Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0018] The present invention discloses a pneumatic power device, which reduces dependence on thermal energy resources and reduces environmental pollution.

[0019] The drawings of the embodiments of the present invention will be combined below to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention. The described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained on the premise that those skilled in the art do not perform labor worthy of inventive step belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0020] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an annular gas storage container of a pneumatic power device disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of an output system of a pneumatic power device disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a starting system of a pneumatic power device disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0021] According to the pneumatic power device disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention, the pneumatic power device includes an annular gas storage container 1, a starting system, and an output system.

[0022] On the inner peripheral wall of the annular gas storage container 1, a plurality of cylinders 2 are uniformly arranged along the circumferential direction. The cylinder cavities of the cylinders 2 communicate with the cavity of the annular gas storage container 1. The axes of the cylinder bodies of the cylinders 2 are arranged along the radial direction of the annular gas storage container 1. A rack 4 is provided on the piston rod 3 of the cylinder 2. The rack 4 is connected to the piston rod 3 by a connecting component. The length direction of the rack 4 is parallel to the axial direction of the piston rod 3 of the cylinder 2.

[0023] The starting system includes a power source, a driving device 15, a speed reduction and torque increase mechanism, and a cam 5. The power source may be a commercial power source or a battery. The power source is electrically connected to the driving device 15. The driving device 15 is transmission-connected to the cam 5 by a speed reduction and torque increase mechanism. The cam 5 is coaxially arranged with the annular gas storage container 1. One end of the piston rod 3 of each cylinder 2, which is away from the cylinder body of the cylinder 2, abuts against the cam 5.

[0024] The output system includes a one-way transmission mechanism and an output shaft 10. A one-way gear 7 is provided at the input end of the one-way transmission mechanism, and the one-way gear 7 meshes with a rack 4. Each rack 4 is transmitted to the output shaft 10 by a single one-way transmission mechanism. Only when the piston rod 3 of the cylinder 2 is extended, the rack 4 drives the one-way gear 7 via the one-way transmission mechanism to rotate the output shaft 10.

[0025] When in use, first, the annular gas storage container 1 is filled with gas so that the air pressure inside the annular gas storage container 1 reaches a predetermined value. Then, the starting system is driven to rotate the cam 5. As the cam 5 rotates, the piston rods 3 of each cylinder 2 reciprocate in sequence. When the protrusion of the cam 5 contacts the piston rod 3, the cam 5 applies pressure to the cylinder 2, causing the rod of the cylinder 2 to be retracted. At this time, the rack 4 meshes with the one-way gear 7 of the one-way transmission mechanism, but the rack 4 does not transmit power by allowing the one-way gear 7 to rotate freely. The cam 5 continues to rotate until the recess of the cam 5 contacts and engages with the rod of the cylinder 2, and the annular gas The pressure inside the storage container 1 causes the rods of the cylinders 2 to extend, and the racks 4 rotate the unidirectional gears 7 to transmit power. When the cams 5 rotate, the piston rods 3 and racks 4 of the multiple cylinders 2 are extended and reset in sequence. As the cams 5 continue to rotate, each cylinder 2 repeatedly converts the pressure energy stored in the annular gas storage container 1 into mechanical energy and outputs it to the outside. The speed of the output depends on the torque output from the drive unit 15. As the piston rods 3 of the multiple cylinders 2 reciprocate, the multiple racks 4 are driven cyclically to rotate the corresponding unidirectional gears 7 in sequence, thereby outputting power.

[0026] Compared to the prior art, the drive unit 15 of the starting system of the pneumatic power device provided in the embodiment of the present invention drives the cam 5 to rotate by a reduction / torque increase mechanism, increasing the torque output from the drive unit 15 of the starting system, and enabling the drive unit 15 to rotate the cam 5 with a small torque. Furthermore, the output power of the pneumatic power device can be increased indefinitely. For example, by increasing the pressure per unit area of ​​the annular gas storage container 1, increasing the piston area of ​​the cylinder 2, and increasing the number of cylinders 2, the structural design of the pneumatic power device allows compressed air to be used indefinitely and repeatedly within a closed-loop system until the seal member fails. This pneumatic power device has less reliance on conventional fuels, mainly works using pressure differences, and air is an abundant renewable resource that can be repeatedly used as a medium for energy storage. It effectively avoids reliance on thermal energy resources, reduces emissions, saves energy, is environmentally friendly, and simultaneously solves the problems of energy crisis and air pollution.

[0027] Preferably, in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figure 3, the reduction / torque increase mechanism includes a first gear set and a second gear set, the first gear set comprises a meshed first drive gear 14 and a first driven gear 13, the first drive gear 14 is provided at the output terminal of the drive unit 15, the number of teeth of the first drive gear 14 is less than the number of teeth of the first driven gear 13, the second gear set comprises a meshed second drive gear 12 and a second driven gear 11, the second drive The drive gear 12 is coaxially connected to the first driven gear 13, and the second driven gear 11 is coaxially connected to the cam 5. The cam shaft and the output shaft 10 are concentrically positioned, and both the cam shaft and the output shaft 10 are driven by different power sources. The cam 5 is connected to the second driven gear 11 by the cam shaft, and its power comes from the power supply and drive device 15. The power of the output shaft 10 comes from each of the cylinders 2. The number of teeth on the second drive gear 12 is less than the number of teeth on the second driven gear 11.

[0028] Of course, the reduction and torque-increasing mechanism composed of gears described above is merely a preferred implementation solution provided in the embodiments of the present invention, and a belt drive mechanism or a sprocket drive mechanism may also be used as the reduction and torque-increasing mechanism, and is not limited thereto.

[0029] Specifically, in an embodiment of the present invention, the one-way transmission mechanism includes a one-way gear set and a driven gear plate 9, the one-way gear set comprises a one-way gear 7 and a third driven gear 8 that are coaxially connected, the one-way gear set is provided to correspond to each rack 4, the driven gear plate 9 is coaxially connected to the output shaft 10 and meshes with the third driven gear 8 of each one-way gear set.

[0030] To optimize the above technical proposal, the number of teeth on the driven gear plate 9 is increased to be greater than the number of teeth on the third driven gear 8, thereby creating a reduction in speed and an increase in torque between the driven gear plate 9 and the third driven gear 8.

[0031] Preferably, as shown in Figures 1 and 3, a rotatable top wheel 6 is provided at one end of the piston rod 3 of the cylinder 2 that is away from the cylinder body of the cylinder 2, and the end of the piston rod 3 that is away from the cylinder body of the cylinder 2 is in contact with the cam 5 by the top wheel 6. As a result, the relative motion between the piston rod 3 and the cam 6 changes from sliding to rolling, reducing the frictional force between the piston rod 3 and the cam 5, thereby reducing resistance and decreasing frictional heat loss.

[0032] In an embodiment of the present invention, the annular gas storage container 1 is further provided with a safety valve, which releases pressure when the atmospheric pressure inside the annular gas storage container 1 exceeds a rated value, thereby ensuring the safety of the equipment.

[0033] Preferably, the pneumatic power unit further includes a pressure detection device, a pressure replenishment device, and a controller, wherein the pressure detection device detects the pressure in the annular gas storage container 1, the pressure replenishment device is connected to a power source, the output terminal of the pressure replenishment device is connected to the annular gas storage container 1, the signal input terminal of the controller is connected to the pressure detection device, the signal output terminal of the controller is connected to the pressure replenishment device, and the controller controls the pressure replenishment device to replenish the pressure in the annular gas storage container 1 based on the value detected by the pressure detection device.

[0034] Furthermore, the power source is a battery 18, and the pneumatic power unit further includes a generator and an energy detection device. The generator is connected to the battery 18, the energy detection device detects the energy of the battery 18, the generator is connected to the output shaft 10 by a clutch, the signal input terminal of the controller is connected to the energy detection device, and the signal output terminal of the controller is connected to the clutch. When the energy detection device detects that the energy of the battery 18 is lower than a predetermined value, the controller controls the clutch to transmit power to the battery 18 by connecting the generator to the output shaft 10, that is, the electrical energy of the battery 18 originates from the pneumatic power unit itself.

[0035] Preferably, the drive unit 15 is an electric motor, which is connected to a power source by a start switch 17. When the start switch 17 is turned on, the electric motor starts to rotate and outputs torque. When the start switch 17 is turned off, the rotation of the electric motor stops. The electric motor is equipped with a speed governor 16, and the user or controller adjusts the rotational speed of the electric motor using the speed governor 16 to adjust the output power according to the needs.

[0036] In an embodiment of the present invention, the controller is communicated via remote control to the start switch 17, the pressure replenishment device, and the clutch, respectively, and the user or controller remotely controls the start switch 17, the pressure replenishment device, and the clutch using the remote control.

[0037] As described above, the output power P of the pneumatic power unit satisfies the following formula: P(w) = kilogram-force (kgf) output from the working piston cylinder * rotational speed when the output shaft is loaded ÷ 60s ÷ 75 kg·m.

[0038] The above formula is a conclusion obtained through practical verification using torque coefficient detection devices and equipment. The construction of this formula has significant implications for the future manufacture and research and development of pneumatic power equipment. As can be seen through many years of experimentation, pneumatic power is elastic, and the optimal peak of pneumatic expansion energy occurs only when the kilogram force output from the piston cylinder is a multiple of the kilogram force when the output shaft is loaded. Therefore, the above formula is obtained.

[0039] The following describes specific examples of the present invention.

[0040] Cylinder 2 has a diameter of 180 mm, and the piston area is 254 cm². 2 The pressure used per unit area is 0.6 MPa, and eight cylinders 2 are concentrically and uniformly arranged around the circumference of each annular gas storage container 1. Each cylinder 2 has a piston rod 3 equipped with both a top wheel 6 and a rack 4, and the top wheels 6 of the piston rods 3 of three of these cylinders 2 are always in rotatable contact with the cam 5, and the pressure exerted by each top wheel 6 on the cam 5 is 254 cm². 2 *0.6 MPa = 1524 kgf, and the pressure applied by the three top wheels 6 to the cam 5 simultaneously is 1524 kgf * 3 = 4572 kgf. Due to the action of the drive unit 15 and the reduction / torque increase mechanism, the frictional resistance of the rotation of the cam 5 is reduced by 85%, and the starting system can achieve the power output of the equipment by consuming 15% of the force generated from the output system. In other words, by using only 15 kgf, the piston of cylinder 2 with a pressure of 100 kg is reset, and 85% of the equipment's power is output externally.
