High Efficiency Turbine And Method Of Generating Power

View page
US Patent:
8393853, Mar 12, 2013
Filed:
Nov 19, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/985971
Inventors:
Christopher R. Sauer - Tampa FL, US
Patrick McGinnis - Jenkintown PA, US
Igor Yatskar - Tarpon Springs FL, US
Millard S. Firebaugh - Annapolis MD, US
Assignee:
Ocean Renewable Power Company, LLC - Portland ME
International Classification:
F03B 3/12
US Classification:
415 72, 416176
Abstract:
A turbine includes a plurality of blades that rotate in a single direction when exposed to fluid flow, wherein the plurality of blades are joined to the central shaft by a plurality of radial spokes disposed substantially perpendicular to the central shaft such that the rotating plurality of blades causes the shaft to rotate. The plurality of blades has a uniform airfoil-shaped cross section, where the airfoil cross section presents a non-zero angle of attack to the current. The plurality of blades wind in a spiral trajectory, rotating around the central shaft and having a variable radius along the length of the central shaft such that a distance measured from the plurality of blades to the center shaft is greater near the center of the turbine than at either end.

High Efficiency Turbine And Method Of Generating Power

US Patent:
20100140947, Jun 10, 2010
Filed:
Mar 30, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/414279
Inventors:
Jarlath McEntee - Castine ME, US
Christopher Sauer - Portland ME, US
Patrick McGinnis - Jenkintown PA, US
Millard Firebaugh - Annapolis MD, US
International Classification:
F03B 13/00
F03D 3/06
F03B 3/12
F03D 11/00
US Classification:
290 54, 416 1, 416184
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a turbine comprising a pair of opposing end discs concentrically aligned with a central axis of the turbine and a plurality of blades extending between the end discs. At least one end discs is adapted for engaging with a generator for generating power. The plurality of blades rotates in a single direction when exposed to fluid flow and thereby rotates the pair of opposing end discs. The plurality of blades are interconnected by at least one faired ring oriented parallel to the pair of opposing end discs and intersecting the plurality of blades, wherein the at least one faired ring is in concentric alignment with the central axis. The present invention further comprises a method for generating power comprising engaging the turbine with a generator to create a turbine generator unit and deploying the turbine generator unit within a fluid flow.

Autonomous Underwater Vehicles

US Patent:
20200400117, Dec 24, 2020
Filed:
Mar 1, 2018
Appl. No.:
16/975554
Inventors:
- Portland ME, US
Nathanial Hayes - Topsham ME, US
Millard Firebaugh - Annapolis MD, US
International Classification:
F03B 17/06
B63G 8/08
B63H 1/08
F03B 13/10
Abstract:
Underwater vehicles capable of self-propulsion are described. An underwater vehicle includes a cross-flow turbine including two or more foils spaced apart from a main shaft. The foils have a pitch that is adjustable under control of a pitch control mechanism. The underwater vehicle also includes a frame supporting the main shaft. The frame enables rotation of the cross-flow turbine. The underwater vehicle additionally includes a generator-motor set including rotor and stator elements. The rotor element is in rotary communication with the main shaft.
