  • Publication number: 20070258771
    Abstract: This project uses the class #2 simple lever machine principal in a simple and unique way to harvest and transport energy from the bottom of an ocean or lake from the action of water waves beyond the shore and up on land. The fulcrum for this lever is an anchor on the seafloor, at the opposite end of this lever, the force, or energy, is an attached water container that rises and falls with water wave action. A water pump anchored to the seafloor and reaching the underside of the water container receives the energy and pumps water continually and harmoniously with the vertical movements of this water container to shore and into a fresh water reservoir. After the water has lost its energy to do work from its loss of elevation below the reservoir it can be recycled back to the water pump.
