Abstract
A windmill includes a shaft, a blade, and a supporting member. The windmill is rotatable about a center axis of the shaft. The blade has a blade main body portion extending along an axial direction that is a direction of the center axis. When viewed in a cross sectional view orthogonal to the axial direction, the blade main body portion includes a front edge and a rear edge, the front edge being an end on a front side in a rotation direction of the windmill, the rear edge being an end on a rear side in the rotation direction. The supporting member extends along a radial direction orthogonal to the axis direction and passing through the center axis, so as to connect the shaft and the blade main body portion to each other.
