[0034] The utility model will be further explained in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments, so that the person skilled in the art can better understand the utility model and can be implemented, but the embodiment is not as the limitation of the utility model.

[0035] Referring to Figures 1-4 The utility model discloses a wind driven generator with variable-paddle function, which comprises:

[0036] A main body 100, at least two blades 200, a hub 300, a main shaft 400, a gearbox 500, a generator 600 and a variable-paddle device 700; the at least two blades 200 are connected through a connecting piece 800; the hub 300 is movably connected with the connecting piece 800; the main shaft 400 is rotatably connected with the main body 100, one end of the main shaft 400 is connected with the hub 300, and the other end of the main shaft 400 is connected with the generator 600 through the gearbox 500.

[0037] The pitch control device 700 includes a telescopic component 710, an intermediate connecting rod 720, and an arc-shaped connecting rod 730. The telescopic component 710 is connected to the main body 100. A through hole 410 coaxial with the main shaft 400 is provided, and the intermediate connecting rod 720 is slidably connected in the through hole 410. One end of the intermediate connecting rod 720 is connected to the output end of the telescopic component 710. The axis of the arc-shaped connecting rod 730 coincides with the axis of the blade 200; the two ends of the arc-shaped connecting rod 730 are a first end and a second end, respectively; the first end is movably connected (e.g., hinged) to the other end of the intermediate connecting rod 720; and the second end is movably connected to the connecting member 800. The telescopic component 710 extends and retracts to drive the blade 200 to rotate around its axis to achieve pitch control.

[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, the output end of the telescopic component 710 drives the intermediate connecting rod 720 to extend and retract in the main shaft 400, thereby causing the arc-shaped connecting rod 730 to drive the blade 200 to rotate around the axis of the blade 200 to change the pitch. It has a simple structure, compact layout, stable and reliable operation, low cost, and does not affect the layout of other components of the generator 600.

[0039] Furthermore, there are two arc-shaped connecting rods 730, which are symmetrically connected to both sides of the middle connecting rod 720. Specifically, the two arc-shaped connecting rods 730 provided in this embodiment make the operation smoother and more stable.
