Yu oscillating Generator ---- Overunity YOG Model

[WattBuilder]

Happyfunball,

I’m a little disappointed in the video upload to YouTube. There seems to be a slight audio delay. The drive magnet’s north pole is in the front of the travel direction where you see the iron. The attraction is due to the south pole on the backside of the drive magnet pulling towards the north’s on the array.


Stefan,

Well, I was thinking that if I could prove energy gains from the array then everything else to prove on the YOG would be self explanatory. 

When calculating energy (force x distance) the start of the length should really begin just right after the sticky spot because the magnets pushes the lever through the array.

The force meter shows force at a certain point between sticky spot to the floor.


Mr bojangles,

I tried to factor out gravity as much as possible for this experiment. But in order to keep the lever from floating around ( weight less ) there is a slight over balance to the top on purpose.

The difference of 1.3 lbs is not the gravity. That’s why the very first measurement was the lever. In the video it show less than 0.1 lbs.

The track does over come the friction. You can clearly see it pushing it through with the drag on the lever.

Howard,

I really like what you have done so far.

Question:
Any luck on making the magnet flip on its own when the arm reaches one side or another?

I have been thinking about it and I have NOT been able to come up with a method that I am sure would work.

Hey Rich,

The graphic below shows a method that I have tested successfully,   It works quite well with fairly heavy weights on top of the pendulum.  I have not tested the rig with a magnetic ramp yet.  I was attempting to test the idea that the reversing action pumps the pendulum.  I have successfully made that automatic reverser which is driven by air resistance.  I have not proven the pumping action yet so maybe Howard is on to something with his magentic ramp. My pendulum is about 10' tall so there is plenty of time during the swing for the fin to reverse the magnet before it reaches top center on the return trip.  As I mentioned, I have not proven the self pumping action, but I need to rebuild my rig with better balance and better bearings etc. to give it a fair test.

The tail fin I made from a plastic lid off a large coffee can which is just the right stiffness and is easy to cut out and puncture for mounting.  You could attach a much larger fin if you want the action to be more pronounced.  It is interesting to watch and it does effectively reverse the top weight on each half of the cycle.

I hope Howard tries it on his apparatus.

el-tigre,

Thank you for your thoughts. You choose an interesting way to do this. I was not thinking along those lines.

I will have to do some testing.
