Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a cart for mounting and moving an electric generator flywheel. Background Technology

[0003] Electric generator flywheels are energy storage devices with high energy density and are attracting attention in various fields, such as power grid stabilization, renewable energy integration, and performance enhancement of electric vehicles and industrial equipment.

[0004] In particular, the technology of storing kinetic energy through the high-speed rotation of a flywheel and converting it into electrical energy as needed plays an important role in increasing energy efficiency and reducing carbon emissions.

[0005] A flywheel system generally consists of a flywheel, a motor / generator, power electronic devices, and a control system.

[0006] Flywheels are made of high-strength and lightweight materials and rotate at high speeds in vacuum or low-pressure environments to store energy.

[0007] Motors / generators convert electrical energy into kinetic energy to rotate a flywheel, or convert the rotational energy of a flywheel into electrical energy to supply to an external load.

[0008] Power electronic devices perform power conversion and control functions, while the control system is responsible for monitoring and control functions for the stable operation of the flywheel system.

[0009] Precise mounting and movement technology is essential for the safe and efficient operation of a flywheel.

[0010] The flywheel is a high-speed rotating component that is sensitive to vibration and shock, and improper handling poses a high risk of system damage and safety accidents.

[0011] Previously, it was common to use heavy equipment such as cranes or forklifts to mount and move flywheels.

[0012] However, such heavy equipment faces problems such as workspace constraints, high operating costs, the need for skilled operators, and the potential for safety accidents.

[0013] Therefore, the development of new technology capable of safely and efficiently mounting and moving flywheels is required. Prior art literature

[0030] Below, each component is described in detail.

[0031] base plate part (101)

[0032] The base plate portion (101) may be provided in the shape of a plate having a predetermined thickness, for example.

[0033] The base plate portion (101) may have an elongated slot (H) formed in the center along the longitudinal direction.

[0034] A fixed support member (107) that is coupled to the lower part of the support clamp member (103) to be described later and fixes and supports the support clamp member (103) may be coupled to one side wall and the other side wall of the elongated hole (H).

[0036] Support clamp part (103)

[0037] The support clamp portion (103) is provided on the base plate portion (101).

[0038] The support clamp portion (103) is formed with a curvature corresponding to the curvature of the flywheel (501).

[0039] The support clamp part (103) is positioned so that a predetermined section of the outer surface of the flywheel (501) is seated and mounted.

[0040] To explain the structure of the support clamp portion (103) in more detail, the support clamp portion (103) may include a central support portion (103a) on which the outer surface of the flywheel (501) is seated and supported; and a side support portion (103b) that protrudes along both edges of the central support portion (103a) and supports both sides of the flywheel (501).

[0041] The central support member (103a) may have a plate structure formed with a curvature corresponding to the curvature of the flywheel (501) so that the outer surface of the flywheel (501) is seated and supported.

[0042] The side support (103b) may have a plate structure that protrudes along both edges of the central support (103a).

[0043] The side support members (103b) support both sides of the flywheel (501) to prevent the flywheel (501) from easily detaching from the central support member (103a).

[0045] Handle part (105)

[0046] The handle portion (105) is provided standing on one side of the base plate portion (101).

[0047] The handle portion (105) is provided so that a worker can easily move the electric generator flywheel mounting and moving cart (100) which is an embodiment of the present invention.

[0049] Moving wheel section (not shown)

[0050] The moving wheel section is provided at the bottom of the base plate section (101).

[0051] The moving wheel section may have a structure in which a pair is provided on each side of the lower part of the base plate section (101).

[0053] Meanwhile, the electric generator flywheel mounting and moving cart (100) according to one embodiment of the present invention may further include an outrigger part (109a, 109b) provided at least on one side or the other side of the base plate part (101) and configured to stably support the base plate part (101) against the floor.

[0054] In the embodiment, since the outrigger parts (109a, 109b) provided on both sides of the base plate part (101) have the same structure, one outrigger part (109a) will be described.

[0055] The outrigger section (109a) may include a central pipe section (201) coupled to one side of the base plate section (101); and inlet / outlet sections (203, 205) that are respectively drawn out from both sides of the central pipe section (201) or inserted into the interior of both sides of the central pipe section (201).

[0056] The central pipe section (201) may be provided in the shape of a hollow square tube, for example.

[0057] The central pipe section (201) may have long sliding holes (201a, 201b) formed on both sides of the upper surface.

[0058] The operating knob (203a, 205a) provided in the inlet / outlet arm section (203, 205) to be described later can be exposed to the outside through the sliding hole (201a, 201b).

[0059] The inlet / outlet sections (203, 205) are each pulled out from both sides of the central pipe section (201) or each inserted into the interior of both sides of the central pipe section (201).

[0060] The inlet / outlet section (203, 205) can be provided in the shape of a square tube, for example.

[0061] Each of the inlet / outlet arm sections (203, 205) is equipped with the aforementioned operating knob (203a, 205a).

[0062] The operating knobs (203a, 205a) function as handles that can be grasped by the operator when pulling out the inlet / outlet arm sections (203, 205) from each side of the central pipe section (201) or when pulling the inlet / outlet arm sections (203, 205) into each side of the central pipe section (201).

[0063] Meanwhile, the inlet / outlet arm section (203, 205) may further include a height adjustment section (111a, 111b, 113a, 113b) coupled to the end.

[0064] The height adjustment part (111a, 111b, 113a, 113b) can be provided as an eye bolt, for example.

[0065] When the electric generator flywheel mounting and moving cart (100) of the present invention is stopped, the operator can operate the height adjustment unit (111a, 111b, 113a, 113b) to cause the moving wheel to be lifted off the ground, thereby preventing the possibility of safety accidents occurring due to the electric generator flywheel mounting and moving cart (100) of the present invention moving arbitrarily.

[0067] As described above, according to one embodiment of the present invention, safe and precise mounting and movement of the flywheel is enabled, thereby improving work efficiency, reducing costs associated with the use of conventional heavy equipment and preventing safety accidents, and minimizing workspace constraints to enable efficient work even in confined spaces.

[0068] Although it has been described above that all components constituting an embodiment of the present invention are combined or operate as a single unit, the present invention is not necessarily limited to such an embodiment. That is, within the scope of the purpose of the present invention, all components may be selectively combined in one or more ways to operate.
