FIG. 9 is a configuration diagram of the wind turbine generator disclosed in Patent Document 17, wherein (a) is a perspective view and (b) is a side view for explaining a vibration mode.

The wind power generator 90 includes a belt-like vibrating body 91, piezoelectric elements 92 provided on both upper and lower ends of the vibrating body 91, and a holding member 93 that holds the vibrating body. When the wind blows substantially parallel to the plane portion of the vibrating body 91, the wind causes vibrations such that the direction of the unevenness is switched in an arc shape as shown in (b).

As the piezoelectric element 92, a known bimorph element, unimorph element, or the like can be used.

When natural wind is used, the frequency may change depending on the wind speed, and appropriate resonance may not occur.
Therefore, in order to generate power using these vibrational energy, it was a problem to be solved how to input a wind flow having energy that can stably and sufficiently output.

When a normal wind or water flow is input into the main body of the fluid body of the present invention, a swirling flow is generated inside the main body and the speed is increased and output. In addition, by providing the nozzle, the direction of the fluid can be output in a constant manner.
Focusing on such features of the present invention, the prime mover can efficiently generate power by converting fluid into kinetic energy of a vibration system and further using, for example, a power generation device using a piezoelectric element or electromagnetic induction. Can do.

In the airflow conversion device 2, the airflow that has been introduced one after another and converted into a rotating airflow to increase the momentum promotes the airflow associated with the combustion taken into the upper airflow conversion device 2, so that the flame of the combustion device is discharged. Since it is always drawn to the smoke means side, there is no risk of flames even if the inlet 6 is opened, and the combustibles can be safely input from the inlet 6 into the combustion device 4 even during combustion. Is realized.

As shown in FIG. 6, the airflow conversion device is configured in multiple stages, and the airflow with increased momentum generated by the airflow conversion device 2 configured below is converted into a combustion device in the airflow conversion device 2 configured above. 4 acts as an induced airflow of the airflow accompanying combustion taken in from 4 and a new airflow introduced from the opening 3.
