"Pure steel was used as a magnetic material. The magnetic material was
|
|
30 mm in thickness and formed to have magnetic teeth of 218 mm diameter
|
|
and notches of 158 mm diameter. A ferritic magnet was used as a permanent
|
|
magnet. The magnetic force of the magnet was 1,000 gauss.
|
|
|
|
Electric power of 19.55 Watts was applied to the electromagnets at 17
|
|
volts and 1.15 amperes. Under the above condition,
|
|
|
|
a rotational number of 100 rpm,
|
|
a torque of 60.52 Kg-cm and
|
|
an output of 62.16 watt were obtained."

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
|
|
|
|
This invention relates to a motive power generating device in which
|
|
electromagnets and a combination of a magnetic material and a permanent magnet
|
|
are used as a stator and a rotator respectively.
|
|
|
|
More particularly, the invention relates to a motive power generating device
|
|
which transforms magnetic energy into operative energy with maximum efficiency
|
|
utilizing a magnetic force inherent in a permanent magnet as an energy source.
|
|
|
|
Heretofore, it has been known in the art that a motive power generating device
|
|
in which electromagnets and a combination of a magnetic material, such as soft
|
|
steel, and a permanent magnet are used as a stator and a rotator,
|
|
respectively. Such a device includes, for example, a step motor of a HB
|
|
(Hybrid) type......
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
|
|
|
|
Accordingly, it is an object of the inverntion to provide a motive power
|
|
generation device in which the occurrence of a force acting in a direction
|
|
opposite to the direction of movement of a rotor and/or a stator is prevented,
|
|
so as to permit efficient use of electric energy to be applied to
|
|
electromagnets, as well as magnetic energy generated by a permanent magnet.
|
|
|
|
In order to achieve the above object, the first invention comprises a
|
|
permanent magnet disposed around a rotational output shaft for rotation
|
|
therewith, the output shaft being mounted on a support member for rotation, a
|
|
magnetic body disposed in concentric relationship with the permanent magnet
|
|
for rotation with the rotational output shaft, the magnetic body being
|
|
subjected to the magnetic flux of the permanent magnet, a plurality of
|
|
electromagnets fixedly mounted to the support member in such a manner that
|
|
they are spaced a predetermined distance around the periphery of the magnetic
|
|
material, each magnetic circuit of the electromagnets being adapted to be
|
|
independent of one another and the excitation change-over means of the
|
|
electromagnets, the excitation change-over means being adapted to sequentially
|
|
magnetize one of the electromagnets which is positioned forwardly with regard
|
|
to a rotational direction of the rotational output shaft, so as to impart to
|
|
the electromagnet a magnetic polarity magnetically opposite to that of the
|
|
magnetic pole of the permanent magnet, whereby a magnetic flux passing through
|
|
the magnetic body converges in one direction thereby applying a rotational
|
|
torque to the rotational output shaft.
|
|
|
|
According to the first invention, when one of the electromagnets which is
|
|
positioned forwardly in the rotational direction of the rotational ouput
|
|
shaft, a magnetic field created by the excited electromagnet and a magnetic
|
|
field created by the permanent magnet interact with each other.
|
|
|
|
Thus, the magnetic flux passing through the magnetic body converges toward the
|
|
excited electromagnet, so as to rotate the rotational output shaft by a
|
|
predetermined angle toward the excited electromagnet.
|
|
|
|
When the rotational output shaft has been rotated by the predetermined angle,
|
|
the above excited electromagnet is de-magnetized, and another electromagnet
|
|
currently positioned forwardly in the rotational direction of the rotational
|
|
output shaft is excited or magnetized.
|
|
|
|
Sequential excitation of the electromagnets in the above manner permits
|
|
rotation of the output shaft in a predetermined direction. In this regard, it
|
|
is noted that the electromagnets are excited to have a magnetic polarity
|
|
opposite to that of the magnetic pole of the permanent magnet and that the
|
|
magnetic circuit of the excited electromagnets is independent from those of
|
|
adjacent electromagnets.
|
|
|
|
Thus, the magnetic flux generated by the excited electromagnet is prevented
|
|
from passing through magnetic circuiits of adjacent electromagnets, which, if
|
|
it occurs, might cause the electromagnets to be magnetized to have the same
|
|
polarity as that of the magnetic pole of the permanent magnet. Accordingly,
|
|
no objectionable force will be generated which might interfere with rotation
|
|
of the output shaft.
|
|
|
|
In order to achieve the above object, the second invention composes a
|
|
permanent magnet mounted on a movable body arranged movably along a linear
|
|
track, a magnetic body mounted on the permanent magnet, the magnetic body
|
|
being subjected to a magnetic flux of the permanent magnet, a plurality of
|
|
electromagnets spaced an appropriate distance along the linear track, said
|
|
electromagnets having respective magnetic circuits which are independent of
|
|
one another and excitation changeover means of the electromagnets, said
|
|
excitation change-over means being adapted to sequentially magnetize one of
|
|
the electromagnets which is positioned forwardly, with respect to the
|
|
direction of movement of the movable body, so as to impart to the excited
|
|
electromagnet a magnetic polarity opposite to that of the magnetic pole of the
|
|
permanent magnet, whereby a magnetic flux passing through the magnetic body
|
|
converges in a predetermined direction so as to cause linear movement of the
|
|
movable body.
|
|
|
|
According to the second invention, when the electromagnet positioned forwardly
|
|
of the forward end of the movable body with regard to the direction of the
|
|
movement of the movable body is excited, a magnetic field generated by the
|
|
excited electromagnet and magnetic field generated by the permanent magnet
|
|
interact with each other.
|
|
|
|
Thus, a magnetic flux passing through the magnetic body converges toward the
|
|
excited electromagnet, so as to displace the movable body a predetermined
|
|
distance toward the excited electromagnet. When the movable body has been
|
|
moved the predetermined distance, the movable body is positioned below the
|
|
above excited electromagnet and another electromagnet is positioned forwardly
|
|
of the forward end of the movable body.
|
|
|
|
When this occurs, excitation of the electromagnet positioned above the movable
|
|
body is interrupted, and excitation of the electromagnet now positioned
|
|
forwardly of the forward end of the movable body is initiated. Sequential
|
|
excitation of the electromagnets in the above manner permits movement of the
|
|
movable body in a predetermined direction.
|
|
|
|
It is noted that no objectionable force which would interfere with movement of
|
|
the movable body is created for the same reason as that explained in relation
|
|
to the first invention.

Kawai insists that a new form of energy has been discovered - as dohis
|
|
colleagues. Dr. Harold Aspden of the United Kingdom writes in the November
|
|
1995 New Energy News;
|
|
|
|
"Those skilled in the design of electric motors will soon become wizards as
|
|
they practice the black art of producing motors which are powered by a
|
|
ghost that pure science does not recognize. It is no longer a question of
|
|
whether or not a motor CAN deliver more mechanical power than it consumes
|
|
as electricity, but rather a question of WHO WILL WIN the race to design
|
|
THE BEST commercial implementation."
