Description: DESCRIPTION A METHOD TO PRODUCE ENERGY BY RISING AN AMOUNT OF WATER BY USING THE WEIGHT OF THE AIR AND CURRENTS IN THE AIR, AND THEN DROPPING THE SAME The present invention relates conversion of hydraulic energy in the water into mechanical energy, with respect to the possibilities, by means of a turbine wherein the water on the base level is raised by the assistance of the atmospheric pressure and the winds, using pipelines having a special construction, in which the water level is increased and . by the assistance special means the flow in the pipeline is made continuous and then, by repeating this movement step- by step the water is- brought to the topmost point from where the water is dropped to the base level. The most primitive design of the present invention is being used. In the rural area, there are wells with hand-driven suction pumps. A pipe sank in the water, a suction pump mounted 8 - 9 meters above the water level, and a flow pipe connected to the outlet of the said pump. The pipe reaches to the upper part of the well and the water comes out of this pipe. A lever- equipped standing on the upper part of the well drives the piston. The water level rises to the point where the pump stands by means of the atmospheric pressure. The piston moving up creates a cavity in which there is no air, so that water strongly moves into this cavity. The weight of the water standing in the pipe over the piston reaching outside of the well is a handicap. Trying to overcome this handicap causes excess" energy loss. By means of the lever mechanism, it becomes possible to produce the flow with the application of a relatively little amount of force. However, provided that there is a water tank next to the pump and the water accumulated on the top of the piston is sent into this tank, and < 5 another pumping system placed into the said tank reaches to outside of the tank, the atmospheric pressure would have been benefited from twice. In addition, there would have been much less load on the lever mechanism. If the power obtained from the wind is 30 used instead of human power, then the water is extracted outside of the well by merely the force obtained from the nature. ■ +■ Similarly, we designed a mechanism in which, the water is raised to a point which is high, and this has 1 - / become a continuous flow; from this pick point, according to the said design, the water is left to fall to the ground and meantime, this fall produces energy. The water used reenters into the system and is reused over and over for and indefinite time.

If the water flowing upstairs is collected in a 20 tank standing at the same altitude and using a similar method if we send the water into a second tank which is 10 meters above of the first tank, and if we repeat the same as many times as necessary, we obtain an upwards flow. 5 Here, we mentioned of a pump and naturally, of the power of an engine. However, by using certain applications and benefiting from natural forces, the need for an engine force may be reduced as much as to zero. The description relates this point. Figure 1: The sets (I) situated upwards, once in every seven meters, between the shaded lateral walls, impermeable independent pools (L) containing 120 cm water each. Elevation pipes (J) carrying water from the lower pool (L) to the upper pool and the main shaft (W) coordinating the energy interaction of the system is seen. The elevation pipe (J) consists of two parts. The part (A) 1 meter of whose end is inside the water and which carries the water to the upper pool (L) , and the part (E) through which, in the 9.50 - 10.00 meters from the water level the water is passed to the next stage. Both parts are covered from the above. There are two taps (Y-Z) on the upper part of A. Part E narrows in the lower part and ends up with a circular iron pipe. The length of the pipe 30 cm. There sits a temporary lit (G) at the outlet. The iron pipe serves as a bearing to a propeller (D) . The propeller is driven by a shaft (C) and the shaft is driven by the gear (S) which is connected to the shaft and sits at the upper part of part E. There is a lit (B) between the parts E and A. This lit prevents the excess pressure during the activation of the propeller (D) of influencing part A. The ratio between cross sectional are between the part A and the propeller D is 1/10. Part A is ten fold bigger from the other. The reason for this is that the speed of the water rising in the part A loses it speed ten fold. As a result, the flow rate of the both parts (A-E) is equated. On the description above, we mentioned that in order to have the water inside the pipe risen, the air inside the pipe should be taken outside. Since in practice there are drawbacks applied otherwise, we preferred using water to take the air out. For this purpose, we close the lower end of the part A of the elevation pipe by a lit (M) and the lower end of the part E again, by another lit (G) . Through one of the taps, we fill the pipes with water (Y) . During this filling with water, the air inside the pipe is discharged via the tap (Z) . When water comes from the tap Z, both taps are closed. Thus, the elevation pipes (J) are ready to function. The action in the propellers (D) which pump the water outside, is provided by the main shaft (W) . The main shaft lies from the bottom to the top and in the bottom, is connected to a powerful engine via a redictor gear which reduces the rate of rotation to 1 revolution / second. In this region, the action due to the wheel (P) which catches the excess energy from the turbine is connected to the same redictor gear. As the main (W) shaft passes each set (I), two driven gears (K) (T) are connected to the same. In the top point of the main shaft, again by means of the reductor, is connected to the windmills (2) . The main shaft has an aspect which makes it special. Providing an energy flow from the K driven gears to the propellers (D) to enable them to rotate, and to take the mechanical energy obtained from the water discharged from the region E back into the system. In order to achieve the said purpose, the wheels (F-F') are used. The conical geβr (H) , which is an extension of the shaft of the wheel, rotates the driven gear (T) to which it is connected. And thus, it transfers energy to the main shaft. Above, we talked about that the elevation pipes have become ready for action. The energy from the engine is present since it comes from the windmill (2) . We manage to have the main shaft rotating with the rate of 1 rotation per minute. Of course, the propellers (D) will start rotating due to this action. When the pressure per square centimeter as the water in region E is pumped outwards reaches to a certain preferred level, which is higher than the level of the air pressure outside the pipe, temporary lids (G-M) , which are connected to an automatic system, are separated from where they are fixed to. The propellers (D) are drawing the water above them downwards and are discharging. The wheels (F-F') right under the discharged water are activated and they start transferring energy to the main shaft. By the start of the flow of the water in the system in stages and meantime upwards, we achieve our objective. The water in the top Set pool (I) flow to the ground via the fall pipe (13) . The turbine (17) at the bottom (14) converts the hydraulic energy into the mechanical energy and opens to be used. In Figure 2, in order to take the advantage of the room in the final set, (F) the wheel is designed to be bigger . While system is active, the wheels (F-F'-P) deliver the production to the main shaft (W) . The most effective energy input is provided from the engine and the windmills (2) . In case that the wind flows are less the necessary, storage application is put under use. The diameter of the mill is Six meters, as shown in Figure 4. In case of full activation, the amount of energy it will produce is going to be much higher than what is needed. Therefore, it is necessary to store this energy as well as the energy supplied by the secondary mills. The first method for storage is the electrical storage. Secondly, high pressure air storage and the use of air engine must be added to the system. In addition, the pendulum system will be used when necessary. This system is used since ancient ages. It also perfectly fits to our embodiment. Because in the upper part, there are tons of water ready to fall. A stβering wheel - gear on the top of the construction. A multiple wire in the same length as the height of the building. Two tanks connected to the two ends of the wires. When one of the tanks is raised to the top, the other is just at the bottom. The tank at the top is filled with the water raised. As gets heavier, the tank rotates the steering wheel. This transfer an action to the main wheel. Naturally, as the tank which gets heavier reaches to the bottom, the other tank goes to the top. The tank which goes to the bottom opens a discharge lid with its own weight and the water is transferred to the main storage (15) . In this description, the flow rate assumed in the top elevation pipe is 2 tons per second. The amount of the water allocated in the tank is H Tons per second. Thus, for 4 or 5 seconds, the amount of water sent (13) to the fall pipe will be around 1.5 tons per second. The energy interruption while the tanks are on and off is completed from the windmills and the engine at the bottom. Although the lack of 2.5 tons water in the fall pipe for five seconds will cause loss in the turbine, the energy gained in the pendulum is -much higher than the loss and therefore this embodiment is preferred. Actually, the engine which activates the main shaft (W) connects to the turbine after it starts functioning. In this case, the system carries its function independently from the outside and receives 5 the energy needed from the power gained from the nature, and from the system within the embodiment. The above description is of a single pipe system. Naturally, multi-pipe systems are also possible. We gave the view of a multi-pipe system in Figure 4. The 10 elevation pipes (J) are located 90° to the surface of the water elevated, and therefore, the view resembles to that of a tower. In order to improve the view and to make it preferable, we made some additions: a rotating restaurant (3), a parkset (6), a place for parachute i c jumping (7), a room for radio - TV (4) social rooms (11 - 12) . Such a construction will perfectly satisfy the needs of big accommodation areas. It also contributes to a fashionable appearance of the surrounding. The same system can also be applied to the industrial 0 plants of any size. This way, the plant can produce all its energy need - namely electricity and heat. The work loss due to electricity interruptions is thus resolved.
