Louisiana businessman Willie
Klump dreams of the day when
America’s motorists will drive hun
dreds of thousands of miles without
changing their motor oil because
they bought Klump-manufactured
oil filters stuffed with toilet paper.
In San Jose, Calif., Bill Posey en
visions freeways jammed with peo
ple riding his motorized skateboards
at speeds up to 35 miles an hour,
while in Southern Pines, N.C., Pe
ter Greenspan sees compressed air
powered cars on the horizon.
In a more conventional vein in
New York City, scores of Stuart
Pivar’s gasoline-powered Microcars
are already in use as he begins pro
duction of an electric-powered
model.
They are among thousands of in
ventors across the country who have
answered the call in the battle
against rising gasoline prices and
dwindling oil supplies. Annually
they submit tens of thousands of
ideas to government and private in
dustry officials, and occasionally, as
in Pivar’s case, some of their inven
tions find their way to the production
line.
“The private inventor is probably
the best source of ideas available, ”
said Dave Mello, a project engineer
in the Department of Energy ’s ener
gy-related inventions program,
headquartered in Washington.
In the six years the program has
been in existence, Mello said, the

"The private inventor is prob
ably the best source of ideas
available," said Dave Mello, a
project engineer in the Depart
ment of Energy’s energy-related
inventions program, headquar
tered in Washington.
Energy Department has received
60,000 proposals from small inven
tors whose suggestions range from
the impossible to the technically
feasible.
“About half of them are good
enough to warrant further evalua
tion,” Mello said. The Energy De
partment then submits the ideas to
the U.S. Bureau of Standards for
evaluation.
Mello said “the winners” are then
sent back to the Department of
Energy to be considered for a federal
grant. So far, the Bureau of Stan
dards has recommended 128 ideas to
the Energy Department for grant
consideration.
Among those in the field of trans
portation that have been pursued are
advanced carburetors, a new spark
ignition system, and what Mello cal
led an “optimizer,” which would
keep all of an automobile’s systems
running as efficiently as possible.

ly,” said Mello. “One man cannot
run an enterprise alone. What are
needed are specialists in marketing,
specialists in finance, and other
areas. All of those go into making a
successful product.”
The U.S. Patent Office in Arling
ton, Va., also speeds up action on
energy and environmentally related
inventions.
Don Stocking, of the patent
office’s Heat and Power Engineering
Examining Group, said there has
been a boom in recent years in solar-
related patent requests, while patent
requests in other energy-related
fields have remained stable.
Private corporations also offer
another avenue for the private in
ventor to get his idea into produc
tion.
At the General Motors Technical
Center at Warren, Mich., the new
devices section receives about 4,000
proposals each year from private in

General Motors received 3,800

“We purchased the rights to only
two of them to investigate further
