Inertia centrifugal propulsion attempt.

Today I present a type of drive that uses inertial forces and centrifugal forces. The idea is not new and from time to time you can come across such solutions on the Internet. This drive consists of a main mass, a guide shaft, a shaft mount and nine ball rolling bearings including two linear bearings, an outer rim and a 230V DC motor. The outer rim is connected to the shaft mount in such a way as to allow the internal components to move in one plane, while providing support for the entire rotor, which is embedded in the rim through ball bearings. The main mass has five bearings, two on each side, in addition, the central guide shaft has a pivot point in its upper part equipped with a ball bearing, which is mounted in the hole in the main mass with its outer shell. The guide shaft is constructed of two bars joined at one end through a shaft passing through the center of the bearing mounted in the main mass. Linear bearings are mounted in the guide shaft mount in the amount of two pieces in the holes in this mount and rotate together with this mounting, providing an essential sliding element for the guide shaft. Of course, this system will be connected to the same systems with the opposite direction of rotation of the rotor. The system is scalable and can be built at any scale without losing its driving qualities. However, the functionality of such devices may be compromised due to eccentricity, which can cause vibrations. Similar solutions were presented by inventor Steven Hampton in the eighties, and the videos are still available today on his YouTube channel.

Inertial propulsion with conical weights.

Roy Thornson has invented inertial propulsion with two weights rotating on inner static gears. Those weights were mounted on the same gear in dimension and the gear with the weights were rotating on the circumference of the static gears, which were inside. In some analyses there was indicated that Thornson drive is working correctly and there were experiments with this drive based on mounting a propulsion unit on a bout in swimming pool. Analyses and experiments have clearly indicated that propulsions are effective. I've decided to visualize the principle of working of this propulsion and I have made some animations on 3D software. This simple principle of operation is based on applying synchronization of rotating gears in this way that the weight attached to one gear is hidden on bottom side and is simultaneously extending toward the outside on top part of the device. Such a behavior of mechanism is based on proper application of gears and creating the proper distance between main shaft and dimension of the caring rotor, thus the weight can pass inside two free spaces in this rotor rotating on its own axis of rotation. The weight is mounted on roller or ball bearings also the main shaft is mounted on the bearings. Additionally in the static gear there is a hole through entire thickness of external casing making available of passing the part of the main shaft from the inside to the external ball bearings holder. The static gear is attached to external rim so it can't rotate. If the system would be not balanced it can generate a lot of vibration due to not balanced centrifugal force at one side of of the device, so the masses are placed symmetrically in number of four and additionally are paired with counter rotating second rotor. The whole system is powered by two electric motors but it can be also powered by one motor with gear system to decrease the total mass of the system. The side centrifugal forces will be cancelled by self-balancing of the system due to system is paired.

Sling inertial system mechanism.

Sling inertial propulsion system. The system consists of movable double mass with linear gear color blue, one gear with additional servo motor ( not shown on the pictures) color red, one holder with ball bearings and external casing. This system has an ability to regulate of the disproportion of masses and this means that proper impuls can be regulated by electronic control by the use of servo motor. The servo motor is rotating inside the external casing which is also a stand for entire system. In assumption the unbalanced centrifugal forces should displace the device forward in the direction of green arrow. The unbalanced forces will be generated by changing the length of the movable arm on the forward direction. When the arm is at vertical orientation it is not generating centrifugal force due to equality of length and the distance of mass from the center of rotation. The electric motor is delivering required power to the system.. The external casing should be large allowing the arm to pass inside its interior.

Fields of research.

 1. Inertial propulsion with application of centrifugal force.

The main field of research of IPR Laboratory is developing inertial propulsion. We have conducted couple of interesting experiments with inertia and centrifugal force.

Inertial propulsion in standard physicists and physic approach is still hypothetical kind of propulsion, however we are considering inertial propulsion as a possible way of future transport in outer space conditions. We are determined to provide our projects in reality despite of limited funds available for our enterprise and lack of interest from the side of better situated entrepreneurs and institutions.  We understand that with available nowadays means of transport humankind won’t be able to obtain any greater success in exploration of the universe neither the success on home planet. The limitation of fuel is providing on our planet continuous problem with environment and its ecology, but also application of burning fuel is connected with simultaneous endless hunger for fuels, that is getting stronger day by day. The main problem in the rocket propulsion is the lack of separation of propulsive factor from the fuel, what is making a lot of problems due to we can’t avoid loss of propulsive factor from the capacity of the vehicles. In inertial propulsion assumptions, which we believe these are not only assumptions, this problem is not present.

2. Inertial systems based on liquids.

Inertial systems based on liquids are also our technological goals and we have done several analysis and documentation about this.

3. Electronics.

We will be developing also electronics for inertially propelled drones and we are going to do some coding work for this aim, mainly in programming of Arduino board and some additional electronics. 

4. Free-energy systems.

Generation electric energy from pure magnetism like in it is H. Coler device case.

4.2. Inertial centrifugal electricity flywheel generator.

Inertial electricity generator based on centrifugal force acting on heavy steel rollers moving along and inside the external rim of special electricity permanent magnets and copper coils systems to obtaining electricity from electromagnetic induction. The electricity electromagnetic generators are located on circular track and are placed in external rim. They have two parts, and each have one compressive spring. The spring is used to actuating the position of the inside element after it is pushed inside external coil element. The system is equipped in six heavy rollers which are performing rotations inside the external rim and simultaneously performing rotations around their own axis, and they are mounted on ball bearings. The system is additionally equipped in DC generator and heavy flywheel. If the system is to undertake the work, the preliminary start-up should be done by delivering the electric energy from external sources like battery or solar energy. Once the system starts to work it should continue the work even if external power is off. Then one can connect external receivers to the system and the device should continue normal work. The system is energetically closed there is no need to deliver external energy to keep the device running.

5. New railway methods.

We are working also on ferromagnetic linear synchronous motor (FLSM linear engine) for railway applications and we will be able soon to build short miniature prototype circular or linear track for this purpose.

5.2. Electromagnetic thermal railway system (ETRS).

Thermal electromagnetic propulsion is based on thermal expansion of materials like metals. In the process the electromagnetic energy is changed to work - kinetic energy to propel vehicles with application of untypical guideway the vehicle is moving ahead. This internal energy is coming from the atomic structure of metallic solids medium. After delivering the heat energy to the atoms in solids atoms start to increase external dimensions of its structure. Obtained in that way changes in geometric dimensions are predicted to give away mechanical energy with the application of precisely setting of double surfaces. Thermal energy is directly converted into mechanical energy in this case. 

6. Space transport.

6.1. Centrifugal inertia rotary axial propulsion (CIRAP drive).

Some work are in very advanced state like it is in the case of centrifugal inertia rotary axial propulsion (CIRAP drive). 

6.2. Magnetic jolt propulsion (MJP)

This inertial-magnetic system, if synchronized, would experience vibrations in two directions: forward - backward or up - down. However, the use of a copper or aluminum or silver pipe would allow for the creation of a predominance of a force directed forward or upward. The inertial force resulting from the fact of the rotation of the solid body in a circle would be joined by the magnetic force generated during the passage of the magnet - the cart through the center of this copper pipe. During the passage of a strong permanent magnet in the pipe, the electrons from the copper pipe are pushed upwards but have no way to escape, so they interfere with the magnetic field from the neodymium magnet and cause its passage through itself to slow down. When the magnet leaves the pipe, the pipe will try to follow the magnet due to the existence of free electrons in the pipe, this effect will cause one side of the device to rise, which will also occur on the other side because the system is duplicated, and it would be best if it consisted of three such generators. The problem is the intense vibrations into which the system will fall. However, it is assumed that at high speeds the system will behave more stably, and the force from the magnetic carriage passing through the copper pipe will be crucial to the operation of the device, which should lose weight as the device's speed increases. For better operation of the device, the generators should be tilted 23 degrees from the vertical with the upper pole of the axis pointing outwards. In this way, the device would gain stability if it were to be located above the level of the starting plane. The system could also be powered by compressed air from a compressor, rather than using electromagnets, but here I used electromagnets, but the use of compressed air would be an even better solution for several reasons, but it would require the use of a slightly different construction of the channels in which the carriages rotate.

6.3. Lorentz force application. 

Laboratory is also making serious leap in application of Lorentz force and its amplification for transport purposes. 

6.4. Magnetostriction inertial drive.

6.5.  Simple magnetically controlled inertial propulsion device.

Magnetically controlled inertial system for propulsion with application of two independent weights. System can to work both on magnetic repulsion and attraction with relation to the side of device in vertical plane. The main shaft is sliding in slightly larger pipe which is conjoined with cross - shaft which is connected to external holder - ring on ball bearings. Simultaneously both electromagnets are powered by external source of current, so they working on repulsion or attraction in pairs - two are in rotating weights and two are joined with larger lubricated pipe. During one pair of electromagnet are working on repulsion another is working on attraction, so the magnetic impulse is every time strong allowing for fast rotating and compensating strong centrifugal forces. The rotating weights are partially hollow inside where part of central shaft can hide deeper or shallower. Every of electromagnets have holes inside in which the main shaft can reciprocate. Entire system is powered by electric motor mounted to cross - shaft from one of the sides.

Theory and history of inertial propulsion.

Inertial propulsion is propellant-less and reactionless propulsion kind based on rotation of mass, which are generating centrifugal forces or inertial force impulses. Inertial propulsion often is manipulating inertia allowing the system to gain speed in linear motion by use of power from electric motors. Most popular type of inertial propulsion are the telescopic arms guided ex-centered mass systems here with calculation of point centrifugal force acting in highest and lowest side of the device.

Inertial manipulation is based on synchronous movement of ex-centered mass:

Unpaired rotation of ex-center mass.

Paired synchronized rotation of ex-centered mass.

3D inertial mechanism

Equivalence of mass and energy. Velocity multiplied by mass is equal force. Ten kilograms weight is equal to 5 kilograms in gravity field and will be weight the same if 5 kg disc will be rotating with appropriate velocity in one direction.

Inertial propulsion was known already in Nicola Tesla’s times. He was also interested about inertial propulsion and he is known for invention known as Flying Stove. Some later works was prepared by Russian inventor Tolchin and they was based on non-constant speed of oppositely rotating masses on circular track. System has special mechanism for diversification of speed of rotation in relation of the side of the vehicle. The speed of rotation was faster in front of the device and slower in rear side of the device, so the centrifugal force is greater on front side of the device.

Tolchin vehicle with inertial propulsion

One of the most famous inertial propulsion method was invented by Norman Lorimer Dean. His invention was based on application of magnetic coil and magnetic core passing through the coil, when doubled ex-centered masses was synchronized to two-directional movement. 

Some time ago there was on YouTube a man called Mike Marsden. There was a time when he was posting on his channel on YouTube his invention called MAC-QUAN 1 and MAC-QUAN 2. After this time he vanished entirely from internet.

His invention is revolutionary and stands for most incredible inertial propulsion ever invented available in latest times. The inertial thruster is capable of flying harnessing only inertial forces. Here on the picture is tethered levitation of the device and this is indicating that inertial propulsion can be efficient and sufficient for practical usage. 

Sandy Kidd is an inventor who was experimenting with gyroscopes as a inertial propulsion. He has noticed that doubled gyroscope when rotate around the same axis has tendency to create lift by use of special propulsion mechanism which he has invented.

Henry Bull was a inventor of Impulse reaction engine a type of inertial propulsion using movable weights and electromagnets. He confirmed his assumption experimentally in 1935.  In this propulsion two masses are moving along cylinder. The difference in location springs, where on upper side there is spring and on the bottom side is no spring, additional spring is in the middle. When masses are reaching their ends, one of masses is reaching its end by impact and one is reaching its end by elastic bounce through the spring what makes more inertial forces due to longer time of impact.

One stick inertial propulsion trial.

 This experiment was performed several years ago. In assumption this experiment has to show the operation of one of the simplest inertial propulsion method ever existed. The external casing is made from mustard jar lid, so it is quite primitive casing (no CNC machining). The rotor is made from a piece of steel calibrated roller from desktop printer. The DC motor had too low RPM for good working of the device, the lid had to big diameter and the rod was to long for a proper operation. Nevertheless, the whole device was able to jumping, swinging on its sides and turning around, but never to go in one direction as it was assumed. Additionally the experimental device was bounded by attached wires which were delivering the current to the DC motor, so it can’t move freely. And now, I am going to explain how the device was to operate in assumption. The secret of operation was based on ex-centrally located point of rotation of the steel rod. This should sustain creation of unbalanced centrifugal force acting on the more extending part of the rod, while less centrifugal force should be created on shorter end of the rod on every turn on the rotor. However the rotor had too much friction and for that reason the weak DC motor was not able to propel it faster as it was assumed and for the aim to decrease vibration and noise. At the end the rotor separated from the motor shaft due to failure of montage. 

Centrifugal force inertial electricity magnetic generator.

Centrifugal force can be useful for generating electricity. Here is centrifugal force harnessing electric and permanent magnets generator for obtaining electricity by use of coils (color orange) and magnets (color red and blue). The coils will be gathering and sending electric current due to magnetic field displacement inside them. When the rotor is rotating in one direction, each of three weights which have an ability to move slightly outward will be pushing on each ball bearings which is mounted on the top of coil and magnets with spring systems pushing by a centrifugal force. The gaps between rotor's three arm are allowing the magnets to return to their primary positions, so electric energy is generated in two situations: when the ball bearings are pushed into the holes created by use of toroidal coils and when the springs are released because of canceling of force coming from the weights of the three rotor system. Each weight is rounded a little more for allowing the front of the weight enter on the ball bearings. System can rotate in one direction for that reason. The most centrally located part of rotor in color green on the picture is connected to the shaft of the electric motor. The electric motor is powered by the same energy which is created in this generator, because the coils are connected in parallel. The faster the rotor is rotating more energy should be generated. The permanent magnets are polarized all the same with respect to the center of the device the south poles to the outside and north poles oriented to the center, however they can be polarized also oppositely.  

Magnetic and inertial machine type 2

I have imagined a magnetic machine based on magnetic repulsion of permanent magnets and heavy flywheel. This is reciprocating machine with a simple mechanism. When the upper permanent magnet is approaching to the magnets mounted in the flywheel in vertical plane, it is polarized on repulsion and it makes the wheel to move in one side because the wheel is synchronized with a little displacement according to the axis of both magnets to the position of flywheel magnets so the movement is performed only in one direction as the wheel is turning. When the magnets are close, they will repel themselves and when the magnets are far away from each other the system is running inertially. The faster the wheel is turning the faster the reciprocating movement is performed thanks to ex-centered movement of centrally located shaft with smaller double flywheel. All is placed on ball bearings. The pistons in upper side of the device are moving along upper cylinders up and down as the wheel is rotating forcing them to that reaction by use of connecting rods. The energy obtained from only permanent magnets is transmitted to external receivers by use of gears and chains. It could be generators for obtaining electricity. Bellow pictures are only for showing the operation principle and are not executive drawings.
