Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of power generation, in particular to a damless hydropower station with a liftable turbine. Background Art
[0002] Hydropower is an important sustainable resource and will become even more important in the future. In the canyon rivers of northwest my country and western Sichuan, where water is plentiful and the natural environment is harsh, people use the potential energy of water to generate electricity. However, current generators cannot fully utilize this potential energy. The water's retention time in the tank is extremely short, and large amounts of water quickly flow away after impacting the turbine blades. This results in high water consumption for power generation, low energy conversion efficiency, and poor generator performance. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of this, in order to solve the problems existing in the technical background, the present invention proposes a damless and liftable turbine hydropower station. The specific technical solution is as follows:
[0004] A damless, liftable turbine hydropower station comprises cement columns, beams, water retaining plates, connecting rods, generator sets, and water wheel blades. The cement columns are arranged in the mountains on both sides of the waterway, and a beam is horizontally mounted above the two cement columns. Through holes are opened at both ends of the beam, and a connecting rod through hole is opened. A water retaining plate is arranged below the connecting rod, and one side of the water retaining plate is embedded in a groove opened on the side wall of the cement column. The water retaining plate is driven to move up and down in the groove as the connecting rod moves up and down in the through hole. A steel cylinder is arranged below the middle position of the beam, and a water wheel blade is arranged on the steel cylinder. A generator set is arranged above the steel cylinder, and the generator set is driven to generate electricity by the rotation of the blade.
[0005] Furthermore, a steel rope is provided in the middle of the water baffle, and the steel rope extends upward, passes through the slide provided on the beam, and is connected to the lifting chain to raise or lower the water baffle.
[0006] Furthermore, the steel cylinder is driven deep into the ground to support the water wheel blades inserted into the outside.
[0007] Furthermore, a V-shaped debris filter is provided below the water wheel blades for filtering debris.
[0008] The above technical solution has the following beneficial effects:
[0009] The utility model utilizes the potential energy impact of water, combined with water retaining plates, cement columns, beams, steel cylinders, generator sets, connecting rods, etc. to drive the water wheel blades to rotate, thereby driving the generator set to generate electricity. The water retaining plates provided on both sides of the corresponding water wheel blades in the utility model play a role in retaining water, avoiding the problem of rapid loss of a large amount of water after impacting the turbine blades. The height of the water retaining plates can be adjusted as needed. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0010] Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of a damless, liftable turbine hydropower station according to the present invention.
[0011] In the figure: 1-cement column; 2-crossbeam; 3-water retaining plate; 4-steel cylinder; 5-water wheel blade; 6-V-shaped debris filter; 7-steel rope; 8-generator set; 9-pulley; 10-connecting rod. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0012] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0013] See also Figure 1 The damless liftable turbine hydropower station shown includes a cement column 1, a crossbeam 2, a water retaining plate 3, a connecting rod 10, a generator set 8, and a water wheel blade 5. The cement column 1 is arranged in the mountains on both sides of the waterway. A crossbeam 2 is horizontally mounted above the two cement columns 1. Through holes are opened at both ends of the crossbeam 2. The connecting rod 10 has a through hole. A water retaining plate 3 is provided below the connecting rod 10. One side of the water retaining plate 3 is embedded in a groove opened on the side wall of the cement column 1. The water retaining plate 3 is driven to move up and down in the groove as the connecting rod 10 moves up and down in the through hole. A steel cylinder 4 is provided below the middle position of the crossbeam 2. Water wheel blade 5 is provided on the steel cylinder. A generator set 8 is provided above the steel cylinder. The generator set 8 is driven to generate electricity by the rotation of the blade.
[0014] A steel rope 7 is provided in the middle of the water baffle 3. The steel rope 7 extends upward, passes over the slide provided on the beam 2, and is connected to the lifting chain to lift or lower the water baffle 3. The steel cylinder 4 is driven deep into the ground to support the water wheel blade 5 inserted into the outside. A V-shaped debris filter 6 is provided under the water wheel blade 5 to filter debris.
[0015] The utility model mainly utilizes the potential energy of water to impact the water wheel blades, thereby driving the water wheel blades to rotate to generate electricity. The water flow impacts the water wheel blades 5 to rotate. The water wheel blades 5 convert the potential energy of water into mechanical energy through the middle rotating shaft. The rotating shaft drives the generator set 8 to work, and finally converts it into electrical energy to complete the power generation task.
[0016] This utility model is generally built in canyon rivers, such as in western Sichuan. When there is sufficient water, it can generate electricity directly. The height of the water wheel blades can be adjusted according to demand. Figure 1As shown, the height adjustment method for the water wheel blades is the same as the height adjustment and connection method of the water retaining plate 3. When the water flow is high, the water retaining blades can be raised and raised. When the water flow is low, the water retaining plates 3 on both sides can be lowered to increase the impact of the water flow. This utility model fully utilizes local water resources to generate electricity.
[0017] See also Figure 1 As shown, in the present invention, one end of the water retaining plate 3 is embedded in the groove of the cement column 1, and the other end is welded to a connecting rod 10. The connecting rod 10 is a hollow steel rod that passes through the hole in the crossbeam 2. After passing through the hole, the connecting rod 10 can be freely raised and lowered. There is a hole in the middle of the water retaining plate 3, which is connected to the lifting rope 7. The rope 7 is connected to the pulley 9 on the crossbeam 2 and works together with the lifting chain to lift or lower the water retaining plate 3.
[0018] In this embodiment, the cement column 1 is partially embedded in the mountain to stabilize the cross beam 2 and the water retaining plate. A circular steel column is driven deep into the ground to connect the cross beam 2 and control the water wheel blades 5 on the outside of the cross beam.
[0019] The utility model utilizes the potential energy impact of water, combined with the water retaining plate 3, cement column 1, beam 2, steel cylinder 4, generator set 8, connecting rod 10, etc. to drive the water wheel blade 5 to rotate, thereby driving the generator set 8 to generate electricity. The water retaining plates 3 provided on both sides of the corresponding water wheel blades in the utility model play a role in retaining water, avoiding the problem of rapid loss of a large amount of water after impacting the turbine blades. The water retaining plates 3 can be adjusted as needed.
