FIELD: energy industry.SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of power plants using energy of flow of environment. The self-aligning sailing unit for outfeed of flow energy, characterised in that it comprises a rail closed in a ring, on which the mobile trolleys are placed, interconnected by the couplers and bearing generators, which rotor is brought into contact with the surface of the rail. Each trolley is equipped with a bracket, which is attached to the end of the strap, the other end of which is attached to the thrust bearing a triangular-shaped sail, made with a vane connected with that sail through the kinematic connection to provide turning of the sail depending on rotation of the vane in the flow direction. The said kinematic connection comprises a driven gear connected kinematically by the flexible transmission to the drive pinion with a smaller diameter with a transmission ratio of 2:1, or connected through the shaft through the bevel gears to the drive pinion of smaller diameter with a transmission ratio of 2:1, or connected by a toothed belt with this drive pinion through an additional pair of gear wheels with the same transmission ratio of 2:1. All thrust bearing triangular-shaped sails are connected with the cords in series with each other, and the sails are equipped with air balloons to keep the sails with the thrusts at a height relative to the trolleys on the rail.EFFECT: invention enables to mount automatically optimally the sail system relative to the wind.5 dwg |
