20220128031 · 2022-04-28 ·

A hand-held portable mobile device, and a method of use, to generate electricity to charge mobile devices, such as smart phones, by using the kinetic energy of the user's own exhaling air or a manual pump. The device consists of two units; a blowing tube unit and a coupling generator unit. The generator unit include a mechanical part and an electrical part. The mechanical part comprises a freely spinning hollow shaft driven by the force of the user's exhaled air entering into the shaft and then exiting the shaft from narrow orifices of multiple L-shaped pipes configured on the shaft so that the forceful exit of the air from the pipes creates a reactional force that causes the hollow shaft to rotate rapidly. The speed of the shaft's rotation is then further augmented by coupling gears. The rotational force is transmitted to the rotor of a coupling DC generator inside the housing of the generator unit. The electricity thus produced by the generator can be directly delivered to a connected mobile device to be charged via power outlet. In another preferred embodiment, the produced electricity can be stored in coupling capacitor and/or internal battery incorporated within the generator unit. The apparatus further includes a pressure regulator to limit the air pressure entering the device and a second electric regulator to prevent overcharging.

WIND AEOLIPILE
20210343293 · 2021-11-04 ·

Described herein is essentially a high-efficiency, hybrid fluid aeolipile. In operation, this hybrid device is placed in the stream of a moving fluid, preferably air. Energy is extracted from the fluid stream by directing a portion of the stream through and, optionally, around the device. As the fluid flow moves through the device, it is directed into nozzles. These nozzles, which are free to pivot in a cyclical manner, employ the established phenomenon of “nozzle effect” to accelerate the velocity of the air-flow passing through them, which is ultimately ejected from each nozzle tip, producing thrust. This thrust, amplified by nozzle effect, drives the nozzles to pivot around a shared axis. The wind energy, thereby converted into cyclical motion, that may be used to perform useful work, is converted with greater efficiency than is possible in conventional blade-type wind turbines.
