A tidal current power generation device using a Darrieus type water turbine has a float frame placed above the float that is floating on the water surface or semi-submerged below the water surface, a generator is installed on top of the float frame, and the generator is rotated. A configuration in which a Darius-type water turbine is attached to a rotating shaft that is connected to a shaft, extends below the frame, and is submerged in water is known (for example, Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 58-64867). However, in the case of a float type like this,
Installation in a location with a large tidal difference is likely to cause the float to move up and down, causing accidents with anchors and other mooring devices, which can impede ship navigation. , accidents such as failure of the equipment may occur due to the influence of floating objects, etc., and there are also disadvantages such as the inability to generate large amounts of power.

Furthermore, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 57-46068 is known as a wave power generation device that is semi-submerged in water and fixed to the seabed. However, since the upper part of this wave power generation device is exposed to the sea, it not only obstructs the navigation of ships, but also is not suitable for installation in places with large tidal differences.

0 is an important part that recovers the energy held by the fluid, and depending on the conditions of the installation location such as flow rate and water depth, the shape of the blade is determined by changing the output coefficient to the large circumferential speed ratio ( λ=ωγ/υwhere υ: liquid flow rate, γ: radius of the water wheel, ω: angular velocity of the water wheel) is 1 to 5. Efficiency is good when the flow rate is in the range of 0.25 to 0.33 m 2 /s.

Here, the wind turbine shaft output P of the Darius type wind turbine in the air is expressed by the relational expression: P=1/2ρAυ 3 μ. In the previous equation, ρ: Air density A: Wind passage area υ: Wind speed μ: Efficiency. Therefore, it is clear that the output of a wind turbine is proportional to the air density, passage area, and efficiency, and proportional to the cube of the wind speed. In a water turbine, the density of water is approximately 1000 times the density of air, so according to the above equation, even if the passing area and efficiency are the same, in order to obtain the same output P, the water speed must be approximately 1 times the wind speed. /10 is sufficient. In addition, this Darrieus type wind turbine normally has a wind speed of 4
~6m/s, whereas the water speed of natural ocean currents and river flows is 0.6
~1.0 m/s, so to obtain the same output as a wind turbine, the area through which the water passes should be about 1/3 to 1/4, and a smaller one is sufficient compared to a wind turbine, so it is possible to Foundation work for base 1 installed at the bottom of the water can be done easily.

Darrieus-type wind turbines generally have a high rotational speed, so in order to reduce the centrifugal force, the blades are band-shaped, and the radius at the blade attachment point is increased at the center of the rotation axis, and the radius is decreased at both ends of the rotation axis. (rope movement), but when used as a water turbine, the intermediate shaft 14
Since the number of rotations is also small, it is sufficient to attach the arcuate blades 17 in parallel to the intermediate shaft 14, and by increasing the area of the arcuate blades 17, the area through which water passes can be increased.

Now, if we assume that the efficiency of the Troposchien-type Darius wind turbine is 35.5% and apply that efficiency directly to the water turbine, the efficiency of the water turbine becomes 41.4%, and the output of the water turbine per unit passing area is when the water speed is 1 m/s.
It becomes 0.207kw/ cm2 . Therefore, the installation radius of the arc blade 17 of the water turbine 20 from the intermediate shaft 14 is γ = 5 m,
When the height H of the arcuate blade 17 is 5 m, the rated water speed is 1 m/
In s, a water turbine output of 10kw can be obtained. When installing the base 1, it will be a completely submerged type that fixes the base 1 at an optimal position where the water speed changes depending on the water depth, and where the water depth from the water surface does not impede the navigation of the ship.
The output from the generator 10 is used by being transmitted to the ground via a waterproof cable with high voltage resistance.

As mentioned above, in this invention, the rotating shaft that connects the Darius turbine and the speed increaser connected to the watertight generator is supported by a roller bearing at the upper end and a thrust bearing at the lower end, so that the rotation It is possible to prevent the rotating shaft from tilting with respect to the current from a direction perpendicular to the axis of the shaft, and therefore, the output of the water turbine can be efficiently transmitted to the generator without eccentric rotation of the rotating shaft. . In addition, compared to conventional float-type tidal current power generation devices, the upper part of the water turbine is 4.5 m above sea level at high tide.
By installing it at a location where it is less than ~5m, it will not be affected by waves even if the maximum tidal difference is 3m.
It does not impede the passage of small ships, prevents the effects of floating objects, etc., and has the advantage of being able to generate large amounts of power because it is installed on the seabed.
