A device of floating wind turbine comprises a floating foundation, wind turbines provided on the floating foundation, and a seabed anchor attached to the floating foundation, wherein the floating foundation is symmetrically provided with two wind turbines; the floating foundation and the two wind turbines are attached to the seabed anchor by tethers, whereby when the wind turbines are driven to generate electrical power, they respectively exert an upward force and a downward force at a center portion of the floating foundation between the two wind turbines; both turbines have an approximately equal speed and output power; whereby the upward force can be counterbalanced by the downward force, so that the wind turbines and the floating foundation can be maintained at a balanced condition.
A device of floating wind turbine capable of counterbalancing torques therein, comprising a floating foundation, two wind turbines provided on said floating foundation, and a seabed anchor attached to said floating station and said wind turbine by tethers so that said floating foundation can drift on the sea along wind direction to have blades of said wind turbine aligned with wind direction, the device characterized in that:
