Abstract:

A wind turbine for use in the generation of electricity employs a generator which enables the efficient production of DC electrical power through the use of a low and variable speed and variable torque design. This design eliminates the cost and complexity of variable pitch turbine blades and/or mechanical gear boxes. The design includes a large diameter axial flux generator which utilizes either permanent magnets or current induced field coils. The design preferably employs an equal number of armature coils and field coils or permanent magnets in the case of single phase operation or 1⅓ field coils or permanent magnets for every armature coil for three phase operation. The three phase operation can also be accomplished by using three separate rotor disks on the generator with appropriate indexing of the rotor disk and armature coils.

Abstract:

An electromagnetic device is provided. It includes a plurality of input magnetic field generating devices, which will induce magnetic fields in output current generating devices. In one construction, the electromagnetic device can be operably coupled to a work input device wherein the electromagnetic device can be used as a generator set in combination with the energy input device. The input and output magnetic devices are arranged in radial arrays about a work input shaft. The output magnetic devices each include a core and a respective coil with the cores each having a longitudinal axis generally parallel to the axis of rotation of the shaft. The input devices and the output devices are mounted in respective carriers with the output device carrier being movable relative to the input device carrier.
