  • Shrouded wind turbine system with yaw control
    Patent number: 8794903
    Abstract: A wind energy systems includes a shroud for each turbine. The shroud is adapted to direct and accelerate wind towards the turbine. A strong adaptable support assembly is provided for securing turbines to a structure. An air glide yaw assembly facilitates rotational movement of the structure allowing the turbines to face oncoming wind. The turbine blades are optimized for use with a shroud.

  • Combined torque and thrust overload responsive tool holder
    Patent number: 4507025
    Abstract: A tool holder assembly which includes a support and a chuck for a tool is disclosed in which the tool holder may be responsive to either torque or thrust overload, or a combination of both. The tool holder includes a movable signal member in the form of a longitudinally movable sleeve which may be actuated rearwardly to actuate a proximity switch to stop rotation of the tool holder assembly, for example. Spring means acts between the chuck and the support, with this spring means being preloaded. A hemispherical projection and a conical recess act between the chuck and the support so that if a longitudinal thrust is provided on the tool and chuck, it is transmitted directly through this projection and conical recess to additionally prestress the spring means and to rearwardly move the signal member sleeve.
