Free energy gravity motor: Pinwheel Generator

[Russell Lee]

I would like to present the correct address for the free energy gravity motor known as the Pinwheel Generator.  It is   www.squidoo.com/pinwheelgenerator .

Hi Russell.

could you make an animated function of how this is supposed to work?

I don't think this will work. If weight of the lowest ball can shove most of the liquid
into the reservoir above it, then the weight of that ball will then have to be lifted over
a much longer lever arm then the upper ball. In effect, it will be equivalent to an
overbalanced wheel running in reverse.

MS.  I'm not sure you are getting the functioning of this mechanism.  When the bottom weight ball arrives at the bottom of it's cylinder, most all of the liquid that was in the bottom cylinder has been pressed into the upper cylinder.  As the weight of the bottom ball presses down on the unlocking spring arm it loads that spring with it's weights worth of energy.  When it unlocks the mechanism, the spring arm's energy pushes the bottom cylinder away to rotate the bottom cylinder away and to the left.  At the same time, because there is two times as much weight in the full right-side cylinder with the liquid AND the ball as there is in it's opposite empty left-side cylinder, it's weight also contributes to rotating the mechanism ONLY 90 DEGREES to where the former right side cylinder is now at the bottom position (with it's weight ball now descending to push it's liquid up to it's opposite empty upper cylinder).  Also, as the spring are begins to push out the now liquid empty bottom cylinder, as the rotation begins, as the mechanism starts to rotate, the weight in the full upper cylinder now also contributes to rotate the whole mechanism-it being twice the weight of the empty bottom cylinder now being pushed out.  So there are three forces rotating the mechanism just 90 degrees: 1) The spring arm's energy. 2) The weight of the full right-side cylinder. 3) The weight of the full upper cylinder.  All against the empty bottom cylinder, and all just rotating the mechanism 90 degrees.   -Russ

Cuttingedge,  I wish I could, I'm don't know enough about computers to be able to do that.  Sorry.    Russ
