However, wind power generation has a problem that stable power generation is difficult due to large fluctuations in wind speed and air volume, and there is a problem of high cost of equipment and difficulty of maintenance, and there is a problem of conventional hydroelectric power using expensive drop and damaging nature.
한편 조류발전은 물의 흐름을 이용하여 전기를 생산하는 발전방법으로 날씨에 관계없이 24시간 안정적인 발전이 가능하다는 점에서 차세대 전기에너지 생산시스템으로 주목받고 있다. On the other hand, tidal power generation is generating power by using water flow, and it is attracting attention as the next generation electric energy production system in that stable power generation is possible 24 hours regardless of weather.
물의 흐름을 이용하여 발전을 하기 위해서는 대체로 아래 특허문헌과 같이 물 위에 부유하는 부유체에 회전하는 수차를 형성하도록 하고, 수차의 회전에 따라 전기를 생산하도록 하는데, 이와 같은 장치를 바다에 설치할 경우 바람에 의한 영향으로 수차의 회전에 장애가 발생하여 원활할 발전이 이루어지지 못하며, 강한 파도로 수차의 안정적인 회전이 이루어지지 못하는 문제가 있다. In order to generate electricity by using the flow of water, as shown in the following patent document, it is generally to form a water wheel rotating on a floating body floating on water, and to generate electricity according to the rotation of the water wheel. Due to the influence of the rotation of the aberration is not generated smoothly the power generation, there is a problem that the stable rotation of the aberration is not made by strong waves.

상기 부력조절부(21)는 부유본체(3)의 부력을 조절하는 구성으로, 더욱 정확하게는 부유본체(3)의 전단 또는 후단에 형성되는 부력조절탱크(31)의 부력을 조절하도록 한다. 본 발명에 따른 수력발전장치는 바다에 형성되어 해류의 강한 흐름에 의해 전기를 발생하게 되는바, 강한 파도가 필수적으로 발생하게 되며, 특히 유속이 빠를 경우에 도 6의(b)에 도시된 바와 같이 부유본체(3)가 기울어지게 되면, 접이식플랩(1)이 해류에 노출되는 면적이 증가하여 접이식플랩(1)의 속도가 과도하게 빨라지게 된다. 따라서, 상기 부력조절부(21)는 부유본체(3)의 전단 또는 후단의 부력을 신속하게 조절하여 빠르게 수평 상태로 복귀할 수 있도록 하고, 이를 통해 접이식플랩(1)의 회전속도를 일정하게 하여 효율적인 발전이 이루어지도록 한다. 따라서, 상기 부력조절부(21)는 유속이 일정 속도 이상일 경우에만 작동하도록 구성할 수 있으며, 유속정보는 후술할 유속센서(322)에 의해 전달받도록 할 수 있다. 상기 부력조절부(21)는 부유본체(3)의 기울기에 따라 부력조절탱크(31)의 부력을 조절하게 되는데, 상기 부력조절탱크(31)는 부유본체(3)의 전단 또는 후단에 형성되거나 전단과 후단 모두에 형성되도록 할 수 있으며, 상기 부력조절부(21)는 전단 및/또는 후단에 형성되는 부력조절탱크(31)의 부력을 조절하도록 한다. 상기 부력조절부(21)는 부유본체(3)의 기울기정보를 수신하는 기울기수신모듈(211), 수신되는 기울기에 따라 부력조절탱크(31)의 수량을 조절하는 탱크수량조절모듈(212)을 포함한다. The buoyancy control unit 21 is configured to adjust the buoyancy of the floating body (3), more precisely to adjust the buoyancy of the buoyancy control tank 31 formed at the front or rear end of the floating body (3). The hydroelectric generator according to the present invention is formed in the sea to generate electricity by the strong flow of the current, the strong waves are generated essentially, especially when the flow rate is fast as shown in Figure 6 (b) When the floating body 3 is inclined as well, the area of the folding flap 1 exposed to the current increases and the speed of the folding flap 1 is excessively increased. Accordingly, the buoyancy control unit 21 to quickly adjust the buoyancy of the front or rear end of the floating body 3 to quickly return to a horizontal state, thereby making the rotational speed of the folding flap (1) constant Ensure efficient development Therefore, the buoyancy control unit 21 can be configured to operate only when the flow rate is above a certain speed, flow rate information can be received by the flow rate sensor 322 to be described later.

상기 개폐조절부(22)는 상기 접이식플랩(1)의 개폐를 조절하는 구성으로, 앞서 설명한 바와 같이 상기 접이식플랩(1)은 힌지부(11)에 연결되어 자유롭게 회전하도록 구성됨으로써 접이식플랩(1)의 회전을 위해 소모되는 동력이 필요 없도록 하나, 필요시에만 상기 개폐조절부(22)를 통해 접이식플랩(1)의 개폐를 조절함으로써 더욱 효율적인 발전 및 원활한 작동이 가능하도록 한다. 상기 개폐조절부(22)는 평상시에는 작동하지 않으며, 접이식플랩(1)의 선택 개방의 필요시, 부유본체(3)의 회전 또는 이동시에만 작동하도록 하여 여전히 소모되는 동력을 최소화할 수 있도록 한다. 상기 개폐조절부(22)는 도 4에 도시된 바와 같이 부유본체(3)에 잠금돌기(22a)를 형성하여 별도의 구동수단에 의해 입출이 이루어지도록 할 수 있으며, 폐쇄하려는 접이식플랩(1)의 잠금돌기(22a)를 돌출시켜 상기 잠금부(15)에 안착되도록 함으로써 접이식플랩(1)의 개방을 차단할 수 있도록 한다. 상기 개폐조절부(22)는 상기 접이식플랩(1)을 선택적으로 개방하는 선택개방모듈(221), 접이식플랩(1) 전체를 임의로 폐쇄하는 임의폐쇄모듈(222)을 포함한다. The opening and closing control unit 22 is configured to control the opening and closing of the foldable flap 1, as described above, the foldable flap 1 is connected to the hinge portion 11 is configured to rotate freely so that the foldable flap (1) No power is consumed for the rotation of the 1), but only when necessary to control the opening and closing of the folding flap (1) through the opening and closing control unit 22 to enable more efficient power generation and smooth operation. The opening and closing adjustment unit 22 does not normally operate, when the need to open and select the folding flap (1), so as to operate only when the rotation or movement of the floating body (3) to minimize the power consumed still. The opening and closing control unit 22 may form a locking projection (22a) in the floating body (3) as shown in Figure 4 so that the entry and exit is made by a separate driving means, the folding flap (1) to close By protruding the locking projection (22a) of the lock to be seated on the lock 15 so as to block the opening of the foldable flap (1). The opening and closing control unit 22 includes a selection opening module 221 for selectively opening the foldable flap 1, a random closing module 222 for arbitrarily closing the entire foldable flap (1).
상기 선택개방모듈(221)은 물속에 들어가는 접이식플랩(1)의 일부를 선택적으로 개방하는 구성으로, 해류의 속도(유속)에 따라 개방이 이루어지도록 한다. 접이식플랩(1)의 회전에 의한 발전은 접이식플랩(1)이 일정한 속도로 회전할 때 가장 효율적인 발전이 이루어지도록 할 수 있으므로, 유속이 너무 빠를 경우 일부 접이식플랩(1)을 강제로 폐쇄하고 일부 접이식플랩(1) 만이 개방되어 해류에 의해 회전하도록 함으로써 접이식플랩(1)의 회전속도를 늦추도록 한다. 따라서, 상기 선택개방모듈(221)은 폐쇄하고자 하는 접이식플랩(1)에 형성된 잠금돌기(22a)를 돌출시켜 잠금부(15)에 안착되도록 하며, 후술할 플랩인식부(33)에 의해 인식되는 접이식플랩(1)의 위치정보와 개폐정보를 이용하여 작동이 이루어지도록 한다. The selective opening module 221 is configured to selectively open a part of the foldable flap 1 to enter the water, so that the opening is made according to the speed (flow rate) of the current. Power generation by the rotation of the folding flap (1) can make the most efficient power generation when the folding flap (1) rotates at a constant speed, so if the flow rate is too fast forcibly close some folding flap (1) Only the folding flap (1) is opened to rotate by the current flow to slow down the rotational speed of the folding flap (1). Therefore, the selective opening module 221 is projected by the locking projection (22a) formed in the foldable flap (1) to be closed to be seated in the locking unit 15, which is recognized by the flap recognition unit 33 to be described later Operation is made by using the position information and opening and closing information of the folding flap (1).
상기 임의폐쇄모듈(222)은 전체 접이식플랩(1)을 접어 임의로 폐쇄하도록 하는 구성으로, 전체 잠금돌기(22a)를 돌출시켜 접이식플랩(1)의 잠금부(15)에 안착되도록 하며, 부유본체(3)의 회전 또는 이동시 작동하도록 한다. 상기 부유본체(3)는 고정부(37)에 의해 360°회전 가능하도록 해저면에 고정되므로, 물의 흐름에 따라 정렬되는데, 본 발명에 따른 수력발전장치는 바다에 설치되는 것이 바람직하므로, 도 7의(a) 및 (b)에 도시된 바와 같이 하루에 두 번씩 그 방향을 반대로 바꾸게 된다. 이때, 부유본체(3)가 회전하는 과정에서 물의 흐름과 접이식플랩(1)의 회전 방향이 일치하지 않게 되고, 이에 따라 발전이 제대로 이루어지지 못하며, 장치의 고장을 일으킬 수 있게 된다. 따라서, 상기 임의폐쇄모듈(222)은 물의 흐름이 바뀔 때, 전체 접이식플랩(1)을 폐쇄하여 물과의 간섭이 발생하지 않도록 함으로써 장치의 고장을 방지하고 원활한 회전과 효율적인 발전이 가능하도록 한다. 또한, 상기 임의폐쇄모듈(222)은 도 7의(c)에 도시된 바와 같이 견인선(B)에 의한 부유본체(3)의 이동시에도 작동하도록 할 수 있다. 상기 부유본체(3)는 바다 속 임의의 지점에 설치하여 발전이 이루어지도록 할 수 있는데, 부유본체(3)의 위치를 변경하거나 수리를 위해 육지로 이동시킬 때에는 부유본체(3)의 하측으로 돌출된 접이식플랩(1)이 이동에 방해가 될 수 있고, 접이식플랩(1)의 고장이 발생할 수 있으므로, 접이식플랩(1)을 모두 접어 이동하도록 함으로써, 부유본체(3)의 원활한 이동이 가능하도록 한다. The arbitrary closure module 222 is configured to fold the entire folding flap (1) to be closed arbitrarily, protrudes the entire locking projection (22a) to be seated in the locking portion 15 of the folding flap (1), the floating body Operate when (3) rotates or moves. Since the floating main body 3 is fixed to the sea bottom so as to be rotatable 360 ° by the fixing part 37, the floating main body 3 is aligned according to the flow of water. Since the hydroelectric generator according to the present invention is preferably installed in the sea, FIG. As shown in (a) and (b), the direction is reversed twice a day. At this time, the flow direction of the water and the rotation direction of the folding flap (1) does not match in the process of rotating the floating main body 3, and thus the power generation is not made properly, it may cause a failure of the device.
