WIND POWER-GENERATING PLANT Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC F03D3/06 

FIELD: wind power engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention can be used for converting energy of wind into electric energy. Proposed wind power-generating plant contains horizontal platform resting on rail with rigidly fitted-on wind vane whose working surface passes through axis of turning of horizontal platform. Shafts are secured on platform with fitted-on radial crossmembers. Ends of crossmembers are hinge-coupled with beams. Beams are installed for reciprocation parallel to each other and working surface of wind vane passing through vertical shafts. Rotary blades are installed on vertical axles in support frames, each frame being rigidly secured on beam. Cantilever beams form mechanical coupling of with electric generator. Cantilever beams are hinge-connected with crossmembers and they convey reciprocating motion to inertia member installed for rotation on horizontal guides of turnable frame. Inertia member is furnished with ratchet clutches, each being in contact on its section with screw surface of shaft divided into two sections twisted in opposite directions.

EFFECT: increased power output of wind power-generating plant.
