Title:
ENERGY CONVERSION APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/256155
Kind Code:
A2
Abstract:
An energy conversion apparatus 1 comprises: a liquid tank 11 in which a liquid 10 is stored; a plurality of gas-receiving parts 12 that are provided in the vertical direction inside the liquid tank 11 and are free to rotate or move vertically; a nozzle 13 that, inside the liquid tank 11, ejects compressed gas from below the lowest positioned gas-receiving part 12; a gas cylinder 14 that stores compressed gas serving as a primary energy source and feeds the compressed gas to the nozzle 13; an output means 3 that outputs kinetic energy of rotation or vertical movement as secondary energy to the exterior of the liquid tank 11, the kinetic energy being generated in the gas-receiving parts 12 by a buoyant force that the gas-receiving parts 12 generate as a result of receiving the compressed gas ejected from the nozzle 13; and a recovery device 4 that returns the gas from the liquid tank 11 to the gas cylinder 14.
