Abstract

1481699 Wind motors SEND ENG Ltd 14 April 1975 [26 April 1974] 18501/74 Heading F1T [Also in Division B7] A wind-powered land or, as shown, sea craft includes a rotor 2 on a shaft 4 driving a pair of contra-rotating shafts 6, 8 via a differential gear 10, the shafts powering the boat either directly via a gear-box 22 and screw 24, or indirectly, e.g. by driving a generator for an electric motor, or by a combination of both. As shown, the boat is a tri-maran, and the rotor 22 is kept facing into the wind by a vane 20. Again, Fig. 3 (not shown), the two shafts 6,8 drive a pair of generators which charge batteries for powering an electric motor driving a screw. A mesh protective screen encloses the lower part of the rotor.
