For this reason, there is growing interest in the development of clean energy.

[0003] Wave power is a method of converting the kinetic energy of ocean waves into electricity through special mechanical devices or hydraulic systems. Wave power has the advantages of high energy density and strong predictability. However, wave power technology is still in the development stage and faces technical challenges, high costs, and environmental adaptability issues, so further research, development, and optimization are needed.

[0022] The following provides a detailed introduction to the present utility model based on specific examples for the purpose of providing a better understanding, but the following examples do not limit the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0023] Example 1 This embodiment discloses a rocking type power generating device including a work platform 1, a power generating component 2 and a supporting component 3.

[0024] The workbench 1 adopts an octagonal prism structure. A chamber 11 is provided inside the workbench 1, which contains a liquid 4 that increases the shaking frequency and shaking amplitude of the workbench. In this embodiment, the liquid 4 is water, and the amount of the liquid 4 occupies 60% of the volume of the chamber 11, so that the liquid 4 does not fill the chamber 11 and can shake freely.

[0025] The power generating component 2 includes a rotating component 21, a transmission component 22, and a generator 23. The rotating component 21 includes a transmission rod 211, a connecting rod 212, a pendulum 213, and a slide rail 214. The transmission rod 211 is disposed at the center of the slide rail 214, and both ends of the connecting rod 212 are fixedly connected to the transmission rod 211 and the pendulum 213, respectively. The slide rail 214 is a circular slide rail with the transmission rod 211 at its center.

[0026] When the workbench 1 is tilted and swung by the action of an external force, the pendulum 213 rotates along the slide rail 214 under the action of gravity, causing the transmission rod 211 to rotate. When the transmission rod 211 rotates, it drives the generator 23 via the transmission part 22 to generate electricity. A pulley 215 that fits the slide rail 214 is provided at the bottom of the pendulum 213, and the pendulum 213 slides along the slide rail 214 via the pulley 215. The main role of the slide rail 214 is to support and fix the pendulum 213, and by supporting it and restricting it above the slide rail 214, it prevents it from derailing during sliding. The pulley 215 can reduce the frictional force when the pendulum 213 rotates, and increase the energy conversion efficiency.

[0027] The transmission part 22 includes a transmission 221, which is provided with an input shaft 222 and an output shaft 223, the input shaft 222 and the output shaft 223 being perpendicular to each other. The end of the input shaft 222 is fixedly connected to the transmission rod 211 to maintain synchronous rotation. The output shaft 223 is parallel to the working surface of the worktable.

[0028] The generator 23 is installed on the workbench 1. The output shaft 223 is linearly connected to a rotor shaft 231 of the generator 23 via a coupling 224.

[0029] As shown in Figures 1 and 3, the generator 23 and the transmission parts 22 are arranged in an area surrounded by the pulley 215. The connecting rod 212 is located above the generator 23 and the transmission parts 22, and the pendulum 213 slides outside the generator 23 and the transmission parts 22. The above structure simplifies the connection between the generator 23, the transmission 221 and the worktable 1, making it more stable and firm. The above design can effectively increase the length of the connecting rod 212, increase the torque during the movement of the pendulum 213, and improve the power generation effect. In addition, the above structure optimizes the space utilization of the worktable 1, and makes the layout of the working parts on the worktable 1 more reasonable.

[0030] The support parts include a support base 32 and a spring 31. Both ends of the spring 31 are fixedly connected to the top of the support base 32 and the bottom of the work table 1, respectively. The number of support parts may be one or more sets. In this embodiment, there are eight sets of support parts 3, which are evenly distributed on the bottom of the work table 1.

[0031] In this embodiment, the device can be fixed to the ship's hull by a support stand. When the ship's hull tilts and sways due to the waves of the sea, the work platform 1 also tilts and sways. The pendulum 213 rotates along the slide rail 214 by the action of gravity, rotating the input shaft 222, which in turn rotates the rotor of the generator 23 via the transmission 221 to generate electricity.

[0032] In this embodiment, a number of springs 31 are provided at the bottom of the worktable 1, and a chamber 11 for containing liquid 4 is provided inside. The installation of the springs 31 and the chamber 11 further enhances the instability of the worktable 1, increasing the amplitude and frequency of the worktable's oscillation, allowing the worktable 1 to oscillate continuously under the action of an external force, and allowing the pendulum 213 to smoothly slide continuously on the slide rail 214. This realizes sustained and highly efficient power generation.

[0033] Example 2 This example discloses a swing type power generating device.

[0034] In this example, a mast and sail 5 is installed at the center of the top of the work platform 1, and the mast and sail 5 are fixed to the work platform 1 by a support frame 6.

[0035] Other structures of this embodiment are similar to those of the first embodiment.

[0036] In this embodiment, a mast and a sail 5 are added based on the first embodiment, the acquisition of external energy is increased, and the wind force is utilized to increase the swing amplitude and swing frequency of the work platform 1, thereby improving the swing effect of the work platform 1. On this basis, the energy of waves and wind can be comprehensively utilized on the sea surface to improve the power generation efficiency.

[0037] In addition, since the present embodiment can be swung by utilizing wind power, the usage scene of the present embodiment is wider, and it can be used not only on the sea surface but also in places where wind power and vibration energy are relatively abundant.

[0038] The power generated by the device of the present invention can be sent to a storage battery via a rectifier, or can be transmitted to the outside via a power line.

[0039] Conventional wave energy power generation devices mainly include pendulum wave power generation systems and floating pendulum wave energy power generation devices.

[0040] The pendulum wave power generation system uses a pendulum to absorb wave energy, convert it into mechanical energy, and drive a power generation device by the rotation of the pendulum. The device has a simple structure, is easy to maintain and repair, and is suitable for a variety of marine environments.

[0041] In the floating pendulum wave energy power generation device, waves directly act on a buoyant pendulum, and the up and down motion of the waves is converted into mechanical energy of the buoyant pendulum, which is then converted into electricity. The device can include a three- or four-stage energy conversion process, which improves the controllability and stability of the energy conversion.

[0042] Conventional wind power generation devices usually have relatively large rotors. The rotors require abundant and stable wind energy resources, which places high demands on the selection of power generation locations. In addition, conventional wind power generation devices require a large area, which is disadvantageous for application in cities and areas with limited space. In addition, the manufacturing, transportation and maintenance costs of large rotors are relatively high, and they have a certain degree of visual and noise impact on the environment.

[0043] This technical means has the following technical advantages over conventional wave power generation devices and wind power generation devices.

[0044] 1. This utility model makes it possible to comprehensively utilize various energies, such as wave power, wind power, gravity potential, elastic potential of a spring, and the upward force of liquids, thereby improving the efficiency of energy collection and power generation, and increasing the applicability of the device, making it suitable for a variety of work situations.

[0045] 2. This utility model has a mechanism for strengthening the swing through the design of the internal liquid and spring, which can increase the swing width and frequency of the worktable, improve the frequency and width of the pendulum swing, and increase the power generation efficiency.

[0046] 3. The utility model adopts a modular design, and each component is assembled as a module, which makes maintenance and part replacement easier and reduces long-term operating costs.

[0047] 4. This utility model has high environmental adaptability and can utilize various natural energy sources, so it can demonstrate good power generation capabilities even under different environmental conditions.

[0048] 5. This utility model uses a rocking design, which generates rocking under the action of various natural forces, and has the effect of capturing energy and improving energy utilization efficiency.

For those skilled in the art, any equivalent modification or replacement of the present invention is within the scope of the present invention.
