Solid wheel discs or sprocket wheels are used, with floaters of any shape or size which are attached to the outside of the wheels, which will turn and re-enter the lower portion of the water tank to produce energy * The discs or spokes can be enlarged to increase power or additional discs can be added to produce an unlimited source of power The floaters enter the lower part of the water tank and create an upward thrust which turns the wheel and the shaft 'The Heaters must enter the water several degrees past the center of the shaft in order to create the upward thrust The floaters must enter the tank at staggered intervals to reduce the required power for re- entry A variation of floatation devices can be used (e. g. cork, air, Styrofoam, and gases). It is recommended to use light weight materials in the construction of this device 'To preserve space the units can be placed side by side In smaller units the water can be substituted with other liquid forms 'The most critical part of this device is the re-entry of the floaters, which must be precisely timed and water proof.
Figure 4-5 This unit works on the same principle as figure 1-3 with the difference being: 'It works on a chain or rubberized conveyor belt on which the floaters are attached. A larger amount of floaters can be used for greater power This unit needs less space, but greater depth for a much longer travel of the floaters which creates more power Larger sprockets on the top and bottom are needed to allow the floaters to re-enter the water.
Re-entry of the floaters must be water proof as in figure 1-3.
