LEVERAGE-MAXIMIZING VERTICAL AXIS RECIPROCATING BLADE HYDRO POWER GENERATOR

摘要

The present invention relates in general to the field of hydropower devices using a reciprocating or oscillating blade system. It aims at utilizing the currents of oceans and seas and rivers to generate electricity. Its distinguishing design makes it possible to realize a leverage factor, much larger than existing devices using a reciprocating or oscillating blade system, and by this it will introduce leverage as a main characteristic for harnessing the power of relatively slow river and ocean currents by devices using a reciprocating or oscillating blade system.
