[0048] The scope of the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described below, and various modifications may be made by a person having ordinary knowledge in the relevant technical field without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention.
[0049] Hereinafter, the wind power generation structure of the present invention and the hybrid power generation device using the same are described in detail with reference to the attached drawings 1 to 23.
[0050]
[0051] First, the wind power generation structure (A) of the present invention includes a module structure (100) through which air introduced from the outside can pass through the inside and be discharged to the outside, and a wind power generation module (200) coupled to the module structure (100).
[0052] The modular structure (100) includes a first flow-forming member (110), a second flow-forming member (120), and a third flow-forming member (130), and has a three-dimensional structure in which an inlet and outlet for air to flow in and out are formed. The first flow-forming member (110) and the second flow-forming member (120) are respectively arranged at the top and bottom of the modular structure (100), and the third flow-forming member (130) is provided to connect both edges of the first flow-forming member (110) and both edges of the second flow-forming member (120). At this time, the first flow-forming member (110) and the second flow-forming member (120) may be formed to have the same size and shape, or may be formed to have different sizes and shapes.
[0053] As a first embodiment of the modular structure (100), as illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 5, the first flow-forming member (110) and the second flow-forming member (120) may be formed in a frame shape and may be arranged at the top and bottom of the modular structure (100), respectively, and the third flow-forming member (130) may be formed in a bar shape in which the top is coupled to the first flow-forming member (110) and the bottom is coupled to the second flow-forming member (120), and a plurality of such members may be provided spaced apart from each other at a predetermined interval. The modular structure (100) including the first flow-forming member (110), the second flow-forming member (120), and the third flow-forming member (130) forms a three-dimensional structure that is open in the front-back, left-right, and up-down directions, so that air can flow in and out in the front-back, left-right, and up-down directions of the modular structure (100).
[0054] As a second embodiment of the modular structure (100), as illustrated in FIGS. 6 to 10, the first flow-forming member (110) and the second flow-forming member (120) may have a plate shape and form the upper and lower surfaces of the modular structure (100), respectively, and the third flow-forming member (130) may have a plate shape in which the upper end has a length corresponding to the length of one edge of the first flow-forming member (110) and the lower end has a length corresponding to the length of one edge of the second flow-forming member (120). The modular structure (100) including the first flow-forming member (110), the second flow-forming member (120), and the third flow-forming member (130) has a tubular shape that is open only in the front-rear direction, so that air can flow in and out only in the front-rear direction of the modular structure (100).
[0055] In a third embodiment of the modular structure (100), as illustrated in FIGS. 14 to 21, the first flow-forming member (110) and the second flow-forming member (120) may have a plate shape and may form the upper surface and the lower surface of the modular structure (100), respectively, and the third flow-forming member (130) may be formed in a bar shape with an upper end coupled to the first flow-forming member (110) and a lower end coupled to the second flow-forming member (120), and a plurality of such members may be provided spaced apart from each other at a predetermined interval. The modular structure (100) including the first flow-forming member (110), the second flow-forming member (120), and the third flow-forming member (130) forms a three-dimensional structure that is open in the front-rear direction and the left-right direction, so that air can flow in and out in the front-rear direction and the left-right direction of the modular structure (100).
[0056] A wind power generation module (200) includes a support column (210) that is vertically installed and one end of which is connected to a module structure (100), and a plurality of blades (220) that are rotatably arranged on the support column (210), and produces electric energy through the rotational force of the blades (220). At this time, the blades (220) can be formed in various shapes in consideration of the installation location, wind volume, etc.
[0057] The wind power generation module (200) includes a first wind power generation module (200a) provided within a module structure (100), and the first wind power generation module (200a) may have one end of a support column (210) coupled to the top or bottom of the module structure (100), and a blade (220) positioned in a space between a first flow path forming member (110) and a second flow path forming member (120). Not only may one of the first wind power generation modules (200a) be installed within the module structure (100), but a plurality of such modules may also be installed along the front-rear direction within the module structure (100).
[0058] In this way, the first wind power generation module (200a) provided inside the module structure (100) can rotate the blades (220) under the influence of the inflow and outflow of air concentrated through the module structure (100), and thus can increase the power generation efficiency compared to a wind power generation device installed alone outside and producing electric energy through the air flow acting on it. Accordingly, the wind power generation module (200) can be configured to be relatively smaller than a conventional wind power generation device, and thus the wind power generation structure (A) can be manufactured to take up less space, so that the wind power generation structure (A) can be installed in various places such as land and water without restrictions on the installation location to produce electric energy.
[0059] Meanwhile, in the case where the first wind power generation module (200a) is installed in the module structure (100) in which air flows in and out in the front-back, left-right, and up-and-down directions according to the first embodiment described above, the module structure (100) may further include a power generation module support (160) that connects the facing sides of the first flow-forming member (110) or the second flow-forming member (120) arranged at the upper or lower end of the module structure (100) to which one end of the support column (210) is coupled, and one end of the support column (210) of the first wind power generation module (200a) may be coupled to the power generation module support (160). For example, the power generation module support (160) may be formed in a bar shape and provided so that a plurality of them intersect, so that one end of the support column (210) may be coupled to the intersecting point. At this time, it is preferable that the point where the plurality of power generation module supports (160) intersect and one end of the support pillar (210) is connected is located on the same plane as the midpoint between the plurality of third flow-forming members (130). The module structure (100) according to the first embodiment can be configured to increase the inflow of air and form a faster air flow inside than outside.
[0060] In the first embodiment, as illustrated in FIGS. 2 to 5, the modular structure (100) may have an inlet and outlet formed by a first flow path-forming member (110), a second flow path-forming member (120), and a third flow path-forming member (130), and the inlet and outlet may include a first inlet and outlet through which air flows in and out in the front-back direction, and a second inlet and outlet through which air flows in and out in the left-right direction. In addition, the first inlet and the second inlet and outlet may be provided with an inlet and outlet guide (170) having a cone shape in which the inside is empty, both ends located on the outside and inside are open, and the width decreases from the outside to the inside. This first embodiment may be applied not only to the basic modular structure (100) of the first embodiment, but also to the modular structures (100) of the first embodiment to the first embodiment to be described later, the first embodiment to the first embodiment to the first embodiment to the third embodiment.
[0061] The inlet / outlet guide (170) is provided symmetrically so as to face the first inlet / outlet at the front end of the module structure (100) and the first inlet / outlet at the rear end of the module structure (100), and is provided symmetrically so as to face the second inlet / outlet at one side of the module structure (100) and the second inlet / outlet at the other side of the module structure (100), and allows air to flow in at a high velocity toward the inside of the module structure (100). In addition, the air that has flowed into the inside of the module structure (100) can flow out to the outside through the first inlet / outlet and the second inlet / outlet through which no air has flowed in, and can also flow out through the open upper or lower portion of the module structure (100).
[0062] And as an example, the inflow / outflow guide (170) may be formed so that a single hole located on the inside, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, directly affects the entire plurality of blades (220) by the inflow / outflow air. That is, one end of the inflow / outflow guide (170) may be formed so that all of the plurality of blades (220) are exposed to the outside, and the first wind power generation module (200a) may have the blades (220) rotate by the air concentrated inward over a wide range.
[0063] As another example, the inlet / outlet guide (170) may be formed so that only some of the plurality of blades (220) are directly affected by the inlet / outlet air through a set of holes located on the inside, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 5. That is, one end of the inlet / outlet guide (170) may be formed so that only some of the blades (220) are exposed to the outside while being biased toward one side with the support pillar (210) as the center, and the first wind power generation module (200a) may have the blades (220) rotate by the air that is concentrated inward within a narrow range.
[0064] In the first embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the first flow path forming member (110) may be formed so that its front, back, left, and right edges slope upward toward the outside and its width increases, and the second flow path forming member (120) may be formed so that its front, back, left, and right edges slope downward toward the outside and its width increases. The rear end may be formed so that its width increases toward the rear while its rear end slopes downward. In this modular structure (100), the internal space of the front end is formed so that it gradually increases toward the front, and the internal space of the rear end is formed so that it gradually increases toward the rear, and the internal space of one end is formed so that it gradually increases toward one side, and the internal space of the other end is formed so that it gradually increases toward the other side. These first flow-forming member (110) and second flow-forming member (120) may be formed to have a planar shape having an incline in an upward or downward direction, but in order to form a smoother air flow, it is preferable to form them to have a convex curved shape toward the inside.
[0065] The module structure (100) according to the above-described first embodiment and the module structure (100) according to the first embodiment can further improve the power generation efficiency through the first wind power generation module (200a) since a fast air flow can be formed within the module structure (100).
[0066] In the first-third embodiment, the modular structure (100) may further include a fifth flow-forming member (150) that extends in at least one direction among the front-rear, back-and-forth, left-right directions from either one of the first flow-forming member (110) or the second flow-forming member (120). In addition, the wind power generation module (200) may further include a third wind power generation module (200c) in which one end of a support column (210) is coupled to the fifth flow-forming member (150) and a blade (220) is rotated by either a flow of air flowing in and out of a space between the first flow-forming member (110) and the second flow-forming member (120) or a flow of external air parallel thereto.
[0067] For example, the fifth flow path forming member (150) may be formed to extend in the left and right directions of the first flow path forming member (110), and the third wind power generation module (200c) may be coupled to the fifth flow path forming member (150) so as to be positioned on both sides of the third flow path forming member (130). In the case where the air flow is formed in the left and right directions, the blade (220) of the third wind power generation module (200c) may be rotated by the air flow flowing in and out of the space between the first flow path forming member (110) and the second flow path forming member (120), and when the air flow is formed in the front-back direction, the blade (220) may be rotated by the external air flow parallel to the air flow flowing in and out of the space between the first flow path forming member (110) and the second flow path forming member (120).
[0068] In addition, in the wind power generation structure (A) according to the first to third embodiment, it is preferable that at least the portion where the fifth flow path forming member (150) is formed among the front end, rear end, and both end portions of each of the first flow path forming member (110) and the second flow path forming member (120) is formed horizontally. In addition, the third wind power generation module (200c) may be formed to have the same size as or a different size from the first wind power generation module (200a), and a plurality of third wind power generation modules (200c) may be arranged at predetermined intervals on the fifth flow path forming member (150).
[0069] The wind power generation structure (A) according to the first to third embodiment can produce electric energy through the third wind power generation module (200c) in addition to the first wind power generation module (200a), thereby increasing the amount of power generated.
[0070] The wind power generation structure (A) according to the first embodiment, in which the modular structure (100) in which air flows are formed in the forward, backward, left, right, and up and down directions as described above, can be installed in various places such as land, sea, and city centers, and is preferably installed in a place with open sides. For example, a support can be erected on the side of a road in the city center, and the wind power generation structure (A) according to the first embodiment can be installed on the upper part of the support and on branches extending laterally from the support. In addition, the wind power generation structure (A) according to the first embodiment can further include a floating body (300) coupled to the lower side thereof and having buoyancy, and such a wind power generation structure (A) can be installed on water such as the sea or a lake. The wind power generation structures (A) according to the above examples can be installed in multiple pieces by being stacked vertically, and can produce a large amount of electric energy in a small installation space.
[0071] Meanwhile, in the case where the first wind power generation module (200a) is installed within a module structure (100) in which air flows in and out only in the forward and backward directions according to the second embodiment described above, the module structure (100) may be configured to increase the inflow of air and form a faster air flow inside than outside. For example, the module structure (100) may be configured such that the internal space of the front end gradually increases toward the front, and the internal space of the rear end gradually decreases toward the rear.
[0072] In the second embodiment, as illustrated in Fig. 7, the first flow-forming member (110) may be formed so that the front end slopes upward toward the front and the rear end slopes downward toward the rear. At this time, the second flow-forming member (120) is formed in a flat plate shape, so that the module structure (100) can be easily installed so that the second flow-forming member (120) is in close contact with another structure.
[0073] In the second embodiment, the first flow path forming member (110) may be formed so that the width thereof increases as it faces forward while the front end slopes upward toward the front, and the width thereof decreases as it faces rearward while the rear end slopes downward toward the front. In addition, the second flow path forming member (120) may be formed in a flat plate shape, and the width thereof increases as the front end faces forward, and the width thereof decreases as the rear end faces rearward.
[0074] In the second-third embodiment, the first guiding member (110) may be formed so that the front end is inclined upward toward the front and the rear end is inclined downward toward the rear, and the second guiding member (120) may be formed so that the front end is inclined downward toward the front and the rear end is inclined upward toward the rear.
[0075] In the second embodiment, as illustrated in FIG. 8, the first flow path forming member (110) may be formed so that the width thereof increases as it faces forward while the front end slopes upward toward the front, and the width thereof decreases as it faces rearward while the rear end slopes downward toward the front. In addition, the second flow path forming member (120) may be formed so that the width thereof increases as it faces forward while the front end slopes downward toward the front, and the width thereof decreases as it faces rearward while the rear end slopes upward toward the rear.
[0076] In the above-described embodiment 2-1, compared to the module structure (100) in which the first flow-forming member (110) and the second flow-forming member (120) are arranged in a flat plate shape and spaced apart from each other at a certain distance, a fast air flow is formed within the module structure (100), and in the embodiments 2-2 to 2-4, compared to the embodiment 2-1, a faster air flow is formed within the module structure (100), so that power generation efficiency can be further improved.
[0077] In the second embodiment, as illustrated in FIGS. 9 and 10, the module structure (100) may further include a fourth flow-forming member (140) that extends in at least one direction from either the first flow-forming member (110) or the second flow-forming member (120). In addition, the wind power generation module (200) may further include a second wind power generation module (200b) in which one end of a support column (210) is coupled to the fourth flow-forming member (140) and a blade (220) is rotated by a flow of external air that is parallel to a flow of air flowing in and out of a space between the first flow-forming member (110) and the second flow-forming member (120).
[0078] At this time, since the module structure (100) only allows air to flow in and out in the forward and backward directions, the second wind power generation module (200b) also rotates its blades (220) by the external air flow formed in the forward and backward direction along the longitudinal direction of the third flow path-forming member (130). Therefore, in order not to interfere with the external air flow in the forward and backward direction, it is preferable that the first flow path-forming member (110) and the second flow path-forming member (120) be formed to have a constant width as a whole. In addition, as illustrated in FIG. 10, in order to form a fast air flow within the module structure (100), the first flow path-forming member (110) may be formed so that the front end is inclined upward toward the front and the rear end is inclined downward toward the rear. In addition, the second flow path-forming member (120) may be formed so that the front end is inclined downward toward the front and the rear end is inclined upward toward the rear. And the second wind power generation module (200b) can be formed to have the same size as or a different size from the first wind power generation module (200a), and when the fourth flow path forming member (140) is formed along the longitudinal direction of the first flow path forming member (110) or the second flow path forming member (120), a plurality of second wind power generation modules (200b) can be arranged at predetermined intervals on the fourth flow path forming member (140).
[0079] The wind power generation structure (A) according to the second embodiment of the present invention can produce electric energy through the second wind power generation module (200b) in addition to the first wind power generation module (200a), thereby increasing the amount of power generated.
[0080] In the second embodiment, as illustrated in FIG. 11, the modular structure (100) may include a first inlet / outlet through which air flows in and out in the front / rear direction, and an inlet / outlet may be formed by a first flow path-forming member (110), a second flow path-forming member (120), and a third flow path-forming member (130). In addition, the first inlet / outlet may be provided with an inlet / outlet guide (170) having a cone shape in which the inside is empty, both ends located on the outside and inside are open, and the width decreases from the outside to the inside. This second embodiment may be applied not only to the basic modular structure (100) of the second embodiment, but also to the modular structures (100) of the second embodiment to the second embodiment, the second embodiment to the second embodiment.
[0081] The inlet / outlet guide (170) is symmetrically provided so as to face the first inlet / outlet at the front end of the module structure (100) and the first inlet / outlet at the rear end of the module structure (100), and allows air to flow in at a high velocity toward the inside of the module structure (100). In addition, air that has flowed into the inside of the module structure (100) can flow out to the outside through the first inlet / outlet through which no air has flowed in.
[0082] And as an example, the inflow / outflow guide (170) may be formed so that a single hole located on the inside, as illustrated in Fig. 11b, directly affects the entire plurality of blades (220) by the inflow / outflow air. That is, one end of the inflow / outflow guide (170) may be formed so that all of the plurality of blades (220) are exposed to the outside, and the first wind power generation module (200a) may have the blades (220) rotate by the air concentrated inward over a wide range.
[0083] As another example, the inlet / outlet guide (170) may be formed so that only some of the plurality of blades (220) are directly affected by the inlet / outlet air through a set of holes located on the inside, as illustrated in FIG. 11c. That is, one end of the inlet / outlet guide (170) may be formed so that only some of the blades (220) are exposed to the outside while being biased toward one side with the support pillar (210) as the center, and the first wind power generation module (200a) may have the blades (220) rotate by the air that is concentrated inward within a narrow range.
[0084] The wind power generation structure (A) according to the second embodiment, in which the modular structure (100) in which air flow is formed only in the forward-backward direction as described above is applied, can be installed in various places such as land or water, but is preferably installed in a tunnel or underpass that has a structure in which air flow is formed in one direction. For example, as illustrated in FIGS. 12 and 13, the wind power generation structure (A) according to the second embodiment can be installed on the inner wall surface of a tunnel in consideration of the direction of air flow within the tunnel, and can also be installed in a multi-stage stacking configuration to increase the amount of power generated.
[0085] Meanwhile, in the case where the first wind power generation module (200a) is installed in a module structure (100) in which air flows in and out in the forward and backward directions and left and right directions according to the third embodiment described above, the module structure (100) can be configured to increase the inflow of air and form a faster air flow inside than outside.
[0086] In the third embodiment, as illustrated in FIGS. 16 and 17, the first flow path forming member (110) may be formed so that its front, back, left, and right edges slope upward toward the outside and its width increases, and the second flow path forming member (120) may be formed so that its front, back, left, and right edges slope downward toward the outside and its width increases. In this modular structure (100), the internal space of the front end is formed to gradually increase toward the front, and the internal space of the rear end is formed to gradually increase toward the rear, and the internal space of one end is formed to gradually increase toward one side, and the internal space of the other end is formed to gradually increase toward the other side. These first flow-forming member (110) and second flow-forming member (120) may be formed to have a planar shape having an incline in an upward or downward direction, but in order to form a smoother air flow, it is preferable to form them to have a convex curved shape toward the inside.
[0087] The wind power generation structure (A) to which the module structure (100) according to the third embodiment is applied can form a fast air flow within the module structure (100) compared to the module structure (100) in which the first flow-forming member (110) and the second flow-forming member (120) are arranged in a flat plate shape and spaced apart from each other at a certain distance, even if air is introduced from all directions, so that the power generation efficiency through the first wind power generation module (200a) can be further improved.
[0088] In the third embodiment, as illustrated in FIG. 18, the module structure (100) may further include a fifth flow-forming member (150) that extends in at least one direction among the front-rear, back-and-forth, left-right directions from either one of the first flow-forming member (110) or the second flow-forming member (120). In addition, the wind power generation module (200) may further include a third wind power generation module (200c) in which one end of a support column (210) is coupled to the fifth flow-forming member (150) and a blade (220) is rotated by either a flow of air flowing in and out of a space between the first flow-forming member (110) and the second flow-forming member (120) or a flow of external air parallel thereto.
[0089] For example, the fifth flow path forming member (150) may be formed to extend in the left and right directions of the first flow path forming member (110), and the third wind power generation module (200c) may be coupled to the fifth flow path forming member (150) so as to be positioned on both sides of the third flow path forming member (130). In the case where the air flow is formed in the left and right directions, the blade (220) of the third wind power generation module (200c) may be rotated by the air flow flowing in and out of the space between the first flow path forming member (110) and the second flow path forming member (120), and when the air flow is formed in the front-back direction, the blade (220) may be rotated by the external air flow parallel to the air flow flowing in and out of the space between the first flow path forming member (110) and the second flow path forming member (120).
[0090] In addition, in the wind power generation structure (A) according to the third embodiment, it is preferable that at least the portion where the fifth flow path forming member (150) is formed among the front end, rear end, and both side ends of each of the first flow path forming member (110) and the second flow path forming member (120) is formed horizontally. In addition, the third wind power generation module (200c) may be formed to have the same size as or a different size from the first wind power generation module (200a), and a plurality of third wind power generation modules (200c) may be arranged at predetermined intervals on the fifth flow path forming member (150).
[0091] The wind power generation structure (A) according to the third embodiment of the present invention can produce electric energy through the third wind power generation module (200c) in addition to the first wind power generation module (200a), thereby increasing the amount of power generated.

In addition, the first inlet and the second inlet and outlet may be provided with an inlet and outlet guide (170) having an inner side that is hollow and open at both ends located on the outer and inner sides, and having a cone-shaped shape whose width decreases from the outer side to the inner side, as illustrated in FIGS. 19 and 20. This third embodiment may be applied not only to the basic modular structure (100) of the third embodiment, but also to the modular structures (100) of the above-described third embodiments 3-1 to 3-2.
[0093] The inlet / outlet guide (170) is provided symmetrically so as to face the first inlet / outlet at the front end of the module structure (100) and the first inlet / outlet at the rear end of the module structure (100), and is provided symmetrically so as to face the second inlet / outlet at one side of the module structure (100) and the second inlet / outlet at the other side of the module structure (100), and allows air to flow in at a high velocity toward the inside of the module structure (100). In addition, air that has flowed into the inside of the module structure (100) can flow out to the outside through the first inlet / outlet and the second inlet / outlet through which no air has flowed in.
[0094] And as an example, the inflow / outflow guide (170) may be formed so that a single hole located on the inside, as illustrated in FIG. 19, directly affects the entire plurality of blades (220) by the inflow / outflow air. That is, one end of the inflow / outflow guide (170) may be formed so that all of the plurality of blades (220) are exposed to the outside, and the first wind power generation module (200a) may have the blades (220) rotate by the air concentrated inward over a wide range.
[0095] As another example, the inlet / outlet guide (170) may be formed so that only some of the plurality of blades (220) are directly affected by the inlet / outlet air through a set of holes located on the inside, as illustrated in FIG. 20. That is, one end of the inlet / outlet guide (170) may be formed so that only some of the blades (220) are exposed to the outside while being biased toward one side with the support pillar (210) as the center, and the first wind power generation module (200a) may have the blades (220) rotate by the air that is concentrated inward within a narrow range.
