There are no publicly-available patents for Steven Mark's TPU,

Hey Poynt

Does that mean that there are/were patents, but are just not available to the public? And if so, were they ever public?

Waveguide creates a spinning vortex straight dc no pulsing

Hey Dave

Are we looking at 2 electrically separated triangular coils here?  Also, are you saying that if we input dc to one coil we get dc output of the other?

Hey Mags
I hooked the coils in series, not sure how to tap the field yet, maybe with a collector coil like SM did.
Need to experiment with it.

SM stated a couple of times that there ARE patents covering the control unit. Apparently there were 14 patents (not 13 as I previously posted) covering the control circuitry in various segments. Hard to say if they were ever public.

I had searched extensively for patents issued to "Steven Mark", "UEC", and "Universal Energy Corporation" with no luck.

Attached is the latest version of the TPU FAQ.

A few pertinent quotes from SM about the patents:

QuoteThere are several parts of the power unit which have patents. Remember that the power unit technology is owned by the UEC (Universal Energy Corporation) and I have to be very careful about not stepping on their toes. I am not afraid of them or anything like that. It is just that they are the legitimate owners of the patents and most of the research etc. I would not like to break my trust with them.

QuoteThe patents are in several segments pertaining only to the control units not the collector coil itself,...

QuoteIt is possible to get results using transistors because after all, the patented control units owned by UEC are solid state.

QuoteAll the patents issued on the technology are related to the control parts only. there are 14 patents in all as i remember. non of them are revealing in nature as to the technology itself.

QuoteBY THE WAY! If someone could locate all 14 patents they would have all the information needed to make a perfect control unit..... No wonder everyone is so interested in where the patents are.
I am firmly convinced that UEC was bought out long ago.

From Lindsay:

Quotethere are many patents that do not refer to energy generation
they are under protection .(as i have been told)
a waste of time looking but search away.
