On July 17, 2014, a solution of the problem came unexpectedly, and I replaced the middle parts of the two leverages with a leaf spring (picture #2). As a result, balance shifted downwards lifting both counterbalances and the entire system kept its equi- librium. Later I named it ‘compound leverage’. Keep in mind, the system does not induce its rotation, a small motor is needed. Replacing the balance* (middle piece) with a linear generator allows gravity-to-electricity conversion. Due to system equilibrium, only a small portion of that energy is spent on rotation. 40
