Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of energy collection devices, and relates to a preparation method of a flexible induction electromagnetic energy collection device, a product thereof, and an installation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the convergence of power grid and internet technologies, the level of intelligence and digitization in power grids has significantly improved. The uniquely intelligent nature of smart grids relies on real-time, rapid feedback on various grid operating parameters, which relies on the deployment of a large number of smart sensors with diverse electrical monitoring capabilities. However, in existing power system environments, such as outdoor overhead transmission lines and substations, it is difficult to directly obtain the low-voltage DC power required by smart sensors. Furthermore, existing offline power supply solutions such as solar and wind power suffer from stability and reliability issues. Therefore, power supply issues for smart sensors have become a key bottleneck limiting their large-scale deployment and application. Capturing the dissipated energy unique to power grid environments and converting it into electrical energy to power sensors is an effective solution to this problem. The AC current generates a power-frequency magnetic field near the various current-carrying conductors in the power grid. Coils placed within these magnetic fields induce an AC voltage. Combined with subsequent rectification, voltage regulation, and energy storage circuits, a stable low-voltage DC voltage can be generated to power the sensors.

[0003] Currently, the specific implementation of the above method typically involves placing an iron core over current-carrying lines, such as overhead transmission lines and electrical equipment grounding wires, and winding a coil around the core. This allows an AC voltage to be induced at both ends of the coil. However, the iron core is typically made of magnetic metal and is heavy, posing a risk when hoisted onto the line and compromising the mechanical strength of the line. While a non-through-the-wire alternative approach, placing an iron core and coil around these current-carrying lines, can avoid direct contact with the lines, the coil is located at a certain distance from the current-carrying line, causing the magnetic field to decay rapidly and resulting in only very low magnetic field energy.

[0004] Therefore, to address the above problems, it is necessary to prepare a fiber fabric with magnetism, flexibility, and elasticity so that it can be stretched tightly on the surface of the current-carrying circuit to form a flexible iron core that is close to the surface of the circuit, and to prepare a metal copper film on the fabric to form a coil, thereby forming a new type of inductive electromagnetic energy harvesting device, which ultimately has the significant advantages of easy installation, the strongest magnetic field close to the surface of the current-carrying conductor, light weight, and good adaptability to different circuit shapes and runs.
