A hydroelectric generator system (14) including a rotor (22) mounted for rotation about its axis on a base (10), and a plurality of hinged vanes (28) mounted to and extend radially outward from the rotor (22). The vanes (28) are designed to open to a fully extended position on the upstream side during a portion of rotation of the rotor (22) and to closed to a nested position during a portion of rotation of the rotor (22), wherein the flow of water from the upstream side to the downstream side impinges upon the vanes (28) and opens them to the fully extended position to drive the rotor (22). The rotor (22) or the vanes (28) may be completely submerged.

L'invention concerne un système de générateur hydroélectrique comprenant un rotor monté pour tourner autour de son axe sur une base, et une pluralité de palettes pivotantes montées sur le rotor et s'étendant radialement vers l'extérieur du rotor. Les palettes sont conçues pour s'ouvrir en une position totalement ouverte du côté amont pendant une partie de la rotation du rotor et pour se fermer en une position fermée pendant une partie de la rotation du rotor. Le flux d'eau, qui s'écoule de l'amont vers l'aval, est incident sur les palettes et les ouvre en une position complètement ouverte pour entraîner le rotor. Le rotor ou bien le rotor et les palettes peuvent être complètement immergés.
