residential wind turbine

Abstract

Home Wind Turbine. The home wind turbine for buildings of all types consists of a 6-bladed fan (Drawing 1) connected to a gearbox and an attached generator (Drawings 2, 3, 4). Wind power drives the fan, and thus the gearbox and generator, producing electrical energy. The closed system (Drawing 5) is installed on buildings or usable areas. Drawing 5 illustrates the operating principle of the system.

Description

[0001] The invention specified in claim 1 is based on the problem that energy, in the form of wind, remains unused for normal household use.

[0002] This problem is solved with the house wind power system listed in claim 1.

[0003] This invention enables the conversion of wind, which is almost constantly present in a wide variety of regions, into electrical energy via a residential wind turbine. This energy can be fed into the existing power grid, making it available to other consumers and thus reducing environmental impact. The efficiently designed fan impeller converts the wind, which is independent of wind direction, into electrical energy via a gearbox in a generator. A voltage converter then transforms the energy into 220-230 volts before feeding it into the power grid.

[0004] An embodiment of the invention is explained with reference to drawings 1-5.

Claims

[1] Home wind turbine. The home wind turbine for buildings of all types consists of a 6-bladed fan wheel (Drawing 1) connected to a gearbox and an attached generator (Drawings 2, 3, 4). Wind power drives the fan wheel, and thus the gearbox and the generator. This process generates electrical energy. The closed system (Drawing 5) is installed on buildings or usable areas. Drawing 5 illustrates the operating principle of the system.
