- Fig 13 illustrate some turning phases of wind turbine head, shows when wind direction suddenly flow from cross direction then head of wind turbine turn to opposite direction to line up with new wind flow; here turning points shown by thin circle, according to the present invention.
- Wind Speed (wind speed more than resonance wind speed) ⁇ l - Deflection of Sub-Tower from mean position at High Wind
- Wind power is non conventional source of energy due to high investment and expensive to maintain in such plants this source is not widely use. Vibration, Gyration, Gust etc are the main reasons of high investment.
- vibrations are at any phase are controlled up to there resonance vibrations and also controlled gyroscopic & gust effect.
- This system avoids the complicated system like Yaw control, Pitch control etc. Therefore the cost and maintenance cost of this system will be least.
- Nacelle 1 - Nacelle 1 comprises rotor axle 16 in such way that can axle 16 vibrate to manage tilting or gyroscopic effect & low scale back impact, wherein axle 16 holding by two bearing 1.2 & such bearing surrounded by numbers of spring 13 to manage tilting effect, one bole joint LS attached to the end of the axel 16, bole joint LS supported by spring 1.6 to manage low scale back impact due to gust or fluctuation of wind flow, at central portion of axle 16 one driver bevel gear 1 ⁇ has attached to transmit power from axle 16 to driven bevel gear 1.7, driven bevel gear 1.7 supported by back side bearing 1.2 with the help of supporting component 1.8, driven bevel gear 1.7 forward power with vibration to universal joint which linked with Linear Sliding Joint.
- Sub Tower 2 - nacelle 1 mounted on sub tower 2; and sub tower 2 means comprises two solid parallel plates which are mounted on base of head 6 with the help of main universal joint 17. Thereby bottom end of sub tower 2 works as base point and top end movement up to some limit at horizontal plain means, mean position maintain by supporting number of spring 3, 13 means.
- Two parallel plates of sub tower 2 are parallel with wind direction thereby wind flow easily passes through sub tower 2 by means wake or shadow effect are negligible means in other ward cyclic effect negligible here; and such parallel plates give high structural strength as compare to tubular shape tower.
- sub-tower 2 two parallel plates
- main tower 10 & sub tower 2 are not in one line thereby this one is downwind type wind turbine but work like as up-wind type wind turbine.
- Main Back Spring 3 This main back spring 3 used to absorb or control back and forth movements or vibrations or shocks of sub-tower 2 thereby nacelle 1.

- Vane 4 - Vane 4 attached to back side of Base of Head 6. Vane 4 is flexible up to some limit with help of number of spring 5.7 to avoid there vibration to transmits in whole system.
- a Guide Plat 4.1 attached at back side of vane 4 to guide vane 4, when wind flow suddenly flow from opposite wind direction.
- the present invention is down-wind type wind turbine therefore rotor automatically line up with wind direction. But its need to line up with wind direction at very short time to avoid power loss. In account such problem, vane 4 has given, to line up rotor as early as possible to avoid power loss. Second reason is when wind direction suddenly flow from opposite (back / rear side) direction than rotor spine with opposite direction to avoid such loss vane is provided. The working of this vane at opposite wind flow has shown in Fig 13 with the help of some number of phases, in first phase Vane Guide Plat 4.1 mismatch with wind direction, because Vane Guide Plat 4.1 is one side edge plate, thereby vane turn one side shown in second phase, another phase shows remaining steps regarding line up with cross wind direction.

- Counter Weight 11 maintain in such way thereby wind force do not effect to rotor direction which lined with wind direction.
- Counter Weight 11 has triangular bar with tetrahedron ends thereby minimizes resistance of wind flow from front and both sides, Counter Weight 11 attached to base of Head 6 by using two parallel plates 18 ( parallel to ground also) thereby side to side wind flow do not resist to counter Weight 11 .
- Power Transmission Unit 12 In Power Transmission Unit 12, low speed axle 16 transmit power with all phase vibration, such power provide to gear box 11.2 and/or than generator 11.1 with the help of small universal joints 12.1, connecting roads 12.3 and sliding joints 12.2.
