AUTOMOTIVE WIND POWER STATION Russian patent published in 1994 - IPC

FIELD: wind power engineering. SUBSTANCE: automotive wind power station has electromotor for driving rotating platform which is secured to fixed base and ring collector secured to the rotating platform and connected to a consumer through a current collector. Generators, driving shafts of which are provided with electromagnet sliding clutches, are positioned on the rotating platform. A system for step loading and wind orientation of a wind motor includes switch units of generators having contactors for switching in of the electromagnets of the sliding clutches and contactors for switching in of generators, wind speed meter, tachometers mounted on axles of current exciters of the generators, and pickup of wind direction provided with reverse switch. The wind direction pickup is made of an aircraft tachometer and connected with electromagnets of the sliding clutches, tachometers and generators through contactors of the switch unit. Pickup of wind direction is coupled with the electromotor for driving the rotating platform through reverse switch. EFFECT: enhanced efficiency. 5 dwg
