Static elevator system?

Last time I introduce a problem of energy efficiency in all elevator, namely that the gravitational potential energy gained by having a balancing weight on the process of elevator going upward is lost on its way back. So I suggests two way to 'resolve' this technicality: First is by making the balancing weight adjustable; Second is to changing how the balancing weight is interacting with the elevator. Needn't me make explicit my design, some intelligent reader may already in the same train of thought as I: To pass the tension generated by the balancing weight, it is not necessary to put the elevator and balancing weight in the same cable.
One we made this conceptual breakthrough, then it follow the logic that we can separate the gravitational force and how that acting on the subject by using a tension transferring system to transfer the tension produce by gravity acting on balancing weight. That system could be as simple as pairing of electromagnet and iron wheel, or more complicate system like magnet and electromagnet using the generator effect. With this system we can now fine tune how the tension produced by the balancing weight affect the cable carrying the elevator, i.e. the timing, quantity and direction of the force.
Suppose we now have this system in place so we turn on and turn off the effect of tension produced by the balancing weight on the cable carrying the elevator. However, we are still one step from using the tension produced by the balancing weight disentangled with the nature gravitational energy because what goes up must goes down. My suggested design is couple the wheel driving the elevator with unidirectional gear and break down the upward/downward motion of it to thousandth. Now imagine when the elevator is going upward,given the balancing weight is ten to hundred times of the expected weight of elevator, then the weight of the elevator is transferred to the balancing weight resulting in minimal downward motion. Suppose we now locked the elevator, turn off the tension transferring system and allow the balancing weight to bounce back using elasticity of the cable or other mechanism. So now the balancing weight is on the same position while the elevator has moved upward.The process is then repeat itself until the elevator reach its uppermost point; and when elevator is going downward, we simply turned off the tension transferring system. Thus we had extract the energy from gravitational field to move the elevator by clever engineering, we could probably saved 70%-80% of the energy cost of the elevator.

靜態重力電梯主意(2)

上次提到,要盡量利用平衡重的重量為電梯上升的動力,但又不想在電梯下降時付回剛賺到重力位能,除了把平衡重的重量改成可變的思路外,還有一個改變平衡重和電梯如何互動的思路,此思路如何具體實現?

首先,一般的設計都是把平衡重和電梯直接連在一起,以便平衡重的重量和電梯的重量直接互動,其實要平衡重的重量可以和電梯的重量發生作用,兩者不一定直接連起來,只要有適當的方法把平衡重的重量傳過去,有這樣一個媒介的好處是我們可以控制兩者的重力如何互動,其中一個媒介/方法是利用發電機發電時產生的阻力效應來把平衡重的重量在有需要時傳到電梯,而當沒有需要時,這個重力傳遞系統可以關掉。但是,雖然可以控制重力的傳遞,卻無法克服最基本的一個問題,就是除非平衡重可以像上次水力升降機的設計一樣可升可降,否則下降了的平衡重一樣要同樣的位能來補償,除非有一個辨法令平衡重不用升降也可以發揮它的重力作用,於是靜態(或相對靜態)的平衡重居然用自身的重量可以令電梯升降。

我的想法是把電梯上升及下降時的動作分成萬千個分割的片段,假設平衡重是比電梯重近百部,如此當電梯要上升時,我們可以用重力傳遞系統把平衡重的重力間竭傳送到電梯上,電梯每上升一格後便被不可逆的齒輪卡住,而由電梯上升而產生的反作用力則會令平衡重有一剎那的躍動,但不久便會回複正常的位置。如此的過程不斷重複,直至電梯抵達最高層為止。而當電梯向下降時,運作方式就更簡單了,只要電梯的鋼纜夠長,我們要可以在此時令重力傳遞系統暫時失效,於是平衡重的重量為電梯上升提供的動能便不用任何方式來補償,達到充份利用地球重力場所提供的勢能的效果,節省能源自然是最環保。

My idea of hydrallic driven elavator

Now it is trendy to invent energy saving items, so I design this new elavator for solve the age old dilemma of balancing weight. The idea behind balancing weight is to increase the easiness of lifting an elavtor, at the price of paying back the same amount of potential energy it saved on its upward motion. Is there a way to save energy on upward motion without compensate in the downward motion?

There are several ways to approach this problem: First, we can made the weight of balancing weight variable in according to the direction of motion for the goal of energy saving; Second is to change the way which these two interact with each other. I save the later for another article. Now, how to change the weight of balancing weight so it would be heaviest when the elevator is going up and lightest when the elevator is going down?

Easy, by using the waste water pump out of each level; we now need a collection facilitate for collecting all the waste water from each apartment of each level; and also not a very complicate system to intelligently decide the amount of waste water used during each passage of elevator. Assume such a system is in place, then the balancing weight is actually a metallic cylinder allowing waste water to be collected. When the elevator is travelling upward, the rule of thumb is to increase the balancing weight as much as possible; and when the elevator is going back, the waste water in the cylinder is expelled through its opening in the bottom, which then going to the public sewage processing system.

How would such an idea to be implemented?

水力升降機小主意

環保潮流,萬事萬物都以節能為尚,但是現在的升降機一點都不服膺於這原則,因為聰明的工程師為了省回升降機上升時的能量,於是便加上了平衡重來作相反方向的運動,不過省回的能量卻在升降機下降時被浪費掉。關鍵是有升必有降,只要平衡重的重量不變,節能是絕對不可能的。
有幾個可以解決此難題的思路,一是由平衡重如何和升降機的重量互動箸手,另一是相當簡單的把平衡重的重量由不變改成可變,順騰摸瓜,要節能的話當然是想辦法令升降機在上升時的平衡重變成最重,同理,升降機在下降時的平衡重變成最輕。如何令升降機在上升時的平衡重變成最重,升降機在下降時的平衡重變成最輕呢?其中一個辦法是先把平衡重變成一大容器,然後利用每戶每天生產出來的污水,每當升降機要向上時,就把平衡容器注滿污水,然後當升降機要下降時,就把平衡容器盛的水放走到污水渠,如此我們是巧妙利用了污水的重力勢能作能源來推動升降機作升降任務,它本身只消秏少量的電來作通風和照明(可從太陽能取得),絕對合乎環保的原則,如果全世界都使用的話,每年將減低數以千噸溫室氣體的排放。剩下唯一的技術難關,是如何有效控制污水的收集及排放,而污水收集又如何儲藏才能避免衛生問題?要是污水不足的話,在雨帶地方可收集雨水作同一用途。
