Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of anti-icing and ice-breaking technology, specifically relating to a rotating jet-type water disturbance anti-icing device. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid recovery and stable growth of the economy, electricity demand has increased dramatically, leading to increasingly tight power supplies and power rationing in many areas. Strengthening power supply capacity has become an urgent priority. Vigorously developing new clean energy sources is particularly important. Pumped storage hydroelectric power stations pump water to an upper reservoir for storage during periods of low electricity demand and release it to a lower reservoir for power generation during periods of high demand, thus playing a role in peak shaving and valley filling. This method has become indispensable in the power grid, and the demand for it is increasing daily.

[0003] In winter, the upper reservoir of pumped-storage hydroelectric power stations is prone to freezing. Currently, the impact of freezing is often mitigated by scheduling pumping and drainage, but a complete ice cover can still form on the upper reservoir, affecting normal power generation and project safety. The presence of the ice cover encroaches on a portion of the reservoir's overall capacity, affecting the power station's output power and causing power loss. The ice fragments and forces generated during the ice breaking process can damage gates and other facilities. To avoid or mitigate this situation, measures such as artificial ice breaking, limiting pumping and drainage, or even shutting down the system can lead to prolonged shutdowns of the upper reservoir, significantly increasing the power station's operating costs. The most effective way to solve these problems is to fundamentally prevent ice cover formation on the water surface.

[0004] In view of this, the inventors aim to design a disturbance-based anti-icing device that can prevent the formation of ice sheets on water surfaces. This device can be flexibly placed to accommodate different water surface conditions, achieving disturbance across the entire water surface range, and providing a reliable guarantee against water freezing in pumped-storage power stations in frigid regions during winter. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives and effects, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0007] The present invention provides a rotating jet type water disturbance anti-icing device, including a base, a horizontal rotating mechanism, a vertical motion component and a swirling jet disturbance device. The base is fixedly installed at the bottom of the water body, the horizontal rotating mechanism is fitted on the outside of the base, and the vertical motion component and the swirling jet disturbance device are installed on the side of the horizontal rotating mechanism or on the upper part of the base.

[0008] Furthermore, in the aforementioned rotating jet-type water disturbance anti-icing device, the horizontal rotation mechanism includes a first motor, a first gear, a second gear, a rotating frame, and a first rotating bearing. The first motor is fixed to the top plate of the base by bolts, and the output end of the first motor is connected to the first gear. The rotating frame is installed on the outside of the base through the first rotating bearing, and a second gear that meshes with the first gear is fixedly installed at the upper end of the rotating frame.

The second motor 201 is fixedly mounted on a vertical motion fixing frame on one side of the rotating frame 104. The output end of the second motor 201 is connected to the first drive shaft 202. The first drive shaft 202 and the second drive shaft 203 are arranged vertically and respectively... The first sprocket 204 and the second sprocket 205 are mounted on the vertical motion frame via the second bearing 206 and the third bearing 207, respectively, and are mounted on the outside of the first drive shaft 202 and the second drive shaft 203 via keyway engagement. The two are connected by the chain 208. The chain support plate 210 is fixedly mounted on the outside of the chain 208 by bolts and is connected to the track plate 209 via rollers 211. The track plate 209 is fixedly mounted on the side of the vertical motion frame. The first water level gauge 212 is fixed on the chain support plate 210 by bolts for monitoring the water level.

[0034] The second lifting mechanism includes a lifting platform 501, a lifting rod 502, a nut frame 503, and a second water level gauge 504. The lifting platform 501 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the base 4 by bolts.

The nut frame 503 is fixedly installed on the lifting rod 502, and the second water level gauge 504 is fixedly installed on the nut frame 503 by bolts to monitor the water level.

[0035] In this embodiment, the rotary spray disturbance device 3 includes a spray pipe 301, a self-rotating nozzle 302, a water pump mounting bracket 303, a water pump 304, a water supply pipe 305, and a water extraction pipe 306. The spray pipe 301 is fixedly mounted on the vertical motion component by bolts. The water pump mounting bracket 303 is welded to the rotating frame 104 or the base 4. The water pump 304 is bolted to the water pump mounting bracket 303. The water inlet of the water pump 304 is connected to the water extraction pipe 306. The water outlet of the water pump 304 is connected to the spray pipe 301 through the water supply pipe 305 for supplying water to the spray pipe 301.

[0036] In this embodiment, the self-rotating nozzle 302 includes an inner nozzle tube 3021 and an outer nozzle tube 3022. The inner nozzle tube 3021 has a hollow design, and its lower end is threaded onto the nozzle pipe 301. The upper end of the inner nozzle tube 3021 is designed with a water groove. The outer nozzle tube 3022 is fitted around the outer periphery of the inner nozzle tube 3021. A flow guide 3023 is installed on the inner side of the outer nozzle tube 3022. The flow guide 3023 has a spiral design that can rotate under the scouring action of the water flow, thereby changing the spray direction of the self-rotating nozzle 302 and increasing the disturbance area of ​​the self-rotating nozzle 302.

[0037] The specific application of this embodiment is as follows: Before use, the device is fixed at the bottom of the water body. Based on the detection results of the first water level gauge 212 and the second water level gauge 504, the second motor 201 is controlled to drive the first sprocket 204 to rotate through the first transmission shaft 202, which in turn drives the chain 208 to rotate. During the rotation of the chain 208, the chain support plate 210 moves up and down, thereby realizing the raising and lowering of the nozzle 301. After the nozzle 301 is raised and lowered to near the water surface, the water pump 304 is started to pump water into the nozzle 301. The water flows through the central channel of the inner tube of the self-rotating nozzle 302 and the upper water tank into the space between the inner tube 3021 and the outer tube 3022 of the nozzle. The spiral guide 3023 inside the outer tube 3022 of the nozzle rotates under the scouring action of the water flow, thereby changing the spray direction of the self-rotating nozzle 302 and increasing the disturbance area of ​​the self-rotating nozzle 302. Then, the first motor 101 drives the rotating frame 104 to rotate via gear transmission, which in turn drives the nozzle 301 to rotate, further increasing the turbulence area of ​​the water surface. The water surface moves continuously under the disturbance of the nozzle, preventing the formation of ice.

[0038] Optionally, the nozzle 301 can be raised or lowered to near the water surface using the elevator 501, and the water flow can be delivered into the nozzle 301 by the water pump 304, and then sprayed out through the self-rotating nozzle 302, thereby increasing the disturbance of the water body.
