Patent EP-1340309-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SCHROETTER JOHNNES
IPC: H02K49/10
Filed: 2001-11-20
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a device for transmitting force, in particular an impetus, by magnetic interaction. Thereby, a plurality of supports are fitted with one or more magnets and rotatably supported by bearing means. Each support is connected to one or more freewheel means, i.e. freewheeling bearings, so that each support can be put into rotation or motion, about an axis of rotation or along a straight or curved path in only one direction. Also, each support is fitted with one or more individual magnets in a predetermined arrangement. A plurality of such supports are arranged at a distance relative to one another in such a way that an impetus transmitted to a first support is transmitted by this first support to an adjacent second support by magnetic interaction, is transmitted by said second support to the third support adjacent said second support, and so on. It is of importance that the freewheel means make it impossible for a support which has been set in motion to go into reverse and this causes virtually the whole of the impetus to be transmitted to whichever is the next support at the time. Hence a starting impetus, having once been transmitted to the magnetic impetus-transmitting device from an external source of impetus, can be transmitted for long distances with virtually no losses in a similar way to a wave. If the distance is a closed loop, e.g. a circle, the impetus can be maintained for quite long periods.
