Abstract:
1. A parabolic bi-directional wind turbine assembly for converting wind energy into electricity comprising; a self supporting modular box-shaped housing having an inlet and outlet with a throat section positioned therebetween, a turbine positioned in said throat section, said turbine comprising a hub, a peripheral band and vanes having proximal and distal ends positioned therebetween, a ring gear positioned on said peripheral band, a plurality of generators in mechanical communication with said ring gear, parabolic collectors positioned and attached to said inlet and said outlet for collecting, concentrating, directing and accelerating wind through the turbine at the throat section, a nose cone positioned on both ends of the hub for directing the accelerated wind outwardly to said distal ends of the vanes so that maximum torque is transferred to the turbine whereby the rotational energy of the turbine is converted into electricity by the generators.
