Abstract

Wind driven apparatus is provided including upright support means and a plurality of wind directing wall members protruding outwardly from the upright support means at spaced apart intervals. The area between two adjacent wind directing wall members creates a wind collection section for collecting and directing wind in use. At least one opening is defined in the upright support means in each wind collection section for allowing wind, air and/or air pressure collected in the wind collection section to pass through said at least one opening and into an inner compartment defined in the upright support means. Drive shaft means provided in the inner compartment of the upright support means and rotatable means provided on and/or associated with the drive shaft means are rotatable as a result of air pressure and/or air flowing into the inner compartment via said at least one opening. Rotation of the drive shaft means can be used to drive electricity generating means, hydraulic pump means and/or drive transmission means in use.
