Claim:
1. A motor comprising: a frame; a shaft rotatably mounted onto the frame; at least one disc mounted onto the shaft; at least one permanent magnet mounted on the at least one disc off-center from the at least one disc; at least one electromagnet mounted to the frame in rotational magnetic proximity to the at least one permanent magnet, the at least one electromagnet and the at least one permanent magnet being substantially radially equidistant from the shaft; at least one coil mounted to the frame in rotational magnetic proximity to the at least one permanent magnet, the at least one coil and the at least one permanent magnet being substantially radially equidistant from the shaft so that when the at least one disc is rotated, the at least one permanent magnet moves relative to the at least one coil with the result that the at least one coil generates alternating current; a battery connectable to the at least one electromagnet and the at least one coil for energizing the at least one electromagnet and for receiving alternating current from the at least one coil for charging the battery; at least one relay switch coupled between the battery and the at least one electromagnet for controlling the transmission of electrical power between the battery and the at least one electromagnet; at least one sensor coupled to the at least one relay switch for generating a signal to the at least one relay switch to activate electrical power to the at least one electromagnet upon sensing that the at least one permanent magnet is positioned with respect to the at least one electromagnet such that a magnetic force generated by the electromagnet with respect to the at least one permanent magnet would be effective for inducing movement of the permanent magnet and consequent rotation of the at least one disc; a rectifier electrically coupled between the at least one coil and the battery for converting alternating current generated by the at least one coil to direct current for charging the battery; and a rectifier electrically coupled between the at least one coil and a load for converting alternating current generated by the at least one coil to direct current for powering a load.
