Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention

[0014] To fully understand the object, features, and effects of the present invention, the present invention will be described in detail as follows in conjunction with the accompanying drawings through the following specific embodiments.

[0015] Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, as shown in the drawings, the present invention provides a green energy elevator including an elevator 1, an electric control module 2, an energy storage module 3, a commercial power supply module 4, and a solar module 5.

[0016] The elevator 1 includes a car 11 and a transmission module 12 connected to the car 11.

[0017] The electric control module 2 is electrically connected to the transmission module 12.

[0018] The energy storage module 3 is electrically connected to the electric control module 2.

[0019] The commercial power supply module 4 is electrically connected to the energy storage module 3.

[0020] The solar module 5 is electrically connected to the energy storage module 3.

[0021] When in use, in the present invention, while city power is taken in from the commercial power supply module 4 into the energy storage module, at the same time, after photoelectric conversion is performed by the solar module 5, the electric power is stored in the energy storage module 3, and after power is supplied from the energy storage module 3 to the electric control module 2 and voltage modulation (AC / DC power conversion) is performed, the electric control module 2 drives the transmission module 12, whereby the transmission module 12 obtains electric power and can drive the lifting movement of the car 11 of the elevator 1. In this way, the green energy elevator of the present invention transports and stores electric power in the energy storage module 3 by the commercial power supply module 4 and the solar module 5, and drives the transmission module 12 through the cooperation of the energy storage module 3 and the electric control module 2, and drives the car 11 of the elevator 1 by the transmission module 12, so that the elevator 1 can operate for a long time even in the case of a power outage or no sunlight, and in addition to avoiding the entrapment of passengers due to a power outage, an energy-saving effect can also be achieved by the power supply through the cooperation of the commercial power supply module 4 and the solar module 5.

[0022] As can be understood from the above description, in the green energy elevator of the present invention, the commercial power supply module 4 and the solar module 5 simultaneously (or individually) transport power to the energy storage module 3 for storage. Since the energy storage module 3 is used as the overall power supply source, the elevator 1 can be operated for a long time by the energy storage module 3 in which power has been stored in advance, whether the power is normal, there is a power outage, there is no sunlight, or there is a power outage and no sunlight.

[0023] In addition to the above-described embodiments, in one embodiment of the present invention, the electric control module 2 includes a voltage controller 21 and a driver 22. The driver 22 is electrically connected to the transmission module 12 and the voltage controller 21. Among them, the voltage controller 21 and the driver 22 may be a central processing unit, a chip, or a logic circuit. In this way, after power is supplied from the energy storage module 3 to the electric control module 2 and the voltage controller 21 performs voltage modulation (for example, converts the power into 48-volt DC), the driver 22 of the electric control module 2 drives the transmission module 12, so that the transmission module 12 can obtain power and drive the lifting movement of the car 11 of the elevator 1. In this way, the green energy elevator of the present invention transports and stores power to the energy storage module 3 by the commercial power supply module 4 and the solar module 5, and drives the transmission module 12 by the cooperation of the energy storage module 3 and the electric control module 2. By driving the car 11 of the elevator 1 by the transmission module 12, the elevator 1 can be operated for a long time even in the event of a power outage or no sunlight. In addition to avoiding the entrapment of passengers due to a power outage, an energy-saving effect can also be achieved by the power supply through the cooperation of the commercial power supply module 4 and the solar module 5.

[0024] In addition to the above-described embodiments, in one embodiment of the present invention, the energy storage module 3 may be a secondary battery. In this way, while city power is taken in from the commercial power module 4 into the energy storage module 3, after photoelectric conversion is performed by the solar module 5, the power is stored in the energy storage module 3, so that the energy storage module 3 can achieve the effect of repeated charge and discharge.

[0025] In addition to the above-described embodiments, in one embodiment of the present invention, the commercial power module 4 may be a power connection connector of 110 volts or 220 volts. In this way, city power is taken in from the commercial power module 4 into the energy storage module 3, and it may be used as one of the power sources.

[0026] In addition to the above-described embodiments, in one embodiment of the present invention, the solar module 5 includes a fixed base 51 and a plurality of solar panels. The solar panel 52 is provided on the fixed base 51, and the solar panel 52 is electrically connected to the energy storage module 3. In this way, the solar panel 52 can be stably supported by the fixed base 51, and the solar module 5 can be installed in a place with sufficient sunlight such as outdoors or indoors of a building by the fixed base 51. Therefore, the solar panel 52 can obtain a better sunlight effect, and after photoelectric conversion is performed with better efficiency by the solar panel 52, the power is stored in the energy storage module 3, and it may be used as another power source.

[0027] Although the present invention is disclosed in preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the above embodiments are only used to explain the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that all equivalent changes and substitutions to the above embodiments are also included in the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is based on the scope of claims for utility model registration.
