Abstract
A magnetic momentum transfer generator utilizes three or more magnets aligned with each other. A first control magnet is positioned outside a coil. A second magnet is positioned within the windings of the coil and a third magnet is positioned on the opposite side of the coil opposite the control magnet. When the control magnet rotated or moved, mutual magnetic flux lines generated by all three magnets and passing through the coil winding are aligned at right angles to the coil, thereby inducing a maximum voltage at the terminals. This generator is particularly useful for short burst radio micro-transmitters that can be used for battery-less and wireless switching applications.
Claims20
An electrical generator comprising:
- a plurality of turns of wire forming a coil, the plurality of turns of wire having a first terminal end and a second terminal end;
- a first magnet positioned adjacent the coil;
- a second magnet positioned within the coil and configured to rotate on an axis of rotation;
- and
- a third magnet positioned adjacent the coil,
- wherein the first magnet and the third magnet are arranged symmetrically about the axis of rotation, wherein a first magnetic field exists between the first magnet and the second magnet and a second magnetic field exists between the third magnet and the second magnet, and voltage is induced at the first terminal end and the second terminal end in response to the second magnet being rotated.
A method comprising:
- rotating a first magnet about a first axis of rotation, wherein the first magnet is disposed within a coil formed by a plurality of turns of wire;
- and
- inducing a voltage between a first terminal end of the plurality of turns of wire and a second terminal end of the plurality of turns of wire, the inducing caused by the rotating of the first magnet and based on a first magnetic field between the first magnet and a second magnet positioned adjacent the coil and a second magnetic field between the first magnet and a third magnet positioned adjacent the coil, wherein the second magnet and the third magnet are arranged symmetrically about the first axis of rotation.
