Title: Magnetically actuated reciprocating motor and process using reverse magnetic switching
Inventor: GOSVENER KENDALL C
IPC: H02K7/06
Filed: 2011-07-06
Abstract: A magnetically actuated reciprocating motor utilizes the stored energy of permanent magnets and an electromagnetic field to reciprocally drive a magnetic actuator. A converting mechanism converts reciprocating motion of the magnetic actuator to rotary motion for powering a work object. A solenoid, comprising a nonferromagnetic spool having a tubular center section with a coil of wire wrapped around the center section, is connected to a source of power and a switching mechanism. The magnetic actuator has permanent magnets disposed inside a tubular shaft at each end thereof. The switching mechanism switches the magnetic polarity at the ends of the solenoid to alternatively repel and attract the permanent magnets. The shaft is reciprocatively received through the center section of the solenoid. A controlling mechanism interconnects an output shaft, rotatably powered by the magnetic actuator, and the switching mechanism to switch the polarity of the solenoid to drive the magnetic actuator.
