Abstract:
1. An electricity-transport system comprising: an energy-producer device having a first active electrode, a first passive electrode, and a generator connected on a first side thereof to the first active electrode and on a second side thereof to the first passive electrode such that said first active electrode and said first passive electrode are subjected to a varying potential difference; and an energy-consumer device having a second active electrode, a second passive electrode, and a load connected on a first side thereof to said second active electrode and on a second side thereof to said second passive electrode wherein the energy-producer device and the energy-consumer device being disposed relative to one another such that the first active electrode of the energy-producer device and the second active electrode of the energy-consumer device face each other across a space, and there is a direct capacitive coupling between the first and second active electrodes across said space, the first and second active electrodes are substantially parallel to each other, the first and second passive electrodes are substantially parallel to each other and spaced apart farther than the active electrodes are spaced apart; and the generator is configured to subject the first active electrode to a first potential, subject the second active electrode to said first potential by said direct capacitive coupling, and subject the first and second passive electrodes to a second potential lower than the first potential such that electricity is transported between the first active electrode and the second active electrode using electrical influence that does not contain electromagnetic waves.
