US 2014/0191595 A1 · Device and Control System for Producing Electrical Power

Abstract

Briefly, the invention involves a system and method for generating electrical power. The system includes an electromagnet positioned with one pole directed toward a like pole of a permanent magnet. The permanent magnet is preferably mounted for oscillating movement toward the pole of the electromagnet. A control system for the electromagnet is provided to supply direct current (DC) power in the form of square wave pulses which coincide with the position of the permanent magnet. Power is collected upon the collapse of the magnetic field within the electromagnetic magnet. In some embodiments the present device is supplied in the form of a reciprocating engine which provides rotary motion in addition to the electrical power generated.

Dependent claims

A device for producing electrical power comprising:

a permanent magnet having a pair of magnetic poles defining a longitudinal axis of said permanent magnet;
an electromagnet assembly having a pair of magnetic poles defining a longitudinal axis of said electromagnet;
a structure for securing and aligning said magnetic poles such that a distal end of said permanent magnet and said electromagnet assembly are in close proximity with respect to each other and such that said magnetic poles provide an opposing force with respect to each other;
a timing/firing system electrically connected to a source of electrical power and said electromagnet assembly for causing the electromagnet assembly to generate a magnetic field in a controlled manner which includes collapsing said magnetic field to generate an electrical pulse;
an output electrically connected to said electromagnet assembly for collecting and distributing said electrical pulse.
