devices, in particular to
an energy storage device for a near-zero energy consumption building
community.
BACKGROUND
[0003] At present, more communities are provided with energy storage devices,
most of the
energy storage devices are mainly solar energy heat storage devices, in a
season when supply
of heat is needed, the solar energy heat storage devices are used for
replacing coal, such that air
quality can be effectively improved, and safety accidents are reduced.
[0004] However, the energy storage mode of the existing energy storage device
is single, when
the device is used, heat energy can only be stored using solar energy. As the
device is large and
inconvenient to move, the existing energy storage device cannot
correspondingly change with
the angle of illumination, so that the overall collection efficiency is low,
the amount of hot water
required for heat storage is small, and the temperature of the hot water in
the existing energy
storage device can also be guaranteed, which of course, causes a hot water
shortage in daily use
due to an insufficient supply of hot water.
[0005] Accordingly, it would have been desirable to provide an energy storage
device used

set forth in
the foregoing background.

[0056] Furthermore, hot water is supplied to a heat storage tank (22) numbered
A, B, C... and
G from top to bottom by the solar water heater (1); and
100571 in addition, the hot water in the heat storage tank 22 is sequentially
used from bottom
to top, so that when the heat storage tank 22 is used for heat storage, the
solenoid valves on the
heat storage tank A 22 are firstly opened, the solenoid valves on the other
heat storage tanks 22
are kept closed. The water body to be heated in the heat storage tank A 22 is
pumped to the
water storage tank 10 through a pump body 6, and the heated water body in the
water storage
tank 10 is sent to the heat storage tank A 22 for heat preservation. The water
body in the water
storage tank 10 is sent to the heat storage tank B 22 for heat preservation
after the water body
in the water storage tank 10 is heated, and so on. The expansion of the water
storage tank 10
enables hot water to be sent to different heat storage tanks 22 for heat
preservation, and in use,
.. hot water sent to the heat storage tanks 22 in the last time can be used
firstly, that is, the hot
water in the heat storage tanks 22 is sequentially used from bottom to top.
When the hot water
in the heat storage tank A 22 is used, the temperature of the hot water in the
heat storage tank A
22 may be insufficient, and auxiliary heating is carried out by using an
electric heater. In daily
life, this does not happen every day, so that more energy can be saved, and
this energy is also

[0065] In implementation, water in the water storage tank 10 is heated by a
solar water heater
1, meanwhile, electric energy is stored by a photovoltaic panel 2. When energy
is stored, a
focusing lens 8 moves to a position capable of providing illumination for a
photovoltaic panel
2 when illumination is carried out on a vacuum heat collector tube 9, and the
focusing lens 8
moves to a position capable of providing illumination for the vacuum heat
collector tube 9 when
illumination is carried out on the photovoltaic panel, so that omnibearing and
continuous heat
storage and power storage are realized. When the heat storage tank 22 is used
for heat storage,
the heat storage tank A 22 is opened first, the electromagnetic valves on the
other heat storage
tanks 22 are kept closed. The water body to be heated in the heat storage tank
A 22 is pumped
to a water storage tank 10 through a pump body 6, and the water body heated in
the water
storage tank 10 is sent to the heat storage tank A 22 for heat preservation.
When the water body
in the water storage tank 10 is heated, the water body in the water storage
tank 10 is sent to the
heat storage tank B 22 for heat preservation, and so on. According to the heat
storage mode, not
only the water storage tank 10 is expanded, but also the hot water is sent to
different heat storage
tanks 22 for heat preservation and subsequent use.
