Description

Device that uses water currents

and wind turbines to generate low-cost electricity without polluting.

Innovative for aquatic and wind propulsion systems DESCRIPTION The potential of wind currents, of aquatic ones and in particular of marine ones, are enormous and inexhaustible. Up to now, these have not been used adequately except in specific cases (see river dams that require water harnessing, etc.), as well as wind generators with propeller blades that use the flows transversely and not perpendicularly. The purpose of the present invention lies in the use of technologies capable of surpassing the results obtained so far. The device, which is easy to manufacture and implement, is illustrated with exemplary and schematic drawings. This is a structure (s) (not shown because it varies due to use requirements) where "a reel (s) are housed (the drawing is a cross section) with a large internal surface (f! G. 1) and with lateral embankments (fig. 2 The embankments are used to prevent lateral leakage of flows and the internal surface of the coil is used to house a series of hinged blades (fig. 3) (fig. 4), which rise and fall. When the blades are hit by the flows in their internal part, rise accepting the thrust from which the rotary motion is generated. The lift of the blades is adjusted by special limiters (fig. 5) in the right position to receive the maximum thrust: simultaneously in the opposite part of the reel , the blades receiving the thrust no longer inside, but outside, lower without accepting the thrust and without creating obstacles to the acquired rotation. The coil is suitably connected to a generator (fig. 6) which by rotating creates electrical energy. The devices i can be installed in an unlimited number with the most suitable features for the environment in terms of shape, size and complexity. See with multiple reels and blades on rotating belt. The innovation of the DEVICE rests on several fundamental points: 1 ° The thrust that the blade receives is PERPENDICULAR (and not transverse) thus managing to fully exploit the energy. 11 ° The thrust is exerted only on the blades that allow rotation and avoided by those that would prevent it. The

DEVICE in addition to producing energy, it can be used advantageously in substitution of propeller propulsion systems see SHIPS, VARIOUS boats etc., as well as aircraft. In fact, the device has various possibilities of applications and modifications to work at its best; compatibly with the needs of the various uses and places of use. Various and multiple are the support structures and accessories that can improve the performance: see wind or water rudders that orient the device to receive the thrust perpendicularly and not transversely; types of water surface, immersion or float operation; see wind and water conveyors (fig. 7) strategically connected, etc. These are not mentioned because they are already known but do not detract from the principle of the invention.

N.B. The device is simple to build, simple to install and transformer of electrical, mechanical energy, etc. it can be monitored, it can operate indefinitely, it is not polluting.

Claims (1)

CLAIMS DEVICE THAT USES AQUATIC CURRENTS AND THE WIND POWER TO GENERATE ELECTRICITY ALSO LOW COST WITHOUT POLLUTING. INNOVATIVE FOR WATER AND WIND PROPULSION SYSTEMS I) Device that makes use of a variable structure (s) containing one or more coils having embankments designed to convey the flows on the blades and to avoid lateral dispersions. II) Device according to the previous claim which makes use of rotating coils on whose internal surface there are blades cemierate at the base, which during rotation when they receive the thrust of the flows in their internal part, they rise, receive the thrust that creates the rotation of the coils: Vice versa when the blades receive the thrust in their external part they lower, they avoid the thrust without interrupting the acquired rotation. III) Device according to the preceding claims whereby the lift of the blades is adjusted by special limiters which places them in an optimal position to receive the best of the thrust of the flows. IV) Device according to the preceding claims which makes use of multiple accessories and mechanisms (various and known) such as windsocks, rudders and wind and water conveyors which orient the device to receive the thrust of flows in a perpendicular way, i.e. optimal for receiving and giving maximum power. The properly connected coil (s) produces electrical and mechanical energy without polluting.
