Sjack Abeling Gravity Wheel and the Worlds first Weight Power Plant

[AquariuZ]

(cont)


         An installation 1 for the conversion of gravitational energy, consists of two parallel
      movable carriers 2 which rotate around a joint axle line A with each having a number of weights
15      3 attached in the rotational path (fig. 1) These weights 3 are movable in a radial direction in
      relation to axle line A. The conversion unit 1 contains collaborating materials 4 to guide the radial
      displacement of weights 3. These guiding materials 4, which will be discussed in detail hereafter,
20      are incorporated in side plates 5, which are located on the sides of each carrier 2 parallel to the
      plane of the rotational movement.

      In the shown example both carriers 2 are fixed against rotation on the pertruding axle 6, which
25      is housed in a baring in the openings 7 in the side plates 5. This axle 6 could be attached to a
      generator, through which the output of unit 1 would be converted to e.g. electrical energy. The
      carriers 2 and the side plates 5 shown in this example are made out of glass, but other materials
30      with minimal friction like metals could be used.

Stuck the translation + images up as a fairly ropey Google doc, might do until the more expert versions are available:

Oops just checked and that's a proper mess, best ignored. Not sure what I did there.

This seems to more or less work:

         Every carrier 2 has the appearance of a disc, in which for every weight 3 a radially



                  (7)
      directed guidance track 8 is formed (fig.  2). To facilitate the outward hurling of weights 3 the
      guiding tracks at least have on their end 9 which are furthest from axle 6 a track segment which
5      is curved. The curvature is pointed towards the rotational direction of carrier 2. In the shown
      example the guiding tracks even have a smooth curvature over their entire lenght.

Great work!

Can you rotate the imiges who stand sideways now?
