drawing Wang Shum HO magnet motor

[rstergar]

i just created 3d image of this motor and i will print it and test it i will post results here...

Hi Rstergar,

Nice model.

Attached is another document from Lawrence Tseung(pg 15). It goes into the story behind it's creation and hardships of the inventor.

What is glossed over in the patent is the use of a ferrofluid. The ferrofluid is created to have a slight lag behind the magnet which offsets(tilts) the rotor slightly.

Wang said, "I did not know that unbalanced rotation could Lead Out energy until you
told me. The use of that unbalanced wheel is just the result of experiments. It took me
a few years to solve the problems one by one. It also uses a damping liquid otherwise
the shaking would be too much. I tested dozens of liquids before finding a suitable
one."

If you take a magnetic putty and put it in a plastic bag then place a plate on top with a magnet in the corner, you can get it to tilt the plate. Just change the viscosity to change the speed at which it lifts the plate.

Here is a slower magnetic putty for example.

ferrofluid does seem that it could be helpful.
flow rate could be controlled by viscosity, strength of fields and surface area dimensions.


well done, thanks for the insight.

result: not working... (without unbalanced rotation and liquid and shielding)

next step: i will add shielding (steel)...

if anybody have some ideas and plans on motor like this, contact me if you want 3D printed prototype

Very nice job on the 3d printed replication.  I am not really sure if this motor ever really worked but your replication appears to be very accurate to me.
