Magnetic perpetual motion machine: truth or myth, possibilities and prospects, do-it-yourself linear motion machine

Dreams of a perpetual motion machine have haunted people for hundreds of years. This issue has become especially acute now, when the world is seriously concerned about the impending energy crisis. Whether it comes or not is a different question, but it can only be said unequivocally that regardless of this humanity needs solutions to the energy problem and the search for alternative sources energy.

What is a magnetic motor

In the scientific world, perpetual motion machines are divided into two groups: the first and the second type. And if everything is relatively clear with the former - it is rather an element of fantastic works, then the latter is very real. To begin with, the first type of engine is a kind of utopian thing that can extract energy from nothing. But the second type is based on very real things. This is an attempt to extract and use the energy of everything that surrounds us: the sun, water, wind and, of course, the magnetic field.

Many scientists from different countries and in different eras have tried not only to explain the possibilities of magnetic fields, but also to realize a kind of perpetual motion machine, working at the expense of these very fields. Interestingly, many of them have achieved quite impressive results in this area. Such names as Nikola Tesla, Vasily Shkondin, Nikolay Lazarev are well known not only in a narrow circle of specialists and adherents of creating a perpetual motion machine.

Of particular interest to them were permanent magnets capable of renewing energy from the world ether. Of course, no one on Earth has yet been able to prove anything significant, but thanks to the study of the nature of constant magnets, mankind has a real chance to come closer to using a colossal source of energy in the form of permanent magnets.

And although the magnetic topic is still far from complete study, there are many inventions, theories and scientifically based hypotheses regarding a perpetual motion machine. That being said, there are quite a few impressive devices passed off as such. The very same motor on magnets already exists for itself, although not in the form in which we would like, because after some time the magnets still lose their magnetic properties. But, despite the laws of physics, scientists were able to create something reliable that works due to the energy generated by magnetic fields.

Today there are several types of linear motors that differ in their structure and technology, but they work on the same principles. These include:

1. Working exclusively due to the action of magnetic fields, without control devices and without external energy consumption;
2. Impulse action, which already have both control devices and an additional power source;
3. Devices that combine the principles of operation of both engines.

Magnetic motor device

Of course, devices with permanent magnets have nothing to do with the electric motor we are used to. If in the second movement occurs due to electric current, then magnetic, as is clear, works exclusively due to the constant energy of the magnets. It consists of three main parts:

• The engine itself;
• Stator with an electromagnet;
• Rotor with installed permanent magnet.

An electromechanical generator is installed on one shaft with the engine. A static electromagnet made in the form of an annular magnetic circuit with a cut-out segment or arc complements this design. The electromagnet itself is additionally equipped with an inductor. An electronic switch is connected to the coil, due to which the reverse current is supplied. It is he who provides the regulation of all processes.

Principle of operation

Since the model of a perpetual magnetic engine, the operation of which is based on the magnetic properties of the material, is far from the only one of its kind, the principle of operation of different engines may differ. Although it uses, of course, the properties of permanent magnets.

The Lorentz antigravitational unit can be distinguished from the simplest ones. How it works consists of two disks of different charge, connected to a power source. The discs are placed halfway into a hemispherical screen. Then they begin to rotate. The magnetic field is easily pushed out by such a superconductor.

The simplest induction motor on a magnetic field was invented by Tesla. Its work is based on the rotation of the magnetic field, which produces electrical energy from it. One metal plate is placed in the ground, the other above it. A wire passed through the plate is connected to one side of the capacitor, and a conductor from the base of the plate is connected to the other. The opposite pole of the capacitor is connected to ground and acts as a reservoir for negatively charged charges.

The only working perpetual motion machine is Lazarev's rotor ring. It is extremely simple in structure and realizable at home with your own hands. It looks like a container divided into two parts by a porous partition. A tube is built into the partition itself, and the container is filled with liquid. It is preferable to use a highly volatile liquid like gasoline, but plain water is also acceptable.

With the help of the baffle, the liquid enters the lower part of the container and is squeezed up by pressure through the tube. By itself, the device realizes only perpetual motion. But in order for this to become a perpetual motion machine, it is necessary to install a wheel with blades on which magnets will be located under the liquid dripping from the tube. As a result, the resulting magnetic field will rotate the wheel faster and faster, as a result of which the fluid flow will accelerate and the magnetic field will become constant.

But the Shkodin linear motor made a really tangible leap in progress. This design is extremely simple technically, but at the same time has high power and productivity. Such an "engine" is also called a "wheel in a wheel". It is already used in transport today. There are two coils here, inside of which there are two more coils. Thus, a double pair with different magnetic fields is formed. Due to this, they are repelled in different directions. A similar device can be purchased today. They are often used on bicycles and wheelchairs.

The Perendev engine runs only on magnets. It uses two circles, one static and the other dynamic. Magnets are located on them in an equal sequence. Due to self-repulsion, the inner wheel can rotate endlessly.

Another modern invention that has found application is the Minato wheel. This is a device on the magnetic field of the Japanese inventor Kohei Minato, which is widely used in various mechanisms.

The main advantages of this invention are efficiency and noiselessness. It is also simple: magnets are located on the rotor at different angles to the axis. A powerful impulse to the stator creates a so-called “collapse point”, and stabilizers balance the rotation of the rotor. The magnetic motor of the Japanese inventor, whose circuit is extremely simple, works without generating heat, that predicts a great future for him not only in mechanics, but also in electronics.

There are other permanent magnet devices like Minato's wheel. There are a lot of them and each of them is unique and interesting in its own way. However, they are just beginning their development and are in a constant stage of development and improvement.

DIY linear motor

Of course, such a fascinating and mysterious sphere as magnetic perpetual motion machines cannot be of interest only to scientists. Many hobbyists are also contributing to the development of this industry. But here the question is rather whether it is possible to make a magnetic motor with your own hands, without having any special knowledge.

The simplest specimen, which has been assembled more than once by amateurs, looks like three tightly connected between a shaft, one of which (central) is rotated directly relative to the other two, located along sides. Attached to the middle of the central shaft is a 4-inch diameter lucite (acrylic) disc. On the other two shafts install similar disks, but half the size. Magnets are also installed here: 4 on the sides and 8 in the middle. To speed up the system better, you can use an aluminum block as a base.

Pros and cons of magnetic motors

Pros:

• Economy and full autonomy;
• The ability to assemble an engine from available tools;
• The device on neodymium magnets is powerful enough to provide energy of 10 kW and more to a residential building;
• Capable of delivering maximum power at any stage of wear.

Minuses:

• The negative impact of magnetic fields on a person;
• Most of the specimens cannot work under normal conditions yet. But this is a matter of time;
• Difficulties in connecting even ready-made samples;
• Modern magnetic impulse motors are quite expensive.

Magnetic linear motors have become a reality today and have every chance to replace the usual motors of other types. But today it is not yet a completely refined and ideal product that can compete in the market, but has rather high trends.
