| Details Of Innovation | This equipment is not new. When the water is about 15 to 20 feet deep, one has to take it out for agricultural purposes. This is a profitable way of taking water from the deep well. With this equipment, one can very easily take out water. This equipment is strong enough to draw about 20 to 25 feet of water. To draw water from the well, one has to immerse the vessel into the water. The method has been in practice for the last 30 to 35 years. No innovation has been made to it. Those who are not using it believe that the oil engine is a more effective solution. The cost of this equipment is about Rs. 30 to Rs. 35/-. Economically, it is beneficial. It has no relation to land and atmosphere. Way of using it: It is very simple equipment to take out water. It has two strong timers on a strong post. At one end, there is a vessel or a bucket to draw out water. At the other end, weight is attached. One man can draw water by immersing the vessel in the well, and immediately the other end will lift as the weight attached is more than the bucket of water. |
