Abstract

According to a feature, the present invention comprises: a housing having a power generator provided therein; a rotating body coupled to the housing so as to rotate; rotary support bars coupled to the outer peripheral surface of the rotating body so as to rotate integrally with the rotating body around the housing; resistance plates formed in a plate shape, generating resistance by means of gas or fluid, and having fixing grooves formed to be recessed inwards from one side surface thereof such that the rotary support bars are rotatably inserted therein; and an angle restricting part for rotatably coupling the resistance plates to the rotary support bars such that the range of a rotational angle of the resistance plates is restricted, the resistance plates are in a vertical state so as to generate resistance in a forward direction in which the gas or fluid moves and the resistance plates are in a horizontal state so as to prevent the resistance from being generated in a reverse direction, wherein the rotating body rotates by the resistance power generated by the resistance plates and the power generator generates energy by means of the rotating power of the rotating body which rotates. The present invention as described above can provide the structure of the resistance plates of an energy generation apparatus, the structure in which the rotating body rotates by the resistance power generated by the resistance plates and the power generator can generate energy by means of the rotating power of the rotating body which rotates.

 a housing having a power generator provided therein;   a rotary body rotatably coupled to the housing;   a rotary support bar coupled to the outer circumference surface of the rotary body to rotate integrally with the rotary body about the housing;   a resistance plate formed in a plate shape and having a fixing groove formed to be recessed inwards from one side surface thereof such that the rotary support bar is rotatably inserted thereinto, the resistance plate generating resistance by means of gas or fluid; and   an angle restriction part for coupling the resistance plate to rotate about the rotary support bar but coupling to restrict the range of a rotation angle of the resistance plate, such that the resistance plate is in a vertical state in a forward direction in which the gas or fluid moves so as to generate resistance, and the resistance plate is in a horizontal state in a reverse direction so as not to generate resistance, and   wherein the rotary body is rotated by resistance power generated by the resistance plate, and the power generator generates energy by means of rotational force of the rotating rotary body.   
     
     
         2 . The resistance plate structure of the energy generation apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the angle restriction part comprises:
 a protrusion protruding from the outer circumference surface of the rotary support bar and having a first outer surface and a second outer surface formed thereon; and   a clearance groove formed to be recessed from one side of the inner circumference surface of the fixing groove of the resistance plate to have a radius greater than that of the fixing groove, and having a first locking protrusion and a second locking protrusion formed on both ends thereof, the protrusion of the rotary support bar being inserted into the clearance groove, and   wherein, when the resistance plate is rotated by the gas or fluid, the locking protrusions of the clearance groove is caught by the protrusion and rotation is restricted, such that the resistance plate is in the vertical state or the horizontal state according to a moving direction of the gas or fluid.   
     
     
         3 . The resistance plate structure of the energy generation apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein an angle between the first and second locking protrusions of the clearance groove of the resistance plate is greater than 90° and smaller than 180°,
 wherein the first outer surface of the protrusion and the first locking protrusion of the clearance groove, and the second outer surface of the protrusion and the second locking protrusion of the clearance groove are formed to be parallel with each other so as to be brought into surface contact with each other when the resistance plate is rotated, and 
 wherein the rotation angle of the resistance plate between in the vertical state and in the horizontal state is smaller than 90°, and, when the resistance plate is in the horizontal state, the locking protrusion is caught by the protrusion, such that a minimum resistance angle is formed with respect to the horizontal plane, and, when the end surface of the rotary support bar faces the gas or fluid in the forward direction, resistance is generated by the minimum resistance angle and the resistance plate  140  is rotated about the rotary body and thereby enters the vertical state. 
 
     
     
         4 . The resistance plate structure of the energy generation apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the resistance plate comprises an upper resistance part and a lower resistance part protruding upward and downward with reference to the fixing groove,
 wherein one of the protruding lengths of the upper resistance part and the lower resistance part is longer than the other one,   wherein the lower resistance part is heavier than the upper resistance part,   wherein, when the rotary body is rotated facing the forward direction of the gas or fluid, that is, the advancing direction, the resistance plate is in the vertical state so as to generate resistance, and, when the rotary body is rotated in the reverse direction, the resistance plate is in the horizontal state so as not to generate resistance and is not influenced by the flowing direction of the gas or fluid.   
     
     
         5 . The resistance plate structure of the energy generation apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the resistance plate comprises a connection hole formed on the outer surface thereof and passing with the fixing groove,
 wherein the rotary support bar comprises a locking groove recessed along the circumference of the outer surface thereof to be inserted into the fixing groove and to face the connection hole, and   wherein the resistance plate structure further comprises a separation prevention pin which is inserted into the connection hole and has its end locked into the locking groove, and thereby prevents the rotary support bar from being separated from the fixing groove.   
     
     
         6 . The resistance plate structure of the energy generation apparatus of  claim 2 , further comprising an angle adjustment part coupled to one or more of both side surfaces of the protrusion to adjust angles formed by both side surfaces of the protrusion and spaced from each other,
