Closed circuit for driving electrical power station - is triangular with weighted chain passing around shafts with two sides form levers in bores slopping at 45 deg. to main shaft

摘要

The closed circuit is supplied with a chain loaded by weights which form levers possibly by providing an eccentric force on the drive shaft. The levers are formed as tensile force on the drive shaft and are brought into a sloping position of at least two thirds of the length of the endless chain turning in a triangular connection around its shafts. The D.C. machine at the end of the first triangle is brought up to set speed and voltage and provides immediate current for lighting in the sloping tunnels connected to the main well and charging batteries. This is separate from the loading of the stations alternator. The second sloping side of the triangle has a D.C. motor with a reduction shaft returning the chain upward with a 10:1 rev. ratio.
