专利汇可以提供Wind power machine专利检索,专利查询,专利分析的服务。并且A wind power machine in which a plurality of sails connected to an endless chain move about an endless horizontal track to drive an electric generator. Each sail is mounted on an individual truck supported on the track. The endless track is arranged as two spaced apart parallel runs connected by semi-circular end sections. Each sail is rotatable about a vertical pivot on its truck and is controllable so that the sails can be positioned to drive the machine while moving along one run of the track and to be positioned to offer the least wind resistance while moving in the reverse direction along the other run of the track. Depending upon the direction of the wind the sails in most instances can be adjusted to provide drive along both runs of the track. The sails are adjusted by an electric motor drive controlled by a wind vane. In a modified control system an anemometer is provided to over ride the wind vane control, to align the sails with the wind to present the least resistance to the wind when the wind power machine is subjected to winds of damaging force.,下面是Wind power machine专利的具体信息内容。

1. A wind power machine comprising a generally horizontal elongate base mounted in fixed position on the ground, an endless path formed in said base including a pair of spaced parallel rails and including a pair of relatively long spaced apart parallel runs connected at their opposite ends by relatively short semi-circular runs, a plurality of trucks mounted for movement along said endless path on said rails at spaced apart intervals, a flexible endless chain extending along said path and connecting said trucks, rotatable drive means journalled on said base adjacent each of said semi-circular runs portions, said drive means engaged by said endless chain for rotating said drive means upon movement of said trucks along said path, a vertical shaft supported solely at its lower end on each of said trucks, a sail mounted on each of said vertical shafts for rotation about a vertical axis, means on said truck for rotating said sails to a desired position relative to the wind direction, and means adjacent one end of each of said parallel runs controlled by the direction of the wind for controlling the means for rotating said sails.
2. A device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the means on said trucks for rotating said sails includes an electric servo-motor which rotationally adjusts the position of each of said sails on each of said trucks, said last named means includes a pair of wind vane servo-actuators separately connected to the trucks in each of said runs to separately control the sails thereon.
3. A device as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of said trucks includes a generally horizontal frame supported on a plurality of flanged railroad wheels adapted for engagement with the rails in said endless path, said shaft extending perpendicularly of each of said trucks being rigidly secured thereto with the lower end of said shaft connected to the means connecting said trucks.
4. A device as claimed in claim 3 wherein means journalled on said shaft supports said sail and includes a sleeve rigidly connected to said sail, a gear rigidly connected to the lower end of said sleeve, and the means on said truck for rotating said sails includes an electric servo-motor associated with said gear to rotate said gear upon energization of said motor.
5. A device as claimed in claim 1 wherein the means for rotating said sails on said trucks includes a servo-motor on each of said trucks, and said last named means includes a pair of wind vanes each including a servo-actuator with said wind vanes separately controlling the sails traveling along the relatively long straight runs of said endless path, and means controlled by the velocity of the wind for moving said sails into a position of least resistance to the wind to prevent wind damage thereto.
6. A device as claimed in claim 1 wherein the sails moving along one of the relatively long runs are separately rotatably adjustable from the sails moving along the other of said relatively long runs.
7. A dEvice as claimed in claim 1 wherein an electric generator unit is connected to said drive means for operation thereby.
8. A device as claimed in claim 5 wherein the means controlled by the velocity of the wind comprises an anemometer.
