Abstract
A gravity engine 10 has at least two identical drums 12, 14 attached to a horizontal shaft 20 rotatably supported by a frame 22, 24. A sequence valve 32 controls a sequence of liquid movements between the drums 12, 14, a boiler 30 and a condenser 28. In a first range of angular movement, the boiler 30 is attached to whatever drum 12, 14 is lower and the condenser 28 is coupled to whatever drum is higher for the boiler 30 pressure to force transfer of liquid to the higher drum. The weight of liquid in the higher drum 12, 14 causes, during a second range of angular movement, rotation of the shaft 20. The resulting rotary motion may be coupled to rotate electrical generators, irrigation wheels or pumps. The boiler can be heated by ground heat, direct solar heat, solar panels and burning waste materials. The condenser can employ water cooling, heat radiation cooling, convection in air and cooling by contact with soil.
