Abstract
A multisource generator system and associated processes generate electricity using one or more of wind power, hydropower, mechanical power, and solar power. The power sources may be selectively attached and activated to generate the electricity. A rotor may be actuated in response to both the wind power and the hydropower. The mechanical power may further actuate the rotor.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A method of producing electrical power, the method including:
configuring a rotor to rotate in response to force produced using at least two of wind power, hydropower, and mechanical power; and generating electricity through rotation of the rotor.
2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising attaching a turbine blade to the rotor, wherein the turbine blade is configured to translate the force to the rotor, and wherein the turbine blade is responsive to at least one of the wind power and the hydropower.
3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein at least one of the turbine blade and the rotor includes a hollow portion.
4 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the turbine blade is detachable.
5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising enabling manually generated power to be communicated to the rotor.
6 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising directing water to a turbine blade in mechanical communication with the rotor.
7 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising positioning a water storage reservoir to direct water to a turbine blade in mechanical communication with the rotor.
8 . The method of claim 7 , further comprising using the electricity to run a water pump that pumps water to the water storage mechanism.
9 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising attaching the rotor and a turbine blade to a portable frame.
10 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising purifying water associated with the hydropower.
11 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising using inverter circuitry configured to perform at least one of: converting direct current to alternating current, receiving external power from an external power source, and providing the electricity to a battery.
12 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising connecting a solar panel to a frame, wherein energy by the solar panel supplies a water pump.
13 . A method of producing electrical power, the method including:
attaching at least three power sources to a circuit associated with a frame, wherein the plurality of power sources include: a wind power source, a hydropower source, a mechanical power source, and a solar power source; and generating electricity using the circuit.
14 . The method of claim 13 , further comprising attaching at least two of the wind power source, the hydropower source, and the mechanical power source to a rotor.
15 . The method of claim 14 , further comprising attaching a turbine blade to the rotor, wherein the turbine blade is responsive to both the wind power source and to the hydropower source.
16 . The method of claim 13 , further comprising attaching a carrying mechanism to the frame.
17 . A method of producing electrical power, the method including:
configuring a rotor to rotate in response to force produced using multiple power sources that include at least two of wind power, hydropower, and mechanical power, wherein at least two of the multiple power sources are detachably connected to the rotor; and generating electricity through rotation of the rotor.
18 . The method of claim 17 , further comprising attaching a detachable solar power source to a frame housing the rotor.
19 . The method of claim 17 , further comprising attaching a turbine blade to the rotor, wherein the turbine blade is configured to translate the force to the rotor.
20 . The method of claim 19 , wherein the mechanical power source is detachably attached to be in mechanical communication with the rotor.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
