Patents by Inventor Ole Gunneskov

Ole Gunneskov has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 7503752
    Abstract: The invention relates to a wind turbine blade comprising a number of pre-fabricated strips arranged in a sequence along the outer periphery. The strips consist of a fibrous composite material, preferably carbon fibers, and consist of a wooden material, preferably plywood or wooden fibers held in a cured resin. The advantage is that it is possible to manufacture blades for wind turbines which are very stiff and generally have a high strength, but which nevertheless are easy to manufacture and also is much cheaper to manufacture compared to conventional manufacturing techniques. The invention also relates to methods for manufacturing prefabricated strips and for manufacturing wind turbine blades.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5970800
    Abstract: A method of determining the mass flow speed of a granular material through a channel by means of electromagnetic waves, preferably in the microwave area. According to the invention, either the attenuation or the phase-shift is measured or both the attenuation and the phase-shift and optionally also the reflection. Based on the knowledge of both the reflection and the absorption it is possible to determine the type of grains being involved because the proportion of these magnitudes is characteristic of the various types. When measuring especially oil-containing grains which are able to have an effect on the dielectricity constant, it is advantageous to measure the phase of the transmitted signal because the phase-shift is substantially proportional to the flow of such grains.
