ENERGY GENERATION AND STORAGE SYSTEM BASED ON TRAVELING PISTON IN A NON-HORIZONTAL TUBE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240035435 titled 'ENERGY GENERATION AND STORAGE SYSTEM BASED ON TRAVELING PISTON IN A NON-HORIZONTAL TUBE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an energy conversion and storage system that includes a piston and a guide. The piston has an inlet valve at the bottom and an outlet valve at the top. The guide allows the piston to move vertically and has a compressed gas outlet at the bottom. When the piston contacts the compressed gas outlet, gas is moved into the piston. The guide also has a release valve operator at the top, which opens the outlet valve when the piston contacts it. The system is connected to a source of compressed gas and can convert the motion of the piston into either the motion of another object or electric power.

  • The system includes a piston with inlet and outlet valves, and a guide that allows vertical movement of the piston.
  • The guide has a compressed gas outlet that supplies gas to the piston when it contacts the outlet.
  • The guide also has a release valve operator that opens the outlet valve when the piston contacts it.
  • The system is connected to a source of compressed gas.
  • The system can convert the motion of the piston into either the motion of another object or electric power.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Energy storage systems for renewable energy sources such as solar or wind power.
  • Power generation systems for vehicles or machinery.
  • Backup power systems for emergency situations.
  • Energy conversion systems for converting mechanical energy into electrical energy.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient energy conversion and storage.
  • Utilization of compressed gas for power generation.
  • Controlled release of gas for optimal performance.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Increased energy efficiency.
  • Versatile application in various industries.
  • Reliable and scalable energy storage and conversion.
  • Reduced reliance on fossil fuels.


Original Abstract Submitted

an energy conversion and storage system, comprises a piston defining an enclosed volume. the piston has an inlet valve proximate a bottom of the piston and an outlet valve proximate a top of the piston. a guide having a vertical displacement is arranged so that the piston travels along the guide. the guide has a compressed gas outlet proximate a bottom of the guide and is arranged to move gas into the piston when the piston contacts the compressed gas outlet. the guide has a release valve operator disposed proximate a top of the guide and is arranged to open the outlet valve when the piston contacts the release valve operator. a source of compressed gas in communication with the compressed gas outlet. the system has means for converting motion of the piston along the guide into either (i) motion of another object or (ii) electric power.
