<p>PURPOSE:To float air containers expanded in liquid upward continuously, by providing a plurality of enclosed and expansible air containers and a pipe communicating the air containers to each other between non-parallel rails erected in the liquid. CONSTITUTION:Rails 3 are not parallel to each other, and each of air containers 1 is made of a cylindrical, fabric-reinforced rubber, helical spring, circular metal, etc. When an expanded air container 1 is contracted, superfluous air in the container 1 is transferred to other air container 1 being expanded through a pipe 5 which is extended through the air containers 1 in the manner of communicating them to each other. When water is charged fully into a water container 2, the differential volume of an expanded air container and a contracted air container is converted into buoyancy, so that energy is produced in the direction of buoyancy. Here, air container 1 having lost buoyancy is contracted, immersed deep into the water, and then returns to its original position. In the drawing, the water container is shown in its cross section. However, as viewed from the side of a cover 6, the rails 3 are observed in the form of ?-shape.</p> |
