Abstract

A fluid turbine blade device includes a vertical axis support base having a fulcrum-forming depression which acts as a first associated part, and a rotary assembly including a hub lid and a sleeve member rotatably surrounding the vertical axis support base. The hub lid has a projection acting as a second associated part and rotatably connected to the first associated part. The fluid turbine blade device further includes a plurality of blade modules mounted to the sleeve member and acted upon by fluid to drive the sleeve member to rotate, and a collision avoidance unit including a plurality of magnets disposed on the outside of the vertical axis support base and the inside of the rotary assembly to produce repulsive force.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A fluid turbine blade device, comprising:
 a vertical axis support base extending along a vertical axis, and including a top section that has a first associated part located at the vertical axis;   a rotary assembly coaxially mounted to said vertical axis support base, and including a hub lid that is rotatably and coaxially assembled with said vertical axis support base, and a sleeve member that extends downward from said hub lid and that is radially spaced from said vertical axis support base, said hub lid having a second associated part that is coaxially connected to said first associated part and that is rotatable about the vertical axis relative to said first associated part, with one of said first associated part and said second associated part including a depression and the other including an operatively associated projection;   a collision avoidance unit arranged between said vertical axis support base and said rotary assembly, and including a plurality of first magnets that are disposed on the outside of said vertical axis support base, and a plurality of second magnets that are disposed on the inside of said rotary assembly and that correspond respectively in position to said first magnets for producing a repulsive force between said plurality of first magnets and said plurality of second magnets; and   a plurality of blade modules, each blade module including a blade that is spaced from said rotary assembly, and a link rod assembly that is coupled between said rotary assembly and said blade, said blade being acted upon by fluid to drive said sleeve member to rotate   
     
     
         2 . The fluid turbine blade device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein:
 said top section includes a cavity on an upper end thereof for holding lubricant, said cavity having a bottom surface that defines said first associated part in communication with said cavity; and   said hub lid includes a lid body positioned spaced above said vertical axis support base, and a protrusion extending downward from said lid body into said cavity and defining said second associated part on a lower end thereof for rotatably associated with said first associated part.   
     
     
         3 . The fluid turbine blade device as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein said first associated part is a fulcrum-forming depression on said bottom surface of said cavity, and said second associated part is a projection downward extending from said lower end of said protrusion. 
     
     
         4 . The fluid turbine blade device as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein said fulcrum-forming depression and said projection are conical. 
     
     
         5 . The fluid turbine blade device as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein said second associated part is a fulcrum-forming depression on the lower end of said protrusion, and said first associated part is a projection extending upward from said bottom surface of the cavity for insertion into said second associated part. 
     
     
         6 . The fluid turbine blade device as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein said fulcrum-forming depression and said projection are conical. 
     
     
         7 . The fluid turbine blade device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein:
 said top section includes a cavity on an upper end thereof for holding lubricant, said cavity having a bottom surface from which a positioning column extends upward along the vertical axis, said positioning column having a top surface that defines said first associated part in communication with said cavity; and   said hub lid includes a lid body positioned spaced above said vertical axis support base, and a protrusion extending downward from said lid body into said cavity, said. protrusion including a positioning concavity on the central bottom side for insertion of said positioning column, said positioning concavity having an upper surface that defines said second associated part for rotatably associated with said first associated part.   
     
     
         8 . The fluid turbine blade device as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein said. first associated part is a fulcrum-forming depression on said top surface of said positioning column, and said second associated part is a projection downward extending from said upper surface for insertion into said first associated part. 
     
     
         9 . The fluid turbine blade device as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein said fulcrum-forming depression and said projection are conical. 
     
     
         10 . The fluid turbine blade device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said rotary assembly is rotatable about the vertical axis in a rotational direction, said blade of each of said blade modules including a first portion that has a surface extending lengthwise vertically with a width thereof being substantially radial to said vertical axis support base, and a second portion that has a wedge leading edge toward the rotation direction.
