[0023] When waves hit the wave energy collector, the whole structure tilts and the mass pendulum deflects due to gravity;

[0024] When the mass pendulum deflects, the cylindrical cam is driven to rotate through the connecting rod.

[0063]

[0064] Among them, x is a coefficient variable, which drives the piezoelectric sheet group Ⅰ8 and the piezoelectric sheet group Ⅱ7 on the driven piece set Ⅰ10 and the driven piece set Ⅱ9 to collide with the fixed collision tooth group Ⅰ13 and the fixed collision tooth group Ⅱ14, so that the piezoelectric sheet generates an alternating current.

Similarly, the energy collected by the electromagnetic unit is stored in the battery through the above-mentioned energy storage circuit. It should be noted that the induced electromotive force can be expressed by the following formula:

[0069]

[0070] Where: E is the induced electromotive force generated by cutting the magnetic flux lines, N is the number of coil turns, is the flux change, and Δt is the flux change time.

[0073] After the electric energy generated by the piezoelectric unit and the electromagnetic unit is rectified, filtered and stabilized, it is stored in the energy storage unit. When there is excess power supply, the energy storage unit can store electric energy; when there is a peak in power demand or a power outage, the electric energy is released to meet the demand, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the power system and improving the quality of power.

[0074] Corresponding to the above-mentioned symmetrical cam piezoelectric electromagnetic wave energy collector, the present invention also proposes a wave energy collection method. Since the method embodiment of the present invention corresponds to the above-mentioned device embodiment, the details not disclosed in the method embodiment can be referred to the above-mentioned device embodiment, and will not be repeated in the present invention.

[0075] The present invention provides a wave energy collection method, which is applied to the aforementioned symmetrical cam piezoelectric electromagnetic wave energy collector, comprising:

[0076] When waves hit the wave energy collector, the whole structure tilts and the mass pendulum deflects due to gravity;

[0077] When the mass pendulum deflects, the cylindrical cam is driven to rotate through the connecting rod. The two cam followers matched with the cylindrical cam convert the rotational motion into linear reciprocating motion, and drive the piezoelectric sheet groups installed on the follower sleeves to perform linear reciprocating motion. The movement directions and speeds of the two are opposite. When one cam follower moves to the highest point, the other cam follower just moves to the lowest point. During the movement of the cam follower, it will collide with the fixed collision tooth group, causing the piezoelectric sheet to undergo elastic deformation, triggering the positive piezoelectric effect and generating alternating current. The phase difference between the two alternating currents is 180°. The generated alternating current passes through the energy storage circuit and is converted into pulsating direct current through a full-wave rectifier. After passing through the filter capacitor and the zener diode, it is stabilized at the reverse breakdown voltage position of the zener diode and charged into the battery for storage, completing the wave energy collection of the piezoelectric unit.

[0078] The driven member sleeve transmits its own linear reciprocating motion to the crankshaft through its corresponding connecting rod. The phase angle of the two connecting rod journals of the crankshaft is 180°. When one of the connecting rod journals is at the highest position, the other connecting rod journal is just at the lowest position. The two connecting rod journals drive the crankshaft to perform fixed-axis rotation under the drive of their respective driven member sleeves. The NdFeB permanent magnet groups respectively installed on the two end forks of the crankshaft move relative to their corresponding coil windings, cutting the magnetic flux lines to generate alternating current. The alternating current passes through the energy storage circuit and stores the electrical energy in the battery, completing the wave energy collection of the electromagnetic unit;

[0079] The two cam followers are symmetrically arranged and move in opposite directions. When one cam follower moves upward, the other cam follower moves downward. The two cam followers impact each other to make the crank slider mechanism cross its own dead point, achieving unidirectional rotation of the crankshaft and improving the efficiency of electromagnetic energy collection.

[0080] The angle between the two sets of symmetrical mechanisms in the wave energy collector is 180°. The symmetrical mechanisms include a cam follower, a follower sleeve, a follower column and a fixed collision tooth group. Compared with a single set of structures, the two sets of symmetrical structures significantly improve the wave energy collection efficiency of the piezoelectric unit and the electromagnetic unit and the space utilization of the entire wave energy collector.

[0081] In practical applications, the device is mounted on a robot. As the robot works underwater, the device tilts, triggering the power generation device, and the robot can directly obtain energy from the waves, thereby achieving self-sufficiency. Therefore, the present invention greatly prolongs the robot's endurance and operating range, and its small size and efficient energy conversion reduce the robot's dependence on external energy, thereby reducing costs.

[0082] The above shows and describes the basic principles and main features of the present invention and the advantages of the present invention. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principles of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention may have various changes and improvements, which fall within the scope of the present invention to be protected. The scope of protection of the present invention is defined by the attached claims and their equivalents.
