Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of wave power generation and breakwater engineering, and in particular to a floating breakwater with coupled wave dissipation and power generation functions and a working method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Breakwaters are artificial underwater structures built to protect harbors or construction sites. Breakwaters are usually equipped with electrical facilities such as navigation lights, which are mostly powered by batteries, and some are powered by solar energy, wind energy and other energy sources. Among them, batteries have a short service life, and manual maintenance is labor-intensive and expensive; the power supply of solar energy, wind energy and other energy sources is highly dependent on weather factors and is unstable. The wave energy content at sea is large and all-weather, especially in the breakwaters. If the breakwater function and wave energy utilization are combined to achieve wave reduction while generating wave energy, and power the power facilities on the breakwater and even on the shore, it will be a beneficial development direction.
[0003] Floating breakwaters are breakwaters composed of floating bodies and mooring systems. They can be permanent or temporary buildings, and have the advantages of being movable, reusable and low in cost. Floating breakwaters can be divided into rigid breakwaters and flexible breakwaters based on their deformability. Rigid breakwaters generally have a large motion response, and their wave-breaking and mooring performance are easily affected; flexible breakwaters have small mooring forces and are less expensive, but their wave-breaking performance needs to be improved. Currently, floating breakwaters with power generation functions include both rigid breakwaters and flexible breakwaters, but overall, they still have problems such as complex structures, components that are susceptible to corrosion and damage, the inability to effectively combine wave energy reduction and wave energy generation functions, and general wave-breaking effects or low wave energy utilization rates.

[0015] A working method for the floating breakwater with coupled wave dissipation and power generation functions according to the present invention comprises the following steps:
[0016] 1) When the wave acts on the floating breakwater unit in a positive direction, the protruding airbag will be squeezed first, so that the air enclosed between the partition plate 1 and the two airbags will flow and transfer, and flow to the sunken airbag through the ventilation pipe, so that the sunken airbag expands, and the protruding airbag contracts, driving the mover 3 to telescope in the stator 3, and the telescopic movement of the mover 3 cuts the magnetic field lines to generate electricity;
[0017] 2) When the wave acts laterally on the floating breakwater unit, the connection position between the two airbags and the mover three will be offset, thereby driving the mover three and the stator three to reciprocate along the arc opening direction. When the stator three rotates, the mover one and the mover two are driven to rotate synchronously. At this time, the mover three telescopes to cut the magnetic lines to generate electricity, and at the same time, the mover one and the mover two also reciprocate to cut the magnetic lines to generate electricity;
[0018] 3) When the air enclosed by the partition and the airbag flows, the air flows back and forth in the ventilation duct, and the air drives the one-way fan to rotate, and finally drives the wind turbine to generate electricity.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0020] 1. Effective combination of wave dissipation and power generation functions, diverse power generation methods, high wave energy conversion rate and wave energy utilization rate. Waves act on the wave-facing surface of the floating breakwater, pushing the flexible airbag to deform and do work. Through the integrated design of the internal structure of the breakwater, the wave energy can be simultaneously converted into the mechanical energy of mover 1, mover 2, mover 3 and the fan, achieving a better wave dissipation effect while also realizing full utilization of wave energy.
[0021] 2. The present invention is a semi-rigid embankment, which mainly eliminates waves by means of wave energy conversion, while the traditional rigid box-type floating embankment mainly eliminates waves by means of reflection in front of the embankment and friction loss with the top surface of the embankment. In comparison, the motion response of the present invention is smaller, and under the same wave elimination effect, the present invention can effectively reduce the size of the breakwater along the wave propagation direction, that is, the width B of the box body, saving construction materials and costs.
[0022] 3. The connection system between units is flexible and convenient to install and unload. While playing the role of connection, it can also avoid collision damage and interference between units, which is conducive to giving full play to the wave-breaking performance and power generation efficiency of each unit.
[0023] 4. The power generation components of the present invention are all inside the breakwater, and there are fewer components in direct contact with seawater, which reduces seawater corrosion damage and has high reliability. In addition, the present invention is a unit assembly structure, which is easy to install and maintain and has strong practicality.
[0024] Advantages and features of the present invention will be illustrated and explained by the following non-limiting description of preferred embodiments thereof, which are given by way of example only with reference to the accompanying drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0037] The floating breakwater unit 1 also includes a mover 1 6, a mover 2 7, a mover 3 8, a stator 1 9, a stator 2 10, a stator 3 11, a damping plate 1 12, a damping plate 2 13, a damping plate 3 14, a damping plate 4 15, a permanent magnet 1 16, a permanent magnet 2 17, a permanent magnet 3 18, a partition 1 19, a partition 2 20, a partition 3 21, an arc slit 22, a ventilation duct 23, a one-way fan 24, a wind turbine 25, a bracket 26 and an end cover 27 arranged inside the box 4. The stator 3 11 is semicircular in shape as a whole and is located in the same horizontal plane as the line connecting the centers of the two airbags 5. The center of the stator 3 11 faces the airbag 5. The stator 3 11 can be rotatably connected to the box 4 alone, or the mover 1 6 and the mover 2 7 can be rotatably connected to the box 4 as supporting members. The mover 1 6 and the mover 2 7 are straight and collinear as a whole, and are at the same height as the center of the airbag 5. The mover 1 6 and the mover 2 7 are perpendicular to the line connecting the centers of the two airbags 5, and the extension line passes through the midpoint of the line connecting the centers of the airbags 5. One end of the mover 1 6 is rotatably connected to the damping plate 1 12, and the other end is fixedly connected to the small-diameter outer wall of the stator 3 11; one end of the mover 2 7 is rotatably connected to the damping plate 2 13, and the other end is fixedly connected to the large-diameter outer wall of the stator 3 11; the mover 1 6 and the mover 2 7 can rotate with the stator 3 11. The damping plate 1 12 is fixed on the partition 2 20, and the damping plate 2 13 is fixed on the side of the box 4 away from the airbag 5. The partition 2 20 is arranged inside the box 4, and the partition 2 20 is parallel to the side where the box 4 and the airbag 5 are connected, and the partition 2 20 does not contact the stator 3 11. The permanent magnet 16 and the permanent magnet 2 17 are respectively sleeved on the mover 1 6 and the mover 2 7, and damping plates are provided at both ends of the permanent magnet 16 and the permanent magnet 2 17 to prevent short circuit. Stator 1 9 and stator 2 10 are respectively provided on the outside of the mover 1 6 and the mover 2 7, and one end of the stator 1 9 is fixed on the partition 2 20, and the other end extends to the stator 3 11, but does not contact the stator 3 11; one end of the stator 2 10 is fixed on the side of the box 4 away from the airbag 5, and the other end extends to the stator 3 11, but does not contact the stator 3 11, and the stator 1 9 and the stator 2 10 cannot affect the rotation of the stator 3 11. End covers 27 are provided at both ends of the stator 3 11, and the end covers 27 do not contact the partition 2 20. The mover 3 8 is arranged inside the stator 3 11 . The mover 3 8 is linear as a whole, and its two ends extend through the end cover 27 to be connected to the surfaces of the two airbags 5 respectively. A damping plate 3 14 is arranged between the mover 3 8 and the airbag 5 .
[0038] A permanent magnet three 18 is arranged on the mover three 8 at a position inside the stator three 11, and damping plates four 15 are arranged at both ends of the permanent magnet three 18. The damping plates four 15 are fixed on the mover three 8, and the permanent magnet three 18 and the damping plates four 15 move in the stator three 11 together with the mover three 8. A partition one 19 and a partition three 21 are also arranged in the box body 4. The partition one 19 is parallel to the partition two 20, and is arranged between the partition two 20 and the airbag 5, close to the maximum depression of the airbag 5 into the box body 4, and has no contact with the airbag 5. In order to enable the mover three 8 to drive the stator three 11 to rotate in an arc, arc slits 22 are opened on the partition one 19 and the partition two 20. The arc slits 22 on the partition 19 and the partition 2 20 are centered on the axis of the mover 1 6, and the length of the line connecting the center and the corresponding position of the mover 3 8 on the partition 19 and the length of the line connecting the center and the corresponding position of the mover 3 8 on the partition 2 20 are the radius. The partition 3 21 is perpendicular to the partition 19, and is arranged between the partition 19 and the side of the box 4 close to the airbag 5, and is used to separate the air between the two airbags 5. The partition 19 plays a sealing and fixing role. The two ends of the ventilation duct 23 are respectively connected to the partition 19 on both sides of the partition 3 21, and a ventilation hole is provided at the connection position between the partition 19 and the ventilation duct 23. The air between the partition 19 and the airbag 5 does not leak out, and only flows in the ventilation duct 23. A one-way fan 24 is arranged in the middle of the ventilation duct 23. The wind generator 25 can be arranged on the partition 1 19 or the partition 2 20 and connected to the one-way fan 24. The rotation of the one-way fan 24 will drive the wind generator 25 to generate electricity. The total amount of air enclosed between the partition 1 19 and the airbag 5 is equal to the amount of air stored in the enclosed space when one of the airbags 5 protrudes and the other airbag 5 is recessed into the box body 4 to the maximum (full arc) state. The partition 20 mainly plays a supporting role. The ventilation duct 23 is supported on the partition 20 by the bracket 26.
[0039] The stator 1 9 , the stator 2 10 and the stator 3 11 are all provided with coils, which is the prior art and will not be described in detail in the present invention.
[0040] The mover 3 8 is always in a tensioned state, with a length of (1+π / 2)xΦ+2x (the distance between the partition 19 and the partition 2 20), and is made of non-elastic, high-strength material. At the same time, it should be easy to move in the semicircular ring structure, and can be a chemical fiber rope or a steel wire rope.
[0041] Two semicircular guide rails 28 are arranged inside the stator 3 11. The guide rails 28 are located on both sides of the mover 3 8, and support the damping plate 4 15 while facilitating the smooth movement of the damping plate 4 15.
[0042] The damping plate four 15 is located at both ends of the permanent magnet three 18, and the maximum distance between the two damping plates four 15 is (π / 2-1)xΦ, that is, when the airbag 5 on one side protrudes in a full arc, the damping plate four 15 and the permanent magnet three 18 are located at one end of the stator three 11 on that side, and when the airbag 5 on that side is recessed in a full arc, the damping plate four 15 and the permanent magnet three 18 are located at the other end of the stator three 11, so as to make full use of kinetic energy.
[0043] The ventilation duct 23 may be multiple, arranged symmetrically along the line connecting the centers of the two airbags 5, with ventilation duct holes 31 at both ends of the ventilation duct 23, which may be square, and are arranged inside the arc slit 22 and within the range of the damping plate 3 14, so that the driving force generated when the gas flows is concentrated on the airbag 5, which is convenient for the telescopic movement of the mover 3 8, and can avoid interference with the rotational movement of the mover 3 8 while fully utilizing the gas kinetic energy. The cross-section of the ventilation duct 23 may be square, and the sum of the cross-sectional areas S of the multiple ventilation ducts 23 must meet the requirement that when the full arc protruding airbag 5 undergoes maximum deformation at the maximum water flow velocity V (when acting in the forward direction), the gas flow is unobstructed, that is, S≥the maximum deformation volume of the airbag 5 at the maximum water flow velocity / V.
[0044] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 6 As shown, there are two arc slits 22 on the same partition, which are arranged symmetrically. The arc of a single arc slit 22 is less than 1 / 3 of the circumference, that is, πΦ / 3, which can be determined according to the actual rotation situation. The arc slit 22 on the partition 2 20 can be enlarged so that the mover 3 8 does not come into contact with the partition 2 20 during movement, so as to reduce the movement resistance of the mover 3 8. The arc slit 22 on the partition 1 19 must be sealed, and a sealing strip 29 and an elastic support member 30 are sequentially arranged around the arc slit 22. The elastic support member 30 has a certain elastic force, so that the sealing strip 29 is pressed tightly on the surface of the mover 3 8, and can also be pressed tightly at the gap of the arc slit 22 outside the mover 3 8. When the mover 3 8 slides within the range of the arc slit 22 on the partition 1 19, the total amount of air enclosed between the partition 1 19 and the airbag 5 will not change. In order to facilitate sliding movement, the sealing strip 29 and the elastic support member 30 need to have low sliding resistance.
[0045] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the one-way fan 24 can be coaxial with the wind generator 25, or can be connected to the wind generator 25 through a transmission device such as a speed increasing gear, and the number of the one-way fan 24 is the same as that of the wind generator 25. The blades of the one-way fan 24 are semicircular, and the reciprocating airflow in the ventilation duct 23 drives the fan blades to rotate in one direction.
[0046] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the connection system 2 is composed of a unit connection block 32, a central axis connection block 33, a cable chain 34, a unit protection pad 35, a central axis 36 and a bolt 37. The unit protection pad 35 is arranged in the middle of the vertical side plate on the side where the box body 4 is connected to the airbag 5. The unit connection block 32 is arranged around the unit protection pad 35, and the central axis connection block 33 is a hollow cylinder. The unit connection block 32 and the central axis connection block 33 are both provided with connection holes 38. The number of the connection holes 38 on the unit connection block 32 is the same as that on the central axis connection block 33, and they are connected by the cable chain 34. Two central axis connection blocks 33 are sleeved on the central axis 36, and the two central axis connection blocks 33 can rotate around the central axis 36 respectively. The two ends of the central axis 36 are blocked by bolts 37. The length of the cable chain 34 should ensure that the point where the central axis connection block 33, the central axis 36 and the bolt 37 act on the box body 4 falls within the range of the unit protection pad 35. The unit protection pad 35 is circular on the side plate of the box body 4, and the center part of the circle is appropriately convex. It can be made of rubber material and has a certain elasticity to prevent the box body 4 from being damaged by collision.
[0047] like Figure 4 As shown, the mooring system 3 includes four anchor chains 39 and four anchor blocks 40. The anchor chains 39 are respectively arranged at the four corners of the bottom plate of the box body 4. One end of each anchor chain 39 is connected to a corner of the bottom plate of the box body 4, and the other end is connected to the corresponding anchor block 40.
[0048] A working method of a floating breakwater with coupled wave dissipation and power generation functions is as follows:
[0049] Several of the floating breakwater units 1 are connected by a connection system 2 to form an integral floating breakwater. Under the connection system 2, there is less interference between the floating breakwater units 1, that is, the swing of one floating breakwater unit 1 under the action of waves will basically not affect the protection of the adjacent floating breakwater units 1 against waves. The towing force between the floating breakwater units 1 is small, and each independent unit can exert the maximum wave protection and power generation efficiency. When the wave acts on the floating breakwater unit 1 in a positive direction, the protruding airbag 5 will be squeezed first, so that the air enclosed between the partition 19 and the two airbags 5 will flow and transfer, and flow to the recessed airbag 5 through the ventilation pipe 23, the recessed airbag 5 will expand, and the protruding airbag 5 will shrink at the same time, which will drive the mover 3 8 to telescopic movement in the stator 3 11. Due to the randomness of waves, the waves will not only act forward, but also act laterally on the breakwater. When acting laterally, the positions where the two airbags 5 are connected to the mover three 8 will be offset, thereby driving the mover three 8 and the stator three 11 to rotate along the direction of the arc slit 22. Since the mover three 8 is always in a taut state and continues to have telescopic movement, the offset rotation amount of the position where the airbag 5 is connected to the mover three 8 will not be too large and has an automatic rebound function, that is, when the waves act laterally, the position where the airbag 5 is connected to the mover three 8 is offset and rotated. After the waves act, the position where the airbag 5 is connected to the mover three 8 will quickly and automatically return to the center position, so that the mover three 8 and the stator three 11 and the connected mover one 6 and mover two 7 can synchronously reciprocate.
[0050] The floating breakwater unit 1 has three power generation modes, including wind power generation by rotating the fan in the ventilation duct 23, power generation by cutting the magnetic lines of force through the telescopic movement of the mover three 8, and power generation by cutting the magnetic lines of force through the reciprocating rotation of the mover one 6 and the mover two 7.
