Abstract
Apparatus for controlling an electromagnetic engine. The apparatus includes a signal generator, such as a device that plays a pre-recorded signal. The output of the signal generator is connected to an amplifier that is connected to one or more coils. The coils are positioned around a cylindrical cavity or sleeve in which a permanent magnet piston reciprocates in response to the amplified signal applied to the coils. The signal includes a plurality of snippets that forms a half-wave signal. The signal has an initial or starting portion and a steady state portion. The starting portion of the signal comprises a series of the snippets at selected intervals. The steady state portion comprises a series of the snippets that are repeated and alternatingly inverted to simulate a sine wave or other waveform.
Claims20
An apparatus for energy conversion, said apparatus comprising:
- a signal source having an output providing a signal, said signal including a plurality of snippets, each one of said plurality of snippets defined by a specific waveform, said plurality of snippets defining a series of snippets;
- an amplifier electrically connected to said output of said signal source, said amplifier having an amplifier output;
- a coil assembly electrically connected to said amplifier output, said coil assembly generating a magnetic field in response to said amplifier output;
- a first magnet engaging said magnetic field generated by said coil assembly, said first magnet constrained to move in one axis with a reciprocal motion in response to said magnetic field;
- and
- a load coupled to said first magnet, said load including a converter providing rotary motion in response to said reciprocal motion.
An apparatus for energy conversion, said apparatus comprising:
- a driver having a signal source and an amplifier, said signal source providing a signal to said amplifier, said signal including a loop segment that includes a snippet, said snippet defined as a portion of a half-wave of an alternating signal, said loop segment repeated to form a continuous stream;
- and
- a motor having winding and a motor magnet configured to move relative to said winding, said winding in electrical communication with said amplifier, when said winding is energized said winding produces a magnetic field that engages said motor magnet, thereby causing a relative motion, and said motor configured to connect to a load.
