Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of elevator energy-saving technology, specifically to an elevator energy-saving energy storage device. Background Technology

[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization and the increasing number of high-rise buildings, the energy consumption of elevators, as an important vertical transportation tool, has attracted widespread attention. According to the operating principle of elevators, when the elevator car descends empty or lightly loaded, the counterweight drives the car, thus generating electricity. When the number of passengers reaches about half of the rated counterweight, the combined action of the passengers and the car drives the counterweight, also generating electricity. The electrical energy generated during this process needs to be processed promptly, otherwise it will cause serious damage to the motor.

[0003] Currently, in order to avoid the electrical energy generated by the motor in the generator state affecting the motor's performance, most elevators on the market use braking resistors for energy-consuming braking, so as to burn the generated energy of the elevator. This not only wastes electrical energy, but also requires the addition of an expensive heat exchange or heat dissipation device to the elevator-related equipment to ensure that the temperature in the machine room is maintained below a certain threshold, which increases the operating cost of the elevator. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides an elevator energy-saving storage device, which can effectively achieve energy conservation in elevators, avoid energy waste, and reduce elevator operating costs.

[0005] This utility model adopts the following technical solution: an elevator energy-saving energy storage device, including a housing, in which a bidirectional DC / DC converter and a supercapacitor module are installed and interconnected. An HMI touch screen and a circuit breaker are mounted on the housing. The HMI touch screen is connected to both the bidirectional DC / DC converter and the supercapacitor module. Supports are mounted on both sides of the housing, and shelves are detachably connected between the supports on both sides to divide the internal space of the housing into two compartments, namely a first compartment and a second compartment. The supercapacitor module is installed in the second compartment, and the bidirectional DC / DC converter is installed on the shelf. The bidirectional DC / DC converter is connected to the elevator DC bus after being connected to the circuit breaker.

[0006] Furthermore, a cooling fan is installed on the side panel of the box located in the second compartment to blow the heat inside the box to the outside of the box; the supercapacitor module is connected to the cooling fan, and the supercapacitor module is assembled in the second compartment through a capacitor bracket, and the supercapacitor module is composed of multiple supercapacitor cells connected in series; Furthermore, several heat dissipation holes are provided on the side panels of the box body located in the first compartment and the second compartment, and handles are installed on the outer side panels of the box body; rubber pads are provided at the bottom of the box body; Furthermore, the outer side of the enclosure is equipped with a power interface and a voltage interface, wherein the power interface is a three-hole interface and the voltage interface is a two-hole interface; Furthermore, the bidirectional DC / DC converter is connected to the circuit breaker, and the circuit breaker is connected to the elevator DC bus via the voltage interface after connecting the capacitive reactance XC; the bidirectional DC / DC converter is connected to the mains power via the power interface after connecting the capacitive reactance XC. Furthermore, the enclosure has an installation opening, and a cover is rotatably connected to the outside of the enclosure at the installation opening. The circuit breaker is assembled inside the enclosure at the corresponding installation opening position via a support frame.

[0007] The beneficial effects of this utility model are that the box is equipped with a bidirectional DC / DC converter and a supercapacitor module that are interconnected. The bidirectional DC / DC converter is connected to the elevator DC bus after being connected to the circuit breaker. Through the combined use of the bidirectional DC / DC converter and the supercapacitor module, the potential energy generated by the elevator in the power generation state can be converted into electrical energy and stored in the supercapacitor module through the elevator DC bus. This achieves energy saving in the elevator, not only avoiding energy waste but also reducing the operating cost of the elevator, and has good economic value. Attached Figure Description
