WIND-GRAVITY ELECTRIC POWER STATION Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC F03D9/02 

FIELD: engines and pumps.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to power engineering and can be used for construction of electric power stations exploiting the wind and gravity energies. The proposed station comprises a vertical shaft with horizontal wind wheel attached thereto and arranged inside the pipe coupled with airflow concentrator. The latter represents two pyramidal plates connected by trapezoidal walls. There are double-leaf doors between aforesaid walls. The station accommodates electric generators with vertical shafts connected to their rotors. Wind wheel shaft and the shafts of electric generators accommodates the gears between which larger-diameter gears are fitted, in their turn, accommodating the drums whereon the cables are wound, passing through the pulleys fixed on the supports and through the pulleys that have weights suspended thereon. The drums gears can engage the wind wheel gear and gears of electric generator shafts by means of additional gears to be seated into gaps between the aforesaid gears. Note that all gears represent bevel pinions.

EFFECT: production of constant electric power.
