Filed:

Mar 3, 2010

Appl. No.:

13/203745

Inventors:

George J. Syrovy - Centerville MA, US

Assignee:

EverLift Wind Technology, Inc. - Lewes DE

International Classification:

F03D 9/02

US Classification:

290 44, 290 55

Abstract:

Looped AirFoil Wind Turbine (LAWT) () is a novel wind turbine with a basic system of a triangular structure () utilizing both lift and drag aerodynamic forces produced by wind energy. The entire triangular structure () could either yaw to always face the wind direction (W) or stay in a fixed position. The LAWT system () uses airfoil blades () shaped like an airplane wing, traveling linearly on travel wheels () riding on travel tracks (). While traveling up, the wings are powered by a positive lift force and drag force while using negative lift force and drag force when traveling downward. All wings () are connected by a segmented chain () which transfers the kinetic power of wheeled wing carriages () directly to multiple generators (), requiring no gears.

International Classification:

F03D 5/06

US Classification:

416 83

Abstract:

In a preferred embodiment, pairs of oscillating wind paddles are mounted in the lee of a wind turbine of the lift type. An oscillating wind paddle assembly has an upper pair of paddles moving between a first position at substantially right angles to the direction of wind and a second position substantially parallel to the direction of the wind and mounted on arms extending to either side of a shaft to which they are connected through a one-way clutch, and a lower pair of paddles moving between a position at substantially right angles to the direction of the wind and a second position substantially parallel to the direction of the wind and mounted on arms extending to either side of the same shaft to which they are connected through a one-way clutch, one of the paddles being a drive paddle and the other a recovery paddle, the two pairs of paddles being out of phase with respect to one another.

Abstract:

A vertical take-off and landing vehicle that employs a thrust assembly, a fuselage, and an intermediate rotation decoupling interface assembly for rotationally decoupling the thrust assembly from the fuselage. The thrust assembly forms a single combined thrust force about the fuselage in order to form a more stable vehicle during flight.

Appl. No.:

16/823293

Inventors:

George J. Syrovy - Centerville MA, US

International Classification:

F03D 13/20
F03D 7/02

Abstract:

The nacelle of a horizontal axis wind turbine is fixedly mounted on a tower, and the tower is mounted off-center with respect to a ring around which it is rotatable. The tower is a tripod. Two legs of the tripod are of fixed length and lie in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the turbine blades. The third leg of the tripod is of adjustable length and is aligned with the axis of rotation of the turbine blades. The third leg thus may be controlled to adjust for pitching of the base and other purposes. Multiple turbines, spaced apart laterally, may be mounted on a platform in a fixed orientation, with the platform rotatably mounted off-center relative to a base.

Appl. No.:

14/217695

Inventors:

George J. Syrovy - Centerville MA, US

International Classification:

F01D 5/14

US Classification:

416224

Abstract:

Efficiency of a horizontal axis wind/water turbine (HAWT) is increased by the addition of a secondary blade associated with each main blade. The secondary blade is preferably a blade segment paralleling the main blade only in the outer reach of the main blade. The secondary blade travels rotationally ahead of the main blade and axially behind it, in an area in which air has not been disturbed by the main blades and in which disturbance of air by the secondary blade is not seen by the main blades. In one embodiment the secondary blade is carried by its associated main blade. In another embodiment, the secondary blades are carried by a ring or wheel which rotates with the main blades and the axle to which they are attached.
