Description

本発明は風車に関するものであり、より詳しくは、心棒の軸線回りに旋回する翼体のピッチ角の最適化を図ると同時に翼断面の最適化を達成できて翼体の旋回効率を向上させ得る風車に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a windmill, and more specifically, it is possible to optimize the pitch angle of a wing body turning around the axis of a mandrel and at the same time achieve optimization of the blade cross section, thereby improving the turning efficiency of the wing body. It concerns windmills.

旋回する翼体のピッチ角の最適化を図ることにより翼体の旋回効率を向上させんとする風車の一例が、特開2006−152922号公報で開示されている。該風車は、支柱から見て風上側に位置した状態においては、翼体の翼弦を、旋回方向前部がその後部よりも支柱から遠い傾斜状態に設定すると共に、支柱から見て風下側に位置した状態においては、該翼弦を、旋回方向前部がその後部よりも支柱に近い傾斜状態に設定することにより翼体の旋回効率の向上を達成せんとするものであった。   An example of a wind turbine that improves the turning efficiency of a wing body by optimizing the pitch angle of the wing body that turns is disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2006-152922. In a state where the windmill is located on the windward side when viewed from the support column, the chord of the wing body is set to an inclined state in which the front part in the turning direction is farther from the support column than the rear part, and on the leeward side when viewed from the support unit. In the positioned state, the blade chord is set in an inclined state in which the front part in the turning direction is closer to the support column than the rear part, thereby improving the turning efficiency of the wing body.

しかしながら、かかる風車にあっては、該公報の図1〜図6に示されているように対称翼を用いる場合は、低周速比での性能低下が問題となっていた。ところで同公報の図7には、非対称翼を具える風車が開示されているが、かかる非対称翼を具える風車は翼断面の形状が旋回のどの時点をとらえても同一に固定されていたため、翼体が風上側に位置した状態と風下側に位置した状態の双方において共に旋回方向の回転トルクを効率的に発生させるということができず、その結果、翼の旋回効率の向上に限界があった。   However, in such a windmill, when symmetrical blades are used as shown in FIGS. 1 to 6 of the publication, performance degradation at a low peripheral speed ratio has been a problem. By the way, in FIG. 7 of the same publication, a windmill having asymmetric blades is disclosed, but the windmill having such asymmetric blades is fixed in the same way no matter what point of turn the blade cross-sectional shape is, In both the state where the wing body is located on the leeward side and the state where it is located on the leeward side, it is impossible to efficiently generate rotational torque in the turning direction, and as a result, there is a limit to improving the turning efficiency of the wing. It was.

本発明は以下の如き優れた効果を奏する。
(1) 本発明によるときは、ロータの1回転につき1周期となる翼体のピッチ角の制御と、ロータの1回転につき1周期となる翼断面の形状制御を行うことができ、これにより、順方向旋回時における正トルクの領域を最大化でき負トルクの領域を最小化できて、静止状態からの起動を速やかに行うことができると共に、ロータの旋回を効率的に行うことのできる風車を提供できることとなる。
より具体的に説明すれば、本発明によるときは、心棒から見て風上側では、翼体の翼弦を、旋回方向前部がその後部よりも心棒から遠い傾斜状態に設定できると同時に、その翼断面を、心棒に近い内方側の面を凸面に形成することによって該翼断面を翼弦に対して非対称型となし得る。一方、心棒から見て風下側では、翼体の翼弦を、旋回方向前部がその後部よりも心棒に近い傾斜状態に設定できると同時に、その翼断面を、心棒から遠い外方側の面を凸面に形成することによって該翼断面を翼弦に対して非対称型となし得る。
これらによって、風上側近辺及び風下側近辺の大部分の領域において、翼部材を失速状態とするような事態を招くことなく、旋回方向の回転トルクを効率的に発生させることができ、その結果、翼体の旋回効率が向上された風車を提供できることになる。
The present invention has the following excellent effects.
(1) According to the present invention, it is possible to control the pitch angle of the blade body that makes one cycle per rotation of the rotor and the shape control of the blade cross section that makes one cycle per rotation of the rotor, A wind turbine capable of maximizing the positive torque region during forward turning and minimizing the negative torque region, enabling quick start-up from a stationary state, and efficient turning of the rotor It can be provided.
More specifically, according to the present invention, on the windward side when viewed from the mandrel, the chord of the wing body can be set in an inclined state in which the front part in the turning direction is farther from the mandrel than the rear part, and at the same time, By forming the blade cross section with a convex surface on the inner side close to the mandrel, the blade cross section can be asymmetric with respect to the chord. On the other hand, on the leeward side when viewed from the mandrel, the blade chord of the wing body can be set in an inclined state where the front part in the swirl direction is closer to the mandrel than the rear part, and at the same time, the blade cross section Can be made asymmetric with respect to the chord.
By these, in most regions near the leeward side and near the leeward side, it is possible to efficiently generate the rotational torque in the turning direction without causing a situation where the wing member is in a stalled state. Thus, it is possible to provide a wind turbine with improved wing turning efficiency.

(2) 前記規制ロッドを、組み込まれた付勢手段の付勢力に抗して伸長し得るように構成したときは、前記翼体が風速の変動によって過大回転したときに、規制ロッドが遠心力の作用によって伸長できる。その結果、前記翼部材を、1回転中の大部分の領域で失速状態となし得、ロータを減速させることができる。そして、風速が通常状態に戻ることにより前記規制ロッドは当初の長さに戻るので、前記ロータは前記した正常旋回状態に自動復帰できる。 (2) When the restricting rod is configured to be able to extend against the urging force of the incorporated urging means, when the wing body is excessively rotated due to fluctuations in wind speed, the restricting rod is subjected to centrifugal force. Can be elongated by the action of As a result, the wing member can be in a stalled state in most of the region during one rotation, and the rotor can be decelerated. When the wind speed returns to the normal state, the restriction rod returns to the original length, so that the rotor can automatically return to the normal turning state.

(3) 前記風向制御装置が、前記偏心部を前記心棒の軸線回りに強制的に公転させることができ、該偏心部を任意の位置に向け得る強制制御手段を具えるときは、風速が大きくてロータが過大回転したとき、前記翼部材を失速状態となし得、ロータを減速乃至停止させることができる。 (3) When the wind direction control device is capable of forcibly revolving the eccentric portion around the axis of the mandrel and includes a forced control means capable of directing the eccentric portion to an arbitrary position, the wind speed is large. When the rotor rotates excessively, the blade member can be in a stalled state, and the rotor can be decelerated or stopped.

The cap member 82 has a flat cylindrical shape whose upper end is closed at the top surface portion 85 and whose lower end is opened. The cap member 82 is covered by the upper end portion 81 of the support column 2a, and has a built-in bearing 84. It can be freely rotated around the axis of the column 2a. An upper end 87 of the wind direction control shaft 16 is concentrically fixed to the lower surface 86 of the top surface portion 85 of the cap member 82. Then, on the upper surface 89 of the top surface portion 85 of the cap member 82, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 11, the axial line L1 of the column 2a (that is, the center of the top surface portion 85) and the eccentric amount L4 of 10 mm, The eccentric shaft 83 protrudes upward. A straight line (FIG. 11) L5 connecting the center 90 of the eccentric shaft 83 and the center 91 of the upper surface 89 of the cap member 82 substantially matches the extending direction of the arms 7, 9, 7, 9.

該偏心軸83には、内蔵のベアリング92を介して、該偏心軸83の軸線回りに回転し得る円板状取付け片93が設けられている。該円板状取付け片93の上面には図2、図10に示すように、前記偏心軸83を挿通させる挿通孔94が設けられて逆方向に突出する水平突出片95,95がボルトで固定されており、該水平突出片95,95の先端で、垂下片96,96が下方向に屈曲形成されている。そして該垂下片96の外面97には、水平な軸孔99が設けられた軸受部材100が突設されると共に該軸孔99は、該垂下片96の中央部に設けられた挿通孔101に連通されている。   The eccentric shaft 83 is provided with a disk-like mounting piece 93 that can rotate around the axis of the eccentric shaft 83 via a built-in bearing 92. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 10, an insertion hole 94 through which the eccentric shaft 83 is inserted is provided on the upper surface of the disk-shaped mounting piece 93, and horizontal protruding pieces 95, 95 protruding in the opposite direction are fixed with bolts.

A bearing member 100 provided with a horizontal shaft hole 99 protrudes from the outer surface 97 of the drooping piece 96 and the shaft hole 99 is inserted into an insertion hole 101 provided at the central portion of the drooping piece 96. It is communicated.

該垂下片96,96には、図2、図10に示すように、互いに逆方向に突出し且つ同一長さを有するする直棒状の規制ロッド本体(後述の規制ロッド111を構成する)102の基端側部分103が取り付けられている。該基端側部分103は、前記軸孔99と前記挿通孔101を挿通して、前記水平突出片95の下側で前記偏心軸83に向けて突出状態とされると共に、該基端側部分103の端部分105は、前記水平突出片95の下面に固定された緩衝器106に納められている。又、該基端側部分103には、該緩衝器106の稍外方部位でバネ受け鍔部107が設けられており、該バネ受け鍔部107と前記垂下片96との間に、コイルバネ(以下、基端側のコイルバネともいう)109aとしての付勢手段109が稍圧縮状態で介装されている。   As shown in FIGS. 2 and 10, the hanging pieces 96, 96 have a base of a straight rod-shaped restriction rod main body (which constitutes a restriction rod 111 described later) 102 protruding in opposite directions and having the same length. An end portion 103 is attached. The base end side portion 103 is inserted into the shaft hole 99 and the insertion hole 101 so as to protrude toward the eccentric shaft 83 below the horizontal protruding piece 95, and the base end side portion An end portion 105 of 103 is accommodated in a shock absorber 106 fixed to the lower surface of the horizontal protruding piece 95. Further, the base end portion 103 is provided with a spring receiving flange 107 at the outer side of the shock absorber 106, and a coil spring (between the spring receiving flange 107 and the drooping piece 96 is provided. An urging means 109 as 109a (hereinafter also referred to as a base end side coil spring) is interposed in a compressed state.

そして該規制ロッド本体102の先端部110には、図9、図5〜7に示すように、前記上の枠片25の前端側で突設された前記突出枢軸52が挿通され且つ該突出枢軸52の軸線回りに回転し得るベアリング108が設けられている。該規制ロッド本体102の先端部110が該ベアリング108を介して該突出枢軸52としての前記前側連結部53に連結されることにより、図1〜2に示すように、前記偏心軸83と前記突出枢軸52とが、前記規制ロッド本体102と前記水平突出片95と前記円板状取付け片93と前記基端側のコイルバネ109aとからなる規制ロッド111で連結状態とされている。   As shown in FIGS. 9 and 5 to 7, the protruding pivot 52 projecting from the front end side of the upper frame piece 25 is inserted into the distal end portion 110 of the restriction rod main body 102 and the protruding pivot is inserted. A bearing 108 is provided that can rotate about 52 axes. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the distal end portion 110 of the restriction rod main body 102 is connected to the front side connecting portion 53 as the protruding pivot 52 through the bearing 108, so that the eccentric shaft 83 and the protruding portion are connected. The pivot 52 is connected to a regulating rod 111 including the regulating rod main body 102, the horizontal projecting piece 95, the disc-like mounting piece 93, and the proximal-side coil spring 109a.

なお本実施例においては図1、図12に示すように、該規制ロッド本体102の基端寄り部分112に、その軸線方向にスライドにより移動し得る遠心力調整ウエイト113が設けられている。該規制ロッド本体102の該基端寄り部分112にはバネ受け部材115が固設され、該バネ受け部材115と該遠心力調整ウエイト113との間にコイルバネ(以下、中間のコイルバネともいう)116aとしての付勢手段116が介装されている。   In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 12, a centrifugal force adjusting weight 113 that can be moved by sliding in the axial direction is provided at the proximal end portion 112 of the regulating rod main body 102. A spring receiving member 115 is fixed to the proximal end portion 112 of the restriction rod main body 102, and a coil spring (hereinafter also referred to as an intermediate coil spring) 116a is provided between the spring receiving member 115 and the centrifugal force adjusting weight 113. As a biasing means 116 is interposed.

前記翼体27が風速の変動によって過大回転したときには、遠心力の作用によって、前記規制ロッド111が、例えば図13に示すように、前記基端側のコイルバネ109aをより圧縮状態にして伸長する。このとき前記遠心力調整ウエイト113が、例えば図14に示すように、前記中間のコイルバネ116aを圧縮状態にして規制ロッド先側に向けて移動するので、前記翼体27の質量が比較的小さい場合であっても比較的大きい遠心力が得られることとなり、これによって前記規制ロッド111が所要に伸長できる。なお、風速の小刻み変動に追随して規制ロッド111が小刻みに伸縮するとロータを損傷する恐れがあるため、前記緩衝器106でこれが防止されている。   When the wing body 27 rotates excessively due to fluctuations in wind speed, the restriction rod 111 extends due to the action of centrifugal force with the coil spring 109a on the base end side being more compressed as shown in FIG. 13, for example. At this time, as shown in FIG. 14, for example, as shown in FIG. 14, the centrifugal force adjusting weight 113 moves toward the regulating rod tip side with the intermediate coil spring 116a in a compressed state, so that the mass of the wing body 27 is relatively small. Even so, a relatively large centrifugal force can be obtained, whereby the restriction rod 111 can be extended as required. The shock absorber 106 prevents the rotor 106 from being damaged when the regulating rod 111 expands and contracts in small increments following the small fluctuations in the wind speed.

又、前記風向制御装置5は、図1〜2に示すように、前記偏心軸83の中心90と前記キャップ部材82の中心91とを結ぶ直線L5(図11)上で該偏心軸83から離れる方向に延長し且つ、前記アーム7,9の先端部分11,12を越えて更に突出する風向バー117を有し、その基端部119が該偏心軸83に固定されると共に、その先端に、垂直板状を呈する風向板120が設けられてなる。然して、風が吹いている状態では該風向板120が、前記支柱2aから見て風下側に位置することにより、前記偏心軸83が、前記支柱2aから見て風上側に位置することになる。   1 and 2, the wind direction control device 5 moves away from the eccentric shaft 83 on a straight line L5 (FIG. 11) connecting the center 90 of the eccentric shaft 83 and the center 91 of the cap member 82. A wind direction bar 117 extending in the direction and further protruding beyond the distal end portions 11 and 12 of the arms 7 and 9, a base end portion 119 of which is fixed to the eccentric shaft 83, A wind direction plate 120 having a vertical plate shape is provided. However, when the wind is blowing, the wind direction plate 120 is positioned on the leeward side when viewed from the support column 2a, so that the eccentric shaft 83 is positioned on the windward side when viewed from the support column 2a.

偏心軸(偏心部3)83がこのように風上側に位置せしめられた状態における翼部材13の風上側と風下側における状態を図15に基づいて説明する。なお図15(A)に示す矢印は風向を示し、図15(B)(C)に示す矢印は、例えば周速比が略2の場合の相対風向を示している。   The state on the windward side and the leeward side of the blade member 13 in a state where the eccentric shaft (eccentric part 3) 83 is positioned on the windward side in this way will be described with reference to FIG. The arrows shown in FIG. 15A indicate the wind direction, and the arrows shown in FIGS. 15B and 15C indicate the relative wind direction when the peripheral speed ratio is approximately 2, for example.

前記翼部材13が図15(A)の左側に示すように風上側に位置した状態にあっては、図15(A)(B)に示すように、前記規制ロッド111により、前記前部連結片49が前記支柱2aから遠ざかるように外方に移動せしめられる。これによって、前記翼体27の翼弦80が、図15(B)に示すように、前記旋回方向で見た前部121がその後部122よりも前記支柱2aから遠い傾斜状態(旋回円の接線方向に対して傾斜した状態)とされる。これと同時に、前記翼芯部材29がアーム7,9に固定状態にあることからして、前記翼体27の翼断面は、図15(B)に示すように、支柱2aに近い内方側の面118が凸面を呈した非対称を呈する如く変形せしめられる。   When the wing member 13 is positioned on the windward side as shown on the left side of FIG. 15 (A), as shown in FIGS. The piece 49 is moved outward so as to move away from the column 2a. As a result, the chord 80 of the wing body 27 is in an inclined state (tangent to the swirl circle), as shown in FIG. 15B, in which the front part 121 viewed in the turning direction is farther from the support column 2a than the rear part 122. State inclined with respect to the direction). At the same time, since the blade core member 29 is fixed to the arms 7 and 9, the blade section of the blade body 27 has an inner side close to the support 2a as shown in FIG. The surface 118 is deformed so as to exhibit an asymmetry with a convex surface.

一方、このように偏心軸(偏心部3)83が風上側に位置せしめられた状態において、前記翼部材13が図15(A)の右側に示すように風下側に位置した状態にあっては、図15(A)(C)に示すように、前記規制ロッド111が、前記前部連結片49が前記支柱2aに近づくように内方に移動せしめられる。これによって、前記翼体27の翼弦80が、図15(C)に示すように、前記旋回方向で見た前部121がその後部122よりも前記支柱2aに近い傾斜状態(旋回円の接線方向に対して傾斜した状態)とされる。これと同時に、前記翼芯部材29がアーム7,9に固定状態にあることからして、前記翼体27の翼断面は、図15(C)に示すように、支柱2aから遠い外方側の面123が凸面を呈した非対称を呈する如く変形せしめられる。   On the other hand, when the eccentric shaft (eccentric portion 3) 83 is positioned on the windward side as described above, the wing member 13 is positioned on the leeward side as shown on the right side of FIG. As shown in FIGS. 15A and 15C, the restriction rod 111 is moved inward so that the front connecting piece 49 approaches the support column 2a. As a result, the chord 80 of the wing body 27 is in an inclined state (tangent to the swirl circle) in which the front part 121 viewed in the swivel direction is closer to the support column 2a than the rear part 122, as shown in FIG. State inclined with respect to the direction). At the same time, since the blade core member 29 is fixed to the arms 7 and 9, the blade section of the blade body 27 has an outer side far from the support 2a as shown in FIG. The surface 123 is deformed so as to exhibit an asymmetry with a convex surface.

図16は、前記翼部材13が風上側にある状態からアーム部材10が90度回転した状態を示すものである。なお、図16(A)に示す矢印は風向を示し、図16(B)(C)に示す矢印は相対風向を示している。この状態においては、前記翼体27,27は相対風向に略沿う状態となり、ピッチ角が略ゼロとなる。   FIG. 16 shows a state in which the arm member 10 is rotated 90 degrees from the state in which the wing member 13 is on the windward side. In addition, the arrow shown to FIG. 16 (A) shows a wind direction, and the arrow shown to FIG. 16 (B) (C) has shown the relative wind direction. In this state, the wing bodies 27, 27 are in a state substantially along the relative wind direction, and the pitch angle is substantially zero.

このように、ロータ(2個の翼部材13,13とアーム部材10と上下の回転部6,6を具える部分)125(図1)の1回転につき1周期となる翼体27のピッチ角(前記翼弦80と前記旋回円の接線方向とのなす角)の制御と、ロータ125の1回転につき1周期となる翼断面の変形制御が行われることから、風上側近辺及び風下側近辺の大部分の領域において、翼部材を失速状態とするような事態を招くことなく、順方向旋回時における正トルク(ロータを旋回させるようとするトルク)の領域を最大化でき負トルク(ロータを制動させるトルク)の領域を最小化できることとなる。それ故、前記構成の風車1によるときは、静止状態からの起動が速やかに行われると共に、ロータ125が順方向に効率よく旋回できる。   Thus, the pitch angle of the wing body 27 is one cycle per one rotation of the rotor 125 (the portion including the two wing members 13 and 13, the arm member 10, and the upper and lower rotating parts 6 and 6). Since the control of the angle between the chord 80 and the tangential direction of the swirl circle and the deformation control of the blade cross section for one cycle per rotation of the rotor 125 are performed, the vicinity of the leeward side and the leeward side In most areas, the positive torque (torque to rotate the rotor) during forward turning can be maximized without negatively affecting the rotor (braking the rotor) without causing the blade member to stall. Torque) region can be minimized. Therefore, when the wind turbine 1 having the above-described configuration is used, start-up from a stationary state is quickly performed, and the rotor 125 can efficiently turn in the forward direction.

前記翼体27が、風速の変動によって過大回転したときには、前記のように、前記規制ロッド111が遠心力の作用によって伸長する。かかることから図17に示すように、前記翼体27が風上側に位置する状態では、ピッチ角が過大となり、前記翼体27が風下側に位置する状態では、ピッチ角が過少となる。図17(A)に示す矢印は風向を示し、図17(B)(C)に示す矢印は、例えば周速比が略4の場合の相対風向を示している。図18は、該翼体27が風向と略直角を呈する側に位置する状態を示している。図18(A)に示す矢印は風向を示し、図18(B)(C)に示す矢印は相対風向を示している。この状態ではピッチ角が発生することになるので、該翼体27が直角乃至その前後の角度範囲において失速状態になる。従って、順方向旋回に対する負トルクが増大して、前記のような正常な順方向の旋回が得られないことになる。その結果、ロータ125は減速されることになる。なお、風速が通常状態に戻ることにより前記規制ロッド111は当初の長さに戻るので、前記ロータ125は前記した正常旋回状態に自動復帰できる。   When the wing body 27 rotates excessively due to fluctuations in wind speed, as described above, the restriction rod 111 extends by the action of centrifugal force. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 17, the pitch angle is excessive when the wing body 27 is located on the leeward side, and the pitch angle is too small when the wing body 27 is located on the leeward side. The arrows shown in FIG. 17A indicate the wind direction, and the arrows shown in FIGS. 17B and 17C indicate the relative wind direction when the circumferential speed ratio is approximately 4, for example. FIG. 18 shows a state where the wing body 27 is located on the side substantially perpendicular to the wind direction. The arrows shown in FIG. 18A indicate the wind direction, and the arrows shown in FIGS. 18B and 18C indicate the relative wind direction. In this state, a pitch angle is generated, so that the wing body 27 is stalled in a right angle or an angular range around it. Accordingly, the negative torque for the forward turn increases, and the normal forward turn as described above cannot be obtained. As a result, the rotor 125 is decelerated. Note that when the wind speed returns to the normal state, the restriction rod 111 returns to the original length, so that the rotor 125 can automatically return to the normal turning state.

風速が大きくてロータ125が過大回転したときは、前記偏心部3を風下側に向けるための強制制御手段を作動させる。該強制制御手段は、前記風向バー117を水平面内で強制回転させる手段からなる。然して、前記風向バー117を手で持って水平面内で強制回転操作することによって、又は、前記風向制御軸16の前記操作軸部19を手動や作動装置で強制回転操作して前記風向バー117を強制回転操作することよって、前記偏心軸83を前記支柱2aの軸線回りに所要角度公転させると、この公転角度に応じて、前記翼体27のピッチ角と翼断面を変えることができ、ロータ125を停止させることができる。   When the wind speed is high and the rotor 125 rotates excessively, a forcible control means for directing the eccentric portion 3 toward the leeward side is operated. The forced control means includes means for forcibly rotating the wind direction bar 117 in a horizontal plane. However, by holding the wind direction bar 117 by hand and forcibly rotating it in a horizontal plane, or by forcibly rotating the operating shaft portion 19 of the wind direction control shaft 16 manually or by an operating device, the wind direction bar 117 is moved. When the eccentric shaft 83 is revolved by a required angle around the axis of the support column 2a by the forced rotation operation, the pitch angle and blade cross section of the blade body 27 can be changed according to the revolution angle, and the rotor 125 Can be stopped.

前記風向バー117を回転させる角度に応じて、緩和減速から急減速まで所望に選択できるのであるが、前記風向バー117を風上側に180度回転させた場合について説明すれば次のようである。即ち、180度回転させた場合は前記偏心軸83が風下側に位置することになるため、前記翼部材13が風上側に位置する状態においては、図19(A)に示すように、前記規制ロッド111により、前記前部連結片49が前記支柱2aに近づくように移動せしめられる。図19(A)において、風向を矢印で示している。これによって、前記翼体27の翼弦80が、前記旋回方向で見た前部121がその後部122よりも前記支柱2aに近い傾斜状態(旋回円の接線方向に対して傾斜した状態)とされる。これと同時に、前記翼体27の翼断面は、図19(B)に示すように、支柱2aから遠い外方側の面123が凸面を呈した非対称を呈する如く変形せしめられる。   Depending on the angle at which the wind direction bar 117 is rotated, it is possible to select as desired from relaxation deceleration to sudden deceleration. The case where the wind direction bar 117 is rotated 180 degrees to the windward side will be described as follows. That is, since the eccentric shaft 83 is positioned on the leeward side when rotated 180 degrees, as shown in FIG. 19A, the regulation shaft 83 is in the state where the wing member 13 is positioned on the leeward side. The rod 111 moves the front connecting piece 49 so as to approach the support column 2a. In FIG. 19A, the wind direction is indicated by an arrow. As a result, the chord 80 of the wing body 27 is in a tilted state (a state tilted with respect to the tangential direction of the swirl circle) in which the front part 121 viewed in the turning direction is closer to the support column 2a than the rear part 122. The At the same time, as shown in FIG. 19B, the blade section of the wing body 27 is deformed so that the outer surface 123 far from the support column 2a has an asymmetrical appearance.

そして、前記翼部材13が風下側に位置する状態においては、図19(C)に示すように、前記規制ロッド111により、前記前部連結片49が前記支柱2aから遠ざかるように外方に移動せしめられる。これによって、前記翼体27の翼弦80が、前記旋回方向で見た前部121がその後部122よりも前記支柱2aから遠い傾斜状態(旋回円の接線方向に対して傾斜した状態)とされる。これと同時に、前記翼体27の翼断面は、図19(C)に示すように、支柱2aに近い内方側の面118が凸面を呈した非対称を呈する如く変形せしめられる。   In the state where the wing member 13 is located on the leeward side, as shown in FIG. 19C, the front connecting piece 49 is moved outward by the restriction rod 111 so as to move away from the support column 2a. I'm damned. As a result, the chord 80 of the wing body 27 is in an inclined state (a state inclined with respect to the tangential direction of the turning circle) in which the front part 121 seen in the turning direction is farther from the support column 2a than the rear part 122. The At the same time, as shown in FIG. 19C, the blade cross section of the blade body 27 is deformed so that the inner surface 118 near the support column 2a exhibits an asymmetrical shape having a convex surface.

従って、風上側の翼体及び風下側の翼体は共に、失速状態となって、旋回方向と逆方向のトルクが増大して減速し乃至停止することになる。このように、前記風向制御装置5は、過大な風速に対しては翼体27を失速させて風車1を停止させる安全装置の構成要素ともなっている。   Therefore, both the wing body on the windward side and the wing body on the leeward side are stalled, and the torque in the direction opposite to the turning direction is increased to decelerate or stop. Thus, the wind direction control device 5 is also a component of a safety device that stops the wind turbine 1 by stalling the wing body 27 against an excessive wind speed.

図20〜21は、前記実施例において、前記規制ロッド111の連結状態を変更した態様のものである。   FIGS. 20-21 are the things which changed the connection state of the said control rod 111 in the said Example.

より具体的に説明すれば、図20、図21(A)は、前記回動連結部70の後側に位置させて設けた、例えば上方への突出枢軸としての後側連結部108と、前記偏心部(本実施例においては偏心軸83)3とが規制ロッド111で連結された状態を示している。この場合は、同図に示すように、該偏心部3は、前記風向制御装置5の制御作用によって、風下側に位置せしめられる。なお図21(A)において、風向を矢印で示している。   More specifically, FIG. 20 and FIG. 21 (A) show the rear connecting portion 108 as an upward projecting pivot provided on the rear side of the rotating connecting portion 70, for example, The eccentric part (eccentric shaft 83 in this embodiment) 3 is shown in a state of being connected by a restriction rod 111. In this case, as shown in the figure, the eccentric portion 3 is positioned on the leeward side by the control action of the wind direction control device 5. In FIG. 21A, the wind direction is indicated by an arrow.

図21(B)は、前記翼部材13が風上側に位置する状態を示し、前記規制ロッド111を介して前記上下の枠片25,26が回動することにより、前記前部連結片49が、前記心棒(支柱2a)2から遠ざかるように外方に移動され、前記翼体27の翼弦80が、前記旋回方向で見た前部121がその後部122よりも該支柱2aから遠い傾斜状態とされている。そして、このように外方に移動することよって、前記翼体27の翼断面が、支柱2aに近い内方側の面118が凸面に形成され且つ該翼断面が翼弦80に対して非対称を呈する如く変形している。   FIG. 21B shows a state in which the wing member 13 is located on the windward side, and the upper and lower frame pieces 25 and 26 are rotated via the restriction rod 111, whereby the front connecting piece 49 is The chord 80 of the wing body 27 is moved outward so as to move away from the mandrel (support 2a) 2, and the front portion 121 seen in the turning direction is inclined farther from the support 2a than the rear portion 122. It is said that. By moving outward in this way, the blade section of the wing body 27 is formed such that the inner surface 118 close to the support post 2a is convex and the blade section is asymmetric with respect to the chord 80. It is deformed as shown.

又図21(C)は、前記翼部材13が風下側に位置する状態を示し、前記規制ロッド111を介して前記上下の枠片25,26が回動することによって、前記前部連結片49が前記支柱2aに近づくように内方に移動され、前記翼体27の翼弦80が、前記旋回方向で見た前部121がその後部122よりも前記支柱2aに近い傾斜状態にされている。そしてこのように内方に移動されることよって、前記翼体27の翼断面が、支柱2aから遠い外方側の面123が凸面に形成されて該翼断面が翼弦80に対して非対称を呈する如く変形している。   FIG. 21C shows a state in which the wing member 13 is located on the leeward side, and the upper and lower frame pieces 25, 26 are rotated via the restriction rod 111, so that the front connection piece 49. Is moved inward so as to approach the support column 2a, and the chord 80 of the wing body 27 is inclined such that the front portion 121 viewed in the turning direction is closer to the support column 2a than the rear portion 122. . By moving inwardly in this way, the blade section of the wing body 27 is formed with a convex surface 123 on the outer side far from the support post 2a, and the blade section is asymmetric with respect to the chord 80. It is deformed as shown.

図22は、本発明に係る風車1の他の実施例を示すものであり、心棒2が水平状態に配置されている。該心棒2は、本実施例においては中空鋼管を以って形成されており、図示しない架台に設けられた左右の支持部126,126の上端に設けられた軸受127,127で支持され、通常の運転状態では軸線回りには回転しない状態で支持されている。そして図23〜24に示すように、該水平状態の心棒2の、該軸受127,127の内方側において、円板状を呈する偏心固定板129,129が、その中心(偏心部3)130を該心棒2の中心128と例えば10mm程度偏心させた状態で固定されており、該心棒2に対する左右の偏心固定板129,129の固定状態は左右対称である。   FIG. 22 shows another embodiment of the wind turbine 1 according to the present invention, in which the mandrel 2 is arranged in a horizontal state. The mandrel 2 is formed with a hollow steel pipe in this embodiment, and is supported by bearings 127 and 127 provided at upper ends of left and right support portions 126 and 126 provided on a gantry (not shown). In the operation state of, it is supported without rotating around the axis. As shown in FIGS. 23 to 24, on the inner side of the bearings 127, 127 of the horizontal mandrel 2, eccentric fixing plates 129, 129 having a disk shape are the centers (eccentric part 3) 130. Is fixed to the center 128 of the mandrel 2 in a state of being decentered by, for example, about 10 mm, and the right and left eccentric fixing plates 129 and 129 are fixed to the mandrel 2 in a symmetrical manner.

The outer ring 135 of the bearing 132 is fixed to the inner surface of the fitting recess 137 of the mounting member 136, so that the mounting member 136 can rotate in an eccentric state with respect to the mandrel 2. As shown in FIGS. 22 to 25, mounting plates 139 and 139 projecting in the opposite directions are provided on the outer surface 138 of the mounting member 136, and the tips thereof are directed inward in the axial direction of the mandrel 2. The bent mounting pieces 140 and 140 are provided.

そして図22に示すように、前記支持部126,126の内側において、前記心棒2の左右側に設けられた左右の回転部(本実施例においてはベアリング6b,6b)6,6を介して、アーム部材10が設けられている。該アーム部材10は、該心棒2の軸線と直交する状態で心棒2の両側に突出した左右のアーム7,9、7,9からなり、該アーム部材10は、該回転部6,6(ベアリング6b,6b)を介して前記心棒2の軸線回りに回転できる。そして、例えば一方の回転部を出力用として利用できる。   As shown in FIG. 22, inside the support portions 126, 126, left and right rotating portions (in the present embodiment, bearings 6 b, 6 b) 6, 6 provided on the left and right sides of the mandrel 2, An arm member 10 is provided. The arm member 10 includes left and right arms 7, 9, 7, 9 projecting on both sides of the mandrel 2 in a state orthogonal to the axis of the mandrel 2, and the arm member 10 includes the rotating parts 6, 6 (bearing 6b, 6b) can be rotated around the axis of the mandrel 2. For example, one of the rotating parts can be used for output.

前記左右のアーム7,9の先端部分11,12に翼部材13が設けられており、該翼部材13は、前記アーム部材10が前記心棒2の軸線回りに一方向に回転するに伴って、該軸線回りに一方向(順方向)に旋回できるようになされている。   The wing members 13 are provided at the tip portions 11 and 12 of the left and right arms 7 and 9, and the wing members 13 are rotated in one direction around the axis of the mandrel 2. It can turn in one direction (forward direction) around the axis.

該翼部材13の構成は、基本的には前記実施例で示したと同様であり、翼体27は、図22に示すように、該左右一対のアーム7,9の対向方向に延長する翼芯部材29の長さ方向の両端側(本実施例においては左右端)が該左右のアーム7,9に固定されている。そして、左右の枠片25,26の夫々が、該翼芯部材29に、該アーム7,9の対向方向(左右方向)に延長する同一の回動軸線回りで回動可能となるように回動連結部144,144で連結されている。   The structure of the wing member 13 is basically the same as that shown in the above embodiment, and the wing body 27 has a wing core extending in the opposing direction of the pair of left and right arms 7 and 9, as shown in FIG. Both end sides in the length direction of the member 29 (left and right ends in this embodiment) are fixed to the left and right arms 7 and 9. Then, each of the left and right frame pieces 25 and 26 is rotated so that the blade core member 29 can rotate about the same rotation axis extending in the opposing direction (left and right direction) of the arms 7 and 9. They are connected by dynamic connecting portions 144 and 144.

又、前記旋回方向で見て前記翼芯部材29の後側において、前記対向する枠片25,26相互が後部連結片45で連結されており、その前側に位置させて、該枠片25,26相互を連結するように前部連結片49が設けられると共に、該前部連結片49の左右突出枢軸52,52としての前側連結部53,53と前記左右の偏心部3,3とが規制ロッド111,111で連結されている。該規制ロッド111は前記実施例におけるものと略同様の構成を有しており、その基端側部分103が、図25に示すように、コイルバネ109aとしての付勢手段109を介して取付け片140に連結され、又、遠心力調整ウエイト113がコイルバネ116aとしての付勢手段116を介して該規制ロッド111に取り付けられている。そして、該対向する左右の枠片25,26間で、該後部連結片45と前記翼芯部材29と前記前部連結片49とを周方向に包囲するようにカバー片79(図22)が張設状態に取り付けられることによって翼体27が形成されている。   In addition, on the rear side of the blade core member 29 when viewed in the turning direction, the opposing frame pieces 25 and 26 are connected to each other by a rear connection piece 45, and the frame pieces 25 and 26 are positioned on the front side thereof. 26. A front connection piece 49 is provided so as to connect each other, and the front connection parts 53, 53 as the left and right protruding pivots 52, 52 of the front connection piece 49 and the left and right eccentric parts 3, 3 are restricted. The rods 111 and 111 are connected. The restriction rod 111 has substantially the same configuration as that in the above-described embodiment, and its base end side portion 103 has a mounting piece 140 via a biasing means 109 as a coil spring 109a as shown in FIG. Further, a centrifugal force adjusting weight 113 is attached to the regulating rod 111 via a biasing means 116 as a coil spring 116a. A cover piece 79 (FIG. 22) is provided between the opposing left and right frame pieces 25 and 26 so as to surround the rear connecting piece 45, the blade core member 29, and the front connecting piece 49 in the circumferential direction. The wing body 27 is formed by being attached in a stretched state.

本実施例においては、このように心棒2の両端側に偏心部3,3を設け、翼芯部材29の両端側において、前側連結部(突出枢軸52)53と偏心部3とを規制ロッド111で連結しているため、翼体27の翼断面の変形をより安定的に行うことができる。なお風車1が小型の場合は、心棒2の一端側にのみ偏心部3を設け、該一端側でのみ規制ロッド111を配設することもある。   In the present embodiment, the eccentric portions 3 and 3 are thus provided on both ends of the mandrel 2, and the front connecting portion (projecting pivot shaft 52) 53 and the eccentric portion 3 are connected to the regulating rod 111 on both ends of the blade core member 29. Therefore, the blade cross section of the wing body 27 can be more stably deformed. When the windmill 1 is small, the eccentric portion 3 may be provided only on one end side of the mandrel 2 and the regulating rod 111 may be provided only on the one end side.

そして本実施例においては、風向センサの検知信号を受けて作動するギヤードモータ等の駆動制御手段を具える風向制御装置(図示せず)によって、前記偏心部3が風上側に存する如く風向制御が行われる。図22において風向Fを矢印で示している。   In this embodiment, the wind direction control device (not shown) including drive control means such as a geared motor that operates in response to the detection signal of the wind direction sensor controls the wind direction so that the eccentric portion 3 exists on the windward side. Done. In FIG. 22, the wind direction F is indicated by an arrow.

かかる構成の風車1によるときも、前記実施例におけると同様の作用によってロータの一回転につき1周期となる翼体27のピッチ角の制御と、ロータ125の1回転につき1周期となる翼断面の変形制御が行われることから、順方向旋回時における正トルクの領域を最大化でき負トルクの領域を最小化できることとなる。それ故、前記構成の風車1によるときには、静止状態からの起動を速やかに行うことができると共に、ロータ125が順方向に効率よく旋回できる。   Even with the wind turbine 1 having such a configuration, the pitch angle of the blade body 27 is controlled by one cycle per rotation of the rotor and the blade cross section is rotated by one cycle per rotation of the rotor 125 by the same operation as in the above embodiment. Since deformation control is performed, the positive torque region during forward turning can be maximized, and the negative torque region can be minimized. Therefore, when the wind turbine 1 having the above-described configuration is used, it is possible to quickly start from the stationary state and to efficiently turn the rotor 125 in the forward direction.

そして、前記翼体27が風速の変動によって過大回転したときには、規制ロッド111が遠心力の作用によって伸長し、その結果、前記と同様の作用によって、翼部材13が風上側に位置した状態にあっても風下側に位置した状態にあっても共に、多くの領域において失速状態となり、旋回方向と逆向きのトルクが増大して、前記のような正常な順方向の旋回が得られなくなり、ロータ125は減速されることになる。なお、風速が通常状態に戻ることにより前記規制ロッド111は当初の長さに戻るので、前記ロータ125は前記した正常旋回状態に自動復帰できる。   When the wing body 27 rotates excessively due to fluctuations in wind speed, the restriction rod 111 extends due to the action of centrifugal force. As a result, the wing member 13 is positioned on the windward side by the same action as described above. However, even in the state of being located on the leeward side, the stalled state occurs in many areas, the torque in the direction opposite to the turning direction increases, and the normal forward turning as described above cannot be obtained. 125 will be decelerated. Note that when the wind speed returns to the normal state, the restriction rod 111 returns to the original length, so that the rotor 125 can automatically return to the normal turning state.

又、風速が大きくてロータ125が過大回転したときは、風速センサの検知信号を受けて作動するギヤードモータ等の強制制御手段によって、前記偏心部3を風下側等、任意の位置に向けることができる。この位置の設定によって前記翼体27の受ける風力を変えることができ、ロータ125を減速乃至停止させることができる。   Further, when the wind speed is high and the rotor 125 is excessively rotated, the eccentric portion 3 can be directed to an arbitrary position such as the leeward side by forced control means such as a geared motor that operates in response to a detection signal of the wind speed sensor. it can. By setting this position, the wind force received by the wing body 27 can be changed, and the rotor 125 can be decelerated or stopped.

なお、本実施例に係る風車1において、前記水平状態の心棒2を、その軸線回りに回転調節可能となるように前記軸受127,127に支持させるときは、該風車1を傾斜地に設置した場合において、前記偏心部3と前記心棒2の中心とを結ぶ直線が該傾斜地の傾斜面と平行状態となるように、即ち、前記偏心部3が該傾斜面の傾斜方向の風上側に位置した状態となるように、前記心棒2を回転調節しその状態を固定することにより、該傾斜面を上昇する風をより有効に活用して翼体27の旋回効率の向上を期し得ることとなる。又このように構成するときは、該風車を洋上に設置した場合、設置面の揺れを前記心棒2を回転調節することで吸収できることとなり、翼体27の旋回効率の向上を期し得ることとなる。   In the wind turbine 1 according to this embodiment, when the horizontal mandrel 2 is supported by the bearings 127 and 127 so as to be able to adjust the rotation around its axis, the wind turbine 1 is installed on an inclined ground. , So that the straight line connecting the eccentric portion 3 and the center of the mandrel 2 is parallel to the inclined surface of the inclined land, that is, the eccentric portion 3 is located on the windward side in the inclination direction of the inclined surface Thus, by rotating and adjusting the mandrel 2 and fixing its state, it is possible to improve the turning efficiency of the wing body 27 by effectively utilizing the wind rising up the inclined surface. Further, when configured in this manner, when the windmill is installed on the ocean, it is possible to absorb the swing of the installation surface by adjusting the rotation of the mandrel 2 and to improve the turning efficiency of the wing body 27. .

本発明は、前記実施例で示したものに限定されるものでは決してなく、「特許請求の範囲」の記載内で種々の設計変更が可能であることはいうまでもない。その一例を挙げれば次のようである。   The present invention is by no means limited to those shown in the above-described embodiments, and it goes without saying that various design changes can be made within the scope of the claims. One example is as follows.

(1) 前記の各実施例においては、前記対向する枠片25,26の夫々の稍後側部位を、前記アーム7,9の先端部分11,12に、該一対のアーム7,9の対向方向に延長する同一回動軸線回りで回動可能となるように回動連結部で連結しているが、前記前部連結片49と前記後部連結片45と間の所要部位、例えば中央部位や前側部位において回動連結部70で連結すればよい。 (1) In each of the embodiments described above, the rear side portions of the opposing frame pieces 25 and 26 are opposed to the tip portions 11 and 12 of the arms 7 and 9, respectively, and the pair of arms 7 and 9 are opposed to each other. Although it is connected by a rotation connecting part so as to be rotatable around the same rotation axis extending in the direction, a required part between the front connecting piece 49 and the rear connecting piece 45, for example, a central part or What is necessary is just to connect with the rotation connection part 70 in a front side part.

(2) 図26は、実施例1に係る風車1の前記支柱2aの下端側部分にも偏心部3を設けた構成を示すものであり、前記翼部材13の前側連結部53と該偏心部3とが規制ロッド111で連結されている。なお、該偏心部3の構成と作用は、前記実施例2における場合と同様であるためその詳細な説明を省略する。 (2) FIG. 26 shows a configuration in which the eccentric portion 3 is also provided at the lower end side portion of the support 2a of the wind turbine 1 according to the first embodiment. The front side connecting portion 53 of the wing member 13 and the eccentric portion 3 is connected by a restriction rod 111. Since the configuration and operation of the eccentric portion 3 are the same as those in the second embodiment, detailed description thereof is omitted.

(3) 図27は、偏心部3の他の構成を示すものであり、支柱2aとしての心棒2に設けたクランク部142の垂直支柱部143を以って偏心部3としている。水平方向の心棒2にあっても同様に構成できる。 (3) FIG. 27 shows another configuration of the eccentric portion 3, and the eccentric portion 3 is constituted by the vertical column portion 143 of the crank portion 142 provided on the mandrel 2 as the column 2 a. The horizontal mandrel 2 can be similarly configured.

(4) 図28(A)(B)は、前記翼体27の、前記旋回方向で見た前側部分において、前記翼芯部材29と前記前部連結片49との間を構成するカバー片部分145の内、前記心棒2側をなす内側カバー部146を厚肉に構成した態様を示すものである。本実施例においては、前記カバー片79と同一素材からなり且つ翼体27の上下方向に延長するシート状の質量増大片147を融着等により固着することによって、前記内側カバー部146を厚肉に構成している。
このようにして前記内側カバー部146の質量を増大させる場合は、前記翼部材13が旋回することに伴う遠心力の作用によって、前記内側カバー部146と対向する外側カバー部149が外方向に過大に膨らみ傾向となるときに、例えば図28(C)に示すように、質量が増大された該内側カバー部146が外方向に凹み変形することになる。そのため、該外側カバー部146が前記前部連結片49の周面50をスリップして内側に引っ張られることとなり、結果的に、前記外側カバー部149の張力が高められて、その膨らみ変形が抑制されることになる。かかることから、翼体27の翼断面をより最適状態に維持させながら翼部材13の旋回を可能となし得る利点がある。
(4) FIGS. 28 (A) and 28 (B) show a cover piece portion that constitutes between the blade core member 29 and the front connection piece 49 in the front portion of the wing body 27 viewed in the turning direction. 145 shows an embodiment in which the inner cover portion 146 on the mandrel 2 side is configured to be thick. In this embodiment, a sheet-like mass increasing piece 147 made of the same material as the cover piece 79 and extending in the vertical direction of the wing body 27 is fixed by fusion or the like, so that the inner cover portion 146 is thickened. It is configured.
When the mass of the inner cover part 146 is increased in this way, the outer cover part 149 facing the inner cover part 146 is excessively extended outward due to the action of centrifugal force accompanying the turning of the wing member 13. For example, as shown in FIG. 28C, the inner cover portion 146 having an increased mass is recessed outwardly and deformed. Therefore, the outer cover part 146 slips on the peripheral surface 50 of the front connecting piece 49 and is pulled inward, and as a result, the tension of the outer cover part 149 is increased and the bulging deformation is suppressed. Will be. Therefore, there is an advantage that the wing member 13 can be swiveled while maintaining the blade section of the wing body 27 in a more optimal state.

(5) 本発明において前記翼体27は、カバー片79が、前記前部連結片49と前記翼芯部材29を包み且つ前記後部連結片45に取り付けられることによって構成されればよいのであり、例えば図29に示すように、前記前部連結片49と前記翼芯部材29を包むように設けられたカバー片79の両端部分150,150を前記後部連結片45の両側部151,151に接着等により取り付けることによって構成することもある。 (5) In the present invention, the wing body 27 may be configured by a cover piece 79 wrapping the front connection piece 49 and the wing core member 29 and attached to the rear connection piece 45. For example, as shown in FIG. 29, both end portions 150 and 150 of a cover piece 79 provided so as to wrap the front connecting piece 49 and the blade core member 29 are bonded to both side portions 151 and 151 of the rear connecting piece 45. It may also be configured by mounting.

(6) 前記カバー片79は、前記枠片25,26の回動によって翼体27の翼断面が変形できる可撓性を具備することが必須であるが、該翼体27は、剛体としての前記翼芯部材29を具えるために、該カバー片79としては、質量の小さい材料を以って構成することが可能となり、これによって翼体27の軽量化を達成でき、翼体27の旋回効率の向上に寄与できる。例えば0.4kg/m2 〜1.5kg/m2 のものを採用でき、前記実施例においては0.4kg/m2 のものを用いている。 (6) It is essential that the cover piece 79 has flexibility so that the blade section of the wing body 27 can be deformed by the rotation of the frame pieces 25 and 26, but the wing body 27 is a rigid body. Since the blade core member 29 is provided, the cover piece 79 can be made of a material having a small mass, whereby the weight of the wing body 27 can be reduced, and the rotation of the wing body 27 can be achieved. Contributes to improved efficiency. For example it can be employed those 0.4kg / m 2 ~1.5kg / m 2 , in the embodiment is used as the 0.4 kg / m 2.

(7) 本発明に係る風車1は、前記翼部材13が1個とされることもあり、3個や4個等の複数個とされることもある。そして、各翼部材13を構成する前側連結部53と前記心棒2に設けた偏心部3とが規制ロッド111で連結される。 (7) In the wind turbine 1 according to the present invention, the wing member 13 may be one, or a plurality of three or four. And the front side connection part 53 which comprises each wing | blade member 13, and the eccentric part 3 provided in the said mandrel 2 are connected by the control rod 111. FIG.

(8) この場合、該偏心部3に対する該規制ロッド111の基端側部分103の回動可能の連結は、個別的に行われてもよい。図30は、前記心棒2が支柱2aである場合において、実施例1におけると同様にして設けられた偏心軸(偏心部3)83の上下に、ベアリング等の回動手段を介して該基端側部分103を独立的に連結した場合を示している。このような構成は、心棒2が水平状態に配設される場合にも応用され得る。 (8) In this case, the pivotable connection of the base end side portion 103 of the restriction rod 111 to the eccentric portion 3 may be performed individually. FIG. 30 shows the case where the mandrel 2 is a support column 2a, and the base end of the eccentric shaft (eccentric portion 3) 83 provided in the same manner as in the first embodiment via a rotating means such as a bearing. The case where the side part 103 is connected independently is shown. Such a configuration can also be applied when the mandrel 2 is disposed in a horizontal state.

(9) 図31は、前記翼芯部材29の上端30を前記上のアーム7の先端部分11よりも上方に位置させると共に、その下端31を前記下のアーム9の先端部分12よりも下方に位置させた場合を示すものであり、該翼芯部材29の側面部152に上下のアーム7,9の先端部分11,12が固着されている。このように構成する場合、前記カバー片79は、該上下の先端部分11,12を避けて取り付けられる。このように構成するときは、翼体27の上下長さを上下のアーム7,9間の間隔によらず、出来るだけ長く形成できる利点がある。かかる構成は、心棒2が水平状態に配置される場合にも同様に採用され得る。 (9) FIG. 31 shows that the upper end 30 of the blade core member 29 is positioned above the distal end portion 11 of the upper arm 7 and the lower end 31 thereof is lower than the distal end portion 12 of the lower arm 9. The tip portions 11 and 12 of the upper and lower arms 7 and 9 are fixed to the side surface portion 152 of the blade core member 29. In the case of such a configuration, the cover piece 79 is attached while avoiding the upper and lower tip portions 11 and 12. When configured in this way, there is an advantage that the vertical length of the wing body 27 can be formed as long as possible regardless of the distance between the upper and lower arms 7 and 9. Such a configuration can be similarly adopted when the mandrel 2 is arranged in a horizontal state.

(10)後部連結片45は、要は、前記翼芯部材29の後側において、対向する枠片25,26相互を連結できるものであればよいのであり、軸状を呈するものであってもよい。又、前記前部連結片49は、要は、前記翼芯部材29の前側において、対向する枠片25,26相互を連結できるものであればよいのであり、前端部分が丸味を帯びたものであれば横断面が楕円形状を呈する軸状を呈するものや板状を呈するものであってもよい。 (10) The rear connection piece 45 may be anything as long as it can connect the opposing frame pieces 25 and 26 to each other on the rear side of the blade core member 29, and may have an axial shape. Good. The front connecting piece 49 may be anything as long as it can connect the opposing frame pieces 25 and 26 on the front side of the blade core member 29, and the front end portion is rounded. If present, the cross section may have an elliptical shape or a plate shape.

(11)前記翼芯部材29の横断面形状は、前記した楕円形状を呈するものの他、断面円形状や、丸みを帯びた矩形状等を呈するものであってもよい。又、該翼芯部材29は、前記したような一体の管体等の棒状部材として構成されることの他、複数本の管体等の棒状部材を組み合わせて構成してもよい。 (11) The cross-sectional shape of the blade core member 29 may be a cross-sectional circular shape, a rounded rectangular shape, or the like in addition to the elliptical shape described above. Further, the blade core member 29 may be configured by combining a plurality of rod-shaped members such as a tubular body in addition to the rod-shaped member such as an integral tubular body as described above.

(12)前記実施例1における場合において、前記支柱2aは、風車の運転状態においてもその軸線回りの回転が許されないものではない。 (12) In the case of the first embodiment, the strut 2a is not allowed to rotate around its axis even in the windmill operating state.

(13)前記回動連結部70,76,144は、対向する枠片25,26の夫々を、これに対向するアームの先端部分11と前記翼芯部材29との一体化物に、該一対のアームの対向方向に延長する同一回動軸線回りで回動可能となるように連結できるものであればよいのであり、前記翼芯部材29に連結されることもある。そして、該回動連結具は、前記した回動ジョイント具の他、ベアリングやブシュで支持された軸体等を以って構成することもできる。 (13) The rotation connecting portions 70, 76, 144 are formed by combining the opposing frame pieces 25, 26 into an integrated body of the distal end portion 11 of the arm and the blade core member 29 facing each other. Any member that can be connected so as to be rotatable around the same rotation axis extending in the opposing direction of the arm may be used, and may be connected to the blade core member 29. And this rotation coupling tool can also be comprised with the shaft body etc. which were supported with the bearing and the bush other than the above-mentioned rotation joint tool.

(14)心棒2である前記支柱をその軸線回りに回転可能に構成するときは、前記偏心部3を該心棒2に一体に設ける場合、風向制御装置5によって該偏心部3を風上側に位置させる際、該心棒2をその軸線回りに回動させることによって風向制御を行うことができる。 (14) When the support column that is the mandrel 2 is configured to be rotatable about its axis, when the eccentric part 3 is provided integrally with the mandrel 2, the eccentric part 3 is positioned on the windward side by the wind direction control device 5. When this is done, the wind direction can be controlled by rotating the mandrel 2 about its axis.

(15)ロータが過大回転した場合に、遠心力の作用によりコイルバネ(バネ部材等の付勢手段の一種)を弾性圧縮させて規制ロッド111を伸長させ、これによってロータの回転を減速させんとする際は、例えば前記のようにして遠心力調整ウエイト113を付設するのが好ましいが、前記翼部材13の質量が比較的大きい場合は、該遠心力調整ウエイト113を省略することもある。 (15) When the rotor rotates excessively, the restriction spring 111 is extended by elastically compressing a coil spring (a kind of biasing means such as a spring member) by the action of centrifugal force, thereby slowing down the rotation of the rotor. In doing so, it is preferable to attach the centrifugal force adjusting weight 113 as described above, for example. However, when the mass of the wing member 13 is relatively large, the centrifugal force adjusting weight 113 may be omitted.

(16)図32はアーム部材10の他の態様を示すものであり、該心棒2が例えば支柱2aである場合において、前記回転部6を、該心棒2に外挿され且つ上下のベアリング153,153を介して該心棒2の軸線回りに回転し得る回転筒体155として構成した場合を示すものであり、上下に長く形成されている。そして該回転筒体155の上下に位置させて上下一対のアーム7,9の基端部23,23が固定されることによって、該上下一対のアーム7,9からなるアーム部材10が構成されている。このような構成は、心棒2が水平状態に配設される場合にも応用され得る。 (16) FIG. 32 shows another embodiment of the arm member 10. In the case where the mandrel 2 is, for example, a column 2a, the rotating part 6 is extrapolated to the mandrel 2 and the upper and lower bearings 153, 153 shows a case where it is configured as a rotating cylindrical body 155 that can rotate around the axis of the mandrel 2 via 153, and is formed long vertically. Then, the base members 23 and 23 of the pair of upper and lower arms 7 and 9 are fixed so as to be positioned above and below the rotary cylinder 155, thereby forming the arm member 10 composed of the pair of upper and lower arms 7 and 9. Yes. Such a configuration can also be applied when the mandrel 2 is disposed in a horizontal state.

(17)アーム部材10は、図33に示すように、心棒2に所要間隔を置いて設けた回転部6,6相互を連結部材148で連結すると共に、該連結部材の両端で一対のアーム7,9を対向状態に突設することによって構成することもできる。
又、軸線回りに回転し得る前記回転部6は、心棒2に1個だけ設けられることもある。この場合アーム部材10は、該回転部6に、該心棒2に沿って連結部を設け、該連結部の両端に一対のアーム7,9を対向状態に突設することによって構成できる。或いは、該回転部から逆方向の傾斜状態でアーム7,9を突設することによって構成することもある。
(17) As shown in FIG. 33, the arm member 10 connects the rotating parts 6 and 6 provided at a required interval to the mandrel 2 with a connecting member 148 and a pair of arms 7 at both ends of the connecting member. , 9 can be configured to project in an opposing state.
Further, only one rotating part 6 that can rotate around the axis may be provided on the mandrel 2. In this case, the arm member 10 can be configured by providing a connecting portion on the rotating portion 6 along the mandrel 2 and projecting a pair of arms 7 and 9 at opposite ends of the connecting portion. Alternatively, it may be configured by projecting the arms 7 and 9 in an inclined state in the opposite direction from the rotating part.

(18)前記規制ロッド111を、バネ部材等の付勢手段109を介して弾性的に伸長可能とする場合、該バネ部材を採用するときは、これは、前記したコイルバネには特定されず、遠心力の作用によって弾性的に圧縮され或いは弾性的に伸長できるものであれば、流体バネやゴム製バネ、皿バネ等であってもよい。又、かかる付勢手段109を規制ロッド111に組み込む部位は、遠心力の作用による該規制ロッド111の伸長によってロータの過大回転を防止できるものであれば、限定されない。 (18) When the restriction rod 111 can be elastically extended via the biasing means 109 such as a spring member, when the spring member is employed, this is not specified for the coil spring described above, A fluid spring, a rubber spring, a disc spring, or the like may be used as long as it can be elastically compressed or elastically expanded by the action of centrifugal force. Further, the portion for incorporating the urging means 109 into the restriction rod 111 is not limited as long as it can prevent excessive rotation of the rotor by the extension of the restriction rod 111 due to the action of centrifugal force.

(19)前記規制ロッド111は、前記翼体のピッチ角と翼断面を変化させるように作用するものである限り、直線状に構成されないこともある。 (19) The restriction rod 111 may not be configured in a straight line as long as it acts to change the pitch angle and blade section of the blade body.

(20)本発明に係る風車が実施例1で示すようなジャイロミル型風車に応用された場合、前記風向制御装置は、前記した風向バー117を用いて手動操作により行う手段を採用できる他、かかる風向バーを用いることなく自動制御する手段を採用してもよい。例えば、風向センサの検知信号を受けて作動するギヤードモータ等の駆動制御手段を用いて構成することができる。 (20) When the windmill according to the present invention is applied to a gyromill type windmill as shown in the first embodiment, the wind direction control device can employ means that is manually operated using the wind direction bar 117 described above, You may employ | adopt the means to control automatically, without using this wind direction bar.
