The upper jaw retainer plate 33c have measured thick¬ ness spacers on both ends to prevent said plate from restricting the movement of the upper jaw and is welded to the face of the housing. Bearings can also be used to address the problem of friction and binding of said jaw. The lower jaw 33d is attached at a measured distance of the top and a measured distance afront of the upper jaw 33b by means of a pivoting joint to the moveable plate 33a. Both jaws have measured horizontal lips whereto enable the seating of the horizontal lip of the lower jaw 33d upon the horizontal lip of the upper jaw 33b.

Operation-Fig. 1 to 11

Each of the primary rods 23a-b-c-d of the torque rod powered motor is mounted upon a designated crank of the crankshaft 26 of the electric motor powered crankshaft motor 25 (Fig. 1 ) at a measured distance upstream of their mounting rod 19. The cranks of the electric motor powered crankshaft motor 25 are a measured length whereto elevate the extreme end upstream of the primary rods mounting rod of the primary rods a planned height whereto elevate the extreme end upstream of the secondary rods mounting rod of the secondary rods 18a-b-c-d connected at a measured distance upstream of the primary rods mounting rod 19 of the primary rods 23a-b-c-d by means of connecting brackets a measured height whereto have a measured amount of clearance between the bottom of the female cylinders of the extendable piston brackets 3a-b-c-d and the crankshaft 2 of the torque rod powered motor 1. This clearance do both, prevent the restricting of movement of said crankshaft 2 and enable the extreme end upstream of the primary rods mounting rod 19 of the primary rods 23a-b-c-d to be supported by the crankshaft of the crankshaft motor 25, thus preventing any of the torque generated by the power stroke of the crankshaft motor 25 from being absorbed over¬ coming the negative torque of elevating the remaining rods of the torque rod powered motor 1.

The clockwise rotation of crank 26a of the crankshaft motor 25 apply, pressure upon the extreme end upstream of the mounting rod of the primary rod 23a of the torque rod powered motor 1 , forcing the downward movement of said rod 23a and generating a desired amount of torque upon said rod's extreme end. That torque is multiplied by the length upstream of the pivotable connecting bracket A, which is a planned multiple of the length downstream of said bracket. That torque is further multiplied by having the connecting bracket A mounted upon the primary rod 23a connected to the extreme end upstream of the mounting rod 14 of the second¬ ary rod 18a, The number of times the torque from the primary rod is multiplied is governed by the length upstream of the extend¬ able piston bracket 3a mounted upon the crankshaft of the torque rod powered motor 1 which is a planned multiple of the distance downstream of said extendable piston bracket. The downward movement of the extreme end of the secondary rod 18a pull the movable plate 33a of the timer 33 connected to said rod by means of the bracket 40a downward. The horizontal lip of the lower jaw 33d connected to the movable plate 33a by means of a pivotable joint being seated upon the horizontal lip of the upper jaw 33b, pull the upper jaw downward. The upper jaw 33b being attached to the extreme end upstream of the pivoting joint of the timing rod 37a, pull said end downward forcing the extreme end downstream of the pivoting joint of the rod outward where it apply pressure upon the enlongated face of the crankshaft disc controller 6 forcing it to pivot outward on its axis and simutaneously expanding the spring 6a, thus releasing the crank¬ shaft control disc 5 and enabling the crankshaft of the torque rod powered motor to be powered a calulated number of degrees by the multiplied torque of the torque rods.

The rotation of the crankshaft 2 force the gear driver 9 of the momentum controller 7 (Fig. 5) to engage the horizontal part of the teeth of the specially designed gear 8, powering said gear The specially designed gear's shaft being attached to the input shaft of the step-up gearbox 10, power said shaft. The output shaft of the step-up gearbox being attached to the shaft of the generator 13 by means of a bushing and the step-up shaft adapter 12 (Fig. 6), power said generator. At a further calulated descend of the secondary rod 18a, the lobe of lower jaw 33d of the timer 33 engage the releaser 33e. The planned angle of the lobe force the upper extreme end upstream of the pivoting joint of the lower jaw to pivot a planned degree to unseat the horizontal lip of said jaw from the horizontal lip of the upper jaw at a calulated descend of the secondary rod 18a while simutaneously expanding the spring 33f. The lower jaw pressure applier 33g prevent the dis-engagement of the lower jaw 33d from the upper jaw 33b until the desired time to prevent the timing of the system from being disrupted. Upon the dis-engagement of the lower jaw from the upper jaw, the spring 33f contract, repositioning the lower jaw against said jaw's stop 33j . The spring 39a attached to the timing rod 37a contract re-elevating the extreme end upstream of the pivoting joint of said timing rod 37a whereto have the rod's lower ex¬ treme end dis-engage the enlongnated face of the disc controller 6 whereto premit the spring 6a to contract and reposition the disc controller 6 to intercept a designated bar on the face of the crankshaft control disc 5 whereto position the crankshaft for the next stroke.

Simutaneous with the just mentioned chain of events taking place on the downward stroke of the primary rod 23a, crank 26d of the electric motor powered crankshaft motor 25 is elevating the extreme end upstream of the mounting rod of the primary rod 23d. At a planned elevation of said rod, the upper angle of the lobe on the lower jaw 35d of the timer 35 engage the underside of the releaser 35e simutaneously with the angled head of said lower jaw engaging the angled head of the upper jaw 35b forcing the extreme end upstream of the pivoting joint of said jaw 35d to pivot a measured degree. At a further measured ascend of the primary rod 23d, the angled lobe clear the releaser and the horizontal lip of the lower jaw 35d clear the horizontal lip of the upper jaw en¬ abling the spring 35f to contract and reseat the horizontal lip of the lower jaw 35d upon the horizontal lip of the upper jaw 35b premitting the chain of events that took place for crank 26a to place for crank 26d at a planned revolution of the crankshaft of the electric motor powered crankshaft motor. The sequence of the four crank motor system is a-d-c-b.

Referring to Fig. 9, which is a diagram of the self sustaining charging system of the invention. A measured portion of the generator's output is sent through the rectifier 41 and the volt¬ age regulator 43 across battery B while battery A power the electric motor 29. At a measured time coils 44-45-46-47 are energized by the electric timer 42 connecting battery B to the electric motor 29 and disconnecting the ground wire. A measure seconds later, coils 48-49-50 and 51 are de-eaergized disconnecting battery A from the electric motor and connecting the ground wire whereto route the charging current across battery A. The connecting and disconnecting of the batteries are electi- cally controlled by the timing means 42 whereto have a live battery connected to the electric motor at all times.

Referring to Fig. 10, which is a schematic of the motor speed control system that is controlled by the rpm of the generator. The cable of the rpm gage 52 is mounted upon the shaft of the generator 13 to clock the rpm of the generator. The face of the rpm gage having at a planned rpm above the desired generator rpm the electrical contacts A and B connected to the resistor coils C and D and to the battery cable below the engagement and dis¬ engagement coils of said cable whereto have a continuous source of electrical power to energize the coils. The hand of the rpm gage have a conductive material attached to it and is electri¬ cally connected to the battery cable. At a planned rpm the hand of the rpm gage 52 engage contact A energizing coil C connecting the resistor circuit. At a further increase in rpm, the hand engage contact B energizing coil D opening the none resistor circuit routing the power through the resistor whereto decrease the speed of the powering motor. When the speed of the generator decrease below the desired rpm the reverse events take place, the

J battery power is routed through the none resistor circuit per¬ mitting the motor's speed to increase thus preventing errative swings in the generator's voltage.
