pulse motor Working video and info

[Nastrand2000]

hey Borg,

hi jason,

..what i think im seeing here is your making about 200 watts or volts ?( im not sure i dont know how power works what so ever)....are you able to hook up a light bulb ?...or a fan ?...or plugin a desktop pc ?...

What you are seeing is voltage. Volts * Amps = watts per hour. This video is just to demonstrate the collapsing magnetic field in the coil after the driving pulse to that coil. The capacitor can be discharged into a battery to charge it.

...and i can only guess , your useing maybe a 12volt car battery to run this ?...

I am using a variable power supply. I can set it from 0 - 30 volts, and 0 - 3 amps. This is very helpful when you want to try different voltages and amperage with these motors.

..(yet more guessing questions) ...in your coil is there a magnet that attracts the other 4 magents on the rotor ?

The coil has an air core. This means that i does not use iron or magnets in its center. The coil is bifilar, meaning I used two wires while winding it. Think of it like wrapping a lamp cord around a broom handle.

. and each time a magnet is attracted you send a pulse to the coil and that then reverses the pull just for a sec to make a push to bring the next magent around on the rotor ?

See previous statement.

and you pulse the coil again and so on ?

The coil pulses twice per revolution. The magnets are north south north south.  The coil only fires when the north face of the magnet passes by the coil. When the magnet passes by the coil, it creates enough voltage thru the second winding to turn the transistor on and allow power to flow to the driving coil.

...and there is another coil wound around with the pulse coil to capture the back spike( i think../shrug)..and your storing this back effect or what ever it is ?.

No, the other coil is used to fire the transistor. The spike happens in the driving coil and thats where it is captured. Please see reply # 41 @ http://www.overunity.com/index.php/topic,2552.30.html

sorry for sounding like a morron but i am when it comes to this stuff..but im asking because i want to get this right in my head.

Thank you.

No one is a moron, we all have to start somewhere. I'm happy to help if I can.

Borgie, dont worry this forum is created for morons like you and me to learn!  . I'm just thankful that indivduals like Jason are willing to teach as they learn in an open source method. Not 3 pages ago Jason taught me how to use my multimeter lol.

Jase, I pulled apart my machine, cause I think your right in perfecting one coil before moving onto two, or ten for that matter.

I tried to hook up a transistor with a diode like your diagram, except my pick up coil and power coil wound on one. It made some crazy bleep/screeh noise and stayed on till I disconnected power. Transistor built up a fair amount of heat. I didnt have a variable resistor installed, just the diode.

Do you think my wheel could be creating interference? It is a metal rim, far from ideal I hear, but it was all I had, and made positioning the magnets easy. Is there enough time for the transistor to switch off? Maybe time to fabricate another.

Most likely I have inferior parts, Im pretty sure the wiring was correct. I have a transistor bedini ssg plans coming this week with some hall sensors, but id like to learn how to fire it without the hall as well.

Ren,
Its sounds like the negative and positive were backward. One thing I have found to help me know which way to hook it up right is by using an ammeter while hooking it up. If current is flowing without the wheel move it is probable because the negative and positive are switched.

Ren,
One other thing occured to me. Make sure that your trigger coil has a 1 k ohm resistor inline with it. You can change this value so that your motor will run faster or slower. Experiment with it, say 500 ohm to 1.5 k ohm.

switched negative and positive and no crazy sound, just constantly on. Doesnt matter if theres a magnet there or not. Think my transistor is fried.
