Problems solved by technology

The disadvantages of the power generation breakwater devices mentioned in the above two patents are that the breakwater is not suitable for sea areas with large water depths, has a large dependence on the foundation, high cost, and a long construction period. The power generation device needs to be in direct contact with seawater. High requirements on anti-corrosion and sealing performance

Embodiment Construction

[0021] Such as Figure 4 As shown, the floating breakwater is anchored on the ocean surface, and the whole structure is partially submerged to ensure that the bottom of the air chamber is always below the sea level, and the air chamber is above the liquid level in the air chamber. The lower inlet of the air chamber connects the water body at the bottom of the air chamber with the seawater, and the upper part of the air chamber is air.

[0022] When the crest of the wave acts on the air chamber, the liquid level in the air chamber rises, the volume in the air chamber becomes smaller, and the air pressure increases. When the air pressure in the air chamber is greater than the external atmospheric pressure, the air is compressed and will be discharged from the air chamber through the airflow channel above the air chamber. At this time, the wave energy is converted into air kinetic energy; when the compressed air passes through the hood above the air chamber, the flow rate of the ...

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of breakwater engineering and wave power generation, in particular to a floating breakwater generation device arranged in open sea. The floating breakwater generation device comprises floating members, air turbine generator sets, air chambers, airflow passages, mooring systems and signal transmission devices, and is characterized in that the floating members are respectively connected with concrete anchor blocks at the sea bottom through anchor chains; a plurality of wave dissipating perforations penetrating through a floating body are formed in the head-sea face of each floating member; the air turbine generator sets are respectively arranged in the airflow passages; the floating bodies are driven by waves to vertically move, so that water in the air chambers vibrates and air in the air chambers is pushed to move, and the air turbine generator sets are further driven to generate electricity. The floating breakwater generation device disclosed by the invention has the characteristics of being stable in structure, low in erection cost, high in generation conversion efficiency, convenient to maintain, and the like, and can be applied to sea areas with deep water, high waves and complex terrain; while wave impacts are weakened and a steady water area environment is provided for surrounding water areas, the waves can be converted into electric energy, and the electric power supply problem of harbor district or island residents is effectively solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical fields of breakwater engineering and wave power generation, in particular to a floating breakwater power generation device arranged in the open sea. Background technique [0002] In the past 30 years, with the rapid development of deep-water berthing and deep-water oil extraction and mining operations, as well as the large-scale construction of offshore farms, the requirements for wave-proof structures have become higher and higher. Floating breakwater is a wave-proof structure that protects the internal facilities of the port or the coast. It is mainly to ensure the stability of the port and near-coastal waters, and to prevent waves from damaging port facilities and coastal erosion. It also has sand-proof, Anti-flow, anti-icing, diversion, and the inner side doubles as the function of the pier. Compared with traditional fixed breakwaters, floating breakwaters are more economical and portable; they are easy to in...
