Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The present invention provides improved methods, apparatus, and manufacture for an Archimedes Screw using a new blade design to increase the volume of water raised or lowered by about 9%-18%. The invention, in part alters the shape of the blades within the screw from a helicoid shape to a new shape called a "makroid" by the inventor. A helicoid blade in an Archimedes Screw has been used since antiquity and has not changed since then, limiting the efficiency. The makroid shape allows a greater quantity of water to be contained within the screw.
