Patent ID: 7687943

Claim:
A system for capturing electricity comprised of: a wheel, said wheel being rotatable about an axis and comprise of: a rotatable hub, also rotatable about said axis; and a rotatable conducting rod within said rotatable hub, said rotatable conducting rod also rotatable about said axis; at least one electricity generating device positioned in said wheel, said at least one electricity generating device comprised of: a generally hollow housing, said housing having a first end and a second end; a wire coil fixed within said housing, said wire coil having an axial bore there through; a first movable magnet within said housing; and at least one first wire, said at least one first wire in electrical contact with said wire coil and said rotatable hub; a second magnet located within said housing which operates as a repelling magnet; a fixed conducting rod in electrical contact with said rotatable conducting rod; at least one second wire, said at least one second wire in electrical contact with said fixed conducting rod and is capable of being electrically connected to at least one electrical component; wherein as said wheel is rotated about said axis, said first movable magnet laterally translates within said housing, passing through said axial bore of said wire coil to generating electric current for operating at least one of said at least one electrical; and at least one fluid tube between each of said at least one electricity generating device, each of said at least one fluid tube allowing a fluid to pass between a first of said at least one electricity generating device and a second of said at least one electricity generating device to help translate said first movable magnet; wherein said fluid is selected from a group consisting of a liquid, a gas, a slurry of one or more liquids and solids, a liquid and a gas, an aerosol, and combinations thereof.
