The present invention generally relates to a vertical axle helix monoblock wind turbine. More specifically, the present invention relates to a wind turbine that is also called flower power that is mounted on a tri pod or any vertical axle stand.
The present invention has a main element of the invention that is the wind turbine itself. The rotor, also called flower power, is a required element and is mounted on a tri pod or any vertical axle standing. The vertical axle, tripod, concrete base pole, represents the base of the wind turbine element. The present invention is a gear planet assembly that amplifies the movement of rotor to current generator. The current generator provides current. A photovoltaic pane provides current in absence of the wind. The vertical axle helix monoblock or VAHM wind turbine generates current by transforming the wind energy, through the rotor to batteries.
The present invention will be described by way of exemplary embodiments, but not limitations, illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which like references denote similar elements, and in which:
Various aspects of the illustrative embodiments will be described using terms commonly employed by those skilled in the art to convey the substance of their work to others skilled in the art. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced with only some of the described aspects. For purposes of explanation, specific numbers, materials and configurations are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the illustrative embodiments. However, it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced without the specific details. In other instances, well-known features are omitted or simplified in order not to obscure the illustrative embodiments.
Various operations will be described as multiple discrete operations, in turn, in a manner that is most helpful in understanding the present invention, however, the order of description should not be construed as to imply that these operations are necessarily order dependent. In particular, these operations need not be performed in the order of presentation.
The phrase “in one embodiment” is used repeatedly. The phrase generally does not refer to the same embodiment, however, it may. The terms “comprising”, “having” and “including” are synonymous, unless the context dictates otherwise.
Referring now to
The rotor movement begins at a 2-3 m/s wind speed and provides a self braking momentum at over 20 m/s wind speed. The VAHM 10 generates current by transforming the wind energy through a rotor 12 to batteries. The 3 helix mono block blade rotor 12 is the main element and is mounted to a tripod support frame 22 which is mounted to a concrete base 24. The gear planet assembly 16 amplifies the movement of the rotor to generator 18 which provides current. The photovoltaic panel 20 will provide current in the absence of wind.
