Specification

3. Description:
This invention relates to a wind operated Hydro Pump that is fixed to the delivery end of a pipe line to generate additional thrust to the water emanating from a spout. Obviously, the efficiency of any turbo generator 3, as described in the Provisional and Complete specification Patent application no: 630 /CHE / 2004 depends on the thrust of the water jet, that impinges on the vanes of the said turbo generator, to generate maximum quantum of hydro electricity.
Now, more particularly, this invention is concerned with generating electric energy by harnessing the spent energy emanating from the spout end of domestic / irrigation pump sets, canals, fountains and waterfalls. Presently, the thrust of the spent force largely depends on a number of parameters, a few being (a) the quantum of water available in the pipe line, at that point of time, to work this invention efficiently (b) the diameter of the spout end and (c) the gradient of water flow to take advantage of the gravitational force and momentum.
The object of this invention is to overcome all the afore said drawbacks and variables by increasing the thrust of the water jet emanating from the spout of a pipe line by a mechanical device and thus increase the overall efficiency of the turbo generator 3 seen in figures 3, 4 & 5.
The object of this invention is achieved by fixing a hydro pump 9 or an apparatus 20 to the spout of delivery pipe 1, depending on the embodiment where they are to be used, so as to derive maximum efficiency.



It is a known fact that the wind condition near any water source, be it dams, canals, fountains and waterfalls, is turbulent, gusty and windy. This naturally available and environment friendly force Is utilized to drive the fan connected to a hydro pump. Thus, the force of the thrust, at the spout end, Is multiplied many fold to increase the overall efficiency of the said turbo generator 3 despite the aforementioned drawbacks and variables.
From the foregoing It is obvious that the two (hydro pump 9 and turbo generator 3) are mutually dependent. Hence, they can be combined to constitute a single "apparatus" and also pertain to a SINGLE INVENTION relating to patent application no: 630 / CHE / 2004.
For better understanding of this invention refer fig: 4, 5 & 6.
HERE:
FIG 4 : Shows the apparatus 20.
FIG 5 : Shows the apparatus 20 using the kinetic energy of waterfalls 12 to generate hydro electricity.
FIGS : Shows apparatus 20 fitted to irrigation canal 22.
Now, for detailed description of this invention with reference to the accompanying drawings (1, 2, 3,4, 5 & 6)
FIG 4 : Shows the apparatus 20 comprising of hydro pump 9 and turbo generator 3. Pressure and thrust of the water coming into the hydro pump 9, through the delivery pipe 1, is multiplied many fold by the rotary motion of the wind blades 10. Now, the water coming out through the constricted spout 7 is in the form of water jet 15.


This, water jet 15, is made to impinge on the vanes 4 of the turbo generator 3 to produce hydro electricity or where the hydro pump (HP) 9 alone is fitted to the delivery pipe spout 1, it's water jet 15 is directed into a separate penstock 5 (see fig: 3) to activate the turbo generator 3 therein.
REFER FIG 5:
Here, the waterfalls 12, at the end of its visual splendor is directed to fall into a trough 11 which opens into a delivery pipe spout 1 to which It is fitted the apparatus 20. Thus, here, even a waterfalls can be used the generate hydro electricity.
REFER FIG 6:
Here, the apparatus 20 is fitted to the delivery pipe spout 1 of a irrigation canal 22 having lid 21 where the water level, within, is highly variable
While I have described and illustrated the aforementioned embodiments of my present invention of apparatus 20 and hydro pump 9 to harness the kinetic energy in pipe lines, waterfalls, canals and fountains. I do not wish to limit myself to the exact perform shown, described and illustrated which is intended to the Illustrate the invention to show how best the same can be performed rater than limit the scope of this invention.
It is to be expressly understood that this Invention is susceptible to such changes and modifications which shall define no material departure from the salient features of this invention herein described and illustrated.
Dated this second of July two thousand and four.

I CLAIM:
i. a apparatus 20 characterized in that, the said apparatus 20 comprises of a Hydro Pump 9 and Turbo Generator 3; the said Hydro Pump 9 is driven by wind blades 10;
ii. a Hydro Pump 9, characterized in that it is operated by wind blades 10 to generate water jet 15 that drives the Turbo Generator 3 In Penstock 5 as seen in figure 3;
iii. a apparatus 20 and a Hydro Pump 9, so adapted, to be fixed to the delivery pipe spout 1 of any water source;
iv. a apparatus 20, Hydro Pump 9 and Turbo Generator 3 substantially hereinbefore described and illustrated with reference to the drawings in the Provisional Specification, Complete Specification with claims 1, 2, 3 & 4 and another Complete Specification (Patent of Addition) with claims 1, 2, 3 & 4 in respect of patent application no: 630 /CHE/ 2004.
