Example implementations relate to a fan module. The fan module may include an outer impeller having a first plurality of radial blades arranged between an inner circumference of the outer impeller and an outer circumference of the outer impeller. The outer impeller may be rotatable about a first axis of rotation. The fan module may include an inner impeller having a second plurality of radial blades, the inner impeller disposed within the inner circumference of the outer impeller and rotatable about a second axis of rotation.

A device and a method for converting wave motion energy into electric power are described. The device includes at least one support structure and a support frame to connect the floating element to the support structure. A linear element of motive power mounted on the support frame is movable with respect to the floating element and transfers motion to a motion conversion and transmission unit that converts linear motion into rotary motion, which drives kinetic energy accumulation elements and one or more electric power generators. The motion conversion and transmission unit, the kinetic energy accumulation elements and the electric power generators are all incorporated in the floating element.

A blade pitch arrangement of a wind turbine is provided having a number of blade shafts extending radially outward from a hub and a rotor blade mounted around each blade shaft, which blade pitch arrangement includes a toothed ring arranged at the root end of each rotor blade; and a pitch drive unit for each rotor blade, having a driver body and a pinion realized to engage with the toothed ring of a rotor blade; wherein a pitch drive unit is arranged relative to its corresponding rotor blade such that the pinion is positioned closest to the hub, and the driver body extends in a direction radially outward from the hub. A wind turbine is also described.

A segmented gear plate configured to be removably connected to a pitch bearing of a wind turbine has been described. The pitch bearing is present between a rotor hub and a plurality of blades. The pitch bearing axially pivots the plurality of blades between different pitch angles. The pitch bearing includes an inner bearing ring and an outer bearing ring rotatably interconnected to each other. The segmented gear plate is removably connected to at least one of the inner bearing ring or the outer bearing ring by at least one connecting element. The segmented gear plate having a plurality of gear teeth, the plurality of gear teeth configured to allow the rotation of a drive shaft of a motor to achieve different pitch angles.

A magnetic drive, seal-less combination axial air and water pump includes a housing having an inlet and an outlet at least one impeller mounted for rotation within the housing, and a magnetic drive surrounding the first rotor and the second rotor, the magnetic drive being configured to transmit torque to the first rotor and a second rotor at a location radially spaced from a central axis of the first rotor and the second rotor.

A spar cap for a rotor blade of a wind turbine may generally include an assembly of pre-cured laminate plates stacked on one top of the other, with the assembly including an outermost pre-cured plate, an innermost pre-cured plate positioned opposite the outermost pre-cured plate and a plurality of intermediate pre-cured plates stacked directly between the outermost and innermost pre-cured plates. The outermost pre-cured plate may be configured to be positioned adjacent to an inner surface of a body shell of the rotor blade. In addition, the outermost pre-cured plate may define a plate thickness that differs from a plate thickness defined by the innermost pre-cured plate by at least 50%.
