However, solar energy is subject to significant environmental constraints, and its power generation capacity drops significantly on cloudy days and in indoor environments. Wind energy has the advantage of being fuel-free and pollution-free, and my country has abundant wind resources. However, wind power generation has high site selection requirements and is costly.

[0020] In the following description, numerous specific details are provided to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be practiced without one or more of these details. In other instances, certain technical features known in the art are not described to avoid confusion with the present invention.

On the contrary, providing these embodiments will make the disclosure thorough and complete and will fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.
[0022] In order to fully understand the present invention, a detailed structure will be provided in the following description to illustrate the technical solution proposed by the present invention. The optional embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. However, in addition to these detailed descriptions, the present invention may also have other implementation methods.
[0023] The following embodiments of the present invention are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.
[0024] Please refer to the following Figure 1 -Attached Figure 2 The present invention describes an uninterruptible power supply device based on piezoelectric power generation and a self-powered uninterruptible power supply system according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0025] Figure 1 It is a structural schematic diagram of an uninterruptible power supply device based on piezoelectric power generation according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, the uninterruptible power supply device 10 based on piezoelectric power generation includes: a plurality of piezoelectric power generation vibrators 101 and a vibration pickup mechanism 102.
[0027] The vibration pickup mechanism 102 is connected to the plurality of piezoelectric generator vibrators 101 and is used to connect to the vibration source 201 . The mechanism 102 is configured to transmit the vibration generated by the vibration source to the piezoelectric generator vibrators 101 .
[0028] The piezoelectric generator 101 is fixedly connected to the non-vibration source body 202 and is configured to convert the mechanical vibration energy generated by the vibration source body into electrical energy.
[0029] Preferably, the piezoelectric generator 101 can be a chip made of piezoelectric material and sandwiched between two electrodes. When the chip is subjected to mechanical vibration, it will generate electrical energy due to the piezoelectric effect.
[0030] As an example, the vibration pickup mechanism 102 transmits the vibrations generated by the vibration source to the piezoelectric generator 101 through its connection to the vibration source. Upon receiving the vibrations, the piezoelectric generator 101 converts the mechanical vibration energy into electrical energy due to the piezoelectric effect. This conversion process occurs within the piezoelectric chip, generating electrical energy through the deformation and recovery of the chip.
[0031] The piezoelectric-based uninterruptible power supply (UPS) 10 of the present invention utilizes multiple piezoelectric generators 101 and a vibration pickup mechanism 102 to promptly convert vibrations generated by a vibration source into electrical energy. Its structure is simple and easy to manufacture. Furthermore, the piezoelectric generators 101 are fixedly connected to a non-vibration source, improving electrical energy conversion efficiency.
[0032] In one embodiment of the present invention, the number of the piezoelectric generator oscillators 101 is two.
[0033] Specifically, the vibration pickup mechanism 102 includes a support member 1021 and a cantilever 1022 .
[0034] The first end of the support member is connected to the vibration source, and the second end of the support member is connected to the center of the cantilever; the two piezoelectric generating vibrators 101 are located on both sides of the cantilever, and the piezoelectric generating vibrators 101 on both sides are connected together in a topological structure.
[0035] As an example, two piezoelectric generators 101 are located on both sides of the cantilever and are distributed symmetrically.
[0036] It should be noted that the topology is a network structure with a specific connection method that can enhance the stability and energy transmission efficiency of the system.
[0037] The cross-sectional area of the first end is greater than the cross-sectional area of the second end.
[0038] In this embodiment, the second end of the support member is connected to the center of the cantilever, which can evenly distribute the vibration energy to the piezoelectric generators 101 on both sides. The symmetrical distribution of the two piezoelectric generators 101 ensures that when the cantilever is vibrated, the piezoelectric generators 101 on both sides can effectively receive the vibration energy.
[0039] In one embodiment of the present invention, the piezoelectric generator 101 includes a piezoelectric ceramic sheet, which is adhered to both sides of the cantilever.
[0040] It is worth mentioning that when subjected to external mechanical vibration, the piezoelectric ceramic piece will deform, thereby generating an electric field inside it, and then generating voltage and current.
[0041] As an example, to achieve high connection strength and uniform stress distribution, specialized adhesives or bonding techniques are used to ensure a tight fit between the piezoelectric ceramic sheet and the cantilever.
[0042] In this embodiment, since the piezoelectric ceramic piece has good temperature stability and high piezoelectric performance, the conversion efficiency of electric energy can be improved.
[0043] Based on the above-mentioned uninterruptible power supply device based on piezoelectric power generation, an embodiment of the present utility model proposes a self-powered uninterruptible power supply system.
[0044] like Figure 2 As shown, the self-powered uninterruptible power supply system 1 includes: the above-mentioned uninterruptible power supply device 10 based on piezoelectric power generation, a DC / DC filter circuit 20, a super energy storage circuit 30 and an energy storage charging circuit 40.
[0045] The DC / DC filter circuit 20 is electrically connected to the uninterruptible power supply device 10 based on piezoelectric power generation, and is configured to convert the AC voltage output by the uninterruptible power supply device 10 based on piezoelectric power generation into a stable DC voltage.
[0046] As an example, the DC / DC filter circuit 20 may include an input filter, a switching device, an energy storage element, and a first control subcircuit. The input filter can remove noise and interference from the AC power supply to ensure the purity of the input power. Through the periodic operation of the switching device, combined with the energy storage element and the first control subcircuit, it can achieve efficient conversion from AC to DC, thereby outputting a stable DC voltage.
[0047] The super tank circuit 30 is electrically connected to the DC / DC filter circuit 20 and is configured to store a stable DC voltage.
[0048] As an example, the super energy storage circuit 30 may include a super capacitor and a charging sub-circuit, receive the stable DC voltage output by the DC / DC filter circuit 20, charge the super capacitor through the charging sub-circuit, and store electrical energy.
[0049] The energy storage charging circuit 40 is electrically connected to the super energy storage circuit 30 and is configured to manage the electrical energy in the super energy storage circuit 30 .
[0050] As an example, the energy storage charging circuit 40 may include a discharge subcircuit and a first protection subcircuit. According to the load demand and system status, the discharge subcircuit is controlled to provide electrical energy to the load. At the same time, the protection subcircuit ensures that the system cuts off the power supply in time under abnormal circumstances to avoid damage.
[0051] The present invention's self-powered uninterruptible power supply system 1 integrates a piezoelectric-based uninterruptible power supply device 10, a DC / DC filter circuit 20, a super energy storage circuit 30, and an energy storage charging circuit 40. This system captures vibration energy from the environment, converts it into stable DC power, and effectively stores and manages it. This system is highly efficient, stable, and reliable.
[0052] In one embodiment of the present invention, the self-powered uninterruptible power supply system 1 also includes: a compensation protection circuit 50 connected between the uninterruptible power supply device 10 based on piezoelectric power generation and the DC / DC filter circuit 20, and is configured to compensate for poor characteristics in the circuit by adjusting and optimizing circuit parameters.
[0053] As an example, the compensation protection circuit 50 may include: a monitoring subcircuit, a comparison subcircuit, a second control circuit, and a second protection circuit. The monitoring subcircuit monitors circuit parameters in real time and converts these parameters into processable signals; the comparison subcircuit compares the monitored circuit parameters with preset reference values to determine whether adjustment is necessary; the second control subcircuit, based on the output signal of the comparison circuit, adjusts relevant circuit parameters to compensate for undesirable characteristics. The second control subcircuit typically includes a microprocessor, logic circuits, etc., to implement complex control algorithms and logical judgments; and the second protection subcircuit can cut off power in abnormal situations to protect circuit safety.
[0054] In this embodiment, the compensation protection circuit 50 compensates for poor characteristics by adjusting and optimizing circuit parameters, thereby protecting circuit safety and improving power quality.
[0055] In one embodiment of the present invention, the self-powered uninterruptible power supply system 1 further includes: a load output circuit 60 electrically connected to the energy storage charging circuit 40 and connected to the sensor, and configured to provide a stable DC voltage to the sensor.
[0056] Specifically, the self-powered uninterruptible power supply system 1 further includes: an energy storage battery 70 electrically connected to the energy storage charging circuit 40.
[0057] As an example, the energy storage battery 70 includes a lithium-ion battery, a lead-acid battery, etc.
[0058] In this embodiment, the load output circuit 60 converts the electrical energy from the energy storage charging circuit 40 into a stable DC voltage suitable for loads such as sensors. The load output circuit 60 and the energy storage battery 70 ensure that the power supply system can provide reliable power support to the load in various situations.
