Abstract

The machine consists of two groups of rotors (5-8 and 51-81) mounted with their axes vertical and suspended from a platform (2) supported by floats (1). The rotors are immersed in the flowing water and are symmetrically arranged on either side of the central wall (4). The rotors (5-7 and 51-71) are connected by endless belts which carry blades (9, 91) mounted on pivots and so controlled, that the angle of inclination with respect to the flow of water will result in the maximum power being generated. Additional rotors (8, 81) are provided inside the loops formed by the belts. The device can be used to extract power from rivers or tides and can be adapted to suit wind.
