Windmill Blade And Processes Related Thereto
US Patent:
4003676, Jan 18, 1977
Filed:
Jan 15, 1975
Appl. No.:
5/541248

International Classification:
F03D 700
US Classification:
416132B
Abstract:
A windmill blade that has a rigid leading edge, a rigid root portion and a movable blade tip. Control of the geometric twist of the windmill blade is accomplished through proper selection of the axis of rotation for the movable blade tip and by controlling the position of the windmill blade tip with a servo motor or by controlling the position of the windmill blade tip with a spring and a weight. The ability to vary the geometric twist of the blade enables the frequency of rotation of the blade to be controlled to reduce wind drags upon the blade. This improved windmill blade eliminates the need for current complicated and expensive rotor hubs which are used to vary the blade pitch angle at the root end of the blade to reduce wind drag upon the blade. Processes related to the windmill blade are also presented.
