Technical Field: EIVED ay.

The present invention relates generally to a power-generating apparatug, and more : particularly, to an apparatus for generating power using gravitational g@ng magnetic : energies. :

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION:

The present production of electricity or electrical energy is mostly done by power plants by burning of fossil fuels or using nuclear or other renewable energies like geothermal, hydropower, sun, wind, etc.

Burning of fossil fuels to produce electricity is detrimental to our environment and is one of the causes of climate change. On the other hand, the use of nuclear energy in the production of electricity yields radioactive wastes which are hazardous to both humans and the environment. Production of electricity using renewable energies like hydropower, : geothermal, wind or solar are more environmental-friendly than using fossil fuels or nuclear energy, however, these renewable energies are not constant and are often limited within a certain area.

Unlike the aforementioned renewable energies, there are other available alternative energy sources which are often overlooked but are constantly present in any given area.

Some of these alternative energy sources are gravitational energy and magnetic energy.

These energies can be converted into mechanical energy and then to electrical energy, and when harnessed can be used to generate electricity. As such, these alternative energies can be considered as reliable sources of electric power. According to the aforesaid concept, numerous apparatus for generating power using gravity and magnetic forces have been developed.

One of these apparatuses is the power generating apparatus disclosed in U.S.

Publication No. 2013/0037352 wherein the application was filed in the PCT on April 20, 2011. The invention as disclosed therein involves a power generating apparatus that

: includes a rotor fixed at either side of its main shaft, and heavy weighted bodies are arranged at a plurality of levers deployed during a descending operation and folded up during an ascending operation performed in the course of rotation of the rotor, such that the weighted bodies are unbalanced in a horizontal direction. An arch-shaped magnetic levitation unit is arranged adjacent to and above the rotors. The heavy weighted body located at the position of mechanical energy is levitated by means of the magnetic force from the magnetic levitation unit at a starting point of the magnetic force, such that a wheel is brought into contact with and rolls on a rail of a magnetic support, and the heavy weighted body levitates in the air at the position of mechanical energy. Then, the weighted body moves at a speed faster than the rotating speed of the rotors by means of a rotational propulsion member of a driving motor, such that the folded lever can be deployed and the heavy weighted body falls downwards by itself at an ending point of the magnetic force, at which the magnetic force is weakened. Thus, the weight arranged last the edge of the rotor increases power and torque in the direction of gravity, and converts gravity-based kinetic energy into mechanical energy so as to rotate the rotors and the main shaft and thus generate power.

The apparatus of the aforesaid prior art comprises a plurality of driving bodies being supported by and fixed at either side of a main shaft forming a radial shape, a plurality for spring housing, a driving support coupled to one side of the spring housing, a buffer spring, lever arm having a lever formed at a position in which the spring housing and the driving support is coupled, rotors find to the main shaft, a weighted body, a magnetic levitation unit, a plurality of magnetic fixing parts, a driving motor, time belt, a plurality of rotational propulsion members and a propulsion shaft.

The aforesaid apparatus appears capable of achieving its intended rotational movement to generate power, however, some problems have been observed in the use of such power generating apparatus. One of this is that there are numerous foldable levers involved which are in contact with numerous springs to increase the torque of the rotor.

Such manner of engagement through utilization of such springs decreases the tensional characteristics of said springs due to constant contact with the levers. Such loosening of spring tension decreases the rotational performance of the rotor of the apparatus.

Summary:

The present invention tends to solve the aforesaid problems by providing an apparatus for generating power wherein its rotational movement is being performed not by oo complicated levers and springs, but rather by spinning means that includes a plurality of weights and magnetic rotating means. Such spinning means derives its mechanical force from about 80% to 95% gravitational energy and about 5% to 20% magnetic energy. An optional ballastible means may be provided to the apparatus to provide additional mechanical energy to facilitate continuous rotational movement.

Another object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus and method for generating power wherein its concept and mechanical features are very simple and yet can perform its intended power generation more effectively.

Yet another object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for generating power which can be used in industries with much lesser cost in terms of operation that the : i existing intemal combustion engine power plant.

Still another object of the present invention is that the apparatus does not utilize fuel and electricity in its operation.

Other objects and advantages of the present invention will be realized upon reading the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings, wherein like reference numerals are used to refer to like elements.

The apparatus (10) for generating power includes a main shaft (11) being capable of rotational movement through a primary spinning means (12) attached thereof, and a secondary spinning means fixedly held on said shaft (11) being made such that it is capable of providing supplemental kinetic energy to facilitate continuous 360 degree : rotation of the said shaft (11). Said primary spinning means (12) being configured such that is capable of moving along a fixed axis of rotation which in turn causes main shaft (11) to : { rotate. Said primary spinning means (12) is defined by a plurality of radially disposed weights of varying sizes and mass, each being held at a predetermined angle on said shaft (11). In another aspect, a plate P is fixedly attached to the said shaft (11) being made such : that it is capable of holding thereof said plurality weights to provide optimised rotation. :

The primary spinning means (12) may consist of different kinds of weights including, :

but not limited to, inner weights (1), center weights (C), flywheel weights (Ft) [referred to “flyweights”, hereafter], and outer weights (0). The outer weights (O) include a driver D which serves as main driving means. Except for the flyweights (Ft), the other weights (D, 0, C, I) have varying sizes and mass, and are placed at predetermined angles on the primary spinning means (12), such that the rotation of the primary spinning means (12) is optimized.

The primary spinning means (12) may be fixed or removably attached to the shaft (11), in a manner wherein the plurality of weights (D, O, C, |, Ft) may be attached to the plate (P) or to both the plate (P) and the shaft (11), or the plurality of weights (D, O, C, I, Ft) may be directly attached to the main shaft (11).

Each of the plurality of weights (D, O, C, Ft) may be held radially by rod or pole fixedly held on said plate (P) or they may be fixedly attached to the main shaft (11). The plurality of weights (D, O, C, I, Ft) may be made of any material that may serve the purpose; however, concrete or metals are preferable. The number of weights (D, O, C, |,

Ft) needed for the spinning means (12) may vary depending on the size and capacity of the apparatus.

In another aspect, at least a flywheel (Fl) and/or at least a ballastible means may be attached to the primary spinning means (12) to provide additional rotational force to the main shaft. Said ballastible means may be a tubular member having suitable ballast materials being held therein. Said ballast may be material that includes liquid and fine solid particles such as sand, water or aggregates. The ballastible means is preferably a polygonal tube wherein the said ballast can freely flow or move inside as it moves or changes position. For illustrative purposes, the ballastible means discussed herein is a triangular tube (T), however, it may assume other suitable geometric figure. Said flywheel (FI) and ballastible means may be attached in multiple into the primary spinning means (12), one for each side, to maintain balance during the operation of the apparatus to increase the amount of energy generated by the apparatus.

With the primary spinning means (12) as a whole and its other variations, the provision of the triangular tube (T) thereof compliments in stabilizing the constant energy and the spinning velocity of the apparatus while in operation by providing additional ; rotational force to the shaft (11). The flow of the ballast inside the triangular tube (T) changes the center of gravity as the side of the triangular tube (T) with the larger volume falls, thereby reinforcing the gravitational energy working on the spinning means (12).

Said secondary spinning means is preferably a magnetic rotating means (13) being arranged such that it is capable of providing supplemental rotational force to the primary spinning means (12) and main shaft (11) through magnetic energy such that the primary spinning means (12) will be able too rotate continuously. Said magnetic rotating means is disposed in a manner wherein it is in communication with the main shaft (11) through pulley and/or belt, or in another aspect, it can be fixedly attached to the shaft (11). The magnetic rotating means (13) rotates together with the shaft (11) and the primary spinning means (12) during operation. The provision of said magnetic rotating means (13) facilitates continuous rotation of the primary spinning means (12) once the starter or the starting means (16) of the apparatus is switched off.

The magnetic rotating means (13) controls the spinning velocity or revolution per minute (RPM) of the primary spinning means (12) and stabilizes the constant speed of the apparatus while in operation. Once the magnetic rotating means (13) stops, the spinning means would gradually slow down until its operation stops. The spinning velocity of the magnetic rotating means (13) in use ranges from 300 to 3,600 RPM depending on the kind or type of the magnetic rotating means (13). Also the voltage requirement of the magnetic rotating means (13) using electromagnets ranges from 1.5 V to 220 V, depending upon the size and capacity of the invention machine.

The concept involved in the operation of the magnetic rotating means is the principle regarding attraction or repulsion between like and unlike poles in magnets, such that it is capable of rotation or spinning. A portion of the magnetic rotating means, which is either the positive or negative pole of the magnet is made to attach to the main shaft and the opposing magnet is made to communicate thereof. As a result, the portion of the magnetic rotating means (13) which is attached to the shaft spins or rotates and delivers the reinforcing rotational force to the shaft and the primary spinning means (12).

The triangular tube (T) can also serve the function of said magnetic rotating means (13) when it is not in use. The triangular tube (T) can provide additional rotational force required by the shaft to continuously rotate, however, it is less than what the magnetic rotating means can provide. The triangular tube is only for low speed operation, having a spinning velocity ranging from 30 to 180 RPM depending on its size.

As illustrated in Fig. 20, there are three types or kinds of magnetic rotating means (13) that can be used in the invention machine.

Type A: All Natural Magnets (NM)

This type of magnetic rotating means (13), as shown in Fig. 20 A, composed of all natural magnets (or permanent magnets) bonded together in a reverse polarity in a circular steel plate or plastic material form, designed to spin or rotate (as shown in Fig. 6).

This kind of magnetic rotating means is designed to rotate or spin freely like that of the usual bearing of a common existing machine. There are two layers of this type of magnetic rotating means — the outer portion and the inner portion. The outer portion is attached to a base while the inner portion is the one attached to the shaft 11).

This type may also be designed as a circle divided or cut into two halves as illustrated in Figures 21 A and B. The natural or permanent magnets bonded together in a circle as a whole or both of the halves are slid in or pushed forward and put in place accordingly to switch on the magnetic spinning means (13). The circle is slide out to switch off the magnetic spinner.

Type B: A combination of electromagnets (EM) and natural magnets (NM)

This type of magnetic rotating means (as shown in Figure 20 B) is attached to the shaft as shown in Figures 1,2,4,5,7, 8,9, 10 and 11.

This type is composed of both electromagnets and natural magnets, and is designed to rotate or spin freely like that of a bearing that can spin or rotate while in attachment. Similar to the type A magnetic rotating means, this type is also designed such that the outer portion is attached to a base and the inner portion is attached to the shaft (11). The outer portion is composed of electromagnets while the inner portion is composed of natural or permanent magnets.

This type is housed in a square case or circle or round steel plate or plastic materials (as shown in Fig. 1). The natural magnets are bonded together in reverse polarity and the magnetic rotating means is designed to spin or rotate whenever it is ; switched on or supplied with electricity.

Type C: All electromagnets (EM): ]

This type of magnetic rotating means can be used in the apparatus is composed of all electromagnets (as shown in Figure 20 C). This is the usual electric motor that can be : found or bought in the market used in many applications like in electric fans, washing machines, and the like. This electric motor functions whenever switched on or supplied with electricity.

This type of magnetic rotating means is attached to the shaft through chain, gears, pulleys and belts (as shown in figure 3). Considering that the electric motor is high speed and the speed of the spinning or rotation of the shaft (11) and the primary spinning means (12) is low speed that ranges only from 300 to 900 RPM, the sizes or diameters of the belts or pulleys attached to the shaft are of different lengths and sizes or diameters used for the step up and step down revolution per minute rotation. This is also the same for the gears and chain to have different length, sizes or diameters when in use instead of belts or pulleys (as shown in Fig. 3, 7, 10, 11).

All the types of the magnetic rotating means (13) used in the apparatus may vary in size, shapes and capacities. The usage of the kind or type of the magnetic rotating means (13) depends on the size or capacity of the apparatus.

The magnetic rotating means (13) type A and B are designed to be low speed and the RPM ranges only from 300 to 900 when in use depending upon the size and capacity.

On the other hand, the type C magnetic rotating means (13), which is like an electric motor is high speed that may reach up 3,600 RPM. The application, usage or attachment of this type C magnetic rotating means to the apparatus is with different sizes, lengths or diameters of pulleys, belts, chains or gears for increasing or decreasing the spinning velocity (as shown in Figure 3) to match with the spinning velocity of the spinning means (12) that ranges from 300 to 900 RPM.

In another aspect of the present invention, the primary spinning means (12) of the present invention may vary with the usage and the size or the capacity of the apparatus.

The primary spinning means (12) can be fixedly attached to the shaft (11) as shown in Fig. 12 A, orit can be detachable as shown in Fig. 12 B.

Depending on the capacity of the apparatus, some of the weights may or may not be present in the primary spinning means (12). As shown in Fig. 13 C, the triangular tube (T) in the primary spinning means (12) may exceed beyond the flywheel (FI), or the triangular tube (T) may not be present in the primary spinning means (12) as shown or in Fig. 13 D.

The plate (P) may or may not be permanently attached to the shaft (11) and serves as the spinning means (12) itself wherein all the weights (D, O, C, |, Ft) of the primary spinning means (12) are present in the plate (P). The plurality of weights (D, O, C, I, Ft) are permanently attached to the plate (P) as shown in Fig. 15 H. The plate (P) serving as the primary spinning means (12) may also include the triangular tube (T) as illustrated in

Fig. 16 I.

Another variation of the primary spinning mean (12) consists only of the driver (D), other outer weights (O), the plate (P), the inner weights (I), and the triangular tube (T) as illustrated in Fig. 16 J. The triangular tube (T) may not be present in this variation of the primary spinning means (12) as shown in Figure 17 K.

Yet another variation of the primary spinning mean (12) may consist only of the driver (D) and other outer weights, the plate (P) and the triangular tube (T) as illustrated in

Figure 17 L. The triangular tube (T) may not be present in this variation of the spinning means (12) as shown in Figure 17 M. Furthermore, the primary spinning means (12) may consist only of the driver (D), the plate (P) and the triangular tube (T) as illustrated in Figure 18 N and it may happen that the primary spinning means (12) may consist only of the plate (P) and the driver (D) as shown in Figure 18 O.

Some variations of the primary spinning means (12) may not include the presence of the flywheel (FI) and the plate (P), as shown in Fig. 14. Other variations may also not include the presence of the inner weights (1), as shown in Fig. 15 G.

The primary spinning means (12) may have two flywheels (FI) and also two triangular tubes (T) attached, wherein the other flywheel (F1) together with the other triangular tube (T) is attached on the other side of the primary spinning means (12) as illustrated in Figure 18 P.

The apparatus may have multiple primary spinning means (12) attached to shaft (11) as illustrated in Fig. 19 A and B.

The apparatus of the present invention can be connected by conventional means to a suitable generator (14) for converting to electricity the power generated by the apparatus

The generator (14) also rotates or spins together with the primary spinning means (12), shaft (11), and the secondary spinning means during operation. The generator (14) : becomes part of the apparatus in the production of electricity considering that it also ; powers the magnetic rotating means (13), particularly if the magnetic rotating means (13) being used during the operation is type B or type C. Considering that the apparatus is low speed and the spinning velocity ranges only from 300 to 600 RPM, and the spinning velocity of the generator (14) ranges from 900 to 3,600 RPM to produce 220 volts of electricity, the communication of the generator (14) with the shaft (11) is done with belts, chains, gears or pulleys of different lengths, sizes or diameters for increasing or decreasing the spinning velocity (as shown in Figures 3, 7, 10, 11) to meet the required spinning velocity of the generator (14) in use.

Considering the different sizes and capacities or power that may be generated by the invention which can be from 1.5 volts to megawatts, there are variations of the present invention as an additional from the possible variations as stated earlier.

Figure 2 to Figure 11 shows the variations of the present invention as compared to

Figure 1, which shows the main apparatus.

Figure 2 shows that the magnetic rotating means can be placed at the rear portion of the of the apparatus while in Figure 3 illustrates that the present invention can use chain (28A, 23B) alternately or instead of the belt (21A, 21B) in the connection of the starter (1 6) to the shaft (11) and also the connection of the generator (14) to the shaft (11). Figure 3 illustrates a magnetic rotating means (13) detached from the shaft with pulleys for decreasing the spinning velocity.

Generator (14) can be either low speed or high speed. Considering that the spinning velocity of the primary spinning means (12) is slower than the present conventional internal combustion machines, the spinning velocity of the present invention has to be increased to meet the speed requirement of the generator (14) used in the production of electricity, or that of the high speed generator (13) used by the present conventional internal combustion machines. Figure 10 illustrates the increased spinning velocity of the present invention with the use of the wheel pulleys (27A — 27F) connected with the wheel pulley belts (28A — 28C). ["Wheel pulley” is used in this present invention for this particular Figure 10 to differentiate with that of the pulleys (18A — 18C) on the shaft (1 1)]. Increasing the spinning velocity can also be done with the use of the gears (29E — 29F) as shown in Figure 11.

Operation: ;

The driver (D) on the primary spinning means (12) is initially placed at a one o'clock : position, fixed in place by a holder until the driver (D) is set to be released. The driver (D) is then released through manual operation or with the aid of a starter or the starting means (16) by switching on the switch (19B) provided in the apparatus. When the driver (D) is released from position, it falls due to gravity and provides rotational force to the shaft (11) that is attached to the primary spinning means (12). However, the gravitational energy acting upon the spinning means is not enough for it to complete one revolution. A secondary spinning means is then provided to reinforce power to the spinning means.

Once the invention machine is in motion, the kinetic energy generated from the continuous rotation of the shaft is converted by a generator (14) into electrical energy.

The operation of the invention machine for the production of electricity depends on the type of magnetic rotating means (13) being used. For a lower capacity, a triangular tube may be used instead of a magnetic rotating means to provide the additional energy for the continuous rotation of the primary spinning means (12). The magnetic rotating means (13) regulates the spinning velocity of the shaft (11) and the primary spinning means (12) which ranges from 300 to 900 RPM and also help in attaining the constant speed of the apparatus during operation.

In all types of the magnetic rotating means (13), the spinning velocity of the primary spinning means (12) ranges from 300 to 600, which is also the range of the spinning velocity of the apparatus while in operation. However, there are different sizes or diameters of the belts, chains, gears or pulleys installed in the apparatus for increasing or decreasing the spinning velocity for the connection to the installed generator (14) to meet the desired spinning velocity of the generator (14) for the production of the electricity; that is, the generator with only two poles requires 3,600 RPM to produce 220 volts while the four poles generator only 1,800 RPM and the 8 poles generator only 900 RPM.

Considering that the spinning velocity of the apparatus ranges only from 300 to 600

RPM, reaching the desired RPM is also made possible with the belts and pulleys or chain or gears attached to the shaft which are of different lengths and sizes or diameters used for the step up and step down revolution per minute rotation (as shown in Figures 3,7, 10, 11).

In the process, while in operation the apparatus generates or produces electricity through the installed generator (14) that continuously produces electricity and powers the magnetic rotating means (13). In effect, and in the process, the magnetic rotating means (13) also continuously delivers the rotating force to the shaft and the primary spinning means (12).

As the operation goes on, the magnetic rotating means (13) continuously reinforces the gravitational energy that powers for the continuing operation of the apparatus in the : production of electricity. While the invention machine is continuously operating, eventually : it will reach its constant speed through the acceleration produced in the rotation or spinning process of the shaft (11) and the primary spinning means (12). The constant speed : depends on the weight of the driver (D) that drives the primary spinning means (12) in the : operation. The motions in the spinning process of the primary spinning means (12) powered by both the gravitational and magnetic energies, produce acceleration. As the rotation of the primary spinning means (12) increases, the driver (D) is “thrown” with the increasing speed and correspondingly the revolution-per-minute (RPM) or the velocity of the primary spinning means (12) increases.

However, the velocity of the primary spinning means (12) reaching a constant speed is dependent on the weight of the driver (D) and regulated by the magnetic rotating means (13). The spinning of the primary spinning means (12) due to the “throwing away” of the driver (D) in the spinning or rotating process brought about by the centrifugal force that draws the driver (D) away from the center of rotation is dependent on the driver D) and its weight and the capacity of the magnetic rotating means (13) that at the same time control the spinning.

The spinning velocity of the driver (D) and the primary spinning means (12) has to reach only a certain peak and cannot go beyond considering that the limits of the acceleration due to gravity of 9.8 m/s?, and is controlled by the magnetic spinning means (13). With this, the apparatus can reach a constant speed or RPM ranging from 300 to 600 needed for the production of electricity.

The capacity of the magnetic rotating means (13) installed has to correspond or match to the capacity of the apparatus; that is, a small capacity magnetic rotating means (13) is not appropriate for an apparatus of bigger capacity. In other words, a one horse i power magnetic rotating means (13) should not be installed for a two horse power capacity apparatus.

Aside from the magnetic rotating means (13), the triangular tube (T) also delivers the rotating force to the shaft (11) and to the primary spinning means (12); and helps : stabilize the spinning or rotation of the primary spinning means(12) for constant energy generation during operation.

The flow and changes of liquid volume inside the triangular tube (T) brought about by the changes in the center of gravity reinforce the gravitational energy in the rotation of : the primary spinning means (12); the triangular tube (T) then functions like that of the magnetic rotating means in providing the additional energy for the spinning of the primary spinning means (12). ;

The triangular tube (T) also may serve the purpose of the magnetic rotating means i (13) whether the spinning means (12) is intact or in whole or no variation as shown in ;

Figure 1, or the primary spinning means (12) may consist only of the triangular tube M ] together with the driver (D) or with the other weights. 1 I

In one aspect of the invention, the operation of the apparatus using the magnetic rotating means type A, which is composed of natural or permanent magnets, includes the following steps:

The initial step in the operation, the magnetic rotating means (13) should match with the capacity of the apparatus, in use or attached to shaft, placed in a stop position wherein the outer portion of the magnetic rotating means (13) is placed in backwards position or slide out of the inner portion. In this position where the outer portion is slide out, the primary spinning means (12) is in stop position and not functioning.

While the primary spinning means (12) is spinning or rotating together with the shaft (11), and the generator (14) attached to the shaft, the outer portion of the magnetic rotating means (13) is made to slide in or pushed forward to the inner portion fixedly attached to the shaft (11) for the magnetic rotating means (13) to function.

The repulsion or attraction between like and unlike poles in magnets cause the inner portion of the magnetic rotating means (13), which is attached to the shaft, to spin or rotate. In the process, the magnetic rotating means (13) delivers or imparts the rotating force to the shaft and to the primary spinning means (12), and at this point in time, the magnetic rotating means (13) reinforces and helps the shaft (11) and the primary spinning means (12) in the spinning or rotation process and simultaneously at this stage the starter or the starting means (16) is switched off. In the process, and at this moment, the reinforcing driving force due to gravitational energy is transferred from the starter or the starting means (16) to the magnetic rotating means (13) powered by the magnetic energy from the natural or permanent magnets. The spinning of the shaft (11) together with the primary spinning means (12) powered and reinforced by both the gravitational and magnetic energies, produce acceleration to the point wherein the invention machine reaches the required constant speed and the desired spinning velocity needed by the attached generator (14) to produce the 220 volts (or 110 volts as the case may be) of electricity.

While the shaft (11), primary spinning means (12) and the magnetic rotating means ; are spinning or rotating and working together to attain the desired resuit, which is to drive the generator (14) to produce electricity, the functional generator (14) attached to the shaft : is also simultaneously spinning and working to produce electricity. It may happen that a

Clutch-like part may be provided in the structure or invention machine to loosen or tighten the belt for the spinner to spin in full swing before running the generator in the starting operation; however, this is not anymore provided in the drawing considering that this is i i optional and a clutch or cutch-like structure or part is a common one especially in automobiles.

The generator (14) producing electricity, reaching up to 220 volts, is also charging the battery or means for storing electricity (15) for the electricity needed by the starter or the starting means (16) for the succeeding initial or starting operations of the invention machine. To stop the operation of the invention machine, the outer portion of the magnetic spinner (13) is pulled away from the inner portion or the brake (17) attached to the shaft (11) is stepped on.

In another aspect of the invention, the operation using the type B magnetic rotating means (13), which is composed of the combination of the electromagnets and natural or permanent magnets, is as follows:

The shaft (11), including the primary spinning means (12), magnetic rotating means (13) and the generator (14) are made to spin together in the initial or starting operation powered by gravity and reinforced by the power in the starter or the starting means (16) until the generator (14) produces the electricity (220 volts or 110 volts as the case maybe) enough to power and let the magnetic rotating means (13) function or work.

The motion in the spinning or rotation process of the shaft (11) together with the spinning means (12) produce an acceleration to the point that it reaches the needed constant speed and the desired spinning velocity needed by the attached generator (14) to produce the 220 volts of electricity (or 110 volts as the case maybe).

Reaching the desired spinning velocity is also made possible with the belts and pulleys or chain or gears attached to the shaft which are of different lengths and sizes or diameters used for increasing or decreasing the spinning velocity (as shown in Figures 3, 7, 10, 11). In full motion and at the moment the generator (14) is already producing enough electricity to power the magnetic rotating means (13), the said magnetic rotating ; means (13) is switched on utilising the electricity produced by the generator (14) and simultaneously, the starter or the starting means (16) is switch off.

However, in the initial or starting operation for bigger capacity, power from outside source may be needed to help spin the magnetic rotating means (13) when the attached generator (14) fails to provide the necessary or needed energy for said magnetic rotating means to spin. Similarly, when the generator (14) is already producing the needed ; electricity to power the magnetic rotating means (13), and it is already functioning due to the electricity coming from the generator (14), the outside source of electricity is cut off.

In the process, and at this moment, the reinforcing driving force or energy for the gravitational energy in running the apparatus has been transferred from the starter or the starting means (16) to the magnetic rotating means (13) which is now switched on or powered by the electricity from the generator (14).

For smaller capacity apparatus, the magnetic rotating means (13) may require a lower voltage and may get its power from the electrical energy stored in a battery or means for storing electricity (15). The apparatus may produce 220 volts but the magnetic rotating means (13) needs only 12 or 24 volts and in this situation the magnetic rotating means (13) may be powered by the stored energy in the battery or means for storing electricity (15) or the electrical energy produced by the attached generator (14) that may power the magnetic rotating means (13) passes on through the battery or means for storing electricity (1 5).

When the magnetic rotating means (13) is switch on to the electricity produced by ; the generator (14), the outer portion of the magnetic rotating means (13) which are electromagnets, possesses the magnetic energy as they become magnets. With the attraction or repulsion between like and unlike poles in magnets cause the inner portion of the magnetic rotating means (13) which is attached to the shaft to spins or rotates. At this point, the magnetic rotating means (13) delivers the rotating force to the shaft (11) and helps the shaft (11) spin or rotate including the primary spinning means (12).

In like manner, when the magnetic rotating means (13) is switched on and powered with the electricity from the battery or means for storing electricity, also the outer portion of the magnetic rotating means (13), which are electromagnets, creates polarity with the natural or permanent magnets at the inner portion of the magnetic rotating means (13) and let the inner portion of the magnetic rotating means (13) which are attached to the shaft (11) to spin or rotate. In the same manner, at this moment the magnetic rotating means (13) delivers the rotating force to the shaft (11) and helps the shaft (11) to spin or rotate including the primary spinning means (12). In the process, and at this moment, the reinforcing driving force or energy for the gravitational energy in running the apparatus has been transferred from the starter or starting means (16) to the magnetic rotating means (13) which is now powered by the electricity from the generator (14) through the battery or means for storing electricity (15). In the process, electricity is generated through the working or functioning generator (14) that continuously produces electricity and powers the magnetic rotating means (13). In effect, and in the process, the magnetic rotating means (13) also continuously delivers the rotating force to the shaft and to the spinning of the primary spinning means (12). In operation, the magnetic rotating means (13) continuously reinforces the gravitational energy that powers for the continuing operation in the production of electricity.

Part of the electricity produced, that ranges from 5 percent to 10 percent, is being used to power the magnetic rotating means (13).

The flow of the electric current can be monitored through suitable gauges (13A, 14A, 15A) installed in the system.

To stop the operation, the supply and flow of the electrical energy to the magnetic rotating means (13) is cut off through the switching off of the switch (19A) installed thereof and step on the brake (17) attached to the shaft (11).

In yet another aspect of the invention, the operation of the invention machine for the production of electricity using the type C magnetic rotating means (13), which is composed entirely of electromagnets, is more or less similar to the operation using the type B magnetic rotating means (13). This type of magnetic rotating means (13) is usually used ; with the bigger capacity apparatus.

The shaft (11), including the primary spinning means (12), magnetic rotating means (13) and the generator (14) are made to spin, rotate, function or work together in the initial or starting operation of the invention machine powered by the gravity and reinforced by the power in the starter or the starting means (16) until the generator (14) produces the electricity (220 volts or 110 volts as the case maybe) enough to power and let the magnetic rotating means (13) function or work. j

The motion in the spinning or rotation process of the shaft (11) together with the spinning means (12) produce an acceleration to the point wherein the invention machine reaches the needed constant speed and the desired revolution per minute (RPM) needed by the attached generator (14) to produce the 220 volts of electricity (or 110 volts as the case maybe). }

This type of magnetic rotating means (13), which is the electric motor, spins or : rotate whenever is electricity is supplied or switch on to electricity.

I

When this type of magnetic rotating means (13), which is an electric motor, is switch on to the electricity produced by the generator (14), and simultaneously the starter or the starting means (16) is switch off, the source of electrical energy for the magnetic : rotating means(13) has been transferred to the generator (14). :

However, in the initial operation for bigger capacity, the apparatus may get its power from outside source to help spin the magnetic rotating means (13) when the :

attached generator (14) fails to provide the necessary or needed energy for magnetic rotating means (13) to spin. Similarly, when the generator (14) is already producing the needed electricity to power the magnetic rotating means (13), and the magnetic rotating means (13) is already functioning with the electricity from the generator (14), the outside source of electricity is cut off.

For smaller capacity apparatus, the magnetic rotating means (13) which may require a lower voltage may get its power from the electrical energy stored in the battery.

The apparatus may produce 220 volts but the magnetic rotating means (13) needs only 12 or 24 volts and in this situation it may be powered with the stored energy in the battery or means for storing electricity (15) or the electrical energy produced by the attached generator (14) that may power the magnetic rotating (13) passes on through the battery or means for storing electricity (15).

While the magnetic rotating means (13) is spinning it delivers or impart the rotating force to the belts and pulley installed (as shown in figure 3) as connection to the shaft (11), and eventually the rotating force is delivered to the shaft (13). At this point in time the magnetic rotating means (13) delivers the rotating force to the shaft (1 1), through the belts and pulleys, and help the shaft (11) spin or rotate including the primary spinning means (12). ;

In like manner, when the magnetic rotating means (13) is spinning while switched on and powered with the electricity from the battery, the magnetic rotating means (13) also ; imparts or delivers the rotating force to the shaft (11) and to the primary spinning means (12) through the belts and pulleys installed in the invention machine serving as connection from the magnetic spinner (13) to the shaft (11) as shown in Figure 3. In the same manner, the magnetic rotating means (13) delivers the rotating force to the shaft (11) and helps the shaft (11) to spin or rotate including the primary spinning means (12). In the process, the reinforcing driving force or energy for the gravitational energy in running the invention machine has also been transferred from the starter or the starting means (16) to : the magnetic rotating means (13) which is now powered by the electricity from the generator (14) through the battery or means for storing electricity (15).

In the process, the invention machine generates or produces electricity through the :

working or functioning generator (14) that continuously produces electricity and powers magnetic rotating means (13). In effect, and in the process, the magnetic rotating means (13) also continuously delivers the rotating force to the shaft (11) and to the spinning of the primary spinning means (12). In operation, the magnetic rotating means (13) continuously reinforces the gravitational energy that powers for the continuing operation of the invention machine in the production of electricity. ;

Part of the electricity produced which ranges from 10 percent to 20 percent are being used to power the functioning of the magnetic rotating means (13).

The flow of the electric current is being monitored through the gauges (13A, 14A, : 15A) installed in the system. :

To stop the operation of the apparatus, the supply and flow of the electrical energy to the magnetic rotating means (13) is cut off through the switching off of the switch (19A) : installed for the magnetic rotating means (13) and step on the brake (17) attached to the ; shaft (11).

In yet another aspect of the invention, the triangular tube (T) is used without the magnetic rotating means (13). As the driver (D) is released from its initial position, the fluid inside the triangular tube flows in the same direction as the rotation of the driver (D). The : change in the center of gravity caused by the flowing of fluid inside the triangular tube provides the additional rotational force that allows the primary spinning means (12) to continuously rotate without slowing down.

In the process of the falling and rising of the driver (D) reinforced by the triangular tube (T) changing in position, delivers the rotating force to the shaft (11) and the primary : spinning means (12) which cause the rotation and spinning of the primary spinning means : (12).

When the triangular tube (T) is used instead of the magnetic rotating means (13), the operation may be started by just spinning the primary spinning means (12) with the generator (14).

In the same manner, at this moment the triangular tube (T) delivers the rotating : force to the shaft (11) and helps the shaft (11) to spin or rotate including the primary spinning means (12). In the process, and at this moment, the reinforcing driving force or energy for the gravitational energy in running the invention machine has been transferred from the starter or the starting means (16) to the triangular tube (T). :

With the spinning of the shaft (11) and the primary spinning means (12) imparts or delivers the rotating force to the generator (14) through the installed pulleys and belts (or maybe chain or gears) serving as the connection from the shaft to the generator (14). The generator (14) then, in the process, produces electricity.

In the process, the triangular tube (T) also continuously delivers the rotating force to the shaft (11) and to the spinning of the primary spinning means (12). In operation, the triangular tube (T) continuously reinforces the gravitational energy that powers for the continuing operation of the invention machine in the production of electricity. To stop the operation of the invention machine, the operator may disengage the gear or pulley and step on the brake (17) attached to the shaft (11).

Like that of the magnetic spinner type A, using the triangular tube (T) instead of the magnetic rotating means (13), or when the magnetic rotating means (13) is not anymore in use, all the electricity produced is for human consumption considering that triangular tube (T) does not use electricity for its functioning.

The flow of electric current is being monitored through the gauges (13A, 14A, 15A) installed in the system. ; 3
