ABSTRACT:
The invention teaches a turbine capable of receiving wind power and transferring wind power into mechanical energy, and capable of coupling with a generator. The turbine includes a generally flat horizontally mountable support plate capable of rotation about a central axis, the support plate having a plurality of pivot modifications located proximate to an outside circumference, and vanes coupled to the support plate at the pivot modification, each vane having a vane shaft coupled between a pivot modification on the first support plate and a pivot modification on a cap plate, each vane supported by a first rib and a second rib having an exterior edge defined as the exterior circumference edge of the head and the interior circumference edge of the tail, and a material attached between the exterior of the first rib and the exterior of the second rib.
