CG Showcase of Overbalanced Wheel

[johnny874]

  helloha,
Think this is something you could do ?
It's also posted in the 7x's thread. It came about by discussing a different idea.
The ramps and lifting belt are next to the wheel.

                                                                                 Jim

did a quick illustration. As long as the 2 gears driving the lift mechanics are 92% the diameter of the one on the outer wheel, the lift will be to the right height.

  helloha,
a simple way to try 4 weights.
                                Jim
                                 
adding, the chamfered cog would also be stationary. The disc that would have 4 weights tethered
to it would rotate as the pull of the weights allow it to.

thks to norman and jim for the links, its very informative.

to jim,
the cog and gear idea seem extremely promising, but its beyond my ability, but still hoped u will continue to perfect the design.

If you count the balls on the left which is what needs to be heavier and on
the right the left seems to be short some balls so the mass is not greater
on the left than on the right is what I see the problem is.

yap, that design does give mi problem, so revert back to traditional design.
