The Spiral Pump A High Lift, Slow Turning Pump By Peter Tailer, TailerP@aol.com 80 Lyme Road, Apt 318 Hanover, NH 03755 U.S.A. Summary: A spiral pump, first invented in 1746, has been recreated and tested at Windfarm Museum using lightweight and inexpensive modern materials. A 6 foot diameter wheel with 160 feet of 1-1/4 inch inside diameter flexible polyethylene pipe is able to pump 3,900 gallons of water per day to a 40 foot head with a peripheral speed of 3 feet per second. With its low torque requirements, the pump is particularly suited to be mounted on and driven by a paddle wheel in a current of two feet per second or greater. This easily built, low maintenance spiral pump can be used to provide water without the need for fuel wherever there is a flowing stream or river. It can also be hand turned or otherwise driven to provide a low cost, efficient pump.

How ethical is it to pass off this invention from 1746 as your own? "aQysta develops hydro-powered irrigation system, a sustainable solution that uses kinetic energy of flowing river to pump water, and does not require fuel or electricity to operate."

You should read the definition of innovation and read the whole document before questioning. So you found this article and thought you are such a smart person. So this paper is going to install the pump in Nepal, or are you? Read this article carefully. We have never claimed the principle is developed by us, we are bringing it to where it is needed. http://www.ekantipur.com/nep/2...

Sorry to break the bubble but when you promote the pump as if it's your own idea without giving it due credit in your videos, it seems like you are trying take the credit for developing the idea.
