Aspects of the disclosure provide a power conversion system and a method for conversing power. The power conversion system includes a first fluid holding tank, a second fluid holding tank, a fluid inlet hose, a fluid outlet hose, a fluid container, and one or more tension springs connected to the upper surface of the container and to a lower surface of the first fluid holding tank. The power conversion system further includes a rotational component connected to a lower side of the container via a connecting rod. The power conversion system further includes a generator connected to the rotational component via a horizontal shaft. The power conversion system further includes a feedback hose connected between the second fluid holding tank and the first fluid holding tank. The power conversion system further includes a hydraulic pump connected to the second fluid holding tank.

A torque generator and a system and method for use of the same are disclosed. In one embodiment of the torque generator, a pair of frames are positioned in a spaced, offset relationship. Each of the frames includes a central hub with arm rails radially extending therefrom. Momentum arms having weighted ends are secured to the pair of frames to form a lattice-like structure. Each of the momentum arms faces the same direction and maintains a position parallel to the ground during rotation of the torque generator, which may be mechanically coupled to a drive unit for the transfer of torque thereto.

A generator (100) and/or machine (110) generating mechanical energy and functioning on the principle of exploitation of an energy allowing the existence of centrifugal forces (Fc) on masses (120) being displaced in rotation, into an effective elliptic trajectory (150), about a respective shaft (128) freely rotatably mounted on a plate (122) itself freely rotatably mounted on a main shaft (202) freely rotatably mounted on a fixed chassis (140). The centrifugal forces generated by the masses (120) transmit a rotational oscillating movement of the plate (122) transferred by a mechanical energy transmission mechanism into a continuous rotation movement to an output torque mechanism freely mounted on the main shaft (202).

A transfer-of-mass system for increasing rotational energy output thereof includes a sealed container having a central axis and an outer wall radially spaced apart from the central axis. A liquid partially fills the container. A motor causes the container to rotate about its central axis at a speed of rotation such that the liquid is acted upon by centrifugal forces to move it to the container's outer wall. Energy is applied to the liquid to cause at least a portion of the liquid at the container's outer wall to move towards the container's central axis wherein the container rotates faster than the speed of rotation caused by the motor.

A system for generating electricity includes a bar and a source of a pressurized fluid. A three-way connection piece has an inlet opening connected to the source through an inlet solenoid valve and a discharge opening connected to a discharge solenoid valve. A connection line connects the three-way connection piece to a working cylinder. A shaft of the working cylinder strikes against the bar causing an oscillating motion. A first and a second rod convert the oscillating motion into a back-and-forth translational motion which a drive means converts into a cyclical drive motion. An apparatus for generating electrical energy is driven by the cyclical drive motion. During operation, the inlet solenoid valve and the discharge solenoid valve are continuously switched from a first working position to a second working position, and vice versa, at a frequency which is identical to the natural frequency of the bar.

A power storage system that uses a plurality of weights, which are raised and lowered in an underground hole, by a motor generator assembly, which is energized to raise the weights thus storing potential energy in the position of the weight, and which recovers energy from lowering the weights as the weights are lowered. A connection assembly, connects between the motor generator and at least one weight; where the connection assembly allows disconnecting a weight from a specific connection assembly, and using the motor generator assembly to raise and lower a different weight once the first weight is disconnected. This enables reusing the moving parts such as the motor generator assembly with multiple different weights.

A gravitational energy storage system is provided that includes one or more tracks extending from a lower storage yard to an upper storage yard, a plurality of mass cars moveable along the track, a conveyance system comprising at least a first tether, and a first power module associated with the first tether to drive a respective one of the first tethers to move the plurality of mass cars from the lower storage yard to the upper storage yard, and to dispatch energy when the plurality of mass cars are moved from the upper storage yard to the lower storage yard.

A propulsion device is provided that is intended to be an improvement over well-known propulsion devices by utilizing a differing propulsion system that does not require expulsion of mass from the object being propelled or from the propulsion device itself. The present invention utilizes rotating disks (having a relatively large mass) interacting with freely rotating point masses (having relatively little mass; in a preferred embodiment, a point mass has a mass equal to approximately 0.018% of the mass of a rotating disk), to produce relatively large amounts of centripetal acceleration from zero to π radians of rotation, or less, without a corresponding acceleration from π to 2π radians, and thereby produce relatively large amounts of positive thrust that may be applied to an object to produce propulsion of that object.

A gravity and buoyancy engine producing energy via a cyclical process of harnessed gravity and buoyancy has a gravity chamber, at least one air lock chamber, at least one electricity producing system, at least one buoyant object, and at least one vertical motion transfer assembly. The gravity chamber provides a zone for the buoyant object to engage the vertical motion transfer assembly as the buoyant object descends toward the air lock chamber. The vertical motion transfer assembly further transfers kinetic energy from the vertical motion of the buoyant object to the electricity generating system in order to provide useable electrical energy. The airlock chamber subsequently reintroduces the buoyant object into the buoyancy chamber to return said buoyant object to an elevated position and recycle through the gravity chamber.
