Re-Inventing The Wheel-Part1-Clemente_Figuera-THE INFINITE ENERGY MACHINE

For me, the only thing that remains incomprehensible is the purpose of a thick wire wound with a snake around permanent magnets.  Shown with a red arrow.
The ends are brought out, but not connected anywhere (not used).

speed measurement or speed/torque control with DC, like in magnetic amplifier.

The Magnetic Amplifier. The purpose of the magnetic amplifier is to amplify a.c. signals in order to make them suitable to drive a motor (servo motors, etc.) or to actuate a relay

The link you posted has a mistake in the first paragraph
Quote; "As the DC level in the control coil is increased, the average value of magnetic flux within the core increases towards the saturation level thus limiting the variation of the magnetic field and reducing the AC output."

This is incorrect. Without the DC winding the AC running through the transformer has high inductive reactance (Impedance) so the current through the winding is very low. As DC is applied to the control winding it slowly saturate the core nullifying a portion of the AC reactance thus allowing more current to flow. At full on DC control winding the AC winding will have almost zero Inductive reactance (Impedance) thus full AC current is able to pass. I studied old school stage lighting and military controls that's why I know.

This inductive reactance is the same as the controller in the Figuera device by the way.

Would you mind explaining in detail?

Certain people that are no longer on this site had it right. Clemente Figuera used inductive reactance to control the current through both sets of electromagnets.
If you want real in depth details i cam PM you.

I think his Patent 44267 (year 1908) is very much what the PDF Egg of Columbus explains.  Not the tesla physical spinning egg- but the PDF attached.

He uses 2 driver coils and 1 pickup per set.   The pickup is between the 2 drivers. It is wired in a way where he is adjusting the power of the electromagnetic fields so they are varying and not the same.  One driver is always stronger than the other. Or one electromagnet is filling while the other is emptying.

"it can be said that electrodes N and S works simultaneously and in opposite way because while the first ones are filling up with current, the seconds are emptying and while repeating this effect continuously and orderly a constant variation of the magnetic fields within which is placed the induced circuit can be maintained, without any more complications than the turning of a brush or group of brushes that move circularly around the cylinder "G" powered by the action of a small electrical motor."

Edit-  I re-did the graphic with a proposed commutator design.

It seems from the patent the coils always pulse the same polarity from a DC source.  It would be possible to use alternating DC but the commutator would be much more complicated. I Bolded the part above where it is suggestive Alternating DC can be (and probably should be) used.

I am pretty sure it could be done electronically with mosfets instead of a commutator.
