide rod 353, and the sliding block 354 squeezes the first spring 355. When the heat absorption shell 351 is about to reach one end of the arc groove 352, the pushing device 357 drives the heat absorption shell 351 to retract, and at the same time, the first spring 355 will also drive the heat absorption shell 351 to reset through the sliding block 354.
[0036] Reference Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Fig.10 The pushing device 357 includes a guide shell 3571, a guide groove 3572, a protruding column 3573 and a protruding groove 3574; the guide shell 3571 is an annular structure, and the guide shell 3571 is arranged along the axis of the rotating disk 34 on the side of the rotating disk 34 away from the Stirling generator 2; the guide groove 3572 is an arc-shaped structure, and the guide groove 3572 is arranged on the guide shell 3571 along the axis of the guide shell 3571; the protruding groove 3574 is arranged on the guide groove 3572, and the two ends of the protruding groove 3574 are respectively connected to the guide groove 3572, and the protruding groove 3574 protrudes toward one side of the rotating disk 34 along the axis of the rotating disk 34; the protruding column 3573 is fixedly arranged on the outer side wall of the heat absorption shell 351, and the protruding column 3573 is slidably matched with the protruding groove 3574.
[0037] When the heat absorption shell 351 is about to reach one side of the Stirling generator 2, the protruding column 3573 on the heat absorption shell 351 will slide from the guide groove 3572 to one side of the protruding groove 3574. As the protruding column 3573 slides into the protruding groove 3574, under the guidance of the protruding groove 3574, the protruding column 3573 will approach the side of the Stirling generator 2, thereby making the heat absorption shell 351 approach the Stirling generator 2. When the heat absorption shell 351 is about to reach one end of the arc groove 352, the protruding column 3573 slides out of the protruding groove 3574 and enters the guide groove 3572, thereby driving the heat absorption shell 351 to retract. It is worth noting that the inner wall of the heat absorption shell 351 and the Stirling generator 2 are clearance-matched when they are mounted together, thereby avoiding the situation that the heat absorption shell 351 cannot be accurately mounted on the Stirling generator 2 when the rotating disk 34 rotates.
[0038] Reference Fig.10 : The heat transfer device 35 also includes a protrusion 3541 and a groove 3542; the protrusion 3541 is fixedly arranged on the side of the sliding block 354 close to the heat absorption shell 351; the groove 3542 is opened on the side wall of the heat absorption shell 351 along the axis of the heat absorption shell 351, and the protrusion 3541 and the groove 3542 are slidably matched.
[0039] In order to ensure that the heat absorption shell 351 can be stably mounted on the Stirling generator 2, a protrusion 3541 is provided on the sliding block 354, so that the protrusion 3541 and the groove 3542 are slidably matched, so that the heat absorption shell 351 will not rotate when it is extended or retracted, thereby ensuring that the protruding column 3573 provided on the side wall of the heat absorption shell 351 will not slip out of the guide groove 3572 and the protruding groove 3574.
[0040] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 The initial starting device 32 includes a turbine 321, a first clamping block 322 and a second clamping block 323; the turbine 321 is connected to one end of a connecting pipe 36, and LNG flows from the turbine 321 into the connecting pipe 36; the first clamping block 322 is fixedly arranged on the output end of the turbine 321, and the cross-section of the first clamping block 322 is a non-circular structure; a movable groove is provided on the rotating disk 34, and the cross-section of the movable groove is a non-circular structure, and the second clamping block 323 is slidably arranged in the movable groove, and a clamping groove is provided at one end of the second clamping block 323 close to the first clamping block 322, and the clamping groove can be clamped and matched with the first clamping block 322.
[0041] When the transmission device 33 is started, the second clamping block 323 will approach the first clamping block 322, and the clamping groove on the second clamping block 323 will be clamped with the first clamping block 322. Since the turbine 321 is always running under the action of the flowing LNG, after the first clamping block 322 is clamped with the clamping groove, the second clamping block 323 can drive the rotating disk 34 to rotate.
[0042] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The transmission device 33 includes a first bevel gear 331, a second bevel gear 332, an attraction device 333, a first belt conveyor assembly 334, a second belt conveyor assembly 335, a second guide rod 336 and a guide seat 337; the first bevel gear 331 is fixedly arranged on the output end of the Stirling generator 2; the second bevel gear 332 is arranged on one side of the first bevel gear 331 along the axis of the rotating disk 34, and the first bevel gear 331 and the second bevel gear 332 are meshed with each other; the first belt conveyor assembly 334 is vertically arranged on one side of the second bevel gear 332; the second belt conveyor assembly 335 is arranged on one side of the rotating disk 34 close to the first belt conveyor assembly 334 On the other side, one end of the second belt conveyor assembly 335 is connected to the rotating disk 34, and the first belt conveyor assembly 334 drives the rotating disk 34 to rotate through the second belt conveyor assembly 335; the guide seat 337 is horizontally fixedly arranged below the second belt conveyor assembly 335; the attraction device 333 is arranged on the guide seat 337, and the attraction device 333 can attract the second belt conveyor assembly 335 and make the first belt conveyor assembly 334 approach the second belt conveyor assembly 335; the second guide rod 336 is slidably arranged on the guide seat 337 along the axis of the rotating disk 34, and the second guide rod 336 provides guidance for the movement of the first belt conveyor assembly 334.
[0043] The first belt conveyor assembly 334 and the second belt conveyor assembly 335 have similar structures, and both use synchronous wheels and synchronous belts to realize transmission. When the device is just started, the initial starting device 32 drives the rotating disk 34 to rotate, the first bevel gear 331 and the second bevel gear 332 are in a disengaged state, and the attraction device 333 attracts the first belt assembly. After the speed sensor detects that the speed of the Stirling generator 2 reaches the specified speed, the attraction device 333 stops running, the first belt assembly moves away from the second belt assembly, the first bevel gear 331 and the second bevel gear 332 are engaged, and when the first bevel gear 331 and the second bevel gear 332 are engaged, the second bevel gear 332 drives the first belt conveyor assembly 334 to rotate, and the first belt conveyor assembly 334 drives the second belt conveyor assembly 335 to rotate, thereby causing the rotating disk 34 to rotate. It is worth noting that no matter how the first belt conveyor assembly 334 slides, the first belt conveyor assembly 334 can drive the second belt conveyor assembly 335 to rotate.
[0044] Reference Figure 6 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9The attraction device 333 includes an electromagnet 3331, a sliding seat 3332, a through shaft 3333, a receiving plate 3334 and a second spring 3335; the electromagnet 3331 is fixedly arranged on the upper part of the guide seat 337, and the electromagnet 3331 has an attraction effect on the first belt conveyor assembly 334; the sliding seat 3332 is fixedly arranged on the lower part of the first belt conveyor assembly 334, and the sliding seat 3332 is slidably arranged in the guide seat 337 along the axis of the rotating disk 34, and the second guide rod 336 penetrates the sliding seat 3332, and the second guide rod 336 is slidably matched with the sliding seat 3332, and there is a second spring between the sliding seat 3332 and the guide seat 337 The electromagnet 3331 can attract the sliding seat 3332; the second spring 3335 is arranged in the second gap along the axis of the second guide rod 336; the through shaft 3333 is fixedly arranged on the side of the first belt conveyor assembly 334 close to the rotating disk 34 along the axis of the rotating disk 34, and the through shaft 3333 penetrates the second belt conveyor assembly 335 and slides with the second belt conveyor assembly 335; the receiving plate 3334 is arranged at one end of the through shaft 3333 away from the first belt conveyor assembly 334, and the second clamping block 323 is provided with an annular groove along the axis of the rotating disk 34, and the receiving plate 3334 is hinged to the annular groove on the side away from the through shaft 3333.
[0045] When attraction is required, the electromagnet 3331 is energized, and the sliding seat 3332 slides toward the electromagnet 3331 under the attraction of the electromagnet 3331, the second spring 3335 is stretched, and the first belt conveyor assembly 334 arranged on the sliding seat 3332 moves therewith, and the through shaft 3333 and the supporting plate 3334 also move with the first belt conveyor assembly 334. At this time, the first clamping block 322 gradually engages with the clamping groove.
[0046] Reference Fig. 9 : The cross section of the through shaft 3333 is a non-circular structure.
[0047] By setting the cross section of the through shaft 3333 to a non-circular structure, the first belt conveyor assembly 334 can drive the second belt conveyor assembly 335 through the through shaft 3333 after the first belt conveyor assembly 334 approaches the second belt conveyor assembly 335 .
[0048] Reference Fig.11 : The conversion device 3 also includes a first heat insulation plate 341; the first heat insulation plate 341 is arranged on the rotating disk 34 between the arc grooves 352.
[0049] Since the rotating disk 34 itself also has thermal conductivity, the first heat insulation plate 341 can be provided to prevent the heat of the rotating disk 34 from affecting the connecting pipe 36 , thereby ensuring that the connecting pipe 36 can cool down the Stirling generator 2 normally.
[0050] Reference Figure 6 , Figure 8 and Fig.11 : The conversion device 3 also includes a heat insulation device 37; the heat insulation device 37 includes a gear ring 371, a first gear 372, a second gear 373 and a second heat insulation plate 374; the gear ring 371 is fixedly arranged on the periphery of the rotating disk 34 along the axis of the rotating disk 34; the first gear 372 is arranged on one side of the gear ring 371, and the first gear 372 and the gear ring 371 are meshed; the second gear 373 is fixedly arranged on one end of the first gear 372 close to the Stirling generator 2 along the axis of the first gear 372, and the second gear 373 is a toothless gear; the second heat insulation plate 374 is slidably arranged on one side of the second gear 373 in the vertical direction, and the second heat insulation plate 374 is provided with meshing teeth on the side close to the second gear 373, and the second heat insulation plate 374 is meshed with the second gear 373 through the meshing teeth.
[0051] Since the first heat insulation plate 341 is arranged on the rotating disk 34, long-term use will cause the temperature of the first heat insulation plate 341 to rise, so a second heat insulation plate 374 is arranged. The second heat insulation plate 374 is slidably arranged on one side of the second gear 373 along the vertical direction, and the vertical direction is perpendicular to the horizontal plane. When the heat transfer device 35 on the rotating disk 34 reaches one side of the Stirling generator 2, the second gear 373 will drive the second heat insulation plate 374 to lift up in advance. When the heat transfer device 35 completes heating of the Stirling generator 2, the second gear 373 rotates to the missing tooth position, and the second heat insulation plate 374 automatically descends. The second heat insulation plate 374 can effectively block the heat of the first heat insulation plate 341 and the rotating disk 34. At the same time, when the second heat insulation plate 374 rises, the second heat insulation plate 374 itself can also obtain effective heat dissipation.

It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention patent shall be subject to the attached claims.
