The first and second modules are identical, symmetrical, and each include, respectively, a main vessel connected to a first or second liquid tank, respectively, an outer ballast vessel capable of moving into the main vessel, an inner ballast vessel capable of moving into the ballast vessel, a ballasted skirt that is suspended on said outer ballast vessel, and is capable of vertically opening out or closing, and first and second transmission devices for transmitting the movement of the outer and inner ballast vessels to alternators.

A system for energy conversion, including a support structure defining at least one guide channel; at least a plurality of extensible elements between a compressed configuration and a dilated configuration and vice versa and configured to move a volume of a fluid in which they are immersible equal to the predetermined volume difference between the dilated configuration and the compressed configuration of each extensible element. The extensible elements are configured to slide along the guide channel during a switching of the extensible elements. During the switching of the extensible elements the system determines a conversion of potential energy into an useful energy, whose value is proportional to a total volume of the fluid displaced by the extensible elements in the dilated configuration and at a depth reached by an extensible element with respect to said free surface of the fluid.

In accordance with the present invention a start/stop system is provided for a machine that drives an electric generator by moving buoyant modules on a duty-cycle pathway through a bi-level water tank. Included is a valve mechanism that maintains different water surface levels in the bi-level tank, and also establishes different spaces within the bi-level tank. Additionally, grips are included for selectively holding individual modules in respective spaces. To stop the machine, water is drained from the bi-level tank, and grips are activated, to hold modules in their respective spaces. To restart, water is introduced into the spaces and the grips are deactivated to release the modules for operation.

An energy conversion device includes a container body configured to hold a liquid; a housing affixed above the container body by a handler connected to a surface of the container body, wherein a primary roller is configured to rotate at a first end of the housing and a free roller is configured to rotate at a second end of the housing; a piston attached at a first end to an outer perimeter of the primary roller; an inflatable balloon attached to a second end of the piston within the container body, wherein vertical movement of the piston causes the primary roller to rotate; an air chamber configured to supply air to a lower opening in the inflatable balloon via a balloon valve; and an interconnect located on a side of the free roller configured for connection to one of an energy-driven device or a turbine generator.

The disclosed technology provides for an apparatus for translating energy through the use of mechanics, fluid displacement, gravity and buoyancy. The apparatus generally includes a base having float chambers and plunger chambers in fluid communication, a plurality of floats and plungers, and an energy transform assembly. The energy transform assembly includes a plurality of linkage mechanisms supported by the upper support structure and a plurality of linkage mechanisms supported by the lower support structure. Each linkage mechanism includes a pair of levers and an elongated transfer bar, with each lever rotatably affixed to an opposing end of the transfer bar in a manner to translate rotation of one lever with lateral movement of the transfer bar and lateral movement of the transfer bar causes rotation of the other lever.

An apparatus powered by piston buoyancy is provided to generate rotary power by utilizing the effects of buoyancy and includes a tank containing a volume of liquid below a liquid level. A crankshaft is provided and is rotatably mounted to the tank above the liquid level. The crankshaft includes a rotatable main shaft. A hollow piston is disposed within the liquid in the tank and is provided having an interior cavity, an open bottom and one or more movable trap doors located at the top of the piston. A piston rod connects the hollow piston to a section of the crankshaft offset from a longitudinal axis of the main shaft. A gas supply system is provided having an outlet positioned beneath the open bottom end of the piston to supply gas to the interior cavity of the hollow piston and cause the piston to move upward and rotate the crankshaft.

The invention is a system and method of generating hydraulic gravitational energy. Specifically, traditional gravitational electricity systems use a weight as a battery. However, the weight must be pulled upwards after it is dropped, which expends the created energy. In contrast, the disclosed arrangement employs a hydraulic system to lift the weight from a lower height to an upper height. Notably, hydraulics create more energy than is exerted. Thus, using hydraulics to lift the weight multiplies the energy produced each time the weight is dropped from a first height to a second, lower height. As a result, gravitational solutions can extend beyond non-traditional batteries, and can be used to generate electricity instead.

A potential energy store has a hydraulic cylinder in which a piston for storing energy in the form of potential energy of the piston is arranged. A position of the piston relative to the earth's surface can be varied. A pump pumps hydraulic fluid via lines into the hydraulic cylinder such that the piston is raised. A generator converts hydraulic energy of hydraulic fluid, which is displaced out of the hydraulic cylinder as the piston falls, into electricity. A seal arrangement is at least partially arranged between the hydraulic cylinder and the piston. The seal arrangement has a sealing section with a flexible support structure for absorbing the acting forces. The support structure may be coated on one or both sides with a layer which is impervious to fluid and which seals against the passage of fluid or may be impregnated with a solidified material which is impervious to fluid.
