Abstract
A cavity vertical turbine includes a rotatably driven electric generator or air compressor, a drive shaft operably connected to the electric generator or air compressor to cause rotation thereof, a first member having a cavity vertical surface and being connected to the shaft such that the cavity vertical surface opposes the drive shaft such that the cavity surface opposes the drive shaft in a spaced relation therefrom, a second member having a cavity surface and connected to the shaft such that said cavity surface opposes the drive shaft in a spaced relation therefrom, wherein the cavity surfaces are further characterized to be in opposing partially overlapping relation to one another and a device for suspending the members in a manner which permits freedom of movement between an operable and inoperable position by virtue of forces of air current directed at the members.
