The pod of wind-powered generator is constituted by a rigid fairing in which at least one electricity generator for coupling to at least one wind-driven propeller is disposed. The rigid fairing of the pod is formed by the body of the generator in which there are mounted a stator and a rotor, thereby simplifying the structure of the pod.

1. A wind-power generator pod comprising:a rigid fairing in which at least one electricity generator is disposed for coupling to at least one wind-driven propeller, wherein the rigid fairing constitutes a body of the generator in which a stator and a rotor are mounted, such that the stator contacts the fairing, and wherein lateral openings extend through the stator: the rigid fairing is surrounded by a tubular sleeve forming a substantially annular air passage between the rigid fairing and the tubular sleeve; the tubular sleeve has an end portion which is flared outwardly; and the end portion which is flared outwardly is disposed towards an end of the fairing which is opposite the wind-driven propeller. 2. The pod according to claim 1, in which the rigid fairing is attached to the stator of the generator via an interference fit.3. The pod according to claim 1, in which the generator is coupled to the wind propeller via an epicyclic gearbox.4. The pod according to claim 3, in which the gearbox is mounted inside the rigid fairing.5. A wind-powered generator comprising a pod according to claim 1 and mounted to swivel at the end of a mast.6. The pod according to claim 1, wherein the tubular sleeve is shorter in length than the fairing.
