Abstract

227,937. Gardner, J. Oct. 27, 1923. Screw motors; regulating.- Relates to wind motors of the leeward, tail-less type described in Specifications 200,535, 206,945, and 210,001, and consists in means for improving the governor vane regulation, for reducing hunting of the windwheel caused by the interaction of the governor vane and the wheel, and for ensuring a leeward position of the wheel when the wind reverses its direction. The wheel blades 3 are given a leeward rake so that their tips lie more to leeward than their roots. The rake may lessen towards the tips, which may be bent to form spoon-shaped blades. The pilot vane 9, which is mounted on or geared to the shaft 8 of the governor vane 6 is inclined or curved, as described in Specification 206,945. A keel 11, preferably inclined to leeward, is secured on the governor vane, as described in Specification 210,001. A centrifugal governor may be provided, as described in Specification 200,535.
