Magnet Motor from Argentina, part2

[joe]

Hello Craigy,

I just watched your video on Youtube and i was thinking about the same thing except than i am using a half donut magnet.
I have a lock at the center (like yours) so that center stator magnet is (I think but not sure) unuseful concerning giving torque. On my next try, I will concentrate on 2 stators, one on each end of the ring magnet. One stator gets pull up by the upper magnet (I will fix a little neo magnet on top of the wheel so when the wheel is turning it is catching the stator up)  so that rotor is now ready to pull the rotor to the other end and finally at the other end the next stator "waits" for the rotor to be at exactly at the right position  for the final push. And then the same process is repeat again and again.
Right now It is only an assumption and it may not work but i will give a try by the end of the week.

Have a good day,

Joe

Hi Joe and everybody,

Well in my frustration replicating the torbay ramp; to push the stators down i am trying a see saw. It should be ready for testing soon as i have fixed a beam over the rotor via bearings. i am hoping that the rotor will seek the gap from one side to another. in principle it seems to work by hand, and uses the torbay principle of chasing the gap. it just raises 2 stators instead of all 8. i t may turn out to be a lemon, but someone has to try

oh and a photo why not?

Where has everybody gone?
I'm still trying, perhaps its a lemon, but no one is telling me so LOL.

So here is another video, the Torbay Hybrid, I will try and raise the stators using the trick of a magnet on the Rotor. it worked well in the standard torbay. I can only Try!!

Hi Craigy

you are doing a fine job mate, but all of the designs come back to the point of getting past that sticky point.

I have tried many designs and like yourself gone for the practical rather than the theory (it amazing what you can learn from feeling those magnetic flux's through the hand), but they all come down to the sticky point.

My main approach now is down to finding out how to get past that sticky point, in the form of shielding/redirecting the magnetic field.

I think your design is excellent in producing the Torque and speed that will be indeed needed to produce the motion to drive a small alternator, but until you get the full rotation you are at the same point as the rest of us.

Even though their are many people on these forums that have gone through all the stuff we are probably trying, I do not see a collection of trial and error devices listed. So till then we battle on and learn as we go along.

Keep it up mate and well done.

Regards

Sean.
