Inventor: SMITH RODNEY I
IPC: E01F15/02
Filed: 2010-09-28
Abstract: Increased resistance to displacement of a barrier or barrier sections, thereof in response to a lateral force without anchoring or bolting harrier sections together is achieved by providing an attachment arrangement near the top of an end of barrier sections which is capable of carrying a tensile force and developing that tensile force using a tightening bolt/n?t arrangement located at deflection stops at lower comers of the barrier sections to develop a compressive force. The barrier sections are thus rigidly attached together such that a lateral force applied to one or more barrier sections is partially transferred to additional attached barrier sections effectively increasing the mass against which the lateral force is applied. The tightening bolt/nut arrangements are retained by and are captive to the respective barrier sections when barrier sections are disassembled from each other.

Title: A turbine with a shield member
Inventor: TAY BOB
IPC: F03D3/06
Filed: 2010-08-09
Abstract: A wind turbine for capturing energy from a fluid flow comprises a rotor having a rotational axis and a plurality of rotor blades (104) arranged for rotation about the rotational axis. The rotor blades extend longitudinally in a direction substantially parallel to the rotational axis. A shield member V3 is arranged to shield some of the rotor blades from an oncoming wind where incidence of the wind on those rotor blades would act against rotation of the rotor in the direction of rotation. The rotor blades (104) are distributed about the circumference of the rotor and are spaced from the rotational axis, defining a substantially cylindrical space within the rotor through which the wind passes. The shield member V3 is defined by a radially inward surface and a radially outward surface. The radially inward surface follows substantially a portion of the circumference of the rotor. The radially outward surface of the shield member V3 comprises a first portion which meets the radially inward surface. In the region of the interface with the radially inward surface, the first portion extends in a first direction n that makes an angle of at least 0 degrees and up to 90 degrees in the contra-rotational direction with the radial direction of the rotor. The radially outward surface of the shield member V3 comprises a second portion which meets the first portion. At least a portion of the second portion extends in a second direction p that makes an angle of more than 0 degrees in the contra-rotational direction with the first direction n. The turbine has improved power output and efficiency compared to earlier similar designs.
