Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0006] In a conventional circulating solar thermal power generation device, since the rotary pipe 120 and a plurality of generators 50 are installed above the chimney 30, the support frame for withstanding the weight of the plurality of generators 50 is complicated, and since the support frame is heavy, the device box itself becomes heavy and the center of gravity becomes high. As a result, there is a lack of stability and the manufacturing cost becomes high, and there is a drawback of being vulnerable to shaking due to an earthquake or the like and vibration due to wind pressure.

Means for Solving the Problem

[0007] An object of the present invention is to reduce the weight of a conventional circulating solar thermal power generation device, lower the center of gravity, eliminate the support frame for supporting the generator 50 and the rotary pipe 120, and minimize shaking due to an earthquake and vibration due to wind force.

[0008] To achieve the above object, a shielding plate 60 for shielding the inside and outside of the chimney 30 is provided at the bottom of the chimney 30 and the bottom of the device box 1 at the inlet where air flows from outside the chimney 30 into the chimney 30. A plurality of ventilation holes 41 for the shielding plate are provided in the shielding plate 60, and a Ikeimi turbine 40 with a plurality of L-shaped nozzles 130 fixed to the ventilation holes 41 for the shielding plate is fitted, and a generator 50 is fixed to the Ikeimi turbine 40.

[0009] In addition, the air flowing from outside the chimney 30 into the chimney 30 flows in via a plurality of ventilation holes 41 for the shielding plate and the Ikeimi turbine 40, and does not flow into the chimney 30 from other than the ventilation holes 41 for the shielding plate. The air outside the chimney 30 flows into the chimney 30 via the ventilation holes 41 for the shielding plate and the Ikeimi turbine 40.

[0010] Further, due to the energy of the upward airflow inside the chimney 30 and the downward airflow outside the chimney 30, the direction in which the air flowing into the Ikeimi turbine 40 is ejected from the L-shaped nozzles 130 is the tangential direction of the rotation axis of the Ikeimi turbine 40 and is ejected in the same direction, thereby rotating the Ikeimi turbine 40 and rotating the generator 50 connected to the Ikeimi turbine 40 to generate electricity.

Advantages of the Invention

[0011] By installing the Ikenomiya turbine 40 and the generator 50 at the bottom of the chimney 30 and the bottom of the equipment box 1, the center of gravity of the equipment box 1 can be lowered, and the vibration of the equipment box 1 caused by the vibration of the earthquake and the wind pressure such as wind can be minimized.

[0012] In addition, since a plurality of Ikenomiya turbines 40 and a plurality of generators 50 can be installed at the bottom of the equipment box 1, the support base for supporting the plurality of Ikenomiya turbines 40 and the plurality of generators 50 can be eliminated, so that the manufacturing cost can be significantly reduced.
