Solar controlled water well

Claim 1

Apparatus for automatic control of water flowing from a water well to storage, comprising: a solar panel having a plurality of soluar cells directed to intercept sun rays to generate a d-c voltage output; a d-c storage cell receiving input of said d-c voltage output; pump compressor means periodically energized by said d-c storage cell to provide output of air at increased pressure; an elongated airjet chamber having upper and lower ends and being disposed below the water level of said well and having a nipple in the upper end for receiving the output of air at increased pressure sealingly connected at an upper extremity, said chamber having inlet holes at a bottom extremity to allow entry of water; an exit tube extending along the majority of the length of said airjet chamber, said exit tube having at least one air mix hole formed through the upper extremities proximate said airjet chamber upper end; a surface storage tank; and a delivery pipe connected between the exit tube at the upper end of the airjet chamber and the surface storage tank to conduct water in response to said air at increased pressure.
