OSTI ID:5246888
A wind powered generator is disclosed for generating electrical energy comprising a generator which has no slip rings between its field and armature, and which when mounted on a tower is controlled through suitable control mechanism to adjust the power output to a level compatible with the load and storage equipment, as well as the existing wind conditions. The armature is fixedly mounted on the support (which can turn about an upright axis) and a housing carrying permanent magnets rotates around the armature. Bearing means stably support the housing and the armature and the propeller is easily mounted on the housing. The device is made to be relatively maintenance free and capable of unattended generation of electricity over extended periods of time.
