That is, the elevator has two working modes, which can do work and generate electricity.
In this embodiment, the hoist may be provided with two rows including a first hoist 31 and a second hoist 32 respectively provided at both sides of the supporting unit 1, one end of the traction rope 24 is connected with the first hoist 31, and the other end is connected with the second hoist 32. By simultaneously applying the force to both ends of the traction rope 24 by the first and second lifters 31 and 32, energy waste at the other end (fixed end) of the traction rope 24 can be effectively avoided as compared with applying the force to only one end of the traction rope 24.
Optionally, the first lifter 31 includes a first electric energy conversion device and a first roller 311, the first electric energy conversion device is used for driving the first roller 311 to rotate, the second lifter 32 includes a second electric energy conversion device and a second roller 321, the second electric energy conversion device is used for driving the second roller 321 to rotate, one end of the hauling rope 24 is connected with the first roller 311, and the other end is connected with the second roller 321. The first electric energy conversion device and the second electric energy conversion device can be a combination of a generator and a motor, or can be a permanent magnet motor with the generator and the motor integrated into a whole.
The generator refers to a mechanical device for converting other forms of energy into electric energy, which is driven by a water turbine, a steam turbine, a diesel engine or other power machines, converts energy generated by water flow, air flow, fuel combustion or nuclear fission into mechanical energy, transmits the mechanical energy to the generator, and then converts the mechanical energy into electric energy by the generator. The form of the generator is many, but the working principle of the generator is based on the law of electromagnetic induction and the law of electromagnetic force. The general principle of its construction is therefore: the magnetic circuit and the circuit which mutually perform electromagnetic induction are formed by proper magnetic conduction and electric conduction materials so as to generate electromagnetic power and achieve the purpose of energy conversion. The generator is generally composed of a stator, a rotor, an end cover, a bearing, and the like. The stator is composed of a stator core, a coil winding, a machine base and other structural members for fixing the parts. The rotor consists of rotor iron core (or magnetic pole, magnetic yoke) winding, protecting ring, central ring, slip ring, fan, rotating shaft, etc. The stator and the rotor of the generator are connected and assembled by the bearing and the end cover, so that the rotor can rotate in the stator to do the motion of cutting magnetic force lines, thereby generating induced potential, leading out the induced potential through the connecting terminal and connecting the induced potential in a loop, and generating current.
An electric motor is a device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. The magnetic power rotating torque is formed by generating a rotating magnetic field by using an electrified coil (namely a stator winding) and acting on a rotor (such as a squirrel-cage closed aluminum frame). The motors are classified into direct current motors and alternating current motors according to the power supply, and most of the motors in the power system are alternating current motors, and can be synchronous motors or asynchronous motors (the magnetic field rotating speed of a motor stator and the rotating speed of a rotor do not keep synchronous speed). The motor mainly comprises a stator and a rotor, and the direction of forced movement of an electrified wire in a magnetic field is related to the current direction and the direction of a magnetic induction line (magnetic field direction). The motor works in the principle that the magnetic field acts on the current to rotate the motor.
When the first electric energy conversion device (or the second electric energy conversion device) is used as a motor, the motor drives the first roller 311 (or the second roller 321) through the rotor, and then the energy temporary storage piece 21 is lifted from the energy release position to the energy storage position through the traction rope 24; when the first electric energy conversion device (or the second electric energy conversion device) is used as a generator, the traction rope 24 drives the first roller 311 (or the second roller 321) when the energy temporary storage piece 21 descends, and then the rotor cuts the magnetic field of the stator to do work to generate electric energy, and gravitational potential energy of the energy temporary storage piece 21 is finally converted into electric energy of the generator.
Under certain conditions, the generator and the motor are mutually switchable. The motor can be used as a motor or a generator. For example, the most common permanent magnet motor of the new energy automobile is integrated, and can drive wheels and generate electricity. The motor can drive the vehicle and generate electricity, and the BSG motor mounted on the engine is reversible. After three-phase voltages are input to the stator coils, a rotating magnetic field is generated, and the permanent magnet rotor passively rotates under the effect of the same-level repulsion, so that the permanent magnet rotor is used as a motor. When the permanent magnet rotor rotates under the action of external force, current is induced in the three-phase necklace of the stator, and the three-phase necklace is used as a generator. However, the two modes cannot be operated simultaneously, and the motor cannot be used as a generator when used as a motor, and the motor cannot be used as a generator when used as a generator.
In order to improve the electricity-saving effect, reduce the energy loss in the braking process, and feed back the deceleration energy to the power grid, thereby achieving the effects of energy conservation and environmental protection. The first electric energy conversion device and the second electric energy conversion device can adopt a permanent magnet motor provided with a four-quadrant frequency converter, the four-quadrant frequency converter meets various industrial application requirements, and the four-quadrant frequency converter is particularly suitable for occasions needing strong braking effect or occasions needing long-time heavy-duty electric braking, wherein the large-inertia potential energy load such as lifting equipment, the rotational inertia of the equipment is large, the speed reduction and the amplitude reduction from high speed to low speed are large, and the braking time is short.
In an embodiment, when the rotation directions of the first roller 311 and the second roller 321 are opposite, and the energy temporary storage 21 falls from the energy storage position under the action of gravity, the rotation directions of the first roller 311 and the second roller 321 are opposite, so that the first lifter 31 and the second lifter 32 can simultaneously store energy. Of course, in another embodiment, the rotation directions of the first roller 311 and the second roller 321 may be the same, and when the diameters of the first roller 311 and the second roller 321 are the same, the first roller 311 and the second roller 321 may have a certain rotation speed difference. Of course, the diameters of the first roller 311 and the second roller 321 may be different, so long as the winding length of the traction rope 24 on the first roller 311 and the second roller 321 is ensured to have a certain length difference.
To facilitate locking of the energy store 21 in the energy storage position, optionally a first brake is provided on the first roller 311 for braking the first roller 311. The second drum 321 is provided with a second brake for braking the second drum 321. The first brake and the second brake may be hydraulically actuated to provide a sufficient braking force to lock the energy store 21 in the stored energy position. The first lifter 31 further includes a first base 312, the first roller 311 is rotatably disposed on the first base 312, and the first brake is fixedly mounted on the first base 312. The second lifter 32 further includes a second base 322, the second roller 321 is rotatably disposed on the second base 322, and the second brake is fixedly mounted on the second base 322.
In another embodiment, the hoisting machine may be provided with a row, including a plurality of first hoisting machines 31 arranged at one side of the supporting unit 1, the first hoisting machines 31 are connected with one end of the hauling rope 24, and the other end of the hauling rope 24 is fixedly connected to the supporting unit 1.

In this embodiment, both the excess energy and the target energy are electrical energy. In other embodiments, the surplus energy and the target energy may be the kinetic energy, the elastic potential energy, and other energy that is convenient to be converted.
The gravity energy storage system provided by the embodiment stores and releases energy by utilizing gravitational potential energy, stores energy at lower cost, improves the economical efficiency of the whole system, can realize energy storage and power generation by utilizing the gravitational potential energy, and is suitable for storage of renewable energy sources such as wind power, photovoltaic and the like, and power generation application scenes such as peak clipping and valley filling, frequency modulation and phase modulation of a power grid and the like.
