Wind power generation device based on dielectric elastomers

TL;DR: In this article, a wind power generation device based on dielectric elastomers is presented, which is capable of converting both mechanical energy and electric energy by using the periodic compression and springback movement state of the elastomer.

Abstract: The invention discloses a wind power generation device based on dielectric elastomers The wind power generation device (100) comprise a base plate (1), a support (2), the dielectric elastomers (3), a windmill assembly (4) and connecting rods (5) The support (2) and the dielectric elastomers (3) are all arranged on the base plate (1) The windmill assembly (4) is arranged on the support (2) One ends of the connecting rods (5) are connected with the dielectric elastomers (3), and the other ends of the connecting rods (5) are driven by the windmill assembly (4) The windmill assembly (4) rotates and drives the connecting rods (5) to move in a reciprocating manner, so that the dielectric elastomers (3) are in a periodic compression and springback movement state, and the conversion of mechanical energy and electric energy is achieved According to the wind power generation device, electricity is generated by the adoption of the periodic compression and springback movement state of the dielectric elastomers, direct coupling with an energy source is conducted, no intermediate conversion link is needed, the requirement on the movement frequency is avoided, and the application range is wide
