Abstract

A magnetic motor comprising a rotating flywheel coupled to rotate a drive output shaft within a support cage. Multiple permanent magnets extend directionally from the flywheel. Pairs of positionally fixed electro-magnets extend from the cage effacing platforms for sequential selective magnetic interaction with permanent magnets rotatable driving the flywheel and the drive output shaft.

Claims (16)

1. An electro-magnetic motor comprising,

a support frame having a pair of spaced platform supports,

an output shaft rotatably attached within said support frame,

a drive flywheel disk affixed to said output shaft,

a plurality of permanent magnets and adjustable mounting assemblies on opposing surfaces of said drive flywheel for movement along a predetermined circular path,

a plurality of selectively energized electro-magnets extending in annular fixed relation to one another on each platform support surface in opposing relation to one another whereby at least one of said permanent magnets are repelled by at least one of said energized electro-magnets in opposite directions along a first portion of said predetermined paths,

a plurality of proximity switches on said opposing surfaces of said drive flywheel disk in spaced adjacent relation to said electro-magnets and in communication therewith.

2. The electro-magnetic motor set forth in claim 1 wherein each of said plurality of permanent magnets and adjustable mounting assemblies comprises,

a mounting post, said permanent magnet angularly adjustably attached on said mounting post in respective angular inclination to the drive flywheel disk edge.

3. The electro-magnetic motor set forth in claim 1 wherein said drive flywheel disk is of a diameter less than that of said respective support frame platform supports.

4. The electro-magnetic motor set forth in claim 1 wherein said selective controlled electro-magnets are in communication with a source of electrical power through a power actuation control module.

5. The electro-magnetic motor set forth in claim 1 wherein magnetic fields of said permanent magnets and said electro-magnets during sequential energization are polar oriented north to north and south to south respectively in overlapping relation.

6. The electro-magnetic motor set forth in claim 1 wherein each of said plurality of permanent magnets includes a first magnetic pole of one polarity which is repelled by first pair of magnetic poles of said electro-magnets of said same polarity during energization.

7. The electro-magnetic motor set forth in claim 2 wherein said electro-magnets are in fixed relation to one another and in angular orientation to said adjustable permanent magnets defines while said angular orientation to a radial from said output shaft to said drive flywheel disk edge.

8. The electro-magnetic motor set forth in claim 4 wherein said power activation control module measures electro-magnetic motor parameters and adjust power supply voltage to said electro-magnets in response thereto.

9. The electro-magnetic motor set forth in claim 1 wherein said selectively controlled electro magnets are energized by a brief pulse of electric current.
