<p>A power generating device which may generate electrical power has a framework 1 which may be an upright member attached to a base plate 6. A pair of spaced apart rotating members 3 and 4 are vertically spaced apart on said upright member. A series of buoyant members 7 which may be plastic containers are linked together via a flexible medium 5 which may be an endless chain or cord and pass over both of the rotating members 3 and 4. Said buoyant members 7 enter into the bottom of a liquid or water filled tube or pipe or column 2 via a sealing member 12 that acts to prevent leakage from said column. The buoyant nature of members 7 causes them to rise to the top of column 2 thus rotating members 3 and 4. A power generating device such as a dynamo or alternator may be connected to one of the rotating devices to generate electrical energy.</p> |
