Pietrus Peregrinus, in 1269, was a French officer in the crusades,
|
|
as well as an inventor whose discoveries have changed the world. It
|
|
was he who first discovered the "pole" relationships of magnets, and
|
|
his "north" - "south" nomenclatures remain to this day. He also
|
|
invented the first graduated and calibrated compass, with which
|
|
others went about discovering the rest of the world.
|
|
|
|
Peregrinus also is believed to have invented the first magnet motor,
|
|
consisting of 17 magnets, and three wheels connected to three gears.
|
|
The simplicity of the design belies the inventor's understanding of
|
|
both the mechanical and magnetic principles involved.
|
|
|
|
Using the gear configuration shown, the naturally occuring magnetic
|
|
oscillations are damped by the counter-rotation of the large wheel.
|
|
|
|
This permitted the wheels to rotate smoothly. A single "unbalancer"
|
|
magnet is used to start the rotation, and to continue rotating the
|
|
wheels at the resonant frequency of the aggregate mass.
|
|
|
|
I would guess that the speed of the rotation would depend upon the
|
|
strength relative to the weight of the disks and the friction of the
|
|
gears. Torque would depend upon the number of "unbalancers", as
|
|
well as their positioning in the magnetic fields.
|
|
|
|
This design was translated into English in 1954, and built. After
|
|
it was proven to work, it was disassembled and destroyed. However,
|
|
the English translations are still available at the New York City
|
|
Public Library. Enjoy!
