US 2022/0045593 A1 · ENERGY GENERATION

Abstract

An energy generation apparatus comprises a first element comprising at least one first magnet and a second element comprising at least one second magnet. The second element is movable with respect to the first element. The at least one first magnet and the at least one second magnet are oriented such that common poles of the at least one first and second magnets are temporarily in proximity to each other such that a repulsive magnetic force between the at least one first magnet and at least one second magnet causes relative motion between the first and second elements. Preferred embodiments of the apparatus comprise at least one positioning element or cam comprising an undulating or wave-like surface to control a position and/or an orientation of the at least one first magnet and/or the at least one second magnet.
