Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to a time capsule with solar cells.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, time capsules have been produced in which items that one would like to leave behind for posterity are sealed in a capsule-shaped container and stored in the ground or the like. It is important to preserve the contents of this time capsule for a long period of time without altering its quality. Therefore, technology is needed to keep the inside of a time capsule at a constant temperature and humidity. For example, a time capsule that is completely sealed off from the outside air and does not have an energy device is kept deep underground at a constant temperature. In many cases, a method such as installing it at a certain location was used. However, this method has the problem that it cannot be installed anywhere because it must be installed in a location suitable for preservation.

Therefore, a time capsule was created that is equipped with an energy device such as a regular commercial power source or a private power generator that uses fuel, and uses the electricity generated by these to drive an air conditioning system such as a ventilation fan to maintain an optimal preservation environment. There is.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] However, in a time capsule that is equipped with an energy system and maintains a preservation environment, if the necessary energy is to be supplied by diesel power generation, etc., fuel is required for that purpose, and in particular, If you try to operate the air conditioning system inside the time capsule for a long period of time, the amount of fuel will be enormous, and you will also need a large space for storage, which raises the problem of high construction and fuel costs. be.

Another problem is that if the storage period is longer than expected, there is a risk that the fuel will run out.

In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a time capsule that does not require fuel storage equipment and can be used semi-permanently.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention provides a time capsule with a solar cell that has a solar cell and is operated by the electric power generated by the solar cell, and also includes a solar cell and the electric power generated by the solar cell. The present invention attempts to solve the above-mentioned problems by providing a time capsule with a solar cell, which is characterized by having a means for internal ventilation.

Another object of the present invention is to solve the above problem by providing a time capsule with a solar cell, which is characterized in that the output of the solar cell, which varies depending on the amount of light received, is constantly input to the ventilation means.

[Function] Since the present invention obtains energy from external sunlight using solar cells, it does not require fuel or fuel storage equipment, and can realize a time capsule that is inexpensive to construct and can be used semi-permanently. .

Furthermore, by directly supplying power from the solar cells to the ventilation means, the ventilation effect is maximized during daytime clear weather, and the ventilation operation can be reduced during nighttime or rainy weather. Therefore, ventilation can be performed automatically when the outside air is most suitable for ventilation on sunny days.

[Example] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the configuration of an embodiment of the present invention.

In this embodiment, the time capsule 1 is installed underground below the earth's surface 2, and the solar panel 3 is installed above the ground, and is capable of receiving sunlight and generating power. Electric power generated by the solar panel 3 is constantly supplied via electric wires 8 to the intake fan 5 and exhaust fan 7 installed in the intake hole 4 and the exhaust hole 6, and operates each fan 57. This allows ventilation inside the time capsule. A roof 9 is provided over the intake hole 4 and the exhaust hole 6 to prevent rainwater from entering the time capsule.

With the above configuration, the electric power generated by the solar cells during the day drives the intake fan 5 and the exhaust fan 7, and replaces the air inside the time capsule 1 with outside air.

In particular, when the weather is sunny, the amount of power generated by solar cells increases,
Low-humidity outside air on sunny days can be effectively brought into the time capsule, and since the amount of power generated by the solar cells is reduced at night or on rainy days, there is less chance of high-humidity outside air being taken in. In this way, the interior of the time capsule will be automatically ventilated with preservation-friendly air.

Further, the time capsule with solar cells of the present invention does not necessarily use the power generated by the solar cells only for the above-mentioned ventilation operation. Equipped with a storage battery to store the generated electricity, it can be used to control the temperature inside the time capsule,
It can also be used as a power source for internal monitoring devices, etc.

In addition, in the above-mentioned embodiments, we have explained the ventilation of semi-enclosed time capsules with outside air, but also for completely enclosed time capsules that cannot be ventilated with outside air.
By supplying the power generated by the solar cells to the temperature and humidity control device inside the time capsule, it is possible to maintain good storage conditions.

[Brief explanation of the drawing]

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the structure of one embodiment of a time capsule with a solar cell invented by the tree. [Effects of the Invention] As described in Section 7, according to the present invention, by generating the energy required by the time capsule using solar cells,
It becomes possible to supply energy semi-permanently, making it possible to create a time capsule without worrying about running out of energy. In addition, there is no need for fuel for power generation and its storage equipment as in the past.
Alternatively, since fewer and smaller items are required, a small and inexpensive time capsule can be realized. In addition, for time capsules that are ventilated with outside air, the timing of ventilation is dependent on the strength of sunlight, which has the effect of automatically bringing in dry outside air suitable for preservation.
