New magnet motor approach

[skycaptain]

So my first attempt will be in repelling mode....i dont know if i explained it good enough

I did some work today, heres a link to my video i just made that shows what i did....the horshoe clamp is only temporary

i tried uploading it to here but it wouldnt load for some reason...so here it is on youtube.

Hi all:

Has anybody tried this magnetic shield? Is it real or what? It seems TGTBT for me but who knows.

I put 2 magnets on each rotor in repell and i used plastic bags to make the magnets snug so they fit tight...and just from messing around with it too much i loosened the screws that held down the top rotor....so heres a video of it

Hi,

Thank you for the explanations and the drawings.  Now I understand how you mean the setup is supposed to work. Well, I hope you are right and the good thing is you are building it and soon will be in a position to test it.

I think the most critical  point is when a  rotor magnet just comes out from the cover of the shield, just receives the needed repel kick and encounters a repel force from the second (almost but not yet facing) magnet on the other rotor. Then this repel force continues to appear in a gradually reducing  intensity as the rotor proceeds further on, depending on the angle between the two rotors. If there is enough reserve/margin to compensate these repel forces with attraction forces elsewhere, then you have a working motor!

For the time being I cannot see any negative thing in your setup that may hamper the operation of your setup. Of course you have to consider the friction the gear will introduce too but it should be a question of the strength of the magnets used.
