SPECIFICATION
A New or Improved Motor.
I ALEXANDER HIRSCHBERG Manufacturer of Luckenwalde in the Kingdom of
Prussia and German Empire do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in
what manner the same is to be performed to be particularly described and ascertained
n and by the following statement :-
bower.
The invention hereinafter described relates to a motor which is able to generate
For the production of force a pipe swinging on a centre is used which pipe
s partly filled with water and swings to either one side or the other The construction
of this self generating power motor is shown in the drawings horeto annexed
Figure 1 shows the motor in equilibrium with view of the horizontal pipe A in
section.
Funro home a front row in castion of the meaton with the
.
Figure 9 view of the same from below.
The pipe A rests on its centre of gravity by means of two axes on bearings B B
which are fastened to a horizontal plane P on both sides of which are the tables C
which move up and down.
The axes of the pipe A are arranged at its centre of gravity.
Underneath it a pendulum F is fixed which bears at N an adjustable weight. At
either end of the pipe A at an equal distance from the centre pivots are fixed to
which the supports Hare attached and from them hang on either side the cylinders D'D"
respectively.
The cylinders D¹ D¹¹ are arranged in the following manner
11
At
D' is a cylinder open at the top in which the cylinder D" is fitted airtighi
the same time D is provided with side bands L which with the projections L'
thereon catch in the slots M of the cylinder D' in such a manner that both cylinders
can only be drawn a certain distance from one another The pipe A 13 filled about
two thirds with water or other liquid and to facilitate the filling the pipe is provided
with a valve K through which also the float E can be introduced into the pipe A
The float E serves to produce a weight in the inclined pipe A on the raised side.
The cylinders D' D" on both sides of the motor are hollow and are advantageously
made of tin and have on their underside a weight in the form of a leaden ring
soldered on.
The two front sides of the pipe A are bound together watertight.
The motor is worked in the following manner
-
When the motor is set in motion the pipe A first inclines to the right so that the
liquid in its interior flows to that side the pipe A presses downwards sliding the
right hand cylinders D¹ D on to the table C (as shown at Figure 2) D¹ D" shut
themselves together and while shutting the upper cylinder D₁ presses the float G
in the cylinder D¹ under water while at the same time the pendulum F has left its
centre of gravity and with the ball N has swung out to the left (see Figure 2)
When the pipe A goes down on the right side the float E shoots down with and in
the same direction as the water and then having come to the surface of the water
again takes its place on the left side at the extreme edge of the liquid which has
passed over the middle of the pipe.
On the left side the cylinders D' D¹³ hang drawn from one another to their utmost
extent.

page_text: At this moment the cylinders D¹ D" on the left side of the pipe begin to operate
to draw the pipe downwards which is effected the more easily as the cylinders D¹ D"
on the left side have only to raise the cylinder D" on the right side to a certain
degree.
Further the cylinders D' D₁ are supported on the left side by the float G on the
right side which in the cylinders D¹ D" on the right side will ascend and also by
the pendulum F which seeks to return to its "centre of gravity The liquid in the
interior of the pipe A begins to set itself in motion towards the left on it the float E
slide towards the left side the cylinders D' D on the right side are drawn from one
another until they expand fully and the projections I on the side bands L catch in
the slots M of the cylinder Du
The cylinders D' D" on the left side place themselves on the left table C the liquid
descending to the left through the rocking of the
on the right side again hang
on the left side together while the cylinders D¹ DA presses the cylinders D₁ D"
free.
The float E in the pipe A has moved to the right and the pendulum F has swung
to the right In such manner the movement from one side to the other is repeated
and continued
The transmission of the motion of the swinging pipe A takes place by means of
cog wheels u u¹ in each of which is a pawl v which is jointed to the levers it w¹
These last shde on the pipe A and are alternately set in motion by its inclination in
one or the other direction
The movement of the two cog wheels u u' is communicated to a transmission shaft
by means of the cog wheels z which act on one another
The flow which is stopped by the descending of the mechanism on the one side as
for instance in Figure 2 and for the reason that a counterbalance is produced by the
cy hnders D D on that side of the pipe A which has ascended and has simply to
raise the empty cylinder cover D" on the right side therefore a lesser weight is to be
overcome than on that side which has ascended where the cylinders D¹ D" operate
together.
The balance of the operation is further maintained by the float E which always
floats outside the centre of gravity of the pipe A as soon as it inclines towards one
side The float operates so far also towards the balance of the operation that in the
same moment in which the cylinders D¹ D" are pressed downwards it goes upwards
towards the other side. Further by means of the weight N on the pendulum F the
balance of the operation is maintained The surplus force is by this motor given out
for mechanical purpose.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same 1s to be performed 1 declare that what I
c'aim is
A motor having the pipe A which has about two thirds of its interior filled with
liquid and swings on its centre with the cylinders D¹ I hanging on either side of
the said pipe A which are movable one in the other and may be drawn upwards or
may rest on the table (further by the float E in the interior of the pipe A and by
the float G in the interior of the cylinder D' which is closed at the top and by the
weight N fixed to the pendulum F so that at the inclining of the pipe A from the
centre of gravity the cylinders D¹ D" are pressed together on the one side whilst on
the other side they are drawn from one another during which the lighter part of the
pipe A is moved afresh by the float E the float G and the pendulum F substantially
as herein before described and illustrated in the drawings hereunto annexed.
