ABSTRACT:
A water driven engine comprising a frame and two vertical rotors which are rotatably mounted in the frame. The water drive engine is mounted in a stream of water. If desired the engine may be mounted in a low dam. The blades of the vertical rotors overlap. A water diverter is centrally mounted in front of the rotors so as to divide the stream of water and divert the water onto the outer blades of the rotors. The water diversion produced contradirectional rotation of the rotors, i.e., one rotor rotates clockwise and the remaining rotor rotates counterclockwise. The contradirectional rotating rotors are mechanically joined to an energy system and to each other so as to be substantially self-timing and torque-free.
