Description
<Desc/Clms Page number 1> <Desc / Clms Page number 1>
La présente invention concerne un dispositif pour recueillir l'eau contenue dans l'air. The present invention relates to a device for collecting the water contained in the air.
L'approvisionnement en eau n'est pas toujours possible, régions arides, sécheresse, manque d'énergie pour les forages profonds, eau souterraine inaccessible... Water supply is not always possible, arid regions, drought, lack of energy for deep drilling, inaccessible groundwater ...
Cette carence en eau semble croître dans certaines régions du monde et devient un problème vital pour les populations. This water deficiency seems to be increasing in certain regions of the world and is becoming a vital problem for the populations.
Le dispositif selon l'invention apporte une solution technique à ces problèmes. Il comporte en effet sa propre source d'énergie nécessaire au fonctionnement d'un système de condensation des vapeurs d'eau contenues dans l'air. Cette énergie est fournie par un moteur éolien, l'hélice de ce dernier comporte en son centre une turbine assurant une circulation d'air à l'intérieur d'un réacteur à effet thermodynamique. Cet effet thermodynamique est rendu possible grâce au fonctionnement d'un circuit frigorifique faisant partie intégrante du réacteur et dont le compresseur est entraîné par le même moteur éolien. Le fonctionnement du circuit frigorifique provoque le refroidissement d'un évaporateur à circulation d'air forcée, diminuant ainsi le degré hygrométrique de l'air, par condensation à son contact. L'air asséché et réfrigéré sortant de l'évaporateur, refroidit le compresseur et le condenseur du circuit frigorifique, puis est aspiré par la turbine du moteur éolien et expulsé du réacteur. Les vapeurs d'eau condensées sont recueillies sous l'évaporateur dans le bac à condensats, puis canalisées hors du réacteur par un circuit d'évacuation vers un réservoir de stockage situé en haut du pylône supportant le dispositif, permettant ainsi la mise sous pression de la conduite de distribution. L'entrée d'air du réacteur est favorisée par sa direction en amont du vent, l'hélice du moteur éolien située en aval du vent assure l'auto orientation du dispositif. The device according to the invention provides a technical solution to these problems. It has its own source of energy necessary for the operation of a system for condensing water vapors contained in the air. This energy is supplied by a wind motor, the propeller of the latter comprises in its center a turbine ensuring air circulation inside a reactor with thermodynamic effect. This thermodynamic effect is made possible by the operation of a refrigeration circuit which is an integral part of the reactor and whose compressor is driven by the same wind engine. The operation of the refrigeration circuit causes the cooling of an evaporator with forced air circulation, thus reducing the hygrometric degree of the air, by condensation on its contact. The dried and refrigerated air leaving the evaporator cools the compressor and the condenser of the refrigeration circuit, then is sucked in by the turbine of the wind engine and expelled from the reactor. The condensed water vapors are collected under the evaporator in the condensate tray, then channeled out of the reactor by an evacuation circuit towards a storage tank located at the top of the pylon supporting the device, thus allowing the pressurization of the distribution line. The air intake of the reactor is favored by its direction upstream of the wind, the propeller of the wind motor located downstream of the wind ensures the auto orientation of the device.
Le dessin annexé illustre l'invention : La figure 1 représente en coupe, le dispositif de l'invention. The accompanying drawing illustrates the invention: Figure 1 shows in section, the device of the invention.
En référence à ce dessin, le dispositif comporte un réacteur (1) à effet thermodynamique qui renferme les différents éléments qui le compose, le filtre (2) purifiant l'air entrant dans le réacteur, l'évaporateur (3) du circuit frigorifique qui condense les vapeurs d'eau contenues dans l'air entrant , en eau recueillie dans le bac à condensats (4), puis canalisées dans le circuit d'évacuation (5) vers le réservoir de stockage (6) et la conduite de distribution (7). L'air asséché et réfrigéré sortant de l'évaporateur (3) refroidit les organes du circuit frigorifique composé aussi, du réservoir (8) de liquide du gaz réfrigérant, du filtre déshydrateur (9), du voyant de liquide (10), du détendeur (11), des tuyauteries basse pression (12) et haute pression (13), du compresseur (14) et du condenseur (15). With reference to this drawing, the device comprises a reactor (1) with thermodynamic effect which contains the various elements which compose it, the filter (2) purifying the air entering the reactor, the evaporator (3) of the refrigeration circuit which condenses the water vapors contained in the incoming air, in water collected in the condensate pan (4), then channeled in the evacuation circuit (5) towards the storage tank (6) and the distribution pipe ( 7). The dried and refrigerated air leaving the evaporator (3) cools the members of the refrigeration circuit also composed of the reservoir (8) of the refrigerant gas liquid, the filter drier (9), the liquid sight glass (10), the pressure reducer (11), low pressure (12) and high pressure (13) piping, compressor (14) and condenser (15).
Ce même compresseur (14) est entraîné par un accouplement (16) le reliant à l'arbre transmission (17) supportant l'hélice (18) du moteur éolien, et en son centre la turbine (19), l'ensemble étant supporté par les paliers (20) et (21) assurant la rotation de ce même arbre et verrouillé par le cône de sortie (22). L'ensemble du dispositif est supporté par un pylône (23), par l'intermédiaire d'un palier (24) assurant l'orientation du dispositif au vent. This same compressor (14) is driven by a coupling (16) connecting it to the transmission shaft (17) supporting the propeller (18) of the wind engine, and in its center the turbine (19), the assembly being supported by the bearings (20) and (21) ensuring the rotation of this same shaft and locked by the outlet cone (22). The entire device is supported by a pylon (23), via a bearing (24) ensuring the orientation of the device to the wind.
Selon une variante non illustrée le dispositif peut comporté un système de régulation des pales de l'hélice et de l'ensemble de la machine, un multiplicateur de vitesse de rotation, des équipements électroniques de contrôle ainsi q'un générateur d'énergie électrique. According to a variant not illustrated, the device may include a system for regulating the blades of the propeller and of the whole machine, a speed multiplier, electronic control equipment as well as an electric power generator.
A titre d'exemple non limitatif, le système illustré conviendrait pour un moteur éolien d'environ deux mètres de diamètre. By way of nonlimiting example, the illustrated system would be suitable for a wind motor of about two meters in diameter.
Le dispositif selon l'invention est particulièrement destiné à recueillir l'eau contenu dans l'air. The device according to the invention is particularly intended for collecting the water contained in the air.
