The size of this type of the system being placed outside depends upon the amount of work or electricity desired for the purposes of this disclosure, the term mechanism shall be taken to encompass any receptacle, whether open or closed, or formal naturally or made by man.

    [0055] The system for generating pollution free electrical energy by the mechanical movement of the hydraulic pressure cylinder operates by manually engaging the hand pump (1a) for the supply of the fluid stored in the fluid reservoir (1b) through the inlet means, gradually increasing the hydraulic pressure in the cylinder (2) through the fluid input at the inlet means, activating the mechanical movement of the said hydraulic cylinder (2) over the rack assembly comprising of opposed, spaced apart longitudinal portions joined by curved end portions, arrayed to form a substantially continuous engaging surface and pinion wheel arrangement (4) provided in the said frame (3), controlling the position and movement of the said cylinder (2) by means of the lever mechanism (5) and consequently driving the transmission gear assembly (6) and the driver gear assembly (7) for storing and transmitting the generated electrical energy and for initiating the automatic operation of the said pump (1a). The method of generating pollution free electrical energy by the mechanical movement of the hydraulic pressure cylinder as disclosed above wherein the movement of the said hydraulic cylinder is either vertical or horizontal.

    [0056] The alternative embodiment of the invention is described in FIGS. 7 through 8 wherein the hydraulic pressure cylinders (2a, 2b) are each a single circular type double acting cylinder in which one end of the connecting rod (1) is connected to the pressure cylinder through a fly wheel arrangement, and in the first embodiment in which they are different from each other in size, they are driven with similar driving hydraulic fluids as shown in FIG. 7. Therefore, unless otherwise distinguished, a driving hydraulic fluid of the boom cylinders is explained as an example, and as concerns driving hydraulic fluid of the other cylinder, only the different points will be described.

    [0057] Another embodiment of the invention is described in FIG. 7(a) where in one end of the connecting rod (8) of the double acting cylinders is coupled with freewheel (10) arrangement to the fly wheel which comprises a bearing (11), lock pin (12) and bearing cover (13).

    [0058] The non-polluting human powered hybrid horizontal machine with dual hydraulic drive cylinder for energy generation and transmission comprises at least two horizontal hydraulic cylinders (2a, 2b) with inlet mechanism for receiving the fluid from the fluid reservoir (1b), at least two inputs and two outputs provided at the either ends of the said horizontal hydraulic cylinders (2a, 2b), at least two flexible connecting conduits engaging the input of cylinder (2a) with the output of the cylinder (2b) and the output of cylinder (2a) with the input of the cylinder (2b), a connecting rod (8) positioned in between the said at least two horizontal hydraulic double cylinders (2a, 2b), fly wheels (9a, 9b) engaged with the said connecting rod for providing the bicycle mechanism movement to the said double cylinders, a fluid reservoir (1b) containing the fluid positioned at the first end of the said hydraulic cylinder (2) being driven mechanically by the pump (1a), electric motors and/or drive chains (1c) electrically connected to the said pump (1a) is supplied power by the driver gear (7) and a transmission gear (6) in driving contact with the said pinion wheel arrangement (4) for converting the mechanical movement of the said hydraulic horizontal cylinder (2) into electrical energy.

    [0059] The oil stored in the fluid reservoir (1b) is initially forced into the said one of the double hydraulic cylinders from the oil reservoir (1b) through the mechanical pumps (1a) provided at the upper portion of the said fluid reservoir. The fluid pressured by the mechanical hand pump is conveyed through the at least two flexible conduits between the said double hydraulic pressure cylinders (2a, 2b). The hydraulic pressure cylinders (2a, 2b) are each a single circular type double acting cylinder in which one end of the connecting rod is connected to the pressure cylinder through a fly wheel arrangement (4), and in the first embodiment in which they are different from each other in size, they are driven with similar driving hydraulic fluids as shown in FIG. 7. Therefore, unless otherwise distinguished, a driving hydraulic fluid of the boom cylinders is explained as an example, and as concerns driving hydraulic fluid of the other cylinder, only the different points will be described.

    [0060] The balanced pressure created by the flowing fluid inside the said double hydraulic cylinders introduces the movement of the said cylinders in the horizontal direction through the connecting rods fixed along with the fly wheels. This mechanical movement of the double hydraulic pressure cylinder is in the form of a bicycle mode of movement maintaining a constant pressure difference between the said two cylinders. The non-polluting human powered hybrid horizontal machine with hydraulic drive cylinder for energy generation and transmission as illustrated in FIGS. 7 and 8 wherein the fluid from the reservoir is conveyed inter alia between the said double cylinders through the said flexible conduits and the system provides a bicycle mechanism for the generation of electric power between the said double cylinders through the said fly wheels connecting the rod and the cylinders.

    [0061] The mode of operation of this alternate embodiment for the continuous power generation is based on the fluid pressure balance between the said double hydraulic drive cylinders connected by means of a connecting rod engaging the fly wheels between them for the ease of the mechanical movement to exist between the cylinders which inadvertently rotates the gears for continuous power generation. The flow of the fluid into the hydraulic cylinders is executed by the double elastic conduits provided at least two in each of the said cylinders for the inlet and outlet into and from the cylinders. The fluid flow in the cylinders and between the said double hydraulic cylinders induces the pressure for the continuous bicycle movement between the said cylinders resulting in the rotation of the gear mechanism positioned in connection with the said double cylinders. This bicycle mode of operation is held together by the frictionless connecting rod with the help of the freewheel arrangement to the fly wheel existing between the said cylinders.

    [0062] Although this specification discloses the invention primarily using hydraulic in its operation, for a particular application and there is no adverse impact on the environment. This type of power plant can be built and operated as a source fir distributed allocation of electric power allowing it to provide electricity to a power grid system. Connecting the invention to a power grid system would allow the power plant to provide electricity to large regions such as but not limited to towns, cities, countries, districts, provinces and states. The invention can also be implemented as a single free standing unit of a system of interconnecting units to provide electricity to specific facilities such as but not limited to: manufacturing plants, shopping malls, stores, office building, hospitals, military bases, multifamily residences as well as other facilities. Additionally, the invention can be implemented as a portable unit to provide electricity for commercial functions like fairs and construction sites, private uses like camping and recreation, as well as providing electricity to other entities and other functions. The system is scalable in size, for example being scaled down to power the operation of the invention tank. Whether external or self-contained allows this system to be utilized in various environments as a source for distributed allocation of electricity either as a single free standing unit or a combined system.
