When a wind velocity sensor detects a wind velocity higher than a predetermined level, a timer device starts a waiting timer function during an operation timer period shorter than the waiting timer period. After the waiting timer period is over, the waiting timer function is switched to an operation timer function, and a switching relay switches a generator to a motor only during an operation timer period. Then, a driving circuit performs a start assisting rotation. After the operation timer period is over, the waiting timer period re-starts. This process is repeated. When during this period, the number of rotations of a rotor monitored by a rotation number measuring device, based on the output voltage Vm of a three-phase conduction coil exceeds a predetermined number of rotations, the charging of a battery by a three-phase generator is started.
A fixed angle wing lift type horizontal shaft wind power generating device with a start assisting function, comprising:
A method for operating a fixed angle wing lift type horizontal shaft wind power generating device comprising a permanent magnet type generator for generating in connection with a rotation shaft of a rotation wing which is rotated in the forward direction by the wind, a switch unit for switching the generator to a motor, a wind velocity measuring unit, a first time counting unit and a second time counting unit having a time counting period longer than a time counting period of the first time counting unit, comprising:
