2 Parralel Sliding Rotors Leap Frogging Around the Stator Magnets

[gravityblock]

2 parallel rotors leap frogging around the stator magnets. There is 1 magnet on the top rotor and 1 magnet on the bottom rotor. There are two stator magnets.  The bottom stator magnet only interacts with the bottom rotor magnet, and the top stator magnet only interacts with the top rotor magnet. If I do this to the other side, then it should be able to self-run ( I hope ).

I've already began testing and it looks really promising at this moment. Enjoy!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrT2rkHnMfw

Hmmm... It makes sense... Try it, man!!

In the video I posted, I had 2 stators.  I can now say it works with 3 stators.  I haven't been able to get 4 stators to work yet in order to close the loop and to have a self-runner.  At this time, I believe it is only an alignment, measurement and a poor build issue.

Here's a detailed explanation behind the theory of the device.  1)  Top rotor is attracted to the top stator magnet and drags the lower rotor with it.  2)  At TDC, the top rotor magnet yaws into position with the top stator magnet while the bottom rotor freely passes.  3)  Bottom rotor approaches the bottom stator magnet and has enough kinetic energy to free the top rotor magnet in the previous step and it also yaws into register at TDC.  4)   Top rotor approaches the top stator magnet on the other side, and has enough kinetic energy to free the bottom rotor magnet in the previous step and it also yaws into register at TDC.   5)  The process will repeat indefinitely.

We're basically borrowing energy, then as we are giving this energy back we are also taking energy again to be paid back in the next cycle.  We should always remain 1 step ahead.

I'll continue working on this build because I think it is very promising.  I would love to hear of any ideas, suggestions, thoughts, or questions.

Thanks,

It looks interesting and worth trying some fine tuning and a 4th stator.  However if one assumes the kinetic or inertial energy comes from the magnets in the first place I'm having a hard time seeing where any extra energy will be present to make a self running device.  But I think it is always good to pursue a real test as you never know what you might find that wasn't obvious on the drawing board.  Good luck.

I'm going to abandon this design and work on a more improved version having 2 counter rotating rotors using the same basic principals.  This will allow each rotor to be continuously moving in opposite directions without the need for them to stop.  I'll start another thread once I begin the build process.
