CA 2734773

A wind power extraction device has a rotor with a hub and a rim coupled to the hub through a plurality of blades. The blades rotate the rotor about an axis of rotation passing through the hub in response to a wind moving generally parallel to the axis of rotation. A mount coupled to the rotor extends and retracts the rotor between a first configuration aligning the rotor axis of rotation substantially horizontally, and a second configuration aligning the rotor axis of rotation substantially vertically. The device may have components of an electric generator mounted in or near the rim.

L'invention porte sur un dispositif d'extraction d'énergie éolienne, qui comporte un rotor avec un moyeu et une couronne couplée au moyeu par l'intermédiaire d'une pluralité d'aubes. Les aubes font tourner le rotor autour d'un axe de rotation passant par le rotor en réponse à un vent se déplaçant globalement parallèlement à l'axe de rotation. Une monture couplée au rotor étend et rétracte le rotor entre une première configuration alignant l'axe de rotation du rotor sensiblement horizontalement, et une deuxième configuration alignant l'axe de rotation du rotor sensiblement verticalement. Le dispositif peut comporter des composants d'un générateur électrique monté dans la couronne ou au voisinage de celle-ci.
