US Patent 10110109 Self-powered alternative energy machine to generate electricity

An alternative energy generating apparatus is provided. The apparatus comprises a stationary metal coil or coils positioned by, above, below, or beside a magnet or a rotor of magnets with one or more imbedded magnets (e.g., rare earth magnets). Magnets may be imbedded along an outer part of a disc-like rotor. The one or more coils may be held in a coil plate apparatus, essentially parallel to the magnet rotor. The provided apparatus further comprises a shaft having a gear ratio for turning the rotor of magnets, such as by hand or by a motor in order to achieve a high turning velocity. The magnets generate an electromagnetic field, which when rotated against the stationary metal coils, produce an electric current.
