Linear and rotary magnetic motors

Abstract

Abstract 1. A HIGH-TORQUE, ROTARY, CONSTANT-FORCE ELECTROMAGNETIC MACHINE FUNCTIONALLY DEPENDENT UPON LEAKAGE FLUX, SAID MACHINE BEING DEVOID OF PERMANENT MAGNETS, AND MOTIVE FORCE GENERATED BY SAID MACHINE BEING PRODUCED BY MEANS OF MAGNETIC FLUX, WHICH CROSSES A WINDING WHICH WINDING ITSELF PRODUCES SAID FLUX, SAID MACHINE COMPRISING: A FIRST ELEMENT OF READILY MAGNETIZABLE MATERIAL, A SINGLE MAGNETIZING WINDING HELICALLY COILED ABOUT SAID FIRST ELEMENT, A SECOND ELEMENT GENERALLY SYMMETRICALLY DISPOSED AND CONCENTRICALLY SUPPORTED WITH RESPECT TO SAID FIRST ELEMENT, ONE OF SAID ELEMENTS DEFINING WITHIN PHERIPHERAL BOUNDS THEREOF A CAVITY, THE OTHER OF SAID ELEMENTS DISPOSED FOR MOVEMENT WITHIN SAID CAVITY AND HAVING A CROSS-SECTION DIMENSIONED TO DEFINE A SEPARATION BETWEEN SAID ELEMENTS, SAID FIRST AND SECOND ELEMENTS REVOLVING RELATIVE TO ONE ANOTHER DURING ENERGIZATION OF SAID MACHINE, BRUSH MEANS COUPLED MECHANICALLY TO ONE OF SAID FIRST AND SAID SECOND ELEMENTS FOR TRAVEL THEREWITH RELATIVE TO SAID OTHER OF SAID FIRST AND SAID SECOND ELEMENTS AND IN ELECTRICAL CONTACT WITH SAID WINDING TO SUPPLY EXCITATION CURRENT THERETO AND TO PRODUCE A MAGNETIC FIELD WITHIN SAID CAVITY, TO EFFECT RELATIVE MOVEMENT BETWEEN SAID FIRST AND SAID SECOND ELEMENT, TWO MUTUALLY ISOLATED BUT SUBSTANTIALLY IDENTICAL POWER SOURCES, AND ELECTRICAL CONDUCTOR MEANS CONNECTING (RESPECTIVE) EACH OF SAID POWER SOURCES TO (CURRENT CARRYING) SAID BRUSH MEANS TO ENERGIZE OPPOSED SECTORS OF ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS OF SAID MACHINE.
