Description

The invention relates to heat engineering, in particular to air conditioning systems using wind energy, and can be applied in rooms remote from energy supply sources.

Known piezoelectric generator containing the housing, and installed in it an annular piezoelectric transducer with electrodes and a system of deformation of the rollers connected to the shaft of the drive motor. (A.S. No. 1426391, 1988 of the USSR). A well-known generator converts electrical energy into heat. Air cooling is carried out only through additional elements.

Known heat pump on semiconductors used in the heating system according to the scheme "air-water", containing a fan for moving air and pipes for supplying and discharging low-temperature water. (N.B. Bogoslovsky, A.N. Skanavi. Heating. Textbook for high schools. M. Stroyizdat, 1991, p. 599, fig. 14.14 (c))

The well-known heat pump uses electrical energy from the network.

The closest in technical essence to the claimed solution is a thermoelectric air conditioner, including sheathed thermocouples, water and air heat pipes and a fan with an electric motor, it is made with a housing in the form of a full sectional one, composed of a set of thermoelectric cylinder packages. (A.S. USSR No. 269459, 1970). A well-known air conditioner consumes electricity from the network, it does not have enough air leakage through the air heat pipes and the limited functions of its use.

The technical result of the presented invention is the use of wind energy, autonomy and multifunctionality of application.

The technical result is achieved by the fact that the wind thermoelectric conditioner, including thermoelectric packages mounted on the frame, sheathed thermocouples, water and air heat pipes, a piezoelectric generator and a fan with a vertical shaft. According to the invention, in the lid mounted in the upper part of the frame, a piezoelectric generator is installed in the middle, which is in contact with a vertical shaft having a half-coupling in the upper part, an impeller attached to it in the middle, and a flange mounted at the bottom on top of the fan turbine hub, under which the shaft flange is freely placed. Using studs, the flanges are pulled tightly between each other through the hub, and in the frame, under the fan, a thrust bearing is installed in which the lower end of the shaft is located.

Figure 1 presents the described air conditioner; figure 2 - element thermoelectric package of the air conditioner.

The air conditioner consists of packages 1, frame 2, a fan turbine 3, and a vertical shaft 4 with a power take-off coupling half 5 from a wind turbine (not shown). In the cover 6, mounted in the upper part of the frame 2, a piezoelectric generator 7 is installed in the middle, which is in contact with the shaft 4. In the middle part of the shaft 4, an impeller 8 is attached, and a flange 9 is mounted at the bottom, which is abutted on top of the hub of the fan turbine 3. In the frame 10 (shown partially) a thrust bearing 11 is installed, in which the lower end of the shaft 4 is placed. Under the hub of the turbine 3, a flange (not shown) is freely placed on the shaft 4, which is fastened firmly with the flange 9 through the hub with the studs. The packages 1 in the air conditioner are installed the way that they image the coziness of the walls of the hollow cylinder and is firmly fixed to the frame 2. The inner hole of the cylinder coincides with the inlet of the fan turbine 3.

The element of the thermoelectronic package of the air conditioner consists of a current collector 12, a tie pin 13, an insulating washer 14, a sheathed n-conductivity thermocouple 15, a sheathed p-conductivity thermocouple 16, a water heat conduit 17 and an insulating unit 18.

In the package, the thermocouples and current collectors are connected in a single electric circuit, in which, in order to protect the switching transition between the thermocouple and the heat conductor, all the parts are pulled together with a pin 13. All elements of the package are centered on the pin. For this purpose, heat pipes and thermocouples have a central hole. The sheathed thermocouple is a circular shape in which the semi-elements of the usual type are laid, and insulating washers 14 are laid between the upper case and the lower case between them. The flowing parts of the heat pipe 17 are connected in series through the insulating units 18, which do not impede the flow of cooling water through them and at the same time, heat conductors are electrically isolated from each other. To transmit electric current through the heat conduit 17, a conductive ring is provided in its design. The piezoelectric generator 7 through wires is electrically connected to the current collectors 12 of the elements of thermoelectric packages 1.

Wind thermoelectric air conditioner operates as follows.

When sufficient wind is reached, the wind turbine starts to rotate through the coupling half 5 shaft 4, the impeller 8 and the fan turbine 3. The conditioned air is sucked through the air heat pipes of the honeycomb type under the influence of the vacuum created by the impeller 8, in which there is a cutout for the compact design of package 1 the placement of the insulating unit 18, the air is cooled and, having passed the fan turbine 3, enters the room. The electric current from the piezoelectric generator 7 is supplied to the current collectors 12, which in this case are elements that tighten all the details of the package 1 and the heat pipes.

Perhaps, in the process of developing the present invention by means of not complex improvements, it will be possible to use the Peltier thermoelectric effect and, thereby, expand the functionality of the proposed air conditioner for heating the room.

The proposed wind thermoelectric air conditioner is compact, uses wind power for its work, converts it into electricity. As a result, air is moved through the bags and the air already cooled by the fan is released into the room. It can be used at remote locations (camp sites, garden houses, nightmares, etc.).
