Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of underground gas storage chambers, and in particular to an underground gas storage chamber group and a compressed air energy storage system. Background Art

[0002] Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is a large-scale, long-term, and high-capacity energy storage technology. During periods of low electricity demand, a compressor converts electrical energy into air energy and stores it in the form of high-pressure air in the storage system. During peak electricity demand, the high-pressure air is released from the storage system and passed through an expander to generate electricity, converting the air energy into electricity. The CAES system stores this high-pressure air in the storage system, and the storage pressure is typically around 10 MPa, which falls within the medium-to-high pressure range. Existing gas storage systems are divided into above-ground and underground systems. Underground systems are particularly suitable for areas with underground excavation, such as underground rock formations.

[0003] Existing underground gas storage chambers are generally horizontally arranged cylindrical, with blind-end seals required at both ends. The gas storage capacity is limited, and the blind ends are easily damaged under long-term high pressure, making maintenance inconvenient. In addition, when gas enters and exits a single chamber through the air inlet and outlet pipes, pipeline leaks are prone to danger, making it difficult to repair the leaking pipeline in a timely manner. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an underground gas storage cavern group and a compressed air energy storage system to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology. The present invention has a novel structure. The cavern group composed of two groups of annular gas storage chambers can increase the gas storage capacity. Through the connection of the horizontal pipe and the vertical pipe, high-pressure gas can be delivered in or out from both ends of the annular gas storage chamber. The use of the two groups of gas storage chambers can be switched through the plug. Through the detection component on the top of the vertical pipe, when one group of pipelines leaks, it can be closed to suspend the gas delivery, and the other group can be fully opened to maintain the original gas inlet and outlet efficiency.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions: an underground gas storage cave group and a compressed air energy storage system, comprising a first annular gas storage chamber, a second annular gas storage chamber is provided in the inner circle of the first annular gas storage chamber, a transverse tube is fixed to the diameter of the first annular gas storage chamber and the second annular gas storage chamber, the two ends of the transverse tube are sealed, and the transverse tube is provided with connecting ports on both sides corresponding to the connection of the first annular gas storage chamber and the second annular gas storage chamber, the transverse tube is symmetrically fixed with a vertical tube at the center of the second annular gas storage chamber, the top and bottom of the vertical tube are sealed, and an inlet and outlet air pipe is installed inside the vertical tube, the top of the inlet and outlet air pipe passes through the vertical tube, and the inlet and outlet air pipes are provided at the top of the inlet and outlet air pipes. The bottom of the air pipe is arranged in a shape inside the horizontal pipe, and connecting components are arranged inside the two ends of the horizontal pipe. The connecting component includes a plug, and the plug is slidably inserted into the two ends of the horizontal pipe. Air inlets and outlets are opened on both sides of the middle of the plug, and the air inlets and outlets alternately correspond to the connection ports of the first annular air storage chamber and the second annular air storage chamber. A detection component is provided on the top of the vertical pipe, and the detection component includes a movable plate. A movable plate is slidably installed on the top of the vertical pipe, and the movable plate is slidably sleeved on the surface of the inlet and outlet air pipes. A sliding rod is slidably and sealed at the center of the plug, and one end of the sliding rod is fixedly connected to the outermost end of the horizontal pipe, and the movable plate is transmission-connected to the sliding rod.

[0006] Furthermore, the connecting component also includes a sealing ring, and the inlet and outlet air pipes are arranged at one end inside the horizontal pipe and are slidably plugged into one end of the plug. A sealing ring is provided at the position on the outside of the plug corresponding to the plug-in of the inlet and outlet air pipes, and the sealing ring is sealingly sleeved on the outer periphery of the inlet and outlet air pipes.

[0007] Furthermore, the plug is hollow inside, and a circular plate is rotatably installed inside the plug corresponding to the air inlet and outlet. Two arc plates are symmetrically fixed on the center of the circular plate, and the arc plates slide along the inner wall of the plug. The two arc plates respectively cover half of the area of the air inlet and outlet on both sides.

[0008] Furthermore, convex strips are fixed on both sides of the surface of the slide rod, the circular plate is slidably sleeved on the slide rod and the convex strips, and a sealing ring is provided on the back side of the circular plate corresponding to the position where the convex strips and the slide rod pass through.

[0009] Furthermore, two groups of winding seats are fixed inside the horizontal tube located between the two vertical rods. The two groups of winding seats are arranged up and down, and a pull rope is wound on the winding shaft of the winding seat. The two pull ropes are respectively fixedly connected to the plugs at both ends of the horizontal tube, and the other end of the plug is fixed with a first spring on the inner wall of the outermost end of the horizontal tube.

[0010] Furthermore, a driving motor is fixed on the inner wall of the horizontal tube at a position corresponding to the upper winding seat, and the output end of the driving motor is fixedly connected to the winding shaft of the upper winding seat. A first gear is rotatably installed on the other side of the two winding seats, and the two first gears are meshed and connected, and the first gear is fixedly connected to the winding shaft.

[0011] Furthermore, the detection component also includes a hanging rope, the top of the vertical pipe is fixed with a hanging rope, the bottom of the hanging rope is fixedly connected to the movable plate, and a second spring is fixed between the top of the movable plate and the top of the vertical pipe.

[0012] Furthermore, a second gear is fixed to one end of the sliding rod passing through the plug, and one side of the second gear is meshedly connected to a toothed plate, and the toothed plate slides along the inner wall of the vertical tube.

[0013] Furthermore, a connecting rod is fixed on the top of the tooth plate, and the connecting rod is fixed through the top of the movable plate. Transmission ropes are provided at the outer ends of the two vertical tubes, and both ends of the transmission ropes pass through the interior of the vertical tubes and are fixedly connected to the two connecting rods.

[0014] Furthermore, a pressure sensor is installed on the inner wall of the vertical pipe where the inlet and outlet air pipes pass through.

[0015] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0016] When the second gear is fully engaged, the second gear is engaged with the second gear, and the sliding rod is rotated, and the circular plate and the arc plate inside the corresponding plug are also rotated. The two arc plates are changed from half-blocking to fully blocking, blocking the air inlet and outlet and the connecting port, and no longer releasing or feeding gas. Because the two moving plates are connected by a transmission rope, the moving plate at the other end will drop. At the beginning, the two moving plates maintain balance, and the second spring is partially compressed. The descending moving plate drives the tooth plate to engage with the second gear, so that the arc plate inside the plug at this position turns in the opposite direction to the other group, presenting a fully open style, fully opening the air inlet and outlet and the connecting port, and transforming the original structure with both ends half-open into a structure with one end fully open and the other end closed, maintaining the overall gas delivery volume unchanged, and at the same time blocking the leaking part to prevent further leakage of high-pressure gas.

[0017] The present invention drives the winding shaft of the upper winding seat to rotate through the motor, and through the meshing connection of the two first gears, the winding seat at the lower end and the upper end reel in and out through the pull ropes in opposite directions, thereby synchronously driving the plugs at both ends of the horizontal pipe to move. The movement directions of the plugs are opposite, and the switching of the connecting ports of the first annular air storage chamber and the second annular air storage chamber can be completed at the same time. At the same time, when the winding seat unwinds, the position of the plug is reset by the first spring.

[0018] The present invention can move the plug between the first annular air storage chamber and the second annular air storage chamber by placing the air inlet and outlet of the plug in the middle position. At this time, both the connecting ports of the first annular air storage chamber and the second annular air storage chamber are blocked, and no gas is sent in or out. When the air inlet and outlet of the plug are moved to correspond to any one of the air storage chambers, the connection of the air storage chamber is realized separately. The length of the two ends of the plug can meet the requirement that when the air inlet and outlet are connected to the connecting ports of one group of air storage chambers, the connecting ports of the other group of air storage chambers are blocked.

[0019] When the pull rope drives the plug to move, the circular plate slides along the surface of the slide rod. Through the arrangement of the convex strips on the slide rod, the circular plate and the arc plate can still be driven to rotate by the rotation of the slide rod after the movement.

[0020] The two arc plates of the present invention respectively cover half of the area of the air inlet and outlet on both sides, and the end of the inlet and outlet pipes located inside the horizontal pipe is inserted into the plug. As shown in the figure, this is the state where the plug corresponds to the first annular air storage chamber. At this time, the plug still remains connected to the inlet and outlet pipes, and will not be separated from the inlet and outlet pipes during the process of switching the air storage chamber connection.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has a cavern group consisting of two groups of annular gas storage chambers, which can increase the gas storage capacity. Through the connection of the horizontal pipe and the vertical pipe, high-pressure gas can be delivered from or into the two ends of the annular gas storage chamber. The use of the two groups of gas storage chambers can be switched through the plug. Through the detection component on the top of the vertical pipe, when one group of pipelines leaks, it can be closed and the gas delivery can be suspended, and the other group can be fully opened to maintain the original gas inlet and outlet efficiency.

The top of the air inlet and outlet pipe 31 passes through the vertical pipe 3, and the bottom of the air inlet and outlet pipe 31 is L-shaped and arranged inside the horizontal pipe 2. A connecting component 4 is arranged inside both ends of the horizontal pipe 2. The connecting component 4 includes a plug 42. The plug 42 is slidably plugged into the two ends of the horizontal pipe 2. Inlet and outlet ports 41 are opened on both sides of the middle of the plug 42, and the inlet and outlet ports 41 are alternately connected to the first annular air storage chamber 1 and the second annular air storage chamber 11. The connection port 21 corresponds to the top of the vertical pipe 3. A detection assembly 5 is provided. The detection assembly 5 includes a movable plate 52. The top of the vertical pipe 3 is slidably mounted with a movable plate 52, and the movable plate 52 is slidably sleeved on the surface of the inlet and outlet pipes 31. The center of the plug 42 is slidably sealed with a slide rod 410, and one end of the slide rod 410 is fixedly connected to the outermost end of the horizontal pipe 2. The movable plate 52 is transmission-connected to the slide rod 410. When the device is used, the arrangement of the first annular air storage chamber 1 and the second annular air storage chamber 11 of the device is as follows: The arrangement is the same as that of the existing gas storage chambers. The outer ends of the inlet and outlet pipes 31 inside the vertical pipe 3 are connected to the compressor and the expander to form a complete compressed air energy storage system. When in use, the first annular gas storage chamber 1 and the second annular gas storage chamber 11 are switched through the connecting component 4 to discharge or intake air. The detection component 5 inside the vertical pipe 3 detects whether there is gas outflow, and the leaking part is sealed. No more gas is fed in or out, and the vertical pipe 3 on the other side takes in or releases gas to fill the entire annular gas storage chamber.

[0034] The outer ring 43 of the plug 42 is provided with a sealing ring 43, and the sealing ring 43 is sealed and sleeved on the outer periphery of the air inlet and outlet pipes 31. The plug 42 is hollow inside, and the plug 42 is rotatably mounted on the inner side of the air inlet and outlet pipes 31 corresponding to the air inlet and outlet ports 41. The two arc plates 49 are symmetrically fixed on the center of the circular plate 48, and the arc plates 49 slide along the inner wall of the plug 42. The two arc plates 49 respectively block half of the area of the air inlet and outlet ports 41 on both sides. The air inlet and outlet pipes 31 are located inside the cross pipe 2 and are inserted into the plug 42. As shown in the figure, the plug 42 is in a state corresponding to the first annular air storage chamber 1. At this time, the plug 42 still maintains the connection with the air inlet and outlet pipes 31, and will not be separated from the air inlet and outlet pipes 31 during the process of switching the air storage chamber connection.

[0035] In this embodiment, convex strips 411 are fixed on both sides of the surface of the slide rod 410, and the circular plate 48 is slidably sleeved on the slide rod 410 and the convex strips 411, and a sealing ring is provided on the back of the circular plate 48 corresponding to the position where the convex strips 411 and the slide rod 410 pass through. The horizontal tube 2 is located between the two vertical rods and is fixed with two groups of winding seats 45. The two groups of winding seats 45 are arranged up and down, and a pull rope 44 is wound on the winding shaft of the winding seat 45. The two pull ropes 44 are respectively connected to the horizontal tube 2. The plugs 42 at both ends of the tube 2 are fixedly connected, and the other end of the plug 42 is fixed to the inner wall of the outermost end of the transverse tube 2 with a first spring 415. The motor drives the winding shaft of the upper winding seat 45 to rotate, and the two first gears 46 are engaged and connected. The winding seat 45 at the lower end and the upper end rewind and unwind through the reverse pull rope 44, thereby synchronously driving the plugs 42 at both ends of the transverse tube 2 to move. The moving directions of the plugs 42 are opposite, and the first annular air storage chamber 1 and the second annular air storage chamber can be completed at the same time. When the connecting port 21 of the air chamber 11 is switched and the winding seat 45 is unwinding, the position of the plug 42 is reset by the first spring 415, and the air inlet and outlet 41 of the plug 42 is in the middle position, which can move it between the first annular air storage chamber 1 and the second annular air storage chamber 11. At this time, the two connecting ports 21 of the first annular air storage chamber 1 and the second annular air storage chamber 11 are blocked, and no gas is sent in or out. When the air inlet and outlet 41 of the plug 42 moves to correspond to any one of the air storage chambers, the connection of the air storage chamber is realized separately. The length of the two ends of the plug 42 can meet the need that when the air inlet and outlet 41 is docked with the connecting port 21 of one group of air storage chambers, the connecting port 21 of the other group of air storage chambers is blocked. When the pull rope 44 drives the plug 42 to move, the circular plate 48 slides along the surface of the slide rod 410. Through the setting of the convex strip 411 on the slide rod 410, after moving, the rotation of the slide rod 410 can still drive the rotation of the circular plate 48 and the arc plate 49.

[0036] In this embodiment, a driving motor 47 is fixed to the position of the upper winding seat 45 on the inner wall of the horizontal tube 2, and the output end of the driving motor 47 is fixedly connected to the winding shaft of the upper winding seat 45. A first gear 46 is rotatably installed on the other side of the two winding seats 45. The two first gears 46 are meshed and connected, and the first gear 46 is fixedly connected to the winding shaft. The detection component 5 also includes a hanging rope 53. A hanging rope 53 is fixed to the top of the vertical tube 3. The bottom of the hanging rope 53 is fixedly connected to the moving plate 52. A second spring 54 is fixed between the top of the moving plate 52 and the top of the vertical tube 3. One end of the slide rod 410 passing through the plug 42 is fixed with a first spring. There are two gears 412, and one side of the second gear 412 is meshed with a tooth plate 413, the tooth plate 413 slides along the inner wall of the vertical tube 3, a connecting rod 414 is fixed on the top of the tooth plate 413, and the connecting rod 414 is fixed through the top of the movable plate 52, and a transmission rope 51 is provided at the outer end of the two vertical tubes 3, and the two ends of the transmission rope 51 pass through the interior of the vertical tube 3 and are fixedly connected with the two connecting rods 414, and a pressure sensor 32 is installed on the inner wall of the inlet and outlet pipes 31 passing through the vertical tube 3. The detection basis for whether the inlet and outlet pipes 31 are leaking is mainly based on the value of the pressure sensor 32. In the initial stage, it is concluded through testing that the inlet and outlet pipes 31 in the two vertical tubes 3 have a value of 0. The pressure value when sending out or sending in gas. During the operation stage, when a set of pressure values changes, the pressure sensor 32 transmits a signal to the system terminal and issues an early warning. At the same time, when there is high-pressure gas leakage in the vertical pipe 3, the high pressure will push the movable plate 52 to move upward, compressing the second spring 54. At the same time, because the movable plate 52 moves upward at this position, it drives the connecting rod 414 and the tooth plate 413 to move upward, meshing with the corresponding second gear 412, driving the slide rod 410 to rotate, and the circular plate 48 and the arc plate 49 inside the corresponding plug 42 will also rotate. The two arc plates 49 change from the original semi-blocking to full blocking, blocking the inlet and outlet 41 and the connecting port 21. No more gas is released or fed in, because the two movable plates 52 are connected by the transmission rope 51, so the movable plate 52 at the other end will drop. At the beginning, the two movable plates 52 maintain balance, and the second spring 54 is partially compressed. The descending movable plate 52 drives the tooth plate 413 to engage with the second gear 412, so that the arc plate 49 inside the plug 42 at this position is opposite to the other set of directions, presenting a fully open style, and the air inlet and outlet 41 and the connecting port 21 are fully opened, from the original half-open structure at both ends to one end fully open and the other end closed, keeping the overall gas delivery volume unchanged, and at the same time sealing the leaking part to prevent further leakage of high-pressure gas.

[0037] When the device is in use, the arrangement of the first annular air storage chamber 1 and the second annular air storage chamber 11 of the device are the same as the arrangement of the existing air storage chamber. The outer ends of the inlet and outlet air pipes 31 inside the vertical pipe 3 are connected to the compressor and the expander to form a complete compressed air energy storage system. The motor drives the winding shaft of the upper winding seat 45 to rotate, and the two first gears 46 are engaged and connected. The winding seat 45 at the lower end and the upper end are wound and unwound through the reverse pull rope 44, thereby synchronously driving the plugs 42 at both ends of the horizontal pipe 2 to move. The moving directions of the plugs 42 are opposite, and the switching of the connecting ports 21 of the first annular air storage chamber 1 and the second annular air storage chamber 11 can be completed at the same time. At the same time, when the winding seat 45 is unwinding, the position of the plug 42 is reset by the first spring 415, and the plug The air inlet and outlet 41 of 42 is in the middle position, and it can be moved between the first annular air storage chamber 1 and the second annular air storage chamber 11. At this time, the two connecting ports 21 of the first annular air storage chamber 1 and the second annular air storage chamber 11 are blocked, and no gas is sent in or out. When the air inlet and outlet 41 of the plug 42 moves to correspond to any air storage chamber, the connection of the air storage chamber is realized separately. The length of both ends of the plug 42 can meet the requirement that when the air inlet and outlet 41 is docked with the connecting port 21 of one group of air storage chambers, the connecting port 21 of the other group of air storage chambers is blocked. When the pull rope 44 drives the plug 42 to move, the circular plate 48 slides along the surface of the slide rod 410. Through the setting of the convex strip 411 on the slide rod 410, after the movement, the circular plate 48 can still be driven by the rotation of the slide rod 410 8 and the rotation of the arc plate 49, the detection basis for whether the inlet and outlet pipes 31 are leaking is mainly based on the value of the pressure sensor 32. In the initial stage, the pressure value of the inlet and outlet pipes 31 in the two vertical pipes 3 when sending out or sending gas is obtained through testing. In the operation stage, when a set of pressure values changes, the pressure sensor 32 transmits a signal to the system terminal to issue an early warning. At the same time, when there is a leak of high-pressure gas in the vertical pipe 3, the high pressure will push the movable plate 52 to move upward and compress the second spring 54. At the same time, because the movable plate 52 moves upward at this position, it drives the connecting rod 414 and the tooth plate 413 to move upward, meshing with the corresponding second gear 412, driving the slide bar 410 to rotate, and the circular plate 48 and the arc plate 49 inside the corresponding plug 42 will also rotate. The arc plate 49 changes from the original semi-blocking to fully blocking, blocking the air inlet and outlet 41 and the connecting port 21, and no longer releasing or supplying gas. Because the two movable plates 52 are connected by the transmission rope 51, the movable plate 52 at the other end will drop. At the beginning, the two movable plates 52 maintain balance, and the second spring 54 is partially compressed. The descending movable plate 52 drives the tooth plate 413 to engage with the second gear 412, so that the arc plate 49 inside the plug 42 at this position is opposite to the other set of directions, presenting a fully open style, and the air inlet and outlet 41 and the connecting port 21 are fully opened, and the original structure with both ends half-open is transformed into a structure with one end fully open and the other end closed, keeping the overall gas delivery volume unchanged, and at the same time blocking the leaking part to prevent further leakage of high-pressure gas.
