PCT No. PCT/IB95/00871 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 10, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 10, 1998 PCT Filed Oct. 13, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO97/13979 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 17, 1997A horizontal axis wind turbine comprises a rotor-supporting framework, a multi-vaned rotor, an electricity-generating stator, and a rotation track. The supporting framework is constructed with a plurality of triangular sub-units. The rotor has a plurality of vanes projecting therefrom. The vanes have adjustable pitch and are encircled by a rim having a plurality of magnets. Wind induces rotation of the rim. The stator is essentially stationary and is mounted on the framework opposite the rim. As magnets on the rotating rim pass by the stator, electricity is generated. The stator uses the pull of the magnets to automatically adjust itself to align with the rotating rim. The framework is mounted on the rotation track so that the framework can continually be adjusted to maximize wind-induced rotation of the rotor. |
