The present invention relates to a power-saving electrical device and, more particularly, to an electrical device, which empolys a mechanical power system energized by an initial power supply to rotate a flywheel, so that a large torque can be produced, wherein an output shaft of the flywheel is connected to an electrical generator so that the mechanical power system can drive the electrical generator to generate a large amount of electrical power, thus achieving the effect of power saving, and surplus power at the electrical generator can be fed back to a power storage device, which has the function of providing electrical power to initiate the mechanical power system.
In recent years, the earth is facing a crisis of energy depletion, and thus restriction of electricity use is often taken to slow down the energy consumption. To solve this problem, countries around the world try to develop new technology that uses wind, solar, hydraulic, coal-fired, or nuclear energy to generate electricity for reducing the energy being consumed.
However, wind, solar, and hydraulic power are limited by regional conditions, while coal-fired and nuclear power are polluting and have certain risks. To overcome the disadvantages of the existing power generation, after constant efforts, applicant has developed a power-saving electrical device.
One object of the present invention is to provide a power-saving electrical device, which empolys a mechanical power system energized by an initial power supply to rotate a flywheel. Due to the principle of inertia, a large torque can be produced. An output shaft of the flywheel is connected to an electrical generator so that the mechanical power system can drive the electrical generator to generate a large amount of electrical power, thus achieving the effect of power saving. Surplus power at the electrical generator can be fed back to a power storage device, which has the function of providing electrical power to initiate the mechanical power system.
According to one aspect of the power-saving electrical device, the initial power supply can be a public grid system.
The power-saving electric device 10 of the present invention utilizes an initial power supply (A) to energize a mechanical power system 1. The initial power supply (A) can be a public grid system (B). The present invention was invented using the concept of reverse engineering. For example, in a household, factory, or site that uses electricity from a public grid system, the average electrical consumption can be obtained from the reading of the associated electric meter. Furthermore, the difference between the average electrical consumption and the rated power of a machine associated therewith can be estimated. Based on these data, a suitable electrical generator can be selected, and the torque required to operate the electrical generator can be calculated. For the motor 11, which can be energized by the public grid system (B), since the flywheel 11 connected at the output shaft of the motor 11 can increase the output torque of the motor 11, the electrical generator 3 can generate electricity several times more than an electrical generator without a flywheel. The electricity can be used in homes, factories, and any places where electricity is needed. In addition, surplus power at the electrical generator can be fed back to a power storage device 43, which has the function of providing electrical power to initiate the mechanical power system 1. Since the present invention allows the electrical power generation to be multiplied, less power input from the initial power supply (A) or the public grid system (B) is required to achieve a fixed average power consumption, thus achieving the effect of power saving (i.e. the electric meter will have a lower reading).

The mechanical power system 1 includes a motor 11 capable of being energized by an initial power supply (A), wherein the initial power supply (A) can be a public grid system (B) as shown in
The flywheel 2 is connected to the mechanical power system 1 such that the flywheel 2 can be rotated by the mechanical power system 1, and due to the principle of inertia, a larger torque can be produced.
The electrical generator 3 can be coupled to the flywheel 2 by a belt 21 engaged with a central shaft 20 of the flywheel 2 so that the electrical generator 3 can generate electrical power for homes, factories, and any places where electricity is needed. Surplus power at the electrical generator 3 can be fed back to a power storage device 43, which has the function of providing electrical power to initiate the mechanical power system 1 and can cooperate with the public grid system (B) to facilitate energizing the mechanical power system 1.

In general, the output torque of the household electrical equipment 41 or the factory mechanical equipment 42 is proportional to the amount of electrical power required for the household electrical equipment 41 or the factory mechanical equipment 42. Based on the principle of inertia, the flywheel 2 enables the mechanical power system 1 to provide a large torque for the electrical generator 3. In other words, the electrical generator 3 can generate the same electricity with less power input from the public grid system (B), thus achieving the effect of energy saving.
