WIND TURBINE ELECTRO-GENERATOR Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: wind-power engineering. SUBSTANCE: rotor 4 of the wind turbine electro-generator with vertical vanes 13 secured on it is installed on travelling bearing assemblies for movement on annular guide beam 2, it is made as an anchor ring. Electromagnets 6 and inductors 7 of the line generator are located symmetrically relative to the vertical axis of each cross-section of the anchor ring in the points of installation of the latters. Provision is made for manufacture of a hollow anchor ring from ferromagnetic material, it may also be made of several segments connected by flexible members. When the rotor is made of composite material, ferromagnetic strip 8 (9) is applied onto its surface in the area of engagement with electromagnets 6 and inductors 7. EFFECT: improved design. 4 cl, 3 dwg
