ABSTRACT:
A wind driven device for driving an electrical generator to produce electricity having a base, an anchor pole stationarily affixed to the base, and a drive assembly support rotatably mounted around the anchor pole. A plurality of gears engage the lower portion of the drive assembly support. The device also includes an upper exterior wind column support and a lower exterior wind column support. A plurality of attachment beams are connected to the drive assembly. A plurality of wind panel support columns connect to at least one of the attachment beams and to the upper and lower exterior support. A plurality of wind panels pivotally engage the wind panel support columns and is responsive to the wind such that the force of the wind against the wind panel causes the drive assembly support and the attached gears to revolve to provide for a power take off from the revolving gears to drive the electrical generator. A mobile wind panel angle selection guide is positioned around the drive assembly support to permit operation of the wind driven device when the direction of the wind changes. A method of recovering wind energy to drive an electrical generator to produce electricity having the steps of positioning the mobile wind panel angle selection guide around the drive assembly. A plurality of wind panels is mounted to the drive assembly to be guided by the mobile wind panel angle selection guide such that the force of the wind against the guided wind panels rotates the drive assembly which in turn causes the connected gears to operate the electrical generator. The position of the mobile wind panel guide is subsequently adjusted such that the force of the wind against any particular wind panel is a maximum when the particular wind panel is in a predetermined position with respect to the mobile wind panel angle selection guide.
