DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

In a following description, reference is made to the accompanying drawings, which form a part hereof, and in which is shown by way of illustration a specific example in which the invention may be practiced. It is to be understood that other embodiments may be utilized and structural changes may be made without departing from the scope of the embodiments.


General Overview:

It should be noted that the descriptions that follow, for example, in terms of a pendulum powered energy and water devices and method is described for illustrative purposes and the underlying system can apply to any number and multiple types pendulums, compressors, condensers and other components of a pendulum powered energy and water devices and method. In one embodiment, the pendulum can be configured using a horizontal ring dynamic compressor. In one embodiment, the pendulum can be configured using a vertical ring dynamic compressor. The pendulum powered energy and water devices and method can be configured to include a building installation and can be configured to include a portable container installation using the embodiments.


The world is in search of solutions to nagging problems that in some cases have been haunting mankind throughout its history. Clean renewable energy that is economical and dependable in every location without depleting natural resources and do not pollute the air we breathe. Water that can sustainably be produced in quantities that support agriculture and domestic needs without stressing natural resources including aquifers and rivers. Cost effective reduction of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere and utilizing those sequestered gases in beneficial non-release processes.


The pendulum powered energy and water devices and method produces a constant motive force to drive electric generators 24 hours a day that is self-contained, sustainable and independent of the use of greenhouse emitting fuels and uncontrollable natural conditions including solar and wind.


The pendulum powered energy and water devices and method is a scalable system that generates clean renewable electricity without the use of fossil fuels, solar or wind, produces water is scalable quantities to deliver untreated water for agricultural, commercial and industrial uses and deliver treated potable water for domestic uses, and sequesters carbon dioxide from the ambient air for uses in non-release processes including agricultural and industrial processes. The small footprint and independence from fuels and natural conditions of pendulum powered energy and water devices and method allows installations at any location including within parking garages, interior of building and other locations not exposed to wind, solar and ambient conditions.


The pendulum powered energy and water devices and method utilizes the power generated by gravity in a pendulum application to compress air for use in other integral systems to compress extensive quantities of air to drive the operation of electric generators. The innovative dynamic compressor designs have few moving parts which reduces maintenance, and reduces the amount of power needed to compress air. Air supplied to the compressors is processed through condensers to condense water vapor (humidity) from the ambient air and collect the liquid water for additional filtration and treatment processing for domestic and other uses. The air once compressed is processed for sequestration of carbon dioxide. The sequestered carbon dioxide is concentrated and collected in removable vessels for delivery to other facilities for non-release applications that include for example agriculture and carbon fiber production.


Gravitational oscillation of a pendulum is diminished by friction at the pivot point and aerodynamic drag of the pendulum bob movement through the surrounding air. The pendulum loses force on each swing through the friction and drag dampening of the swing distance.


The pendulum powered energy and water devices and method includes at least one anti-dampening apparatus to add additional oscillation force to counter-act the friction and drag reduction in force. This allows the pendulum to maintain a constant magnitude of oscillation.


The pendulum powered energy and water devices and method compressed air is pressure regulated from the higher compression psi to a lower working psi for operation of the electric generators. The decompression to a lower pressure lowers the temperature of the compressed air. A chiller apparatus uses the lowered temperature to process coils with cooled fluid to the condenser units and along with blower units lowers the temperature of the air being processed below the dew point and condenses the water vapor into a liquid.


Treatment processes filter and treat the liquid water to potable quality standards for delivery of domestic water. Untreated water is filtered and available for delivery to farm fields, hydroponic cultivation, industrial processing and refilling of depleted reservoirs and aquifers.


The scalability of the pendulum powered energy and water devices and method allows deliveries of electricity in ranges of 30 kW to over 150 MW. Water deliveries range from 1 acre foot per year to over 30,000 acre feet per year.


The pendulum powered energy and water devices and method portable container installation can be used in multiple applications. The pendulum powered energy and water devices and method portable container installation can be alternatively described herein as a pendulum power and water container unit. The pendulum power and water container unit can easily be trucked or shipped to remote sites to serve applications including remote villages, embassy compounds, disaster relief services, mobile military units, fire-fighting efforts and other venues where space and time are in short supply. The pendulum power and water container unit can begin supplying electricity and water within the hour of delivery. The pendulum power and water container unit can be built quickly and available in large numbers.


Disaster relief power and water can be quickly delivered to the hard hit area where power lines are down and water supplies disrupted or contaminated. A fleet of trucks with pendulum power and water container units can deliver immediate sources of clean power and water to the affected populations and refugee centers to support the medical and humanitarian aid with a constant supply of electricity for lighting, cooking, medical equipment, recharging cell phones. Clean treated potable water will be readily available to further the rescue efforts.


Trucks with pendulum power and water container units can circulate within the effected neighborhoods to make power and water available to those staying in their homes. When utility workers get sections of power lines standing and safely connected the pendulum power and water container units can be used to energize those sections of power lines until normal service is reestablished.


The planned siting of the pendulum powered energy and water devices and method installation is to avoid a large central facility in favor of smaller facilities distributed throughout a region. The reason is to avoid the need for larger water mains for distribution of the water produced and the use of transmission lines to distribute the electricity. The water production can be sized to allow feeding the treated potable water directly into adjacent existing water mains. The testing of the water quality will conform to local water agency specifications or better. This will eliminate any additional pumping cost and construction of new water lines from distant water sources.


Likewise production of electricity can be sized to local substation capacities and distribution circuit voltages and amperage capacities. An interconnection to those local lines can eliminate further stressing aging transmission lines, long distance energy losses and/or the construction cost of new transmission lines. In addition with both water and electricity the distributed generation of new water and electricity sources will help prevent regional outages and blackouts and lengthy disruptions in water deliveries due to water main breaks.


The pendulum powered energy and water devices and method can be used for a solution to droughts. Using the California drought for an example, The California State Water Resources Control Board in the June 2014-July 2015 Urban Water Supplier Report shows production of water by local water agencies and deliveries to populations in their hydrologic regions have fallen approximately 14% from the previous year. A Pacific Institute August 2015 report shows a 30% drop in water deliveries for agriculture from 2005 to 2013.


The economic impact of this extended drought is costing California thousands of jobs, lost production in agriculture and other industries, major changes in the California life style and consuming State resources for conservation efforts that could certainly be of help in other areas.


This has proven to be one of the worst droughts suffered in the State. But it is not the first nor will it be the last. As populations rise we have seen, here to now taken for granted, aquifers and rivers depleted in some cases to a point of no return. Heroic efforts are being carried out to prevent infiltration of seawater into coastal aquifers. At the current rates of surface and ground water withdrawals it will take abnormally high rainfall and snow pack over decades to produce annual water needs and at the same time replenish the depleted resources. Given the historical climate data that is unlikely.


The pendulum powered energy and water devices and method is a new water source that does not pump surface or ground water. Pendulum powered energy and water devices and method can amply meet current needs and allow Mother Nature to work her magic to replenish the natural water resources. Pendulum powered energy and water devices and method can even be of aid to Mother Nature. For one example out of hundreds, Castaic Lake located in Los Angeles County has a maximum capacity of 320,000 acre-feet. As of Sep. 15, 2014 it was only 38 percent full. The drought depleted 198,400 acre foot of stored water. This depletion could be replenished in less than 7 years with the use of a pendulum powered energy and water devices and method unit producing 30,000 acre feet a year in less time with multiple installations. Restrictions on recreational fishing, boating and other uses could be lifted and the fear of a repeat in another drought would be wiped away.


Over time other lakes and reservoirs can be refilled using pendulum powered energy and water devices. Rivers again will be able to follow normal flows. Hydroelectric dams will have enough water to generate electricity. Agricultural and livestock production regions will be able to grow, harvest and raise livestock without losing crops and animals due to a lack of water. Homeowners will be able to maintain their manicured landscaping, fill their swimming pools and play golf on green grass. Regions around the world will be able to escape the constant water problems that have plagued those region though out time and have even caused “Water Wars”.


The pendulum powered energy and water devices and method can end current droughts and prevent the disastrous results of future droughts. The pendulum powered energy and water devices and method can quickly allow regions to reduce costly and greenhouse gas emitting power production and reach their goals of greater renewable energy levels.



FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of an overview flow chart of pendulum powered energy and water devices and method of one embodiment. FIG. 1 shows a process step operating at least one pendulum module coupled with at least one anti-dampening module 100. The at least one pendulum module back and forth oscillation will lose gravity energy due to aerodynamic drag and pivot friction. The at least one anti-dampening module is used to impart an energy impulse equal to the drag and friction energy loss to maintain a constant oscillation.


The at least one pendulum module oscillation drives a pendulum connection rod for operating at least one pendulum driven dynamic compressor module 104. The pendulum connection rod is coupled to a pendulum driven dynamic compressor module pulley offset cam to rotate a pendulum driven pulley for operating at least one pendulum driven dynamic compressor module 104. The pendulum pulley transfers rotation to at least one pendulum driven dynamic compressor module. The rotation of the at least one pendulum driven dynamic compressor drives dewatered ambient air into at least one receiving inlet of a first cross-section area of a pendulum driven dynamic compressor compression chamber. The pendulum driven dynamic compressor compression chamber is tampered to a lesser second cross-section area outlet coupled to a compressed air collection pipe. The tampering of the compression chamber reduces the volume of incoming dewatered ambient air thereby compressing the air to a greater pressure. The compressed air flows through the compressed air collection pipe for storing compressed air 140 into a storage module. The outlet flow of the compressed air creates a vacuum that draws dewatered ambient air into a pendulum driven dynamic compressor module intake cabinet. The dewatered ambient air has been processed in steps including intaking and filtering ambient air 110 using at least one chiller water vapor condensation module 120 in a process for dewatering compressor intake air 112. Condensed water using at least one chiller water vapor condensation module 120 can be used in distributing untreated liquid water 122. Treating condensed liquid water 124 can produce potable water for distributing treated liquid water 126. Scrubbing carbon dioxide from compressed air 130 reduces the levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and storing scrubbed carbon dioxide 132 allows using stored carbon dioxide in non-release applications 134. Storing compressed air 140 then discharging compressed air 142 including regulating discharged compressed air pressure 144 can be used for example for operating at least one compressed air driven piston electric generator module 150. Electrical panels and equipment is used for distributing generated electricity using at least one interconnection module 152 of one embodiment of the present invention.
