INSTRUCTIONS: FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to wind turbines, and more particularly to vertical axis wind turbines. 5 [Prior Art] Background of the Invention As humans, especially developing countries, have an increasing demand for energy and a limited understanding of traditional fossil fuel supplies, people have access to renewable energy sources such as sunlight, wind, and rain (water). Interests in the use of new methods and improvements in the use of tidal and geothermal energy are becoming more and more intense. For decades, hydro-electricity has become the mainstream of renewable energy. However, with the increasing emphasis on the environmental impact of blocked damming waterways and the recognition that clean drinking water is an important resource, the hydro-generation hydration is gradually decreasing. People's attention has gradually shifted to using wind power as a resource for large-scale power generation in the future. Wind turbines can be classified as horizontal or vertical axis wind turbines. A typical horizontal shaft wind turbine has a large fan-shaped blade </ RTI> mounted on a tower tower that rotates about a horizontal axis, similar to a windmill. To date, the largest horizontal axis wind turbine is about 40 stories high and the blades are about 126 meters straight. In order to produce enough electricity: 2〇 to the utility grid, the horizontal axis wind turbine is set up in a large wind farm. The wind farm has hundreds of wind turbines distributed in a wide area. Although we use a lot of renewable energy in the month, these wind farms have a large area and are unsightly. A conventional vertical axis wind turbine has a vertically extending rotating center shaft.垂 3 200946773

Since the wind turbine according to the present invention can be made on such a large scale, it can utilize a large area of wind at a higher altitude where the wind speed is higher. The possible power of the wind is $15, given by 1/2 ΡΑγ3, where Ρ is the density of the air, Α is the 15 wind area of the wind turbine, and v is the wind speed. Based on this, the amount of power generated by the wind turbine will increase proportionally to the area swept by the rotor and increase in cubes of wind speed. The area that the wind turbine rotor sweeps is large because it can be up to 350 meters wide. Since it can reach a height of $(9) meters or higher, this means that the wind turbine will be exposed to winds of higher wind speed. Therefore, the wind turbine according to the present invention can extract higher energy from the wind. 1 Construction of a wind turbine of the above-described scale can utilize the well-known techniques of building construction and large-scale engineering. In most countries of the world, many high-rise buildings of up to 500 meters or more have been built. The construction techniques of these structures can easily become: Expertise in the field of technical personnel. These known construction techniques apply to the individual structural elements and features of the wind turbines described herein. ^ 200946773 The apparatus of the preferred embodiment is "multi-layer" type, with multiple independent. The wheel is attached to a common vertical cylindrical support structure, and the two turbines are vertically stacked to have respective rotors, which are connected to its own power generation pen 1 in summer, or directly driven or driven or other Transmission attack. Vertical wind ❹ 10; without a car, the turbine may extend to a height of a few hundred meters, so it will be different in different wind directions and wind speeds. Each full wheel can be freely rotated independently of the power generators set at different heights depending on the different conditions. This is not essential to the invention, the wind turbine may have only one rotor. The wind turbine according to the invention is shaftless. In this document, it is meant that each rotor of a wind turbine is a freely rotatable structure. There is again a shaft that is coaxial with the rotor to transmit torque to the power plant, which is different from the rotary electric machine and the known vertical and horizontal axis wind turbines. First Preferred Embodiment An i-5-figure depicts a shaftless vertical 0 multi-layer wind turbine 1 according to a first embodiment of the present invention. Although scale is not critical to the invention, the turbine has a diameter of 350 meters and a height of up to 500 meters. The wind turbine has three basic functional parts: a vertical support structure, at least one rotor driven by the wind and attached to the support structure, and a power generating device driven by the rotor. In a preferred embodiment, there are a plurality of independently rotating rotors that are vertically stacked 20 and one above the other. Each rotor is coupled to a corresponding transmission and power generating device disposed in the vertical support structure. The vertical support structure consists of a straight-lined cylindrical tower that forms the core of the rotor. The diameter of the tower is generally 4% of the total wind turbine. In a preferred embodiment, the diameter of the core tower is 9 200946773 5 10 25% of the straight root of the wind turbine. Since the diameter of the wind turbine is 300 meters, the diameter of the core tower is 75 meters. μ extends to the entire height of the wind turbine, and the top &lt; cover is either flat or inclined (4) (not shown). The material is constructed from two concentric circular walls 5, 6 'the space between the two walls is 7. A plurality of ribbed ribs 8 are arranged in the space field in a circumferential direction, extending vertically and connected to the walls 5 and 6 of the _ section and the exterior. The vertical ribbed backbone 8 divides the space between the walls into a plurality of units. The preferred implementation (4), the distance between the inner and outer tower walls 5, 6 is about several meters. In the space 7 between the walls, there is enough space to set up the elevator. 9, stairs _ and in the horizontal setting machine (four) corresponding to each rotor to device power generation equipment. The area within the interior wall 6 of the anger tower is generally hollow, creating a large Μ center space u within the structure. The core tower is constructed of reinforced concrete&apos; and can be constructed using known construction techniques. The cylindrical double wall structure of the core tower allows the strength of the core tower to withstand the large lateral forces generated by the wind.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that 2, 4, 5, 6, or more blades may be used, but power and efficiency may vary to varying degrees. 5 Referring to Fig. 5, the outer wall of the anger tower is stepped in the height of each layer of the rotors 19, 20, 21, and 22, forming a ledge dedgeuo around the outer circumference of the core tower. Each rotor is rotatably supported on each of the wall frames 30 on the outer circumference of the core tower. A wing wall 35 is formed on the outer edge of each ledge 3 。. A hook frame portion 233 extending inwardly of the rotor is located above the ledge 30. A set of wheels or rollers 10 31 are disposed along the circumference of the inner edge of the frame inwardly extending portion 233, and the circular track 351 on the inner side surface of the wing wall 35 is horizontally operated. The second set of wheels or rollers 32 are disposed on the underside of the frame associated portion 233 along the circumference of the inner edge thereof and run vertically on the second circular track 352 of the upper side surface of the wing wall 35. The upper wheel or roller combination 31, 32 relies on the outer circumference of the concrete core tower to provide vertical and lateral horizontal support for the rotor 15. A plurality of thrust rollers 33 are also provided at the inner circumference of the bottom of the rotary disk 23. The thrust roller 33 is rotated/executed along the outer wall 5 of the core tower, and the outer periphery of the core tower provides lateral support for the lower portion of the rotor. Thus, the top of the frame of each rotor is suspended vertically from the ledge 30, and the rotor 20 provides vertical and lateral horizontal support by the cooperation of the upper wheels and the rollers 31, 32 and the thrust rollers 33. The interaction of the wind with the distal airfoil blades of the rotor arm causes the rotor to rotate around the core tower. The movement of the rotor is mechanically rotated by the power generating unit 40 of the core tower through a transmission device disposed adjacent to the thrust roller 33. - The pair of gears 42, 43 are rotatably disposed within the opening of the outer wall of the core tower. The smaller gear 42 is engaged with the ring gear 44 disposed on the inner circumference of the annular member 232 at the lower portion of the rotating disc 23 below the thrust roller 33 of 11 200946773. As the motion of the revolution +, the ring gear rotates the smaller gear 42. The smaller gear 42S1 is fixed to the large wire 43, and the larger C-coupled power generating device gear 41 rotates the power generating device 40. 5 10 15 20 Alternative power plant arrangements It is not necessary for the power plant 40 to be mechanically rotated by the present invention. Any type of suitable transmission system and/or power generation system known in the art can be used to convert the energy of the rotor rotation into electricity. For example, it can be used, direct drive (gearless) power generation equipment that requires any mechanical transmission. The direct drive type f device has a set of stators and a set of rotors. One of them is provided with an electromagnetic winding group. If a permanent magnet is used, a permanent magnet and a bracket 3 are provided with a conductive winding address. Power is generated when the relative rotor of the rotor and stator passes or passes through the stator. Fig. 6 shows the driving power generation I in which the magnetic field pole 61 of the permanent magnet is fixed to the outer wall 5 by the upper edge of the inwardly extending portion 233 of the == turntable 23 and the turns. An alternative rotor support arrangement 30 provides a second arrangement in which the rotor is mounted to the core tower ledge 3G.

Between the upper and lower sets of truss arm pairs 461, 462, 261, 262, the diagonal line-arm 48 extends from the inner end of the upper set of radial ramp arms 46 462 to the lower set of radial streets 10 The distal ends of the arms 261, 262. The guide arms 461, 261 of each pair of truss arms can also be pulled into the rotating disk 23 of the rotor in a horizontal plane by a stay 481 to increase stability. Figures 15 and 16 illustrate another arrangement for mounting the rotor to the core tower ledge. This arrangement can be employed in the wind turbine of the second preferred embodiment. The ledge does not have 15 wing walls 35. The upper lateral stabilizer wheel 31 is placed on the rail 351, and the rail 351 is disposed on the surface of the outer circumference of the core tower. Figures 17 and 18 are plan views of this arrangement. Figures 19 and 20 show another design of the rotor arm, 20 where the arm tapers from the rotating disk 23 toward the rotor blade 28 (: tapered). The tapering provides a higher height to the rotor arm. , J strength, to resist deflection and bending in the transverse direction during rotor rotation. Furthermore, the inventors contemplate that in this and other embodiments, the charm can be placed in an aerodynamically shaped outer casing in order to reduce the resistance of the rotor arm through the air as it moves. 13 200946773 Third Preferred Embodiment with Blade Combination Arrangement A disadvantage of the lift type vertical axis wind turbine is that there is resistance (negative power) opposite to the direction of rotation when the blades 28 of the rotor are suspected of turning in the wind. When the rotor is started, it needs a high enough wind speed to blow through the surface of the blade to generate the aerodynamic force required for the rotor. In order to overcome the above difficulties, in another embodiment of the present invention, a blade having a curvature is placed adjacent to the position of the rotary disk 23 to form a combined wind turbine. Figures 9-14 show such a combined wind turbine in a preferred embodiment. The curved blades are disposed between the upper and lower truss pairs (461, 462), (261, 261). The blade 45 can be operated in the wind as a resistance type rotor ® 10 blade to help start the rotation of the rotor. As the rotor speed increases, the aerodynamic forces generated on the airfoil blades 28 also increase and contribute to the rotational force of the rotor. At normal rotor speeds, the primary rotational force is derived from the airfoil blades 28. Although the embodiment shown in Figures 9-14 has three curved vanes 45 between the pair of radial strut arms of the upper and lower jaws, this is not essential to the present invention. As long as the desired wind speed is sufficient to start rotating the rotor, the number of the curved blades 圆周 and the size of the 设置 can be arbitrarily selected. Figures 19 and 20 show another alternative blade combination arrangement, 20 blades, a plurality of blades 45 disposed on the rotating disk 23 of the rotor, independent of the rotor arms. Compared to the embodiment depicted in Figures 9-14, the number of vanes 45 is greater and thus can be finer. At higher speeds, the resistance caused by the blades 45 is less when the rotor is operated primarily by the lift acting on the outer blades 28. Pumped Storage System 14 200946773 Figure 1 also shows an important but not essential feature of a wind turbine according to the present invention. Due to the height and scale of the wind turbine, it is feasible to store a large amount of water at a very high height in the core tower. A large amount of water can be stored in the upper gap 7 between the inner and outer walls of the core tower without requiring a very large additional reinforcement of the upper portion of the tower. Similarly, storing a large amount of water in the space 11 at the center of the lower portion of the tower does not require a very large additional reinforcement of the tower. This water can be moved between the upper and lower reservoirs by means of ducts provided in the space between the walls or on the inner surface of the inner wall. When the wind condition causes the generated electricity to be more than 10 15 good 20 to be supplied to the grid or local power consumption, the electric pump pumps the water from the lower reservoir to the upper reservoir. When the conditions are opposite or at the peak of the load, or when the wind is low, the water is discharged from the loading reservoir to the lower part, the water storage tank, through the hydroelectric generating unit for (4) wind power generation. Although pumped storage systems are known in the prior art, the impact of the wind turbine tower and the single tower wind, the capacity limitation of the wind turbine tower is combined with the pumped storage system into the wind power plant: Month W passed. The tower according to the present invention overcomes these problems by placing a very strong tall and large tower and the power generation capacity of the layer rotor by means of the device. In the above description, the oblique, m, and the whole or part of the known counterpart are referred to, and these pairs * 1卞 are included in the present day. The present invention has been described as if it has been described herein, although it has been described that the present invention may be practiced without departing from the scope of the invention. However, it should be understood that variations, improvements, or claims may be made.
