Abstract:
An apparatus for generating electrical currents comprising: a first cylindrical magnetic dipole having a first end with a magnetic-north pole and an opposed second end with a magnetic-south pole, wherein the diameter of said first end is greater than the diameter of said second end, a second cylindrical magnetic dipole having a first end with a magnetic-north pole and an opposed second end with a magnetic-south pole, wherein the diameter of said first end is greater than the diameter of said second end, a non-magnetic cylindrical spacer connecting said second end of said first dipole to said second end of said second dipole along their respective axis, to form a piston having the diameter of its ends greater than the mid-portion thereof, a circular, conducting band coil that encircles said piston, said coil having an inner diameter greater than the diameter of said second ends of said first and second dipoles and said coil having an inner diameter less than the diameter of said first ends of said dipoles, and said coil having an outer diameter greater than the diameter of said first ends of said dipoles, a reciprocating means for moving said piston in a back and forth motion such that said piston travels back and forth relative to said coil, an electrical current created when said piston travels back and forth in relation to said coil, and an electrical energy output means attached to said coil.
