ABSTRACT:
Described herein is a device for converting such forms of mechanical energy that comprise even slow and random movements, such as the waves of the sea, the flow of a river, the blowing of the wind, and the thermal expansion caused by the radiation of the sun, to a more useful form of high-speed rotation. The device comprises a shaft member rotatable in one direction only in relation to a frame and comprising a crank. A longitudinal actuating member is at one end connected to the shaft member and arranged to rotate the shaft member by means of its movements in relation to the frame. A spring connected at one end to the frame and at the other end to the crank stores the potential energy caused by the movements of the actuating member and releases it by causing the crank to turn the shaft member into rotation when the crank has passed a dead point determined by the actuating direction of the spring.
