| 1. | TURBINE2 Sections Metal: High Carbon Steel, Hardened and Tempered. Tensile Strength 830 N/mm 7 1st PartTOP a) Series of wind blades angled to catch wind at optimum angle b) Not quite vertical, slightly overhanging angle of 91°to undercut wind. c) Top is 11 metres diameter. Bottom is 10 metres diameter. 2nd PartBOTTOM a) Shallow angle of 20 b) Bottom diameter is 30 metres. |
| 2. | HOUSING 50 metres wide diameter made of High Tensile Cast Iron. Compressive Strength 700850 N/mm, Tensile Strength 370 620 N/mm. Where it meets the surface of the ground it is angled at the rim. The foot underneath is 15 metres diameter at the bottom of the foot it is 25 metres diameter. Through the centre of the whole structure leading from the generator in the turbine straight through the centre of the foot is a hole for electrical wires which go directly to the NickelIron battery store further underground. The metal housing is surrounded by concrete. |
| 3. | In between the turbine and the housing is a sufficient gap to allow lubrication to ease the turning of the turbine in the housing. This also should allow for metal expansivity when the turbine gets hot. |
| 4. | A staircase is built so that somebody can go underground to collect energised batteries which can be retrieved by a small hut built just on the surface to the side of the Cyclone Energy Collector System. |
| 5. | On one side of the housing a port can be opened in order to remove the turbine. |
| 6. | The railway system is 1000 metres long which allows the turbine to slide to and fro in order to follow the wind system. |
| 7. | This also has a port so that the turbine can be removed it also has hut, staircase etc. One further addition are the rubber bumpers at the inside ends of the rail in order to protect the turbine when it hits the end of the railway. P. T. O. |
| 8. | The Lattice is a formation of many single 1000 metre railways so that a large area can be used to catch a wind system especially tornadoes. The lattice is built in a known area where tornadoes strike i. e. Tornado Alley in America. The lattice should be placed away from coastlines and floodplains as best as possible. Otherwise the Cyclone Energy Collector System should be built on a huge platform like a NorthSea Oilrig this is only a last resort. *Depth from top of Turbine to bottom of foot ~ 30 metres. AMENDED CLAIMS [received by the International Bureau on 12 January 2000 (12.01.00); original claims 1 to 7 replaced by new claims 1 to 4 (1 page)] 1. Turbine at"A""1". 30 metres wide. Very heavyengineered solid structure, (i. e. not hollow). EX<LEfr/t&cc.<L.$PtT<. Made from metal. |
| 9. | 2 Metal surround at"2". 50 metres wide. Very heavyengineered solid structure, (i. e. not hollow except where turbine fits in), Perhaps engineered into 2 parts. |
| 10. | 3 Metal foot very heavyengineered solid structure together as part of the surround. A hole goes right through to carry electrical cable. Found at"3". |
| 11. | 4 Metal railway very heavyengineered solid structure (i. e. not hollow except where turbine fits in) as several parts that fit together. Found at Fig."A2". |
"1"is part of"A"and"1"and"A"spin together as one piece as the wind blows."1"has built in an electric generator"B" which when turns produces the electricity."1"has very shallow angles in order for it to remain within the overall apparatus i. e. it doesn't get blown away. 20 degrees is about the correct angle."C"is the gap between"1"and metalic surround"2".
This caters for the expansion of the metal when it heats up.
The gap"C"also is filled with a semi-liquid lubricant.
"3"is the metalic foot which holds the apparatus firmly with perhaps some give."4"is a bank of Nickel-Iron batteries which can be re-charged over and over again, they have at "E"energy-indicators built in to show the amount of electricitycontained within them."5"is an underground stairway which links the battery bank to the surface to a sturdy concrete hut at"6". All the apparatus is surrounded by concrete at"7".
"F"is the wire which sends the electric current from"B"the generator to"4"the battery bank.
America has 1000 tornadoes every year. On the Fujita scale 5 is the largest. If all the energy of a hurricane or tornadoe were harnessed it has been said that it could power the needs of all of the U. S. A. for 6 months continously. In the usual event that homes and electricity lines are destroyed the CEC system would be a valuable source of energy in the event of this natural disaster.
To avoid flooding the CEC System should be built ont the highest ground possible and as far inland as possible.
Apart from the U. S. A., Central America and Northern South America, Australia, India and Japan CEC Systems will be built on the hundreds of Islands in the Pacific Ocean between Japan and Australia and the Carribean Islands too many to individually name here.
