The technical field is as follows:

a timing falling type tidal energy collecting device operating in a floating barrel tower belongs to the technical field of energy.

Background art:

in modern times where environmental protection is important, pollution-free renewable energy is particularly important to people. Ocean tidal energy is a huge pollution-free renewable energy source. However, tidal energy collection is difficult due to slow changes in the rising and falling tides. There is an urgent need in the society for a device that can efficiently collect tidal energy.

The tower foundation is located on a water bottom soil layer, tower legs are arranged on the tower foundation and connected with the lower end of the working tower, the working tower is cylindrical, a tower top cover is arranged at the upper end of the working tower, and the tower top cover is provided with a traction rope hole and an inspection opening; a floating barrel is arranged in the working tower, the floating barrel is in a closed cylindrical shape, the lower part of the floating barrel is in a conical shape, the top of the floating barrel is connected with a hanging ring, the hanging ring is connected with a traction rope, the traction rope passes through a traction rope hole and is fixed on a winding drum through a fixed pulley, and the winding drum is fixed on a main shaft; the main shaft is provided with a brake, an energy output wheel and a clock spring type spring device, the main shaft is connected with a bracket in a bearing mode, and the bracket is fixed on the tower top cover; the brake is connected with the timing switch and the power supply through a lead; the fixed pulley is fixed on the bracket of the fixed pulley, and the bracket of the fixed pulley is fixed on the tower top cover; water bodies are arranged inside and outside the working tower, and the water levels inside and outside the working tower are consistent through the channels among the tower legs; the weight of the floating bucket is slightly less than the weight of the volume of the drained water, and the floating bucket can float on the upper part of the water body.

When the water body rises tide from the lowest water level, the floating barrel rises along with the rising water level under the action of buoyancy; at the moment, the timing switch is in an off state, the circuit is not conducted, and the brake does not work; the clock spring type spring device is in a relaxed state, drives the main shaft and the winch roller to rotate, and tightens the traction rope; when the water level of the water body reaches the highest tide water level, the timing switch is closed, the circuit is conducted, and the brake is started to work, so that the main shaft and the winch drum stop rotating; the traction rope pulls the floating barrel to be in a static state; when tide falls, the water level of the water body is reduced, and the floating barrel is still suspended at the position of the highest water level; when the tide falls to the lowest water level, the timing switch disconnects the circuit, the brake gate stops working, and the floating bucket quickly falls to the lowest water level of the water body under the action of gravity; the floating barrel drives a traction rope, the traction rope drives the winch roller and the main shaft to rapidly rotate, and the main shaft drives the clock spring device to tighten and the energy output wheel to rapidly rotate; the energy output wheel outputs mechanical energy generated by the rapid landing of the floating barrel; when the tide starts to rise again, the above operation is repeated. Because the time interval between the rising of the tide from the lowest water level to the highest water level and the falling of the tide from the highest water level to the lowest water level is fixed, namely the rising and falling tide cycle is fixed, the timing switch cannot be operated by mistake.
