Abstract
A fluid turbine includes stator fitted with fluid inlet and outlet, and a rolling rotor installed inside the confusor part of the stator at one end of a shaft, with the other end fixed in a clamp of a clamping mechanism on the stator. The shaft of the rolling rotor is fixed in the clamp of the clamping mechanism non-rotationally with the possibility of angular deflection in all directions. A generator is connected to the shaft.
Claims3
A fluid turbine comprising
- a stator, the stator comprising a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, the stator comprising confusor part and clamp,
- a shaft comprising a clamping mechanism fixed in the clamp at a first end of the shaft,
- a rolling rotor installed inside the confusor part of the stator at a second end of the shaft, wherein the shaft is fixed in the clamp so that the shaft is non-rotational relative to the clamp and angularly deflectable in all directions, and
- a generator connected to the shaft.
