Abstract
An electromechanical propulsion system is disclosed. The propulsion system uses magnetic propulsion and magnetic bearings to move a vehicle. The propulsion system is well suited for use on land, air, space, above water and underwater vehicles. The propulsion system includes a plurality of electromagnets that repel each other with strong and weak magnets to move the propulsion motor in linear motion. Multiple side propulsion motors can be incorporated to alter the direction of travel of the electromechanical propulsion system. The propulsion system is manufacturable in a self contained configuration where it is controllable from a remote location.
Claims20
A electromagnetic propulsion system comprising:
- four separate electromagnets each having their own wireless receiver, power source and power controller;
- a first and a fourth of said four separate electromagnets connected to an inner frame structure such that they levitate together floating freely on free floating magnetic bearings;
- a second and a third of said four separate electromagnets connected to an outer frame whereby said second electromagnet repels said first electromagnet and said third electromagnet repels said fourth electromagnet
- said repelling forces thereby creates an imbalance between said magnetic fields that creates unidirectional stresses between said inner and outer frame structure that translates said inner frame on said outer frame.
