Description

Page (B) Wind Powered Electricity Facility. This is ideally a roof mounted (or mounted on high ground)'electricity producing facility where winds -activate a globe shaped air turbine (See Fig Di and Fig Bii) to spin above the roof (or above ground) level) around a vertical axle that penetrates below the roof (orgiiud levl) This metal'axle or shaft has a cylindrical metal drum attached to it below the roof level (or ground level); the drum spins together with the S axle and the 'globe' with the globe acting as the turbine in a wind driven manner. Hence this produces Mechanical energy to be converted to electrical power A Done shaped rain shelter (Fig Bi) has solar panels as cladding, which panels take advantage of solar power although wind power is the primary aim. The globe, mentioned above, is comprised of an array-of Crescent shaped wind vanes welded at the points of each crescent-shaped vane to the axle, a vertical shaft that is -mentioned above. (See Fig Bi, Fig B ii and B iii.) Each wind vane is crescent-shaped and has a concavity on one side and a convexity on the other (See Fig B iii). Thus when two of these crescent shaped vanes are welded in pairs on opposite sides of the vertical shaft we have an array of wind vanes around the shaft (Fig B ii, B iii). The general appearance is of a globe. When assembled as in Fig B ii and set up above a roof or highggound level) with greased Ball-bearings in a collar, through which the shaft penetrates, the effect of any wind will turn the globe with no great effort. Bceause of the crescent shape of the vanes there is a hollow in the interior of the globe, around. the axle or shaft when the vanes have been assembled. This improves the efficiency of the wind vanes as the inner void allows the wind to have a double effect on the vanes - on the way in and again on the way out. Besides the concavity on the one side of the paired vanes and the convexity of the other of the pairing further assists in the vanes being pushed by air both when entering and while exiting L5 the globe. The attached cylindrical metal dnn, at the lower end of the apparatus is designed to spin with the globe and axle and generate mechanical energy which is converted to electrical energy. The done shaped solar panel cladding rain shelter (Fig B i) is also attached to the shaftto benefit from Solar power. Therefore this facility benefits from both wind and from sunshine. This Wind Powered Electricity Facility is versatile enough to be installed in places other than on roofs and can also compete with the conventional method of Wind Joswejaan.AltlaeJhe ing ualitnnavbehanertcoCntuct *int domeswtb rnetal cylinders underground than giant metal Poies with woiings underground.
