Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a power generation floor, and more particularly to a pressure-triggered power generation floor. Background Technology

[0002] Against the backdrop of societal demands for environmental protection, climate change response, resource conservation, and sustainable development, pressure-triggered power generation floors are an innovative energy harvesting technology that converts the mechanical energy generated by people's daily activities such as walking, running, or jumping into electrical energy.

[0003] Patent CN205141912U discloses a pressure-generating floor, comprising a base, a foot pedal, a fixing assembly, a mechanical power generation assembly, and an energy storage assembly. At least one spring is fixedly installed inside the base, with its upper end fixedly connected to the foot pedal. The mechanical power generation assembly includes a rack, a drive shaft, a drive gear, a slider, a transmission gear, and a generator. The upper end of the rack is fixedly connected to the foot pedal. The drive shaft is sequentially equipped with the drive gear, the slider, and the transmission gear. The drive gear meshes with the slider in one direction, and the other end of the slider is connected to the transmission gear. The lower end of the rack meshes with the drive gear through a sawtooth structure, and the transmission gear is connected to the generator. This patent proposes to use the pressure applied by stepping on the pedal to drive the generator to rotate through a mechanical power generation component, ensuring that the motor works in a stable state. However, there are still some problems when using this patent. When the rack and the gear get stuck, the rack cannot drive the pedal to slide upward and reset, resulting in a height difference between two adjacent pedals. When pedestrians walk between the two pedals, they are prone to tripping due to the height difference, which can easily cause safety hazards.

[0004] Therefore, a pressure-triggered power generation floor needs to be designed. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing patents where the rack and gear jams, causing the rack to be unable to drive the pedal to slide upward and reset, resulting in a height difference between adjacent pedals, pedestrians walking between the two pedals are prone to tripping due to the height difference, thus creating a safety hazard, this utility model provides a pressure-triggered power generation floor.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a pressure-triggered power generation floor, comprising a box, a cover plate, a water press, a micro hydroelectric generator, a one-way outlet valve, a three-way pipe, a water storage ball, and a one-way inlet valve. The cover plate is slidably mounted on the box, and a through hole is opened on one side of the box. The water press and the micro hydroelectric generator are installed at the bottom of the box. The input end of the micro hydroelectric generator is connected to the water press via a one-way outlet valve. The output end of the micro hydroelectric generator is connected to and communicates with a three-way pipe. One end of the three-way pipe is connected to and communicates with a water storage ball, and the other end of the three-way pipe is connected to and communicates with a one-way inlet valve. The other end of the one-way inlet valve is connected to the water press. It also includes a support plate, a mounting plate, a guide rod, and an elastic element. Multiple support plates are fixedly connected to the middle of the box, and a mounting plate corresponding to the number of support plates is fixedly connected to the upper part of the box. A guide rod is slidably mounted on the mounting plate, and an elastic element is connected between the cover plate and the mounting plate.

[0007] In one embodiment, the device further includes a baffle and a diaphragm. The baffle is mounted on the box body and has a circular hole. The water pump passes through the circular hole on the baffle and a diaphragm is connected between the edge of the circular hole on the baffle and the water pump.

[0008] In one embodiment, the device further includes a sponge pad, a point immersion sensor, a control module, and a buzzer alarm. The sponge pad is located at the bottom of the box, and the point immersion sensor is installed on one side of the inner wall of the box. The bottom of the point immersion sensor contacts the sponge pad. The control module and the buzzer alarm are installed on one side of the inner wall of the box. The signal output terminal of the point immersion sensor is electrically connected to the signal input terminal of the control module, and the signal output terminal of the control module is electrically connected to the signal input terminal of the buzzer alarm.

[0009] In one embodiment, it also includes an LED light strip and a trigger switch. Multiple LED light strips are embedded on the outside of the cover plate. A trigger switch is installed on one of the support plates. The trigger switch is electrically connected to the LED light strip. The guide rod slides down and contacts the trigger switch.

[0010] In one embodiment, the top of the cover plate has multiple anti-slip grooves.

[0011] In one embodiment, a rubber sleeve is also included, with the rubber sleeve embedded in the through hole.

[0012] The beneficial effects are: when pedestrians step on the cover plate, the liquid circulates through the water pump, one-way outlet valve, three-way pipe, water storage ball, one-way inlet valve, and micro hydroelectric generator, causing the turbine of the micro hydroelectric generator to rotate and generate electricity. Under the action of the guide rod, support plate, and elastic element, when the water pump loses its elasticity, the cover plate can remain level, preventing pedestrians from stepping on the cover plate and tripping due to uneven cover plate height, thereby reducing safety hazards.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Example 1: A pressure-triggered power generation floor, see reference Figures 1-6As shown, the device includes a housing 1, a cover 2, a water pump 3, a miniature hydroelectric generator 4, a one-way outlet valve 5, a three-way pipe 6, a water storage ball 7, and a one-way inlet valve 8. The cover 2 is slidably mounted on the housing 1. A through hole 101 is provided on one side of the housing 1, and a rubber sleeve 22 is embedded within the through hole 101. The rubber sleeve 22 fills the gap between the wire and the through hole 101, improving the sealing of the housing 1 and preventing water from entering. Multiple anti-slip grooves 21 are provided on the top of the cover 2 to prevent slipping when pedestrians step on it. The water pump 3 and the miniature hydroelectric generator 4 are bolted to the bottom of the housing 1. The water pump is made of highly elastic plastic, which is not easily aged or deformed. It is supported by springs and filled with liquid. The miniature hydroelectric generator... The motor 4 is a common 5V micro hydroelectric generator, which is technically reliable and low in cost. The input end of the micro hydroelectric generator 4 is connected to the water pump 3 by a one-way outlet valve 5. The output end of the micro hydroelectric generator 4 is connected to a three-way pipe 6. One end of the three-way pipe 6 is connected to a water storage ball 7, and the other end of the three-way pipe 6 is connected to a one-way inlet valve 8. The other end of the one-way inlet valve 8 is connected to the water pump 3. It also includes a support plate 9, a mounting plate 10, a guide rod 11, and an elastic element 12. Six support plates 9 are fixed in the middle of the box 1. Six mounting plates 10 are fixed in the upper part of the box 1. The guide rod 11 is slidably installed on the mounting plate 10. The cover plate 2 is connected to the mounting plate 10 by an elastic element 12, which is sleeved on the guide rod 11.

[0022] When using a pressure-triggered power generation floor, first, fit the box 1 and cover plate 2 together and lay them on the road surface. Connect the wire through the through hole 101 to the current output terminal of the micro hydroelectric generator 4. Then, fill the water pump 3 with liquid through the one-way inlet valve 8. The liquid composition is: water to alcohol equal to 85% to 15%. When a pedestrian steps on the cover plate 2, the cover plate 2 slides downwards, squeezing the water pump 3. As the cover plate 2 slides downwards, it drives the guide rod 11 to slide downwards until the support plate 9 holds the guide rod 11 against it. The cover plate 2 then compresses the elastic element 12, compressing the water pump 3. The liquid inside the water pump 3 is squeezed out and enters the micro hydroelectric generator 4 after passing through the one-way outlet valve 5. When the water flows through, it drives the turbine of the micro hydroelectric generator 4 to rotate, thereby generating electricity. The electricity is then conducted through the wires and stored externally. In the battery, after passing through the generator turbine, the water flows into the deflated water storage ball 7, which expands in volume to contain the water flow. When a pedestrian lifts their foot off the cover plate 2, the water pump 3 springs up, increasing the space. Simultaneously, water is drawn into the water storage ball 7 through the one-way inlet valve 8, filling the water pump 3 and emptying the water storage ball 7. At the same time, the elastic element 12 returns to its original shape, causing the cover plate 2 to slide upwards and reset. This round of power generation is completed the instant the pedestrian's foot is lifted off the ground, awaiting the next round of power generation from the pressure-triggered water flow circulation. Under the action of the guide rod 11, support plate 9, and elastic element 12, when the water pump 3 loses its elasticity, the cover plate 2 remains level, preventing pedestrians from stepping on the cover plate 2 and tripping due to uneven height, thus reducing safety hazards.

[0023] Example 2: Based on Example 1, refer to Figure 6 As shown, it also includes a baffle 13 and a diaphragm 14. The baffle 13 is installed on the box body 1. A round hole is opened on the baffle 13. The water pump 3 passes through the round hole on the baffle 13. A diaphragm 14 is connected between the edge of the round hole on the baffle 13 and the water pump 3. The diaphragm 14 is made of rubber and has good extensibility.

[0024] The baffle 13 blocks dust and impurities from coming from above the box 1, thereby preventing dust and impurities from falling into the working area of ​​the micro hydroelectric generator 4 and preventing the micro hydroelectric generator 4 from being unable to operate normally due to interference from dust and impurities. When the water pump 3 is compressed, the water pump 3 presses down on the diaphragm 14 and causes it to deform. When the water pump 3 returns to its original shape, the water pump 3 drives the diaphragm 14 to return to its original shape, thereby keeping the lower part of the box 1 sealed.

[0025] See Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, it also includes a sponge pad 15, a point immersion sensor 16, a control module 17, and a buzzer alarm 18. The sponge pad 15 is provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the box 1. The point immersion sensor 16 is installed on one side of the inner wall of the box 1, and the bottom of the point immersion sensor 16 contacts the sponge pad 15. The control module 17 and the buzzer alarm 18 are installed on one side of the inner wall of the box 1. The signal output terminal of the point immersion sensor 16 is electrically connected to the signal input terminal of the control module 17, and the signal output terminal of the control module 17 is electrically connected to the signal input terminal of the buzzer alarm 18.

[0026] When the water pump 3, the three-way pipe 6, and the water storage ball 7 rupture and leak, the liquid spills onto the sponge pad 15, making the sponge pad 15 wet. The point immersion sensor 16 detects the water on the sponge pad 15 and transmits the signal to the control module 17. The control module 17 controls the buzzer alarm 18 to sound, thereby reminding the staff to carry out timely inspection and maintenance.

[0027] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, it also includes LED light strips 19 and trigger switches 20. Six LED light strips 19 are embedded on the outside of the cover plate 2 for easy installation. Each LED light strip 19 emits a different color. A trigger switch 20 is installed on one of the support plates 9 by means of bolt connection. The trigger switch 20 is electrically connected to the LED light strips 19. The guide rod 11 slides down and contacts the trigger switch 20.

[0028] When a pedestrian steps on the cover plate 2, the cover plate 2 slides downward, causing the guide rod 11 to slide downward. The guide rod 11 slides downward and contacts the trigger switch 20, thereby activating the LED light strip 19 and making the LED light strip 19 emit light, thus improving the appearance of the cover plate 2.

Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made using the content of this utility model specification, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
