Ricks Pipe Dream

[nyctuber]

Another false statement from the OU disinformation specialist.  I have made it very clear where the energy to move the stator will come from, and this can be easily summed as follows:
1. The power of magnetic interactions of attraction, repulsion, and accelleration.
2. Inertial momentum of the accellerated mass.

I have also made clear the methods I will be using to take advantage of these forces.  Nothing that I have done, or am currently doing, is unknown or left unexplained.  I have thoroughly documented every step that I have taken, and all of these steps have shown useful information and positive results.

These forces are convincingly powerful enough, when combined, to offer the solution which has previously evaded a great many experimenters and made itself known to only a very few.  My aim is only to rediscover what works, and make this information available to all.  What is your purpose here?  You needn't answer that question, as I'm quite sure that the rest of us already have a pretty good understanding of your purpose here, and aren't interested in hearing any more of your negative perceptions, outright deceptions, and innuendos.

My purpose is to point out the obvious, about using or momentum or the 90 degree rule to create a magnetic perpetual motion machine. I'ts all been tried before, none of it has worked. If you make it work, then good for you. My initial questions about your device met with zero answers from 'the fans,' and I was directed to a 30 page messageboard showing the construction of what appeared to be a simple magnetic wheel/ stator arrangement. When I asked for a summation, not really wanting to sift through 30 pages, I got no answer.

My point is this:

If you're doing a magnet wheel project, it will save ALOT of time and unnecessary arguing if you simply lay out your plan from day one. I'm not really even a critic of people trying interesting projects, I just cant stand the madness surrounding 'hope science.'

You do seem to have a plan, it would have been nice to know about it from day one. That's all.

There you go again, nyctuber, hoping to convince others that your blatant attacks, insults, and outright lies were of honorable intentions.  If anyone is interested in what you have to say then let him step forward and say that he stands with you.  After that, it would be best if all who do stand with you simply take your b.s. elsewhere, because it will be understood that no one else is interested in hearing it. Frankly, I would have thought that this forum would have rules of proper conduct that should have ousted you from further participation in discussion threads long ago.  My advice to you is to find another thread or forum with a subject that you truly are interested in - perhaps one where the participants all enjoy abusing others, and also being abused by them.

Good luck to you in your search,

Rick 

Oh, I nearly forgot to mention it but the "plan" that you speak of is quite well documented in my videos if you take the time to watch them.  But of course you won't, since you are not really interested.

Yeah, none of my posts were attacking in nature, until the true believers needed a scapegoat. Yes, I wondered if you'd had a brain injury. I thought I remembered you from a few years ago talking about it. It wasn't an attack, but for some reason people need a scapegoat to rail against.

A more mature approach would to simply acknowledge the understandable skepticism when seeing what appears to be a simple magnet wheel. Not everyone feels like watching 16 videos or reading 30 messageboard pages which seem to be showing the construction of a conventional magnet wheel/ movable stator setup. I'm not going to be your scapegoat for voicing normal skepticism. It's pretty sad how sensitive inventors/tinkerers seem to be. Grow up.

Deleted a long post with questions.
Simpler to say keep us informed of your progress.  And good luck.

@ New York: There is no logical reason for your so-called "skepticism" here, which in actuality is nothing of the kind. If it was legitimate, you would have waited to see more of the actual outcome before trying every trick in the book to dis the project; and you would have more to offer than your continually repeated opinions... Which certainly do not gain in worth by the repetition.

Now you are claiming to be a "scape goat" lol... So you are the "victim" here, eh? That one's a classic

Poor little New York: Trying to save the world from magnet motors... No one understands you.

...You are understood, alright

And what it boils down to is this: A cynical attempt to use this site's dedication to Free Speech against itself.

rickoff - thanks for sharing your device.  Some thoughts...

rick - The movement of the stator WILL impart SOME of the rotational energy into the wheel.  True, a larger % will come from the magnetic interactions, but the MOTION of the stator will impart rotational energy to the wheel.  This imparted rotational energy from the stator will then require greater output from the wheel - and so on - kind of a mini catch-22.

I believe you are attempting to move the stator in the most efficient way, rotating it the way you are.
Trying to 'pulse' the stator up and down required lifting the weight of the stator, AND seperating magnets in this direction required the most energy.
Another method would be to 'twist' the stator along the horizontal axis.  Better than up and down, but still not as good as the rotation you are using.

I am unclear as to HOW you are going to move the stator... how will will it be linked to the wheel etc..

Thanks

Hi captain, 

You are correct in that the stator HAS to move to provide continuous rotation, but once the stator is moved to the proper position, rotation continues through the forces of repulsion and attraction with no stator movement (and for a good distance) until the next positioning movement is required.  And, nothing about the stator movement imparts any rotational force to the wheel other than the magnetic interactions that are involved.

To understand how I am going to attempt to move the stator, you must first take the image of the stator arm that I have been using completely out of your mind.  The actual stator arrangement will look nothing like this.  It will be as lightweight as possible, and I will probably be using clear Lexan to mount the stator so that we all have a clear view of what is going on when looking down upon it from overhead.  The Lexan mount will pivot freely on a non-magnetic shaft that will project downwards towards the rotor from above it, with the pivot point aligned at the centerline of the wheel rim and the pin set at an 8 degree angle to correspond to the slope of the rim.  This allows the height of the stator magnet to be constantly maintained.  Now because the stator will pivot, it will swing in a concentric arc, across the rim, and this I see as being very important.  That's because each point of movement occurs at the tail end of a magnet group, where repulsion is used to accellerate the group further along. The arcing motion allows the stator magnet to actually chase after the group, providing the strongest repulsion effect possible.  The way my stator arm is now pivoting, from the outer frame post, the pivot point is incorrect.  It does allow chasing a magnet group when swung in one direction, but moves the stator away from the tail end of a group when moved in the opposite direction.  So the new stator will be far more effective at achieving higher rotational velocities due to full accelleration bursts with every movement.  The stator mount will be connected, at the end farthest from the pivot, to a linkage which connects directly to what I would prefer to call the tracking carriage.  This carriage will be a device that rides upon a monorail track.  Just picture a monorail train, and I think you will get the idea.  For best operation, the tracking carriage will need to be suspended from a sliding mechanism mounted above it,  which will allow stable but free linear horizontal movement.  The track will be mounted somewhere beyond the outer perimeter of the bike wheel (most likely about 3 inches from the rim edge), where the greatest leverage is afforded.  The track will slowly snake inwards and outwards at exactly the points that are needed to maintain absolutely perfect timing, and the tracking carriage will follow the track in perfect harmony.  Each movement of the carriage, inward or outward, will result in the desired movement of the stator via the carriage to stator mount linkage rod.

So there you have it, in a nutshell so to speak.  As the videos progress, I will be showing the materials that I will be using to accomplish this.  Since I always like to utilize low cost methods for testing my ideas, I will not be building the tracking system using the best available materials, such as ceramic bearings for the stator pivot and the tracking carriage, but I think it will be good enough to show that the idea does at least have merit for further study and enhancement.

Do you have the picture now, and have I explained this well enough?  Much of this has been mentioned by me in the comments sections of my videos, but you may not have read all of that.  It is also mentioned in my builder plans, which are available to anyone serious about building the apparatus and becoming a part of this project.  Those who are interested should e-mail me (rickandlezel@hotmail.com) and request a link to download the construction pdf file.  Please don't anyone e-mail me with questions, as I will never be able to respond to them.  I will answer any polite questions that arise here, however, (or at least as many as I have time for) and that will give everyone a chance to see the answers.  Most everything, though, is completely spelled out in both words and photos in the builders pdf, so please refer to that before asking something.

Thanks, and best wishes,

Rick
