Very simple magnetmotor

[Kysmett]

This is simple enough to test even in the middle of my home moving.  I will look for parts tomorrow, hopefully between the moving and the testing I will be free to post results on Sunday, if not on Monday.  I have a feeling that I am not accounting for something, but this is one of those things that I could work for a week to find the loophole, or spend a half hour building it and come to the same conclusion.  If it doesn't work, then I'll spend the week thinking about why, and if it does then whoopee I have a new house and a new working concept (which I will probably have to spend more than a week making useful).  Either way the next week is shot.

Very intriguing, this little guy.? For those seeking replication.....discard the 'field line' graphic and go by feel using your own scale.??There's an intriguing field coupling sweet spot in there......sphere magnets may present a more advantageous field geometry for use as 'satellite' magnets.

Also, using a larger, ceramic speaker ring magnet and smaller neos may be a good starting point and it appears given the scale shown in the graphic that this may be what was used in the Russian model.

It also appears that a variable central axis may be intentional.? Interesting at least.? Much to read between the 'lines'.....as usual.

Peace,

I now have the magnets (all NdFeB): one 50 x 10 mm diskmagnet as stator and two 23 x 2 mm diskmagnets as rotor. They are very strong and if you hold one of the rotormagnets with your hands at the right place near the big statormagnet, you can feel a very strong force in one direction. When it is build, I will tell you the results.

I had a shot at this using speaker 3" dia and 3/8" dia. I could get 180 turn but seemed a sticky spot here. and always at same spot. Haven't given up and there might be more to it. What link do you find this. Really it should work.

May the 'force' be with you.....or should I say:  Forces......
