Description

AN EPICYCLIC TRANSMISSION

PCT Request with the following description, including attached Drawings and Request and Claims A_ftkached will follow by Fax.

By modifying existing manufactured Skylights of any make to combine with the other components for this Invention.

US Patent 4845905 July 11 1989 refers to "Skylight Latch" for pressure release - is one example.

Ano.ther is the "Extech" US - brand ^Venting Skylights* for internal pressure releasing.

Australian manufactured types will be used preferably instead, such as converting the "Acof" type brand to allow the pressure to be released during a Cyclone - So as to stop the roof blowing off as from the internal pressure as has been previously described by the Queensland Cyclone Testing station..

These have been manufactured for 18 years, but reduced their country coverage I understand. (Due to rising installation labour costs I was advised.)

I am sure they will be very keen - especially as they don't have to send their own installers out of State as now. As we expect to have Franchise owners in each area.

We will ask them (and all others) to strengthen their roof releasing operation, and/or have better means for the structure releasing too far - as this sort of pressure is not expected norrnaily. (With the huge pressures they w»J) have now - in order not to blow off as they would now.)

With the present Skylights which can be adjustable optionally.

My Raymond Dale had a Patent Search made recently for his Invention which required the ^κϋ" Bolts (Or similar) to hold the Pipes. These being bolted into the roofing structure as a very secure means of Cyclone Protection. The Search Ray had done - brought out several Patents which he has been advised are not conflicting with his.

(According to the Patent attorneys report who did the Search.) He called his "PALESECURE"

Ray and I have 50% share in it as he saw I was patenting roof Sourciπg Free Energy, and my own past Patent successes.

I have been able to bring in some simple options to advance his, as his is well expired - from when the Patent Attorney could have written one.

(Such as WOT RISK leaks occurring by making the roofing piping "Self Supporting" optionally as well.)

Avoiding drilling holes Into or through the roofs. (Or in what ever way they would need to be bolted through the tiles/Roofing iron or similar).

This together with optional removable coupling to the ground, (with either permanent or removable Fixtures).

(Such as including - US Patent 2002/0166289 - US Patent 2006/0150529. - US Utility Patent

6088975 - US Utility

Patent 5791090 - US Patent 5,881,499 below - US design Patent Des 419699.)

Further having easier Construction (which would save big costs) - (As being "Self Supporting" but able to be coupled to the ground in any method as - described and as following.

(Such as with the (Steel Wire Ropes) or cables or any other ways of connecting the house roofing structure and additions to the ground.

I have attached examples of Piping and simulation on the roof with the Wire ropes through the .

Pipes coupled to the ground (Concrete or Steel spike or screw - foundation fixture - see attached Simulation).

Providing Cyclone Proofing in a safer - simpler way, without the need to break through the roof.

Further is the ability to add other "Exhaust for Pressure" means/vents in the roof - so as to allow for the huge pressure which can lift off a roof. They can allow for bolting through the roof as well (or mav be potted through the roof where chosen. (Including Skylights and /or exhaust systems or simllari

Both Private Housing and Commercial structures are made very safe from fierce winds, cyclones and the like. Particularly for houses built in windy areas.

Following is a report from Towπsville's Cyclone Testing Station www.abc.net.au/news/australla/gld/townsyllle/200407/sll49912.html "Storm Expert urges people to Cyclone proof homes."

Mr. — — from — Cyclone Testing Station.

Other enquiries advise some properties have steel strapping being added outside.

Being connected to any remaining parts left from any possible Internal or encased Steel or

Timber framing -

Designed to hold the house down when it was built (If found remaining).

This would have the owners under a false sense of security, thereby disastrous as Human life Is at oreat risk world Wide.

1 Enquiries from Engineers in other States state - most of the original

Steel components etc. which form the holding down to solid earth have rusted away in houses.

2 It has at least five major parts, which mav be used alone or added separately.

3 These are able to be Secured to any existing Steel or Timber Plates, rods or built in reinforcing etc.

Which are already permanently fixed or bolted to the ground (Such as coupled to existing or new Concrete or Foundations)

4 In one preferred method, a permanent "Self Supporting" fixture would be on the roof, which may be structured in any way.

5 Or these new fixture/s can be connected through the roof to the existing plates or rafters optionally.

6 "Pressure vents" can be designed to allow passage of Steel or similar material to couple to these. Using for example cables or wire rope connected to any existing steel rods or straps which are commonly found bolting through to the ground already - in windy places. In another method, a plurity of roof mounted U- shaped bolts / brackets tor holding siidable pipe members and an integral tightening Device. In which a chain is anchored to couple and correspond to underground Concrete blocks and steel tie - down eyelets. In a further method the U bolts are not required, with only the pipes in place, which can contain the Wire ropes.. In another option, intermediate pipes are coupled between the pipes at or below the bend at the apex of the roof. "Cross" piping and/or *T"s may be incorporated to keep the pipes correctly spaced, as well as stopping sideways movement. Piping can be used alone without wire rope or cable. Being either horizontal, vertical or diagonal, totally self supporting or not. Optionally permanently fixed to the rafters using *U Bolt" design - for example. Wire /ropes Cables can be passed through these ""Pipes" to stop the wire Ropes from damaging roofing material. Cushioning material such as rubber - Polyurethane or Polypropγlenes etc. can be moulded to suit the pattern of existing Tiles or to Iron roofs to match the design and colour. In the preferable method, the piping is passed over the house so that any method can hold it in place (These pipes could be Galvanised Steel Water Pipe, ALUMINIUM, or High Pressure Plastic Water piping for example). In another method, another fixture could be between the pipes on the roof and can be shaped to fold under with hook shape so as to support the pipes on the roof from under the eaves ^Λθverhang/eave\ These can be bolted through in any method - to plates underneath the "over- hang" Alternatively the couplings may be fixed at or below ground level, which may optionally couple to the foundation pillars. A very fast disconnecting and re-coupling fixture may be between the two, OR permanently coupled. There is another option of placing flat sheeting under the pipes (between or on top of the pipes. (Which can be moulded into in any way )~ This would provide extreme strength to the Iron or Tile roofing, Which may be designed for a low cost replacement for the roof as well. Holding the Tiles and Iron roofing down - for example by Bolting the Pipes to the internal fixtures In the house in any method. (Or down to Fixtures at ground Level - which may be replaceable or permanent Human life is at great risk world Wide, due to a false sense of security on existing supposed structure OR being rusted or deteriorated. ( Although this should be covered in the above wording )_r we are stating here foat we expect to use existing Skylights to release the enormous pressure. As they are going to get enormous sajes, (in most cases) they should be happy to ςomply with what the University has laid out to upgrade them to cope with the releasing - yet to return down to cover the roof hole immediately. As well as this they will be an added cost saving feature, which allows the light to he available without Power - even when the storms have cut off power for example. Mounts on the apex of the roof of any design may be used -made from metal and Rubber for example, to couple to the pipes at the top. Or steel wire rope around the house without the Pipes, optionally right around under the house, allowing safer joining for security as well. These houses may or may not be built with Air Vents WITH -HORIZONTALLY ROTATING vertical suction pipe. . - With *Venturi" action. Which changes direction with the wind change direction for highest suction.

25 This Cyclone Proofing Invention was ready for these added needs. Providing security, strength etc. as follows = It witl be seen that there are many Past Prior Art Patents - such as

"Pressure Vent Hurricane Shutter US 6996934 8-25-2OO3 and "Blow out Prevention -ⁿ US 6243999 06-12-2001

26 This present security is able to be universally added, to suit ANY House - by added supports on ANY or ALL sides of the house and roof- Which can be used temporarily or permanently, without the added Fixtures to the Ground. (Depending on any extreme Cyclone/Hurricane requirements.

Further, see attached (Windmills as well) Cars can have the Wheel Spin Control (as mentioned having a new PCT Application Applied as well) . Suitable mounts on the apex of the roof can be of any design, made from metal pipe where needed to enclose the steel wire rope. So as to couple the Venturi Vent pipe or vpnt base plate to the pipes at the top by bolting for example;. Steel pipe would be better if welding Is chosen to secure the "Venturi" suction pipe.

Or any type of pipe if bolting fs chosen, (or securing it to a normal supporting plate,) Aluminium piping instead MAY better suit manv modern Aluminium roofing materials, BUT IT IS MORE APT to Corrosion through Electrolyses' with Iron roofs. It is also is compatible with aluminium plates runnin^g horizontally (if chosen, as shown, but any type of Material can be used for, Spacing and optionally bolted to both ends of the house from folding over the roof (As shown in drawing) See Attached Drawing) to integrate with the "Voltaic Cell panels" allowing an "AIr Gap" for cooling under them. Optionally new High Efficiency developed "Voltaic Cells" can be 10 times the efficiency - and can be rolled onto roofs in much more f Flexible materials - together with this new Security Needed due to the value they are to everyone. An alternative option is Plastic Piping (of various heavy grades.)

Provisional -

73 Advancing water pumping has been included in another Application recently (see above).

Needed everywhere especially in third world countries with Hand operated/Held Pumps. -

74 Where some Charities have to pay $2,500 us cost to them for each Water Well(with a hand operated pump_r for example — in INDIA)-

75 I have located an Invention which forces water out of bores, or wells by AIR pressure using a very cheap plastic pumping system which can even pump sand,

76 (Which has been tested by a University) = a few hundred are operating around the world already. By a man who has wanted to keep it manufactured for the few hundred dollars by his small staff, so that it is not made too expensive for the buyers in poorer countries, (he said he is not interested in Millions of $ dollars)

77 At present IT DOESNT need anv MAINS electric power at all - if a "Voltaic cell" panel is used_r (or a Windmill - - or a small petrol motor/pump.)

78 Unfortunately the Voltaic panels are a huge cost about $2500 as well - and the "above ground" parts would too easy to steal (if the well is ANYWHERE remote).

79 I have told him my invention will probably have a. much more efficient pump -(which I have been advancing in some other prototype designs.

80 Several types of PUMPS are described in my Provisional applied (which Should be able to improve hand operated pumps for the World

84 ^' Even better is optionally available (in time) - With the new Pump Patent Application, (than the OLD inventions described) Further by using the latest designs.

85 An example is the unique design similar to as applied.

I am expecting to provide 65 to 85 PSI (4-5 Bar) As needed for this Water pump. -.

86 I can design the compression needed by providing whatever speed is to achieve this with my gear. (For the Air pressure needed.)

87 (With the main aim of having it manually operated, instead)- where there is risk of theft (avoiding any costly Motorising.)

89 My PAGE 1 ("planetary") invention was written by a Professor Friend's own Patent writer in 1994/5).

90 It was first applied for me in 1995 by a Patent Attorney, with the same first Page as in most of my Patents since, down to Line 27/30 now.

91 The next relevant drawings to Fig 1 and Fig 2 were Fig 3. Fig 4 - Fig 5 -6-7 - 9 Fig 11 "Double Ring gear' - etc starting with about

So this one Is needed CAPTURING FREE energy from the largest possible number of Solar Cells on the roof able to be secured being in great need for running Hybrid Cars worldwide. (OR ELECTRIC OFFCOURSE) -

97 Now with strengthened security and support for different angles upwards, plus air gap space for cooling under it (or any part/cable on the roof under It.)

98 To further Improve the present methods against theft of just relying on, as follows.

99 The present way to stop* theft being used, is special shaped bolt heads and matching soanners.(the only protection against Theft.

100 As the HUGE value of these Cells becomes known, these is a μtflH PT^^ being almost priceless Because they are free energy generators.

101 They presently have to be bolted through the roof iron orby lifting and grinding slots In the tile, which allows them to be secured to the roof timber structure Inside.

102 However, due to the high value of FREE Energy, the temptation would be to dp what Thieves do to Car Security Wheel Nuts -

103 (Or if a spanner hasn't been left with a service mechanic, it only takes one second to get them off.)

104 Therefore there is ESSENTTA L EXTRA HgAVY SECURITY

105 NEEDED WITH STEEL-Pines preferably. Wire ropes as well if chosen, laced through the Panel Anyhow. , . They may be holding the Tiles or Iron roof down as well.

106 Could be bolted to a fixed point to the most difficult part of the house to get to.

107 But wire ropes have caused roof damage (as mentioned b^y the Engineers at the Cyclone Testing Station -fas in some existing Patents)

108 Therefore a especially designed Pipe welded to a chosen part. Which can be chosen so that the Electrolysis Is dealt with in with the right matching material. This is as is specified people like the Steel Blue Scope Steel In their publications for Dissimilar Metals -

109 (Like the Venturi Roof Vent on the highest point, (which inlet pipe has to go through the roof anyway.

And/Or Wire Rope put right around under the house could be an

Added safe way.

We have Pipes In any needed part of the house or roof

(ADVANCE 21) A man named Lee Shier is selling bases for Windmill Towers to fold down" - which will allow for servicing, (or if Cyclones are threatening) - selling for $600 he said - on "The New Inventors" ABC TV programme, 19^th 03 08 (ADVANCE 22) This present Invention allows this other FREE energy source, returned to the grid. The Super efficient dual blade described herewith OR with quieter Windmill designs below. Such as "Vertical axis" windmills - with optional "Venturi" self aligning Windmill supports -(see below)

(ADVANCE 23) - Rotating horizontally - (automatically kept pointing into the wind direction, - (which also accelerates the winα speed at the same time).

(ADVANCE 24) These can be on the roof, or on the land beside. (ADVANCE 25) During a Cyclone/hurricane, alternative means are needed as well - for the air pressure to be released from the house, (ADVANCE 26) can have added vents rotating directional components as high up as possible.

So as to suck the wind from the house below (which horizontally rotating enclosures would be shaped with a taper providing a "veπturl" of any size -pointing The whole Windmill into the wind direction as well. (ADVANCE 27) Another sucking device with similar "Venturi" Directional rotating Vacuum suction from Inside the house can be mounted as high up as possible, (to have the wind create the suction.),

(ADVANCE 28) Special suction vents can further be placed in windows, doors or anywhere , (as they are only needed for a Cyclone/Hurricane Storm - when they will only need to *suck inwards" when there Is a HUGE suction. -

Placed on the leeward side of the house/buildings required (can be anywhere around the house with more than one if chosen, as they will dose outward automatically, such as by springs - (Or Gravity - if mounted horizontally) -. (ADVANCE 2g) Caused by the HUGE pressure of the Cyclone/hurricane wind pressure - Being forced out of the room by suction, released easily now from this exhausting system of any type, as described herein..

(ADVANCE 30) For example, a lightweight ball, can be sucked Inwards Inside a tube, (and will spring back out again like an automatic valve immediately) -.Which will only need a spring, to keep such as cats/rats out (for example).

Flat panel types may be used, of any shape as well or instead of, made from any type of material, automatic, or manually operated/released.

(ADVANCE 31) Which will be designed to open at the same time, acting ike another ball valve as needed. (Such as in the ceiling as well, to pass the air) - out.

Automatically, or manually opened In hot weather- for exhausting HOT AIR From below in the Summer.. (ADVANCE 32) There are patents which have various methods to control this Negative Pressure during Cyclones,

Instead of the Positive pressure windows normally have on them. In Patent US 5927028) Similarly being forced inwards, but are a very costly as whole walls are involved, (as explained in this Patent.) In Cyclone areas the need for skylights to at least comply with AS4285 Aust. Standard is another security feature. As described previously and the main wind loading standard for Australia and NZ is AS1170.2. 8 -9 -3

ADVANCE 33)There is already the added free day-light available through the optional Skylights as described previously (with optional room cooling - ) (ADVANCE 34) If chosen, Skylights will have the ability to lift up on the roof, (as some do now 8 inches or 200 mm for ventilation),

(ADVANCE 35) - BUT now the Manufacturers will have to fit suitable modifications, (as described herein) to lift much higher to expels the pressure, and will return down again immediately to close the weather out, after the Storm /Cyclone,

(ADVANCE36) Having the new designed capability of "bursting open right up",.

(ADVANCE 37) Caused by the pressure inside, combined with suction upward), during a Cyclone/Hurricane (which Is trying to pull the roof off.)

Materials used and designed able to withstand this opening as Is required by Government Standards as well.

(ADVANCE 38)They will then close immediately. These new Skylights will be able to open completely and used instead of the air vents, if chosen - or as well as the Air vents - with or without the directional "Venturi" type exhausting on the highest point of the roof possible,. It is expected that similar springing can be used for most, as patented herewith, similar to the Skylights as follows, (or designs totally optional to achieve this) (ADVANCE 39) For example tension springs restricting the upwards action and/or tension springing with others fixed structure - to spring back, (ADVANCE 40) Able to be controlled from below (optionally) to pull the Skylight back down if required, with suitable springs positioned in any way to suit. (ADVANCE 41) With fully Automatic and/or Manual operation.

Torsion springs could assist at pivot points (for example) -With Motorlsed operation at any chosen place if required offcourse.. These will have manual override abilities where ever possible. (ADVANCE 42) The Skylight can have metal braces pivoting points at a top (For example) of the raised window structure (If rectangular or square,)

To have shafts, strengthening timber in the roof timber structure, to support strong leverage and locking down the Skylight.

(ADVANCE 43) When bringing the Windows down again, this can be totally enclosed in the ceiling and Automatic, and/or manually operated.. (ADVANCE 44) Or If circular, - the centre of the skylight will be strengthened to pull them down strongly_/ either straight up and down or on . any angle, -(for example) Or can be combined with optional dampening of any type, in compression chambers, or of hydraulic "hood lifters" such as to stop the shock as well as to assist with the lifting action.

(ADVANCE 45) This skylight can be opened right up now Instead of the small 200 mm opening (8 Inches) commonly supplied with typical "Chain" winder operations (Or any similar older designs).. (ADVANCE 46 ) Any type of rubber type cushioning can he used, as well, with Fittings on the roof apex, "These Inventive designs are to stop as they would now.^with the metal mountings cut Into securing them to the roof.) These, or any single impellor/propeller input may have ducting to assist which could be directly coupled to the generator, or on another axis, or input in any chosen way. (DESCRIBED herewith) Alternatively, more than one Generator can even be coupled directly = (ADVANCE 71) = or Indirectly coupled.

(ADVANCE 72) The PCT/AUOQ3/001536 Transmission (eMdeaπ Gear), here provides more variability therefore higher efficiency and added torque multiplying (See IAME attached) (ADVANCE74) Being more variable and highly efficient for windmill transmissions from' the (eM Dean Gear) World wide Patent which suits precision design Windmills) < APVAMCE 731 The above Patent wlH further make the "Duty Cvcle" much longer - with much more variability _f as well from any single input rotation source. (ADVANCE 751 Providing Internal or external hydraulic accumulation (Gas or Liquid) - for later returning stored energy to the input (ADVANCE 76).. Early demonstrations of multiple bladed windmills have also been tested on the ROLLER Planetary GEAR ADVANCE by Malcolm Dean. (ADVANCE 77) In another option, described above, with the same Pitch on both, infinitely variable Operation tiir*» *M H I FV SYSTEM": type variability Is obtained - but only needing ONE AXIg

By not contra rotating after the Initial contra rotating start. Providing high torque to start - overcoming starting friction, and are infinitely variable from input RPM to output RPM. With the output rotation speed being an additive percentage of the two inputs rotation speeds, (rotating faster than either).. (ADVANCE 7S) On others Windmills they can be optionally contra rotating continuously, instead.

With the same length of blades and opposite pitch. (ADVANCE 79 About 27D % more air pressure from fans has been measured in wind tunnel tests by General Electric, (But there were two Motors essential, not like this

Which has only one motor (If on a FAN. Further with built in reduction ratio for high torque allowing for bigger blades.

Not like the others which tested at common speed (due to the high cost of slow speed 8 pole AC motors.).

Therefore there is a multiple of savings = Cost - Weight - Space - plus

Twice as Many motors and control circuitry, plus about 4 times as much weight to support and protect.

Therefore it is expected this higher efficiency should apply to windmills when Contra rotating ..(ADVANCE 80) Power storage- such as in batteries mentioned above limited to 72 Volts Is recommended - so that handymen can change batteries -not, requiring registered Electricians. (As with the common Hybrid car at present.. The Inverters can step the low Voltages up and down for different car manufacturers..

THE USES FOR THIS MULTIPURPOSE PRODUCT ARE BNDI^SS 1'"UHhCImOTe₁ it has the potential to replace insay otter complex: devices, dw to the unique three dimensional operation providing balancing, feedback, vernier and heterodyning features. The sis can be micro to røaαro vftih tbe compmer prog!^m we have to simplify design.

1. FANS TJiis gear has the ability to reduce tt»β motor sσe to a ffissfe_ctof (tie esdstiag sizes ro some commensal situations, which as a result, requite much cheaper mechanical strucfcsre to -accommodate them SS ,wβSL the motoia also being about a quarter of the price. Wtih further buik in advantages aβ feSows.-

2. COKTRA-BjOT ATlOK lVfaay uses for this feature, bat for β-tas, brings with it the increase in efficiency of wtad pressure of about 230% just for the extra cost of the extra impeller.

3. COMPRESSORS It can provide a βo4oad sfetrt comlώktrf wilh ^ ccπtti^sl cliiteh working βt an extended range. Disadvantage - metre parts are needed, bur the wear would oxάy occur on start up and the clutch Would not get the wear of a conventional one, because of the gearing. NOTE new designs of compressors are described below.

5. STEERING WHEEL DRTVE for such U)iαg^ as AUTOPILOTS. It provides a one piece unit «ήtft built in over-ride and dutch if reφHrøl ASσwing the driving motor to be eaaSy mounted and cah afao <lo «way WiJh Bnkages, chain drives etc The advantage of being able to produce ft from mm αxτosivc material can be verp advantageous in agU air conditicms. RUDDER DRXVBS are also coavement to fit by uamg this gear A a pivot point

6. PUMP COMBINATION There are severe! ways which ftfe gear can provide displacement HI order to provide a pumping action, cither iπtenwlty, or as an integrally nwnufaotured pait The pump can also provide SPEED CX)NTROL for tiw output drive of this gear onfpot itself (as described furAβr m tKJis summary, wϊucii really only ctfvera some the usses thought of to date.)

7. LAWN MOWERS There are many alternative requirements for this product for such things as requiring just one motor witfe lias gear Co provide muttipb outputs, direcily on the end ofihe motor shaft—One output can drive the wheels at perhaps 40:1 ratio whilst Another one (or more) wϊB drive «SP blsde/s at 6:1 and afwSher ttt |κowle s reversing; action. Many oϊhcr dάw options an? svafoiήe such *s, two

operated speeds and dutch can be easily achieved. 8. WASHING MACHINE GEARBOXES Can be easily manufactured, of which I am informed by the manager of a company who claims to have manufactured 70% of Australian gearboxes in the past, (they ate now matte overseas.) This company now only has a small percentage of the marker, they are very anxious to get involved with this gear as their manufacturing system is very complementary and cost effective for this gear.

9. HIGHER TORQUE MOTOR abb to incorporate this gear to produce extremery efficient drive systems. The motor could utilise new iypes of magnets such as "tare earth" type which could be an integral part of the gear 80 mat a maximum relative circumference providing maximum torque is available to optimise the drive and also may incorporate speed control by magnetic, mechanical and or electronic means.

10. UNIVERSAL EXTBJ6MELY COMPACT HIGH RATIO REDUCTION GEAR This is very cost effective as it merely requires a duplication of the internal components which effectively are multiples of the chosen ratios. There is also the ability to provide multiple output and inputs where required as weO, for such things as heterodyning.

11. LIFTS. Common cheap AC motors can be used utilising extremely low current controllers to smoothly supply optimum power to this gear, avoiding the high cost of modem solid state speed controls, in which all the current to control the motor has to be handled by expensive specialised equipment. The alternative older systems for lifts required D.C motors to be supplied by auxiliary, 'costly to install, maintain and run equipment,' which are themselves being upgraded to these coaύy new systems, (which are also rapidly becoming obsolete as changes are planned and made.)

12. AUTOMOTIVE Automatic transmission could use this gear and by Ktmpty extending the range of a centrifugal clutch or by the use of magnetic control (electronically or mechanically controlled )whictt would provide extremely low cost drives. The use of ft torque feedback in our system is simpler than the recent French patent, and is also more feasible than the toothed epi-cyde type in their patent because we would not have to have a double reduction with this compact gear design.

13. HELICOPTER Extremely compact lightweight propeller drives, plus the great advantages of contta-rotation could not only provide more efficiency but the added advantage of being able to control direction without the need for the present tail propeDor. This could drive a simple one-man machine or highly maneuverablc and powerful craft.

14. DRILLING MACHINES Load sensing could allow for releasing or freeing operations. The ability to push other materials up or down is also unique, perhaps whilst drilling is in action. The ability to contra-rotate and provide a balancing and or torque doubling, could be employed in perhaps delicate operations such as human body bone operations.

15. SPACE TECHNOLOGY Could have light weight gears for almost any thing such as balancing or feed back sensing of lifting lids, or actions in space which usually need gravitational references. Extremely versatile maneuvering mobiles and robotics are possible, including climbing And walking. 16. MEDICAL Implantable orthopedic prosthesis could incorporate miniaturized variable speed gears, ie. for skeletal movement in joint replacement. Materials could be inert tantalum, and together with a sealed gear would enable efficient performance. Reactive touch sensitivity could also be included.

17. MARINE There are several advantages with this gear over existtog drives, the gear can provide a gear reduction at the tail shaft of the motor together with an optional clutch, or a reverse gear. A second gear can provide a reduction and a contra-rotating action on the propellers providing an expected 2.3 times the efficiency, combined with the ability to reduce the speed of the propeUer/s which also allow for a more efficient propeller size. The option of using non-corrosive materials, as wtitt as possibly under-water use t$ also a great advantage.

18. INDUSTRIAL. Variable speed or fixed speed gearing, conveyor belts with ease of ratio changes, through to complex machinery, lifting or measuring equipment can be simply made with optional vernier type control for accurate operations with say, two inputs drives/motors, or load sensing can be provided.

19. CRANES Automatic load shifting by sensing the load with the inbuilt feedback provided, in order to keep the crane at the optimum point of balance.

20. ROBOTICS The Unique, feedback can provide touch sensitive control for robotics. This can also allow for the equalising and balancing of loads, as an example animation* can be made to climb stairs.

21. AGRICULTURE Many farm machines require simple low cost gearing and there could be numerous uses for a range of sizes available to the farmer to say, wind-in fences, Uft gates, UIt machinery. The spraying of crops could have a very efficient system which would atomise the spray by say, ejecting it out between contra-rotating fan blades providing a very wide coverage.

22. MOTORISED WHEEL This unit has a demonstrable torque multiplying ability which has been partly used by the planetary or epicycle type motor wheel drives such as Eaton drives, and similarly to automatic bansroissions in cars providing a greater acceleration than manually controlled gears. Because of the revolutionary compact and low cost nature of our design, one aim is now to exploit every variation of the powered motor wheel possible.

23. UFTING UDS, OPENING GATES The difficulty experienced in the post has been the need to provide enormous power at the pivoting points to accompBsh this, resulting in clumsy and expensive devices Eke rams, these are intrusive and space taking, not to mention that people can walk into them on windows etc. This gear provides an alternative to these devices and is able to be driven directly without having dangerous chains etc Gates may be pivoted and using this drive, say, at the hinge centre, compact operation is provided. Another option for FARM GATES could be to lift them at the end similar to a railway crossing, if this is operated by remote control, a farmer could see the opening gate from a distance. Such remote operations are abb to be powered by hattety ami solar energy charging, allowing for low installation cost and maintenance free use for many years.

24. BED UFTERS for hospital and home. TWs product makes it possible to provide removable bed lifting mechanisms which can be moved onto any existing bed. The only bed lifter available is butt into the bed at present because of the tage normal mechanics required as with the gate openers above. The cost of these beds arc a minimum of about $2500.

The Paraplegic Society Heed my demonstration of the bed lifters which I demonstrated to some of their top people recently, they arc waiting for some to test and also advised me to demonstrate it to the larger marketing organisations because they could see a great need fin- it. Oite of the tnain advantages is to protect nuirø tacjtø

25. TRAIN DRIVE Great advantages including flywheel effect described in information contained on page 6 of Document 1 (Variable Speed Gear).

26. POWER TOOLS The required dri*e can be directly mounted on the motor shaft making it easy to support without other gearing necessary because of the. products simple principal. A clutch may be manually operated such as a squeezing action or automatically provided. This clutch may provide a combination of over-load protection and speed or sensitivity control coupled to maximum torque,

27. DENTALyMEX)ICAL TOOLS As above and can provide compact or miniaturisation combined with a touch sensitive feedback to control torque.

29. STAIR CLIMBING This has prøvpd very difficult in the past for animation, but by using feedback of the legs to balance and lift the body evenly the two relative legs (as an example ) could provide balance.

30. DIFFERENTIAL The wheels on the road work like die feedback to each other and thereby can keep the wheel speed to a chosen relative RPM.

31. MICRO-MACRO Because of our computer program and design it would be easy to make in micro-sizes • the design makes powerful smaller drives, die larger the size, the more cost effective this product can be.

32. RATIOS Thb gear has the ability to change or add more ratios and outputs using different inserts.

33. RESCUE WINCHES could lift Ae load according to the weight

34. SKYSCRAPER ESCAPE SYSTEMS could automatically clutch or slow the descent as the weight increases. 35. AUTOWINDOW WRJDERJS could do away wϊtb the old toothed seπri-cfcck winders.

36. FROPEtJLER pitch can be controlled by the feedback to get ttuutinnαn thrust

37. WINDMQXS can start to turn sooner if the rotor blade/s ate at a greater pitch, to start or alternatively contra-rotating blades. The front bJade can be used to simply start the momentum of the rear before there is enough wind speed to start ihe load as the wind increases, the rear blade slows down and instantly there would be torque supplied to load.

38. BICYCLES The torque doubling feature could be used to provide two spβΛfe or cnher mechanical torque advantages.

39. EXERCISING GYM EQUlPMEKT - Could give auto equalising to aππ reactor* or kg or body balancing, could also provide towing smuriators with accelerated water splash baths. Weights could be reduced substantially.

FtEtD OF INVENTION

TIiIS INVENTION folates io an improved, user-defined fixed raiio. transmission system with multiply configurable inputs and outputs.

BACKGROIfND OF THE ΓNVENTΓQN

The transmission of mechanical power from an energy source (usually an eogjnc) to drive a mechanical apparatus is well known to be able to be achieved in many ways. There exist many common applications of this, such as fans, motor vehicles and windmills.

Recently, hcwfcvcr. there has been the need to transmit mechanical power from more than two energy sources to a siπgle (mechanical) output. Applications of this include such innovations as Toyota's hybrid peUroϊΛrfectnc ear-

None of these rccou innovations, however has been ahlfr to solvϋ. the perplexing problem of dynamically configuring the inputs and outputs (LO) of the system. This ability, thai is of dyWmic V^Q coαfiguralioπ is required heforc many real applications, such as hybrid iransrnissioM systems, can prod U c« rod and useful results. ιS_?steβS arc mόustesi £a a vtødiss eyimfcsa-- tea IiTt^; wSi^h.* Qt SUCH -yt-ifcs is 5 togs,_* lifting tttei^t psϊ" xss±t ot the vei£ht ot equip-tgϋt is 165 &s/^* 5OJS lesta than that of'tfee wfcsishfe at βqμi.ptaont» stod caa Tie as&trftwstar«a as tiiostf ?#i£«iios £or v«jrio'-i9 v^iafet- lif tiac.

Claims

Claim 1.
