ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a new method of obtaining energy without using fuels. Basically the device consists of a conveyor belt that contains a continuous arrangement of cells or pockets that are open in the outward direction perpendicular to it's motion. The conveyor belt is set in motion by the effect of natural water flow or currents upon the hinged flaps that are attached to it. The cells when pointed in a downward direction, will carry air down to great depths and release the air at the point at which the belt turns beneath the water and when the cells are pointed in an upward direction. This highly compressed air can then be captured in a container and the stored energy thusly obtained can be used by gradually releasing it for the purpose of driving a turbine wheel.
