This is a wind pump. It's used for pumping water from under the ground. As you can see, it's a very
simple mechanism. The wind turns the blades. This rotary movement is converted into an up-and-
down movement by the crankshaft - just like the crankshaft in a car engine. The piston of the pump
is connected to the crankshaft. As the blades rotate, water is pumped from the well.

It's used in the developing world, for example in Africa and in parts of India. This particular wind
pump is in Kenya. It can be used to provide drinking water or water for crops.

This is an example of appropriate technology. It's low cost. It doesn't use expensive fuel. It's made
from inexpensive materials and it can be repaired easily. It`s the right technology for the situation.
