Wind power system

Abstract

The invention relates to wind power generation, and more particularly to systems for producing power at sea using floating vessels. The invention solves the problem of providing more efficient use of floating wind power systems. The problem of interest is solved in that a wind power system comprises a floating base in the form of a ship having on its deck three wind turbines on vertical posts, one of which is disposed on a fixed platform on the fore part of the deck, said ship additionally being provided with two rotating platforms, capable of moving in a horizontal plane, for receiving the other two wind turbines, wherein the rotating platforms are arranged symmetrically along the sides of the aft part of the ship, one on the left and the other on the right, with one end of each rotating platform being hinged to the hull of the ship and the other end supporting the base of a wind turbine post, the posts of all three wind turbines being mounted so that they can be raised and lowered and being coupled to their respective platforms by hinged joints, wherein each post is provided with its own lowering and raising mechanism, and each rotating platform is provided with its own mechanism for movement in a horizontal plane.
