MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[0341] Hereafter, the embodiments of the present invention are explained based on FIG. 1-FIG. 9.

[0342] Self-Supply of Driving Power

[0343] FIG. 1 is a conceptual diagram of the method for performing self-supply of driving power using electric power.

[0344] Gravity 1 is the downward force toward the center of the earth. In the power generation device 2, the liquid 3 and the float 5 are contained, and in the liquid 3 subjected to the action of the gravity 1, the pressure works in all directions. Since the pressure acts perpendicularly to the object surface, it acts as an upward force 4 at the bottom of the float 5. This is the buoyancy.

[0345] To start up the power generation device 2, electric power 15 of the battery 14 is used. The float 5 having the buoyancy is led to the up-and-down motion 6 by the liquid pressure operation method (0021), and the power 7 is generated. The dynamo 8 is driven by the power 7 to generate electricity, and a part of the generated electric power 9 is adjusted to electric power suitable for a drive, by a device (transformer, rectifier, charger, start, stop, or the like) 11 for controlling the driving power. The power generation device 2 is driven by the transformed and rectified electric power 12, or by the electric power 15 charged in the battery 14.

[0346] Driving power is not necessarily self-sufficient. The purpose is to be able to obtain an amount of power that exceeds the input driving power and still allows industrial use, and for this purpose, various power sources should be prepared and selected appropriately. The driving power control device that selects and controls the driving power is described in claim 2.

[0347] Power generation device using liquid level increase-decrease method FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram of minimum fluid and square-cube law which are grounds for realization of the relation of generated power>driving power, and a conceptual diagram of the power generation device using the liquid level increase-decrease method based on the principle of the minimum fluid, and an explanation on the bellows-in-gap is shown.

[0348] When a device; i.e., a float stored in a container is installed along a river and the running water of the river is poured in the container, the float will go up. When the pouring is stopped and the water is drained from the container, the float will descend. Although it is very simple structure, power generated. This depends, as an energy source, on natural running water, and belongs to renewable energy. However, with this composition, a big merit cannot necessarily be referred to, when compared with turbine type running water power generation.

[0349] The power generation device using the power generation method is configured to generate the power by an operation of the liquid as little as possible, i.e., the minimum fluid, as an ideal, and to realize the relation of generated power>driving power. The device for reducing the fluid is the bellows-in-gap 31 (0013).

[0350] In claim 4, the power generation device using the liquid level increase-decrease method is indicated. Since the liquid in the container is reduced by the bellows-in-gap 31, the liquid level is increased or decreased by slightly increasing or decreasing the amount of liquid. As a method of increasing or decreasing the liquid level, in addition to a circulation method in which liquid is injected 33, discharged 34, and the discharged liquid is injected again, a method, in which the liquid amount is increased or decreased in a pseudo manner, namely, an object is inserted into or removed from the liquid, is also effective. If composite bellows 26 is used, the amount of liquid is further reduced and the efficiency becomes high.

[0351] In claim 5, an electricity generator using running water is described. The electricity generator has one side of renewable energy. As in claim 4, the required amount of water has been drastically reduced, the float goes downward by the slight water draining 34, and the float goes upward by the slight water pouring 33. Even when the running water is depleted, the electricity generator can be driven by the circulation of water remaining in the container. Therefore, it does not depend on natural conditions, there are no constraints on installation place and operation time. The movement of the float up and down is regulated by a guide rail.

[0352] Fluid Specific Gravity Increase-Decrease Method and Liquid Pressure Reduction Operation

[0353] FIG. 3 is a conceptual diagram of a method of moving a float by injecting bubbles into the liquid to increase or decrease the specific gravity of the liquid.

[0354] In claim 6, the electricity generator using the fluid specific gravity increase-decrease method is described.

[0355] At the bottom of the float 38 moving up-and-down, the bubbles 40 are injected with the injection device 39. The liquid at the bottom becomes a liquid mass containing bubbles, the specific gravity decreases, the buoyancy generated in the float 38 decreases, and the float 38 goes downward 41. When the injection is stopped, bubbles are discharged, the buoyancy is restored, and the float 38 goes upward. In the case of the float moving up-and-down, the injection and the injection stop is repeated.

[0356] Instead of bubbles 40, air may be injected at the bottom of the float to intercept the contact between the float and the liquid. Combined use of bubble injection and air injection is effective.

[0357] In Claim 8, the power generation device using the liquid pressure reduction operation of the liquid pressure imbalance method is described. The bubbles 44 are injected using the injection device 43 to the float 42 to be rotated. In the case of a rotary type float, injection is performed continuously. Combined use of bubble injection and air injection is efficient.

[0358] The basic composition of the device according to claims 6 and 8 are a float and an injection device, and very simple, and can be installed not only inside a container but also in a lake or in a sea. Therefore, it is possible to increase the size. The larger the size, the larger the output compared with the driving power by the square cubic law (0015). In the sea, it is easy to install float of about 1 million cubic meters, and the generated buoyancy reaches about 1 million tons.

[0359] Gap Operation Type Float

[0360] FIG. 4 is an explanatory view of the liquid pressure interception method and a conceptual diagram of the gap operation type float.

[0361] Buoyancy does not occur in the piers built in the river flow. As described The buoyancy can be defined as the upward force by the fluid which acts on the bottom of the object in the fluid in the gravitational field (0008), there is no bottom that receives the upward pressure of the liquid. Conversely, even if the bottom exists, if no upward pressure of liquid acts on the bottom, buoyancy also does not occur.

[0362] A Gap Operation Type Float is Described in Claim 7.

[0363] Where the orifice 56 is opened wide, upward liquid pressure acts on the bottom of the float upper part 49. That is, buoyancy has arisen. If the orifice 56 is closed, the liquid pressure conduction is intercepted, buoyancy will be extinguished, the float upper part 49 will go downward and the float lower part 50 will contract simultaneously.

[0364] At this time, if the bellows-in-gap 57 do not exist in the gap, the float lower part 50 cannot be contracted because the inside is filled with the liquid 51. However, since the float upper portion 49 pushes down the bellows-in-gap 57 and the bellows-in-gap 57 contracts while discharging 58 the air inside, the lower portion 50 of the float can contract without changing the amount of the liquid 51.

[0365] If the orifice 56 is opened, the float upper part 49 recovers buoyancy again, it goes upward while expanding the float lower part 50, and simultaneously the bellows-in-gap 57 also will be elongated while inhaling 58 air inside.

[0366] The float lower part 50 is expanded and contracted, by the bellows structure 52, or by the cylinder structure made of combination of the inner pipe 54 of the float lower part and the outer case 55 which forms a gap. The cylinder is equipped with the sealing mechanism 53.

[0367] The gap operation type float uses very simple operation method of opening and closing of an orifice, and driving power is very small. Therefore, it can be driven with mechanism (automatic machine) which closes the orifice in the final stage of the rise of the float upper part, and opens in the final stage of the descent of that, using a mechanical method like lever operation.

[0368] Rotary Type Float

[0369] FIG. 5 is a conceptual diagram of the device using the rotary type float and its principle, i.e., imbalance immersion.

[0370] Should not be bound by the stereotype that a float floats. In the present invention, the float is a tool for capturing the fluid pressure in the upward direction.

[0371] The rotary type float is indicated to Claim 8.

[0372] The gas interception (0043) of the liquid pressure interception operation is a method injecting a air with an arc-shaped injection device (43) close to the rotary type float (42) to intercept contact between the rotary type float and the liquid, and is similar with the above liquid pressure reduction operation (FIG. 3).

[0373] The imbalance immersion is a method that does not use driving power at all. The rotary type float 66 filled with the same liquid as the liquid 68 is installed in the container 67 aiming at imbalance immersion, and the liquid 68 is only filled in the predetermined portion. In the figure, the left-hand side of the float 66 is immersed, and left-hand side has no weight due to the buoyancy 69. On the other hand, the right-hand side of the float is not immersed, a torque 71 is generated by the weight 70, and a float rotates clockwise. The method 72 of combining two rotary type floats is also effective.

[0374] In this method leakage becomes a problem. A method to seal the gap between the float and the container is necessary. Using mercury for the liquid is extremely effective.

[0375] Wired Aircraft

[0376] FIG. 6 is a conceptual diagram of the moving type wired aircraft and the fixed-position type wired aircraft using the stationary type wire and the floated type wire. It is a fixed idea to lay the power transmission line on the ground with a steel tower. If there is a trolleybus, a trolley airplane is also possible.

[0377] The electric power supply 75 (sic) uses the electricity generator of the present invention, the power network in which the electricity generator of the present invention is interconnected, and the stationary type wire. It is possible to transmit electric power from stationary type wire to stationary type wire 73 (sic) or floated type wire 76 (sic). The stationary type wire 73 (sic) connected to the electric power supply 75 (sic) is installed on the ground or a building by fixtures such as wire pillars 74 (sic). The moving type wired aircraft 79 (sic) flying at a relatively low speed flies with power from the stationary type wire 73 (sic) using the stationary type electricity collecting device 80 (sic) or the electricity collecting drone 81 (sic).

[0378] Since the electric power by the power generation device of the present invention, is low cost very much, the low-voltage power transmission with a large transmission loss is also admissible. Since it is low-voltage, it can install in a living area. By laying the low-voltage stationary type wires in various separate places, the moving type wired aircraft can move long distance as if frog jumping by repetition of flight by electricity collecting and self flight by battery.

[0379] The floated type wire 76 (sic) is constructed in air by the wire support aircraft 77 (sic), while supporting the wire which is linked to the electric power supply 75 (sic). The moving type wired aircraft 78 (sic) flies while collecting electricity form the floated type wire 76 (sic) using the electricity collecting drone 81 (sic).

[0380] The floated type wire 76 (sic) does not necessarily have to be continuous to the destination. The floated type wire is dotted in the flight path, and the moving type wired aircraft 78 (sic) can reach the destination while flying by the frog jumping.

[0381] The fixed-position type wired aircraft 82 (sic) is hanging the floated type wire 76 (sic) connected to the electric power supply 75 (sic), staying at a regular position, performs business. Or it is possible to fly within the wired area by collecting electricity from the hung floated type wire 76 (sic) using the electricity collecting device 81 (sic). When the wire is long, it can be supported by the wire support aircraft 77.

[0382] Even with fixed position type, it is possible to hang the electricity generator of the present invention and to move to the destination while collecting electricity from the electricity generator.

[0383] High Temperature Bubble Injection Type Water Maker

[0384] FIG. 7 is a conceptual diagram of the high temperature bubble injection type water maker. The raw water 84 is put into the container 83, and air is heated to several hundreds of degrees by the device for heating the air and pressing it out into the container 85 using the buoyancy type press pump of claim 12 of the present invention. The buoyancy type press pump of the present invention is characterized by low rotation speed large capacity. The compression ratio is increased to raise the temperature of the air, and the air is bubbled and injected into the raw water 84 using the injector 86. The raw water 84 boils 88, water vapor fills the container, it is pressed out 89 of the container, moves to the condenser 90, and becomes distilled water 91. Raw water is appropriately poured 92, and discharged 93.

[0385] FIG. 8 is a conceptual diagram of hanging type seismic isolator using buoyancy. The power generation device of the present invention has a vulnerable field to an earthquake, and as a solution to this problem, a seismic isolator using buoyancy is used.

[0386] A structure 95 for storing the power generation device is floated on the water 96 in the container 94, and the structure is hung from the column support for hanging 97 by the hanging device 98 using an elastic body.

[0387] Normally, it is fixed with the fixing device 99. When the earthquake occurs, fixation of the fixing device 99 is canceled.

[0388] Alternatively, the portion, fixing the bottom portion of the structure, may be an elastic body and fixed at all times. The structure supported, with top and bottom, vertically by the hanging device and the bottom fixing device are highly stable.

[0389] The present seismic isolator can also be used for isolation of buildings. The configuration is the same, the container 94 is an excavation hole, and the structure 95 corresponds to a building.

[0390] Tandem Car

[0391] FIG. 9 is a simplified plan view and a three-dimensional view of a tandem automobile.

[0392] It is a passenger car that is equipped with the power generation device of the present invention and can continue running without fuel. In order to reduce the burden on the electricity generator, it is a lightweight body. It combines the characteristics of a four-wheel passenger car and a motorcycle, making it compatible with comfort and lightness. The running wheels 100 and 101 are tandem two wheels, and the seat 102 is likewise tandem. In order to prevent falling, the auxiliary wheels 103 and 104 are provided on the left and right sides of the car body. The engine 105 is the electricity generator of the present invention and a battery, but may be a combination of a conventional engine, the electricity generator of the present invention and the battery.
