<p>PURPOSE:To make it possible to generate power at a nearly fixed rate regardless of the strength of wind, by connecting the drive shafts of wind-driven impeller blocks to one main shaft via clutch-fitted transmission means and connecting this main shaft to a power generator. CONSTITUTION:When wind blows from the direction of arrow X in the drawing, each vane 1,... of each impeller block 8 is rotated in the direction of arrow Y. By this, each drive shaft 4,... is rotated by means of each bevel gear 5,.... Further, the rotation of each drive shaft 4 is transmitted to main shaft 9 via sprockets 7 and 10 and chain 11, and thereby generator 13 generates power. When the wind is strong, like a typhoon, a control signal is inputted from generator 13 to contrl device 14, electromagnetic clutch 6 is cut off, the rotation of some impeller blocks 8,... is not transmitted to main shaft 9, and only the rotation of the remaining impeller blocks is transmitted to the main shaft, so that nearly constant power can be obtained at all times.</p> |
