Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of marine renewable energy, and particularly relates to a multi-degree-of-freedom combined marine energy power generation device and a control method for self-adapting to sea conditions. BACKGROUND

[0002] The marine energy power generation device is a device for converting marine wave energy into electric energy, and is mainly applied to the development of renewable energy on the coast or at sea. The core principle is to drive air compression or mechanical transmission to generate electricity through wave motion. The structural design includes floating type, fixed type and modular device. For example, the C4 floating ball of Sweden drives the gear to generate electricity through up-down motion, the European sea snake device generates electricity by combining the floating cylinder and the hydraulic piston, and the Chinese "Huqing" pneumatic device uses a hydraulic system to adapt to wide frequency waves. Some patented devices collect wave energy in the transverse / longitudinal direction, combine modular arrangement to improve power generation efficiency, and are suitable for offshore platforms, fishing ports and island power supply.

[0003] The technical bottleneck of the current marine energy power generation device in application is poor stability of electric energy output under irregular wave conditions. Further analysis of the reasons: first, the sea condition adaptability is insufficient. The traditional device adopts fixed gear ratio design, which is difficult to balance low torque high efficiency transmission under calm sea conditions and overload protection under severe sea conditions, resulting in limited power generation efficiency under all sea conditions. Second, the multi-degree-of-freedom device structure is complex, and the reversing mechanism is low in efficiency. The commonly used planar gear set or ratchet pawl structure has poor adaptability to the space bidirectional swing of eccentric pendulum to unidirectional rotation, which is easy to produce mechanical loss and jamming. Third, the output stability is poor. Single electric control speed stabilization or inertia flywheel design is difficult to offset the speed change caused by random wave fluctuation, which makes it difficult to meet the continuous and stable demand of island power supply, marine monitoring and other scenes. Fourth, the single energy dependence is strong, and there is a lack of deep complementary mechanism with wind energy and solar energy. The power supply is interrupted on cloudy days or in the absence of wind. SUMMARY

Detailed Implementation

[0030] To facilitate understanding of the present invention, it will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. However, the present invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described in this specification. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of the disclosure of the present invention.

[0031] Example 1: As Figures 1-6 As shown, an adaptive sea state multi-degree-of-freedom combined marine energy power generation device is disclosed. The device includes a hemispherical floating shell 105, which is made of corrosion-resistant metal. An eccentric pendulum wave energy power generation system is installed inside the floating shell 105, and wind power generation and photovoltaic power generation are installed on the outside.

[0032] The eccentric pendulum wave energy power generation system comprises a horizontal eccentric pendulum 209, a reversing mechanism 208, a torque sensor 207, a self-adjusting gear ratio transmission mechanism, an inertial flywheel 205 and a generator 206. A horizontal lower base 201 is installed at the bottom of the floating body shell 105, a gear frame 202 is installed on the lower base 201, a driving shaft 203 and a driven shaft 204 are installed between the gear frame 202 and the lower base 201 in the vertical direction, and the inertial flywheel 205 and the generator 206 are installed on the gear frame 202 in the vertical direction.

The horizontal eccentric pendulum 209 is fixedly connected with the first straight bevel gear 301. When the horizontal eccentric pendulum 209 swings clockwise, the first one-way bearing is locked, the first straight bevel gear 301 is locked with the driving shaft 203, and the driving shaft 203 is driven to rotate clockwise; when the horizontal eccentric pendulum 209 swings counterclockwise, the first one-way bearing is not locked, the second straight bevel gear 302 is driven to rotate clockwise due to the transmission of the third straight bevel gear 303, the second one-way bearing is locked, the second straight bevel gear 302 is locked with the driving shaft 203, and the driving shaft 203 is still driven to rotate clockwise, so that the bidirectional motion of the horizontal eccentric pendulum 209 is converted into unidirectional rotation of the driving shaft 203.

[0034] The self-adjusting gear ratio transmission mechanism is provided with three sets of driving gears mounted on the driving shaft 203 and three sets of driven gears mounted on the driven shaft 204, the three sets of driving gears are respectively engaged with the three sets of driven gears, and the gear ratios are 0.513, 1 and 1.318 respectively, corresponding to calm, normal and severe sea conditions.

Specifically, the first driving gear 401, the second driving gear 402 and the third driving gear 403 are mounted on the driving shaft 203, and the first driven gear 404, the second driven gear 405 and the third driven gear 406 are mounted on the driven shaft 204, and the first driven gear 404, the second driven gear 405 and the third driven gear 406 are engaged with the first driving gear 401, the second driving gear 402 and the third driving gear 403.

[0035] The controllable latch device 407 is fixedly installed in the driving shaft 203 and comprises a rudder 501, a guide rail wheel 502, a latch 503 and a guide groove platform 504.

The rudder 501 is directly connected with the guide rail wheel 502, and the guide rail wheel 502 is installed on the output end of the rudder 501. The guide groove platform 504 is provided with a groove for mounting the latch 503, and the guide rail wheel 502 is provided with an arc-shaped guide groove 506 for guiding the latch 503 to extend into or exit the action. One end of the arc-shaped guide groove 506 is close to the center of the guide rail wheel 502, and the other end is away from the center. The latch 503 is provided with a key 505 at the tail end, and the key 505 is matched and installed with the arc-shaped guide groove 506. The rudder 501 drives the guide rail wheel 502 to rotate, and the key 505 at the tail end of the latch 503 is matched with the arc-shaped guide groove of the guide rail wheel 502, so as to control the latch 503 to extend into or exit the internal reserved groove 308 of the driving gear (401, 402, 403), thereby selecting different gear sets to engage. When the sea condition changes, the torque sensor 207 monitors the torque of the horizontal eccentric pendulum 209 in real time, the controller sends a command to control the corresponding rudder 501 to start, adjusts the position of the latch 503, and realizes the self-adaptive switching of the gear ratio.

[0038] The embodiment also discloses a control method, which comprises the following steps: (1) anchoring the device on the sea surface, the wave drives the floating body to pitch, the horizontal eccentric pendulum 209 drives the driving shaft 203 to swing bidirectionally, and the unidirectional rotation is converted through the reversing mechanism 208; (2) the torque of the horizontal eccentric pendulum 209 is detected in real time through the torque sensor 207, the controller selects the gear set (0.513 for calm sea conditions, 1 for normal conditions, and 1.318 for severe sea conditions) according to the preset threshold value, and drives the steering engine 501 to switch the position of the pin 503; the gear ratio of the working transmission gear set on the driving shaft 203 and the driven shaft 204 is automatically adjusted to change the resistance of the pendulum motion, so that the pendulum motion and the floating body motion reach resonance, the low-torque high-efficiency transmission under calm sea conditions and the overload protection under severe sea conditions are considered, and the wave energy under different sea conditions can be more effectively utilized, so as to improve the power generation efficiency under all sea conditions; (3) the driving shaft 203 drives the driven shaft 204 through the selected gear set, the inertial flywheel 205 absorbs the speed fluctuation to ensure that the generator 206 outputs stable electric energy; (4) the helical wind turbine 104 in the conical steel frame 103 generates electricity through the narrow tube effect, and the photovoltaic panel 101 converts light energy into electric energy, which is complementarily stored in the energy storage device with the wave energy.
