@@ICGedye Mechanical advantage doesnt really have limits outside of breaking the materials involved. They are not going to magically gain a "sufficient" ratio of force by adding in unnecessary energy conversions. All that can do is reduce efficiency. If straight mechanical advantage is possible for the situation one should never add in extra energy conversions.
@@ICGedye Looking at conservation of energy, it needs to lose water at the level of the pump in order to pump some of the water up to a higher level; the higher the level you want to pump upwards, the more water you would have to lose. This type of pump is suitable for outdoor type applications, or at least with somewhere to drain away water.

Sadly, my kind of question. Differential between the head of water driving the pump and the head it can lift to, I'm guessing just put a pipe direct to collect the water and bypass the pump. Certainly done the "free energy" thing and would love someone to crack it, but don't think it's this time.
This looks like a Ram Pump. I have been making these for 20 years to use in the developing world. This is just a different version as far as I can tell.
@@Peachy08 I'm afraid not sufficiently enough for me to understand. I've only ever watched videos on them, but I thought ram pumps pressurised a standing tube, so I was looking for a more detailed explanation of the differences. Not that it matters, 'cos I'm not in the market to buy one anyway. :)
How high above the pump must you get the water to operate the pump? It seems the water pressure must be pretty high to expand that tire and lift all that weight of the pump!
Not sure about this one but most useful sized hydraulic ram pumps need at least a meter of drop and a decent volume of water in the input pipe to work. More drop is better, but it's less than one might imagine.
Which would highlight the advantage of a traditional ram pump, not wasting energy lifting anything but water. I don't see how this new pump could work better when it has to lift the water AND the pump mechanism... simple conservation of energy.
@@davidjones8942 Assuming enough head volume to drive it in the first place, the weight of the piston is negligible. A physical piston also provides positive displacement so the potential pressure is high. In systems like this you're typically not trying to wring every last bit of efficency out of it. What's of more concern to me, versus the traditional style, is the durability of the rubber diaphram and seals over time. But it looks pretty tough and easy to service anyway.
@@roomtemp6374 ok, but the downside if a piston setup would be that a tiny failure to seal will result in (relatively) large loss of efficiency, whereas the ram pump is causing build up of pressure by stopping a large column of moving water, so a failure to seal on the one way valve would have to be enormous to effect output efficiency. I'm not trying to claim a ram pump is better than this piston set up, just that they are close enough to similar that there is no advantage to the piston design that could possibly warrant a roughly 100x price tag....
This is cool and much better than a ram pump, but looks expensive and your talking about parts that need to be changed. Out of reach for some. I've been pumping water from my small creek for years with a bicycle wheel and a small fluid transfer pump meant to go on a drill, $20 bucks. A bike rim with some paddles on it mounted on a wood A frame and the pump attached to the axle with a clamp and a hose leading up to my 2500 litre pond. The whole unit gets put in the shallow creek when I need water in my garden pond and I just leave it for half a day to fill and I'm good for a week of watering. Granted my elevation change is only about 18 to 20 feet and 100 ft of hose, don't know if that could be increased though, never tried. There's always a way to build something on a budget.
We all could learn from this guy . We need to learn about this and all things that would make is not so dependent on our costly sources we have now and going to get worse .
Just to clarify, the device pumps water from a “pool” or reservoir, that it sits in, but is driven by water flowing from another source (creek or waterfall)? So would be no good if you don’t have water flow to drive it?
That,s usually the case (bunyip inventor) though sometimes the pumped water can come from else where ie gravity fed from eg seperate clean spring water. Cheers
Correct, it's another greenfreek pipe dream. Just look at the comments! They say to abolish governments and corporations and replace them with free education and soybean generators. Like all such dope inspired thinking they have no idea how to pay for other then to confiscate people more industrious then they are's money
Amazing the number of drug addled minds that come prancing out of the closet preaching hate of civilization and all who have contributed to and profited from said contributions! This device, and I use that term loosely, contributes about as much to society as Jack's magic beans! It takes flowing water to pump water with it. If your going to divert water to it then why not just divert it to where it's needed? The mechanical waste of this thing would make it too inefficient to be sold if it had to pass the same standards of anything fueled by any of the non-hippie power sources
@@guruofdoodoo so it wouldn't work for everybody; so what; it will work for somebody, and that somebody won't have to pay a municipality $100/month for recycled toilet water... 💩
@@myd0gr3x you're same people who brought about the 1.6 gallon toilets you have to flush twice (3.2) because we must conserve water. Yet it's ok to divert water and use more of said diverted water then what gets pumped? When you could use a traditional pump with much less lost energy and water. This system is a total loss across the board
Will the water taste like the "tire?" If so, that can be replaced by a non-taste material. I'm not so sure about that 650 pounds of pressure....seems like it would have blown that tire. Still, it works so...
the tyre doesn't get the high pressure inside it - lots of water at low pressure in the tyre is used to get a little bit of water to high pressure in the top piston (and it looks like the water that goes into the tyre is just used for power, and spills out; the inlet pipe - top piston - outlet pipe is separate)
No, the power feed water supply and the water being pumped can be entirely separate, which is another score over a simple ram pump. This way you can use a copious but dirty water supply to push a low volume but clean spring water supply to wherever you need it; this could be important if you are using the water for animal or human consumption. It is quite often the case that you have plenty of water on a site, but not much of it is drinkable without treatment.
(Bunyip inventor) Though i,d fk.. with without Brett, he knows how to make one like you,d buy in the shop. I was going to say something technical but i thick some where else.
"will last a lifetime" yet its made mostly of plastic and rubber. It might not last as long as they hope. Would be good to see it actually do a few cycles too, the main shot being used here shows half a cycle where it looks like the input pipe is being manipulated slightly off camera.
You may well have to replace the tyre a few times in that period, but as long as it is flexible a completely worn-out tyre from a tyre-fitter would do just as well, and you'd get that for nothing.
When you say it will last 50+ years do you mean that no parts will need replacement for 50 years? I would think the tire would need changing every few years.
Found this very interesting. I've built ram pumps in the past, and they can be temperamental, need a bit of tuning to get them running best, and wont self start. I like the idea of the pressure intensifier, very clever.
@@DonHavjuan I'm willing to accept being wrong, but it appeared to me from the video that the tire expansion would effect the stroke, and the piston diameter would change output PSI (smaller = more PSI, less volume). If not what is the tire doing?
I got here from a Dutch video about the "beurram" pump, which seems to work on based similar principles although it's not identical, nor is it self-regulating. Cool to see an Aussie take on a robust gravity-powered pump with some advantages over other designs.
@@chaseme9860 Those that are exposed to freezing conditions ;-) But yeah, if you neglect all the parts that need regular changing, this pump lasts a life-time. Check-valve springs operated 24/7 will break, same goes for the return-springs inside the tire. If the seal between tire and upper-body of the pump starts to leak, the pump will not work at all. What happens when twigs, leaves etc find their way into the pump? It is a problem for all pumps but especially for 24/7 ones and this low volume pump has to work all the time. They were bashing the ram-pump a bit too much to my opinion.
As a small engine repairman I can tell you that these tires last for years and years and will even work once dry rotted. However, I have found that if you can protect the tires from sunlight then you can extend their life exponentially which would be highly beneficial even though these tires are basically free of charge to obtain. Love this idea
How much head pressure does this need to run? If i have a creek with just a few feet of elevation difference between the end of the intake pipe and the pump will it do anything?
I agree completely , less on recycling and more on building to last. Repair instead of replace. Much would be lost by some , and more would be gained by others.
What? 461 thumbs down? THIS IS BRILLIANT GOOD SIR. They must work for the power company or have shares in fuel corporations. lol Fantastic. Well done, thank you for sharing this mate.
@@neilcowan535 I think you took his comment too literally. Laws of physics can’t defeat themselves. However. You can absolutely use gravity forcing water to flow down, to power a device that will flow a smaller amount of water UP against gravity. There are other pump designs that will do this same thing.
Works something like a "Ram". Not good for drilled wells, but looks okay for diverting water from streams for irrigation and such. Not sure about lasting for generations. A bit of an overstatement, in my opinion. But if I find a need for something like this, I'd give it a try. Good luck, mates!!

I have only two questions, each of which requires an answer in the form of a single ratio (like "0.34 : 1"): 1. At the pump's highest actual operating efficiency, what is the ratio of mass of water output to mass of water input? 2. At the pump's lowest actual operating efficiency, what is the ratio of mass of water output to mass of water input? Thanks in advance.
(Bunyip inventor) Energy conversion efficiency goes from 30ish% for very low supply heads (300mm) to 65% for higher supply heads. Eg Input energy 1m @ 6Litres/sec is 60Watts With 50% eff. output is 30W Pumping to 50m head ...... Anyone who knows what,s going here can wok out the rest. That is you,ll find different water in to water out ratios. OR 1 Litre x 1m pumping to 10m you get a 10th of the 1 Litre = 0.1 Litres With 50% eff. end up with 0.05 Litres. So ratio is for 1m to 10m is 20:1 Cheers
@@ralphglockemann327 Forgive me, but would you simplify things by answering my questions directly? Each of the two questions requires only a single number as its answer. Thanks.
(Bunyip inventor) Sorry, that was getting messy... The point is that this ratio is different for different "lift ratios". Eg. 1m supply head "pumping" to 50m delivery head ie 1:50 lift ratio. From this we have for ever 1 Litre input there will be 1/50 Litre output @ 100% eff. ie mass input to mass output ratio is 50 : 1 @ 100% eff. Energy conversion efficiency goes from 30ish% for very low supply heads (300mm) to 65% for higher supply heads. For this example, the eff. is near 50% so the ratio becomes 100:1 ie half as good. If going from 1m to 100m this ratio becomes 200:1 So as you can see the answer to your question is more involved. I hope that is a satisfactory answer or it puts you in the picture. Cheers

They are not going to magically gain a "sufficient" ratio of force by adding in unnecessary energy conversions. All that can do is reduce efficiency. If straight mechanical advantage is possible for the situation one should never add in extra energy conversions.
@@ICGedye Looking at conservation of energy, it needs to lose water at the level of the pump in order to pump some of the water up to a higher level; the higher the level you want to pump upwards, the more water you would have to lose.
This type of pump is suitable for outdoor type applications, or at least with somewhere to drain away water.
Great invention mate. Very impressed.
This pump called "trkač" has been used for over seventy years and originates in Czechoslovakia.
the elohim, sumerians and egyptians used this pump in Egypt.
No matter the origins, we need this type of life saving and affordable technology now, before we don't know about it at all !!

You are a great man! You have not only made a contribution to the footprint (more like; eliminated the footprint) left in efforts to provide the most important resource: impossible to live without, but you have selflessly kept no secrets as to how it works. I can only hope your genius is acknowledged and utilized. And I hope you are compensated appropriately. Your intentions are clearly selfless and synergetic. You have inspired me. I don't mean to overdo it but if utilized, its a real game changer and has the potential to eliminate many "civil maintenance" issues in third world countries in a very cost efficient way. please support this mans efforts if nothing more, hit the buttons the might give him some kind of UA-cam income.

the explanation on the ram pump was pretty good
Why is it that you did not show us the result of pumping uphill? most people don't need an explanation, a picture worth a thousand words.
They said can pump to over head water tank
Sadly, my kind of question. Differential between the head of water driving the pump and the head it can lift to, I'm guessing just put a pipe direct to collect the water and bypass the pump.

This looks like a Ram Pump. I have been making these for 20 years to use in the developing world. This is just a different version as far as I can tell.
He explained the difference between the two.
@@Peachy08 I'm afraid not sufficiently enough for me to understand. I've only ever watched videos on them, but I thought ram pumps pressurised a standing tube, so I was looking for a more detailed explanation of the differences. Not that it matters, 'cos I'm not in the market to buy one anyway. :)
(Bunyip inventor)
It uses a completely different principle in not a water hammer. See www.bunyipwaterpumps.com/history
@@ralpssss Can you ship to United States?
Absolutely brilliant mate
How high above the pump must you get the water to operate the pump? It seems the water pressure must be pretty high to expand that tire and lift all that weight of the pump!
Not sure about this one but most useful sized hydraulic ram pumps need at least a meter of drop and a decent volume of water in the input pipe to work. More drop is better, but it's less than one might imagine.
Which would highlight the advantage of a traditional ram pump, not wasting energy lifting anything but water. I don't see how this new pump could work better when it has to lift the water AND the pump mechanism... simple conservation of energy.
@@davidjones8942 Assuming enough head volume to drive it in the first place, the weight of the piston is negligible. A physical piston also provides positive displacement so the potential pressure is high.
In systems like this you're typically not trying to wring every last bit of efficency out of it. What's of more concern to me, versus the traditional style, is the durability of the rubber diaphram and seals over time. But it looks pretty tough and easy to service anyway.
@@roomtemp6374 ok, but the downside if a piston setup would be that a tiny failure to seal will result in (relatively) large loss of efficiency, whereas the ram pump is causing build up of pressure by stopping a large column of moving water, so a failure to seal on the one way valve would have to be enormous to effect output efficiency.
I'm not trying to claim a ram pump is better than this piston set up, just that they are close enough to similar that there is no advantage to the piston design that could possibly warrant a roughly 100x price tag....
@@davidjones8942 I didn't look at the price. In fairness I wouldn't compare it to homebrew pvc constructions. But with that said, I agree with you.
This is cool and much better than a ram pump, but looks expensive and your talking about parts that need to be changed. Out of reach for some. I've been pumping water from my small creek for years with a bicycle wheel and a small fluid transfer pump meant to go on a drill, $20 bucks. A bike rim with some paddles on it mounted on a wood A frame and the pump attached to the axle with a clamp and a hose leading up to my 2500 litre pond. The whole unit gets put in the shallow creek when I need water in my garden pond and I just leave it for half a day to fill and I'm good for a week of watering. Granted my elevation change is only about 18 to 20 feet and 100 ft of hose, don't know if that could be increased though, never tried. There's always a way to build something on a budget.
This is brilliant. I wish this guy was my neighbor...or at least on my continent. I would love to meet him! 😎
We all could learn from this guy . We need to learn about this and all things that would make is not so dependent on our costly sources we have now and going to get worse .
YOUR A MAD MAN EXCELLENT PRODUCT YOUR NAME AND PUMPS WILL BE ALL AROUND THE WORLD THEY WILL HELP MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF PEOPLE THANK YOU
Just to clarify, the device pumps water from a “pool” or reservoir, that it sits in, but is driven by water flowing from another source (creek or waterfall)? So would be no good if you don’t have water flow to drive it?
That,s usually the case (bunyip inventor) though sometimes the pumped water can come from else where ie gravity fed from eg seperate clean spring water. Cheers
Correct, it's another greenfreek pipe dream. Just look at the comments! They say to abolish governments and corporations and replace them with free education and soybean generators. Like all such dope inspired thinking they have no idea how to pay for other then to confiscate people more industrious then they are's money
Amazing the number of drug addled minds that come prancing out of the closet preaching hate of civilization and all who have contributed to and profited from said contributions! This device, and I use that term loosely, contributes about as much to society as Jack's magic beans! It takes flowing water to pump water with it. If your going to divert water to it then why not just divert it to where it's needed? The mechanical waste of this thing would make it too inefficient to be sold if it had to pass the same standards of anything fueled by any of the non-hippie power sources
@@guruofdoodoo so it wouldn't work for everybody; so what; it will work for somebody, and that somebody won't have to pay a municipality $100/month for recycled toilet water... 💩
@@myd0gr3x you're same people who brought about the 1.6 gallon toilets you have to flush twice (3.2) because we must conserve water. Yet it's ok to divert water and use more of said diverted water then what gets pumped? When you could use a traditional pump with much less lost energy and water. This system is a total loss across the board
Very good work there; the principle of operation might not be new but of old. However kudos for such a good job done
Will the water taste like the "tire?" If so, that can be replaced by a non-taste material. I'm not so sure about that 650 pounds of pressure....seems like it would have blown that tire. Still, it works so...
the tyre doesn't get the high pressure inside it - lots of water at low pressure in the tyre is used to get a little bit of water to high pressure in the top piston (and it looks like the water that goes into the tyre is just used for power, and spills out; the inlet pipe - top piston - outlet pipe is separate)
630 psi in the pump chamber and that was of a 5 m fall, so the tyre would have 7 psi, 1.4 psi per metre.
No, the power feed water supply and the water being pumped can be entirely separate, which is another score over a simple ram pump. This way you can use a copious but dirty water supply to push a low volume but clean spring water supply to wherever you need it; this could be important if you are using the water for animal or human consumption. It is quite often the case that you have plenty of water on a site, but not much of it is drinkable without treatment.
Probably wouldn't taste any worse than water through a plastic/rubber hose.
(Bunyip inventor) Though i,d fk.. with without Brett, he knows how to make one like you,d buy in the shop.
I was going to say something technical but i thick some where else.
Excellent info to share with my friends!
"will last a lifetime" yet its made mostly of plastic and rubber. It might not last as long as they hope.
Would be good to see it actually do a few cycles too, the main shot being used here shows half a cycle where it looks like the input pipe is being manipulated slightly off camera.
You may well have to replace the tyre a few times in that period, but as long as it is flexible a completely worn-out tyre from a tyre-fitter would do just as well, and you'd get that for nothing.
Nothing like leaving something useful for the next generation!
When you say it will last 50+ years do you mean that no parts will need replacement for 50 years? I would think the tire would need changing every few years.
Genius!! Congratulations and thank you for the thorough explanation. 🍻
Found this very interesting. I've built ram pumps in the past, and they can be temperamental, need a bit of tuning to get them running best, and wont self start. I like the idea of the pressure intensifier, very clever.
That is not a ram pump !

No. You get the same amount of power no matter what the size, because it doesn't generate power it just translates it.
@@DonHavjuan I'm willing to accept being wrong, but it appeared to me from the video that the tire expansion would effect the stroke, and the piston diameter would change output PSI (smaller = more PSI, less volume).
If not what is the tire doing?
I got here from a Dutch video about the "beurram" pump, which seems to work on based similar principles although it's not identical, nor is it self-regulating.
Cool to see an Aussie take on a robust gravity-powered pump with some advantages over other designs.

The tire and the sealings last a life time?
Negative, however... easily replaceable (and possibly maintainable). Weather cracks will definitely be an issue unobserved
He meant the pump body. Go be unnecessarily negative elsewhere. Must everything be explained with sock puppets to your kind?
@@Shanidar1 What pump body doesn't last a lifetime, moron?
@@chaseme9860 Those that are exposed to freezing conditions ;-)
But yeah, if you neglect all the parts that need regular changing, this pump lasts a life-time.
Check-valve springs operated 24/7 will break, same goes for the return-springs inside the tire.
If the seal between tire and upper-body of the pump starts to leak, the pump will not work at all.
What happens when twigs, leaves etc find their way into the pump? It is a problem for all pumps but especially for 24/7 ones and this low volume pump has to work all the time.
They were bashing the ram-pump a bit too much to my opinion.
As a small engine repairman I can tell you that these tires last for years and years and will even work once dry rotted. However, I have found that if you can protect the tires from sunlight then you can extend their life exponentially which would be highly beneficial even though these tires are basically free of charge to obtain.
Love this idea
How much head pressure does this need to run? If i have a creek with just a few feet of elevation difference between the end of the intake pipe and the pump will it do anything?
Is these pump is on the market now? How much do it cost?and how many meters is the overhead capacity?

I have only two questions, each of which requires an answer in the form of a single ratio (like "0.34 : 1"):
1. At the pump's highest actual operating efficiency, what is the ratio of mass of water output to mass of water input?
2. At the pump's lowest actual operating efficiency, what is the ratio of mass of water output to mass of water input?
Thanks in advance.
(Bunyip inventor)
Energy conversion efficiency goes from 30ish% for very low supply heads (300mm) to 65% for higher supply heads.
Eg Input energy 1m @ 6Litres/sec is 60Watts
With 50% eff. output is 30W
Pumping to 50m head ......
Anyone who knows what,s going here can wok out the rest.
That is you,ll find different water in to water out ratios.
OR 1 Litre x 1m pumping to 10m you get a 10th of the 1 Litre = 0.1 Litres
With 50% eff. end up with 0.05 Litres.
So ratio is for 1m to 10m is 20:1
Cheers
@@ralphglockemann327 Forgive me, but would you simplify things by answering my questions directly? Each of the two questions requires only a single number as its answer. Thanks.
(Bunyip inventor)
Sorry, that was getting messy...
The point is that this ratio is different for different "lift ratios".
Eg. 1m supply head "pumping" to 50m delivery head ie 1:50 lift ratio.
From this we have for ever 1 Litre input there will be 1/50 Litre output @ 100% eff.
ie mass input to mass output ratio is 50 : 1 @ 100% eff.
Energy conversion efficiency goes from 30ish% for very low supply heads (300mm) to 65% for higher supply heads.
For this example, the eff. is near 50% so the ratio becomes 100:1 ie half as good.
If going from 1m to 100m this ratio becomes 200:1
So as you can see the answer to your question is more involved.
I hope that is a satisfactory answer or it puts you in the picture.
Cheers
@@ralpssss Let's pretend you are trying to get approval from American politicians for your system to pump water from Point A to Point B.

Very cool pump. My well is 60 meters deep. Getting the water out of the ground needs a powerful pump.
So it takes water from up hill and pumps it back up hill?
It takes water from a little up hill and pumps some of it a lot further up hill.
It takes a large amount of water from up a small hill and sends a small amount up a bigger hill. It's basic physics and the basic design is 300 years old.

in Brazil it has been used for decades. we call it a hydraulic ram. if it sells ready to install.
