11231013 · 2022-01-25 ·

A rotational movement assisting device includes: a pipe-type rotary shaft having a through-hole formed therein; a rotational blade coupled so as to rotate the rotary shaft by using a rotation coupling unit provided on an uppermost end of the rotary shaft; a base unit erectly provided by using a rotation installation unit such that the rotary shaft is rotatable; a dual partition wall-type reservoir unit provided at the rotary shaft between the rotational blade and the base unit so as to be coupled to be rotatable; a multistage expandable horizontal rotation unit communicating with the reservoir unit such that circulating water may be introduced thereinto, and having an inner space part formed therein; a power generator provided on an upper surface of the base unit.

Windmill electrical power system and Torque Enhanced Transmission
20220010781 · 2022-01-13 · ·

A system for generating electrical power in a windmill using a Torque enhanced Transmission. The transmission includes, multiple speed increasers, multiple speed decreasers, and a plurality of flywheels, and clutch assemblies. to form one transmission, The speed increasers speed the flywheel assemblies to a much higher speed than the operating speed of the generator so kinetic energy is maximized before a gear reduction slows down the output shaft to the induction generators operating speed with enhanced torque. The Torque is continually variable while output speeds are designed to be relatively constant. The system allows for multiple input and output shafts and allows for multiple generators to be used in place of a larger single generator.

Wind turbine suitable for mounting without a wind turbine tower
11168661 · 2021-11-09 ·

This invention discloses an improved wind turbine suitable for mounting without a wind turbine tower. The wind turbine is based on a rotor with appropriately selected blades. A nozzle and diffuser in the wind flow increase the amount of wind energy available to the rotor. One or more wind turbines can be grouped together in a common housing. The lack of a wind turbine tower and the general compact design allows the wind turbine to be used in close proximity to or on buildings.

Variable Moment Flywheel
20220106938 · 2022-04-07 ·

A method for storage of excess energy which would otherwise be lost, the regulation of angular velocity, and prevention of excessive velocities is disclosed. The device consists of a bowl shaped container, divided into sections by radially oriented vertical walls, which holds a fluid (any appropriate liquid or set of small solid particles), and spins on its vertically oriented axis at various angular velocities. The floor of the device is formed in successive shapes of bowls and shelves, which allows for a kind of “gearing”. The invention allows more and more energy to be input into the device while the angular velocity is regulated within a particular range. A typical embodiment of the invention would include its attachment by a shaft at the axis to a vertical axis wind turbine.

This invention discloses an improved wind turbine suitable for mounting without a wind turbine tower. The wind turbine is based on a rotor with appropriately selected blades. A nozzle and diffuser in the wind flow increase the amount of wind energy available to the rotor. The rotor is interruptibly connected with one or more of a plurality of generators which allows generation at a wide range of wind speeds. The rotor is also interruptibly connected with a co-axial flywheel which allows for storage or use of rotational energy as needed by the availability of wind energy. One or more wind turbines can be grouped together in a common housing. Electricity can also be generated by means of stored energy. The lack of a wind turbine tower and the general compact design allows the wind turbine to be used in close proximity to or on buildings.
