A wind powered electric lamp comprises a specially designed structure or apparatus incorporating an electric generator 2, a wind activated propelling device 6 and an electric lamp bulb or bulbs 9, the whole arranged and connected mechanically and electrically in such a manner that the effect of wind rotating the propelling device will operate the generator 2 and create an electric current causing the electric bulb or bulbs to illuminate. Optionally but not essentially the apparatus may be provided with means of connection to a separate external electricity supply and means of fixing or mounting onto a weighted base 1, a post, pole, frame, tower or other suitable supporting structure or, on to a stabilised floating base in the form of a buoy for marine use. The apparatus may also be provided with an integral gearing system, rechargeable batteries (21, Fig 5) and a number of electrical control circuits or components, for example to cause the lamp to flash on and off or to disconnect current from the lamp during daylight. <IMAGE> |
