Overunity Device using Magnets in the 1920's ?

[tak22]

Hans,

Greetings from the mild west of Canada! Does your 'more elegant' system still involve any moving/pivoting/swinging/rotating/pushing parts? No need to divulge yet, just curious to know if I should think of a better design than my current one, which has movement reduced to just linear motion of a transfer rod through a guide bearing.

I'm still not sure this can be done without a horseshoe style magnet. Can't know for sure until tried I guess.

@ tak,

I share your view with the horseshoe magnet as I think a clean north and a clean south is required, not a combination of both on either side, but maybe that does not matter if the magnets are long enough. Experiment will tell.

My concept drawing and animation of the motor are finished.I am now working on the write-up. I should have it up by tomorrow sometime barring the unforeseen

Btw. The new design has no rods and no spring.

I have been thinking I had seen something like this before. Finally found it.

This guy was doing something like this with magnets and pivots.  You might want to look at his stuff too.

hansvonlieven, I am assuming you will be using a pulsed power source for the input and I am wondering if you have considered using the back EMF from the relay to enhance the output?

This next video link will give you a idea of what I am talking about.

G'day Nightlife and all,

You are correct in assuming that my device requires a pulsed power source. I have not thought about using back EMF. At this stage I want to get the mechanical problems out of the road and get a prototype running. There are considerable problems yet to be addressed in relation to the timing mechanism. Once these are overcome we will need to have a look if we can utilise back EMF.

It is early days yet.

Thanks for your contributions and suggestions. They are welcome.
