3D model description

A simple and economical project to produce energy at home

Obtaining clean energy from wind power is currently considered a rapidly developing sector for the future.

Knowledge in this field will be essential to enhance a future job.

By arranging it in a place exposed to the wind (a small balcony, terrace, land... ...so on) you can simply obtain energy for a mobile phone, turn on the lights or by expanding the project with some electronic modules, expand the uses.

To complete the project you will need some non-printable, cheap and easy-to-find components. I have given a description, links and images below

Vertical modular wind generator printable in all mechanical parts can be assembled in three configurations.
All mast and sail parts are hand assembled with molded bolts and nuts.
The project is easy to print (no brim no support) ssembly of the parts

Project parts description:

Support shaft :
rotor base,
anchor base,
Central module 2 pieces,
Top,
Terminal

the sails are arranged on 4 levels on 3 radial supports with an angle of 120Β° degrees with a paraboloid curvature of torsion 18Β°- 9Β°

n.6 Sails mounted on central module mo
dules with vertical twist of 18 degrees size 180 x 200 mm

n.6 Sails mounted on top/base with 9 degrees vertical twist size 180 x 100 mm

wind generator overall height 90cm
Maximum width 40cm

Total area 330,000 mm" of the sails
Effective continuous surface of the sails 110,000mm"

Anchorage and conversion support base

see pictures for assembling the molded parts with the 2 turntables, dynamo, pulley and bungee cord.

Technical data for making printable bolts and nuts:

40 bolts for fastening sails, (2 nuts and 2 bolts for each sail)
6 long bolts for tightening the entire shaft
hole diameter 10 mm
bolt diameter 9 mm
thread pitch 2 mm jump 1.2
gap between nut and bolt 0.4mm

with these links you can get what you need to complete the project with a few Euros
