A device for converting or transducing wind power into other power, such as electric power. A wheel is rotatably journalled on a shaft (8) in the upper region of a tower (1). The wheel has a number of blades (9) between the shaft (8) and an outer annulus (10) which is located a distance from the shaft (8). The tower (1) is rotatable for positioning the wheel substantially at right angles to the prevailing direction of the wind. A transmission device (26) extends between the annulus (10) of the wheel and the foot of the tower for transducing the transmitted wind power into other power. |
