Abstract: An electric generator for windmill installations has a simple and efficient design, including a stator having a coil, a rotor having a base, a lid, and magnets. Rotor magnets are arranged on the lid and base along an annular line with a predetermined gap, and the coil, fixed by ring-shaped plates on both sides thereof, is mounted between the magnets with a minimal gap. The gap between the ring-shaped plates and the magnets is filled up with magnetic liquid. The coil is formed of three windings, located in radial grooves of a matrix, including outer and inner parts. The ring-shaped plates and matrix are made of dielectric non-magnetic material, the base and lid are made of magnetic-flux conductive material. The poles of adjacent magnets on the base and lid have opposite polarities. The poles of magnets mounted on the base face the magnets mounted on the lid with opposite polarities.

Abstract: The proposed device relates to the field of wind power engineering and can be used as a rotor in wind power installations with a vertical axis of rotation. The rotor includes a central hub, a bearing ring, including a plurality of segments, and blades vertically mounted on the ring in two tiers. The ring is connected to the hub by flexible tensioning members supported by fastening assemblies, secured on the hub and vertically spaced apart. The flexible tensioning members connected to the upper fastening assemblies are length-adjustable. The flexible tensioning members connected to the lower fastening assemblies are equipped with turnbuckles. The fastening assemblies are equipped with rotatable plates having horizontal pivot pins, which are vertically spaced apart. The proposed device makes it possible to improve the balancing of rotor.
