ABSTRACT:
A multi-blade rotor for a windmill-type apparatus, including a hub supported on a shaft or a fixed angle, and rotor blades that are connected to the hub, via bearing arrangement, in such a way that the rotor blades are rotatable about their longitudinal axes. The inventive easy-to-manufacture, and relatively lightweight, hub has rotationally symmetrical hollow bodies, the number of which correspond to the number of rotor blades. The hollow bodies are mounted on rod-like or tubular pressure members, the number of which correspond to the number of hollow bodies. The pressure members are mounted on the shaft or fixed axle via bearing plates in such a way that their longitudinal central axes are respectively disposed at or nearly at the point of concentration of the bending moment surface of the pertaining hollow body. The latter are held together by a radially disposed tie rod system that includes prestressed tie rods that extend in or nearly in the axes of symmetry of the hollow bodies, with the prestress of the tie rods being such that the hollow bodies are stressed thereby with compressive forces only.
