FIG. 1 illustrates a method for production of ecologically clean mechanical rotational energy and the general view of the device for its implementation; FIG. 2 shows an axial section A-A of the rotor 1 and the horizontal cutting plane of the camera.

Availability of clean mechanical energy of rotation due to the conversion of thermal energy of sea water due to the natural temperature difference between its surface and deep layers. Ocean and its seas are inexhaustible sources of energy. The average annual temperature of the surface waters of the ocean is 17.5 o C, and at the equator to 28 o C. The seasonal variations in temperature are observed to a depth of 100-150 m, and in the bottom layers is constant and is about 1.5 o C. Thus, the average difference heating temperature of the oceans of water between the surface and deep layers of 16.0 o C and a maximum of 26.5 o C (see. The Soviet encyclopedic dictionary, M. Soviet encyclopedia, 1987, pp. 920-921). This temperature difference of different layers allows the use of sea water thermal energy into mechanical energy converters using rotation and gravitational interaction hydrostatic buoyancy forces.

A method for producing clean mechanical rotational energy is that use submerged in seawater freely rotatably around the axis 0 the rotor 1, the rim of which uniformly circumferentially mounted associated with goods 2 and / or the floats 3 drives containing heat sensitive elements 4. one of the lateral sides of the rotor together with goods 2, floats 3 and the heat-sensitive elements 4 are arranged in the cooling zone, which is created by means of covering this part of the rotor chamber 5, at the top and bottom of which there are openings for the free passage of these goods, floats and heat-sensitive elements when the rotor rotates. The other side of the rotor is placed in a heating zone which surrounds the rotor is a surface layer of seawater. In the chamber 5 by a conduit 6 and using pump 7 is fed cold water from the deep layers of the reservoir. 7 The pump moves water from the pipe 6 to the chamber 5 in a direction close to the horizontal, but the rise of the water piped from its deep layers occurs due to hydrostatic pressure, as the pipeline is communicating vessels relative to the surrounding water. This minimizes the energy consumption for the rise of cold water from the deep layers of the rotor chamber. Using water with different temperatures in the heating and cooling zones, change the radial dimensions or shape of heat sensitive elements in their arrangement on opposite sides with respect to the vertical line passing through the axis 0 of the rotor and weights and floats move in mutually opposite radial directions. At the same time due to the effect on the weights and floats, respectively, gravity and buoyancy forces F in different directions and shoulder R 1 or R 2 of these forces about the axis 0 and passing through it vertically B-B, the rotor is removed from the equilibrium position and cause it to rotate under the influence of these forces F. When the rotor provide alternating sequential passage of heat-sensitive elements of the heating and cooling zones with a corresponding change in their thermal expansion and radial loads and movements of the floats in mutually opposite directions, whereby the rotation of the rotor is maintained constant. In connection with the inexhaustible possibilities of heat transfer between the surface and deep layers of the sea water is described a method of producing the mechanical energy of rotation will be carried out in almost perpetual motion mode, ie, provides mechanical energy without spending any fuel and material resources and with no negative environmental impact on the environment.

Said method of producing mechanical energy of rotation may be performed in an apparatus which is an exemplary implementation generally shown in Figures 1 and 2.

METHOD FOR PRODUCING ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY MECHANICAL ENERGY OF ROTATION AND DEVICE FOR B.F.KOCHETKOVA

Device for obtaining clean energy comprises mechanical rotation completely immersed in the upper rotor 1 seawater mounted freely rotatably about an axis 0. rotor rim mounted circumferentially uniformly associated with goods 2 and / or 3 floats drives which contain heat-sensitive elements in the form of, for example, termobimetallicheskih plates 4, each of which is radially fixed at one end to the rim of the rotor, while the other free end of which is attached perpendicularly to the plate plane of the carrier rod 8, the ends of which are directed along the axis of the rotor 0-0 to opposite sides of the plate. Each end of the rod 8 is attached or load, or float 3, respectively placing them all on one side of the rotor plane perpendicular to its axis. With the same plane aligned plane heat sensitive plates. One of the sides on the circumference of the rotor is fenced off from the environment by means of curved walls along the rim of the rotor, forming a flow chamber 5 into upper and lower parts of which are made openings for the free passage of heat-sensitive elements 4 and two floats of goods when the rotor 3 rotates. The upper part of the chamber 5 by means of pump 9 and pipe 7 connected to a conduit 6 which freely communicates at its lower part with cold deep sea water layers, and the upper portion thereof is located above the seawater level, and does not communicate with it. Compound 9 with nozzle chamber 5 is arranged to feed water into its cavity in a direction excluding a suction chamber surrounding the chamber of warm water from the surface soil. In the specific case shown in Figure 1, this is achieved by the direction of water jet from the nozzle 9 into the cavity chamber 5 downwards along the rotor radius. The walls of the conduit 6 is made of a material with low thermal conductivity and / or cover are thermally insulated. The entire device is generally composed of a rotor 1, a camera 5, line 6, pump, and other associated parts are connected by bearing elements 10 (beams, rods, wires, etc..) With a base in the form of pontoons 11, which is held in place by anchors, or installed by means of bearings (not shown) on the subgrade. The rotor shaft 12 may be connected to an electric generator. Zone cooling device is reduced in the cavity chamber 5 and heating zone surrounding the rotor surface layer of seawater.

Device for obtaining clean mechanical energy of rotation is as follows.

As an initial condition is assumed that the rotor 1 is located in the surface layer of sea water at the same temperature T 2 higher than T 1, the temperature of water in the deep layers of it, where is placed the lower extremity of the pipe 6. To start operation of the device is actuated by an external energy source pump 7, bilge water from the top of the pipeline. Water moves with the horizontal pipe 9, so the energy cost of its movement will be minimal. The pipeline opened in its lower part, and verhnyayaego part is above the water level, so it is communicating vessels to the surrounding water. It is known that in the communicating vessels fluid levels are set at the same height without energy input from external sources (see. Physical Encyclopedic Dictionary, M. Soviet Encyclopedia, 1984, p. 699). In this connection, when the pump 7 in the pipe by the hydrostatic pressure of the surrounding water there is upward flow of low-temperature water from its underlying layers. After completion of this cold water conduit with a pump, it will be fed into the chamber 5 and to move into its cavity downwards, as having a larger specific gravity compared to the surrounding chamber warmer water from its surface layer. When this heat-sensitive elements in the form of plates 4 arranged on the rotor rim 1 on opposite sides of the vertical B-B will be in the water with different temperatures T 1 and T within the chamber 2 outside the chamber. This will result in this case (Figure 2) to the bending of plates located within the chamber and outside the chamber in opposite directions from the respective moving loads 2 and 3 floats radially. 2 loads within the chamber will be spaced from the axis 0 of the rotor at a greater distance R 2 as compared with a distance R 1 from the axis of the float chamber 3. Outside the warmer water in the surface layer (1 and 2 on the left of the vertical axis 0 and B B) due to the bending heat-sensitive plates in the opposite direction floats will be at a greater distance from the axis R 2 0 and loads - at a smaller distance R 1. These distances R 2 and R 1 are the forces F shoulders action for goods and floats creating torques R F 2 and R F 1 0 relative to the axis of the rotor. To simplify the analysis it is assumed that gravity forces F and F buoyant forces, acting respectively on floats and weights are equal in magnitude. At the same time, these forces are directed oppositely. A pair of goods located horizontally on opposite sides of the axis 0, will total torque FR 1 R 2 F, directed clockwise. Similarly, a pair of floats will create the same total torque FR 1 R 2 F in the same direction. Floats and other loads are exerted on the rotor in a similar manner. Under the influence of the torques output from the rotor position of equilibrium and is driven to rotate, and rotational movement is maintained constant due to the different water temperature in the chamber 5 and beyond. This takes into account that the change in temperature termobimetallicheskih plates 4 in the water is fast, so the weights and floats, located on opposite sides of the vertical B-B, when the rotor rotates continuously will maintain his position of non-equilibrium. For coherence time change of curvature of plates and the passage of the rotor rotation B-B vertical, the camera may be shifted circumferentially by a certain angle in a direction opposite to the rotation of the rotor that is shown in Figure 1. With the start of rotation of the rotor it actuates the pump 7, the device ceases to consume power from the outside and is itself a source of rotational mechanical energy. Placement of heat sensitive plates in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the rotor 0-0, completely or largely eliminate bending stresses on the plates under the influence of the above forces F at the location of plates on or near horizontally, when these forces create the greatest value for torques that It increases the load capacity of the device. With the start of operation of the rotor unit is almost perpetual motion mode, because it does not consume any energy resources, constantly produces clean mechanical energy of rotation due to the inexhaustible energy of the oceans.
