Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of gravity energy storage devices, and in particular to a suspension track type gravity energy storage device, system and method. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power, the power grid is increasingly demanding energy storage technologies. Gravity energy storage, as a mechanical energy storage method, offers advantages such as environmental friendliness, long lifespan, and low cost. Its basic principle is to convert electrical energy into gravitational potential energy by lifting a heavy object to a certain height. When needed, the weight is released, and the kinetic energy from its fall drives a generator, converting the gravitational potential energy back into electrical energy.

[0003] Existing cable-stayed track gravity energy storage systems consist of a track and a lifting mechanism. However, these tracks only feature a single steep slope, such as an ascending section with an inclination greater than 30°. They lack a buffer section or speed control mechanism. When a loaded trolley rapidly descends from a height, it can easily lose speed control, leading to dangers and even damage to the equipment.

[0004] In addition, the friction resistance between the load trolley and the track is high, especially in sections with large slopes, which causes severe mechanical wear and reduces system efficiency.

[0005] Therefore, we propose a suspension track gravity energy storage device, system and method to solve the problems in the above background. Summary of the Invention

[0035] The specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, but it should be understood that the protection scope of the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments.

[0036] Example 1:

[0037] See also Figure 1-6 , the present invention provides a technical solution:

[0038] A suspension rail type gravity energy storage device comprises a load trolley 1 and two parallel steel rails 2, wherein a rigid support structure is provided at the bottom of the steel rails 2 to keep the two steel rails 2 stable.

[0039] The load trolley 1 is loaded with a gravity energy storage block 4. The load trolley 1 with the gravity energy storage block 4 slides on the rail 2, and the load trolley 1 drives the gravity energy storage block 4 to rise and fall along the rail 2.

[0040] The rail 2 is provided with a low area 5, an ascending area 6 and an energy storage area 7 for adjusting the potential energy of the load-carrying trolley 1. The load-carrying trolley 1 of the gravity energy storage block 4 passes through the low area 5 into the ascending area 6 to gradually increase the potential energy, and enters the energy storage area 7 to complete the gravity energy storage.

[0041] The rising area 6 is an inclined rail section with a large slope, and a driving mechanism for pulling the load trolley 1 is provided on the rail 2; the driving mechanism drives the load trolley 1 carrying the gravity energy storage block 4 from the low area 5 through the rising area 6 and into the energy storage area 7 to realize gravity energy storage.

[0042] The low-level area 5 includes a buffer rail section 9 and an entry section 10. The buffer rail section 9 is lower than the entry section 10. One end of the buffer rail section 9 is smoothly connected to the bottom of the inclined rail section, and the other end is smoothly connected to the entry section 10.

[0043] The energy storage area 7 includes a stable rail section 11, a deceleration slope section 12 and an energy storage rail section 13 connected in sequence; the energy storage rail section 13 is located at the highest point and is arranged horizontally, and the stable rail section 11 is smoothly transitioned to the inclined rail section.

[0044] The buffer rail section 9 is lower than the entry section 10. When the load-carrying trolley 1 carrying the gravity energy storage block 4 descends from a height, it enters the buffer rail section 9. When it slides from the buffer rail section 9 to the entry section 10, the speed of the load-carrying trolley 1 is reduced to prevent it from directly rushing out of the entry section 10 to ensure safety. The deceleration slope section 12 decelerates the load-carrying trolley 1 after it accelerates through the inclined rail section and enters the stable rail section 11, so that it enters the energy storage rail section 13 smoothly. When potential energy and electric power are converted, the load-carrying trolley 1 enters the deceleration slope section 12 with a lower slope from the energy storage rail section 13 to perform initial acceleration to avoid directly entering the inclined rail section with a large slope, which may easily cause loss of control. This is beneficial for the device to gradually adapt to the load-carrying trolley 1 carrying the gravity energy storage block 4 and reduce damage to the device.

[0045] Example 2:

[0046] See also Figure 2-5 , and combined with Example 1, it is further obtained that the driving mechanism includes multiple groups of suspension cable traction components; the multiple groups of suspension cable traction components cooperate with corresponding sections of the rail 2, and are used for the rail 2 to pull and drive the load-carrying trolley 1 on different slope sections.

[0047] The entry section 10 , the buffer rail section 9 , the inclined rail section, the stable rail section 11 and the energy storage rail section 13 are all provided with suspension cable traction components.

[0048] The suspension cable traction assembly includes two traction wheels 15 and ropes 16 that cooperate with the traction wheels 15. A drive shaft 17 is installed inside the traction wheel 15, and a bidirectional energy conversion device 18 is installed at one end of the drive shaft 17.

[0049] In the above scheme, the drive mechanism utilizes multiple suspension cable traction assemblies that work in conjunction with various sections of the rail 2. Each suspension cable traction assembly comprises two traction sheaves 15 and associated ropes 16. The traction sheaves 15 are connected to a bidirectional energy conversion device 18 via an internal drive shaft 17. When the system is in operation, the bidirectional energy conversion device 18 rotates the drive shaft 17, causing the traction sheaves 15 to rotate. Slots 24, evenly spaced around the circumference of the traction sheaves 15, interact with the retaining plates 22 on the ropes 16. The rotating traction sheaves 15, through the slots 24, drive the retaining plates 22, thereby ensuring stable transmission of the ropes 16.

[0050] Furthermore, the rope 16 is evenly provided with a card plate 22, and an outwardly inclined ring hook 23 is provided on the outer side of the card plate 22. A card slot 24 is evenly provided on the circumference of the traction wheel 15. The card plate 22 cooperates with the card slot 24. The rotating traction wheel 15 drives the card plate 22 to move in a cycle, and the card plate 22 drives the rope 16 to be stably transmitted. Two groups of L-shaped hooks 25 are provided at the bottom of the load trolley 1. The L-shaped hooks 25 are inclined. The L-shaped hooks 25 at the bottom of the load trolley 1 can be slidably engaged with the ring hooks 23 of the card plate 22;

[0051] Two sets of L-shaped hooks 25 on the bottom of the trolley 1 are designed to be tilted, allowing them to slide and engage with the hooks 23 on the outside of the clips 22, ensuring a secure connection during traction. The clips 22, evenly spaced on the rope 16, cooperate with the slots 24 of the traction wheel 15 to form a transmission system. The outward-angled hooks 23 on the outside of the clips 22 cooperate with the L-shaped hooks 25 on the bottom of the trolley 1. When the traction wheel 15 rotates, the clips 22 are driven by the slots 24, and the clips 22, in turn, drive the L-shaped hooks 25 via the hooks 23, thereby pulling the trolley 1 on the rails 2. This connection method features automatic docking and detachment, adapting to varying slopes in different sections and ensuring a smooth and reliable traction process.

[0052] The supporting structure includes a base frame 19 and a support seat 20. The base frame 19 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rail 2, and the support seat 20 is arranged on the outside of the rail 2. A bearing seat 21 is installed on the support seat 20. Both ends of the drive shaft 17 are rotatably connected to the bearing seat 21 on the support seat 20. The bidirectional energy conversion device 18 is fixedly installed on the support seat 20, and the bidirectional energy conversion device 18 drives the drive shaft 17 to rotate.

[0053] In the above scheme, the support structure consists of a base frame 19 and a support base 20. The base frame 19 is directly fixed to the bottom of the rail 2, providing primary support. The support base 20 is located outside the rail 2. Bearing blocks 21 mounted on the support base 20 support both ends of the drive shaft 17, enabling smooth rotation. The bidirectional energy conversion device 18 is fixed to the support base 20 and drives the entire traction system by rotating the drive shaft 17. This arrangement ensures structural stability and facilitates maintenance and inspection.

[0054] During operation, the cable traction components coordinate according to the characteristics of different sections of the rail 2. Each section 10, buffer section 9, inclined section, stable section 11, and energy storage section 13 is equipped with a dedicated cable traction component, each adjusting the traction force and speed based on the functional requirements of its section. This segmented traction system precisely controls the operating state of the load trolley 1, ensuring safe and efficient energy storage and release.

[0055] Example 3:

[0056] See also Figure 6 , and combined with Example 1 and Example 2, it is further obtained that a lubrication assembly is provided on the rail 2, and the lubrication assembly includes an oil outlet pipe 27 and an oil return groove 28. A U-shaped groove 29 is provided on the rail 2, and the load trolley 1 moves inside the U-shaped groove 29 of the rail 2. The oil outlet pipe 27 is located outside the top of the U-shaped groove 29 and is connected to the interior. The oil return groove 28 is located at the bottom of the U-shaped groove 29 and is connected to the interior. The oil outlet pipe 27 releases lubricating oil, and the lubricating oil flows from top to bottom along the U-shaped groove 29 of the rail 2.

[0057] In the above scheme, the lubrication assembly injects lubricating oil into the top of the U-shaped groove 29 of the rail 2 through the oil outlet pipe 27. Under the influence of gravity, the lubricating oil naturally flows downward along the inner wall of the U-shaped groove 29, forming a uniform oil film covering the rail contact surface. As the trolley 1 moves within the U-shaped groove 29, the bottom portion of the trolley 1 in contact with the rail remains lubricated, effectively reducing frictional resistance. The lubricating oil that flows to the bottom of the U-shaped groove 29 is collected in the oil return tank 28 and, after filtration, can be recycled, achieving a closed-loop operation of the lubrication system.

[0058] The lubricating oil film can reduce the friction coefficient between the load trolley 1 and the track by more than 60%, significantly reducing mechanical wear; the flowing lubricating oil can remove metal debris and dust on the track surface, keeping the contact surface clean; the reduced friction resistance reduces the power consumption of the traction system, and the uniform oil film avoids overheating caused by local dry friction, thereby improving the stability of system operation.

[0059] A cable-track gravity energy storage system also includes a central control unit and a dynamic scheduling module. The central control unit is configured to receive real-time wind speed sensor data, a weight position RFID signal, and grid frequency fluctuation parameters. The dynamic scheduling module is in communication with the central control unit and, based on electricity price signals, activates the electric mode of the bidirectional energy conversion device 18 during off-peak hours to drive the load trolley 1 upward for energy storage.

[0060] During peak power periods, the load-carrying trolley 1 is released to slide down and the bidirectional energy conversion device 18 is switched to the power generation mode; the oil outlet pipe 27 of the track lubrication assembly intelligently adjusts the amount of lubricating oil according to the operating status of the load-carrying trolley 1.

[0061] A suspension track type gravity energy storage method comprises the following steps:

[0062] Step S1: In the energy storage stage, the control host detects the grid valley power signal and starts the permanent magnet synchronous motor in electric mode;

[0063] The traction wheel 15 pulls the load trolley 1 from the low area 5 through the rising area 6 to the energy storage area 7 through the rope 16; the load trolley 1 slows down through the deceleration slope section 12 and stops at the energy storage rail section 13;

[0064] Step S2: In the energy release phase, the control host responds to the peak power signal of the power grid and releases the load-carrying trolley 1;

[0065] The loaded trolley 1 slides down the deceleration slope section 12, passes through the ascending area 6 and enters the buffer rail section 9 to decelerate naturally. The permanent magnet synchronous motor switches to the power generation mode, converts the downward sliding energy into electrical energy output, realizes the graded recovery of kinetic energy, and completes the conversion of potential energy and electrical energy.

[0066] The above disclosures are only a few specific embodiments of the present invention. However, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto. Any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
