[0002] Closed / abandoned coal mines have rich water, heat and space resources, and can innovatively develop low-enthalpy geothermal resources and extend the economic life of the mine area, thereby reducing the negative impact on the environment and economy. During the process of geothermal water extraction, if the geothermal water is extracted for a long time without recharge, it may cause surface subsidence, so after the extracted geothermal water is used up, it needs to be recharged at a high proportion to ensure the stability of the underground water level and the geological safety.
[0003] During the process of geothermal water recharge, the water needs to be recharged to several hundred meters underground. During this process, due to the gravitational potential energy and the speed generated by the initial recharge flow, if direct recharge is performed, on the one hand, the potential energy is wasted, and on the other hand, the speed may cause damage to the surrounding rock, affecting the geological safety. Therefore, a closed mine geothermal water recharge depression storage device and method are urgently needed to solve the problem. SUMMARY

[0034] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0035] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0036] Reference Figures 1 to 5 This invention discloses a mine geothermal water reinjection and energy storage device, comprising:
[0037] Water turbine 3 is installed inside vertical shaft 1, and multiple turbines are installed along the height of vertical shaft 1 to convert the potential energy of reinjected water into electrical energy.
[0038] The buffer reversing device 4 is located directly below the liquid outlet at the bottom of the vertical shaft 1, inside the empty tunnel 2, and is used for buffering and guiding the reinjection water.
[0039] In use, water turbines 3 are installed at intervals along the height of shaft 1 inside shaft 1. The water turbines 3 are distributed on both sides of shaft 1. The water turbines 3 are driven by the reinjection water to generate electricity, while reducing the downward impact force of the water flow. In order to achieve sufficient hydraulic pressure to drive the water turbines 3, the hydroelectric power generation devices arranged at different intervals are spaced 50m-100m apart. The buffer reversing device 4 is set directly below the liquid outlet end of shaft 1. After the geothermal water flows out from the bottom of shaft 1, it impacts the buffer reversing device 4. The buffer reversing device 4 absorbs the remaining potential energy of the reinjection water and guides the reinjection water into the empty tunnel 2, dissipating the downward impact force of the water flow and changing the hydraulic flow to a horizontal direction, avoiding damage to the bottom rock layer of the empty tunnel 2 by hydraulic impact and preventing the bottom of the empty tunnel 2 from collapsing.
[0040] Further optimization of the scheme: the buffer reversing device 4 includes a concrete base 401, which is fixed in the empty runway 2 and is located directly below the liquid outlet end at the bottom of the vertical shaft 1.
[0041] A buffer plate 402 and a guide plate 408 are slidably installed on the concrete base 401;
[0042] The buffer plate 402 and the guide plate 408 are arranged vertically in space;
[0043] The buffer plate 402 and the guide plate 408 are hinged together by several hinge parts;
[0044] The hinged part is hinged to the movable end of the elastic support part, and the fixed end of the elastic support part is embedded in the concrete base 401.
[0045] The scheme is further optimized. The hinge part includes a second connecting rod 407. One end of the second connecting rod 407 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the buffer plate 402. The other end of the second connecting rod 407 is hinged to one end of the hinge shaft 413. The other end of the hinge shaft 413 is hinged to one end of the third connecting rod 409. The other end of the third connecting rod 409 is fixedly connected to one side of the guide plate 408.
[0046] The middle part of the hinge shaft 413 is hinged to the movable end of the elastic support.
[0047] In a further optimized design, the elastic support includes an elastic telescopic rod 410, the movable end of which is hinged to the middle of the hinge shaft 413, and the fixed end of which is embedded in the concrete base 401.
[0048] In a further optimized design, one end of a first connecting rod 405 is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the buffer plate 402, and the other end of the first connecting rod 405 is rotatably connected to a first pulley 404. The first pulley 404 is slidably mounted on a slide rail 403, and the slide rail 403 is fixedly connected to the concrete base 401.
[0049] In a further optimized design, one end of a fourth connecting rod 411 is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the guide plate 408, and the other end of the fourth connecting rod 411 is rotatably connected to a second pulley 412, which is slidably mounted on the slide rail 403.
[0050] During use, the reinjected water impacts the buffer plate 402. The impact force of the water flow causes the end of the buffer plate 402 away from the concrete base 401 to move downward. At this time, the elastic telescopic rod 410 retracts under the action of the second connecting rod 407. Simultaneously, the top of the guide plate 408 is pulled by the third connecting rod 409. At this time, the end of the buffer plate 402 near the concrete base 401 will tilt upward. It moves on the corresponding slide rail 403 through the first connecting rod 405 and the first pulley 404. At the same time, the bottom end of the guide plate 408 will also move away from the concrete base 401, making the buffer plate 402 tilted and the guide plate 408 closer to the horizontal state. As the impact force of the water flow changes, the elastic telescopic rod 410 dissipates this part of the energy. The water with dissipated impact force is guided into the empty tunnel 2 through the guide plate 408.
[0051] The design is further optimized by providing an impact groove 406 on the top of the buffer plate 402. The impact groove 406 is curved, and the high end of the impact groove 406 is located near the side of the concrete base 401.
[0052] Impact groove 406 is formed on buffer plate 402. Impact groove 406 is arc-shaped. The high end of impact groove 406 is set near the concrete base 401, so that the impact force of water flow can act on the end of buffer plate 402 away from concrete base 401. At the same time, the second connecting rod 407 is set at an angle, with its bottom end close to concrete base 401, so that the force acting on buffer plate 402 can more easily compress elastic telescopic rod 410.
[0053] A method for using a mine geothermal water reinjection and de-energizing energy storage device, based on the above-mentioned mine geothermal water reinjection and de-energizing energy storage device, includes the following steps:
[0054] S1. Water turbines 3 are installed at intervals along the height direction of vertical shaft 1 inside vertical shaft 1;
[0055] S2. Set the buffer reversing device 4 directly below the liquid outlet end of the vertical shaft 1, and fix the buffer reversing device 4 to the empty roadway 2;
[0056] S3. The geothermal water that has recovered its heat energy is reinjected through the vertical shaft 1. When the geothermal water falls, its gravitational potential energy is converted into electrical energy by the water turbine 3 and stored, and the falling potential energy of the geothermal water is consumed.
[0057] S4. After the geothermal water flows out from the bottom of the shaft 1, it impacts the buffer reversing device 4, which absorbs the remaining geothermal water potential energy and guides the geothermal water into the empty tunnel 2.
[0058] The working process of this invention is as follows:
[0059] As the reinjected water descends along the vertical shaft 1, its potential energy increases continuously. This energy is then used to generate electricity by impacting the water turbine 3, which in turn consumes the potential energy during the descent. When the reinjected water comes into contact with the buffer plate 402, the water flow presses down on the end of the buffer plate 402 away from the concrete base 401. Through the cooperation of the second connecting rod 407, the third connecting rod 409, and the hinge shaft 413, the elastic telescopic rod 410 is compressed, while the guide plate 408 is pulled to change its angle in the horizontal direction. At this time, the first connecting rod 405, the first pulley 404, the fourth connecting rod 411, and the second pulley 412 all slide within their corresponding slide rails 403. Due to the change in the impact force of the reinjected water flow, the elastic telescopic rod 410 is compressed to absorb the impact force of the water flow. When the reinjection stops, the elastic telescopic rod 410 is compressed to return to its initial length, allowing the buffer plate 402 and the guide plate 408 to return to their initial state.
