ABSTRACT:
A wind driven engine comprising a base, a housing which is rotatably mounted on the base, and two vertical rotors which are rotatably mounted in the housing and which are substantially enclosed by the housing. The blades of the vertical rotors overlap. An air diverter is centrally mounted inside the housing and in front of the rotors so as to divert air entering the housing onto the blades of the rotors which are adjacent the sides of the housing. The air diversion results in contradirectional rotation of the rotors, i.e., one rotor rotates clockwise and the remaining rotor rotates counterclockwise. An air vent is centrally placed in the housing above the air diverter to evacuate air from behind the air diverter. The vent is enclosed by an air shield which aids the evacuation of air through the vent. The contradirectionally rotating rotors are mechanically joined to an energy receiving system so as to be substantially self-timing and torque-free.
