DE4311661A1 - Wind generator - has vertical axis with balance rails carrying rotatable vertical blades which can be adjusted for wind direction - Google Patents

Abstract

The wind-powered electricity generator has two balance rails with rotatable blades, held on the rails so as to be adjustable into the wind direction by electric motors. Thus the whole wind pressure can bear on the blades and for all wind directions. The unit has a vertical axis about which the unit turns, a central supporting shaft operating the generator. The machine generates with even low wind velocity. Since the size of the balance rail and the blade lengths are not limited, the machine maximises the generation from the available wind energy. Typical dimensions are given. ADVANTAGE Presents large surface area to wind and operates even with low wind velocity

Description

Wind turbine power generation using wind power. The power generation of today's wind turbines is limited by low rotor diameter. Low wind can not be used become.

To get big cheap wind energy, have big wind surfaces come into work. Even small air movement must Provide energy.

This problem can be solved by leaves that on the Balancing rails are mounted adjustable in the wind direction. The balancing rails are based on the generator circuit and with rolling waves on railroad circular rails. The generator circuit supports and turns on splines. By the wind pressure on the leaves come with balancing rails with leaves in them Move.

The balancing rails rotate the generator circuit. The generator circuit rotates the splines with the generators.

The balancing rail comes in on the generator circuit Balancing position, this makes it possible to reduce the total wind pressure, on the system, on the generator circuit in Dreh exercise direction.

The rotating blades make it possible to reduce the wind pressure on the Redirect center. The weakened wind will be out of the Workspace redirected.

As the wind presses directly on the leaves is also at low air movement generates energy, d. H. continuously.

As the Balancierschienen with the leaves in the circulation move, the plant can work from all wind directions.

Because the Balancierschienenlänge and the sheet height is not are limited, the plant can a large wind pressure surface to have.

Embodiments of the invention are shown in the drawings and will be described in more detail below.  

Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of an embodiment example. Fig. 2 shows a further schematic illustration for explaining the Balancierschienenbewegung and position of the leaves in the circuit.

FIG. 1 shows a wind turbine consisting of blades ( 1 ), balancing rails ( 4 ), the generator circuit ( 3 ), the toothed shafts ( 7 ), the generators, the circular rail tracks ( 5 ) and the programmer.

Sheet, consists of steel frame 50 times 250m. Inner surface of canvas or plastic reinforced by nylon ropes. The steel frame has tooth shafts in the middle of the 250m sides with which the blade rests on the tooth surface of the circular path. Electric motors turn the blade on the circular path in rotation for adjustment in the wind direction. The canvas in the leaf frame can be portable. The electric motors can bring the canvas up or down in the leaf frame. Circular path ( 2 ), steel circle with a diameter of 50m.

The balancing rail has a length of 700m and consists of the right side with 5 circular paths, the center and the left side with 5 circular paths. The circular paths are connected by rolling waves ( 6 ). The center serves to connect the right and left circular paths and transfer the pressure energy to the generator circuit.

In the generator center, two balancing tracks cross each other below 90 ° and form the center of the plant.

The center supports and turns with the warehouse on one Steel plate in the free run.

The balancing track length runs from the center 50m to the Generator circuit. The generator circuit has cutouts with Bearings provided, in these cutouts, the Balancier relies rail. After the generator circuit the balancing rail runs 50m to the circular paths. The entire balance rail rolls with rolling waves on 6 circular railroad tracks in free run, without side inhibitions.

Generator steel circle, 100m diameter, on the lower side the generator circuit has a tooth surface, this supports and turns on a number of splines throughout the cycle.  

On the upper side of the generator circuit has cutouts for the Balancierschienen. Generator circuit brings along the splines Generators in rotation.

Program device and wind arrow. The sheet position in the whole cycle is programmed. For the blade rotation, the device switches the Electric motors on and off. The wind direction comes in the device from the wind arrow. The wind direction is designated 0 °.

The sheet position to the wind in the circuit: it shows Fig. 2

30 ° to 150 ° perpendicular 150 ° to 255 ° 45 ° position 255 ° to 285 ° with top side against the wind 285 ° -0 ° -30 ° 45 ° position

The balancing rail with leaves transfers the wind pressure the generator circuit in the range of 30 ° to 150 °, here comes this energy also on the generator waves.

When the energy is transferred to the generator circuit in point A1 the balancing rail in balancing position. On the left A A1 the print length is 300m, wind position perpendicular to the wind. On the right side A1 B 400m, but here are the leaves in 45 ° position to the wind, so the wind pressure is diverted to Point Z. From the balancing rail C D, by turning position 45 ° to the Wind, the wind pressure is also on point Z 'this point is on the right balancing side A1 B only 50m away from Balancing point A1, therefore the left balancing side predominates A A1 and the total wind pressure of both balancing rails is applied to the generator circuit in the direction of rotation.

The plant is raised to 125m height by steel structures. The system works fully automatically. The balancing rails with leaves move with 40-50% of the Wind speed. With wind of 3 m / s 1 turn in 20 min. With wind of 12 m / s 1 turn in 6 min.

The performance of the plant 700 times 250m = 175 000m ² = 70 000 KW The plant comes at a standstill by turning all blades with the top side against the wind.

Example 2.

The wind turbine can be set up on the sea surface become. The construction and the work process are the same as in Example 1. The following changes are necessary:

On a stable steel construction from the lake floor to 5-10m The generator circuit is mounted over the sea surface Balancing rails with leaves and the center will open Swimming pool set up. The leaves are on the circular paths assembled. The blade height is secured with ropes.

The waves can also provide energy. For taking up the wave energy are from the sea surface to the balancing rail rotatable steel sheets in 3m height below 45 ° mounted to the sea surface. The waves roll on the steel leaf and back.
