  • Patent number: 9048705
    Abstract: Provided is a wind power generating apparatus including a generating tower that has a wall surface in which a plurality of through-holes for inflow of wind are formed, wind inlet walls that protrude outwardly from the respective through-holes so as to guide the inflow of wind, a generating blade that rotates by means of the wind introduced into the generating tower, a generator that generates electricity in conjunction with the rotation of the generating blade, a wind inlet port formed through the respective through-holes formed in the wall surface of the generating tower, and a wind contact member, which is connected to an end of the generating blade, which has a triangular pyramid shape with an open front surface so as to extend the area pressurized by the wind introduced through the wind inlet port, and which has a flow channel dividing member arranged across the open front surface.

  • Patent number: 5950758
    Abstract: Disclosed is a rear wheel neutralizing system for a four-wheel steering vehicle, including an actuator for returning rear wheels to their neutral positions; a potentiometer for detecting a returning displacement to the neutral position of the wheel; a motor for operating the actuator; a vehicle speed sensor for detecting vehicle speeds; and an electronic control unit for determining whether the four-wheel steering system is malfunctioning and for operating the motor while receiving a signal from the vehicle speed sensor. The rear wheel neutralizing system further comprises an encoder for detecting the angular velocity of the motor and transmitting a signal on the angular velocity to the electronic control unit.
