Abstract
A motor or generator has a design that allows resistive magnetic forces that restrict the movement of the rotor to be diminished, thus increasing efficiency. A pivoting rotor design allows magnets on the rotor to break the magnetic field first in the center of the rotor due to the attraction of other magnets. The generator or motor includes a drive shaft, and at least one generator or motor stage including two stators interleaved with one rotor having a plurality of pivoting frames each including at least one magnet.
Claims30
A rotor for use in a generator or motor comprising:
- a hub having a central hole for receiving a rotation shaft;
- a plurality of frames attached to the hub in a manner that allows the frame to flex or pivot with respect to the hub;
- and
- a plurality of magnets, wherein at least one magnet is attached to each frame.
A generator or motor comprising:
- a first stator;
- a second stator;
- and
- a rotor that rotates between the first and second stators, wherein the rotor comprises a hub having a central hole for receiving a rotation shaft, a plurality of frames attached to the hub in a manner that allows the frame to flex or pivot with respect to the hub, and a plurality of magnets, wherein at least one magnet is attached to each frame.
A generator or motor comprising:
- a first plurality of stators;
- and
- a second plurality of rotors,
- wherein the second plurality is one less than the first plurality, each rotor rotates between adjacent stators, and each rotor comprises a hub having a central hole for receiving a rotation shaft, a plurality of frames attached to the hub in a manner that allows the frame to flex or pivot with respect to the hub, and a plurality of magnets, wherein at least one magnet is attached to each frame.
A method of saving energy in a generator or motor comprising a stator and a rotor comprising:
- providing a rotor having a plurality of frames, each frame having at least one magnet;
- and
- attaching the frames to a hub of the rotor in a manner that allows each frame to having a flexing or oscillating movement with respect to the hub, such that the flexing or oscillating movement reduces the resistance to movement by easing breaking of the magnetic force between the magnets of the rotor and a coil of the stator.
A generator or motor comprising:
- a rail;
- and
- a skate that slides across the rail, wherein the skate comprises:
- an upper portion having a plurality of frames attached to the upper portion in a manner that allows the frame to flex or pivot with respect to the upper portion, and a plurality of magnets, wherein at least one magnet is attached to each frame;
- and
- a lower portion having a plurality of frames attached to the lower portion in a manner that allows the frame to flex or pivot with respect to the upper portion, and a plurality of magnets, wherein at least one magnet is attached to each frame.
A method of saving energy in a generator or motor comprising a fixed portion and a movable portion comprising:
- providing the movable portion with a plurality of frames, each frame having at least one magnet;
- and
- attaching the frames to the movable portion in a manner that allows each frame to having a flexing or oscillating movement with respect to the hub, such that the flexing or oscillating movement reduces the resistance to movement by easing breaking of the magnetic force between the magnets of the movable portion and a coil of the fixed portion.
