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

Advantage of Invention
The embodiments of the present invention provide a gravity engine which converts downward motion of mass due to gravity in to rotational motion. The rotation motion induced can be utilized for various applications such as it can be used to generate power by attaching dynamo to it, to rotate wind mills in absence of wind, to rotate the potter’s wheel, it can be attached to the cattle feed cutting machine to cut down cattle feed in to pieces, in power handlooms, in hand pump set to take water out from Well, it can be used as fan by attaching blades to it, it can be used in factory premises to run the conveyor belt. The gravity engine according to present invention is capable of producing rotary motion and hence can be used as a motor. For example this gravity engine can be applied as motor to power escalator in shopping mall, railway stations and airports.It is easy to install and affordable by a common person. The speed of the engine can be controlled as this machine uses microcontroller. It can be installed anywhere on terraces of house and in the well. It works in any climate, condition, season and temperature. The gravity engine as compared to other engine does not consume any fuel it purely works on the gravitational force.

FAQs on Gravity Turbine
1.What is the meaning of Ojas?
Ans:Ojas is Sanskrit word which means "lustre".
2.Why it is unique invention?
Ans: because it is first time an attempt has been made to capture gravitational energy and utilze to convert in to other forms of energy like mechanical energy and electrical energy.
3.What is diffrent about gravitational energy other than Solar and Wind energy?
Ans:Solar energy needs strong sunlight whereas a Wind mill needs Strong flow of Wind to run it.but in case of gravity is available everywhere and all time on our planet.
4.Can this engine be used for Automobiles?
Ans:No.It is standing engine can not be used for automobiles.
5.Why you call this machine as gravity engine?
Ans:Because this machine convert gravity induced downward motion of any mass/load in to mechanical rotation.In simple word it is device to captivate gravitational energy.
6.Why you call this as revolutionary engine?
Ans.Till date all engines consume fossil fuels but this engine does not consume any fuel.It needs mass/load (in present version water) which is again recycled.So I can say that it convert gravitational energy in to other form of energy like maechanical energy,electrical energy etc. without any cost.hence I call it as revolutionary engine.
7.How GPEG(Gravity Powered Electric Generator) is different from hydro Power Plants?
Ans:It is same as the hydropower plant but here no need to have water reservoir.It requires less amount of water which can be recycle again.
Second diffrence is in case of hydropower plant the turbine i.e.alternator is kept at the bottom where as in this case it is kept at the top.
third difference is in hydropower plant free water flows top to bottom whereas in this case water flows from top to bottom in bucket.
8.How much energy one can generate?
Ans.There is no limit for generation of amount of energy.For household use energy
20 feet height with 10 liter of water it can generate 1Kilo watt energy.Total expense to set up household plant will be around Rs.1.5 lakhs.
9.How it is different from other source of energy like wind and solar.
Ans:For Solar Energy one need sunlight continously which is not available during night and rainy season.For Wind energy one need continouse speedy flow of wind or air.But in Gravity engine just need height and small amount of water.Water used can be recycle again.
This set up can be used in allover world wherever water and gravity is present.
10.What is future of this technology?
Ans:Presently in india itself Rural area is not electrified.So with this cheap and affordable technology Nano Power plant can reach to each home like television set and Mobile.For third world countries it will be like panacea.
Moreover Future of this technology is bright as demand for hybrid automobiles are increasing day by day.in this purview Reva and Prius can be cited as example.
