Term of Protection: 50 Years
Title: Mechanism for Converting Reciprocating Motion into Continuous Rotative Motion in Steam Engines
Filed: Year 1671 of the New Vedic Era
Inventor: Hey Ram
Place of Filing: Bengaluru, Akhand Bharatiya Empire
Abstract:
This invention pertains to a mechanical apparatus designed to transform the reciprocating (i.e., back-and-forth) motion of a piston, such as that generated in the Devaraya atmospheric steam engine, into continuous rotative (i.e., circular) motion. The device significantly enhances the functionality of steam engines by enabling them to power rotary-based equipment, including industrial machinery, wheels, and mechanical shafts.
