Windmills with variable wings {WINDMILL FOR A WIND POWER AEROGENERATOR}

The present invention relates to a wind turbine for a wind power generator having a variable wing capable of efficiently converting the force of the wind into mechanical energy, and more particularly, the wing of the rotating direction by the wing is folded or unfolded according to the direction of the wind Wing is located in the direction opposite to the direction of the rotation is wider and rotated to the wind relates to a windmill for a wind turbine having a variable wing that can improve the power generation efficiency by narrowing the area in contact with the wind.

In general, currently used power generation methods are widely used, such as thermal power generation using a large fossil fuel, nuclear power generation using uranium, and hydroelectric power generation requiring a large amount of fresh water. Since thermal power generation requires power generation by burning fuels such as coal or petroleum, a lot of combustion gas is generated to increase air pollution, and nuclear power generation does not emit combustion gases polluting the air, but a large amount of radioactive waste that is fatal to the human body is generated. It is discharged, hydroelectric power does not emit a combustion gas or radiation waste, etc. and does not require a separate fuel, while destroying the environment there is a problem that is not environmentally friendly. Recently, research on solar power generation and wind power generation, which are environmentally friendly and can use fuel permanently, has been conducted.

At this time, the windmill theoretically converts about 60% of the kinetic energy of the wind into mechanical energy, which is then converted into electrical energy. Is converted to a lot of energy. Therefore, the conversion efficiency of converting wind energy into electrical energy is substantially different depending on the shape of the windmill, but it is only about 20 to 40%.

However, in the conventional wind power generation as described above, the wind is maintained at a constant speed or higher and the density of the air is high so that the kinetic energy of the wind is transmitted to the wings, and thus the windmill is rotated, thereby converting the kinetic energy of the wind into electrical energy.

It must be interpreted to mean meanings and concepts.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, a windmill for a wind turbine having a variable wing according to embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.

First, with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6 will be described in detail a windmill for a wind turbine having a variable wing according to an embodiment of the present invention.

1 is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which a windmill for a wind turbine having a variable wing according to an embodiment of the present invention is installed, Figure 2 is a configuration of a windmill for a wind turbine having a variable wing according to an embodiment of the present invention Figure 3 is a perspective view, Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view showing the configuration of the blade and the drive member installed in the windmill according to an embodiment of the present invention.

1 to 3, the wind turbine includes a housing 10 installed on the ground, a generator 11 installed inside the housing 10, and one end thereof exposed to the side of the housing 10. It consists of the rotor rotary shaft 13 with which the generator 11 was equipped, and the windmill 100 couple | bonded with this rotor rotary shaft 13.

The windmill 100 is coupled to the rotor rotation shaft 13 and the case 110 is rotated together with the rotor rotation shaft 13, and the circumferential direction and the longitudinal direction of the case 110 so that the case 110 is rotated by wind The wing 120 and the drive member 130 for rotating the wings 120 so that the wings 120 are easily deployed and folded according to the wind direction.

The wing 120 is installed at regular intervals along the circumferential direction and the longitudinal direction of the case 110 so that the case 110 is rotated by the wind, and is expanded and folded by the force of the wind. To this end, the wing 120 is rotatably installed on the drive member 130 installed in the case 110, one or two are rotatably installed on the drive member 130.

The drive member 130 includes a bracket 131 installed on the case 110, a cylinder 133 installed on the bracket 131, a piston 135 installed inside the cylinder 133, and The tension spring 137 embedded in the cylinder 133 and one side is connected to the wing and the other side includes a link 139 connected to the piston 135.

One side of the bracket 131 is fixed to the case 110, and the wing 120 is rotatably attached to the center portion through a hinge (H).

Straight reciprocating movement. Specifically, when the front surface 121 of the wing 120 faces the windy direction, the wing 120 is rotated and unfolded while being rotated in the bracket 131 by the wind power, thereby being connected to the wing 120. As the link 139 is moved, the piston 135 is linearly moved in the working space 133a. That is, the area of the wing 120 that meets the wind is increased so that more wind power is transmitted to the windmill 100, the rotational force of the windmill 100 is increased. At this time, the tension spring 137 is compressed by the piston 135, and elastically supports the piston 135 in the direction of the blade (120).

And when the windmill 100 is rotated and the back 123 of the wing 120 is opened to face the wind blowing direction, the wing 120 in the bracket 131 by the elasticity of the wind and tension spring 137 It is quickly rotated and folded. Because of this, since the wind power transmitted to the blade 120 is lowered, the rotational force of the windmill 100 is increased.

In summary, among the wings 120 installed along the circumferential direction of the windmill 100, the wings 120 in which the front surface 121 of the wings 120 is positioned in the windy direction are expanded by the wind and are wider. Wind is transmitted to the site, at this time, the rear wing 123 of the wing 120 is located in the windy direction is the wing 120 is quickly folded by the wind and the tension spring 137 so that the wind contact The narrower the wind resistance, the less wind resistance.
