Definitions
- the invention concerns a device for transformation and use of excessive kinetic and potential energy in deceleration/braking of moving bodies for production of electric power, which can be advantageously used in transport communications.
- the contemporary approaches to electric power production are mostly based on thermal, hydro-electric, and nuclear power plants.
- there are other forms of electric power production which make use of solar energy, wind-energy, bioenergy, etc.
- a common feature of these approaches is that the produced power (thermal or nuclear power plants) or the natural energy (solar energy, wind-energy) is transformed into electric power that can be effectively distributed and used.
- the power is transformed directly, or by transmissions connected to a machine producving electricity, i.e., a generator.
- the transmissions are connected to the electric power distribution system through an interconnecting line.
- a crucial disadvantage of these systems consists in high investments in providing an appropriate input form for the generator.
- the above mentioned advantages are incorporated in the method and the device for transformation and use of excessive kinetic and potential energy in deceleration/braking of moving bodies for production of electric power.
- the gist of the design consists in applying kinetic and potential energy to a guided spring-loaded module located in the operation area of a transport communication, alternatively with complete stop of a moving body, which in this way sets the spring-loaded module in motion along the path, and the motion is transferred mechanically, pneumatically, or hydraulicaily through a transmission point to a transformation module connected to a transformation power block - a generator, and the generator is by accumulation connected to direct consumption and/or to the mains.
- the device designed for this purpose consists of a transport communication in the operation area, including the guided spring-loaded module which is connected to the transmission point, and the latter is connected to the transformation module which is connected to the generator, and the generator is connected to the accumulator block which is connected by a line to consumption or to direct use.
- the design advantage consists in its simplicity. In the former designs, the braking and deceleration energy was transformed to brake friction and heat, which represented unexploited energy. Moreover, the proposed device, primarily designed for road traffic, will positively affect safety of traffic. It may substitute for cumbersome decelerating retarders, and can be widely used before road bends, intersections, no access zones, and at all places requiring vehicle speed regulation. Furthermore, the device can be used for other kinds of controlled transfer of bodies.
- Figure 1 represents a general design based on a block connection.
- Figure 2 represents a mechanical variant of the spring-loaded module.
- Figure 3 provides an overall design, including a specific variant of the mechanical transmission point.
- Figure 4 provides a specific design of a pneumatic and/or hydraulic spring-loaded module.
- Figure 5 represents a pneumatic or hydraulic variant of the invention-based design.
- the method and the device for transformation and use of excessive kinetic and potential energy in deceleration/braking of moving bodies 10 for production of electric power includes at least one spring-loaded module_2_ which extends to the transport communication I, and forms its integral part. If the transport communicationj . is a road, the set of modules_2 is located in the lanes. Apart from main roads, the notion of transport communicationj, also includes secondary roads and makeshift roads, access roads, and car-parks, and also pipe transportation systems, and various transfer and guide systems for moving bodies.
- the spring-loaded module_2 is available in a number of variants, and its mechanical variant consists of a pendulum attachment to the transport communication.!, for example, by means of the 1.1 joint, and its moving part is connected to the flexible element 1.2.
- the spring- loaded module_2 is connected to the transmission point_3 whose one particular variant consists of the lever 3.1 with pendulum (rotary) attachment of its one end to the spring- loaded module_2, and rotary attachment of the other end to the eccentric 3.2 rotary-mounted on a fixed support - a base or a frame if possible.
- the transmission point_3 is connected to the transformation module_4, if possible by means of the disengaging coupling 4.1 whose one part is connected to the eccentric 3.2 and the other part to the wheel 4.2, and if the transport communicationj .
- each module is connected to the wheel 4.2 through its respective disengaging coupling 4.1, and the wheels are interconnected by the connecting element 4.3 which is independently connected to the flywheel 4.4, or the function of the flywheel 4.4 is taken over by one of the wheels 4.2 of the transformation module_4 which is connected to the electric transformation block_5 which, in one particular variant, is represented by a dynamo, or an alternator, i.e. a device generating electric power.
- the electric transformation block_5 is advantageously connected to the accumulator blockjS which is connected to the electric power distribution system of required parameters, or directly to a consumption unit.
- the pneumatic or the hydraulic one is provided with the spring-loaded module_2 consisting of the fixed contact surface 2.3 corresponding with and extending to the transport communication 1, and the closed flexible chamber 2.4, including the input 2.5 and the output 2.6, is under the contact surface 2.3, and the bottom of the closed flexible chamber 2.4 is provided with the lower support surface 2.7, or the closed flexible chamber 2.4 rests directly on the road bed_L
- the input 2.5 of the closed flexible chamber 2.4 is provided with the input control pressure point 2.51, and the input 2.6 is provided with the output control pressure point 2.61.
- the spring-loaded module_2 of this variant is fitted with the flexible element 2.2 inside the closed flexible chamber 2.4 whose output 2.6 is connected to the accumulator vessel _7 connected to the transformation module_4, such as a turbine, which is connected to the transformation power block, the generator_5, and the generator ⁇ is connected to the accumulator block_6.
- the transmission point_3 of this variant consists of the input 2.5, including the input control pressure point 2.51, and the output 2.6, including the output control pressure point 2.61 connected to the accumulator vessel _7.
- the moving bodv 10 impacts the spring-loaded module_2, thus shifting the module_2 to its lower limit position. Further motion of the body 10 results in relieving the module and reducing the pressure applied to the module. As a result, the module is returned to its initial position by a flexible element whose dimensioning enables its force to be considerably lower than the energy applied by the momentum of the moving bodv 10 during its contact with the spring-loaded module; however, the force is sufficient for fast and effective return of the module to its initial position.
- Each such contact of the body moving along the individual modules _2 produces work and transfers excessive energy which is captured, transformed, and accumulated.
- the module which comes into contact with the moving body whose excessive energy is to be captured, is filled with medium at every return stroke - after depressing and subsequent releasing by the flexible element.
- the medium completes the presssure tank volume at every depression, and maintains its pressure by means of control pressure points, and the accumulated pressure of the directed medium is transferred to turbine rotation, etc., which sets in motion the alternator shaft, etc., which produces electric power.
- the electric power which has been gained from the excessive energy unexploited before, is then accumulated and distributed for further use.
- This principle makes it possible to apply an open system, i.e., drawing-in air and/or water from external environment, and its subsequent releasing, or a closed system which is based on pumping the medium from a hydraulic tank, and when the hydraulic tank's energy is made use of in the circuit, it is returned back to the tank for re-use.
