Title: Gravitational electrical generation
Inventor: COLE JEFF
IPC: F03B17/04
Filed: 2005-10-24
Abstract: This invention is an improved system for generating electricity by harnessing natural gravitational forces. A plurality of vessels are placed at the bottom of a deep enclosed chamber of liquid, the vessels being secured around tracking cables which extend within the chamber, and are held in place with guards. Each vessel also has a retention system that is spun around a crankshaft in a mounted spool, the crankshaft being connected to a transmission, which is in turn connected to a generator.  The vessels are pumped with pressurized air, through bottom valves, the guards are released, and the vessels rush to the surface of the chamber along the tracking cables. When the vessels are released the collective force of their release rotates the crankshaft to generate electricity. An upper valve on the vessels is engaged to release the air at the top of the chamber, and are returned, by the force of a spring coil on the crankshaft, to the starting position in the bottom of the chamber to continue electrical generation.
