- the object of the invention is a speed stabilizing gear drive system for generating utility-grade electric power, comprising a drive means connected to a generator and to a variable-speed input.
- the prior art includes numerous solutions for electric energy generating wind power plants as far as controlling the speed of the wind turbine rotor and the speed of the generator are concerned.
- the application of variable-speed windmills suitable for better exploiting the energy of fluctuating winds and synchronous generators rotating at the synchronous rpm determined by the pole number of the generator and mains frequency has gained considerable ground.
- a drive system with variable gear ratio has to be applied.
- the document a US 5,140,170 includes a drive system with variable gear ratio.
- the rotor of the wind turbine is connected to the generator running with synchronous rpm through a transmission assembly comprising an epicyclic gearbox supplemented by a hydraulic circuit.
- a hydraulic pump is attached through gears to the ring gear of the epicyclic gearbox of the transmission stage before the generator, the pump being adapted to prevent (with the help of the hydraulic circuit connected to it) the rotation of the ring gear in low wind-speed conditions but gradually enabling the rotation of the ring gear as the speed of the wind increases, thereby providing a substantially constant torque for driving the synchronous generator.
- the aim of our invention has been to provide a drive system that is capable of producing constant-speed output for driving a fixed-speed generator, preferably a synchronous generator in case a variable-speed input (resulting from fluctuations in wind speed, flywheel rpm or water energy) is present.
- the object of our invention is therefore a speed stabilizing gear drive system for generating utility-grade electric power, comprising a drive means connected to a variable- speed input and to a generator.

- Generator 2 is preferably a synchronous generator rotating with a synchronous speed corresponding to the electric power grid.
- the drive means 1 has two degrees of freedom in all embodiments, and thus the energy flows of the fixed-speed generator 2 and synchronous motor 3 and that of the varying-speed input 4 can be coupled together.
- the internal state of motion of the two degree-of-freedom drive means is determined by the dynamic conditions, and thus, according to the principle of least action the drive operates at optimal efficiency.

- the input 4 is connected to any one of the interconnected sun gears, ring gears, or planet carriers of differential gear systems Dl, D2, or to any one of the drive gears Hl, H2.
- a necessary condition for the proper operation of the drive system is that the kinematic gear ratio of the drive means 1 between the connection points of the synchronous motor 3 and the generator 2 should be a specific and constant value.
- phase synchronization of the generator 2 to the power grid should always be ensured.
- an adjustment or control unit 5 is disposed between the synchronous motor 3 and the drive means 1. This unit 5 is applied for adjusting the relative angular position of the stators of the synchronous motor 3 and the drive means 1 to the desired value, and thus providing synchronized-phase operation of the generator 2.
- the synchronous motor 3 may be connected to the electric power grid directly or through a phase control circuit.
- Phase synchronization of the generator to the electric power grid can be achieved by means of connecting the generator 2 to the power grid through an electronic synchronizing unit, preferably a sync relay.
- an electronic synchronizing unit preferably a sync relay.
- the wind turbine of a wind power plant or an energy storage flywheel may also be applied.
- the inventive drive system has the particular advantage that the rotational direction of the input 4 is reversible, and thus the shaft of input 4 may even undergo reciprocating rotary motion. Thanks to that, the drive system according to the invention may be advantageously utilized in tidal or wave power plants.

- the input and output element can be a sun or ring gear as well as a planet carrier.
- Drive gears Hl, H2 may be implemented as simple gear drives, planetary gear sets, chain drives or other types of drive, the sole requirement being that they should exactly (that is, with an error of 0%) realize the necessary kinematic gear ratio.
- the constant kinematic gear ratio of the drive is determined by the respective internal kinematic gear ratios L j ⁇ l 311 ⁇ *n2 ⁇ 2 0 ⁇ differential gear systems Dl and D2, and the respective kinematic gear ratios k ⁇ i , k-rro of drive gears Hl,

- the kinematic gear ratio of drive gears Hl, H2 can vary in a wide range, corresponding to application requirements.
