Abstract
A magnetic generator may be disclosed. The magnetic generator may include one or more permanent magnets which may function in one or more ways in combination with a dielectric elastomer to efficiently produce electricity. Electricity may be produced directly by the magnets, through mechanical means as driven by the magnets, by piezoelectric means, or as desired to maintain peak efficiency. Further, systems to retain excess energy for later use, such as a flywheel or a battery may be employed.
Claims11
A magnetic power generator, comprising:
- a first magnet having a pole movable between proximate a first position and at least one first distal position;
- a second magnet having a pole movable between proximate the first position and at least one second distal position;
- wherein, when the pole of the first magnet and the pole of the second magnet are proximate the first position, the poles exert a repelling force on each other, wherein work is done by at least one dielectric elastomer cushion disposed between the first magnet and the second magnet, wherein the work done is transmitted to an external battery for storage.
A magnetic power generator, comprising:
- a first magnet slidable between proximate a first position and a second position;
- a first spring, coupled to the first magnet;
- a second magnet slidable between proximate the first position and a third position;
- a second spring, coupled to the second magnet;
- wherein, when the first magnet and the second magnet are proximate the first position, the magnets exert a repelling force on each other, wherein work is done by at least one dielectric elastomer cushion disposed between the first magnet and the second magnet, wherein the work done is transmitted to an external battery for storage.
