  • the first plate 14 rotates with the central shaft 4 of the wind turbine 2. This rotation means that a centrifugal force is experienced by the weighted pivot pin 42.
  • the weighted pivot pin 42 then moves radially outwards from the central shaft 4 of the wind turbine 2.
  • each pushing rod 44 is also moved by the same distance in the direction of the first plate 14.
  • the movement of pushing rods 44 tilts the blades 8 to which the rods 44 are attached.
  • the movement serves to put the blades 8 into a pitch angle alignment which is most suitable for the wind speed being experienced by the wind turbine 2.
  • the coil spring 52 acts to push the second plate 16 away from the first plate 14 to the resting position.
  • the device 10 of the present invention therefore, allows wind turbines 2 to work effectively at higher wind speeds, when most other wind turbines would have to be stopped.
  • the device of the present invention 10 is operable to react instantaneously to any changes in wind speed, and the blade pitch angles are constantly altered by the device.
  • the primary mechanism of the device of the present invention is simple, with few moving parts. Therefore, the present invention provides a solution having a reduced complexity and mass over prior art devices. Furthermore, the mechanism is mounted on the turbine inboard of the blades. Therefore, the solution of the present invention provides no overhung mass and can be contained inside the body of the turbine to protect it from weather.
  • the mechanism may with the exception of the spring be constructed from lightweight alloys as all loads are transferred through robust structural parts without the need for precision components.
