Abstract
A mechanical machine containing water in three tanks in its entirety, represented by a tank fixed at the top of the machine and not moving, and a tank moving up and down in the middle of the machine, and a tank moving up and down at the bottom of the machine. The movement of the middle and lower tank periodically tries to transfer water to the upper tank through five stages through its interaction with the remaining main parts of the machine (for example, gas springs, large water injections and automatic mechanical braking system).

(50) As for when the time becomes to release the large gas springs (8) (
(51) After releasing the brake pedal (23) (
(52) In this version, the brakes boxes of the large hydraulic lift cylinders aren't needed, because hydraulic lifting cylinders do not need to be braking.

(68) Part Three: Important physical calculations in the principle of machine operation as follows:
(69) 1) The momentum losing by the gas springs on average is =(20%) from the weight that compressed them, for example: (the gas spring that is compressed by 1000 kg, it can raise 800 kg), and because of the gas springs compression in two phases in the machine's cycle, The (large springs (8) (
(70) 2) Explain the equation of the distribution of weights in the phases of the machine cycle, which the middle tank (12) (
(71) The First Phase.
(72) If the weight of the water in the middle tank (12) (
(73) So: we subtract from the weight 4800 kg, the weight that water syringes (15.1) (
(74) The (weight 4000 kg), is the weight that must compress the large gas springs (8) (
(75) The Third Phase.
(76) At the beginning of this phase, the water has been transported from the middle tank (12) (
(77) But here the small gas springs (9) (
(78) So: the total of the weight from the momentum gained by the (the large gas springs (8) (
(79) That's mean: these the large gas springs ((8) (

(81) Finally, the Fourth Phase.
(82) At the beginning of this phase, the weight that all gas springs ((8) (
(83) And this result (800 kg) will be distributed to the water syringes (15.3) (
(84) Always the small quantity of water at the bottom of the lower tank (13) (
(85) In addition to the simplified first model (
