Publication number: 20130156581Abstract: An apparatus for generating electric power from wind energy includes a blade unit, a wind-collecting unit, and a control unit. The blade unit includes an upright shaft mounted rotatably on a base, and a plurality of blades connected fixedly around the shaft and driven by wind to rotate. A generator is connected to the shaft for converting rotational kinetic energy into electric power. The wind-collecting unit includes upright plates mounted pivotally on the base and disposed around the blades. The control unit detects rotational speed of the shaft and accordingly moves at least a portion of each upright plate between first and second positions, where the amount of wind flowing toward the blades is increased and reduced, respectively.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 15, 2012Publication date: June 20, 2013Applicant: FUNG GIN DA ENERGY SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY CO., LTDInventor: Chun-Neng CHUNG

Patent number: 8446028Abstract: An apparatus for generating electric power from wind energy includes a blade device rotatable relative to a base to convert wind energy into a mechanical rotary power output, and having an upright rod connected with upright blades and coupled to a generator in the base to convert the mechanical rotary power output into electric power. Each blade has spaced wind-collecting ribs extending vertically from a first side surface thereof, thereby defining a wind-collecting space between any two adjacent wind-collecting ribs. A wind-collecting unit includes upright plates mounted on the base, angularly equidistant and disposed around the blade device. Any two adjacent plates define an inwardly converging wind-guiding channel therebetween. The plates are non-flat so that wind is guided by the plates to blow onto the first side surfaces of the blades via the wind-guiding channels.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2010Date of Patent: May 21, 2013Assignee: Fung Gin Da Energy Science and Technology Co., Ltd.Inventor: Chun-Neng Chung

Patent number: 8375935Abstract: A solar power water heating apparatus includes a supporting device for supporting movably a mounting seat provided with a condensing unit on a mounting side thereof for concentrating sunlight onto a heat-conductive tube body in the mounting seat. The tube body absorbs thermal energy from the sunlight concentrated thereonto and transmits the thermal energy to water therein, thereby heating the water. The supporting device includes a disk member mounted rotatably on a hollow base body and driven by a drive unit in the base body to rotate relative to the base body in a central axis of the disk member, and a telescopic rod member and two upright supporting rods interconnecting the mounting seat and the disk member. A control module controls the drive unit and the telescopic rod member based on a solar radiating direction to move the mounting side of the mounting seat to face sunlight.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2010Date of Patent: February 19, 2013Assignee: Fung Gin Da Energy Science and Technology Co., Ltd.Inventor: Chun-Neng Chung

Patent number: 7969036Abstract: An apparatus includes a blade unit including having upright blades connected fixedly to an upright rod that has a lower end disposed pivotally in a base such that the blade unit is rotatable relative to the base to convert wind energy into a mechanical rotary power output, and coupled to a generator in the base to convert the mechanical rotary power output into electric power. Each blade has opposite first and second side surfaces. The first side surface of each blade faces the second side surface of an adjacent blade. A wind-collecting unit includes upright plates fixed on the base, angularly equidistant and disposed around the blade unit. Any two adjacent plates define an inwardly converging wind-guiding channel therebetween. The plates are shaped so that wind is guided by the plates to blow onto the first side surfaces of the blades via the wind-guiding channels.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2008Date of Patent: June 28, 2011Inventor: Chun-Neng Chung
