Abstract

Energy conversion means for wind turbines in which turbine blades rotationally drive a main axle, the energy conversion means comprising: one or more rotary to linear motion conversion mechanisms for being driven by the rotary motion of the main axle of the wind turbine, the linear motion obtained from the one or more rotary to linear conversion means being mechanically coupled to one or more linear generators to cause relative reciprocal motion between translator(s) and stator(s) of the one or more linear generators.
