支持部6は、円筒翼4、整流板5及び遮蔽板7の各組毎に、第1の回転軸O1を中心とする円周C1上に円筒翼4を配置するように、軸方向に対する円筒翼4の両端部40a、40bを軸支するとともに、円筒翼4が第1の回転軸O1を中心として時計回りR1に公転するときの進行方向とは反対側に整流板5及び遮蔽板7を配置するように、整流板5及び遮蔽板7を支持する。 The supporting portion 6 is arranged in a cylindrical shape with respect to the axial direction so that the cylindrical blades 4 are arranged on the circumference C1 around the first rotation axis O1 for each set of the cylindrical blades 4, the current plate 5 and the shield plate 7. Both end portions 40a and 40b of the blade 4 are pivotally supported, and the straightening plate 5 and the shield plate 7 are arranged on the side opposite to the traveling direction when the cylindrical blade 4 revolves clockwise R1 about the first rotation axis O1. The straightening plate 5 and the shielding plate 7 are supported so as to be arranged.

支持部6が、円周C1上に円筒翼4を支持する態様としては、支持部6が、図5に示すように、円筒翼4の中心である第2の回転軸O2と円周C1とが重なった状態で円筒翼4を支持する場合だけでなく、第2の回転軸O2と円周C1との間には、垂直軸型マグナス式風力発電機1の機能が損なわれない程度のずれが許容されるものであり、支持部6が、例えば、円筒翼4の円形状の断面と円周C1とが重なった状態で円筒翼4を支持する場合も含む。なお、支持部6の具体的構成は後述する。 As a mode in which the support portion 6 supports the cylindrical blade 4 on the circumference C1, the support portion 6 is arranged between the second rotation axis O2, which is the center of the cylindrical blade 4, and the circumference C1, as shown in FIG. In addition to the case where the cylindrical blades 4 are supported in a state in which the two are overlapped, there is a deviation between the second rotation axis O2 and the circumference C1 that does not impair the function of the vertical axis type Magnus type wind power generator 1. is allowed, and includes the case where the support portion 6 supports the cylindrical blade 4 in a state where the circular cross section of the cylindrical blade 4 overlaps the circumference C1, for example. A specific configuration of the support portion 6 will be described later.

垂直軸型マグナス式風力発電機1は、円筒翼モータ42により第2の回転軸O2を中心として円筒翼4を時計回りR2に回転(自転)させた状態において、所定の方向から風(空気流)を受けると、円筒翼4にマグナス力が発生する。そして、円筒翼4に発生したマグナス力は、第1の回転軸O1を中心として円筒翼4を時計回りR1に公転させる方向に作用する。 The vertical axis type Magnus wind power generator 1 generates wind (airflow ), a Magnus force is generated in the cylindrical blade 4 . The Magnus force generated in the cylindrical blades 4 acts in a direction to cause the cylindrical blades 4 to revolve clockwise R1 about the first rotation axis O1.

このとき、整流板5は、風向に対して円筒翼4が存在する位置に応じて、マグナス力の大きさを制御する。具体的には、円筒翼4が、風上側に存在する場合には、整流板5は、風向と円筒翼4の自転方向とが逆方向になる領域(流れ減速側)に存在する。そのため、整流板5は、流れ減速側における風の流れを阻害することになるが、円筒翼4に発生するマグナス力を大きく低下させることにはならないため、マグナス力は、円筒翼4を公転させる回転力として作用する。 At this time, the current plate 5 controls the magnitude of the Magnus force according to the position of the cylindrical blade 4 with respect to the wind direction. Specifically, when the cylindrical blades 4 are present on the windward side, the straightening vanes 5 are present in a region (flow deceleration side) where the wind direction and the rotation direction of the cylindrical blades 4 are opposite to each other. Therefore, the current plate 5 obstructs the flow of the wind on the flow deceleration side, but does not greatly reduce the Magnus force generated in the cylindrical blade 4, so the Magnus force causes the cylindrical blade 4 to revolve. Acts as a rotational force.

一方、円筒翼4が、風下側に存在する場合には、整流板5は、風向と円筒翼4の自転方向とが一致する領域(流れ加速側)に存在する。そのため、整流板5は、流れ加速側における風の流れを阻害することにより、円筒翼4に発生するマグナス力を低下させるため、マグナス力が、円筒翼4を公転させる回転力を打ち消すように作用することを抑制する。 On the other hand, when the cylindrical blades 4 are present on the leeward side, the straightening vanes 5 are present in the region (flow acceleration side) where the wind direction and the rotation direction of the cylindrical blades 4 coincide. Therefore, the straightening plate 5 reduces the Magnus force generated in the cylindrical blades 4 by obstructing the flow of the wind on the flow acceleration side. restrain from doing.

以上のように、円筒翼4が、整流板5により円筒翼4に発生するマグナス力が制御された状態で時計回りR1に公転することにより、回転部3を時計回りに回転させて、回転部3に連結された発電機21で発電する。 As described above, the cylindrical blades 4 revolve clockwise R1 in a state where the Magnus force generated in the cylindrical blades 4 is controlled by the current plate 5, thereby rotating the rotating portion 3 clockwise. The generator 21 connected to 3 generates electricity.
