Title of Invention : Vertical wind turbine connected to the rotating tower

Technical Field

[0001 ] The technical field of this invention relates to the power generation by the wind turbine.

Background Art

[0002] Wind turbine with stationary vertical support tower and airflow-directing shell, Application Number: 07733039, A wind turbine with a stationary tower and a set of turbine blades rotatably attached to the top and bottom of the tower.

[0003] A set of upper and lower braces connects the turbine blades to prevent any sag or skewing of the turbine blades as they rotate about the tower. The wind turbine may also include a stationary shell attached to the tower and inside the sweep of the turbine blades, to direct the airflow toward the turbine blades at the shell periphery, thereby improving overall performance and efficiency of the turbine.

[0004] The present invention differs with the claimed one in many ways.

Technical Problem

[0005] Wind energy exploitation for power generation is a common practice.

However, turbines are usually installed as a separate structure and are not attractive aesthetically. On the other hand, the construction of the structure with a rotating upper part is not cost-effective and a lot of energy is required for its rotation.

[0006] Using wind energy by vertical turbines is always the best option in many

locations, mainly because of cost-effective installation and maintenance, as well as simple installation in low elevation. At the same time, residents of a residential or commercial penthouse in 360-degree view can enjoy various aesthetically landscapes in minimum cost. Summary of Invention

[0007] In this invention, some unique blades are embedded which start from the top of the glass dome, extend around it and ending up below the dome plate. All of these blades are used to slow rotation of the tower. This vertical wind turbine, while rotating the structure to see the various views and landscapes around the tower, provides the electrical power required by the penthouse from wind power by the generator.

[0008] Meanwhile, a gearbox can be used to convert low round to high round which is required generator, especially in low wind speed climates (The optimum speed for turbine rotation is one round per hour).

Advantageous Effects of Invention

[0009] · Generation of energy required by penthouse to harness wind energy.

[0010] · Construction of a rotating tower for enjoying 360 degree view using clean energy

Description of Embodiments

[0014] Three blades (1 ) are embedded in the top of the turbine, which is the upper part of the main blades (3. a). Lower and inside the container in roof of dome, the gearbox and generator (2) are located to which harnessed energy by blades is transferred.

[0015] The three main blades also are extended in the middle section (3. a) of the turbine. But for optimum utilization of wind energy, the turbine in the middle section also has three secondary blades (3.b). These three secondary blades start from the dome roof and end to under the dome plate. The same part where the power of the blades is transmitted to the gearbox and generator. The main and secondary blades are connected by a ring and indeed all blades act in integrated manner. [0016] As a result, the middle part of the turbine has six blades. In this part and below the blades, the dome (4) is located. In order to use the surrounding landscape, this dome can be made of transparent glass. In fact, the lower part of the main and secondary blades are stiffeners (5) located under dome plate, which provide more stability for dome and their curvature helps harnessing much more wind energy. The structure rotates by a bearing (6) that can be embedded on the tube and below the dome plate.

[0017] .Under the glass dome plate which is placed on the tube, there are 6 stiffeners to provide stability for the dome on the tube, the curvature of which, according to Fig. 1 , helps controlling more wind energy. The stiffener edge is connected to triple vertical blades on domes through those blades extended to around glass dome. In fact, a combination of three main blades (3a) and three secondary blades (3 b) forms a specific blade every other (Fig. 3), which is responsible for tower structure rotation.

[0018] The integration of these three elements, including the stiffeners, the blades around the dome and the vertical blade (which altogether forms turbine blades), can harness the wind, rotate the structure, allowing seeing multiple landscapes as well as generating the energy required by the penthouse. In the tower, a hollow tube (7) is used as a pillar or base. It is also used as an elevator cabin to lift people to the penthouse.

[0019] The main Blades consist of three parts:

[0020] 1 -upper part (1 ) - (vertical blade)

[0021 ] 2-Middle part (3.b) - (which is located on the glass dome)

[0022] 3-lower part (3. a) - (which is formed by the curvature of stiffener under the dome)

[0023] All of six blades are connected by one or more rings (8), making the blades act like a single blade.

[0024] The secondary Blades consist of two parts:

[0025] 1 -Middle part (3.b) - (which is located on the glass dome) [0026] 2-lower part (3. a) - (which is formed by the curvature of the stiffener under the dome)

[0027] In fact, the lower part of the main and secondary blades are the stiffeners (5) located under dome plate, which provide more stability for dome and their curvature helps harnessing much more wind energy. This part in main blades extends vertically to the top of the dome. It should be noted that in order to harness much more wind, the blades (3) around the glass dome (4) should be slightly spaced from the glass dome.
