ABSTRACT:
A current-driven power generating apparatus including a water wheel having a transversely extending axle on which are fixedly mounted a plurality of paddles. Also mounted on the axially outer ends of this axle are gears. The water wheel is anchored against downstream movement by guide wires attached at one end to the axle and at the other end to an anchor post disposed upstream of the water wheel. The anchor post has a transversely extending shaft rotatably mounted therein containing two pairs of gears on its axially outer ends. Drive chains are mounted on the gears on the axle and on one pair of gears on the shaft. Parallel to the shaft in the anchor post is a horizontally extending power shaft connected at one end to a generator and having a pair of gears mounted at its other end. The gears on the power shaft are in meshed contact with the second pair of gears on the shaft mounted in the anchor post. Rotation of the water wheel drives the drive chain and thereby causes rotation of the shaft in the anchor post. Rotation of this shaft causes rotation of the power shaft.
