Abstract

The water energy converter comprises spherical floats linked together to form a closed chain vertically immersed in the water. To obtain the net upward force required for motion, the side of the chain moving downwards into the water enters through a lock, which comprises a tube of slightly greater than the spherical floats. The floats have a circumferential sealing ring so no water escapes past the float as it passes through the lock tube. The upward side of the continuous float chain has guide rails to ensure vertical motion of the float chain near and above the surface. The hydrostatic force pushes the floats upwards and rotates a wheel with arms which collect projections on the float chain at the coupling between floats. The wheel drives an electric generator. An idler wheel, of the same construction, is placed at the bottom of the water container to guide the float chain.

Description

Tout corps plongé dans un liduide en équilibre reçoit de la
prt de ce liquide une pousse verticale dirigée de bas en haut étale
au poids du liquide déplacé. (@rincipe d'Archimède).
Any body immersed in a balanced liduid receives
close to this liquid a vertical shoot directed from bottom to top spreads
the weight of the liquid displaced. (@rincipe d'Archimède).

En application de ce principe, le dispositif tassant l'objet
de l'invention a pour but de réaliser une production d'énergie conti
nue, sous forme d'énergie électrique
Le dispositif est caractérisé principalement par une haine
de corps flottants reliés entr'eux à l'image d'un@ chapelet fermé I,
Fig.I (Pl.I/2). ta chaîne est immergée verticalement dans un bassin 2, d'une certaibe profondeur par l'intermédiaire d'un sas vertical @ étanche, ouvert aux deux extrêmités m. A l'opposé du sas, sous la pour ssée de lteau sur les corps flottants, la channe remonte S la surface dans un mouvement linéaire continu de bas en haut guidée par des tiges verticales 4.
In application of this principle, the device compacting the object
of the invention aims to achieve continuous energy production
naked, in the form of electrical energy
The device is mainly characterized by hatred
floating bodies linked together like a closed rosary I,
Fig. I (Pl.I / 2). your chain is immersed vertically in a basin 2, of a certain depth via a vertical @ watertight airlock, open at both ends m. Opposite the airlock, under the pouring of water on the floating bodies, the chain rises to the surface in a continuous linear movement from bottom to top guided by vertical rods 4.

Les corps flottants sont constitués selon Fig.2 (Pl.II/2) d'un ensemble de ballons cylindriques 5 liés parallélement entrleux par deux chaînes d'éléments montées à chaque extrêmité des ballons, composées d'une tige transversale 6, portant h choque extremité une pièce de chape 1, mâle ou femelle, assemblées par un axe portant a chaque bout un galet 8, la chape ayant pour objet d'assurer une liaison articulée des ballons entr'eux. Ceux-ci sont en outre équpés d'une ceinture longitudinale en matière souple destinée O assurer l'étan- chéité du sas par frottement léger sur les parp@@ internes de celui-ci. The floating bodies are made up according to Fig. 2 (Pl.II / 2) of a set of cylindrical balloons 5 connected in parallel between them by two chains of elements mounted at each end of the balloons, composed of a transverse rod 6, carrying h extremity shock a piece of yoke 1, male or female, assembled by a pin carrying at each end a roller 8, the yoke having the object of ensuring an articulated connection of the balloons between them. These are further provided with a longitudinal belt made of flexible material intended to ensure the watertightness of the airlock by light friction on the internal parts thereof.

ta channe entraîne dans son mouvement linéaire le mouve- ment rotatif de trains de roues 9, (haut et bas). tes roues sont munies de dents 10, dans lesquelles s'emboîtent les galets de la chape, l'une des roues est le renvoi, l'autre considérée comme roue motrice porte dans son prolongement d'arbre à l'extérieur du bassin une poulie Il, (Fig.3 (Pl.II/2), entraînant la génératrice de courant I2;
Le bassin peut être réalisé sous forme de puits ou de gaine étanche verticale au-dessus du sol adossée extérieurement ou inté- rieurement à un corps de bâtiment.
ta channe drives in its linear movement the rotary movement of wheel sets 9, (up and down). your wheels are provided with teeth 10, into which the rollers of the yoke fit, one of the wheels is the gear, the other considered as a driving wheel carries in its extension of the shaft outside the basin a pulley It, (Fig.3 (Pl.II / 2), driving the current generator I2;
The basin can be made in the form of a well or vertical waterproof sheath above the ground, leaning outside or inside a building body.

L'on voit donc que sous la poussée verticale de l'eau de bas en haut sur les ballons normalement placés, le dispositif réalaise un procédé simple et économique de production d'énergie continue, sans faire appel à une autre source d'énergie extérieure. We therefore see that under the vertical thrust of the water from bottom to top on the normally placed balloons, the device realizes a simple and economical process of continuous energy production, without calling on any other external energy source .

l'énergie fournie par le procédé dépend de trois facteurs
I - - le volume des corps flottants, 2" le nombre dejoeux-ci to- La hauteur d'eau du bassin qui est liée à la longueur de la chaîne. La simplicité de l'installation et son encomnbrement réduit permet à celle-ci d'être édifiée sur le lieu ou à proximité du lieu de consommation, permettant ainsi l'équipement en anergie de sites isolés, supprimant par conséquant certains travaux annexes tels que lignes de transport et réseaux de disfribution, gros consommateurs de kw par effet Joule. Le prix de revient du kw nstallé, relativement- élevé du fait de la dimension assez réduite des installations est ridement amorti par la production d'une énergie perpétuelle pratiquement gratuite.
the energy supplied by the process depends on three factors
I - - the volume of the floating bodies, 2 "the number of games therein to- The height of the water in the basin which is linked to the length of the chain. The simplicity of the installation and its reduced size allows it to be built on the place or near the place of consumption, thus allowing the anergy equipment of isolated sites, consequently eliminating certain ancillary works such as transmission lines and distribution networks, large consumers of kw by Joule effect. The cost price of installed kw, relatively high due to the rather small size of the installations, is ridiculously amortized by the production of perpetual energy practically free.

Dans un domaine particulier d'utilisation, l'on peut citer la production économique d'hydrogène par électrolyse. In a particular field of use, mention may be made of the economical production of hydrogen by electrolysis.

Exemple sommaire : Soit une installation de dimensions ré#duites comprenant une chaîne de trente ballons cylindriques, selon les caractéristiques suivantes D = Om;@0 , L = I m , Volume 270 dmc. Poids : 50 kg.  Summary example: Or an installation of reduced dimensions comprising a chain of thirty cylindrical balloons, according to the following characteristics D = Om; @ 0, L = I m, Volume 270 dmc. Weight: 50 kg.

poussée réelle : 220 kgg soit pour 10 ballons logiquement
immergés pour recevoir la poussée de bas en haut : 2200 kg.
real thrust: 220 kgg or 10 balloons logically
submerged to receive the push from bottom to top: 2200 kg.

Perte globale due aux frottements divers et à la poussée
inverse sur les ballons à leur sortie du sas : 50 % Vitesse linéaire de la chaîne : me.
Overall loss due to various friction and thrust
reverse on the balloons at their exit from the airlock: 50% Linear speed of the chain: me.

Soit en définitive une force de IIOO kgm. imprimée à la
roue motrice.
In other words, a force of 1100 kgm. printed at
Driving wheel.
