ABSTRACT:
A system for rotating a drive mechanism which can be connected to an electrical generator or the like. The system (10) is particularly suitable for providing electrical power to a residence and includes a reservoir (14) for containing a volume of liquid such as water (16). Weight is applied to the upper surface of the liquid for forcing it downward. This liquid is discharged from the reservoir through a spout (36) which concentrates the discharged liquid into a stream which is directed against a drive mechanism (38) such as a turbine (40) for imparting rotational forces. The discharged water is received in a catch basin (50) from which it is then moved, as by pumping, back into the reservoir for a further cycle of operation.
