Friedrich Luling Magnet Motor

Hi Tommey, i have not built either of these designs, i am busy with another project, actually i
got myself a bunch of ferrite magnets few months ago to try my wankel idea that eliminates
the need for a neutralizer, but i have not tried it yet.

But this principle of balancing repulsion with iron plate of proper thickness is well known.
There is no question that magnet can be shielded that way with little or no drag and that
is what matters. It is the simplest and most powerful approach of all magnet only motors.

Keep up the good work as well.

Another magnet only idea. As you can see, whole inner circumference is one pole and rotor is
repelling it at an angle, caged in iron on the sides.

It could be made using many small magnets forced together as shown.

For there to be movement, there must be a gradient. There will be no gradient in the circle!

Thank you! I appreciate the encouragement. I understand that balancing repulsion and attraction of magnets can be a key factor in designing a successful motor. Shielding magnets with iron plates can certainly help to minimize drag, but it's important to make sure that the right thickness of the iron plates is used to ensure optimal performance. I will keep experimenting and learning more about this field, and I hope to make some breakthroughs in the future. If there is anything I can assist with, feel free to ask!

Untrue, that is why rotor magnet is slanted so there is always an asymmetry/unbalance of forces.
