The wind powered mechanical and electric power generator, is a process and apparatus which uses the mechanical advantage of a lever arm to multiply the energy of a moving or mobile weight which is wind powered from a propeller drive, and converts by gravity and mechanical advantage said energy to useful work. The unit consists in its simplest form of a counter balanced wheel on one side of a centerline shaft and a concentrated weight on the opposite side, both kept rigid by a connecting structure beam, the entire unit made to revolve around the centerline shaft by moving a mobil weight around the wheel perimeter in concert with the units rotation so as to continually produce an off-balance of weights, which then uses gravity to cause the total unit to rotate. The mobile weight is driven around the wheel by a wind powered small propeller.
What is claimed is the method of converting wind energy to mechanical energy by the use of the mechanical advantage of the wind energy providing a continuously off-balance condition wherein gravity is put to work assisting the wind energy in the production of energy for useful work such as mechanical rotary motion or generation of electrical energy by the;
