Yes, more or less the principle is shown.  But there must be a smaller than the big ball enclosure around the big ball from nonmagnetic material which is -for simplicity- is equipped with 2 wheels at one side and with two wheels on the other to move smoothly inside a pipe of rigid wall. The four small wheels of the enclosure would work like a linear ball bearing but inside of a tube.

I agree this solution would not be good for your chaingenerator because it includes sharp bends in the pipe  but it would be good for a bigger regular circle shaped pipe.
