This must work! Altering magnetic field without cost. OU or not?

Your idea is interesting but most people (including myself) don't understand how the
motor is built and how it's supposed to work. The pictures is not very self-explanatory.

OK. I will try to explain.

All the biggest stator magnets are connected to the lowest joint. The smallest stator magnets are linked as pairs, and are connected to the upper joint. This connection is made of something strong and non flexible material - rods, so to speak.

When the rotor turns, the joints will follow the rotor because the joints are fixed to the rotor, and therefor it will continously change the position of the magnets - like pistons in an engine. (or like pistons in a radial engine, for those who knows what that is)

This means that the magnets positions will follow the rotor around, means that the magnets closest to the rotor will allways be closest to the same place on the rotor all the time - except that there is allways the next magnet that is closest, or farthest off the rotor as the rotor turns. That means that the stator magnets cannot rotate - they are fixed sideways, and are therefor only allowed to move towards or away from the rotor - like a radial engine.

Does this help?

I will present another design too with only an iron rotor - that later. But first it is important to understand the mechanics. I'll wait untill someone says they understand the mechanics.

2D program cant calculate magnetic field problem - only 3D ( Maxwell 3D, JmagStudio ets)

As long as the problem is 2D Femm will do.
What I miss in 2D programs is the ability to see the magnetic lines if I have for instance a ringmagnet where the poles was pointing towards center. Meaning that I cannot see the magnetic lines which is angular to the 2D surface. And Femm cannot calculate whith it then. However, In these experiments I dont need 3D.

If you have a copy of Maxwell 3D, I would like to have a copy of it too

Since I like ideas that are based on 'chasing tails', I started with a small proof of principle, first only to find out if the forces in 2 opposite magnet "combs" are giving a sum of zero force for gliding i and out. I already found out that it is not so easy to build a construction that handles these forces.
