A shaft brake mechanism of wind power generator, including a first brake assembly and a second brake assembly independent from each other. The first brake assembly serves to provide braking effect for the shaft of the wind power generator against rotation. The second brake assembly serves to naturally restrain the rotational speed of the shaft from exceeding a nominal upper limit of rotational speed. Accordingly, the wind power generator can still safely operate in a situation that the wind speed exceeds a nominal upper limit of wind speed. Therefore, the wind speed range for the operation of the wind power generator is widened to increase the total power generation capacity thereof.

1. A shaft brake mechanism of wind power generator, comprising: a shaft;an annular disc coaxially fixedly fitted around the shaft and synchronously rotatable with the shaft;a clamping section having two first fulcrums and two elongated rock arms each having a first end, a middle section and a second end, the middle sections of the rock arms being respectively pivotally connected with the first fulcrums, the clamping section further having two clamping members respectively pivotally connected with the first ends of the rock arms and rotatable between a clamping position and a releasing position, when positioned in the clamping position, the clamping members tightly abutting against two faces of the disc to brake the disc against rotation, when positioned in the releasing position, the clamping members moving away from the two faces of the disc, a resilient member being bridged between the second ends of the rock arms for resiliently keeping the clamping members in the releasing position;a link section having a second fulcrum and a bar member having a first end, a middle section and a second end, the first end of the bar member being pivotally connected with the second fulcrum, whereby the bar member is rotatable about the second fulcrum between a first position and a second position, the link section further having a push block with a substantially trapezoidal cross section, the push block having two lateral slopes respectively adjacent to the second ends of the rock arms, a middle section of the push block being pivotally connected with the middle section of the bar member, when the bar member is moved to the first position, the push block being urged to move toward the first ends of the rock arms and interpose between the second ends thereof, whereby the two lateral slopes push the second ends of the rock arms away from each other to make the clamping members move to the clamping position, when the bar member is moved to the second position, the push block being moved from between the second ends of the rock arms, whereby the resilient member applies a resilient force to the rock arms to restore the clamping members to the releasing position; anda drive section for supplying power to drive and reciprocally move the bar member between the first position and the second position. 2. The shaft brake mechanism of wind power generator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the clamping section includes a U-shaped support, the U-shaped support having two free ends serving as the first fulcrums respectively. 3. The shaft brake mechanism of wind power generator as claimed in claim 1, wherein each clamping member has a clamping plate, a lining attached to one face of the clamping plate and a pivot block disposed on the other face of the clamping plate, the pivot blocks of the clamping members being pivotally connected with the first ends of the rock arms respectively. 4. The shaft brake mechanism of wind power generator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the push block is board-shaped. 5. The shaft brake mechanism of wind power generator as claimed in claim 1, wherein a slide slot is formed at the second end of the bar member, the drive section including a linear actuator and a connection rod, one end of the connection rod being connected with a power output shaft of the linear actuator, the other end of the connection rod extending into the slide slot and being slidable within the slide slot.
