Portable Wave-Swash And Coastal-Wind Energy Harvester
US Patent:
7963112, Jun 21, 2011
Filed:
Apr 20, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/799164
Inventors:
Erat S. Joseph - Baton Rouge LA, US
International Classification:
F03B 17/02, F03B 13/18, F03B 13/10, H02P 9/04
US Classification:
60499, 60495, 60497, 60507, 290 42, 290 43, 290 53, 290 54
Abstract:
In accordance with the present invention, a portable wave-swash & coastal-wind energy harvester, once placed on a sea coast in the swash zone captures the mechanical energy contained in: (a) waves in the swash-zone, and (b) coastal-wind. Energy is extracted through: (a) wave turbines, (b) wind turbines, and (c) wave floats. A rotational transmission system with one-way clutches transmits torque to an alternator, while flywheels attached to the axles maintain steady rotation of axles. A wave funnel faces the waves and causes the wave uprush to converge toward wave turbines. A buoyancy chamber at the bottom produces reduction of weight of the portable wave-swash & coastal-wind energy harvester when water in the chamber is emptied and thereby enhances maneuverability of the unit on land and in water, while a stabilization tank at the top when filled with water provides extra weight and stability of the unit in its operating location.
Hydrokinetic And Wind Energy Harvester
US Patent:
8601808, Dec 10, 2013
Filed:
Oct 30, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/694085
Inventors:
Erat S. Joseph - Baton Rouge LA, US
International Classification:
F03B 17/02, F03B 13/18, H02P 9/04
US Classification:
60506, 60495, 60499, 60502, 290 42, 290 53
Abstract:
In accordance with the present invention, a Hydrokinetic & Wind Energy Harvester, placed in a wave-swash zone or in a flowing stream captures energy through water turbines and a wind turbine. A funnel guides water to converge and impinge on water turbines housed in a pipe. A trash guard attached to the funnel prevents trash from entering the pipe. A rotational transmission-system with one-way clutches transmits torque to an alternator to generate electricity. Flywheels maintain steady rotation of alternator shaft. A buoyancy chamber at the bottom produces reduction of weight of the unit in water, thereby enhances maneuverability of unit in water. Stabilization tank at the top when filled with water provides extra weight and stability against sliding and overturning of the unit in its operating location. An energy farm combines the energy of several units linked together; in coastal water, units form a seawall-like barrier mitigating coastal erosion.
Portable Wave-Swash And Coastal-Wind Energy Harvester
US Patent:
8341957, Jan 1, 2013
Filed:
May 14, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/068532
Inventors:
Erat S. Joseph - Baton Rouge LA, US
International Classification:
F03B 17/02, F03B 13/18, H02P 9/04
US Classification:
60506, 60495, 60499, 60502, 290 42, 290 53
Abstract:
In accordance with the present invention, a portable wave-swash & coastal-wind energy harvester, placed on a sea coast in swash zone captures energy contained in coastal waves and in coastal-wind through the utilization of wave turbines, wind turbines, and wave floats. Wave-float levers carrying wave floats and wave turbines, swing and maintain lower halves of wave turbines below water always. A gear system with one-way clutches transmits torque to an alternator to generate electricity. Flywheels maintain steady rotation of alternator shaft. A buoyancy chamber at the bottom produces reduction of weight of the unit when buoyancy chamber is emptied of water, and thereby enhances maneuverability of unit in water. Stabilization tanks at the top when filled with water provide extra weight and stability of the unit in its operating location. Units linked together in an energy farm combine their energy while forming a seawall-like barrier offering protection against coastal erosion.
