Conversion and control of electrical energy by electromagnetic induction

In an electromagnetic induction control means,

• laminated magnetic means having parallel surfaces,
• a plurality of aperture means including a central aperture means through said magnetic means.
• a continuous conductor means threaded through said aperture means,
• said continuous conductor means configured in the form of a segmented toroidal winding a diameter of which extends from one of said parallel surface to a second of said parallel surfaces,
• said central aperture means being the center of said toroidal winding and perpendicular to said diameter,
• said toroidal winding producing an incremental increase in magnetic flux within said magnetic means in response to incremental increases in electric current through said conductor.

In an electromagnetic induction control means,

• laminated magnetic means,
• a plurality of aperture means in said laminated magnetic means disposed to form a segmented toroid,
• one of said aperture means located along the central axis of said toroid,
• an electrical conducting means disposed through said central aperture and each of said plurality of apertures and around the outside of said magnetic means in diametrically opposed positions,
• said conducting means providing a magnetic field of toroidal configuration having minimum field strength at the ouside surfaces of said magnetic means,
• whereby progressive field strength changes produce continuously variable permeance within said induction control means.

In an electromagnetic induction control means,

• laminated magnetic means, having properties compatible with the magnetic properties of the structure in which the control is utilized,
• a plurality of aperture means disposed through said magnetic means,
• said aperture means being shaped to present minimum reduction of the material of said magnetic means,
• said aperture means being aligned with their centers on a line perpendicular to the outer surfaces of said laminated magnetic means,
• an electrical conduction means discretely wound through said plurality of aperture means,
• the minimum number of turns of said conducting means being located between the central-most of said aperture means,
• windings through succeeding outwardly disposed aperture means being increased in number with the maximum number of windings being at the outer surface of said magnetic means,
• whereby progressive field strength changes produce continuously variable effectiveness of said induction control means.

In an electromagnetic induction control means,

• laminated magnetic means having magnetic properties compatible with the magnetic properties of the structure in which the control is utilized,
• a central aperture means disposed through each lamina of said magnetic means,
• said laminated magnetic means having a first and a second outer lamina,
• said electrical conducting means wound with a minimum of turns about said first outer lamina through said central aperture means therein,
• the number of turns on each succeeding lamina adjacent said first outer lamina being continuously increased to a maximum number of turns on said second outer layer,
• whereby progressive field strength changes produce continuously variable effectiveness of said induction control means.
