Roof mounted wind energy collection device
Abstract:
A wind energy collection device configured to be mounted to the roof of a structure, the device optionally comprising: a support frame to be fixed to the roof of a building; a wind turbine impeller mounted to the support frame, the impeller supported by a turbine shaft oriented in a fixed horizontal and vertical position relative to the frame. The impeller optionally coupled to a generator to convert rotational movement of the impeller to power that can be stored and/or transmitted. The device may also comprise at least one directional panel configured to direct the wind to at least one impeller vane of the impeller such that the impeller rotates in a rotational direction due to force exerted by the wind blowing in a first direction; and the directional panel is repositionable so as to direct the wind blowing in a second direction opposed to the first direction such that the impeller rotates in the rotational direction.
