WIND-DRIVEN DEVICE Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC F03D5/06 

FIELD: electricity.

SUBSTANCE: invention is related to wind-power engineering and makes it possible to use both energy of wind rushes and permanent component of its velocity. Wind-driven device contains tower, rotary head installed on it with weather vane and hinge, mast with sail fixed in hinge axis, and mechanism of working machine motion transfer. Wind-driven device additionally contains accumulator of potential energy, sail is arranged with variable area and contains mechanism of its alteration and sensors of accelerations, at that mast is connected to mechanism of working machine movement transfer and accumulator in the plane of its swinging with provision of possibility of its swinging in the range from initial position to the right angle to this position. Accumulator of potential energy is arranged in the from of weight fixed in mast below axis of its swinging, or in the form of elastic element, one end of which is hingedly fixed to rotary head, and the second one is hingedly fixed to the mast in plane of swinging of the latter. Mechanism of working machine movement transfer may be arranged in the form of piston pump, the cylinder of which is hingedly fixed in rotary head, and stem is hingedly connected to the mast, or in the form of linear electric generator, casing of which is hingedly fixed in rotary head, and core is hingedly connected to the mast, or in the form of electric generator with rotating core, the drive of which is arranged as threaded rack, which is hingedly connected to mast and threaded wheel. Even though the design is quite simple, invention makes it possible to efficiently use energy of wind in case of any velocities and accelerations, up to the hurricane ones.

EFFECT: provision of efficient application of wind energy in case of its any velocities and accelerations, up to the hurricane ones.
