Title:
HYDRAULIC POWER GENERATOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/045214
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A hydraulic power generator equipped with: a water turbine (50) positioned in a fluid channel; a power generator (60) for generating power from the rotations of the water turbine (50); a spray channel (70) for throttling the fluid passing through the fluid channel (33), and spraying the same at the blade of the water turbine (50); a pressure-receiving shape-changing body (80) for changing shape as a result of pressure being imparted thereto by the fluid flowing through the fluid channel (33), and changing the cross-sectional area of the spray channel (70). Furthermore, the pressure-receiving shape-changing body (80) changes shape as a result of pressure being imparted thereto by the fluid flowing through the fluid channel (33) and without using a power source. Consequently, this hydraulic power generator is applicable for use in environments such as small-scale facilities for residential use or the like, where it is difficult to secure an external power source and only local energy is available.
