' for even when the blades comprising them are not subjected to an adverse eifect by the fluid over a part of its course which counteracts the movement, their system of o eration in the active part of --this course is efective inasmuch as it is inseparable from the formation, down stream of eddies and discontinuities from which the kinetic energy given up to the fluid which has passed through the apparatus, represents an appreciable loss.
2. Their eripheral speed, in almost every case, is at t e most equal to that of the wind which entails the provision of large active-surfaces and a heavy and costl transmission.
as for its object a turbine in which the blades which receive the action of the wind always'present the same surface to the direction of the relative wind, and furthermore rotate at such a speed that this relative wind only undergoes a limited angular displacement with regard go she tangent of the trajectory of these '18. es. s
It is thus possible to give these blades stream line section analogous to that of the wings of birds, that is to say, offering the minimum resistance to forward movement and capable of converting into mechanical energy the maximum available amount of 40 energy of the fluid by means of the useful component of the transverse thrust which In the particular embodiment illustrated in Fig. 1, theblades a, whereof each is piv- Figure 6 is a diminished view in elevation of the perferred embodiment of my invention shown in Figure 2. 1
My turbine is so constructed as to offer a speed which much exceeds the speed of the current and in this event theratio is very great and'since the angle between the relative speed w and the ri heral. s d u will in no case exceed t e limiting eadin angle after which there would be produce a separation of the lines of the current along the profile, I may dis ense with the oscillation of the blades an hold them ri dly in position between two supporting 'scs or plates e. The blades a may be secured to their supporting disc e b any suitable means or method, such as weldin or the like.
The blades a may be eit er rectilinear and parallel to the shaft so as to form, when assembled, a cylindrical drum or squirrel cag:
as shown in Figures 2 and 6, or they may shown in the drawings.
In the examples described above the utili- 45 otally mounted on an axle b, are connected j with a kinematic device which may consist of the links 0 attached to a common eccentric zation of a fluid current of indefinite dimensions and constant direction, or on the other hand, variable in every direction, has been ring (1 which rotates, with the turbine; so that when in rotation,'the said blades will 5 .oscillate to a moderate degree on-either side considered, such as the wind, a river or torrent which is not canalized, rolling or choppy sea, etc.
It is possible, without departing from the scope of the invention, to arrange the above described wheels in channels it or tanks of a form suitable for directing the fluid on to direction for each of the half circles which separate the points 6, the utilization of all the stream lines of the fluid is'complete with the exception of course of the friction losses due in particular to the resistance of the blade section and the losses due to leakage through the gaps.
