Abstract

Le mécanisme transforme une force de poussée verticale en rotation. La turbine utilise la force de poussée générée par des différences de pression dans les vessies à ballonnet des bras d'hélice et la pression de l'environnement externe, combinée à un système de contrepoids, de leviers, d'un volant d'inertie et de l'inertie. Des vessies à ballonnet dans le bras d'hélice, sous une pression de gaz optimale, exercent une poussée vers le haut, entraînant la rotation de l'hélice autour de l'arbre de stator. Des tiges de liaison dans le mécanisme de vessie à ballonnet tournent le long des crêtes d'arbre, changeant en alternance la pression, le volume et la densité de gaz dans les vessies à ballonnet opposées des bras d'hélice. Simultanément, les tiges de liaison du système de contrepoids tournent le long des nervures opposées de l'arbre en utilisant leur poids et leur inertie pour maintenir la rotation. Au moins deux hélices croisées assurent une rotation continue, maintenant ainsi la continuité du travail mécanique.
