Abstract
A device is proposed which accumulates and stores energy of blowing wind. Rotatable means turn the device into the direction of the blowing wind, so that articulated flaps are fully exposed to the wind. These flaps are connected with air pumping means which delivers a quantity of air into a storage container, the air being successively compressed within the container.
Claims6
An accumulator storing wind energy comprising at least one air pumping device, at least one hinged flap adapted to be turned into the wind, the said air pumping device being actuated by the said flap whenever the latter faces the direction from which wind blows and a container into which the air is pumped, the said air pumping device being connected by a conduit with said container, the whole assembly of above elements being rotatively held, means being provided to cause the assembly constituting the accumulator device to turn with the wind blowing.
An accumulator device storing wind energy comprising four bellows, four hinged flaps adapted to be turned into the wind, each of the said four bellows being functionally connected to one of the said flaps, and thus of said bellows being actuated by its connected flap whenever the latter faces the direction from which wind blows, and a container into which the air is pumped, each of the said bellows delivering air into a container with which it is connected by a conduit, the whole assembly of above elements being rotatively held, means being provided to cause the assembly constituting the accumulator device to turn with the wind blowing.
An accumulator device storing wind energy comprising four piston-in-cylinder pumps, four hinged flaps adapted to be turned into the wind, each of the said four pumps being functionally connected to one of the said flaps, and thus each pump being actuated by its connected flap whenever the latter faces the direction from which wind blows, and a container into which the air is pumped, each of said pumps delivering air into a container with which it is connected by a conduit, the whole assembly of above elements being rotatively held, means being provided to cause the assembly constituting the accumulator device to turn with the wind blowing.
