Abstract

A device intended to produce electrical power for a house or other user comprises a hydraulic pump 5 and turbine 8 connected in an endless loop 7 so that the pump 5 supplies the turbine 8, which returns fluid to the pump 5. It is claimed that energy supply 1 to the unit is only required for starting, and once running, the output from the turbine generator 8 is sufficient to power the pump 5 and provide a useful power output. It is anticipated tat the unit could be supplied ready assembled and pressurised.

Description

* 2458390 Page 1 Home Hydro Power Unit
I Specification
This invention relates to a device for creating electricity by kinetic energy whilst reducing Carbon Dioxide (C02) emitted into the atmosphere by the end users. This invention is called the Home Hydro Power Unit (HHPU).
The method of creating electricity using hydro turbines is not a new science.
However, this invention combines a number of pieces of technology together within a single compact unit intended for installation and use within every home, retail premises or commercial units. This invention is an all in one sealed pressurised hydro electric power generating system with a built in power inverter. The net effect is a device that produces enough electricity to power the premises in which it is installed whilst reducing the amount of C02 emitted into the environment.
This invention is preassembled in a factory with the pump and pressure pre determined to suit the size and demand of the dwelling in which the unit will be installed.
Figure 1; On installation the engineer connects the Home Hydro Power Unit to a mains power supply (2). The mains power supply is already connected to the main fuse board (3) which is in turn already connected to the national grid (1) by the network provider.
The installation engineer will set the built in timer (4) to the correct time at installation and pressurise the system.
Once set the built in timer (4) will demand an initial power feed from the national grid (1) to start the pump (5). The pump (5) creates the water flow necessary to produce the power. The water flows through the pressurised pipe work (7), through the hydro turbine (8) causing the mechanism to rotate and return to the pump (5). This process is continuous until the timer (4) switches the pump (5) off. The power demand from the grid supplier is only required at initial start up of each session.
The technology within the hydro turbine (8) creates the power which is then fed to the power inverter (9) via a cable (10). The power inverter (9) is connected to the fuse board (3) by a second cable (11) for use by the end user. Any surplus power will be directed to the national grid (1) via the fuse board(3) to be utilised by other users.
Once operational the Home Hydro Power Unit is a self generating device and no further power is required from the national grid (1) Alternatively and depending on the power required to run the pump, the HHPU can be operated using a photovoltaic tile (figure 2), a battery pack or any other form of power source.
