MUMBAI, India, July 11 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202521060847 A) filed by Ashish Rambhau Kadu; and Minal Ashish Kadu, Malegaon, Maharashtra, on June 25, for 'system for generating electricity using height of flowing water.'
Inventor(s) include Ashish Rambhau Kadu; and Minal Ashish Kadu.
The application for the patent was published on July 11, under issue no. 28/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a gravity-driven water-based power generation system. The system comprises a reservoir (B/1, C/1) positioned at an elevated height relative to ground level (B/26, C/19) and connected via pipelines (B/2, B/14, C/2, C/3) to at least one block pipe (B/4, B/15, C/8, C/9). Movable plates (B/7, B/19, C/10, C/11) housed inside the block pipes form watertight compartments using sealing elements. Water from the reservoir fills the block pipes under gravitational force, activating a mechanical lock mechanism (B/27, B/28, C/20, C/21) that releases the plates after a threshold volume is reached. Downward movement of the plates operates a telescopic boom (B/8, B/18) and hydraulic cylinders (B/9, B/17), or alternatively pulls a wire rope (B/5, B/16, C/6, C/7) wound around a shaft (B/6, C/14). The generated mechanical energy drives a flywheel (B/11) and dynamo (B/13, C/22) through a gear system (B/21, C/17) and chain drive (B/22, C/18), enabling continuous electricity production without external energy input."
