Abstract

An electromagnetic generating transformer comprises one or more flux assembly having one or more magnetic field source having a positive pole and a negative pole and a magnetic field passing in a path between the positive pole and the negative pole and a conductor magnetically coupled with the one or more magnetic field source, the magnetic field source and the conductor being fixed relative to one another; a shunt is coupled with a motive source and configured to move the shunt into a primary position and a secondary position, wherein the magnitude of the magnetic field passing between the positive pole and the negative pole varies when the shunt is moved between the primary position and the secondary position.

Claims (6)

1. An electromagnetic generating transformer, comprising:

at least two flux assemblies with a first flux assembly of the at least two flux assemblies having one or more first magnetic field source and a first coil magnetically coupled with the first magnetic field source, the first magnetic field source being fixed relative to the first coil, and with a second flux assembly of the at least two flux assemblies having one or more second magnetic field source and a second coil magnetically coupled with the second magnetic field source, the second magnetic field source being fixed relative to the second coil, the first flux assembly and the second flux assembly being magnetically isolated from one another, and the first magnetic field source and the second magnetic field source having a positive pole and a negative pole and a magnetic field passing in a path between the positive pole and the negative pole;

a plurality of shunts mounted on a drum; and

a motive source operably coupled with the drum having the plurality of shunts mounted thereon and configured to move the plurality of shunts through a circular path into primary positions a first distance away from the respective first and second flux assembly and secondary positions a second distance away from the respective first and second flux assembly, wherein a strength of the magnetic field passing between the positive pole and the negative pole varies when the plurality of shunts are moved between the primary position and the secondary position, the plurality of shunts inducing more than one magnetic field change in a single rotation of the drum.

2. The electromagnetic generating transformer of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of shunts are magnetically permeable.

3. The electromagnetic generating transformer of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of shunts comprise one or more magnetic field permeable segment alternating with one or more magnetic field impermeable segment.
