Description

本発明は、河川をはじめ小川や用水路等の平坦に流れに水路に浮かべて発電を行う水力発電装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a hydroelectric power generation apparatus that generates power by floating on a water channel in a flat flow such as a river, a stream, an irrigation channel, and the like.

従来、大規模水力発電や小型のマイクロ発電装置の殆どが落差水エネルギを利用するものであった。例えば、河川が流れる渓谷の山と山の間を堰き止めて大規模なダムを建設することにより大量な水を堰き止め、十分に貯水した後に高い場所から大量の落差水を放流することにより大型タービン発電機を稼働させて電力エネルギの供給を行っている。また、小規模なマイクロ発電を行う場合にも山深い渓谷を流れる川を堰き止め、そして、山の傾斜を利用して長い距離の水圧差で落差水を作り、クロスフロー水車を回して発電を行っている。また、河川の護岸工事によって落差水を発生させてクロスフロー水力発電を行うことも行われている。   Conventionally, most of large-scale hydroelectric power generation and small micro power generation devices use headwater energy. For example, a large dam is constructed by damming between the mountains of the valley where the river flows, and a large dam is built up, and a large amount of water is discharged from a high place after sufficient water storage. The turbine generator is operated to supply power energy. In addition, when small-scale micro power generation is performed, rivers flowing in deep valleys are dammed, and by using the slope of the mountain, a drop water is created with a long-distance water pressure difference, and a cross-flow turbine is turned to generate power. Is going. In addition, cross-flow hydroelectric power generation is also carried out by generating falling water by revetment work for rivers.

従来のマイクロ水力発電は、山間部を流れる渓谷の川を堰き止め、そこに長い配水管を設置して山の傾斜角を利用して流れ出る落差水をクロスフロー水車で受水して発電を行うものであり、また、河川に分岐水門を設けて人工的に落差水を発生させてクロスフロー水車によって発電するものであった。   Conventional micro hydropower generation dams a river in a valley flowing through a mountainous area, installs a long water pipe there, and receives the falling water flowing out using the slope of the mountain with a cross-flow turbine to generate electricity In addition, a diversion sluice was provided in the river to generate a drop water artificially and generate electricity with a cross-flow turbine.

ところが、このような山間部の渓谷を堰き止めたり、河川の護岸工事を行って水力発電を行う場合にはそこに生息する魚や貝などの生物の生態系を破壊することが指摘されている。また、水力発電設備は周辺の自然環境や景観が損なわれる等の問題も提起されている。さらに、水力発電設備の設置場所においては、例えば「文化財保護法」等の法令や、行政による各種の許認可が必要となり設置場所に大幅な制限が設けられている。そのため、上述したような従来工法による発電設備の普及はあまり進展していないのが現状である。   However, it has been pointed out that when such a mountain valley is dammed or river power is revetd and hydroelectric power generation is performed, the ecosystem of fish and shellfish that live there is destroyed. In addition, hydroelectric power generation equipment has also raised problems such as damage to the surrounding natural environment and landscape. Furthermore, the installation location of hydroelectric power generation facilities is subject to laws and regulations such as the “Cultural Property Protection Law” and various permits and approvals by the government, and there are significant restrictions on the installation location. Therefore, the current situation is that the diffusion of power generation facilities by the conventional method as described above has not progressed much.

しかしながら、2011年3月11日に発生した東日本大震災は原子力発電所の事故を誘発して電力不足を招いたことから、再生可能エネルギを利用した発電が注目され、マイクロ水力発電についても再確認がなされている。例えば特許文献1にはダム建設の必要がなく、生態系や自然環境及び景観を損なうことがない環境にやさしい発電装置が開示されている。具体的には、水車が所定の間隔を置いて略水平に一列に複数個設けられた水車モジュールと、水車の下側の羽にのみ河川水流があたるように、水車モジュールの設置高さを可変する昇降機構を有する構成としたものである。   However, since the Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred on March 11, 2011 induced an accident at a nuclear power plant and caused a power shortage, power generation using renewable energy attracted attention, and micro hydropower generation was also reconfirmed. Has been made. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses an environment-friendly power generation device that does not require dam construction and that does not damage the ecosystem, natural environment, and landscape. Specifically, the installation height of the water turbine module is variable so that the water turbines are provided only in a row with a plurality of water turbines arranged in a row substantially horizontally at a predetermined interval, and the river water flow is applied only to the lower wings of the water turbine. It is set as the structure which has the raising / lowering mechanism to perform.

しかしながら、特許文献1をはじめとする従来法における平板形状のクロスフローの固定式水車の場合、幅の広い水車で受水することにより大きな水圧で水車を回転させるが、回転する水車の反対側の全面にも水を掻き分ける時に発生する水圧抵抗がかるために水車の受水により発生した回転トルクが相殺されてしまい、効率が良くないという問題があった。特に、平坦に流れる河川では水車を回転させるためのエネルギの損失は十分な回転トルクを得るためにも避けたいところである。   However, in the case of a flat-plate-shaped cross-flow fixed water turbine in the conventional method including Patent Document 1, the water turbine is rotated with a large water pressure by receiving water with a wide water turbine, but on the opposite side of the rotating water turbine. Since water pressure resistance generated when water is scraped over the entire surface, the rotational torque generated by receiving water from the water turbine is offset, and there is a problem that efficiency is not good. In particular, in a river that flows flat, the loss of energy for rotating the water turbine is to be avoided in order to obtain sufficient rotational torque.

そこで、本発明はかかる問題点に鑑みなされたもので、川を堰き止めたり、河川の護岸工事等の大規模な建設工事を必要とせず、また、魚や貝が生息する生態系をはじめとする自然環境や景観を破壊することがなく、しかも、発電効率の良い水力発電装置を提供することを目的とする。   Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of such problems, and does not require damming rivers or large-scale construction work such as river bank protection work, and also includes ecosystems where fish and shellfish live. An object of the present invention is to provide a hydroelectric power generation device that does not destroy the natural environment and the landscape and has high power generation efficiency.

Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of a hydroelectric generator according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
[First embodiment]
The hydroelectric generator generally generates power by rotating a rotor (not shown) of a generator 11 mounted on the catamaran float 1 by a water wheel attached to the catamaran float 1 floating on a running water such as an irrigation channel, a stream or a river. Is to do. The catamaran float 1 is integrally formed by a front passing fixing plate 3 and a rear passing fixing plate 4 which are provided with floats on the left and right sides and connect the left and right floats. And the rotating shaft 10 provided with the bearing holder 5 is arrange | positioned in the center part of a pair of float of this double cylinder float 1. As shown in FIG. In addition, between the front passing fixing plate 3 and the rear passing fixing plate 4 of the catamaran float 1, water turbines including a plurality of hood variable water turbines 9 are arranged in two rows. This water wheel comprises a rotating hub 13 formed by a ring-shaped outer frame and a radiating frame 14 arranged radially from the center of rotation, and a rotor (not shown) of a generator 11 is connected to the rotating shaft 10 of the rotating hub 13. ing. The generator 11 is prevented from entering water by the waterproof cover 12. The generator 11 is provided with a rotation amplification device (not shown) that amplifies the rotation of the water turbine and rotates the rotor. For example, the power generation efficiency can be increased 30 to 60 times by interposing a rotation amplifying device that rotates the rotor 30 to 60 times when the rotating hub 13 rotates once.

回転ハブ13の回転部中心から放射状に延びる幅広の放射フレーム14の両面にはヒンジ機構15と開放過剰防止板16を備えた複数のフード可変水車9が取り付けられている。フード可変水車9は、図10及び図11に示すように、一対の受水保持板34,34を組み合わせると共に受水保持板34にフード可変水車9の開口幅を規制する開放過剰防止ストッパ38を設けることにより受水回転時には広く開口して流水を受け止め、さらに水車本体の強力な押圧の回転力を推進するために水中で開放していたフード可変水車が瞬時に水車前面に係る水圧で開口部を閉じるように可変するように形成されている。これにより、水車は水圧抵抗が軽減された状態で回転する。すなわち、回転ハブ13の上部から受水方向に向かって回転しながら下降する直前に全て閉じた状態であったフード可変水車9は受水保持板34,34の自重で広く開口し、その状態での受水を繰り返す。これにより、水圧抵抗を軽減させて水車を回転させるので効率的に発電が行なわれる。   A plurality of hood variable turbines 9 having hinge mechanisms 15 and over-opening prevention plates 16 are attached to both surfaces of a wide radiating frame 14 extending radially from the center of the rotating portion of the rotating hub 13. As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the hood variable water turbine 9 combines a pair of water receiving and holding plates 34, 34 and is provided with an excessive opening prevention stopper 38 that restricts the opening width of the hood variable water turbine 9 on the water receiving holding plate 34. By installing, the hood variable turbine that was opened wide in the water receiving rotation to receive flowing water and further opened in water to promote the strong pressing rotational force of the turbine body is instantaneously opened by the water pressure on the front of the turbine It is formed to be variable so as to be closed. As a result, the water turbine rotates in a state where the hydraulic resistance is reduced. That is, the hood variable turbine 9 that was closed immediately before being lowered while rotating in the water receiving direction from the upper part of the rotating hub 13 opens widely due to the weight of the water receiving holding plates 34 and 34, and in this state. Repeat receiving water. As a result, the hydraulic resistance is reduced and the water turbine is rotated, so that power generation is performed efficiently.

また、水車の前方側で双胴フロート1の喫水線の近くの適宜の箇所であって水面近くの水中に位置するようにして波高発生突起6が配置されている。また、波高発生突起6の左右の両端側には幅寄せ波高板7がそれぞれ配置され、水車に流れる波高水流を効果的に発生させるようになっている。流水が波高発生突起6の上を通過する際に流水面を***させ、流水が波高発生突起6を乗り越える際に大きな落差急流を発生させて水車を回転させる。また、波高発生突起6に向かって流水が流れ込むように案内する板状の幅寄せ波高板7,7がさらに設けられている。例えば、河川の流速1.2mのときに水圧8t前後の安定した水力エネルギを利用することができる。   Further, the wave height generating projection 6 is arranged at an appropriate position near the waterline of the catamaran float 1 on the front side of the water wheel and in the water near the water surface. In addition, width-shifting wave height plates 7 are respectively disposed on the left and right ends of the wave height generating projection 6 so as to effectively generate a wave height water flow flowing through the water turbine. When the flowing water passes over the wave height generating protrusion 6, the water surface is raised, and when the flowing water gets over the wave height generating protrusion 6, a large drop rapid current is generated to rotate the water wheel. Further, plate-like width-shifting wave height plates 7 and 7 for guiding the flowing water to flow toward the wave height generating protrusion 6 are further provided. For example, stable hydraulic energy having a water pressure of about 8 t can be used when the river has a flow velocity of 1.2 m.

双胴フロート1には防水蓋付き収納ケース17が設置され、バッテリー等の収納に利用される。また、双胴フロート1の船底には車輪18,18が取り付けられており双胴フロート1を移動する際に利用される。さらに、双胴フロート1の先頭部に流くる落ち葉等の浮遊物を除去するためのゴミ除去バンパー19が取り付けられている。   The catamaran float 1 is provided with a storage case 17 with a waterproof lid, which is used for storing a battery or the like. Further, wheels 18 and 18 are attached to the bottom of the catamaran float 1 and are used when the catamaran float 1 is moved. Further, a dust removal bumper 19 is attached to remove floating substances such as fallen leaves flowing at the head of the double-bottle float 1.

発電機11と水車を搭載した双胴フロート1は、河川等の流水上に浮かべられて発電に供されるが、双胴フロート1を流れの所定位置に留めるために、河川から離れた陸上の両岸に立設された図示しないアンカー鉄塔に架け渡された固定ワイヤ22に電動移動する配電器具付きの牽引移動滑車23を取り付けた安定維持装置を備えている。そして、双胴フロート1の左右のフロートに立設された柱21,21に取り付けられた図示しない防水ソケット介して発電機11によって発電された電力は配線20,20によって牽引移動滑車23内の配電器具に供給されるようになっている。そして、配電器具には配線ケーブル25が接続されており、電力は配線ケーブル25によって陸上に設置された配電盤に供給される。   The catamaran float 1 mounted with the generator 11 and the water wheel is floated on the running water of a river or the like and used for power generation. In order to keep the catamaran float 1 in a predetermined position in the flow, A stability maintaining device is provided with a pulling moving pulley 23 with a power distribution device that is electrically moved to a fixed wire 22 erected on an anchor tower (not shown) standing on both banks. The power generated by the generator 11 through a waterproof socket (not shown) attached to the pillars 21 and 21 erected on the left and right floats of the double trunk float 1 is distributed in the traction movable pulley 23 by the wires 20 and 20. It is supplied to the instrument. And the distribution cable 25 is connected to the power distribution apparatus, and electric power is supplied by the distribution cable 25 to the switchboard installed on the land.

また、牽引移動滑車23の下部から延びる2本の牽引ワイヤ26,26が双胴フロート1に取り付けられた左右の懸架金具8,8と連結されており、これによって双胴フロート1は河川等の流水上に浮かべられた所定位置に留まるようになっている。また、牽引移動滑車23の左右の牽引フックには牽引ワイヤ26が取り付けられており、これによって牽引移動滑車23を両岸のうちのいずれかに引き寄せることができるようになっている。これにより、双胴フロート1は、台風等によって河川が増水するような場合には陸地の安全な場所に引き上げることができる。また、河川の上流で降った雨等で増水した場合や、長い間の晴天が続き河川が渇水して水位が下がった場合であっても双胴フロート1は着水位置の調整を行うことができる。   In addition, two pulling wires 26, 26 extending from the lower portion of the pulling moving pulley 23 are connected to the left and right suspension brackets 8, 8 attached to the catamaran float 1, so that the catamaran float 1 is connected to a river or the like. It stays in place on the running water. In addition, traction wires 26 are attached to the left and right traction hooks of the traction moving pulley 23 so that the traction movement pulley 23 can be drawn to either of the two banks. Thereby, the catamaran float 1 can be pulled up to a safe place on land when the river is flooded by a typhoon or the like. Even if the water level increases due to rain that falls upstream of the river, or when the water level drops due to a long period of clear weather, the catamaran float 1 can adjust the landing position. it can.

フロート29の中央部には発電機11が搭載され、その両側に2つの水車が配置されている。水車は、上述した第一の実施形態とほぼ同様の構成を備えているが、本実施形態ではフレーム状の回転ハブ13の代わりに円盤状の回転盤33を備えており、この回転盤33に一対の受水保持板34,34によって形成されるフード可変水車9が放射状に取り付けられている。尚、フード可変水車9の動作及び機能は第一の実施形態の場合と同じである。   A generator 11 is mounted at the center of the float 29, and two water turbines are arranged on both sides thereof. The water wheel has substantially the same configuration as that of the first embodiment described above, but in this embodiment, a disk-shaped rotating disk 33 is provided instead of the frame-shaped rotating hub 13. A hood variable turbine 9 formed by a pair of water receiving and holding plates 34, 34 is attached in a radial pattern. The operation and function of the hood variable water turbine 9 are the same as those in the first embodiment.

フロート29とその左右に配置された水車を取り囲むようにして保護用のバンパー33が配置されている。また、このバンパー33の所定位置には側面車輪31を備えており、用水路27の護岸との接触等による水車の破損防止が図られている。また、発電機11によって発電された電力は配線26を介してアンカー鉄柱28に設けられた配電盤32に送られるようになっている。尚、いうまでもないが波高発生突起6及び幅寄せ波高板7も設けられている。   A protective bumper 33 is disposed so as to surround the float 29 and the water turbines disposed on the left and right sides thereof. Further, a side wheel 31 is provided at a predetermined position of the bumper 33 to prevent damage to the water turbine due to contact of the water channel 27 with the seawall. In addition, the electric power generated by the generator 11 is sent via a wiring 26 to a switchboard 32 provided on the anchor iron pole 28. Needless to say, a wave height generating projection 6 and a width-shifting wave plate 7 are also provided.

[第三の実施形態]
次に、第三の実施形態について説明する。第三の実施形態における水力発電装置は、フード可変水車9に代えて、図12及び図13に示すクロスフロー可変水車を用いて構成されている。それ以外の構成は上述した第一及び第二の実施形態とほぼ同様である。クロスフロー可変水車は、二枚の円盤状の回転盤の間に円筒状の回転ドラム37を挟み、回転ドラム37の回転軸に発電機11の図示しないロータと連結されている。そして、回転ドラム37の周面に沿って放射状に湾曲板36,36が複数配置されている。湾曲板36は、基端側がヒンジ機構により回転盤に揺動可能に取り付けられており、回転盤には湾曲版36の揺動を規制する開放過剰防止ストッパ38及び保持ストッパ39が各湾曲板36に対応して複数取り付けられている。これによって湾曲板36の揺動が規制されるようになっている。すなわち、湾曲板36が流水を受水する際には先端が開放過剰防止ストッパ38に当接するまで拡開して流水を受け止め、回転後半にあっては湾曲板36が保持ストッパ39に当接して閉じて回転方向から受ける水圧抵抗を削減するようになっている。尚、このクロスフロー可変水車は第一の実施形態の双胴フロート1及び第二の実施形態のフロート29のいずれの水力発電装置にも用いることができる。
[Third embodiment]
Next, a third embodiment will be described. The hydroelectric generator in the third embodiment is configured using a cross flow variable water turbine shown in FIGS. 12 and 13 in place of the hood variable water turbine 9. Other configurations are substantially the same as those of the first and second embodiments described above. In the crossflow variable water turbine, a cylindrical rotating drum 37 is sandwiched between two disk-shaped rotating disks, and a rotating shaft of the rotating drum 37 is connected to a rotor (not shown) of the generator 11. A plurality of curved plates 36 and 36 are arranged radially along the circumferential surface of the rotating drum 37. The curved plate 36 is attached to the rotating disk by a hinge mechanism so that the base end side is swingable. An excessive opening prevention stopper 38 and a holding stopper 39 for restricting the swinging of the curved plate 36 are attached to each rotating plate 36. A plurality of units are attached to correspond. As a result, the swing of the curved plate 36 is restricted. That is, when the curved plate 36 receives flowing water, the curved plate 36 expands until the tip abuts against the over-opening prevention stopper 38 to receive the flowing water, and the curved plate 36 contacts the holding stopper 39 in the latter half of the rotation. It is designed to reduce the hydraulic resistance received from the direction of rotation when closed. This cross flow variable turbine can be used for any of the hydroelectric generators of the double-bottle float 1 of the first embodiment and the float 29 of the second embodiment.

上記構成により、平坦な流水上に浮かべた水力発電装置は波高三角突起6と幅寄せ波高板7によって水流が波高三角突起6を乗り越える際に水面が盛り上がって生じる落差急流によりクロスフロー可変水車が回転して効率的な発電が行なわれる。   With the above configuration, the hydraulic power generation apparatus floated on the flat running water rotates the cross flow variable water turbine due to the rapid drop generated when the water surface rises by the wave height triangular protrusion 6 and the width-shifting wave height plate 7 and the water surface rises. Thus, efficient power generation is performed.

本発明の水力発電装置は平坦な流れの河川や小川、用水路等に浮かべて効率的な発電ができるので、広い耕作地の未電化地域に多く点在するビニールハウスの夜間照明やビニールハウスによるLED電照栽培の電力として利用することができる。しかも、この電力はクリーンな再生可能エネルギである。   The hydroelectric power generator of the present invention floats on a flat stream of rivers, streams, irrigation canals, etc., so that it can generate power efficiently. It can be used as electric power for electric lighting cultivation. Moreover, this power is clean renewable energy.
