BRIDGE Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC E01D1/00 

FIELD: electricity.

SUBSTANCE: shaft is bearing-mounted in the support projections. Attached to the shaft end are two blades. A gear-wheel is fixed on the shaft. Attached to a projection on the support is an electric generator having a stator and an anchor. A gear-wheel is fixed on the shaft, contacting another gear-wheel. The electric generator is connected to a transmission line via a conductor through the superstructure. Water flowing by the pillar pushes the blade, since the oppositely positioned blade remains behind the pillar, it is unaffected by the water head. Thus, the shaft continuously rotates. One gear-wheel sets into rotation the other. One gear-wheel sets into rotation the other. On the stator voltage is generated that is supplied into the transmission line via the conductor through the superstructure.

EFFECT: application of a bridge designed as proposed enables production of electric energy without land flooding that reduces cereal crops plantations, such energy production requiring little costs.
