Abstract
An electromagnetic generator without moving
parts includes a permanent magnet and a magnetic core including first
and second magnetic paths. A first input coil and a first output coil
extend around portions of the first magnetic path, while a second input
coil and a second output coil extend around portions of the second
magnetic path. The input coils are alternatively pulsed to provide
induced current pulses in the output coils. Driving electrical current
through each of the input coils reduces a level of flux from the
permanent magnet within the magnet path around which the input coil
extends. In an alternative embodiment of an electromagnetic generator,
the magnetic core includes annular spaced-apart plates, with posts and
permanent magnets extending in an alternating fashion between the
plates. An output coil extends around each of these posts. Input coils
extending around portions of the plates are pulsed to cause the
induction of current within the output coils.
Introduction
Within the MEG, a set of input coils and a set of output coils extend
around portions of the transformer-type magnetic core. A pair of input
and output coils are on the right and left of the transformer frame. A
permanent magnet is positioned in middle of the magnetic core. A
permanent magnet furnishes magnetic flux lines moving from the north
pole outward into the core material, resulting in a right and a left
magnetic path. These paths extend externally between the north and
south magnetic poles. A driving electrical current through each of the
input coils reduces a level of magnetic flux from the permanent magnet
within the magnet path around which the input coil extends. A moving
magnetic field induces a charge in a coil. When a magnet is placed in
between two metal plates, the flux is placed evenly. The permanent
magnet is used as a flux battery, making this machine's operation
possible. When a current flows through one of the input coils, all the
magnetic flux goes to one metal plate, making the total magnetic flux
change .5 . Stopping the current through that input coil and the field
goes back to normal, and thus the magnetic flux change is .5 which
pulses another current through the opposite input coil. The magnetic
flux change is .5. Continued operation results in power used that is
only half of the power created.
The MEG's magnetic core is composed
of a magnetic alloy (of crystalline grains (or crystallite) of a few
nanometers). These are used because of the material's rapid switching
of magnetic flux characteristics. Each crystallite is a single-domain
particle in magnetic terms. One of the magnetic materials preferred is
the alloy of cobalt-niobium-boron; this alloy has a near-zero
magnetostriction and relatively strong magnetization. This alloy also
has a relatively high mechanical strength and corrosion resistance.
Other magnetic materials acceptable to be used can be iron-rich
amorphous and nanocrystalline alloys. These materials exhibit a greater
magnetization than the cobalt based alloys. An example of this alloy
material would be iron-boron-silicon-niobium-copper. Though the
permeability of this alloy is limited by its relatively large levels of
magnetostriction, the formation of a nanocrystalline material
dramatically reduces this level of magnetostriction and favors easy
magnetization Initially, a sensing and switching circuit connects the
switching and control circuit to an external power source. External
power sources can include, but are not limited to, a battery. The
"switching and control circuit" is connected to an oscillator driver
that is the clock input of a flip-flop circuit. The alternate outputs
(Q and Q') of the flip-flop are connected through independent driver
circuits; such circuits can include a darlington pair or a one-shot
circuit. The FETs alternately drive the input 'choking' coils. After
being started, a "sensing and switching circuit" detects if there is a
predetermined level of voltage available from a regulator circuit. Once
this condition is met, the power input to the switching and control
circuit is switched from the external power source to the output of the
regulator circuit. After this switching event, the electromagnetic
generator operates without an application of external power.It is
notable that, according to the patent, during operation of the MEG the
input coils are never driven to the point that the core material
becomes saturated. If the core material is saturated, subsequent
increases in input current that do occur have no corresponding effect
in the magnetic flux and input power is wasted. In the MEG, the
switching of current flow within the input coils does not need to be
sufficient to stop the flow of flux in one of the magnetic paths while
promoting the flow of magnetic flux in the other magnetic path. The
electromagnetic generator works by changing the flux pattern; it does
not need to be completely switched from one side to another.
