A rope (3) is described for a tropospheric aeolian generator (1) composed, in length, of at least one first sector (4) adapted to resist to repeated flexure cycles, having a safety coefficient (S1), a diameter D(b1) and an aerodynamic resistance coefficient (CD1); at least one second sector (5) adapted to resist to repeated traction cycles with great load, having a safety coefficient S2
Abstract:
An infrastructure of a tropospheric wind generator is described, comprising a variable geometry system (1) for driving at least one sail (2). The variable geometry system (1) composed of at least one pair of arms (11, 12) adapted to deviate tethers (13) to be able to drive the sail (2) allows increasing a wing opening (21) of the sail (2) to favour its take-off.
Abstract:
A modulating circuit breaking phase-meter (2) is described, adapted to regulate and transmit electric power from an electric energy dispensing system (1 ) to at least one user (U1 U2, Un), comprising at least a precision clock (CI, C2,..., Cn) locked to at least one electric current phase of the electric energy dispensing system (1) and at least one power modulator (Tl, T2,..., Tn) cooperating with the precision clock (CI, C2,..., Cn) at least for limiting an electric load supplied to the user (U1, U2,..., A).
Abstract:
A rope (1) is described, in particular for controlling at least one wing profile, comprising at least one thread (11) and strands (21, 31) made of metallic or plastic material, as elements supporting a tension load, wherein the rope (1) comprises at least one substance (12, 22, 32) coating, and preferably impregnating, the threads+ and strands (11, 21, 31), such substance being, adapted to prevent a mutual contact between the threads and strands (11, 21, 31) and to compensate, through its own elastic deformation, a relative elastic deformation between the threads and strands (11, 21, 31), in which the substance (12, 22, 32) is adapted to fill interstices (13, 23, 33, 43) between the threads and strands (11, 21, 31) making the rope (1) compact, and the substance (12, 22, 32) is at least one elastomer.
Abstract:
A device (3) is described, for cleaning/drying at least one sliding rope (1), comprising at least one cleaning/drying means of at least one portion of a first section (11) of said rope (1) during its sliding movement next to such cleaning/drying means.
Abstract:
A tensioning and tension-measuring device (1) of a rope (3) is described, comprising a first supporting means (5a) of a first end (3a) of the rope (3); a second supporting means (5b) of a second end (3b) of the rope (3), the second end (3b) being connected to a working load; a mobile tensioning means equipped with a third supporting means (5c) of an intermediate section (3c) of the rope (3) interposed between the first and the second supporting means (5a, 5b), the third supporting means (5c) being taken in compression of the intermediate section (3c) through the action of elastic means (6); a measuring means adapted to measure a value χ of a linear distance d or an angular distance a included between a reference point and a position of the measuring means and to send such value χ to processing means adapted to indirectly compute a value σ of tension of the rope (3) through a function σ = f(x, k), where k is an elastic coefficient of the elastic means (6).
Abstract:
An arc-type wing (1) with high aerodynamic efficiency is described, composed of a central arc section (13) connected to pairs of bridles (11, 12) through a pair of shoulders (14, 15); each shoulder (14, 15) supports a panel (2) equipped with an air brake (21), and the panel (2) houses on board sensors, electric energy accumulators, micro- turbines, and a card for collecting data emitted by the sensors.
