COLLAPSIBLE VERTICAL-AXIS TURBINE |
摘要 |
A collapsible vertical-axis turbine for wind or hydro applications is provided, comprising a plurality of vertical blades hingedly connected to a plurality of support arms, a tower having a rotating section, the rotating section hingedly connected to the plurality of support arms. In operating mode, the support arms achieve a substantially horizontal position in the operating mode, and in a collapsed mode the plurality of vertical blades preferably nest substantially adjacent and substantially parallel to the tower. A cable means is provided for erecting the vertical blades into an operating mode. The disclosed configuration is easy to erect and collapse for transport, and is well-suited to be implemented as a small to medium scale turbine for deployment to remote locations. |
