SMOT

[TechStuf]

The SMOT demonstrates principles that are largely misunderstood and far from optimally exploited.? One could do better to consider an overbalancing wheel option which employs similar dynamics but for a reversal of materials and makes use of magnetic induction on the falling side such that a capacitor collects energy and provides power for a well timed EM pulse by way of an efficient electromagnet.


This breaks a single magnet free to close the loop.


"All for one and one for all"


You get the idea....


Or is it:


"All for one and two for tea" you see...

Here is something interesting.  If you applied the convention vertically in stead of horizontally, mounting the balls on a non-ferrous arm and outside of the track that they travel place your magnets, so that there is only one magnet breaking free at a time and the force of attraction of the remaining (in the concept picture posted: 7) balls would overcome the sticking point for the one that is breaking free.  There would not be a balance point. 
I call it the ferrous wheel, in hommage to TS's apparent affinity to word play.

Comments?

Well, I can't say it's all play, and my greater affinity is for infinity.......hey,? I see what you mean!




P.S.

Ferrous Wheel,? I liked that!? And the descriptor below the diagram....."He that seeks to master the wheel, must first possess ______ of ______"


Kysmett,? I gotta say....I like your style of inspiration.  You might be close to something new, here.

Geeeeez!  Am I the only one who sees my posts??? 

[Kysmett]

Ken, 

Yes, I saw it.  In fact I drew quite a bit from it.  There is another post that I tried to illustrate that I think has fallen on deaf ears, and in hindsight it was inferior to this one.  I take in everything I read and try to build on it.  Thanks for the inspiration and I hope that I have returned the favor.  Sorry for the lack of recognition.  I read so much that half the time I forget where I am drawing from, only that 'I read somewhere.."
You said you were working on something to this effect, I hope that I haven't stepped on your toes or anything.  Let me know how this is going.
