New Wind Power – The Wind Belt Invention
September 9th, 2010
Shawn Frayne invented an inexpensive non turbine wind generator called the wind belt. I have no specs other than what you see on the video. I imagine it’s use on the roof of an electric car but obviously it can be used anywhere there is wind. The bennefit is that it is very inexpensive to build as opposed to a standard turbine wind generator. The fan simulates the wind which moves the belt which moves the magnets through the coils to make electricity to power the clock and LEDs. I don’t know how much the output voltage is.

you could stack like hundreds of these insted of the huge wind turbines
lots of smart-asses on here and equally alot of ignorance. this idea does work but needs some work but then wilbur and orville never flew the very first time they got the idea, and how many times did edison invent the lightbulb before he got one that worked. if you aint got nothing to say except negative comments go someplace else
So………… it is harmonic oscillation?? the main thing in this generator is that the flexible turbine thingy should be able to survive harsh wind speeds……. interesting
interresting basic concept. could result in “micro harvesting” fences. but i doubt its cost efficient with copper coils. printable piezo-like films might be the better choice here.
@hammer663tube Wow.. that’s a really unbelievable comment… I really hope you were joking.
@hammer663tube You have got to be kidding! Your comment is total crap!
save the music for a party. how about some speaking to tell us more about it without blasting our ears ?
Big DEAL this exactly how a GUITAR PICK UP works.
the Vibrating string causes a disturbance on the Magnetic field,
of the PERMANENTLY fixed Magnet in the middle of the coil.
in FACT, by mounting the magnets on the coils and using a thin Steel strap you can get better efficiency as YOU DONT have to move the mass of the magnets back and forth. only DRAG the magnetic FIELD across the conductors.
VOILA! better efficiency.
Don’t forget to GIVE ME CREDIT!
is this guy from guatemala or something
@lolerdelol In theory it would be more efficient: but the problem is that the string that vibrates due to the wind probably won’t vibrate very regularly because of the wind-distorting magnet attached to it.
Besides that, I wouldn’t be surprised if a faster moving magnet would cause more friction because of induction, which would make regular vibration difficult.
Very interesting…Would be interesting to see how many individual belts could be stacked and the output increased many fold. May be a good idea for a restricted area’s where a regular configuration would not work or be allowed.
would it be posible to make power with sound, using this consept???
@JakeDRoach
Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico have developed an environmentally friendly engine with no moving parts that is powered by sound waves.
Built on the principle of a 19th century pump invented by Robert Stirling, who discovered that cooling and heating gases could drive a piston, the thermoacoustic Stirling heat engine produces sound from heated helium within the engine. The sound waves then drive a piston which in turn generates electricity.
@hammer663tube Most understood the electric fan was used for demonstrative purposes only, nothing other than that was implied.
no offense but you would need really concentrated wind to get this to work properly. won’t be as good as a basic wind turbine.
can you use it to power the fan blowing into it?
@mylvl200wizardpwnsjk
That’s highly unlikely. There is always a loss of energy.
Even in motors powered by permanent magnets with an outside electrical current assist which only appears to be overunity is still drawing force from the magnets so even at that it may be highly efficient but not overunity & not perpetual according to dictionary terms but I do encourage people to always reach for the “impossible”.
What’s impossible today is possible tomorrow.
Well, well this quite a twist I really like what ya got here because of it’s hyper sensitivity to air flow and it’s linear design I see this device being applied to motor vehicles prehaps behind the grill or maybe the rear spoiler area to power up on board batterys or drive HHO generators.keep on plugging away kid ya got something here…
we must get off forign oil and stop sending our paychecks to power companies and big corporations
heat and air are a huge peice of the power consumtion pie. and combine with other power generation like vertical wind turbines (the cylinder ones so you dont have to have extra height for spinning blades) along the peak of yer roof and solar pannels on the roof for power and heating of water. we must widen our range of thought we must make things more efficent and use all the options. when it sunny usually less wind rainy/cloudy more wind we must use it all.
if one will power a radio thats imperssive, say with a little r and d you could get 10 watss out of 1 band you could put 100 bands in your duct work. 10 watts X 100 bands = 1000 watts of extra power . you will probaly never reach a unity of power on anything. engineered correctly you could have very little drag on vent system. too bad there was music in vid couldnt tell if it was noisey , but that could be tuned out by changing length and tension of band.
This is brillant, while it might not be efficent on a large scale application ie. large fields of them in iowa, it could be used to make things we use everyday more efficent say in heating and cooling ducts in homes exhaust ventalation in factories.
I always thought of connecting a generator and a motor to each other….thus as he motor spinds it spins the generator which powers the motor
@malaka135
I used to think the same thing but there is always going to be a loss of power
no matter what.
