[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of energy harvesting, in particular to a quasi-zero stiffness vibration isolation energy harvesting device based on dual-mode triboelectric nanogenerator. Background Art

[0002] Vibration refers to the reciprocating, undulating, repetitive, small or finite motion of an object passing through its equilibrium position. There are many types and forms of vibration, which are widespread in nature, engineering and daily life; in most cases, vibration is harmful, which will damage human production and bring many inconveniences and even great harms to life.

[0003] It is very necessary to take vibration isolation measures to reduce or eliminate the adverse effects of vibration; classified according to vibration frequency, vibration can be divided into low-frequency vibration less than 10Hz, medium-frequency vibration of 10-1000Hz and high-frequency vibration above 1000Hz. According to statistics, mechanical vibration is mainly medium-low frequency forced vibration; the stiffness characteristics of traditional linear vibration isolation technology limit the contradiction between vibration isolation frequency and load-bearing capacity, making it inapplicable to low-frequency vibration isolation; the quasi-zero stiffness vibration isolator is a non-linear vibration isolation system that uses the parallel connection of positive and negative stiffness to obtain high static stiffness and low dynamic stiffness; in the static equilibrium state, the system has a large static stiffness, providing good load-bearing capacity; when making small-amplitude vibrations near the static equilibrium position, the dynamic stiffness of the system approaches zero, achieving a lower vibration isolation starting frequency; therefore, the quasi-zero stiffness vibration isolator is a non-linear vibration isolation system with good low-frequency vibration isolation performance on the basis of ensuring load-bearing capacity; it is of great value to study vibration energy harvesting technology to convert harmful vibration energy into usable electrical energy; since almost all machinery and equipment generate vibration during operation, although the single-point energy generated by these vibrations is small, its energy input is stable and widely distributed. Compared with traditional environmental energy such as solar energy and wind energy, vibration energy has a higher power density; at present, vibration energy harvesting methods mainly include electromagnetic, electrostatic, piezoelectric and triboelectric nanogenerator forms, etc.

Detailed Embodiments

[0021] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 According to the present utility model, a quasi-zero stiffness vibration isolation and energy harvesting device based on dual-mode triboelectric nanogenerator is provided, which includes a quasi-zero stiffness module and a triboelectric nanogenerator module. The triboelectric nanogenerator module is embedded inside the quasi-zero stiffness module. The triboelectric nanogenerator module is composed of a contact-separation type triboelectric nanogenerator module 2 and a sliding type triboelectric nanogenerator module 3, and the ends of the contact-separation type triboelectric nanogenerator module 2 and the sliding type triboelectric nanogenerator module 3 are connected. The contact-separation type triboelectric nanogenerator module 2 is composed of a first electrode layer 201, a first friction layer 202, a second electrode layer 203 and a second friction layer 204, and the first friction layer 202 is in contact with the second friction layer 204. The sliding type triboelectric nanogenerator module 3 is composed of a third electrode layer 301, a third friction layer 302, a fourth electrode layer 303 and a fourth friction layer 304, and the third friction layer 302 is in contact with the fourth friction layer 304.

[0022] Furthermore, the quasi-zero stiffness module includes a bearing platform 1, a base 4, a cylindrical helical spring 5, a shim 6, a flat diaphragm spring fixture 7 and a flat diaphragm spring 8. The flat diaphragm spring fixture 7 is fixedly connected to the base 4 and is embedded inside the base 4. The flat diaphragm spring 8 is fixedly connected to the flat diaphragm spring fixture 7 and is embedded inside the flat diaphragm spring fixture 7. The shim 6 is embedded inside the base 4. The cylindrical helical spring 5 is embedded inside the base 4 and is located above the shim 6. The bearing platform 1 is embedded inside the base 4. The first electrode layer 201 and the third electrode layer 301 are respectively arranged on the outer surface wall of the bearing platform 1, and the first friction layer 202 and the third friction layer 302 are respectively arranged on one side of the corresponding first electrode layer 201 and the third electrode layer 301. The second electrode layer 203 and the fourth electrode layer 303 are respectively arranged inside the base 4, and the second friction layer 204 and the fourth friction layer 304 are respectively arranged on one side of the corresponding second electrode layer 203 and the fourth electrode layer 303.

[0023] Furthermore, the bearing platform 1 includes a table top 101, a table wall 102 and a support rod 103. The table wall 102 is fixedly connected to the table top 101 and is located below the table top 101. One end of the support rod 103 is fixedly connected to the table top 101 and is located below the table top 101. The other end of the support rod 103 is fixedly connected to the flat diaphragm spring 8.

[0024] Furthermore, the triboelectric series of the first friction layer and the second friction layer 204 are different, and the triboelectric series of the third friction layer 302 and the fourth friction layer 304 are different.

[0025] In this embodiment, the first electrode layer 201, the second electrode layer 203, the third electrode layer 301, and the fourth electrode layer 303 are made of copper electrodes. The first friction layer 202 is made of a polyimide film material, the second friction layer 204 is made of a polymethyl methacrylate film material, the third friction layer 302 is made of a polytetrafluoroethylene film material, and the fourth friction layer 304 is made of a nylon film material;

[0026] The implementation process of this embodiment is as Figures 4 to 6 shown;

[0027] The vibration-isolated object mg is placed on the carrier 1, the cylindrical helical spring 5 is compressed, and the support rod 103 moves downward, causing the flat diaphragm spring 8 to undergo a downward concave elastic deformation; the height-adjusting shim 6 is used to adjust the support rod 103 to move upward so that the flat diaphragm spring 8 remains in a horizontal state. At this time, the vibration-isolated object mg is completely supported by the cylindrical helical spring 5, and the system reaches the static equilibrium position x 0 ;

[0028] The system vibrates at the static equilibrium position x 0 to generate a vertical displacement. When a downward vertical displacement x 2 occurs, the support rod 103 moves downward, causing the flat diaphragm spring 8 to undergo a downward concave elastic deformation, and then it returns to the horizontal equilibrium state; when an upward vertical displacement x 1 occurs, the support rod 103 moves upward, causing the flat diaphragm spring 8 to undergo an upward convex elastic deformation, and then it returns to the horizontal equilibrium state. During the vibration process, the dynamic stiffness of the system is close to zero, achieving quasi-zero stiffness vibration isolation;

[0029] The distance between the polyimide film of the first friction layer 202 and the polymethyl methacrylate film of the second friction layer 204 is x 1 in the initial state. During the vibration process, they come into contact and separate. Due to the different electron gain and loss abilities of the two films, the polyimide film generates positive charges and the polymethyl methacrylate film generates negative charges. The potential difference generated in the first electrode layer 201 and the second electrode layer 203 can drive electrons to flow in the external circuit, thereby realizing contact-separation mode triboelectric nanogeneration;

[0030] The third friction layer 302, made of polytetrafluoroethylene film, and the fourth friction layer 304, made of nylon film, come into contact and slide during vibration. Since the electron gain and loss abilities of the two films are different, the nylon film generates positive charges and the polytetrafluoroethylene film generates negative charges. As the sliding progresses, the contact area between the two decreases. Due to electrostatic induction, the potential difference generated in the third electrode layer 301 and the fourth electrode layer 303 can drive electrons to flow in the external circuit, thus realizing sliding-mode triboelectric nanogeneration;

[0031] Finally, vibration energy harvesting is achieved through the contact-separation triboelectric nanogeneration module 2 and the sliding triboelectric nanogeneration module 3;

[0032] Quasi-zero stiffness vibration isolation is achieved by the parallel connection of the cylindrical helical spring 5 and the flat diaphragm spring 8. The structural design is simple and compact, with good stability and long service life. It has low-frequency vibration isolation performance on the basis of ensuring the load-bearing capacity; Based on the contact-separation triboelectric nanogeneration module 2, dual-mode triboelectric nanogeneration vibration energy harvesting is realized. The structure is simple, it has good adaptability to random low-frequency mechanical vibration energy, high energy conversion efficiency, good output performance, low cost, and is environmentally friendly; Combining the quasi-zero stiffness vibration isolator and the vibration energy harvesting technology achieves the dual goals of low-frequency vibration isolation and vibration energy capture, with strong adaptability, wide application range, and is conducive to the realization of energy conservation and emission reduction.

[0033] The above-disclosed is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Of course, it cannot be used to limit the scope of the rights of the present invention. Those of ordinary skill in the art can understand all or part of the processes of implementing the above embodiments, and the equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention still fall within the scope covered by the present invention.
