JPS635176A - Power engine using buoyancy by liquid - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To aim at saving energy, by reciprocating an object by use of buoyancy by liquid to rotate a hydraulic turbine for obtaining power. CONSTITUTION:Water in a water reserving tank 19 is raised through a liquid container 3, and is then circulated through a container 1 in which liquid is filled. An object 2 which may float in liquid is disposed in the container 1 so that it is subjected to reciprocating motion. With this arrangement, liquid is raised into a container 9, and is then used to rotate a generator for power generation. Accordingly, it is said that energy is effectively obtained since vertical motion may be repeated with the rational device and operation.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] When an object floating in a liquid rises, it rises as the liquid level rises, and when it falls, it falls.

This engine uses the energy from this vertical (reciprocating) motion for power.

To raise the liquid level, liquid must flow into the container, and to lower it, liquid must be drawn out. (Hereinafter, the liquid will be referred to as water, and the liquid surface will be referred to as the water surface.) The purpose of the present invention is to repeat this motion using rational equipment and operations, and to utilize the resulting energy for power.

The movement of water required to raise and lower the water surface can be accomplished by using a portion of the energy possessed by objects moving up and down, and the actual power is obtained by subtracting this energy.

Therefore, the ability of this engine is determined by how far it can move a heavy object with a small amount of water.

This will be explained in detail below.

■Buoyant force is equal to the weight of the water being displaced, so the larger the volume of the underwater part of an object, the greater the force that can be obtained, so it can be made as large as necessary. , ■If the water container and the floating object have the same capacity and volume, if they are made vertically elongated rather than flat, the distance of vertical movement will be larger under the same conditions.

■゛The following methods can be used to reduce the amount of water used.

O Reduce the gap between the container and the object as much as possible.

O As mentioned above, make it into an elongated shape like a cylinder.

A telescopic device, such as a bellows type device, is attached to the bottom of a floating object to create a space below the object when it rises, thereby reducing the amount of water used. (Of course, it has waterproof and pressure-proof functions, and has an air inlet and outlet.) See Figure 3 Next, there are various ways to periodically drain the water from the container.
- In general, I think it is appropriate to use a low tank drain valve system for flush toilets.

I have described the purpose, structure, and function of the invention above, and I believe that buoyancy is a great source of energy that exists in the natural world because it allows you to easily obtain as much external force as you need.
