Gravity Turbine

A Gravity turbine is a device to harness gravitational energy.

In simple words gravity engine is a device which converts downward motion of any entity (in this case water) due to gravity in to rotary motion.The rotatory motion is then converted to electrical energy by attaching dynamo/alternator to the gravity engine.This entire arrangement that is Gravity engine plus alternator is called as Gravity Turbine.

This was invented by Nagendra Singh and this arrangement was filed for patent on 27th August2010 in India at Mumbai patent office.An Application of Gravity Engine is "OzzoG" an electric generator in which gravity engine is attached with Dynamo/Alternator to generate electricity.

The details description of gravity engine is given Below.
A Gravity Engine is an assembly of a Bucket system and software system which output rotatory motion .The gravity Engine is comprised of a special gearbox, Two bucket with two ropes, water flush and embeded software system, sensors, microcontrollers etc.

The Gear box has two shafts which in turn has a rope with one bucket hanging down from each shaft. In the beginning, one bucket is at the top and another is at the bottom.The sensor recognizes the bucket which is at top and commands flush systems to fill the bucket.Once the top bucket filled with water it starts descending down which powers the shafts to rotate and the empty second bucket attached to another shaft start ascending up with shaft rotation.Once the filled descending down bucket reaches bottom it emptied and makes empty second bucket to reach top.Sensor again sense the presence of second ascending bucket at top and sends message to microcontroller and in turn microcontroller commands flush to flush out water to fill the second bucket. This time filled second bucket start descendind down and making empty first bucket to ascend up.

The up and down motion of bucket is transfer to the third shafts which in turn rotates
