Claims15
A displacement expanding apparatus, the apparatus comprising:
- a master unit reciprocatingly rotating within a central angle of a certain magnitude with respect to a main central axis;
- and
- a forward and backward reciprocating unit located laterally to the outside of the master unit, at least a portion of the forward and backward reciprocating unit receiving the reciprocating rotation of the master unit and linearly reciprocating in forward and backward directions,
- wherein the master unit comprises:
- a swell tube extending in the forward and backward directions with respect to the main central axis and comprising a cavity having the same central axis as the main central axis;
- a swell rotor extending in the forward and backward directions with respect to the main central axis, at least a portion of the swell rotor being mounted within the cavity;
- an elastic ball mounted within the cavity and located between the swell tube and the swell rotor;
- an elastic panel member mounted within the cavity, located between the swell tube and the swell rotor, and located on a side portion of the elastic ball in a circumferential direction of the swell rotor;
- a disc plate arranged behind the swell tube and the swell rotor, wherein the disc plate vibrates in the forward and backward directions due to external vibration, thereby causing elastic deformation of the elastic panel member;
- and
- a lift cam panel arranged in front of the swell tube and the swell rotor and reciprocatingly rotating within a central angle of a certain magnitude with respect to the main central axis,
- wherein the forward and backward reciprocating unit comprises:
- a ball unit of which at least a portion is in contact with the lift cam panel;
- and
- a pushing cylinder of which at least a portion is in contact with the ball unit,
- wherein at least a portion of the ball unit is reciprocated in a radial direction of the lift cam panel by reciprocating rotation of the lift cam panel, and at least another portion of the ball unit is reciprocated in the forward and backward directions,
- wherein the pushing cylinder is linearly reciprocated in the forward and backward directions by linear forward and backward reciprocation of the ball unit,
- wherein the swell tube comprises a first protruding vane provided on an inner circumferential surface in the radial direction, protruding inward in the radial direction, and extending in the forward and backward directions,
- wherein the swell rotor comprises a second protruding vane provided on an outer circumference in the radial direction, protruding outward in the radial direction, and extending in the forward and backward directions,
- wherein the lift cam panel is deformed by the vibration of the disc plate,
- wherein the elastic panel member is elastically deformed and restored in the circumferential direction of the swell rotor between the first protruding vane and the second protruding vane to change a distance between the first protruding vane and the second protruding vane.

- and
- a pushing cylinder linearly reciprocating in the forward and backward directions, at least a portion of the pushing cylinder being in contact with the ball unit,
- wherein the rotation unit comprises:
- a main rotor;
- and
- a sliding module of which at least a portion is displaced forward by the pushing cylinder to push the main rotor.
