A wind power generator comprises a first power generator including a rotor arranged so as to be coaxial with a rotation shaft and generates electric power by the rotation of the rotor, a flywheel which is coaxial with the rotation shaft and arranged through a one-way clutch so that when the rotation shaft increases its speed, the flywheel is in an integrally rotating state with the rotation shaft, and when the rotation shaft reduces its speed, the flywheel is separated from the rotation shaft to rotate inertially, a second power generator including a rotor arranged so as to be coaxial with the flywheel and rotate integrally with the flywheel generates the electric power by the rotation of the rotor with the rotation of the flywheel, and an output portion which externally outputs any one of the electric powers generated by the first and second power generators.

Wind power generator

Biasing unit, a spindle member, and a link mechanism of a windmill for a wind power generator vary an angle of a blade in a first stage where the angle is made nearly parallel to the wind so that the blade easily rotates in light winds, a second stage where the angle is made nearly perpendicular to the wind so that the blade easily rotates at high speed when the wind speed increases, and a third stage where the blade is pushed back from the state of being nearly perpendicular to the wind to the state of being nearly parallel to the wind so as to prevent the excessive rotation in strong winds, without electrical control being not required. Accordingly this wind power generator has an excellent starting performance and can control the excessive rotation at low cost.
