Abstract
A method of creating aeronautical lift is described which uses a fast voltage electrostatic force to rapidly simultaneously move the top and bottom surfaces of a lifting device downward, followed by a slow voltage electrostatic force to slowly simultaneously return the top and bottom surfaces to their original positions. This cyclic movement reduces downward air pressure on the top surface of the lifting device and increases air pressure on the bottom surface of the lifting device, thus producing aeronautical lift.
Claims17
A method of operating an aeronautical device by simultaneously reducing downward air pressure on a top surface of a lifting device and increasing air pressure on a bottom surface of said lifting device, said method comprising:
- simultaneously moving said top surface and said bottom surface of said lifting device downward at a first rate;
- and
- simultaneously moving said top surface and said bottom surface of said lifting device upward at a second rate;
- wherein said first rate is faster than said second rate;
- further comprising:
- fabricating said top surface of said lifting device as a top piston;
- fabricating said bottom surface of said lifting device as a bottom piston;
- fabricating a grounded support plate between said top piston and said bottom piston of said lifting device;
- connecting said top piston and said bottom piston of said lifting device together, said connecting to cause said top piston and said bottom piston of said lifting device to move together;
- applying a first voltage to said top piston, said first voltage being sufficient to cause a downward electrostatic attraction between said top piston and said grounded support plate;
- removing said first voltage from said top piston;
- applying a second voltage to said bottom piston, said second voltage being sufficient to cause an upward electrostatic attraction between said bottom piston and said grounded support plate;
- removing said second voltage from said bottom piston;
- and
- repeatedly applying and removing said first voltage to said top piston and said second voltage to said bottom piston;
- wherein the first voltage is different than the second voltage;
- and
- maintaining a vacuum between bottom side of said top piston and said grounded support plate and between top side of said bottom piston and said grounded support plate.
