Magnetic motor and method of use
Embodiments of the present invention may include a method of producing mechanical power by moving a coil coupled to a shaft partially into a magnetic cylinder having a magnetic end cap containing a plurality of stacked magnetic forces, changing the magnetic polarity of the shaft, moving the coil out of the magnetic cylinder. In other embodiments, there is an electric motor apparatus comprising a magnetic cylinder, a coil coupled to a shaft, and a means for reversing the magnetic polarity of the shaft.
1. An electric motor comprising:
at least one magnetic cylinder comprising:
a longitudinal center axis;
a first modular magnetic disc including a first plurality of magnets having similar magnetic poles pointing toward the longitudinal axis to create a first plurality of magnetic forces, such that each magnetic flux force within the first plurality of magnetic forces travels between a first pole of an inward face of a magnet of the first modular magnetic disc, around an open end of the magnetic cylinder, and back to a second pole of an exterior face of the magnet;
a second modular magnetic disc including a second plurality of magnets having similar magnetic poles pointing toward the longitudinal axis to create a second plurality of magnetic forces, such that each magnetic flux force within the second plurality of magnetic forces travels between a first pole of an inward face of a magnet of the second modular magnetic disc, around an open end of the magnetic cylinder, and back to a second pole of an exterior face of the magnet;
wherein the second modular magnetic disc is positioned longitudinally adjacent to the first modular disc along the longitudinal axis; and
an end cap coupled to the first modular magnetic disc to create a closed end, wherein the end cap includes one or more magnets orientated such that similar magnetic poles face an interior of the cylinder and the magnets of the end cap have a repulsive magnetic force with respect to third plurality of magnetic forces created by the coil assembly,
a first coil assembly, including, one or more electric coils; one or more core elements coupled to the one or more electric coils,
a means to apply electric current to the coil assembly when the coil assembly is positioned within the cylinder to create a third plurality of magnetic forces, wherein the third plurality of magnetic forces are repulsed by the first plurality and the second plurality of magnetic forces.
2. The electric motor of claim 1 , wherein the one or more magnets of the end cap are orientated to create a fourth plurality of magnetic flux forces such that each magnetic flux force within the fourth plurality of magnetic flux forces travels between a first pole of an inward face of a magnet of the end cap, around an open end of the magnetic cylinder, and back to a second pole of an exterior face of the magnet.
3. The electric motor of claim 1 , wherein the means to apply electric current to the coil applies a minimum amount of current to change the magnetic domain of the core elements.
4. The electric motor of claim 1 , further comprising a first connecting means coupling the coil assembly to a crankshaft assembly.
5. The electric motor of claim 1 , further comprising a flywheel to provide momentum to the crankshaft assembly.
